The method of measurement of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon cumulative thickness
Technical field
The present invention relates to technical field of manufacturing semiconductors, particularly a kind of method of measurement of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon cumulative thickness.
Background technology
In technical field of manufacturing semiconductors, the finished product semiconductor device comprises basic devices such as a lot of metal-oxide-semiconductors, in order to grasp the process parameter of MOS, measure the thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon accumulation.The method for measuring thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon accumulation is in the prior art: (1), measure the capacitance Cox of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon for ± Vdd according to supply power voltage; (2), calculate the accumulation thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon according to capacitance Cox.Wherein the NMOS pipe is+Vdd, and the PMOS pipe is-Vdd.The computing formula of the accumulation thickness T ox of grid oxic horizon is Tox=ε * ε 0 * A/Cox, and wherein, Cox is the capacitance of grid oxic horizon, and ε is a permittivity of vacuum, and ε 0 is the dielectric constant of SiO2, and A is a capacity area.
This kind method, when the thicker metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon of thickness was measured its capacitance, metal-oxide-semiconductor entered saturation condition under the effect of supply power voltage ± Vdd, and then the measurement of capacitance will be very accurate.But when the metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon of thinner thickness was measured its capacitance, because supply power voltage ± Vdd does not make metal-oxide-semiconductor enter saturation condition, therefore, the capacitance of measurement had very large deviation.Deviation appears in capacitance, and then the calculating of the cumulative thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon is also just inaccurate.The above thickness range of 25 dusts is that thickness is thicker, and the following thickness range of 25 dusts is a thinner thickness.
In sum, the method for measuring thickness of metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon accumulation in the prior art, its shortcoming is: be not suitable for the measurement of the metal-oxide-semiconductor grid oxic horizon of thinner thickness.
