Process for forming a doped oxide film and composite article

摘要

A process for forming a doped oxide film suitable for doping a semiconductor wafer substrate material and composite article. A silicon tetra-alkoxide is reacted with a limited amount of water to produce a low molecular weight, soluble polyorganosiloxane. The polyorganosiloxane is subsequently admixed with a reactive dopant source to form a soluble metallosiloxane polymer. The metallosiloxane polymer is coated onto a semiconductor wafer substrate material to produce a metallosiloxane-wafer composite article. The composite article is heated to produce an impurity doped semiconductor wafer suitable for electronic applications.
