Abstract:
Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) SiN
x films deposited at the substrate temperatures from 20℃to 180℃and at the RF powers from 10W to 30W were investigated. With the increment of substrate temperature, the density, refractive index and Si/N ratio of SiN
x film increase, but deposition rate and H content decrease. With the increment of RF power, the deposition rate, density, the refractive index and Si/N ratio of SiN film increase, but H content decreases. Water vapor permeation (WVP) measurement shows that at the low substrate temperature such as 50℃, the moisture resistance of SiN
x films keeps quite good. It suggest that SiN
x films deposited at low tempera- ture can be applied in Organic Light Emitting Devices (OLED) packaging effectively.
