In this paper, plasma damage to gate oxide in a plasma nitridation (PN) system has been systematically studied by an NCMM system on bare oxide wafers. The results demonstrate that conventional V/sub surf/ measurement on thick oxide bare wafers has the sensitivity to detect the positive charge induced by the PN process and to characterize the plasma uniformity, but this method might underestimate the damage to gate oxide. It is found that both D/sub it/ and Q/sub tot/ measurements on very thin oxide are more accurate methods to quantify the plasma damage. However, only D/sub it/ correlates well with device performance. The findings of this study provide a time saving and cost effective method for PN process optimization and process monitoring.","PeriodicalId":196923,"journal":{"name":"2003 8th International Symposium Plasma- and Process-Induced Damage.","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117259007","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of plasma-induced damage to ultrathin (/spl les/15 A) plasma-nitrided oxide (PNO) on EOT scaling were systematically investigated. The study showed that increasing nitrogen concentrations of PNO using aggressive plasma nitridation failed to reduce the EOT because the plasma-induced parasitic oxidation resulted in a substantial increase in oxide thickness that overrode the dielectric constant increase and consequently increased the EOT. The carrier mobility degradations and higher HF etching rates of PNO demonstrated the damage from plasma nitridation. Although reducing base oxide thickness was able to scale down EOT, the efficiency was extremely poor; a decrease of 1.5 A in base oxide thickness only resulted in 0.3 A of EOT reduction. MOSFET device data and SIMS depth profiles indicated that a thinner base oxide was more susceptible to plasma-induced damage. Finally, this study showed that after optimization, the plasma nitridation process was able to reduce plasma-induced damage so that the EOT could be scaled down without penalties.","PeriodicalId":196923,"journal":{"name":"2003 8th International Symposium Plasma- and Process-Induced Damage.","volume":"178 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132905659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effects of metal contamination on semiconductor devices include oxide degradation, increased leakage current of p-n junctions and reduced minority carrier lifetime. The Surface Photo Voltage (SPV) technique is employed to quantify iron contamination on monitor wafers. The introduction of contamination control charts (iron concentration and diffusion length parameters) for ion implanters is effective in determining some important causes of contamination increase on implanted monitors: silicon-coating progressive erosion of the machine loading disk and specific periodic maintenance performed on the equipment. The results of these analyses allowed us to establish the equipment's disk replacement frequency and to determine the correct requalification procedure of machines after maintenance.","PeriodicalId":196923,"journal":{"name":"2003 8th International Symposium Plasma- and Process-Induced Damage.","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132014420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper presents a methodology, which employs a combination of prevention and correction of antennae at various stages of ASIC (Application specific Integrated Circuits) design flow such as cell library development, block design flow and chip design flow. The methodology advocates adding protection diodes only in a certain number of cells in the library. We have implemented this methodology in our ASIC design flow and are able to solve antenna issues in designs with negligible impact on die size (24% increase in die-size in less than 5% of the designs) and performance (0.3%-0.6% worst case impact to delay). By employing this methodology, we found that the number of antennae in the final layout reduced to very small number and even to zero in some cases, and we were able to save the time involved in correcting antennae.","PeriodicalId":196923,"journal":{"name":"2003 8th International Symposium Plasma- and Process-Induced Damage.","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132480080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show significant differences in the charging characteristics of high-current ion implanters compared to contemporary plasma-based process tools. The differences appear to be independent of ion energy, but depend on the set-up conditions of the plasma flood system used to limit positive charging caused by the ion beam. In contrast to plasma tools, the implants typically exhibited positive and negative potentials independent of hole size. The positive and negative current densities measured in the resist holes were also independent of hole size (and significantly higher than in the clear field). However, a 500 eV B/sup +/ implant with modern plasma flood control produced positive and negative potentials that scaled with hole size, as expected for electron shading, but with current densities below CHARM/spl reg/-2 detection levels. This establishes an existence proof that optimal plasma flood can achieve near perfect current balance between the positive charging from the ion beam and the negative charging from the flood plasma. Altogether, these results suggest that charging damage in high-current ion implanters should be controllable when implant mask and device features are scaled down.","PeriodicalId":196923,"journal":{"name":"2003 8th International Symposium Plasma- and Process-Induced Damage.","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129848886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work a guideline for PID monitoring standardization for JEDEC has been given. A systematic hierarchy approach has been presented in order to be able to establish an automatic data evaluation usable for production monitoring. A minimum set of antenna test structures has been addressed, as well as the correct characterization techniques. It has been shown that a diagnostic stress is required, in order to be able to detect signals when PID issues occur. The large amount of data generated by the monitoring measurements is hardly manageable without an automatic procedure. The definition of such procedure depends on the choice of the monitoring parameters, but aims in any case to reduce the measured parameters to a clear and simple figure of the PID that can be easily trended.
