技术领域technical field
本发明涉及多晶硅薄膜材料的制备领域,具体而言,涉及一种多晶硅薄膜材料的制备方法。The invention relates to the field of preparation of polysilicon thin film materials, in particular to a preparation method of polysilicon thin film materials.
背景技术Background technique
多晶硅薄膜材料由于具有原材料丰富、便于大面积沉积、光电性能优异、载流子迁移率高等优势而广泛地应用于太阳能电池、薄膜场效应晶体管等领域。目前常用的多晶硅薄膜材料的制备方法可分为两大类,一是直接沉积法,一般是利用化学气相沉积技术,包括等离子增强化学气相沉积(PECVD)、低压化学气相沉积(LPCVD)、热丝化学气相沉积(HWCVD),在600℃以上的温度,利用硅烷等反应气体直接在衬底上沉积多晶硅薄膜。这类直接沉积的方法由于温度较高,所以不能以廉价的玻璃作为衬底,限制了其发展。Polycrystalline silicon thin film materials are widely used in solar cells, thin film field effect transistors and other fields due to their advantages such as abundant raw materials, easy large-area deposition, excellent photoelectric performance, and high carrier mobility. At present, the commonly used preparation methods of polysilicon thin film materials can be divided into two categories, one is the direct deposition method, generally using chemical vapor deposition technology, including plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), hot wire Chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD), at a temperature above 600°C, uses reactive gases such as silane to directly deposit polysilicon films on the substrate. Due to the high temperature of this direct deposition method, cheap glass cannot be used as a substrate, which limits its development.
另一类就是间接法,主要包括:固相晶化技术(SPC)、快速热退火技术(RTA)、金属诱导晶化技术(MIC)、激光诱导晶化技术(LIC)。这类方法的共同特点是先在低温下沉积非晶硅薄膜,然后使其再结晶。其中SPC技术和RTA技术在再结晶的过程中仍需使用600℃以上的高温,因此仍有衬底的限制。MIC技术是一种低温晶化技术,是通过在非晶硅薄膜的表面或底部沉积一层金属膜来降低晶化温度,这种技术的优势是可使用廉价的玻璃衬底,且能耗低。存在的问题是所需的金属层往往较厚,如有很多研究显示非晶硅薄膜与金属铝膜的厚度之比大于2:1时才能达到金属诱导晶化的效果,因此金属污染问题是该技术的一个瓶颈。The other is the indirect method, mainly including: solid phase crystallization (SPC), rapid thermal annealing (RTA), metal-induced crystallization (MIC), and laser-induced crystallization (LIC). The common feature of these methods is to deposit an amorphous silicon film at low temperature and then recrystallize it. Among them, SPC technology and RTA technology still need to use a high temperature above 600°C in the process of recrystallization, so there is still a limitation of the substrate. MIC technology is a low-temperature crystallization technology, which reduces the crystallization temperature by depositing a metal film on the surface or bottom of the amorphous silicon film. The advantage of this technology is that it can use cheap glass substrates and has low energy consumption. . The problem is that the required metal layer is often thick. For example, many studies have shown that the effect of metal-induced crystallization can only be achieved when the ratio of the thickness of the amorphous silicon film to the metal aluminum film is greater than 2:1. Therefore, the problem of metal contamination is the main problem. A technical bottleneck.
LIC技术指的是在激光的瞬间脉冲作用下,使薄膜在数十到数百纳秒内升至高温,薄膜表面产生热能效应实现了由非晶硅到多晶硅薄膜的转变。由于激光扫描的过程持续时间很短、激光光束的宽度很小,传递到衬底材料的热量很少,所以对衬底材料要求不是很严格。该技术存在的问题是所需的激光的能量非常大。另外,无论是MIC技术还是LIC技术,目前其晶化前驱物非晶硅薄膜一般都用PECVD方法获得,仍需要硅烷等危险气体。LIC technology refers to that under the action of instantaneous pulses of laser, the film is raised to a high temperature within tens to hundreds of nanoseconds, and the thermal effect generated on the surface of the film realizes the transformation from amorphous silicon to polysilicon film. Since the duration of the laser scanning process is very short, the width of the laser beam is small, and the heat transferred to the substrate material is very small, the requirements for the substrate material are not very strict. The problem with this technique is that the energy of the laser light required is very high. In addition, whether it is MIC technology or LIC technology, the crystallization precursor amorphous silicon thin film is generally obtained by PECVD method at present, and dangerous gases such as silane are still required.
如申请号为201310163296.4公开了一种低成本高效多晶硅基薄膜的制备方法,其工艺流程包括薄膜沉积和固相晶化两部分。首先,采用等离子增强型化学气相沉积法,在玻璃衬底上生长500-2000nm的前驱体硅基薄膜,通过调节反应气体中硅烷与氢气的比例,在薄膜内部引入不同含量的结晶成分;随后,将薄膜样品在500-600℃下退火处理4-12小时,薄膜内的非晶成分逐渐晶化,最终得到结晶性良好的多晶硅薄膜材料。该方法通过在前驱体硅基薄膜内引入结晶成分,固相晶化过程中不需要形核,有效降低了薄膜的晶化温度,缩短了晶化所需时间,但制备过程中仍需要危险气体硅烷。For example, the application number is 201310163296.4, which discloses a low-cost and high-efficiency polysilicon-based film preparation method, and its process includes two parts: film deposition and solid phase crystallization. First, a 500-2000nm precursor silicon-based film is grown on a glass substrate by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition, and different contents of crystalline components are introduced into the film by adjusting the ratio of silane to hydrogen in the reaction gas; then, The film sample is annealed at 500-600° C. for 4-12 hours, the amorphous components in the film are gradually crystallized, and finally a polysilicon film material with good crystallinity is obtained. This method introduces crystalline components into the precursor silicon-based film, and does not require nucleation during solid-phase crystallization, which effectively reduces the crystallization temperature of the film and shortens the time required for crystallization, but dangerous gases are still required during the preparation process. silane.
有鉴于此,特提出本发明。In view of this, the present invention is proposed.
