研究目的
Investigating the thermal stability of 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane (FDTS) monolayers on silicon substrates for nanoimprint lithography applications.
研究成果
The thermal stability of FDTS monolayers on silicon substrates was investigated, revealing significant fluorine desorption at higher annealing temperatures. The study provides insights into the degradation mechanisms and useful lifetime estimation of the FDTS monolayer, which is crucial for designing the thermal nanoimprint process for commercial applications.
研究不足
The study is limited to the thermal degradation behavior of FDTS monolayers on silicon substrates under specific annealing conditions. The mechanisms of fluorine coverage loss and the effects of environmental conditions (air vs. inert atmosphere) are explored, but further research is needed to optimize the coating quality and understand the detailed molecular interactions.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study focused on the thermal stability of FDTS monolayers using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The FDTS monolayers were deposited on Si (100) substrates via vapor phase reactions and annealed at various temperatures and times.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Pure (100) silicon wafers were used as substrates. The samples were annealed at 200, 250, and 300 °C in air and in an inert atmosphere.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
XPS (PHI 5000 VersaProbe III) with a monochromatic Al K (alpha) x-ray source, AFM (Asylum MFP-3D), and a video contact angle system (AST VCA-optima) were used.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The substrates were cleaned, FDTS monolayers were deposited, and then annealed. XPS, AFM, and contact angle measurements were performed post-annealing.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
XPS spectra were analyzed using PHI MULTIPAK software. The fluorine coverage was defined as the F 1s/Si 2p total peak area ratio normalized by the sensitivity factor of each element.
