Troubleshooting a flat poly process
Problem: Cause: Solution:
Wafers are thick at door side and
thin at pump side.
• Gas distribution is incorrect • Increase gasload from the
pump side
Wafers are thick at the pump side
and thin at the door side.
• Gas distribution is incorrect • Increase gasload from the
doorside
Wafers are thick at the top and
thin at the bottom.
• The paddle is situated too
high in the tube.
• The paddle is colder then the
wafers and the tube.
• Adjust height of the paddle at
the cantilever system.
• Insert temperature
stabilization step in the recipe
after ‘evacuate’ and/or ‘heat
up’ step.
Wafers are thick at the edges and
thin at the center.
• Temperature is not
homogeneous within wafer.
• Pressure is too high.
• Insert temperature
stabilization step in the recipe
after ‘boat in’ and/or ‘heat up’
step.
• Decrease pressure.
No consistency in uniformity.
• Dirty quartz ware or wafers.
• No constant pressure control.
• Draft along the furnace.
• Clean tube, quartz ware and
paddle.
• Use clean wafers.
• Check pressure control.
• Decrease draft by reducing
overpressure cleanroom or
close possible draft holes.
Layer is too thin cross load.
• Deposition time is too short.
• Pressure is too low.
• Increase deposition time in
recipe.
• Increase pressure.
Layer is too thick cross load
• Deposition time is too long.
• Pressure is too high.
• Decrease deposition time in
recipe.
• Decrease pressure.

Description
4.3.2.1 Purpose
Low Temperature Oxide (LTO) is mainly used as a passivation layer over devices, which
already have metal contacts. Aluminum is widely used but with melting point of roughly
600
o
C a passivation layer deposition technique with a deposition temperature higher than the
aluminum melting point is not possible.
LTO is used to create a passivation layer while maintaining the aluminum contact integrity.
The low temperature reduces the electrical and mechanical properties of the deposited SiO
2
film, which makes it typically unsuitable for electrical applications.
4.3.2.2 Chemicals
Oxygen is the basic gas of every combustion reaction and therefore leaks can be dangerous
near hot areas.
SiH
4
is a pyrogenic gas, which means it will burn spontaneously when it comes into contact
with O
2
or air. It is also toxic and should be handled accordingly, although generally it will
burn before it gets toxic.
4.3.2.3 Process
Due to the pyrophoric nature of SiH4 combining SiH
4
and O
2
to do a process requires a
distinct handling procedure. This includes reduction of the process pressure and applying a
specific gas distribution system.
The deposition of LTO from SiH
4
and O
2
is a very physical process. This means, the
deposition rate strongly depends on the gas flows and diffusion properties. The gas flow is
mainly affected by the hardware configuration and not so much by the temperature. The
result is, that the deposition rate and thickness uniformity do not react much on temperature
changes, but do react on hardware changes such as cage and injector design, position of these
in view of each other, injector alignment and wafer alignment.
Additionally, as with most LPCVD processes, the pressure will also affect the process results.
The chemical reaction of a basic LTO process is as follows:
