  • 摘要: 以碳化硅、氮化镓和金刚石为代表的宽禁带半导体材料是典型的难加工材料。本研究中,设计2种基于化学机械抛光(CMP)的加工设备,以开发高效高质量加工此类晶体衬底的新技术,并研究讨论使用新设备时的加工机理和难加工衬底的加工特征。加工设备的原型机分别为封闭箱式(closed chamber-type)环境控制CMP设备和等离子体熔融(plasma fusion)CMP设备。在前者中引入光催化反应,并在高压氧气环境下增加紫外辐射,试图提高加工效率。在后者中预期实现常压等离子体化学蒸发加工(P-CVM)和CMP各自优势的协同效应,尤其适合高硬度、极稳定的金刚石衬底。在验证设备加工机理的过程中,随加工过程进行,在极限表面(extreme surface)上形成了如水合物膜或氧化物膜的反应产物。因此,引入紫外辐射的箱式CMP设备在高压氧气环境下效率极高;而对等离子熔融CMP设备,在氧气氛围下,同时开展P-CVM和CMP时可实现对金刚石晶片的高效加工。通过对加工机理进行研究,提出由伪自由基场(pseudo radical filed)/反应产物形成和新表面接触磁流变抛光这两步构成的“循环处理方法”,可实现对难加工材料的高效率加工。
