Fabrication, structural and electrical properties of (1 1 0) localized silicon-on-insulator devices

Abstract: The aim being to fabricate (1 1 0) localized silicon-on-insulator (L-SOI) devices, we have first of all completed the Semicond. Sci. Technol. 23 105018 (2008) study of the differences between (1 1 0) and (1 0 0) surfaces in terms of (i) HCl etch kinetics and (ii) SiGe growth kinetics (with a chlorinated chemistry). The core layers of a L-SOI device are indeed obtained thanks to the in situ HCl etching (on patterned wafers) of the Si active areas followed by the selective epitaxial growth of a Si 0.7 Ge 0.3 /S… Show more

“…6). Such a (1 1 0) surface roughening by HCl has also been noticed at 675 1C for a 210 nm deep recess of Si windows [26]. We have plotted the rms roughness and Z range values corresponding to the different Si areas recessed at 750 1C in Fig.…”

“…Such a (1 1 0) surface roughening by HCl can be deleterious to the planarity of thin, pseudomorphic layers selectively grown in recessed areas, as shown in Ref. [26]. Here, given that we have investigated the growth of rather thick, relaxed Ge(1 1 0) layers with heavily defective Si substrate/Ge epilayer interfaces (due to the large lattice mismatch), this surface roughening is not so critical.…”

“…Thermal budget minimization is indeed a must, as (110) SiGe / Si heterostructures are more prone to plastic relaxation than (100) stacks (see Ref. (13) and references therein).…”

“…We have recently highlighted the promises of (110) L-SOI p-type MOSFETs (13). Such device architectures call upon several rather specific epitaxy and etch steps (14), which are surface orientation dependant (13), (15): (i) the gaseous HCl etch of Si in the active area (in order to avoid subsequent faceting), (ii) the Selective Epitaxial Growth (SEG) of {SiGe / Si} stacks with individual layer thickness in the 10 to 20 nm range and (iii) the SEG of Si Raised Sources and Drains (after the HfO 2 / TiN / poly-Si gate stack deposition and patterning). The Ge concentration of the SiGe sacrificial layer under the Si layer (which is the conduction layer of charge carriers) should be superior or equal to 20% in order to obtain a good lateral SiGe versus Si selective etch.…”
