The present invention is in the field of processes for the generation of thin inorganic films on substrates, in particular atomic layer deposition processes.
With the ongoing miniaturization, e.g. in the semiconductor industry, the need for thin inorganic films on substrates increases while the requirements of the quality of such films become stricter. Thin inorganic films serve different purposes such as barrier layers, dielectrica, or separation of fine structures. Several methods for the generation of thin inorganic films are known. One of them is the deposition of film forming compounds from the gaseous state on a substrate. In order to bring metal or semimetal atoms into the gaseous state at moderate temperatures, it is necessary to provide volatile precursors, e.g. by complexation the metals or semimetals with suitable ligands. These ligands need to be removed after deposition of the complexed metals or semimetals onto the substrate.

T. Schaub et al. disclose in Organometallics volume 25 (2006) page 4196-4206 the preparation of N-heterocylic carbene nickel complexes.
It was an object of the present invention to provide a process for the generation of inorganic films of high quality and reproducibility on solid substrates under economically feasible conditions. It was desired that this process can be performed with as little decomposition of the precursor comprising the metal as possible before it is in contact with the solid substrate. At the same time it was desired to provide a process in which the precursor is easily decomposed after deposited on a solid substrate. It was also aimed at providing a process using metal precursors which can easily be modified and still remain stable in order to fit the precursor's properties to the particular needs.

R2, R3, R5 and R6 are independent of each other hydrogen, an alkyl group, an aryl group or a trialkylsilyl group,
n is an integer from 1 to 3,
M is Ni or Co,
X is a ligand which coordinates M, and
m is an integer from 0 to 4.

for a film formation process on a solid substrate.
Preferred embodiments of the present invention can be found in the description and the claims. Combinations of different embodiments fall within the scope of the present invention.
In the process according to the present invention a compound of general formula (I) is brought into the gaseous or aerosol state. The ligand L is normally bound to the metal M via the carbon atom which is bond to both nitrogen atoms. In general, this carbon atom has no further substituent in addition to the two nitrogen atoms and the metal atom. That is why such compounds are often referred to as carbene compounds. The ligand L can have a double bond in the five-membered ring, referred to as L1, or not, referred to as L2; L1 is preferred.
R1 and R4 are independent of each other an alkyl group, an aryl group or a trialkylsilyl group, preferably an alkyl group. R1 and R4 can be the same or different to each other.
R2, R3, R5 and R6 are independent of each other hydrogen, an alkyl group, an aryl group or a trialkylsilyl group. In case of L1 the groups R5 and R6 are absent as obvious from general formula (I). Preferably, all R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 of the ligand L together contain up to twelve carbon atoms, more preferably up to eight. More preferably R2, R3, R5 and R6 are hydrogen, which means that if L is L1 then R2 and R3 are hydrogen and if L is L2 then R2, R3, R5 and R6 are hydrogen. Also more preferably R2 and R3 are methyl.
An alkyl group can be linear or branched. Examples for a linear alkyl group are methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, n-butyl, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-decyl. Examples for a branched alkyl group are iso-propyl, iso-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, 2-methyl-pentyl, 2-ethyl-hexyl, cyclopropyl, cyclohexyl, indanyl, norbornyl. Preferably, the alkyl group is a C1 to C8 alkyl group, more preferably a C1 to C6 alkyl group, in particular a C1 to C4 alkyl group, such as methyl or tert-butyl.
Aryl groups include aromatic hydrocarbons such as phenyl, naphthalyl, anthrancenyl, phenanthrenyl groups and heteroaromatic groups such as pyrryl, furanyl, thienyl, pyridinyl, quinoyl, benzofuryl, benzothiophenyl, thienothienyl. Several of these groups or combinations of these groups are also possible like biphenyl, thienophenyl or furanylthienyl. Aryl groups can be substituted for example by halogens like fluoride, chloride, bromide, iodide; by pseudohalogens like cyanide, cyanate, thiocyanate; by alcohols; alkyl chains or alkoxy chains. Aromatic hydrocarbons are preferred, phenyl is more preferred.
