A Study on the $Si_3N_4$ Thin Films Deposited by PECVD for MMIC Capacitor

MMIC Capacitor를 위한 PECVD $Si_3N_4$ 박막에 관한 연구

[ $Si_3N_4$ ] thin film is the good material to fabricate the capacitors at MMIC processes. Normally, $Si_3N_4$ thin films is used to dielectric in the MIM capacitor and film thickness is $2000\;{\AA}$. Insulator(or dielectric) was deposited by PECVD at our MIM structure with air bridge which connect between top metal and contact pad. We optimized PECVD process to fabricate the good capacitors which can be applied at the true MMIC. The thickness of our $Si_3N_4$ thin films was $1000\;{\AA}$ shallower than $2000\;{\AA}$, and their breakdown voltages were above 70V.
