Abstract

Limited reaction processing has been used to grow thin, high quality layers of epitaxial silicon, silicon dioxide, and polycrystalline silicon. Multiple layers of these materials were deposited in – situ to demonstrate control of layer thicknesses, interface transition regions, and interface cleanliness. MOS and p-n junction structures were fabricated which exhibit electrical characteristics comparable to those of devices produced by conventional techniques.
