The Behavior of Negative Ions in Silane Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition
실란 플라즈마 화학증착에서의 음이온거동
Abstract
The objective of this research is to analyze the phenomena of negative ion behavior in silane plasma chemical vapor deposition. Based on the plasma chemistry, the model equations for the formation and transport of negative ions were proposed and solved. The evolutions of gaseous species along the reactor were presented for several conditions of process variables such as reactor pressure, total gas flow rate, and electric field. Based on the model results, it is found that : (1) The concentration profiles of positive ions show the sharp peaks at the center of plasma reactor. (2) Most of negative ions are located in bulk plasma region, because the negative ions are excluded from the sheath region by electrostatic repulsion.