A trialkylsilyl group can bear the same or different alkyl groups. Preferably, the trialkylsilyl group bears C1 to C6 alkyl groups, more preferably C1 to C4 alkyl groups. Examples for a trialkylsilyl group with the same alkyl groups are trimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, tri-n-propylsilyl, tri-iso-propylsilyl, tricyclohexylsilyl. Examples for a trialkylsilyl group with different alkyl groups are dimethyl-tertbutylsilyl, dimethylcyclohexylsilyl, methyl-di-iso-propylsilyl.
It is preferred that the molecular weight of the compound of general formula (I) is up to 1000 g/mol, more preferred up to 800 g/mol, in particular up to 600 g/mol.
The compound of general formula (I) according to the present invention can contain from 1 to 3 ligands L, i.e. n is an integer from 1 to 3. Preferably, n is from 1 to 2, more preferably n equals 2. If more than one ligand L are present in the compound of general formula (I), they can be all the same or different to each other. It is further possible that both an L1 and an L2 ligand are present in the compound of general formula (I). Preferably, all ligands L in the compound of general formula (I) are the same. M in general formula (I) is Ni or Co, preferably Ni.
According to the present invention the ligand X in the compound of general formula (I) can be any ligand which coordinates M. If X bears a charge, m is normally chosen such that the compound of general formula (I) is neutrally charged. If more than one such ligand is present in the compound of general formula (I), i.e. m>1, they can be the same or different from each other. If m>2, it is possible that two ligands X are the same and the remaining X are different from these. X can be in any ligand sphere of the metal or semimetal M, e.g. in the inner ligand sphere, in the outer ligand sphere, or only loosely associated to M. Preferably, X is in the inner ligand sphere of M. It is believed that if all ligands X are in the inner ligand sphere of M the volatility of the compound of general formula (I) is high such that it can be brought into the gaseous or aerosol state without decomposition.
The ligand X in the compound of general formula (I) according to the present invention includes anions of halogens like fluoride, chloride, bromide or iodide and pseudohalogens like cyanide, isocyanide, cyanate, isocyanate, thiocyanate, isothiocyanate, or azide. Furthermore, X can be any amine ligand in which the coordinating nitrogen atom is either aliphatic like in dialkylamine, piperidine, morpholine, hexamethyldisilazane; amino imides; or aromatic like in pyrrole, indole, pyridine, or pyrazine. The nitrogen atom of the amine ligand is often deprotonated before coordinated to M. Furthermore, X can be an amide ligand such as formamide or acetamide; an amidinate ligand such as acetamidine; or a guanidinate ligand such guanidine. It is also possible that X is a ligand in which an oxygen atom coordinates to the metal or semimetal. Examples are alkanolates, tetrahydrofurane, acetylacetonate, acetyl acetone, or 1,1,1,5,5,5-pentafluoroacetylacetone. Other suitable examples for X include both a nitrogen and an oxygen atom which both coordinate to M including dimethylamino-iso-propanol. Also suitable for X are ligands which coordinate via a phosphorous atom to M. These include trialkyl phosphines such as trimethyl phosphine, tri-tert-butyl phosphine, tricyclohexyl phosphine, or aromatic phosphines such as triphenyl phosphine, or tritolylphosphine.
Further suitable ligands X are alkyl anions like methyl, ethyl, or butyl anions. Another possible ligand X is hydride. X can also be an unsaturated hydrocarbon which coordinates with the π-bond to M. Unsaturated hydrocarbons include olefins like ethylene, propylene, iso-butylene, cyclohexene, cyclooctene, cyclooctadiene, styrene; and alkynes like ethyne, propyne, 2-butyne. X can also be an unsaturated anionic hydrocarbon which can coordinate both via the anion and the unsaturated bond such as allyl or 2-methyl-allyl. Cyclopentadiene anions and substituted cyclopentadiene anions are also suitable for X. Another suitable example for X is carbonmonoxide CO or nitric oxide NO. It is particularly preferred that one X is NO and the other X are CO. It is also possible to use molecules which contain multiple atoms which coordinate to M. Examples are bipyridine, o-terpyridine, ethylenediamine, ethylenedi(bisphenylphosphine).
Small ligands which have a low vaporization temperature are preferred for X. Particularly preferred ligands X are carbonmonoxide, cyanide, bromide, methyl, ethylene, cyclooctene or 2-butyne. Small anionic ligands which can easily be transformed into volatile neutral compounds upon protonation, for example by surface-bound protons, are preferred for X. Examples include methyl, ethyl, propyl, dimethylamide, diethylamide, allyl, 2-methyl-allyl.
