Abstract:Silicon nitride films were deposited in SiH 4 NH 3 N 2 plasma at room temperature by using a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition system. SiN film characteristics examined as a function of radio frequency bias power include a deposition rate, a refractive index, and a surface roughness. Ion energy diagnostics was also conducted to analyze in detail the bias power effect. An increase in ion energy and a decrease in ion energy flux were observed with increasing the bias power. Several relationships between … Show more
“…This process allows SiNx growth in the range from room temperature to 350 °C. 138 However, unlike LPCVD, PECVD does not produce stoichiometric oxides and nitrides. 134 Silane (SiH4) and ammonia (NH3) with nitrogen (N2) are the most typical precursors, but others have been reported.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
