BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a substrate with a crystallized silicon film and a manufacturing method thereof. Specifically, the present invention relates to a substrate a with crystallized silicon film with high crystallinity, high adhesiveness, and excellent optoelectronic properties, which is formed by depositing silicon chloride as a precursor on a flexible substrate through microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition.
2. Description of Related Art
Recently, industries are desirable to develop thinner and lighter electronic devices with multiple functions and low manufacturing cost to meet customers' needs. In order to satisfy the needs described above, the industries focus on using flexible polymer substrates for lightening the electronic devices. The use of the flexible polymer substrates in the electronic devices not only can expand the application ranges and market values of the electronic devices, but also can reduce the manufacturing cost thereof due to the applications of a roll-to-roll process. However, the polymer substrate generally has a lower melting point, such that the applications of the polymer substrate are limited, and the manufacturing processes for the electronic devices are also limited.
The manufacturing process of flexible optoelectronic devices with the amorphous silicon film has been fully developed. However, the said development of flexible optoelectronic devices is still restricted due to the unstable optoelectronic properties of the amorphous silicon film. Nowadays, it is known that the crystallized silicon film has better optoelectronic properties and carrier mobility than the amorphous silicon film, which improves many disadvantages of the amorphous silicon film.
The recent methods for manufacturing crystallized silicon film mainly comprise: solid phase crystallization, excimer laser annealing, metal-induced crystallization, and direct deposition. The process of solid phase crystallization includes the step of heating the silicon material in a prolonged duration time to re-nucleate silicon atoms. However, the process temperature thereof have to be 600° C. or higher. The process of excimer laser annealing includes the step of irradiating the amorphous silicon film with high energy laser to instantaneously melt the amorphous silicon film and then recrystallize to form the crystallized silicon film. However, the process temperature thereof have to be 400 ̃600° C. The process of metal-induced crystallization includes the step of adding a specific metal into the amorphous silicon film to induce the eutectic reaction between the metal and the amorphous silicon, or to form the metal silicide thereof, to lower the temperature required for solid phase crystallization to about 250 ̃50020  C. In addition, the process of direct deposition is performed by physical vapor deposition, thermal chemical vapor deposition, plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, or hot filament chemical vapor deposition in combination with a process of heating the base, high density plasma assisting apparatus or laser treatment to sufficiently grow the crystallized silicon film. However, the process temperature thereof might still be 250 ̃350° C.
According to the above mentioned techniques for manufacturing the crystallized silicon film, the former three methods require high temperature for recrystallization of the amorphous silicon. Even the process temperature for direct deposition method is relatively lower, it still has to be 250 ̃500° C. In addition, the crystallinity of the crystallized silicon films prepared by the above mentioned methods are rather low. Due to the low melting temperature of the flexible polymer substrate, it is difficult to directly form a crystallized silicon film with high crystallinity and excellent optoelectronic properties on a flexible polymer substrate.
Accordingly, it is desirable to provide a method of directly forming a crystallized silicon film with high crystallinity on a flexible polymer substrate, which is beneficial to the development of slimmer and lighter electronic devices.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The object of the present invention is to provide a substrate with a crystallized silicon film and a manufacturing method thereof, wherein the substrate with the crystallized silicon film is formed by performing microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition on at least one surface of a flexible substrate with silicon chloride as a precursor in a low-temperature condition.
The present invention provides a substrate with a crystallized silicon film, comprising a substrate, and a crystallized silicon film, wherein the said substrate is preferred to be a polymer substrate, and the said crystallized silicon film is formed on at least one surface of the substrate. A crystallinity of the crystallized silicon film is more than 90%, and the crystallized silicon film comprises a plurality of silicon crystals with column structures.
The Raman spectroscopy of silicon material has three main signals, which are: the amorphous phase at about 480 cm−1, the mesophase (also called as nano crystalline phase) at about 500 cm−1, and crystalline phase at about 520 cm−1. As the crystallinity of the silicon material and the size of the crystal grain increase, the signal of the Raman spectroscopy becomes nearer to 520 cm−1. Further, after fitting the Raman spectroscopy with Gaussian functions, the crystallinity of the silicon material can be calculated by the integrated area of the signals. In the said substrate with crystallized silicon film, the Raman spectroscopy thereof mainly has a peak at 510 ̃520 cm−1, and is preferred to have a peak at about 520 cm−1.
In the said substrate with crystallized silicon film, the X-ray diffraction pattern of the crystallized silicon film measured by Cu Kα irradiation has diffraction peaks at diffraction angles of 20 ̃60 degree, which respectively are [111] orientation at 28.4 degree, [220] orientation at 47.3 degree, and [311] orientation of 56.1 degree.
Higher relative intensity and narrower full width at half maximum of the diffraction peaks indicate the measured silicon film having better crystallinity. In addition, according to the X-ray diffraction pattern, the silicon crystals of the crystallized silicon film have a preferred crystalline orientation of [220].
The present technique is able to prepare the crystallized silicon film with high growth rate, wherein the growth rate of the film may be 100 nm/min or higher, and is preferred to be 100 nm/min to 150 nm/min. With regard to the said silicon crystals with column structures, the particle sizes of the crystal grains thereof are not particularly limited. According to the present embodiments, the particle sizes thereof may be about 61.40 ̃88.18 nm, wherein the maximum particle sizes thereof are about 88.18 nm. Further, the heights of the crystal grains of the said silicon crystals with the column structures are not particularly limited, which can be adjusted by the process time, and can be, for example, among 1 ̃3 μm.
