Description

Improve the method for dual via etch stop-layer overlapping region via etch
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor technology, relate in particular to a kind of method of improving dual via etch stop-layer overlapping region via etch.
Background technology
Development and the integrated circuit (IC) chip trend that proportionally size is dwindled along with semiconductor related manufacturing process, stress engineering role aspect semiconductor technology and performance of semiconductor device is more and more obvious, and stress engineering is widely used in improving on the semiconductor device of transistor carrier mobility.Especially be applied on some special chip types, as complementary metal oxide semiconductors (CMOS) (CMOS, Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) device.
Conventionally, in complicated preparation technology's flow process of cmos device, have various stress, due to progressively dwindling of device size, and the stress of finally staying in device channel region has larger impact to the performance of device.A lot of stress is improved the performance of device, and different types of stress has different influence to the charge carrier in device (being electronics and hole) mobility.For example, on cmos device channel direction, tensile stress is useful to NMOS electron mobility, and compression is useful to PMOS hole mobility.
Via etch stop-layer (Contact-Etch-Stop-Layer, be CESL) stress engineering, in via etch stop-layer film deposition process, by adjusting sedimentary condition, in film inside, adding stress (can be compression, also can be tensile stress), this stress is transmitted in cmos device raceway groove, can exert an influence to the mobility of charge carrier.For example, for nmos device (as shown in Figure 1), when deposition via etch stop-layer film, by adjusting sedimentary condition, in the inner compression that produces of film, this stress is transmitted in nmos device raceway groove, and raceway groove is formed to tensile stress, because the tensile stress on channel direction contributes to improve the electron mobility of nmos device, so the inner via etch stop-layer that keeps compression is useful to the electron mobility of raising nmos device.
Because the stress in raceway groove can cause different impacts to NMOS and PMOS, for example, on cmos device channel direction, tensile stress is useful to NMOS electron mobility, and compression is useful to PMOS hole mobility.So when the stress engineering of utilizing single via etch stop-layer is improved the performance of a kind of device (such as NMOS), always will sacrifice the performance of another kind of device (such as PMOS).In order to improve this negative impact, can adopt dual via etch stop layer process.The flow process of dual via etch stop layer process is as shown in Fig. 2 A ~ 2D.First deposit layer of silicon dioxide film; as the protective film of removing via etch stop-layer; then deposit silicon nitride film that one deck can form tensile stress in raceway groove as via etch stop-layer (as Fig. 2 A); this is improved effect to improving the electron mobility of nmos device, but the hole mobility of PMOS device is had to reducing effect.Then adopt dry method of carving to remove the silicon nitride film of PMOS device area.Can stop (as Fig. 2 B) dry quarter when etching into silicon dioxide protective film.Deposit again afterwards layer of silicon dioxide protective film; so that after dry quarter in process, the silicon nitride film in territory, nmos area is protected; next be the silicon nitride film (as Fig. 2 C) that deposition one deck can form compression in raceway groove, this is conducive to improve the hole mobility of PMOS device.Finally, utilize dry method of carving to remove the compression silicon nitride film (as Fig. 2 D) in territory, nmos area.In the final device architecture forming, in NMOS raceway groove, form tensile stress, in PMOS raceway groove, form compression.Dual via etch stop-layer stress engineering, can improve the electron mobility in nmos device, can improve the hole mobility in PMOS device again.
In dual via etch stop layer process, in the overlapping part of (compression and tensile stress) etching stop layers of two kinds of stress, can bring the problem in follow-up via etch process, as Fig. 3 A ~ 3B describes.In Fig. 3 A, completed dual via etch stop layer process, follow-up layer insulation medium (generally adopting phosphorosilicate glass, i.e. PSG) deposition and chemico-mechanical polishing also complete.Above the polysilicon of the silicon nitride film of two kinds of different stress on a shallow trench, have overlapping.Next can carry out via etch process.As shown in Figure 3 B, through hole A drops on active area, and through hole B drops on the overlapping region of silicon nitride film.Etching for through hole A; first the first step; adopt dielectric between high level/silicon nitride to select the lithographic method of ratio; first through hole can be parked on silicon nitride film (via etch stop-layer); then carry out second step; adopt high silicon nitride/silicon dioxide to select the lithographic method of ratio to carve and wear silicon nitride film; and be parked on silicon dioxide protective film; last the 3rd step; adopt high silicon dioxide/silicon to select the lithographic method of ratio that through hole is opened completely; and be parked on active area silicon and polysilicon, complete via etch.But for through hole B; because it is positioned at the crossover region of two kinds of different stress nitride silicon thin films; there is upper and lower two-layer silicon dioxide protective film in this region; after carrying out second step via etch process; through hole only can be parked in above crossover region on layer of silicon dioxide protective film; this can cause the 3rd step etching to carve completely and wear a layer silicon nitride film, and final through hole B cannot open completely.

Step c: adopt high silicon dioxide/silicon to select the lithographic method etching of ratio to open the first protective film and terminate in the first active area, form the second through hole.
The dual via etch stop-layer of 11. improvement according to claim 1 overlapping region etching method for forming through hole, is characterized in that, the etching formation method of third through-hole specifically comprises:
Step a: adopt dielectric between high level/silicon nitride to select the lithographic method etching of ratio to open layer insulation dielectric layer and terminate in the second stress rete;
Step b: adopt high silicon nitride/silicon dioxide to select the lithographic method etching of ratio to open the second power rete and terminate in the second protective film;
Step c: employing high silicon dioxide/silicon selects the lithographic method etching of ratio to open the second protective film and the first protective film terminates in the second active area, forms third through-hole.
