Benefits of technology

[0044]The present invention enables doping that forms a stable amorphous silicon film and a stable polycrystalline silicon film at a low temperature and simultaneously that imparts conductivity in an atmospheric pressure environment.
[0045]The present invention relates to a technique for forming a bond between different metals using low-temperature atmospheric-pressure plasma jet, and in particular, relates to a technique useful for doping with a Group 13 element or a Group 15 element into a silicon film using an oligosilane compound that can form a film through coating.
[0046]In other words, chemical reaction by plasma is controlled by the control of plasma jet that is in an ionized gas state and has high energy by gas pressure and electric field, and this enables doping of a silicon thin film with a different element near atmospheric pressure and at low temperature.
[0047]As a whole, plasma that is at low temperature but has a high energy component with high reactivity and is in a non-equilibrium state, is generated at a pressure not less than the steam pressure of a liquid, that is, at a pressure around atmospheric pressure. By application of a mixed solution of a boron hydride compound and an oligosilane compound and subsequent spin coating, a thin film is formed. The plasma is applied to the thin film to remove hydrogen so that silicon and boron are directly bonded. The treatment can be continuously performed because an ambient pressure process using the ambient pressure (atmospheric pressure) plasma does not need vacuum. Furthermore, helium gas that is readily ionized is used for plasma generation. In addition, the treatment can be performed at a low temperature, and hence the treatment can be performed without damage to a substrate. Therefore, the technique can be applied to various substrates. The technique is used for producing a solar cell, a transistor, and various sensors including a silicon semiconductor as a basic component in an atmospheric pressure environment through a low temperature wet process. The technique enables the formation in a low temperature process. Therefore, the technique is useful for weight reduction of devices and useful as a technique for production of plastic devices.

Problems solved by technology

However, at that time, a silicon TFT exhibited no characteristic, and compound semiconductors such as CdS were used, but the characteristics of such semiconductors were not stabilized at all.
This raises an intrinsic problem of stoichiometry and a problem of unstable transistor characteristics due to the contact condition between a gate insulating film and a CdSe interface.
The (a-Si:H) TFT has a small off-state current and can ensure a high on / off current ratio but is considered to have a disadvantage of a low mobility.
However, the film is formed in a large electric field, the electrode surface is accordingly subjected to a strong impact of positive ions, and it is very difficult to obtain a smooth surface.
However, it seems to be disadvantageous for the plasma CVD method that the substrate is affected by the ion impact even in such installation manner.
Such a liquid phase method needs high temperature treatment because a molten silicon is typically used, and hence the method needs a large system.
However, the crystal grain boundary obtained by such a method is normally very small, and hence the product cannot be used without treatment.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a technique for forming a bond between different metals using low-temperature atmospheric-pressure plasma jet and, in particular, relates to a technique useful for doping with a Group 13 element or a Group 15 element into a silicon film using a polysilane compound and an oligosilane compound that can form a film through coating.BACKGROUND ART[0002]A silicon semiconductor is a material that has been studied as materials for a thin film transistor (TFT) and a solar cell since a long time ago. In particular, the TFT has been studied for a long time. In 1930, Lilienfeld et al. developed it as a current control device, and then in 1945, a vacuum deposited silicon thin film was observed to have a slight TFT action. Bardeen et al. examined the characteristic evaluation to lead to a suggestion in which an electric field to a semiconductor surface due to a gate potential is shielded by surface level, causing surface carriers not to be sub...