Some preferred examples for compounds of general formula (I) are given in the following table.
Dipp stands for 2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl, COE for cyclooctene, TMS for trimethylsilyl, TIPS for tri-iso-propylsilyl, cp for cyclopentadienyl, PMe3 for trimethylphosphine.
The compound of general formula (I) used in the process according to the present invention is used at high purity to achieve the best results. High purity means that the substance used contains at least 90 wt.-% compound of general formula (I), preferably at least 95 wt.-% compound of general formula (I), more preferably at least 98 wt.-% compound of general formula (I), in particular at least 99 wt.-% compound of general formula (I). The purity can be determined by elemental analysis according to DIN 51721 (Prüfung fester Brennstoffe—Bestimmung des Gehaltes an Kohlenstoff and Wasserstoff—Verfahren nach Radmacher-Hoverath, August 2001).
In the process according to the present invention the compound of general formula (I) is brought into the gaseous or aerosol state. This can be achieved by heating the compound of general formula (I) to elevated temperatures. In any case a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I) has to be chosen. Preferably, the heating temperature ranges from slightly above room temperature to 300° C., more preferably from 30° C. to 250° C., even more preferably from 40° C. to 200° C., in particular from 50° C. to 150° C.
Another way of bringing the compound of general formula (I) into the gaseous or aerosol state is direct liquid injection (DLI) as described for example in US 2009/0 226 612 A1. In this method the compound of general formula (I) is typically dissolved in a solvent and sprayed in a carrier gas or vacuum. Depending on the vapor pressure of the compound of general formula (I), the temperature and the pressure the compound of general formula (I) is either brought into the gaseous state or into the aerosol state. Various solvents can be used provided that the compound of general formula (I) shows sufficient solubility in that solvent such as at least 1 g/l, preferably at least 10 g/l, more preferably at least 100 g/l. Examples for these solvents are coordinating solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, diethoxyethane, pyridine or non-coordinating solvents such as hexane, heptane, benzene, toluene, or xylene. Solvent mixtures are also suitable. The aerosol comprising the compound of general formula (I) should contain very fine liquid droplets or solid particles. Preferably, the liquid droplets or solid particles have a weight average diameter of not more than 500 nm, more preferably not more than 100 nm. The weight average diameter of liquid droplets or solid particles can be determined by dynamic light scattering as described in ISO 22412:2008. It is also possible that a part of the compound of general formula (I) is in the gaseous state and the rest is in the aerosol state, for example due to a limited vapor pressure of the compound of general formula (I) leading to partial evaporation of the compound of general formula (I) in the aerosol state.
It is preferred to bring the compound of general formula (I) into the gaseous or aerosol state at decreased pressure. In this way, the process can usually be performed at lower heating temperatures leading to decreased decomposition of the compound of general formula (I). It is also possible to use increased pressure to push the compound of general formula (I) in the gaseous or aerosol state towards the solid substrate. Often, an inert gas, such as nitrogen or argon, is used as carrier gas for this purpose. Preferably, the pressure is 10 bar to 10−7 mbar, more preferably 1 bar to 10−3 mbar, in particular 1 to 0.01 mbar, such as 0.1 mbar.
In the process according to the present invention a compound of general formula (I) is deposited on a solid substrate from the gaseous or aerosol state. The solid substrate can be any solid material. These include for example metals, semimetals, oxides, nitrides, and polymers. It is also possible that the substrate is a mixture of different materials. Examples for metals are aluminum, steel, zinc, and copper. Examples for semimetals are silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide. Examples for oxides are silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide. Examples for nitrides are silicon nitride, aluminum nitride, titanium nitride, and gallium nitride. Examples for polymers are polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalene-dicarboxylic acid (PEN), and polyamides.
The solid substrate can have any shape. These include sheet plates, films, fibers, particles of various sizes, and substrates with trenches or other indentations. The solid substrate can be of any size. If the solid substrate has a particle shape, the size of particles can range from below 100 nm to several centimeters, preferably from 1 μm to 1 mm. In order to avoid particles or fibers to stick to each other while the compound of general formula (I) is deposited onto them, it is preferably to keep them in motion. This can, for example, be achieved by stirring, by rotating drums, or by fluidized bed techniques.
