During the thermal oxidation of silicon in atmospheres containing oxygen and chlorine or oxygen and hydrogen chloride, an interfacial phase is formed between the silicon and its oxide. In addition, chlorine is incorporated into the oxide near the interface. Upon further oxidation a gas phase develops at the interface producing bubbles under the oxide. Still longer oxidation results in the growth of “stalactite” structures from the roof of the bubbles.We discuss these observations and present a model that accounts for their appearance in terms of the activities and diffusivities of chlorine and oxygen through the oxide.
