Defect density is correlated with low etchant concentration and high etch temperature. Cathodic etch experiments indicate that hillocks form under conditions of decreased OH(-) ion concentration. The activation energy for defect formation is 1.2 eV, considerably higher than the energy associated with silicon removal. We propose a mechanism to explain hillock formation that involves nucleation by silicon redeposited from the etch solution. The incidence of hillocks in this model is the result of a competition between the forward and reverse etch reactions. Examination of defects by electron microscopy suggests that growth occurs preferentially on slow - etching planes, in agreement with the model predictions.
