Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor technology method, be specifically related to a kind of method making the zero layer photo-etching mark of the high pressure resistant device of without hindrance barrier.
Background technology
Now semiconductor power application in there is a kind of novel semiconductor device, this semiconductor device can either improve puncture voltage can reduce again conducting state under resistance.It has the PN post layer be alternately arranged, and plays the effect of the super junction (super junction) as drift layer.
The method of etching and filling deep trench in super junction MOS transistor manufacture process, grow one deck n-type epitaxial loayer (monocrystalline silicon) on n+ type silicon substrate, then one or more layers oxide-film of deposit or nitride film on this epitaxial loayer, etch deep trench again, and carry out selective epitaxial with p-type monocrystalline silicon and fill this deep trench, finally use cmp (CMP) technique to carry out surface planarisation.Now this deep groove structure is as p-type semiconductor post, and the both sides of this deep groove structure, as n-type semiconductor post, namely obtain the p-type and n-type semiconductor post that are longitudinally alternately arranged.
In said method in monocrystalline silicon selective epitaxial process, need to improve fillibility and the etching gas introduced can cause the lateral etching of the monocrystalline substrate top oxide layer exposed of deep trench both sides and produce undercut, silicon substrate now in otch exposes, subsequently again can fill by silicon epitaxy.Because this part epitaxial loayer is present in oxide-film lower surface, and silicon substrate forms one, and horizontal direction extends along the part of groove dorsad, is difficult to remove in planarization process.Remove technique at subsequent oxidation film, if the epitaxial loayer be filled in inside this part otch is not removed, silicon ridge will be formed in the both sides of groove, affect some electric property of device.
If carry out photoetching and the etching of deep trench by the method on barrier layer, cannot guarantee that silicon ridge can be removed, the assembly of one or more layers oxide layer or nitration case therefore cannot be used to be used as the barrier layer etched.
Zero layer photo-etching mark is generally adopt first to expose, develop, and then produce through the method for over etching, its surfacial pattern region must keep certain offset (step height), and this mark normally could work on mask aligner.And high pressure resistant device is owing to being directly carry out deep plough groove etched on a silicon substrate and form figure, and then fill deep trench by epitaxy technology, due to the existence of barrier without hindrance in zero layer cursor graphic, can cause while filling deep trench, epitaxial loayer also can be filled in the figure of zero layer photo-etching mark, and deep trench filler and silicon substrate are all monocrystalline, in follow-up cmp flow process, owing to causing offset too little without high selectivity, this photo-etching mark is beyond recognition, cause in follow-up technique, using this zero layer figure, for the aligning of subsequent film brings difficulty, affect the smooth and easy of technological process, and then the yield of product can be affected.
As shown in Figure 1, zero layer photo-etching mark fill by epitaxial loayer (EPI), be beyond recognition.
