Description

A kind of method for supervising of ion disposing process
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of method for supervising of ion disposing process, more plant,, increase the method for supervising of yields with the real-time assembly processing procedure that improves relevant for a kind of cloth of monitoring low-yield impurity.
Background technology
Along with the semiconductor subassembly development of technology, establishment of component requires also more and more accurate, and is therefore also more and more accurate for the requirement of foreign atom in the degree of depth and distribution.Be traditionally with the thermal diffusion mode with foreign atom or ion by the processing procedure of diffusion into the surface to component internal, can't be applicable to deep-sub-micrometer assembly processing procedure because of the problem of horizontal proliferation.
And ion implantation is that foreign atom is quickened directly to enter in the chip with the pattern of charged ion, the degree of depth that ion is implanted can be controlled with the energy size, impurity dose can be planted the control of time and ion beam current with cloth, can do accurate selection with the analysis magnetic field that cloth is planted machine as for the implant impurity atomic species.
Implanting ions is owing to be to enter chip internal with accelerated mode, can cause lattice to damage or disorder, and then have a strong impact on the semiconductor subassembly parameter; For the ion that makes implantation arrives displacement position, after planting, cloth needs to carry out tempering (annealing) step simultaneously.In the industry cycle widely used at present tempering mode is for using the tempering (RTA) that is rapidly heated, and only needs can finish tempering in about 100 seconds, uses boiler tube then to need several minutes to a few hours.Further reduce tempering time as need, can carry out tempering with laser beam or electron beam.
Referring to Fig. 1, be the cutaway view that a conventional ion cloth is planted machine 29, for process parameter is done correction, except assembly chip 20, also be provided with test chip 22 at board 23.Before production, can rotary machine 23 and make test chip 22 place vacuum state reative cell (chamber) 24 in, and the cloth of accepting ion beam 28 plants, and then test chip 22 moved on to 32a between measurement zone.This test chip 22 of 32a place carries out prompt tempering between measurement zone.After prompt tempering, promptly available laser 33 sees through 50 pairs of test chip 22 measurement of reflectivity of transparency window; Or with four-point probe measurement component characteristic parameter such as face resistance (sheet resistance) etc., can understand the implanting ions result and whether meet demand, if the cloth amount of planting is not enough, then assembly chip 20 is inserted reative cell 24, proceed cloth to plant; If the cloth amount of planting is too many, then adjust process parameter, when next group (batch) processing procedure, reduce the dosage that cloth is planted.
(for<10KeV) the ion disposing process, because ion concentration mostly concentrates on the surface, at the prompt tempering processing procedure, these ions are as easy as rolling off a log to be lost from the assembly surface ease, causes and measures and the error during calibration yet for low-yield.Referring to Fig. 2, in the known calibration process to the measurement result of same process parameter different time.Transverse axis is the different processing procedure date, and the longitudinal axis is the face resistance value that measures.Thus figure as can be seen, for low-yield (for<10KeV) the ion disposing process, known calibrating mode utmost point inaccuracy, and then can have influence on follow-up a large amount of procedure for producing.

Embodiment
Referring to Fig. 3, be the flow chart of the method for supervising of ion disposing process of the present invention, the cloth that the method for supervising of ion disposing process of the present invention can be used for monitoring low-yield N type impurity is planted and is comprised the following step:
S200: the test chip of purchasing;
S202: carry out low-yield N type foreign ion cloth and plant;
S204: use low temperature process on the implanting ions layer, to cover one deck shielding layer;
S206: high temperature prompt tempering is handled; And
S208: measure component parameter.
Wherein in step S202, low energy ion cloth is planted and is meant that cloth plants the cloth of energy under 2KeV and plant condition.Because (for<10KeV) the ion disposing process, because ion concentration mostly concentrates on the surface, in the prompt tempering processing procedure, these ions are as easy as rolling off a log to be lost from the assembly surface ease, causes and measures and the error during calibration for low-yield.In this step, if test chip is a silicon, then N type impurity can be phosphorus (P), arsenic (As) or antimony (Sb).
Be to use low temperature process to cover one deck shielding layer in step S204 on the implanting ions layer, for example can use the PETEOS processing procedure to cover one deck oxide shielding layer on the implanting ions layer, this oxide can suppress implanting ions and overflow from assembly surface.Therefore in follow-up drawing process, the ion that can avoid Yin Gaowen to produce is overflowed, and then has influence on the measurement of component parameter.
Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is an organic molecule, and can form hydrogen bond and physical absorption in chip surface with surface atom.Therefore the TEOS film has good step coverage (stepcoverage).In order to reduce process temperatures, can make electricity consumption slurry enhancing-tetraethoxysilane (PETEOS), its reaction equation is as follows:
Si (OC 2H 5) 4+ O 2→ SiO 2+ other volatile by-product
The heating of electricity slurry
Owing to make electricity consumption slurry assistant heating, so process temperatures can be controlled under 400 ℃, can prevent that also the ion that Yin Gaowen produces from overflowing.
At step S206 is to carry out high temperature prompt tempering to handle, because after implanting ions, the silicon crystalline structure on close surface can be subjected to the impact of high energy ion and be badly damaged, therefore need the processing procedure of a high temperature to make the damage tempering, to recover mono-crystalline structures and to make dopant activation (activation).Need prevent that in activation process impurity from having diffusion phenomena, therefore need under 1000 ℃ high temperature, to carry out prompt tempering.
At step S208 is to carry out component parameter to measure, with the processing procedure of assessment implanting ions.The kind of implanting ions alloy, connect the face degree of depth and concentration of dopant is the key factor that influences component parameter.Four-point probe is that cloth is planted the normal instrument that uses of monitoring in the processing procedure, can measure face resistance, and then obtain the data of the dense element of alloy.Another kind of operable metering system is that (opticalmeasurement system OMS), is to use laser as survey tool to optical measuring system, knows the dense element of alloy by measurement of reflectivity.
For the effect of the method for supervising of verifying ion disposing process of the present invention, the inventor carries out following test experiments:
