Abstract
Abstract In the present work we investigate the quality of low temperature Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) and plasma treated Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS)-based TSV-liner films. Different designs of Trough Silicon Via (TSV) Test structures with 10μm and 20μm width and a depth of 100μm have been fabricated. Two differently doped silicon substrates have been used – highly p-doped and moderately doped. The results for break-through, resistivity and capacitance for the 20μm structures show a better performance compared to the 10μm structures. This is mainly due to increased liner thickness in the reduced aspect ratio case. Lower interface traps and oxide charge densities have been observed in the C-V measurements results for the 10μm structures.
