The anneal behavior of ArF excimer Laser CVD SiON films has been studied using FT-IR absorption spectroscopy. The anneal temperature range was $400{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ Abundant hydrogen effusion from thes layers was observed as anneal temperature increased. The coexistence of both Si-H am N-H bonds offers the possibility for cross linking am evidence for the occurrence of cross lingking was found in the IR spectrum. The electrical properties were also obtained that tire films have low leakage currents am good TZDB properties.

Previously, crystallization of a-Si:H films on glass substrates were limited to anneal temperature below 600.deg. C, over 10 hours to avoid glass shrinkage. Our study indicates that the crystallization is strongly influenced by anneal temperature and weakly affected by anneal duration time. Because of the high temperature process and nonconducting substrate requirements for poly-Si TFTs, the employed substrates were limited to quartz, sapphire, and oxidized Si wafer. We report on poly-Si TFT's using high temperature anneal on a Si:H/Mo structures. The metal Mo substrate was stable enough to allow 1000.deg. C anneal. A novel TFT fabrication was achieved by using part of the Mo substrate as drain and source ohmic contact electrode. The as-grown a-Si:H TFT was compared to anneal treated poly-Si TFT'S. Defect induced trap states of TFT's were examined using the thermally stimulated current (TSC) method. In some case, the poly-Si grain boundaries were passivated by hydrogen. A-SI:H and poly-Si TFT characteristics were investigated using an inverted staggered type TFT. The poly -Si films were achieved by various anneal techniques; isothermal, RTA, and excimer laser anneal. The TFT on as grown a-Si:H exhibited a low field effect mobility, transconductance, and high gate threshold voltage. Some films were annealed at temperatures from 200 to >$1000^{\circ}C$ The TFT on poly-Si showed an improved $I_on$$I_off$ ratio of $10_6$, reduced gate threshold voltage, and increased field effect mobility by three orders. Inverter operation was examined to verify logic circuit application using the poly Si TFTs.

SiN films were deposited in $Si_2H_6$(99.9%), $NH_3$(99.99%) gas mixture with carrier gas $N_2$ on Si substrate by ArF Excimer Laser CVD. SiN film deposition conditions that are substrate temperature and Laser average power were varied in order to investigate the dependence of SiN film on the condition. A post-deposition anneal was performed to examine variation of fixed charge density in the films. The deposition rate was increased as the substrate temperature and Laser power were increased during film deposition. The refractive index was increased with increasing substrate temperature, but it didn't have the dependence on Laser power. The fixed charge density was decreased when a post-deposition anneal was performed.

We developed a new laser irradiation (BLDA: Blue Multi-Laser-Diode Annealing) system. The system forms the uniform line beam, which is constructed by 48 pieces of semiconductor lasers. This new system has achieved high laser output stability and the highly accurate beam shape by adopting a reliable laser control, the auto-focus control in addition to an original laser photosynthesis technology and the beam homogenizing technology. It was confirmed to crystallize the Si films effectively with good quality.

It is of importance to know that the bonding strength and interfacial stress of SOI wafer pairs to meet with mechanical and thermal stresses during process. We fabricated Si/2000$\AA$-SiO$_2$ ∥ 2000$\AA$-SiO$_2$/Si SOI wafer pairs with electric furnace annealing, rapid thermal annealing (RTA), and fast linear annealing (FLA), respectively, by varying the annealing temperatures at a given annealing process. Bonding strength and interfacial stress were measured by a razor blade crack opening method and a laser curvature characterization method, respectively. All the annealing process induced the tensile thermal stresses. Electrical furnace annealing achieved the maximum bonding strength at $1000^{\circ}C$-2 hr anneal, while it produced constant thermal tensile stress by $1000^{\circ}C$. RTA showed very small bonding strength due to premating failure during annealing. FLA showed enough bonding strength at $500^{\circ}C$, however large thermal tensile stress were induced. We confirmed that premated wafer pairs should have appropriate compressive interfacial stress to compensate the thermal tensile stress during a given annealing process.

본 연구에서는 latch-up 개선책의 일환으로 개발중인 매립층을 갖는 retrograde well의 형성기술과 더불어 공정 단순화를 목적으로 개발된 BILLI (Buried Implanted Layer for Lateral Isolation) well 구조[1]에 대한 공정 유기 결함을 분석하고 그에 의한 소자 열화 특성을 분석 하였으며 그 개선책을 제시 하고자 하였다. 매립층 형성에 의한 유기결함은 접합 누설전류와 Gate oxide 신뢰성을 열화 시켰으나 이온주입 후 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 10sec 정도의 RTP anneal에 의해 그 소자 특성이 개선되며 표면 결함이 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by the pulsed laser deposition process. The dependence of the deposited film quality upon the partial oxygen pressure during the deposition process was importantly examined. Regardless of the oxygen pressure, the as-deposited films were not fully crystallized. However, the film deposited at low oxygen pressure became well crystallized after the annealing process. It was concluded, therefore, that the partial oxygen pressure is reduced as low as possible during the deposition process and then anneal the as-deposited samples at ambient pressure to fabricate the well crystallized SrTiO3 and BaTiO3 films by laser ablation.

기존의 실리콘 이종접합 태양전지는 후면에도 passivation layer인 i-a-Si:H 및 BSF층인 n-a-Si:H가 형성되는 구조를 가지고 있었다. 이러한 구조를 대체하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 실리콘 이종접합 태양전지의 후면 구조에 passivation 층 및 BSF층을 novel material인 Sb증착 및 RTP, laser anneal을 통해 새로운 BSF층 형성하고 태양전지 특성에 대해서 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 carrier lifetime, LIV, DIV 및 QE 등 전기적, 광학적 분석뿐만 아니라 SIMS 분석을 통하여 laser annealing 공정으로 형성된 BSF층의 depth profile 분석도 진행하였다. 또한 wafer orientation에 따른 특성을 분석하기 위하여 (100) 및 (111) wafer를 이용하여 분석하였다.
