Abstract

One of the main requirements for Si-based ultrasmall device is atomic-order control of process technology. Here we show the concept of atomically controlled processing based on atomic-order surface reaction control. Self-limiting formation of 1-3 atomic layers of group IV or related atoms in the thermal adsorption and reaction of hydride gases (SiH4, GeH 4, NH3, PH3, CH4 and SiH 3CH3) on Si(100) and Ge(100) are generalized based on the Langmuir-type model. Si epitaxial growth over the N and P layer already-formed on Si(100) surface is achieved. It is found that higher level of electrical P atoms exist in such film, compared with doping under thermal equilibrium conditions. These results open the way to atomically controlled technology for ultralarge-scale integrations.
