Summary :

Recent progress on photoexcited process applications to fabricating of VLSI and flat panel devices in Japan has been reviewed. The excimer laser melt technique makes it possible to form large-grain poly-Si film on a glass substrate, improving TFT electrical characteristics, and to fill metals into high-aspect-ratio contact holes in VLSI metallization. Scanning of CW laser in poly-Si film led to growth of a single-crystal Si layer on SiO2 to fabricate 3-D (dimensional) devices successfully. Direct writing with pyrolytic reaction was put into practice for interconnection restructuring. In the photochemical process, lower temperature epitaxial growth of Si and dry cleaning of a Si wafer employing Hg lamp irradiation were noted. Directional etching was performed by sidewall film formation, while resolution of better than 0.5 µm was difficult to obtain due to diffraction limit. It was proposed that higher resolution would be obtained by introduction of a nonlinear process which enhanced pattern contrast.
