Technical field
The present invention relates to the method that a kind of nano-crystalline granule detects, particularly a kind of method of utilizing the online detection form of silicon nanocrystals of variation of measuring the reflection of monochromatic light rate.
Background technology
Since 1967; The D.Kahng of AT&T Labs and S.M.Sze have proposed since the nonvolatile semiconductor memory of FGS floating gate structure, the floating boom semiconductor memory of the MOSFET structure of piling up based on grid just on capacity, cost and power consumption with occupy great advantage replaced before the long-term magnetic store that uses.On this basis; Toshiba Corp has successfully proposed the notion of Flash storer in 1984, the Flash storer is the main flow device on the nonvolatile semiconductor memory market at present, but along with the microelectric technique node is constantly pushed ahead; The technology live width will further reduce; Traditional flash device based on FGS floating gate structure meets with serious technological difficulties, and main cause is the lasting attenuate owing to tunneling medium layer, and leaky is serious all the more; But seriously limited the downsizing of Flash device, the density refractory that causes floating-gate memory spare is to promote.The solution that solves this type of problem at present has two kinds.A kind of revolution formula scheme is exactly the storage medium that adopts different fully storage mechanism and structure, like RRAM, and FeRAM, PCRAM etc.; A kind of in addition modified scheme is exactly on the basis of existing nonvolatile floating grid memory, adopts new floating boom storage medium, like Nitride, nanocrystalline or the like.For preceding a kind of scheme, owing to adopt two ends formula storage organization, storage unit takies area of chip and can significantly reduce; Density can further improve; But in the middle of this scheme, that have and compatibility traditional cmos process are not very high, need to increase extra processing step; The storage mechanism that has is still waiting further research, therefore also is not very ripe at present.And, adopt silicon nitride for second kind of scheme, nonmetal nanocrystalline; Almost compatible fully with traditional cmos process; Even need not increase extra Lithographic template, there is boundless application prospect in the nonvolatile floating grid memory field for below the present 65nm.
But the online detection for the detection of nano-crystalline granule, particularly form of silicon nanocrystals lacks a kind of method accurately and reliably.Analyzing the nanocrystalline the most frequently used method of form at present adopts high precision ESEM (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) to detect exactly.
The principle of work of SEM is with a branch of superfine electron beam scanning sample; Inspire electronic secondary at sample surfaces; What of electronic secondary are relevant with electron beam incident angle, that is to say relevant with the surface structure of sample, therefore can be according to the configuration of surface that how much detects of the electronic secondary of collecting.The principle of work of TEM is to see through sample with electron beam, and the image that the sample of process attenuate focuses on and the amplification back is produced detects and shows configuration of surface.
But these two kinds of methods all need the fragmentation analysis; Cycle is long, and cost is also higher, and these two kinds of methods mainly are to detect single nanocrystalline form; The nanocrystalline very difficult express statistic that differs for size goes out mean value, is not suitable for the fast detecting of large-scale production.

Embodiment
For making the object of the invention, technical scheme and advantage clearer, below in conjunction with specific embodiment, and with reference to accompanying drawing, to further explain of the present invention.
The method of the online detection form of silicon nanocrystals of variation of reflection of monochromatic light rate is measured in utilization provided by the invention; Through nano-crystalline granule to absorption of incident light; Thereby influence the variation of reflective light intensity; Cause the change of reflectivity occurrence law property, therefore can qualitatively nanocrystalline form and reflection of light rate be connected, thereby can realize on-line quick detection silicon nanocrystal.
As shown in Figure 1, realization principle of the present invention is following: for silicon dioxide (like Fig. 2-1), nanocrystalline density is big more; Thickness is big more, and the loss of incident light is just big more, and reflective light intensity also will reduce; Thereby can set up corresponding relational expression, reach the purpose of on-line monitoring; And for silicon nitride, nanocrystalline density increases, because the character of backing material; The reflectance varies trend of different detection wavelength is also different; But for the wavelength between given zone, reflectivity also presents regular variation (like Fig. 2-2), thereby the light that also can choose specific wavelength is as detecting light.
Be positioned at the detection light of interval 325nm~420nm for wavelength, the reflectance varies of silicon dioxide and silicon nitride substrate presents consistent Changing Pattern: nanocrystalline size increases, and reflectivity reduces.Thereby the light that the most significant wavelength of selection reflectance varies trend is 365nm is as detecting light (like Fig. 2-3).
The present invention adopts incident illumination radiosilicon sheet surface, detects the method for nanocrystalline form through the variation of detection of reflected rate.Said incident light can be a monochromatic light; Also can be wavelength bandwidth minimal continuous light, as shown in Figure 1, when light 1 incides nanocrystal surface; Except not by the partial reflection of nanocrystalline covering surfaces; Some light 3,4 is absorbed through nanocrystalline inner the refraction, and the light intensity that causes reflecting weakens, thereby reflectivity can descend (said reflectivity is the ratio of all catoptrical intensity summations with incident intensity).Nanocrystalline size is big more, and thickness is also big more, and light also can be big more through nanocrystalline distance; The probability that absorbs also can be big more; So reflective light intensity can corresponding minimizing, thus can connect reflectivity and nanocrystalline size, at the silicon nanocrystal growth time during greater than 2 minutes; Reflectivity and growth time (being the size of silicon nanocrystal) are approximated to linear relationship (like Fig. 2-3), therefore can detect the nanocrystalline form situation of silicon chip surface through the size of reflectivity.
As shown in Figure 3, Fig. 3 is the method flow diagram that the online detection form of silicon nanocrystals of variation of reflection of monochromatic light rate is measured in utilization provided by the invention, and this method may further comprise the steps:

Silicon growth layer is nanocrystalline respectively at each substrate surface, differs successively 0.5 minute at the growth time of each substrate surface, is respectively 1 minute, 1.5 minutes, 2 minutes, 2.5 minutes ....
Step 3: utilize wavelength to be incident to each substrate surface as incident light for the monochromatic light of 365nm; Because surfacing and pattern is different; Reflective light intensity will inevitably change, and writes down the reflectivity of the nanocrystalline silicon chip of various growth times, sets up the relational expression between growth time and the reflectivity;
Wavelength is that the monochromatic light of 365nm is produced by online thickness checkout equipment; Or with spectroscope white light is resolved into the monochromatic light of different wave length; And constitute continuous visible light, the intercepting wavelength is that near one section spectrum extremely narrow 365nm is as this monochromatic light then.The launching spot area is 2.7 μ m * 2.7 μ m.Reflectivity is all reflected light and the ratio of the light intensity of initial incident light.
