[20a-B203-2] Diagnostic of Ti(acac)4 mist transport in tubular furnace
Keywords:Mist-CVD, Trench substrate, TiO2
Previously, we reported on the deposition of TiO2 film in a trench by intermittent mist CVD method, in which the mist supply time t1 and confinement t2 were repeated. In a trench with an aperture/depth (W/D) = 4/10 μm, uniform deposition was observed up to confinement times of t1 = 4 min and t2 = 2 min. However, at W/D = 4/20 μm, the film saturated at step coverage (SC) ~ 0.6. On the other hand, at t1= 16 min, SC improved to ~0.8. These results suggest that the behavior within t1 and t2 time dominates the uniformity in the trench. In the present study, the effect of the particle size distribution of the mist in the tube furnace on the deposition will be discussed along with the simulation results.
