Deposition rates, wet etch rates, and thickness uniformity experiments were performed using O3/TEOS thermal chemical-vapor deposition. Our results for oxide deposition show optimum process window around 200 Torr for producing films of good quality ~uniformity and material properties!. This is in excellent agreement with the modeling predictions over a broad range of pressure ~100–600 Torr! and ...

We present a comparison of models describing the pyrolytic deposition of SiO2 with a low pressure chemical vapor deposition process. In order to meet industrial simulation requirements, e.g. accuracy and fast delivery of results, we present an overview of established and new models, their use within TCAD applications, and their best results which have been obtained by calibrations according to ...
