  • METHOD FOR PREPARING A MICROELECTRONIC COMPONENT COMPRISING A LAYER WITH A BASIS OF A III-V MATERIAL
    Publication number: 20240234126
    Abstract: A method for preparing a microelectronic component includes cleaning of the surface of an exposed layer with a basis of a III-V material by a cyclic plasma treatment, each cycle comprising a purge phase and a plasma treatment phase. During the formation of the plasma, a bias voltage is applied to the substrate. The method further includes depositing, on the cleaned surface, a subsequent layer. The method provides an optimal cleaning of the exposed layer while minimising, and preferably avoiding degradation of the structure. The preparation method thus makes it possible to improve the quality of the interface between the layer with a basis of a III-V material and the subsequent layer. The electrical properties of the component are consequently improved.
