Silicon Tetrafluoride (SiF4) is a dopant gas of choice for different silicon ion implantation processes used in semiconductor device engineering. It is a primary source of atomic dopants like Si and F, and a potential source of molecular dopants (e.g. Si2, SiFx, x=1-3). A significant challenge associated with the use of SiF4 is that it can compromise ion source performance, resulting in poor beam stability and source life. This is primarily the result of the formation of a halogen cycle that takes place due to the presence of fluorine from the SiF4 molecule along with tungsten materials that are present in the ion source (e.g. liners, walls). A second challenge associated with SiF4 can be limited beam current. In order to improve implant tool performance when using SiF4, the following investigations have been performed: (1) Characterization of SiF4 / H2 mixtures: The addition of hydrogen co-gas can effectively mitigate the halogen cycle and improve source performance. Using the magnitude of the resulting WFx peaks as an indicator, the degree to which the halogen cycle is mitigated is shown as a function of H2 flow rate. Also, in that single packages may impart various advantages, SiF4 / H2 co-mixture stability data are provided. (2) Characterization of enriched (en) 28SiF4: The additional enrichment can enable higher beam currents of 28Si+. The effect of En-28SiF4 flow rate on beam current is presented, along with the resulting WFx spectra. (3) Initial observations of SiF3+ beams are provided, along with the potential benefits that may be obtained in selecting this molecular ion.

Ion implant damage to the Si lattice was investigated using ultraviolet (UV) Raman spectroscopy under two UV excitation wavelengths (266.0 and 363.8 nm) with probing depths of ~2 and ~5nm into the surface. Ultra-shallow implantation of B+ and BF2+ ions with and without Ge pre-amorphization implantation (PAI) into 300mm diameter n-type Si(100) wafers were prepared. Raman peak broadening and shape change, corresponding to the degree and depth of ion implantation damage to the Si lattice, were measured. Changes of reflectance spectra in the UV and visible wavelength region caused by the ultra-shallow ion implantation were measured and correlated with Si lattice damage evaluated by UV Raman spectroscopy, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRXTEM). UV Raman spectroscopy is a very promising non-contact Si lattice damage characterization technique for ultra-shallow ion implanted Si and can be used as an in-line damage and electrical activation monitoring technique.

A tandem-type electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion source (ECRIS) has been constructed for synthesizing, extracting, and analyzing ions. The feasibility and realization of the device which has rangy operation window in a single device are investigated to produce many kinds of ion beams like universal source based on ECRIS. The ECR plasmas are considered to be necessary to be available to coexist and to be operated individually with different plasma parameters. Both of analysis of ion beams and investigation of plasma parameters will be conducted on produced plasmas. In this article the experimental study concentrates on improvement of producing and extracting multicharged ion beams from the second stage of the tandem-type ECRIS under lower magnetic mirror field with octupole magnets. The assembly of the extractor is modified and their positions, gap, and potentials are investigated against each ion spices. We succeeded in producing, extracting multicharged ion currents and improving ion extraction, while the magnetic field is about 60% of the previous magnetic field strength. We will present obtained evidences experimentally in detail.

One of the challenges for bulk-Si FinFET is forming the junction isolation at the 14nm node and beyond. As the fins are scaled, source-drain punch-through can occur, which causes large leakage currents. A punch-through stop (PTS) layer/structure at the bottom of the fin is introduced to suppress this sub-fin leakage current. However, the introduction of PTS may result in dopant back diffusion into the active fin region from the PTS implant(s). This may result in device shift and variability. In this paper, we investigated novel approaches to reduce dopant back diffusion into the active fin region. Specifically, we studied the impact of (1) Carbon co-implants to block the dopant up-diffusion into the active fin region, (2) implants with heavy species at room temperature, and (3) thermal implants with heavy species. Results show that a lower channel concentration is achieved with antimony. These approaches can be extended to develop junction isolation for bulk FinFETs for 10nm and beyond.

