  • Patent number: 8435803
    Abstract: A method for depositing a microcrystalline silicon film is disclosed, including performing an open loop and close loop plasma enhanced deposition process without and with modulating process parameters, respectively. A film is deposited by the open loop plasma enhanced deposition process till a required film crystallinity and then performing a closed loop plasma enhanced deposition process which monitors species plasma spectrum intensities SiH* and H? and modulates process parameters of the plasma enhanced deposition process resulting in the species concentration stabilization which controls the intensities variation of SiH* and H? within an allowed range of a target value for improving film depositing rate.

  • Publication number: 20120070590
    Abstract: This prevent disclosure provides a plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition apparatus and the controlling method thereof. The plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition apparatus includes: a plurality of reaction chambers, each of the reaction chambers having a first reaction space and a second reaction space; an adjustable partition unit controlled to separate or communicate the first and the second reaction spaces; and a plurality of heating carriers respectively disposed in the plurality of reaction chambers. The method manipulates the movement of the partition plate, leading to separation or communication between the first and second reaction spaces, so as to avoid the interference or inter-reaction between process gases and the resultant particles contaminating the substrates.

  • Publication number: 20090090616
    Abstract: A system and a method for plasma enhanced thin film deposition are disclosed, in which the system comprises a plasma enhanced thin film deposition apparatus and a plasma process monitoring device. The plasma enhanced thin film deposition apparatus receives pulsed power and a reactive gas, whereby plasma discharging occurs to ionize the reactive gas into a plurality of radicals for thin film deposition. The plasma process monitoring device comprises an optical emission spectroscopy (OES) and a pulsed plasma modulation device, in which the OES detects spectrum intensities of the radicals and the pulsed plasma modulation device calculates a spectrum intensity ratio of the radicals so as to modulate the plasma duty time of pulsed power, thereby high deposition rate as well as real-time monitoring on thin film deposition quality can be achieved.
