Research Abstract |
Recently, the big diameter making of the wafer is rapidly advanced with the ultrafine processing technology of 0.1μm in the minimum in recent semiconductor manufacturing process line width in the process of the semiconductor. Then, the plasma, source by which a uniform process in a large area can be done is requested. Then, the NLD (Neutral Loop Discharge) plasma was proposed. Because the NLD plasma can dynamically control impossible plasma in past plasma, a highly effective process can be done. However, it is a current state of being limited from the structure only to the etching field now. We have aimed to pioneer the NLD plasma to a new field by applying a peculiar concept of the NLD plasma to the CNT (Carbon Nanotubes) making. In the actual experiment, we did the CNT making experiment by the Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) law which uses the DC electrical discharge, ICP and NLD plasma. As a result, CNT made by the experiment which used the NLD plasma became the thinnest. Moreover, CNT was able to be generated from other experiment methods with low-pressure power.
