It is known that silicon surfaces are roughened with wet processes. It was revealed that light, such as fluorescent light used prevalently in the clean room, surprisingly affects the oxidation of silicon (photoinduced oxidation) and causes roughness (photoinduced roughness). The origin of the roughness was considered to be the large numbers of nano- or sub-nanosize oxides induced by the light illumination. Roughness could be improved by light shading, but we have found that very small hillocks were induced even in a dark ambient environment. In this case, dissolved oxygen in the solution has affected the roughness. The silicon surface is found to be barely roughened even in such alkali solutions as ammonia solutions when processed in an environment without oxygen and light. Moreover, it was found that HF treatment in the absence of light and oxygen has a planarizing effect. |
