本发明涉及氧化辞薄膜的制备技术领域, 特别涉及原子层沉积制备共 掺的氧化辞薄膜的方法。 The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of oxidized films, and in particular to a method for preparing a co-doped oxidized film by atomic layer deposition.
背景技术 Background technique
半导体薄膜在微电子、 光学、 信息学等高新技术产业中发挥出十分重 要的作用, 发展高晶体质量半导体薄膜的制备与掺杂技术, 特别是对于第 三代半导体材料 ZnO薄膜的制备、 表征、 掺杂极其特性研究, 对于包括紫 外波段发光材料、 紫外探测器, 高集成度光子学与电子学器件、 太阳能电 池等面向新能源的重要应用领域具有十分重要的意义。 氧化辞作为一种新 型的 II - VI族直接带隙宽禁带化合物, 具有大的室温禁带宽度 3.37eV, 而 且自由激子结合能高达 60meV, 作为半导体材料越来越受到人们的重视。 与其它宽禁带半导体材料相比, ZnO薄膜生长温度低, 抗辐射性好, 受激 辐射有较低的阈值功率和很高的能量转换效率,这些优点使 ZnO正成为光 电子、 微电子、 信息等高新技术在十二五之后赖以继续发展的关键基础材 料。 然而本征 ZnO由于存在缺陷, 使得 ZnO呈 n型, p型 ZnO薄膜制备 是目前 ZnO相关研究的热点和难点。氮掺杂虽然在理论上的计算使得 p型 ZnO的制备成为可能, 但是众多实验表明, 由于 N元素在 ZnO中固溶度 较低, 因此单独的 N元素掺杂不能实现高载流子浓度和高迁移率的 p型 ZnO薄膜。 为了解决该问题, 受主 -施主 -受主的共掺被认为是制备出高质 量的 p-ZnO薄膜最优发展前景的方向之一。 Semiconductor thin films play an important role in high-tech industries such as microelectronics, optics, and information science. They develop high-crystal quality semiconductor thin film preparation and doping technology, especially for the preparation and characterization of third-generation semiconductor materials ZnO thin films. The study of doping characteristics is of great significance for important applications such as ultraviolet luminescent materials, ultraviolet detectors, highly integrated photonics and electronics devices, and solar cells for new energy sources. Oxidation as a new type II-VI direct band gap wide bandgap compound, with a large room temperature band gap of 3.37 eV, and free exciton binding energy of up to 60 meV, as a semiconductor material has received more and more attention. Compared with other wide-bandgap semiconductor materials, ZnO thin films have low growth temperature, good radiation resistance, low threshold power and high energy conversion efficiency. These advantages make ZnO become optoelectronics, microelectronics, and information. The key basic materials that high-tech will continue to develop after the 12th Five-Year Plan. However, due to the defects of intrinsic ZnO, ZnO is n-type, and the preparation of p-type ZnO thin films is a hot and difficult point in ZnO research. Although the theoretical calculation of nitrogen doping makes the preparation of p-type ZnO possible, many experiments have shown that due to the low solid solubility of N element in ZnO, the single N element doping cannot achieve high carrier concentration and High mobility p-type ZnO thin film. In order to solve this problem, the acceptor-donor-acceptor co-doping is considered to be one of the directions for the optimal development of high-quality p-ZnO thin films.
近年来, 制备 ZnO薄膜的方法通常包括: 如磁控溅射、 金属有机化学 气相沉积 (MOCVD)、 分子束外延 (MBE)、 激光脉沖沉积 (PLD)和湿化学沉 积等。 这些制备工艺各有优缺点, 从结晶情况来看以 MOCVD和 MBE法
制备的薄膜质量较好。 然而, MOCVD不能在原位进行薄膜的掺杂并且反 应中存在的湍流和气流分布会影响膜的厚度和均勾性。 MBE技术对于特定 原子层位置的精确掺杂也难以实现。 In recent years, methods for preparing ZnO thin films generally include: magnetron sputtering, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), laser pulse deposition (PLD), and wet chemical deposition. These preparation processes have their own advantages and disadvantages, from the crystallization point of view by MOCVD and MBE The prepared film is of good quality. However, MOCVD cannot do film doping in situ and the turbulence and gas flow distribution present in the reaction can affect the thickness and uniformity of the film. The precise doping of MBE technology for specific atomic layer locations is also difficult to achieve.
