采用等离子增强化学气相沉积法, 以氨气和硅烷为反应气体, p型单晶硅为衬底, 低温下(200 ℃)制备了非化学计量比氮化硅(SiNx)薄膜. 在N2氛围中, 于5001100 ℃范围内对薄膜进行热退火处理. 室温下分别使用Fourier变换红外吸收(FTIR)光谱技术和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)技术测量未退火以及退火处理后SiNx薄膜的SiN, SiH, NH键键合结构和Si 2p, N 1s电子结合能以及薄膜内N和Si原子含量比值R的变化. 详细讨论了不同温度退火处理下SiNx薄膜的FTIR和XPS光谱演化同薄膜内Si, N, H原子间键合方式变化之间的关系. 通过分析FTIR和XPS光谱发现退火温度低于800 ℃时, SiNx薄膜内SiH和NH键断裂后主要形成SiN键; 当退火温度高于800 ℃时薄膜内SiH和NH键断裂利于N元素逸出和Si纳米粒子的形成; 当退火温度达到1100 ℃时N2与SiNx薄膜产生化学反应导致薄膜内N和Si原子含量比值R增加. 这些结果有助于控制高温下SiNx薄膜可能产生的化学反应和优化SiNx薄膜内的Si纳米粒子制备参数.

Non-stoichiometric silicon nitride (SiNx) thin films are deposited on p-type crystalline silicon substrates at low temperature (200 ℃) using ammonia and silane mixtures by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The evolutions of SiN, SiH and NH bonding configurations, the variations of Si 2p and N 1s electron binding energy and the ratio R of nitrogen to silicon atoms in SiNx films annealed at temperature in a range of 5001100 ℃ are investigated at room temperature by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. The relationship between the evolutions of FTIR and XPS spectroscopy of the samples at different annealing temperatures and the variations of bonding configurations of Si, N and H atoms is discussed in detail. According to the arguments about FTIR and XPS spectroscopy we conclude that when the annealing temperature is lower than 800 ℃, the breakings of SiH and NH bonds in the SiNx films lead mainly to the formation of SiN bonds; when the annealing temperature is higher than 800 ℃, the breakings of SiH and NH bonds are conducible to the effusion of N atoms and the formation of silicon nanoparticles; when the annealing temperature equals 1100 ℃, the N2 react on the SiNx films to cause the ratio R of nitrogen to silicon atoms to inerease. These results are useful for controlling the probable chemical reaction in SiNx films under high annealing temperatures and optimizing the fabrication parameters of silicon nanoparticles embedded in SiNx films.-
