Microwave energized process for the preparation of high quality semiconductor material

摘要

High quality semiconductor material is deposited in a microwave energized glow discharge deposition process by energizing a process gas with microwave energy at a power level sufficient to generate a plasma at or near the 100% saturation mode and by impeding access of deposition species to the substrate so as to lower the deposition rate to a value less than that otherwise achieved operating at the 100% saturation mode.
