Raman Characteristics of Polycrystalline 3C-SiC Thin Films

다결정 3C-SiC 박막의 라만 특성

Raman spectra of poly (polycrystalline) 3C-SiC thin films, which were deposited on the oxidized Si substrate by APCVD, have been measured. They were used to study the mechanical characteristics of poly 3C-SiC grown in various temperatures. TO and LO modes of 2.0 m poly 3C-SiC grown at 1180 C occurred at 794.4 and $965.7\;cm^{-1}$. Their FWHMs (full width half maximum) were used to investigate the stress and the disorder of 3C-SiC. The broad FWHM can explain that the crystallinity of 3C-SiC grown at 1180 C becomes poly crystalline instead of the disordered crystal. The ratio of intensity $I_{(LO)}/I_{(TO)}$ 1.0 means that the crystal defect of 3C-SiC/$SiO_2$/Si is small. The biaxial stress of poly 3C-SiC was obtained as 428 MPa. In the interface of 3C-SiC/$SiO_2$, the phonon mode of C-O bonding appeared at $1122.6\;cm^{-1}$. The phonon modes related to D and G bands of C-C bonding were measured at 1355.8 and $1596.8\;cm^{-1}$ respectively.
