Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to investigate the dopant diffusion path of P and B in n- and p-types polycrystalline(poly-)-Si gates of trench-type three dimensional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors, the annealing time dependence of the dopant distribution at 900℃ were analyzed by atom probe tomography. Remarkable differences between P and B diffusion behavior were observed. P atoms diffuse into deeper regions from the implanted region along grain boundaries in the n-type poly-Si gate. With longer annealing times, segregation of P on the grain boundaries was clearly observed. These results show that P atoms diffuse along grain boundaries much faster than through the bulk. On the other hand, in the p-type poly-Si gate, segregation of B was observed only at the initial stage of diffusion. After further annealing, the B atoms became uniformly distributed, and no clear segregation of B was observed. Therefore, B atoms diffuse not only along the grain boundary but also through the bulk.
