    摘要: Structures useful for dielectrically isolated high voltage devices are produced utilizing a melting technique. In this technique a cavity is produced in a silicon wafer, the surface of the cavity is, for example, oxidized to form a dielectric material, and silicon is deposited onto the dielectric material so that it extends to a region where it is in contact with single crystal silicon, e.g., a portion of the wafer. The entire region of polycrystalline silicon is then melted. Upon termination of the melting energy, the polycrystalline silicon is converted into a thick region of dielectrically isolated single crystal silicon. This thick region is useful for the formation of high voltage devices.

    摘要: Dielectrically isolated regions of single crystal silicon are produced through the use of a specific melting process. In this process, a substrate having regions of single crystal silicon contacting regions of non-single crystal silicon that overlie a dielectric material are treated. In particular, the entire region(s) of non-single crystal silicon is melted utilizing primarily radiant energy. Cooling is then initiated and the molten silicon is converted into a region of single crystal material. Isolation is completed by removing the appropriate regions of single crystal silicon.

    摘要: Dielectrically isolated semiconductor devices are producible through a relatively convenient fabrication procedure. In this fabrication procedure, a substrate having regions of single crystal silicon and regions of silicon oxide is employed. Such substrate is expeditiously produced by methods which leave the surface of the single crystal regions below those of the silicon oxide regions. Silicon is deposited by CVD onto the structure with its regions of silicon dioxide and single crystal silicon. Initially, the conditions of the CVD procedure are controlled so that epitaxial silicon grows on the regions of single crystal silicon but essentially no growth is induced on the silicon oxide regions. When the growth of the single crystal regions has proceeded sufficiently to produce a substantially planar structure, advantageously the deposition conditions are adjusted so that silicon is also deposited on the surface of the silicon oxide. The polycrystalline or amorphous silicon layer overlying regions of silicon oxide produced from this growth is then converted into single crystal silicon.

    摘要: In an epitaxial deposition reactor with an axially symmetric gas flow carrying the deposition materials, apparatus and method for heating the substrate and associated susceptor uniformly is described. The apparatus includes at least one chamber having a plurality of heat lamps passing therethrough, the chamber being generally disposed symmetrically with respect to an axis of the substrate. The walls of the chamber are appropriately coated to reflect the light from the heat lamps and the outermost lamps can be energized to produce a higher temperature than the centrally located lamps to compensate for regions of the reactor that provide access to the substrate and therefore promote thermal losses. The spacing of the lamps can be varied also to compensate for thermal non-uniformity of the heating cavity. In a first embodiment, a lower chamber can be a chamber similar to the first chamber with the exception that the lamps are rotated 90.degree.. In a second embodiment, the lower chamber consists only of reflecting surfaces with no sources of heat generated therein. However, in this embodiment a portion of the lower chamber has a reflectivity different from the reflectivity of the remainder portion of the chamber. The substrate can be rotated to provide a further averaging of possible thermal structure. In a third embodiment, parabolic reflectors are associated with each lamp to provide greater uniformity in the radiation impinging on the substrate-susceptor combination. Chambers having heating lamps with both parabolic reflectors and with planar reflecting surfaces are also described.

    摘要: The present invention relates to improved injectors for use in CVD reactor systems, and more specifically for use in epitaxial deposition systems for processing a single wafer-at-a-time. The improved injectors of the present invention are used to provide a predetermined desired shaped velocity profile for the injected reactant gases for insuring a more uniform deposition on a single wafer to be processed within the reactor system. In the first embodiment, the reactant gas is fed into a horizontal gas distribution manifold cavity and distributed horizontally in both directions. The gas then passes through a manifold wall having a pattern of predetermined sized and spaced apertures therein. The size of the apertures and the distribution of these sizes, shapes the resultant velocity profile to a desired pattern. Since the volume flow rate through each aperture of the manifold member increases as the diameter of the aperture increases, the resultant velocity profile produced will have its maximum at the center where the largest apertures exist and its minimum at the sides where the smallest apertures exist and the velocity profile will have a desired predetermined shape as it exits the gas delivery chamber and is turned 90.degree. for injection into the input of the reaction chamber. In an alternate embodiment, a plurality of linearly dimensioned slots are provided between spacer legs for producing the predetermined desired shaped velocity profile.
