Atomic layer doping of phosphorus (P) and arsenic (As) into Si was performed using the vapor phase doping (VPD) technique. For increasing deposition time and precursor gas flow rate, the P and As doses tend to saturate at about 0.8 and 1.0 monolayer of Si, respectively. Therefore, these processes are self-limited in both cases. When a Si cap layer is grown on the P-covered Si(001), high P concentration of 3.7 × 1020 cm-3 at the heterointerface in the Si- cap/P/Si-substrate layer stacks is achieved. Due to As desorption and segregation toward the Si surface during the temperature ramp up and during the Si-cap growth, the As concentration at the heterointerface in the Si-cap/As/Si-substrate layer stacks was lower compared to the P case. These results allowed us to evaluate the feasibility of the VPD process to fabricate precisely controlled doping profiles. [less ▲]

We investigated the growth of in-situ n-type doped epitaxial Si layers with arsenic and phosphorus by means of low-temperature chemical vapor deposition using trisilane as Si-precursor. Indeed, in order to prevent the alteration of the characteristics of the devices which are already present on the wafer, an epitaxy process at low temperature is highly desired for applications such as BiCMOS. In this work, the varying parameters are the deposition temperature, the Si-precursor mass flow and the dopant gas flow. As a result, a process for the deposition of heavily doped epilayers was demonstrated at 600 °C with high deposition rate, which is important for maintaining high throughput and low process cost. We showed that using trisilane as a Si-precursor resulted in a much more linear n-type doping behavior than using dichlorosilane. Therefore it allowed an easier process control and a wider dynamic doping range. Our process is an interesting route for the epitaxy of a low-resistance emitter layer for bipolar transistor application. [less ▲]
