Research Abstract |
The carbon nitride (CNx) is electrochemically synthesized by applying a DC bias voltage to Si substrates immersed in acrylonitrile (CH2CHCN). In this work, a large area deposition of low-k CNx film has been attempted using improved apparatus and deposition parameters. Continuous, uniform films containing mostly C and N are grown on Si wafers as large as 100 mm in diameter. The power consumption required to form the CNx films on 100 mm Si wafer was 16 W, suggesting that it is estimated to be 250 W for the deposition on 400 mm wafer. The relative dielectric constant k of the CNx films can be reduced to 2.4 by optimizing the deposition parameters such as the bias voltage and film thickness. These results demonstrate the scalability for the liquid deposition process of the low-k insulating layer onto large-scale Si wafers used for ULSI production.
