The Phosphorus Predep furnace (A4) can be used for predeposition of silicon wafers with phosphorus, resulting in N-type doping. In the furnace, the silicon wafers are positioned in a quarts boat.

20 boron doped wafers (p-type) were used - Four wafers for each of the five different predeposition temperatures. In the furnace five dummy wafers were placed on each side of the processed wafers. The dummy wafer nearest to the test wafers were changed in-between the runs to miniminze doping from this dummy wafer.

After the predeposition two wafers from each run were taken out to be further processed. These wafers were: 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, 18.  
After the predeposition two wafers from each run were taken out to be further processed. These wafers were: 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13, 14, 17, 18. These wafers were dipped in BHF to remove the phosphorus glass layer before the drive-in process.  


These wafers were dipped in BHF to remove the phosphorus glass layer before the drive-in process. The drive-in process was made in the Phosphorus Drive-in furnace (A3). At the drive-in process a dummy wafer was placed in-between the wafers from different temperatures so doping from wafer to wafer was minimized. The drive-in was done with the process "DRY1050" with is a dry oxidation at 1050 <sup>o</sup>C for 100 minutes and 20 minutes annealing. At the oxidation was the O<sub>2</sub> flow was 5 SLM, and the N<sub>2</sub> flow for annealing was 3 SLM.

Looking at the 'SIMS Measurement after Drive-in Process at 1050 C' it can be seen that 'Pre-dep at 950 C' and 'Pre-dep at 1000 C' are crossing each other but they should not do that. There have only been meassured on one wafer so there is not that mush statistical data to verify it with.