In the substrate with the crystallized silicon film of the present invention, the applicable substrate is not particularly limited, and is preferred to be a flexible polymer substrate. The melting point of the substrate is not particularly limited, which may be 185 ̃400° C., wherein 185 ̃350° C. is preferred, 185 ̃300° C. is more preferred, and 185 ̃250° C. is most preferred. The material of the flexible polymer substrate that satisfies the requirements mentioned above may be, for example, polyimide (PI), polyethersulfone (PES), or Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), but the material of the flexible polymer substrate is not limited thereto. In addition, the thickness of the said substrate is not particularly limited as long as the substrate has a melting point that satisfies the above mentioned range, and the thickness of the substrate is preferred to be in the range of 100 ̃200 μm.
Furthermore, in the substrate with crystallized silicon film of the present invention, the crystallized silicon film has excellent adhesion, flexibility, and optoelectronic properties. In the substrate with crystallized silicon film of the present invention, an adhesion level of the crystallized silicon film to the substrate is 5B measured by the ASTM D3359-02 regulation. Further, the result of the bending test indicates that no cracks occur when the crystallized silicon film tightly attaches to the substrate. In addition, the conductivity of the crystallized silicon may reach 10−3 ̃10−1 S/cm while the substrate with crystallized silicon film is bended in positive angles (tensile stress) or negative angles (compressive stress). Especially, the conductivity thereof can be significantly increased when the substrate of the present invention is bended in the negative angles; and the conductivity thereof is not significantly reduced when the substrate is bended in the positive angles. According to the analytical result of Microwave photoconductive decay (μ-PCD), a carrier lifetime of the crystallized silicon film is about 10 ̃20 μs and a carrier mobility of the crystallized silicon film is about 100 ̃150 cm2/Vs, which are significantly higher than that of the amorphous silicon materials.
For the purpose of manufacturing the substrate with the crystallized silicon film with excellent adhesion, flexibility, and optoelectronic properties, another object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method of a substrate with a crystallized silicon film, which comprises the steps of: (A) providing a substrate, a silicon source and a hydrogen gas, wherein the substrate is a polymer substrate, and the silicon source is preferably SiCl4, Si2Cl6, or a combination thereof (more preferably, SiCl4); (B) placing the substrate into a reduced pressure environment of a pressure less than 10−2 torr, and using the hydrogen gas as a carrier gas to introduce the silicon source into the reduced pressure environment, wherein a flow rate of the carrier gas is 10-20 sccm; (C) introducing 50 ̃600 sccm of the carrier gas additionally, and performing a microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (MWPECVD) with a microwave power of 250 ̃2000 W under an operation pressure of 1 ̃10 torr; and (D) depositing a crystallized silicon film on at least one surface of the substrate to form the substrate with the crystallized silicon film.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the step of (B), the carrier gas of the hydrogen gas is injected into the liquid silicon source to introduce vapor of the liquid silicon source into the reduced pressure environment. The pressure of the reduced pressure environment may be less than 10−2 torr, and the flow rate of the carrier gas may be 10 ̃20 sccm, wherein 10 sccm is preferable.
In the step of (C), when hydrogen serves as the carrier gas, the flow rate of the additional hydrogen is preferred to be 100 ̃300 sccm, wherein 150 ̃250 sccm is more preferable, and 200 sccm is most preferable. Accordingly, a crystallized silicon film having the best quality can be obtained.
Furthermore, in the step of (C), the MWPECVD is performed with a plasma density of 1012 ̃1013 under a temperature of 200° C. or less.
In the present invention, during the process of forming the crystallized silicon film by the reaction of hydrogen/silicon chloride performed with the microwave plasma, the exothermic reaction occurs when forming hydrogen chloride by the reaction of the hydrogen free radicals and the chlorine free radicals in the plasma, and the free radicals are capable of etching the weak Si—Si bond and Si—O bond of the impurities. Therefore, the manufacturing method of the present invention has etching effect, self-cleaning effect, and chemical annealing effect so that the crystallized silicon film with high crystallinity can be formed on the flexible substrate with low melting point. In addition, because the microwave plasma has a high plasma density, the crystallized silicon film with high crystallinity can be formed on the flexible substrate with low melting point by a low temperature process.
Accordingly, the manufacturing method of the present invention provides a simple process for forming the crystallized silicon film on the polymer substrate with low melting point, and especially the obtained crystallized silicon film on the polymer substrate with low melting point has high crystallinity, which cannot be accomplished by the conventional methods. Therefore, the manufacturing method of the present invention is applicable for manufacturing silicon thin film solar cells, thin film transistor, sensors, and the like, and thus thin portable devices with can be achieved and the conductivity thereof can also be improved.
In addition, the most preferred silicon source used in the present invention is SiCl4, which is a terminal byproduct of preparing high purity single-crystal silicon wafer; therefore, SiCl4 is accessible and inexpensive. Further, SiCl4 is present in liquid at room temperature, so that SiCl4 is safer and easier to be stored than SiH4, which is usually used as the silicon source of chemical vapor deposition for forming silicon film. The microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of the present invention is a vacuum process, which has the advantages of high density plasma and no electrode contamination, and can be used to prepare silicon film with large area. Therefore, it can be applied to the present vacuum process of the semiconductor industries.
