  • 本研究建構一套準分子雷射退火矽膜再結晶特性之線上光學檢
    測系統,可以線上即時檢測出非晶矽薄膜於準分子雷射退火期間反射率與穿透率之變異性,進而分析相關物理現象並提出矽膜之相變化機制。藉由線上光學檢測系統檢測發現,使用PECVD所沉積90 nm厚的非晶矽薄膜於退火過程中,其液相存在時間隨著退火能量提高,從矽膜表面部份融化的15 ns延長至矽膜完全融化的130 ns,而在矽膜於近乎完全融化之能量170 mJ/cm2,液相存在時間為110 ns左右,其具有超級側向成長之區域,且可發現長達1 μm之大粒徑多晶矽。此外,影響非晶矽薄膜產生爆炸結晶的因素,有非晶矽薄膜厚度、準分子雷射脈衝持續時間、退火雷射波長,當膜厚>50 nm、準分子雷射脈衝持續時間>25 ns、準分子雷射波長>248 nm,非晶矽薄膜於融化後,能夠產生爆炸結晶現象;對於線上光學檢測系統,非晶矽膜之表面粗糙度RMS<1 nm、檢測光源波長>633 nm與檢測光源功率>5mW,能夠容易檢測出爆炸結晶現象。線上光學檢測系統能夠理解準分子雷射矽膜之再結晶機制,因此可以容易製作大粒徑之多晶矽以及提高低溫多晶矽之製程良率。


    An in-situ real-time time-resolved optical reflectivity and transmissivity (TRORT) monitoring system combining a CW He-Ne laser, a fast digital oscilloscope and two photodiodes is developed for monitoring the melt-phase duration and examine the melting and crystallization behavior during XeF excimer laser annealing(ELA) in this study. The recrystallization models are proposed to interpret the formation of grain microstructure.
    The melt-phase duration of PECVD-grown 90nm-thick a-Si films during ELA is increased from partial melting with 15 ns to complete melting with 130 ns. The grain size of 1μm in diameter is found in the super lateral growth SLG regime with melt-phase duration with 110 ns .Thickness of a-Si greater than 50 nm, pulse duration of excimer laser
    greater than 25 ns and wavelength of excimer laser greater than 248 nm are important for triggering the EC during ELA. Surface roughness of the sample smaller than 1 nm of root mean square (RMS), wavelength of probe laser greater than 633 nm and output power of probe laser greater
    than 5 mW are easier to observe the EC phenomenon using TRORT measurements during ELA. This technique provides a simple approach for fabrication large-grained poly-Si during ELA and enhances the high yield during in-line large area flat panel displays fabrication using poly-Si
    TFTs.
