Abstract

There are void defects in as-grown Czochralski Silicon. Void defects provoke breakdown of thermal oxide in the MOS structure. Therefore it is necessary to study their nucleation mechanism. We had proposed the heterogeneous nucleation model. Recently, homogeneous nucleation model has been proposed by Voronkov. In this paper we examine the problems of homogeneous model quantitatively. We propose that oxide precipitate is the heterogeneous nucleation site.<BR>Carbon is likely to be a candidate for the heterogeneous nucleation site of the oxide precipitate.
