Abstract

#140 mesh and #600 mesh wheels were adopted to grind (111) and (100) oriented single crystalline silicon wafer and the grinding induced change of the surface integrity was investigated. For this purpose, microroughness, residual stress and phase transformation were analyzed for the ground surface. Microroughness was analyzed using AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) and crystal structure was analyzed using micro-Raman spectroscopy. The residual stress and phase transformation were also analyzed after thermal annealing in the air. As a result, microroughness of (111) wafer was larger than that of (100) wafer after grinding. It was observed using Raman spectrum that the silicon was transformed from diamond cubic Si-I to Si-III(body centered tetragonal) or Si-XII(rhombohedral). Residual stress relaxation was also shown in cavities which were produced after grinding. The thermal annealing was effective for the recovery of the silicon phase to the original phase and the residual stress relaxation.

(111) 및 (100) 단결정 실리콘 웨이퍼에 대하여 #140 mesh와 #600 mesh의 연삭숫돌을 사용하여 연삭가공을 행하고 가공에 의한 표면품위의 변화를 관찰하였다. 이를 위하여 Atomic Force Microscope(Am)을 사용하여 미세거칠기를 분석하고 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)을 통하여 결정구조, 상변화 및 잔류응력을 분석하였다. 그 결과 연삭가공 후에 (111) 면에서 미세거칠기가 더 크게 나타났으며 실리콘이 다이아몬드구조의 Si-I에서 Si-III(body centered tetragonal) 및 Si-XII(rhombohedral)로 전이하는 현상을 라만스펙트럼 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 연삭가공에 의하여 패인 구덩이에서는 일반적인 가공표면과 다른 라만스펙트럼이 관찰되어, 표면에 인가된 잔류응력이 새로운 표면생성으로 해소되었음을 알수 있었다. 또한 열처리에 의한 재료의 표면품위개선효과를 분석하기 위하여 대기 중에서 열처리를 시행한 결과 열처리는 잔류응력의 해소와 상전이의 회복에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다.
