Abstract

Three process sequences of borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) reflow have been tested and characterized. A combination of a CVD furnace and rapid thermal annealing has been used to see the impact on the BPSG reflow. Results obtained showed that the RTA process has the potential to compensate for the reduction of the CVD furnace process temperature. SEM micrographs have shown that the new BPSG process sequence exhibits similar glass flow characteristics to the conventional BPSG reflow process. On the other hand, rapid thermal annealing alone is not adequate to completely flow the glass.
