Topographical Effects Regarding Trench Structures Covered with Rtcvd Sige Thin Films
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
The paper presented discusses certain topographical effects being significant for the coverage of nonplanar structures with undoped and doped thin SiGe films. They are essential for new integrated heterojunction Si/SiGe devices. To investigate the coverage of topographical surfaces SiGe layers have been deposited on different trench structures in a Rapid Thermal Low Pressure single wafer CVD reactor (RTCVD) from the system SiH4, GeH4, and H2 using B2H6/ H2 and PH3/ H2 for the in-situ doping, respectively. Various deposition conditions and different film compositions have been used. The results especially the differences of the thickness distribution within trenches and on the surface have been discussed with regard to different CVD models taking into account distinguished reaction mechanisms.
