Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Ultrasonic investigation on the vacancy in silicon wafers currently used in semiconductor device fabrications is an important issue for both solid-state physics and technological applications. The electron orbital bounded around the vacancy exhibiting largely extended radius possesses the strong quadrupole-strain interaction. This provides us the sizable softening in the elastic constants caused by the vacancies existing in extremely small concentration of a vacancy per 10E10 Si atoms. In the present research, we have employed the surface acoustic wave (SAW) device to generate the Rayleigh wave propagating on the surface of the silicon wafer. We have observed the softening of the Rayleigh wave and its magnetic field dependence. We have found the interaction Hamiltonian for the vacancy orbital and the Rayleigh wave and analyzed the softening by the quadrupole susceptibility. We will develop the vacancy evaluation as a new semiconductor technology in near future.
