유기고분자에 대한 건식 식각공정으로 remote 플라즈마를 이용하여 유리 표면에 도포된 PMMA의 식각공정에 관한 연구로 플라즈마 출력, 반응가스, 플라즈마 발생원과의 거리에 대한 식각특성을 측정하였다. 플라즈마 발생원으로부터 멀어질수록 플라즈마에 의해 발생된 라디칼 밀도로 인해 PMMA 식각속도가 감소하였다. 플라즈마 내에서 발생된 라디칼에 의해 PMMA가 제거되며, 플라즈마 출력이 증가할수록 PMMA 표면과 반응하는 라디칼 증가로 식각속도는 선형적으로 증가하였다. 식각 기체에서 산소의 양이 증가함에 따라 식각속도 증가와 더불어 식각표면의 거칠기도 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

원격 수소 플라즈마에 의한 Si 웨이퍼 표면 위의 Cr, Ni 및 Cu불순물의 제거 효과를 조사하였다. Si 웨이퍼를 이 불순물들이 포함되어 있는 아세톤으로 집중적으로 오염시켰으며 최적 공정조건을 결정하기 위해 rf-power와 plasma노출시간을 변화시키면서 실험을 수행하였다. 리모트 수소 플라즈마 세정 후 Si 웨이퍼 표면은 Total X-ray Reflection Fluorescence(TXRF), Surface Photovoltage(SPV) 및 Atomic Forece Microscope(AFM)에 의해 분석되었다. 리모트 수소 플라즈마 세정 후 Cr, Ni 및 Cu불순물의 농도는 감소하였고 소수 전하운반자수명은 전반적으로 증가하였다. 또한 AFM 분석결과 표면 거칠기는 전반적으로 향상되었고 Si 기판에 거의 손상을 주지 않았다. TXRF 분석결과는 리모트 수소 플라즈마 세정이 적절한 공정 조건에서 이루어질 때 금속 오염물의 제거에 아주 효과적임을 보여주었다. 또한, Cr, Ni 및 Cu 불순물의 제거는 $SiO_2$가 제거될 때 $SiO_2$에 묻어 함께 제거되는 이른바 lift-off mechanism에 의한 것으로 사료된다.

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising layered structure materials for next-generation nano electronic devices. Many investigation on the FET device using TMDCs channel material have been performed with some integrated approach. To use TMDCs for channel material of top-gate thin film transistor(TFT), the study on high-k dielectrics on TMDCs is necessary. However, uniform growth of atomic-layer-deposited high-k dielectric film on TMDCs is difficult, owing to the lack of dangling bonds and functional groups on TMDC's basal plane. We demonstrate the effect of remote oxygen plasma pretreatment of large area synthesized few-layer MoSe2 on the growth behavior of Al2O3, which were formed by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using tri-methylaluminum (TMA) metal precursors with water oxidant. We investigated uniformity of Al2O3 by Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Raman features of MoSe2 with remote plasma pretreatment time were obtained to confirm physical plasma damage. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was measured to investigate the reaction between MoSe2 and oxygen atom after the remote O2 plasma pretreatment. Finally, we have uniform Al2O3 thin film on the MoSe2 by remote O2 plasma pretreatment before ALD. This study can provide interfacial engineering process to decrease the leakage current and to improve mobility of top-gate TFT much higher.

Hafnium oxide $(HfO_2)$ films were deposited on Si(100) substrates by remote plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) method at $250^{\circ}C$ using TEMAH [tetrakis(ethylmethylamino)hafnium] and $O_2$ plasma. $(HfO_2)$ films showed a relatively low carbon contamination of about 3 at %. As-deposited and annealed $(HfO_2)$ films showed amorphous and randomly oriented polycrystalline structure. respectively. The interfacial layer of $(HfO_2)$ films deposited using remote PEALD was Hf silicate and its thickness increased with increasing annealing temperature. The hysteresis of $(HfO_2)$ films became lower and the flat band voltages shifted towards the positive direction after annealing. Post-annealing process significantly changed the physical, chemical, and electrical properties of $(HfO_2)$ films. $(HfO_2)$ films deposited by remote PEALD using TEMAH and $O_2$ plasma showed generally improved film qualities compare to those of the films deposited by conventional ALD.

메틸 메타크릴레이트 분자를 전구체로 사용하여 원격 플라즈마 방식으로 중합체를 합성하는 반응에서 플라즈마 출력, 반응 압력 및 직접-간접 플라즈마 방식이 필름의 성장속도 및 화학결합 구조에 미치는 영향을 조사하였으며, FT-IR, XPS 등 분광학적 분석과 Langmvir 탐침을 사용한 플라즈마 특성 진단 결과와 함께 고찰하였다. 플라즈마 출력과 반응 압력이 증가하면 성장속도가 증가하지만 특정 영역을 넘어서면 식각 효과와 잦은 충돌로 인해 활성화 효율이 낮아져 다시 감소하였다. 중합 필름의 FT-IR과 XPS 분석 결과, 필름 내 탄소/산소 조성비는 플라즈마 출력이 커질수록 증가하였으며, 탄화수소성 C-C 탄소 조성비는 증가하는 반면 에스터성 COO 탄소 조성비는 감소하였다. 직접 플라즈마법이 간접 플라즈마법에 비해 필름의 성장속도는 2~5배 빠르지만, 전구체의 분자 구조를 유지하기 위해서는 간접 플라즈마법이 유리함을 확인하였다.

Polymerization of tetraethoxysilane on a glass substrate was investigated by remote microwave plasma using argon with portions of nitrous oxide as carrier gas. Transparent layer like a thickness of 0.5 ${\mu}m$ 3 ${\mu}m$ were obtained, differing in chemical composition, depending on plasma power and treatment time as well as on ageing time. In general the milder the treatment and the shorter the ageing was, the higher was the content of organic structural elements in the layer. We have identified that the chemical structure of our samples composed of mainly Si O and Si C groups containing aliphatics, carbonyl groups. These results were obtained by X ray photon spectroscopy, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscope combined with Energy dispersive X ray spectroscopy.

Direct plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) are widely used for $SiO_2$ and SiON thin film process in current semiconductor industry. However, this exhibits poor step coverage for three-dimensional device structure due directionality of plasma species as well as plasma damage on the substrate. In this study, to overcome this issue, low temperature (< $300^{\circ}C$) $SiO_2$ and SiON thin film processes were studied using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) type remote PEALD with various reactant gases such as $O_2$, $H_2O$, $N_2$ and $NH_3$. It was confirmed that the interfacial properties such as fixed charge density and charge trapping behavior of thin films were considerably improved by hydrogen species in $H_2O$ and $NH_3$ plasma compared to the films grown with $O_2$ and $N_2$ plasma. Furthermore, the leakage current density of the thin films was suppressed for same reason.
