Problems solved by technology

[0008] Currently, the acceptable range for resistivity uniformity of epitaxial wafers is less than 5%
However, the epitaxial wafers in the prior art have the lowest resistivity uniformity of only 2.5%. According to the existing technology, it is difficult to reduce the resistivity uniformity value.
[0009] The interdiffusion of impurities in the substrate and impurities in the epitaxial layer reduces the resistance uniformity of the epitaxial layer

Abstract

The invention discloses an epitaxial wafer substrate capable of reducing auto-doping during epitaxy. The epitaxial wafer substrate comprises a substrate body, and is characterized in that: the back surface of the substrate body is provided with a silicon dioxide layer. When an epitaxial layer generated by using the epitaxial wafer substrate capable of reducing the auto-doping during epitaxy is used, the resistivity uniformity numerical value can be less than 1.5 percent. Compared with an epitaxial layer which is generated by not using the epitaxial wafer substrate capable of reducing the auto-doping during epitaxy, the epitaxial layer which is generated by using the epitaxial wafer substrate capable of reducing the auto-doping during epitaxy has higher epitaxial layer resistance uniformity. By using the epitaxial wafer substrate capable of reducing the auto-doping during epitaxy, the follow-up production cost can be reduced, and the product quality can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an epitaxial wafer substrate, an epitaxial wafer and a semiconductor device capable of reducing self-doping during epitaxy. Background technique [0002] For semiconductor devices, the epitaxial layer needs to have a perfect crystal structure, and there are certain requirements for the thickness, conductivity type, resistivity and resistance uniformity of the epitaxial layer. The resistivity of semiconductors generally changes with changes in temperature, doping concentration, magnetic field strength, and light intensity. [0003] The combination of epitaxial layer and substrate and product specifications are determined by the application of subsequent products. Circuits and electronic components need to be fabricated on epitaxial wafers, and different applications such as PMOS, NMOS, CMOS and bipolar in saturation and non-saturation in MOS. With the development trend of integrated circuit design towards lightness, thinness, ...
