摘要
本文用透射电镜(XTEM)和二次离子质谱(SIMS)分析了由超高真空化学气相淀积法(UHVCVD)生长的n-Si/i-p+-iSiGe/n-Si结构,发现在硅上外延生长i-p+-iSiGe时,在靠近Si的i/p+SiGe界面处存在一个很薄的层,但在i-p+-iSiGe上外延生长Si时,无此现象产生.此薄层是由在硅上外延生长i-p+-iSiGe时硼原子聚集在靠近Si的i/p+SiGe界面处形成的高掺杂薄层.高掺杂的薄层影响由此结构制备的异质结双极晶体管(HBT)的BC结的正向导通电压.
Abstract n Si/i p + i SiGe/n Si structures grown by ultra high vacuum chemical vapor deposition are investigated by transmission electron microscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry. It is found that a very thin layer exists at the interface of i/p + SiGe closer to the Si substrate when i p + i SiGe is grown on Si, and this phenomenon does not occur when Si is grown on i p + i SiGe. This thin layer is heavily boron doped due to the accumulation of boron atom at the interface of i/p + SiGe closer to the Si substrate. As a result, the turn on voltage of the BC junction of the SiGe HBT made from this structure was affected seriously
