A study on the electrical activation of ion mass doped phosphorous on silicon films

실리콘 박막에서 이온 질량 도핑에 의해 주입된 인의 전기적 활성화에 관한 연구

Phosphorous was deped in silicon thin films by Ion Mass Doping and Changes in the electrical resistance with respect tko heat treatments were investigated. SOI(Silicon On Insulator) thin films which contain few grain boundaries prepared by ZMR(Zone Melting Recrystallization) of polysilicon films, polysilicon films which have about 1500 $A^{\rarw}$ of grain size prepared by LPCVD at 625.deg. C, and amorphous silicon thin films prepared by LPCVD at low temperature were used as substrates and thermal behavior of phosphorous after RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing) and furnace annealing was carefully studied. Amorphous thin films showed about 10$^{6}$ .OMEGA./ㅁbefore any heat treatment, while polycrystalline and SOI films about 10$^{3}$.OMEGA./¤. All these films, however, showed about 10.OMEGA./ㅁafter furnace annealing at 700.deg. C for 3hrs and RTA showed about the same trend. Films with grain boundaries showed a certain range of heat treatment which rendered increase of the electrical resistance upon annealing, which could not be observed in amorphous films and segregation of doped phosphorous by diffusion with annealing was thought to be responsible for this abnormal behavior.
