Trench Coverage Characteristics of Polysilicon Deposited by Thermal Decomposition of Silane

Abstract
Trench coverage of polysilicon deposited under low pressure using a SiH4–PH3–He system is investigated. The trench coverage becomes poorer with increasing SiH4 or PH3 partial pressure. This phenomenon is explained by assuming the contribution of Si2H6 formed by the polymerization of SiH4 in the gas phase to polysilicon deposition.
