The oxynitride films were photo-chemically deposited by ArF(wave length: 193nm) excimer laser CVD used to excite and dissociate gas phases $Si_2H_6$, $N_2O$, and $NH_3$ molecules. We obtained various electrical properties when we varied wafer cleaning procedures consisted of a conventional RCA and a two-dip step[4]. The results show the films have low leakage currents and good TZDB properties. We also analyzed the composition of the oxynitride films which have homogeneous composition throughout the film.

Improved far field type(improved type) megasonic applicable to the cleaning equipment of single wafer processing type has been developed. In this study, to improve the uniformity of acoustic pressure distribution(APD), we utilize far field with relatively uniform APD, piezoelectric ceramic with a triangle hole in its center to prevent standing wave resulted from radial mode, and reflected wave from the wall of waveguide. On the basis of these methods, two analysis models of improved type were designed to which piezoelectric ceramic of different shape of electrode attached, and APD were analyzed by means of finite element method, and then one of them was selected by analysis results, finally, the selected model was fabricated. Test results show that the fabricated is better in the uniformity of APD than the imported and the conventional, also the fabricated shows high particle removal efficiency of 92.3% using DI water alone as a cleaning solution.

It is very important that constitution of good hetero-junction interface with a high quality amorphous silicon thin films on very cleaned c-Si wafer for making high efficiency hetero-junction solar cells. For achieving the high efficiency solar cells, the inspection and management of c-Si wafer surface conditions are essential subjects. In this experiment, we analyzed the c-Si wafer surface very sensitively using Spectroscopic Ellipsometer for < ${\varepsilon}2$ > and u-PCD for effective carrier life time, so we accomplished < ${\varepsilon}2$ > value 43.02 at 4.25eV by optimizing the cleaning process which is representative of c-Si wafer surface conditions very well. We carried out that the deposition of high quality hydrogenated silicon amorphous thin films by RF-PECVD systems having high density and low crystallinity which are results of effective medium approximation modeling and fitting using spectroscopic ellipsometer. We reached the cell efficiency 12.67% and 14.30% on flat and textured CZ c-Si wafer each under AM1.5G irradiation, adopting the optimized cleaning and deposition conditions that we made. As a result, we confirmed that spectroscopic ellipsometry is very useful analyzing methode for hetero-junction solar cells which need to very thin and high quality multi layer structure.

In this study, the removal of $Si_3N_4$ particles from the surface of a silicon wafer was investigated by using supercritical carbon dioxide, the IPA co-solvent and cleaning additive chemicals. First, the solubility of several surfactants and binders in supercritical carbon dioxide solubility and particle dispersibility in the binders were evaluated in order to confirm their suitability for the supercritical cleaning process. Particle removal experiments were carried out with adjusting various process parameters and reaction conditions. The surfactants used in the experiment showed little particle removal effect, producing secondary contamination on the surface of wafers. On the other hand, 5 wt% (with respect to $scCO_2$) of the cleaning additive mixture of trimethyl phosphate, IPA, and trace HF resulted in 85% of particle removal efficiency after $scCO_2$ flowing for 4 minutes at $50^{\circ}C$, 2000 psi, and the flow rate of $15mL\;min^{-1}$.

저압 기상 영역에서 Anhydrous HF 가스와 Methanol vapor를 사용하는 산화막 식각공정을 수행하기 위하여 (1) 반응기 부피의 최소화, (B) 공정압력의 최소화, (3) 고순도 알루미나 Reactor 적용, (4) Cluster화의 개념을 적용한 VPC 장치를 제작하였다. Wafer의 온도, HF의 분압 및 Working Pressure 등의 공정변수에 따른 Oxide Wafer의 식각특성의 변화를 확인하였다. 또한 Etch Uniformity를 향상시키기 위하여 Shower Head 구조를 변경시켜서 실험하였으며, CFD Simulation을 이용하여 Reactor내에서의 HF gas 및 Methanol vapor의 분율을 예측하였다.