The deposition takes place if the substrate comes in contact with the compound of general formula (I). Generally, the deposition process can be conducted in two different ways: either the substrate is heated above or below the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I). If the substrate is heated above the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I), the compound of general formula (I) continuously decomposes on the surface of the solid substrate as long as more compound of general formula (I) in the gaseous or aerosol state reaches the surface of the solid substrate. This process is typically called chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Usually, an inorganic layer of homogeneous composition, e.g. the metal or semimetal oxide or nitride, is formed on the solid substrate as the organic material is desorbed from the metal or semimetal M. Typically the solid substrate is heated to a temperature in the range of 300 to 1000° C., preferably in the range of 350 to 600° C.
Alternatively, the substrate is below the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I). Typically, the solid substrate is at a temperature equal to or lower than the temperature of the place where the compound of general formula (I) is brought into the gaseous or aerosol state, often at room temperature or only slightly above. Preferably, the temperature of the substrate is at least 30° C. lower than the place where the compound of general formula (I) is brought into the gaseous or aerosol state. Preferably, the temperature of the substrate is from room temperature to 400° C., more preferably from 100 to 300° C., such as 150 to 220° C.
The deposition of compound of general formula (I) onto the solid substrate is either a physisorption or a chemisorption process. Preferably, the compound of general formula (I) is chemisorbed on the solid substrate. One can determine if the compound of general formula (I) chemisorbs to the solid substrate by exposing a quartz microbalance with a quartz crystal having the surface of the substrate in question to the compound of general formula (I) in the gaseous or aerosol state. The mass increase is recorded by the eigen frequency of the quartz crystal. Upon evacuation of the chamber in which the quartz crystal is placed the mass should not decrease to the initial mass, but about a monolayer of the residual compound of general formula (I) remains if chemisorption has taken place. In most cases where chemisorption of the compound of general formula (I) to the solid substrate occurs, the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) signal (ISO 13424 EN—Surface chemical analysis—X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy—Reporting of results of thin-film analysis; October 2013) of M changes due to the bond formation to the substrate.
If the temperature of the substrate in the process according to the present invention is kept below the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I), typically a monolayer is deposited on the solid substrate. Once a molecule of general formula (I) is deposited on the solid substrate further deposition on top of it usually becomes less likely. Thus, the deposition of the compound of general formula (I) on the solid substrate preferably represents a self-limiting process step. The typical layer thickness of a self-limiting deposition processes step is from 0.01 to 1 nm, preferably from 0.02 to 0.5 nm, more preferably from 0.03 to 0.4 nm, in particular from 0.05 to 0.2 nm. The layer thickness is typically measured by ellipsometry as described in PAS 1022 DE (Referenzverfahren zur Bestimmung von optischen and dielektrischen Materialeigenschaften sowie der Schichtdicke dünner Schichten mittels Ellipsometrie; February 2004).
Often it is desired to build up thicker layers than those just described. In order to achieve this in the process according to the present invention it is preferable to decompose the deposited compound of general formula (I) by removal of all L and X after which further compound of general formula (I) is deposited. This sequence is preferably performed at least twice, more preferably at least 10 times, in particular at least 50 times. Removing all L and X in the context of the present invention means that at least 95 wt.-% of the total weight of L and X in the deposited compound of general formula (I) are removed, preferably at least 98 wt.-%, in particular at least 99 wt.-%. The decomposition can be effected in various ways. The temperature of the solid substrate can be increased above the decomposition temperature.
