[Analysis Case] Damage Assessment of Single Crystal Si Surface
Quantitative analysis of c-Si and a-Si by state is possible using high-resolution measurement and waveform analysis.
In the semiconductor manufacturing process, ion irradiation is sometimes performed for the purpose of surface modification. It is known that irradiating the surface of single-crystal Si with ions of inert elements can cause structural damage and lead to the formation of an amorphous layer. Utilizing the fact that high-resolution XPS spectra detect c (single-crystal) Si and a (amorphous) Si with different peak shapes, we will introduce a case where this damage-derived a-Si was separated from c-Si and quantitatively evaluated.
