Description

Be applied to annealing encapsulated method based on gallium nitride material
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of semiconductor device, particularly a kind of annealing encapsulated method that is applied to based on gallium nitride material.
Background technology
In the middle of semiconductor device and integrated circuit production technology, need often carry out annealing process.Annealing process mainly is to form to electrically contact the interface between semiconductor and metal, i.e. ohmic contact interface, and this technical process also is known as process annealing or sintering.In gallium nitride HFET device making technics, annealing process usually is used for realizing the ohmic contact of the source and drain areas of device.
For field-effect transistor, the grid length of device plays crucial effect to Devices Characteristics (especially high frequency characteristics).And for X-band GaN HFET device, the long requirement of grid reaches pattern of sub-micron level.At present, electron beam lithography (being also referred to as the e-beam direct-writing exposure technology) technology has the high and alignment precision advantages of higher of resolution, is the method for a kind of maturation and stable formation sub-micron lines.The e-beam direct-writing exposure technology does not realize the concrete reticle that common photoetching is required, and it is directly to read layout data from computer, according to the domain that designs on computers, as doing the picture required figure that draws with pen on substrate.This " pen " is exactly the electron beam that electron beam adhesive is reacted.E-beam direct-writing exposure can be made the fine lines of 0.1 micron even tens nanometers, and because has high overlay alignment precision by computer control.
Yet the basis that electron beam lithography technology has above-mentioned advantage is that high-quality electron beam overlay mark will be arranged, and makes the other parts of electron beam lithography figure and device realize accurate alignment.The electron beam overlay mark is produced on the backing material prior to electron beam lithography, and its effect is similar to the ordinary optical photoetching, be make the electron-beam direct writing figure with substrate on figure carry out accurate localization.Electron-beam lithography system is that the surface of good pattern will be arranged for the basic demand of overlay mark, because electron-beam lithography system is to rely on the electronic signal of mark metal surface reflection to recognize mark position.If the quality of electron beam overlay mark can not reach standard, cause the big hand useful signal of noise signal in the signal of mark metallic reflection, electron-beam lithography system can not accurately be recognized mark position.Electron beam lithography technology can not be carried out smoothly this moment, even all that has been achieved is spoiled to make ready-made work.Therefore the making of electron beam lithography mark is the basis in the X-band GaN HFET device technology.
Forming in the GaN HFET device technology of grid line bar with direct electronic beam writing technology of routine, for the accurate alignment of acquisition source leakage metal and grid, common processing step is as follows:
1. e-beam direct write lithography or ordinary optical photoetching, form the electron beam overlay mark, and evaporation mark metal, metal component is generally Ti/Au=200/1000 , and (to leak metal different with the source, can not form ohmic contact, but the high temperature that can stand to anneal and keep the pattern good);
2. (is benchmark with the electron beam overlay mark) e-beam direct write lithography source leakage graphic, and evaporating drain and source metals;
3. annealing makes the source leak metal and backing material forms good Ohmic contact;
4. active area isolation;
5. (is benchmark with the electron beam overlay mark) electron-beam direct writing is made the grid line bar, leaks metal with the source and realizes accurate alignment;
6. evaporate the grid metal.
As can be seen, electron beam exposure is that benchmark carries out accurate alignment with the alignment mark from above processing step.Though electron beam exposure has the high and high advantage of alignment precision of resolution, because it adopts direct writing technology, the time for exposure is longer relatively.In the 2nd step in above technology,, utilize direct electronic beam writing technology to carry out photoetching and will spend a large amount of time because source leakage graphic area is bigger.
But, make, utilize the source to leak metal simultaneously if all adopt ordinary optical to expose the step of the 1st, 2 in the above technology, only carry out the once electron beam alignment as electron beam mark metal, to save a large amount of process times, and can not sacrifice the advantage of e-beam direct-writing exposure.
Yet for GaN HFET device technology, metal ohmic contact is leaked in the source of the Al/Ti/Au of its use system, anneal under 700 ℃ to 800 ℃ even 900 ℃ of conditions, could form desirable ohmic contact.Under this temperature, the metallic surface pattern is leaked with general variation in the source, electron beam exposure system is normally recognized, thereby can't be carried out the photoetching of grid line bar again.
Summary of the invention
The invention relates to a kind of being applied in the gallium nitride semi-conducting material device making technics such as (GaN-Gallium Nitride); the method of solution electron beam exposure overlay mark protection when high annealing is the new process that forms in finishing country " 973 " problem " research of X-band GaN HFET (Hetero junction FieldEffect Transistor HFET) device " process.
To reduce the process time and form excellent marker metal surface this a pair of contradiction of pattern in order to solve, we have proposed a kind of effective method: be applied to the annealing encapsulated method based on mark metal coating in the electron beam exposure of broad stopband material devices such as gallium nitride.
The present invention is the annealing encapsulated method that is applied to based on gallium nitride material; mainly be electrically connected (source leakage ohmic contact) drain-source metal partly in the device simultaneously with the metal of marking with forming; having made mark metal and source at the same time leaks after the metal; deposition medium on the drain-source metal; carry out annealing process again, to reach the purpose of protection mark metal.This method is used for the making of HFET device, and specifically comprises the steps:
The key step of this method comprises:
1. ordinary optical method photoetching electron beam overlay mark and source leakage graphic; Evaporating drain and source metals, metal component are Al/Ti/Al/Ti/Au=200/300/900/400/800  (metal component when not taking the annealing encapsulated method is Al/Ti/Al/Ti/Au=200/300/900/400/2000A);
Optical lithography forms the electron beam mark and metal area is leaked in the source, deposition metal ohmic contact (Al/Ti/Au is a metal);
2. deposit SiN or Si0 deielectric-coating, thickness is 3000 ;
3. annealing, temperature is 700-730 ℃, makes the source leak metal and backing material formation good Ohmic contact;
4. be etched away SiN or SiO deielectric-coating;
5. active area isolation;
6. (leaking metal with electron beam overlay mark and source is benchmark) electron-beam direct writing is made the grid line bar, leaks metal with the source and realizes accurate alignment; Electron beam lithography grid version;
7. evaporate the grid metal;
8. wiring.
The annealing encapsulated method that this is applied to based on gallium nitride material is the method that is applied in the gallium nitride semiconductor material HFET device making technics.

By adopting the method for leaking deielectric-coating such as deposition SiN or SiO on the metal in the source, and choose suitable metal component, even after annealed, the source is leaked the metallic surface pattern and is still kept good, can be used as the electron beam overlay mark, recognized by electron-beam lithography system smoothly, and make annealing temperature reduce about 100 ℃ (temperature when same metal component is not taked encapsulating method annealing is 780-830 ℃).The method has been given full play to the advantage of electron beam lithography, and has reduced the process time, has improved operating efficiency.
The purpose of this method is; utilize the e-beam direct write lithography technology to reach in the middle of the GaN HFET device technology of accurate alignment at needs; a kind of method by deposition medium before annealing is provided; when substrate carries out annealing process, the method for the necessary overlay mark metal of protection e-beam direct-writing exposure.By this method, can make the source leak metal after annealing process, can obtain the good metal pattern, make it to substitute the overlay mark of e-beam direct-writing exposure, save the process time, shorten the effect of process cycle thereby reach.