Furthermore, it is possible to expose the deposited compound of general formula (I) to a plasma like an oxygen plasma or a hydrogen plasma; to oxidants like oxygen, oxygen radicals, ozone, nitrous oxide (N2O), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogendioxde (NO2) or hydrogenperoxide; to reducing agents like hydrogen, alcohols, hydroazine or hydroxylamine; or solvents like water. It is preferable to use oxidants, plasma or water to obtain a layer of a metal oxide or a semimetal oxide. Exposure to water, an oxygen plasma or ozone is preferred. Exposure to water is particularly preferred. If layers of elemental metal or semimetal are desired it is preferable to use reducing agents. Preferred examples are hydrogen, hydrogen radicals, hydrogen plasma, ammonia, ammonia radicals, ammonia plasma, hydrazine, N,N-dimethylhydrazine, silane, disilane, trisilane, cyclopentasilane, cyclohexasilane, dimethylsilane, diethylsilane, or trisilylamine; more preferably hydrogen, hydrogen radicals, hydrogen plasma, ammonia, ammonia radicals, ammonia plasma, hydrazine, N,N-dimethylhydrazine, silane; in particular hydrogen. The reducing agent can either directly cause the decomposition of the deposited compound of general formula (I) or it can be applied after the decomposition of the deposited compound of general formula (I) by a different agent, for example water. For layers of metal nitrides it is preferable to use ammonia or hydrazine. Small molecules are believed to easily access the metal or semimetal M due to the planarity of the aromatic part of ligand L which is the consequence of the conjugation of the two iminomethyl groups to the pyrrole unit in ligand L. Typically, a low decomposition time and high purity of the generated film is observed.
A deposition process comprising a self-limiting process step and a subsequent self-limiting reaction is often referred to as atomic layer deposition (ALD). Equivalent expressions are molecular layer deposition (MLD) or atomic layer epitaxy (ALE). Hence, the process according to the present invention is preferably an ALD process. The ALD process is described in detail by George (Chemical Reviews 110 (2010), 111-131).
A particular advantage of the process according to the present invention is that the compound of general formula (I) is very versatile, so the process parameters can be varied in a broad range. Therefore, the process according to the present invention includes both a CVD process as well as an ALD process.
Depending on the number of sequences of the process according to the present invention performed as ALD process, films of various thicknesses are generated. Preferably, the sequence of depositing the compound of general formula (I) onto a solid substrate and decomposing the deposited compound of general formula (I) is performed at least twice. This sequence can be repeated many times, for example 10 to 500, such as 50 or 100 times. Usually, this sequence is not repeated more often than 1000 times. Ideally, the thickness of the film is proportional to the number of sequences performed. However, in practice some deviations from proportionality are observed for the first 30 to 50 sequences. It is assumed that irregularities of the surface structure of the solid substrate cause this non-proportionality.
One sequence of the process according to the present invention can take from milliseconds to several minutes, preferably from 0.1 second to 1 minute, in particular from 1 to 10 seconds. The longer the solid substrate at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the compound of general formula (I) is exposed to the compound of general formula (I) the more regular films formed with less defects.
The process according to the present invention yields a film. A film can be only one monolayer of deposited compound of formula (I), several consecutively deposited and decomposed layers of the compound of general formula (I), or several different layers wherein at least one layer in the film was generated by using the compound of general formula (I). A film can contain defects like holes. These defects, however, generally constitute less than half of the surface area covered by the film. The film is preferably an inorganic film. In order to generate an inorganic film, all organic ligands L and X have to be removed from the film as described above. More preferably, the film is an elemental metal film. The film can have a thickness of 0.1 nm to 1 μm or above depending on the film formation process as described above. Preferably, the film has a thickness of 0.5 to 50 nm. The film preferably has a very uniform film thickness which means that the film thickness at different places on the substrate varies very little, usually less than 10%, preferably less than 5%. Furthermore, the film is preferably a conformal film on the surface of the substrate. Suitable methods to determine the film thickness and uniformity are XPS or ellipsometry.
The film obtained by the process according to the present invention can be used in an electronic element. Electronic elements can have structural features of various sizes, for example from 100 nm to 100 μm. The process for forming the films for the electronic elements is particularly well suited for very fine structures. Therefore, electronic elements with sizes below 1 μm are preferred. Examples for electronic elements are field-effect transistors (FET), solar cells, light emitting diodes, sensors, or capacitors. In optical devices such as light emitting diodes or light sensors the film according to the present invention serves to increase the reflective index of the layer which reflects light. An example for a sensor is an oxygen sensor, in which the film can serve as oxygen conductor, for example if a metal oxide film is prepared. In field-effect transistors out of metal oxide semiconductor (MOS-FET) the film can act as dielectric layer or as diffusion barrier. It is also possible to make semiconductor layers out of the films in which elemental nickel-silicon is deposited on a solid substrate.
Preferred electronic elements are transistors. Preferably the film acts as contact in a transistor. If the transistor is made of silicon it is possible that after deposition of nickel or cobalt and heating some silicon diffuses into the nickel to form for example NiSi or CoSi2.
