2-dimensional (2D) dopant profiling in semiconductor device was carried out by electron holography and scanning capacitance microscopy methods with the same multi-layered p-n junction sample. The dopant profiles obtained from two methods are in good agreement with each other. It demonstrates that reliability of dopant profile measurement can be increased through precise comparison of 2D profiles obtained from various techniques.

Detailed comparison of low-voltage scanning electron microscopy and electron holography techniques for two-dimensional (2D) dopant profiling was carried out with using the same multilayered p-n junction specimen. The dopant profiles obtained from two methods are in good agreement with each other. It demonstrates that reliability of dopant profile measurement can be increased through precise comparison of 2D profiles obtained from various microscopic techniques.

n-type PERT (passivated emitter, rear totally diffused) bifacial solar cells with boron and phosphorus diffusion as p+ emitter and n+ BSF (back surface field) have attracted significant research interest recently. In this work, the influences of wafer thickness, bulk lifetime, emitter, BSF on the photovoltaic characteristics of solar cells are discussed. The performance of the solar cell is determined by using one-dimensional solar cell simulation software PC1D. The simulation results show that the key role of the BSF is to decrease the surface doping concentration reducing the recombination and thus, increasing the cell efficiency. A lightly phosphorus doped BSF (LD BSF) was experimentally optimized to get low surface dopant concentration for n type bifacial solar cells. Pre-oxidation combined with a multi-plateau drive-in, using limited source diffusion was carried out before pre-deposition. It could reduce the surface dopant concentration with minimal impact on the sheet resistance.

본 논문에서는 본 연구진이 개발 중인 INPROS 3차원 반도체 공정 시뮬레이터 시스템에 이온주입된 불순물의 과도 확산(TED, transient enhanced diffusion) 기능을 첨가하여 수행한 계산 결과를 발표한다. 실리콘 내부에 이온주입된 불순물의 재분포를 시뮬레이션하기 위하여, 먼저 몬테카를로 방법으로 이온주입 공정을 수행하였고, 유한요소법을 이용하여 확산 공정을 수행하였다. 저온 열처리 공정에서의 붕소의 과도 확산을 확인하기 위하여, 에피 성장된 붕소 에피층에 비소와 인을 이온 주입시킨 후, 750℃의 저온에서 2시간 동안 열처리 공정을 수행하였다. 3차원 INPROS 시뮬레이터의 결과와 실험적으로 측정한 SIMS 데이터와 그 결과가 일치함을 확인하였다. INPROS의 점결함 의존성 과도 증속 확산 모델과 소자 시뮬레이터인 PISCES를 이용하여 역 단채널 길이 효과(RSCE, reverse short channel effect)를 시뮬레이션하였다.