The mechanism of helium-based plasma doping (He-PD) was investigated. It is found out for the first time that the mechanism is that dopant atoms are knocked-on by a huge number of helium atoms, born out by the results of experiments of helium plasma irradiation following the ultra-low energy implantations. Boron and phosphorous atoms are knocked-on to the almost same depth. Arsenic ions are also evaluated and deeper depth doping than boron and phosphorous is observed. Additionally, it is not necessarily the case that the profile by the He-PD shows steeper abruptness than conventional ion implantation but it is limited to the low power condition. The moving distance by helium irradiation does not depend on atom mass but it correlates linearly to the atom radius. Large atoms such as arsenic moves more than smaller atoms like boron and phosphorous.

In this study, we investigated an ion implantation effect to change the physical property of High Purity Semi-Insulating Silicon Carbide (HPSI-SiC) wafers. Ion implanter IMPHEAT® was used to implant an ion beam into SiC wafers. The spectroscopic analysis was carried out before and after ion implantation. The chucking force was also measured before and after ion implantation to confirm change of the force. Additionally, the implant depth profile was investigated with the effect of a Plasma Flood Gun (PFG).

The SAion-450 is a leading-edge ion implanter developed for the upcoming 450mm wafer generation. The SAion-450 has extremely wide process coverage and productivity throughout both the medium current (MC) and high current (HC) process ranges. Although the area of a 450mm wafer is 2.25 times larger than that of a 300mm wafer, the SAion-450 can process typical MC recipes with higher productivity than the current 300mm MC implanter, the MC3-II/GP. Additionally, low energy (LE) productivity can be significantly enhanced with the addition of the LE beam line option. This can be easily installed (or removed) in a production fab. The SAion product line also includes a 300mm model. The SAion-300 is equipped with the same beamline as the SAion-450 in order to deliver the same process characteristics in 300mm fabs as in 450mm wafer lines. Thus, the SAion series can serve as a bridge tool to assure smooth wafer size transition from 300mm to 450mm.

A number of schemes have been proposed in the literature to getter the metal impurities, which are detrimental to the device performance and yield (DPY), in silicon. These schemes vary from segregation based gettering, to extended defect clusters to magic denuded zones. While some of these are empirical and others being expensive to implement, they often contradict with each other. It is the purpose of this paper to propose a scheme that is simple and inexpensive yet firmly based on the principles governing effective gettering of the metal impurities. Further implant capability for sub-micron technology nodes is also discussed.

The complexity of the physics involved in the fabrication of 3D advanced nano-devices, promotes the daily use of advanced simulation tools. TCAD will be needed not only to optimize the transistors and support the device and process integration teams, but also to understand the new materials impact on the transistor performance. To achieve such goal, new simulation paradigms are required, affecting the way TCAD is used. Actually, the 3D TCAD, already used for silicon nodes, faces a limitation of present continuum tools for process and device simulations. The constant reduction of the transistor dimensions and the point defects-dopants interaction with multiple interfaces make Kinetic Monte Carlo a suitable tool for predictive 3D process modeling. On the device side, the 3D confinement of the device and the discrete doping profiles require accurate modeling of the scattering mechanisms in the silicon channel which makes 3D Monte Carlo simulation attractive However, for the simulation of new materials in the channel and source/drain of the Finfet, 3D Monte Carlo simulation becomes mandatory for the transport modeling. In this paper, we will review these different aspects of the TCAD needed for the 3D Tri-gate devices.

HfO2 based high-permittivity gate dielectric has been introduced to CMOS logic device manufacturing since from 45nm node. However, these dielectrics are still under investigation and continuous optimization because of their relatively high oxygen vacancy concentration. Post Dielectric Annealing (PDA) after HK film may be a promising approach to reduce HK film trapped defect density and improve device performance as some literature reported recently. In the present work, different annealing conditions were applied on interface layer (IL)/HfO2 stack films, including soak annealing, spike annealing, and flash lamp based Milli-Second Annealing (MSA). Both blanket wafer and MOSCAP wafer characterization results show post HK MSA is an effective method to repair HK intrinsic defect, like oxygen vacancy, while it also beneficial for improving the Si/IL, IL/HK interface quality.
