Semiconductor nano line structure, due to the optics of its uniqueness and electrical properties, has boundless application prospect in electronic device, photodetection, biomedicine, sensor.Silicon materials are most crucial in current semi-conducting material, most widely used material.Over half a century in the past, microelectronic every generation huge advance is all carried out round silicon materials.Improving and including many new materials in through decades, the core technology platform of traditional counting is still based on silicon.Meanwhile, along with going deep into of research, day by day obviously be sure of that silicon can prepare the device with quantum charge and spin properties of all new generation as a kind of outstanding host material.This comprises from quantum computer to spintronics application widely.Silicon materials due to the existence of its weak SO coupling and isotope and zero nuclear spin be the ecotopia of spinning electron.Quantum device based on silicon has possessed on the basis of the manufacturing technology of classic computer exquisiteness will have huge application prospect in Quantum Spin control combination.
The microelectronics of existing industrialization and semiconductor technology take to have developed over half a century very ripe (Top-down) from top to bottom technology, namely the fine machining methods such as chemical wet etching are adopted, large material is cut little, form structure or device, and integrated with circuit, realize system microminiaturization.And having arrived nanometer and quantum device epoch, yardstick will reach even a few nanometer of hundred nanometers, and the technology thereupon produced and Cost Problems are by highly significant.And Bottom-up technology, it is the way of molecule, atom packaging technology, namely functional molecular, the atom with specific physicochemical property, by molecule, intraatomic active force, form the molecular line of nanoscale, film and other structure subtly, then be integrated into micro-system by nanostructure and functional unit.This manufacturing technology reflects a kind of theory of nanometer technology, namely from the level design of atom and molecule, assembled material, device and system, is the very promising manufacturing technology of one.
VLS (gas-liquid-solid) growth mechanism is the ripe growth mechanism preparing nano wire based on Bottom-up technology.The General Requirements of VLS growth mechanism must have the existence of catalyst, first growth material is evaporated into gaseous state, at suitable temperature, catalyst can form liquid eutectic with the constituent element of growth material is molten mutually, the constituent element of growth material constantly obtains from gas phase, after matter constituent element molten in liquid state reaches supersaturation, whisker will be separated out along solid-liquid interface one preferential direction, grow up to linear crystal.The size of catalyst will control the size of grown whisker to a great extent obviously.Experiment proves that this growth mechanism can be used for preparing the even more complicated monocrystalline of a large amount of simple substance, binary compound, and the essentially no dislocation of monocrystalline of the method growth, fast growth.A large amount of quasi-one-dimensional nanometer materials can be prepared by the size controlling catalyst.
Three, summary of the invention
For the problems referred to above, the object of this invention is to provide a kind of method preparing high-quality pearl string shape silicon nanowires.
Technical solution of the present invention is: a kind of method preparing pearl string shape monocrystalline silicon nano line, adopt the method for self-align growth and integrated planar semiconductor nanowires, step is as follows, 1) on smooth substrate, coordinate the technology such as photoetching or other pattern generation techniques, accurately control at films such as selected region evaporation inducing metal In, Sn or Bi, thickness in several nanometer to tens nanometers; 2) above-mentioned substrate is put into PECVD system chamber, utilize the plasma of hydrogen to process metallic film when temperature 200 DEG C-500 DEG C, power 2W-50W, make it to become the discrete accurate catalyzing nano-particles of diameter between tens nanometers are to several microns; The change such as temperature, power, time by the difference and process that regulate and control thickness of metal film can control to be formed the size of catalyticing metal particle; 3) in a pecvd system, substrate covers the amorphous silicon layer of one deck suitable thickness (a few nanometer to tens nanometer); 4) (temperature is at 350 DEG C-400 DEG C) are annealed in a vacuum or in the non-oxidizing atmosphere such as hydrogen, nitrogen; the catalyticing metal particle that is activated meeting spontaneous absorption amorphous silicon; crystallize out silicon, diameter generating period change simultaneously, grows pearl string shape nano wire.
The present invention program can regulate and control the growth of pearl string shape nano wire by parameters such as the temperature conditions of plasma treatment time power and temperature in adjustment growth course, covering amorphous silicon thickness and growth, annealing temperature and times, obtain the silicon nanowires that diameter, Cycle Length etc. are adjustable.
Selected inducing metal both can be Sn, Bi or In, also can be the metal that other can be induced plane nano line and grow.
Further, the pearl string shape nano wire of planar growth both can be silicon nanowires, also can be the semiconductor nanowires such as germanium, and nano wire both can be intrinsic nano wire also can be doped nanowire.
Mask plate both can be used in the location of inducing metal, also can utilize photoetching technique, nanometer embossing obtains.
The substrate of growth pearl string shape silicon nanowires is planar semiconductor substrate, or organic resistance to 350 DEG C of high-temperature material substrates.
Gu plane solid-liquid-(IP-SLS) growth mechanism that the present invention adopts is similar to VLS mechanism, is with the difference of VLS mechanism, in VLS mechanism growth course, required raw material are provided by gas phase; And in SLS mechanism growth course, required raw material provides from solid-state non-crystalline material, in general, in the method, conventional low-melting-point metal (as In, Sn or Bi etc.) is as cosolvent, is equivalent to the catalyst in VLS mechanism.
Beneficial effect of the present invention, the present invention adopts IP-SLS method to grow pearl string shape semiconductor nanowires in a pecvd system.The advantage of IP-SLS method is, the self-align nano-wire array of primary reconstruction can be realized, pearl string shape Silicon nanowire growth technology is based on IP-SLS method, by regulating and controlling the thickness of metal catalytic drop and amorphous silicon, by interaction inherent between metal catalytic drop and nano wire, original position autonomous growth goes out the nano wire of diameter mechanical periodicity, proves after transmission electron microscope characterizes, it only has diameter to change, and nano wire itself keeps high quality single crystal.In conjunction with the position of the technological orientation catalysed particulates such as photoetching, the plane high-quality pearl string shape silicon nanowire array that self assembly is self-align just can be obtained.Because the selection of this type of nanowire growth and substrate has nothing to do, except common nano wire transfer techniques, its still can at the bottom of part high temperature-resistant liner on to realize primary reconstruction self-align.Again owing to itself being exactly monocrystalline silicon, can merge mutually with existing silicon technology easily, be convenient to integra-tion application.The special coulomb island structure that the nano wire grown due to the present invention has, will transport regulation and control to realizing single electron, prepare single-electron device and have revolutionary breakthrough.Again because its growth is completely by the determining positions of catalysis inducing metal, the self-align array growth of self assembly can be realized, by single electron quantum device integrated in there is huge applications prospect.The self assembly self-align single electron quantum device preparation that the technology is (Button-up) technology based on from bottom to top and integratedly provide key technology basis.Therefore, the technology that the self-align preparation of IPSLS growth mechanism self assembly that the present invention takes grows pearl string shape silicon nanowires has broad application prospects in single electron quantum device is prepared and be integrated.
