  2. MATERIALS: electric behavior semiconductor Insulator conductor

  3. MATERIALI: comportamento elettrico L’ultima banda riempita di elettroni si definisce banda di valenza. La prima banda lasciata vuota si definisce invece banda di conduzione. L'intervallo di energie fra la banda di valenza e quella di conduzione si definisce banda proibita (band gap). Un sistema in cui gli ultimi elettroni hanno la possibilità di spostarsi in livelli energetici molto vicini, infinitesimamente più alti in energia, cioè hanno mobilità elevata è un buon conduttore di elettricità.

  4. SEMICONDUCTORS: electric behavior Fermi-Dirac distribution: occupation probability for the energy level E In semiconductors EF is in the Band-Gap

  5. SEMICONDUTTORI intrinseci: Portatori liberi in cui N(E) rappresenta la densità degli stati energetici in un dato materiale. NC è il numero degli stati disponibili (per cm-3) in banda di conduzione

  6. DOPING ACCEPTOR DONOR EF n-type T effect The Fermi energy moves with doping EF p-type

  7. Materials: Si substrate • Monocrystalline silicon is produced from purified polycrystalline silicon by “pulling” an ingot • polysilicon is melted using radio frequency induction heaters • “seed crystal” of monocrystalline silicon is dipped into melt • silicon grows around structure of seed as seed is slowly withdrawn • Sawed into wafers about 600 microns thick • only a few microns are actually used for IC devices • then etched, polished, and cleaned • stacked in carriers

  8. Also PVD

  9. Materials • Single crystal silicon – SCS • Anisotropic crystal • Semiconductor, great heat conductor • Silicon dioxide is created by interaction between silicon and oxygen or water vapor • Si + O2 = SiO2 or Si + 2H2O = SiO2 + 2H2 • Excellent thermal and electrical insulator • protects surface from contaminants • forms insulating layer between conductors • forms barrier to dopants during diffusion or ion implantation • grows above and into silicon surface • Thermal oxide, LTO, PSG: different names for different deposition conditions and methods • Polycrystalline silicon – polysilicon • Mostly isotropic material • Semiconductor • also a conductor, but with much more resistance than metal or diffused layers • created when silicon is epitaxially grown on SiO2 • commonly used (heavily doped) for gate connections in most MOS processes • Silicon nitride – Si3N4 • Excellent electrical insulator • Aluminum – Al • Metal – excellent thermal and electrical conductor

  10. PHOTOLITOGRAPHY Thick film: 1 mm Photoresist spin.-coating Uv - X-ray EXPOSITION: The mask is transferred to the photoresist

  11. The photoresist chemically reacts and dissolves in the developing solution, only on the parts that were not masked during exposure (positive method). • Development is performed with an alkaline developing solution. • After the development, photoresist is left on the wafer surface in the shape of the mask pattern. Masked photoresist • solvents remove exposed (unexposed) resist • Etching removes material from wafer surface where resist has been removed

  12. Dry etching Wet etching

  20. SOURCE AND DRAINPARASITIC CAPACITANCES

  21. MATCHING You must avoid: D S S D Use always the same MOS orientation in your layout: silicon is anisotropic

  27. INTEGRATED RESISTORS 2 DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS (a)

  28. INTEGRATED RESISTORS 3 DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS (b) • POLYSILICON RESISTORS • Lower coupling with substrate • Up to two shieldings • Top shielding (from noisy metal lines, package coupling….)

  29. INTEGRATED RESISTORS 3

  30. INTEGRATED RESISTORS 4 FACTORS AFFECTING ACCURACY • Poor absolute accuracy (20-40% - large parameter drift) • Good matching (ratio) accuracy (0.1-0.2% - it depends on local parameter variations)

  39. INTEGRATED CAPACITORS • A’ = W’L’= WL – 2 (L+W)Δx = A – P Δx = A (1 - Δx P/A) • The relative reduction of A is constant, given Δx, if the ratio P/A is kept constant (same P/A for matched elements) • Boundary mismatch • The reduction of the capacitance due to the fringe effect is proportional to tox P/A -> (L, W >> tox) (additional source of error) • Thick oxide capacitance contribution (additional source of errors)
