Abstract
Polysilazane and polymethylsilazane based precursor films were deposited on Si-substrate by spin-coating, subsequently annealed at $150{\sim}850^{\circ}C$, and characterized. Structural analysis, shrink, compositional change, etch rate, and gap-filling were observed. Annealing the precursor films led to formation of spin-on dielectric films. C-containing precursor films showed that less loss of N, H, and C while less gain of O than that of C-free precursor films at $400^{\circ}C$, but more loss of N, H, and C while more gain of O at $850^{\circ}C$. Thus polysilazane based precursor films exhibited less reduction in thickness of 14.5% than silazane based one of 15.6% at $400^{\circ}C$ but more 37.4% than 19.4% at $850^{\circ}C$. FTIR indicated that C induced smaller amount of Si-O bond, non-uniform property, and lower resistance to chemical etching.
