SILICON-SILICON DIOXIDE INTERFACE OF PREDETERMINED SPACE CHARGE POLARITY |
摘要 |
In the fabrication of a semiconductor device having a silicon-silicon dioxide interface, the polarity of the space charge region associated with the interface is predetermined by a method which begins with the step of pretreating the silicon surface with a selected reagent capable of inducing the desired space charge polarity. For example, a pretreatment with chromic acid induces a negative space charge region, whereas a pretreatment with nitric acid induces a positive charge. The interface is then formed by vapor deposition of a silicon dioxide layer on the silicon surface. The pretreatment has been found capable of inducing a predetermined charge when the interface is provided by vapor deposition, but is wholly ineffective when the interface is provided by thermal oxidation. It is well known that thermal oxidation of a silicon surface inherently produces an interface having a positive space charge region.
