Research abstract
THE ABILITY TO CONTROL UNWANTED IMPURITY LEVELS DURING ELECTRONIC DEVICE FABRICATION IS ESSENTIAL TO ESTABLISHING THE DESIRED PROPERTIES FOR DEVICE RELIABILITY. IN PHASE I ULTRAMET WILL DEMONSTRATE THE FEASIBILITY OF DEPOSITING THIN, ULTRA-HIGH PURITY FILMS OF BN, TIB2, NBN AND SIC ON FUSED SIO2 CRUCIBLES. A SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF PHASE I WILL RESULT IN METALLIC IMPURITIES IN THE COATINGS OF 5PPM AND COATING ADHERENCE UNDER CYCLIC CONDITIONS FROM ROOM TEMPERATURE TO 1300 DEG C. BASED ON THE EXTENSIVE CVD EXPERIENCE AT ULTRAMET, WE FEEL THAT THIS PROGRAM HAS A VERY HIGH PROBABILITY OF SUCCESS.
