The monolayer of oxygen atoms sandwiched between the adjacent nanocrystalline silicon layers was formed by ultra high vacuum-chemical vapor deposition (UHV-CVD). This multilayer Si-O structure forms a new type of superlattice, semiconductor-atomic superlattice (SAS). According to the experimental results, high-resolution cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) shows epitaxial system. Also, the current-voltage (Ⅰ-Ⅴ) measurement results show the stable and good insulating behavior with high breakdown voltage. It is apparent that the system may form an epitaxially grown insulating layer as possible replacement of silicon-on-insulator (SOI), a scheme investigated as future generation of high efficient and high density CMOS on SOI.

Crystallographic characteristics and interfacial structures of $Al_2$$O_3$and $ZrO_2$dielectric films prepared by atomic layer chemical vapor deposition (ALCVD) were investigated at atomic scale by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS)/electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) coupled with a field-emission transmission electron microscope. The results obtained from cross-sectional and plan-view specimens showed that the $Al_2$$O_3$film was crystallized by annealing at a high temperature and its crystal system might be evaluated as either cubic or tetragonal phase. Whereas the $ZrO_2$film crystallized during deposition at a low temperature of ∼$300^{\circ}C$ was composed of both tetragonal and monoclinic phase. The interfacial thickness in both films was increased with the increased annealing temperature. Further, the interfacial structures of X$ZrO_2$$O_3$and $ZrO_2$films were discussed through analyses of EDS elemental maps and EELS spectra obtained from the annealed films, respectively.

절연 특성이 기존의 SiO$_2$ 보다 우수한 500 두께의 SiN$_4$층을 두 단결정 실리콘사이의 절연막질로 채택하고 직접접합시켜 직경 10cm의 Si(100) /500 -Si$_3$N$_4$/Si (100) 기판쌍을 제조하였다. p-type (100) 실리콘기판을 친수성, 소수성을 갖도록 습식방법으로 세척한 두 그룹의 시편들을 준비하였다. 기판전면에 LPCVD로 500 $\AA$ 두께의 Si$_3$N$_4$∥Si(100) 기판을 성장시키고 실리론 기판과 고청정상태에서 가접시킨 후, 선형열원의 이동속도를 0.1mm/s로 고정시키고 선형 입열량을 400~1125w 범위에서 변화시키면서 직접접합을 실시하였다. 접합된 기판은 적외선 카메라로 계면 접합면적을 확인하고 razor blade creek opening 측정법으로 세정 방법에 따른 각 기판쌍 그들의 접합강도를 확인하였다. 접합강도가 측정된 기판쌍은 high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM )을 사용하여 수직단면 미세구조를 조사하였다. 입열량의 증가에 따라 두 그를 모두 접합율은 큰 유의차 없이 765% 정도로, 소수성 처리가 된 기판쌍의 접합강도는 1577mJ/$m^2$가지 선형적으로 증가하였으나, 친수성 처리가 된 기판쌍은 주어진 실험 범위에서 입열량의 증가에 따라 큰 변화 없이 2000mj/$m^2$이상의 접합 강도를 보였다 친수성 처리가 된 기판쌍의 수직단면 미세구조를 고분해능 투과전자현미경으로 각인한 결과 모든 시편의 실리콘과 Si$_3$N$_4$사이에 25 $\AA$ 정도의 SiO$_2$ 자연산화막이 존재하여 중간충 역할을 함으로서 기판접합강도를 향상시키는 것으로 판단되었다.
