Carbon Monoxide Application in Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) Processes

Abstract: Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), abbreviated as CVD, is a commonly used technique for thin film fabrication, playing a significant role in the field of materials science and engineering. In the CVD process, carbon monoxide (CO) serves as an important precursor molecule and finds wide applications in thin film growth and material synthesis. This article will focus on the primary role of carbon monoxide in the growth process of metal thin films during CVD. Carbon monoxide (CO) possesses high volatility and decomposability, allowing it to rapidly enter the reaction system and undergo decomposition reactions under appropriate temperature conditions, generating free carbon and oxygen atoms. This characteristic makes carbon monoxide an important choice

Applications of Silane in Semiconductor Lithography Processes

Silane is a crucial chemical compound with wide-ranging applications in the semiconductor industry, particularly in lithography processes. Lithography is a key step in chip and integrated circuit manufacturing, where a photosensitive layer, known as photoresist, is used to define patterns and structures on the chip. Silane gas plays a vital role in improving the adhesion between the photoresist and the wafer surface, ensuring precise pattern transfer and enabling high-precision chip fabrication. Silane’s ability to enhance adhesion facilitates accurate pattern definition and replication during the lithography process, ultimately contributing to the production of high-quality semiconductor devices. During the lithography process, photoresist is coated onto the surface of a silicon wafer to

The application of electronic-grade carbon dioxide in the semiconductor industry

According to media reports, the Suwon District Court in South Korea recently sentenced a former researcher at SEMES to four years in prison for illegally obtaining patent technology related to the company’s semiconductor cleaning equipment and using this technology to manufacture similar tools for export to China. In the semiconductor industry, high-purity (electronic-grade) carbon dioxide is mainly used for cleaning technology and immersion lithography. With the increasing number of cleaning procedures in Fab factories, the demand for high-purity (electronic-grade) carbon dioxide in China will also increase in the future. Chip cleaning used to be simply immersing the chip in a cleaning solution. However, from FinFET to GAA structure, advanced DRAM and 3D-NAND,

Fire hazard and prevention in the chemical reaction process(Ⅲ)

8. Chlorination     The process of replacing hydrogen atoms in organic compounds with chlorine atoms is called chlorination. Such as using methane to make methane chloride, benzene chlorination to make chlorobenzene, etc. Commonly used chlorinating agents are: liquid or gaseous chlorine, gaseous hydrogen chloride and various concentrations of hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid chlorine (phosphorus oxychloride), phosphorus trichloride (acyl chloride used to make organic acids), sulfuryl chloride (dichlorosulfur acyl), hypochlorite, etc. Hazard analysis and fire prevention points in the chlorination process:     (1) The fire hazard of the chlorination reaction is mainly determined by the nature of the chlorinated substance and the conditions of the reaction process. Most of the raw materials used in the reaction process are organic
