摘要
The influence of high temperature treatments in a nitrogen ambient at temperatures 1000 and 1100 degrees C and in water vapor at 900, 1000, and 1100 degrees C for 270 and 720 min on the structure, on the morphology and on the electrical properties of LPCVD Si3N4 layers has been investigated. The Si3N4 layers have been deposited by the LPCVD technique using the composition SiH2Cl2-NH3. The presence of a crystalline phase of alpha-Si3N4 has been established after 270 min annealing at 1000 degrees C in water ambient. A sharp change of the surface morphology of the layers has been observed after wet etching in 40% HF for 10 s.
