Problems solved by technology

There are many foreign papers on this aspect, and the more practical one is to use MOCVD system, use dimethyl zinc (DMZ) as Zn diffusion source, dilute phosphine as protective gas, and carry out diffusion in low vacuum, but the equipment and materials Both are expensive and require strict safety protection measures, so the open-tube zinc diffusion method under normal pressure has always been the key process technology for the manufacture of InGaAs photodetectors.

Abstract

This invention discloses an open tube zinc diffusion method for the production of In-Ga-As photo-electric detectors relating to the diffusion technique of semiconductor photoelectric apparatus. The method includes applying a structure of open tubew diffusion quartz tube structure to intake the protecting gases of hydrogen and nitrogen, and putting zinc and semiconductor wafers into a carbon diffusion boat to carry out high temperature diffusion under normal pressure, and finishing the zinc diffusion technique of the semiconductor wafer. This invention has uniform and repeated diffusion, result, good property of junction with simple production technique and dimenision of semiconductor wafer can be increased along with the enlarging of the diffusion furnace, and the diffusion boat and the source can be used repeatedly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an open-tube zinc (Zn) diffusion method for manufacturing indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) photodetectors in the field of semiconductor photoelectric device manufacturing, and is particularly suitable for the zinc (Zn) diffusion process of semiconductor photoelectric devices. Background technique [0002] The Zn diffusion process in the traditional InGaAs photodetector manufacturing is to put the Zn diffusion source and the epitaxial wafer into the quartz tube at the same time to evacuate and seal the tube, push the diffusion into the heated diffusion furnace, and then break the quartz tube to take out the epitaxial wafer to complete . This method is cumbersome, requires a skilled quartz worker, and because it is difficult to evacuate and seal the quartz tube, it is not easy to diffuse large-sized sheets. In recent years, both at home and abroad are studying the open-tube Zn diffusion technology through different ways, but so ...
