Abstract

To enhance the performance of the Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT), sub-microsecond laser annealing (LA) is propitious to achieve maximal dopant activation with minimal diffusion. In this work, two different lasers are used as annealing resource: a continuous 808 nm laser with larger spot is applied to preheat the wafer and another sub-microsecond pulsed 527 nm laser is responsible to activate the dopant. To optimize the system’s performance, a physical model is presented to predict the thermal effect of two laser fields interacting on wafer. Using the Finite-Element method (FEM), we numerically investigate the temperature field induced by lasers in detail. The process window corresponding to the lasers is also acquired which can satisfy the requirements of the IGBT’s annealing.
