Various silicon films were prepared by thermal- and UV photo-CVD processes. The reactants were SiH4, Si2H6, SiH2F2, SIF4, and H2. Silicon films grown at temperatures below $500 ^{\circ}C$ were either amorphous or crystalline depending on the process conditions, and the growth rates ranged between 5 and $80\AA$min. Crystallinity of the film was improved even at $250^{\circ}C$ when the film was grown by photo-CVD using fluoro-silanes as the reactants. Analysis of the film by RBS, SIMS, XRD, and ex-situ IR indicated that substrate surface was contaminated by oxygen and other impurities when the reactants contained neither hydrogen nor fluoro-silnanes, but when fluoro-silanes were used as reactants the silicon film was highly crystalline.

We studied the epitaxial growth of GaAs/GaAs and GaAs/Si by Laser CVD with 193nm ArF pulsed excimer laser. The source gases of TMGa and AsC13 or TMGa-TMAs adducts are mixed with H2, and photolyzed above the substrate which is heated up to around 300$^{\circ}C$. Then the photolyzed atoms are deposited on the silicon or GaAs substrate. The deposited films are analyzed with ESKA depth profiling and X-ray differaction method, which shows that the films on Si and GaAs are stoichiometric and crystalized at such a low temperature. We show a clear evidence for the epitaxial growth of GaAs on Si or GaAs on GaAs at low temperature by excimer laser CVD.

Thin Silicon oxynitride(SiON) films have been chemically deposited using 193nm ArF Excimer Laser CVD, with $Si_{2}H_{8}$, $N_{2}O$, and $NH_3$ as the reactive gases and $N_2$ as the carrier gas. Experimental results show that deposition rate and refractive index have a strong dependence on substrate temperature, chamber pressure, gas ratio, laser power and laser beam height. Electrical characterization of oxynitride films demonstrates that for $NH_{3}/N_{2}O$ flow ratios ranging from 0.25 to 1, the leakage currents, the interface trap density and the capacitances (dielect ric constant) increase and the dielectric breakdown fields decrease

Poly-Si films were deposited by Laser CVD using 193nm ArF Excimer Laser from disilane($Si_{2}H_{6}$) and then the films were etched by Laser Etching using the same Laser with SF6 etching gas. Dependence on various film deposition conditions and etching conditions was investigated respectively.

The anneal behavior of ArF excimer Laser CVD SiON films has been studied using FT-IR absorption spectroscopy. The anneal temperature range was $400{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ Abundant hydrogen effusion from thes layers was observed as anneal temperature increased. The coexistence of both Si-H am N-H bonds offers the possibility for cross linking am evidence for the occurrence of cross lingking was found in the IR spectrum. The electrical properties were also obtained that tire films have low leakage currents am good TZDB properties.

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.

$SiO_2$ and SiON films are formed by Laser CVD for inter-level dielectrics in submicron VLSI. This technique is noticeable that film formation can be done at low temperatures, below $300^{\circ}C$ with less damage. An ArF Excimer Laser with wave length of 193nm is used to excite and dissociate reactant gases. After film formation growth rate, refractive index, I-V curve, and step coverage characteristics of the films were evaluated.

Recent VLSI requires materials with high dielectric constant in order to reduce their storage capacitor areas. Thin TaOx film was formed from Ta(OCH3)5 by photo-CVD method at a low temperature. The result shows that the film obtained by photo-CVD method is this study has good step coverage, high dielectric constant (20-25) and low leakage current. The high strong peaks from Ta(4f), Ta(4d), and O(ls) levels were observed by XPS analysis. From the diffraction pattern and TEM prcture analysis, the TaOx thin film was observed to be amorphous. This kind of the deposition method could be considered to be a very promising method applied to VLSI.

Polycrystalline Si films have been used in many applications such as thin film transistors(TFT), image sensors and LSI applications. In this research deposition of Si films at low temperatures with remote plasma enhanced CVD from Si2H6-SiF4-H2 on SiO2 was studied and their crystallinity was investigated. It was condluded that growth of crystalline Si films was favorable with (1) low Si2H6 flow rates, (2) moderate plasma power, (3) moderate SiF4 flow rates, (4) moderate substrate temperature, and (5) suitable method of surface cleaning.
