As an alternative, the semiconductor device comprises a semiconductor wafer (semiconductor slice). For the metal layer, pure Al or an aluminium alloy without Si component is used. In the semiconductor device, a contact hole is entirely filled with the metal. No Si deposit is formed on the surface after a wiring pattern has been applied, and no Al spiking occurs.
Description
The present invention relates to a kind of method of making semiconductor device, more particularly, relate to a kind of method that in semiconductor device, forms a complanation metal level.The present invention is the improvement of common unsettled U.S. Patent application (sequence number is 07/585,218, and the applying date the is September 19 nineteen ninety) theme to the inventor, and the disclosure of this document is cited as list of references in this application.
Along with semiconductor device processing technology develops towards ultra-large integrated (ULSI), metallization processes has more and more determined output, performance (as: speed of service) and the reliability of device, therefore, people regard metallization processes as in the semiconductor device processing technology most important aspect.And for the semiconductor device of the lower prior art of density, aspect ratio (depth-width ratio) big, contact hole is less because they have physical dimension, and characteristic such as ladder is more shallow, is not a very important problem so the metal ladder covers.Yet along with the semiconductor device integration density increases, it is very little that contact hole has become, and the doped layer that forms on the surface of semiconductor chip has become extremely thin simultaneously.With regard to existing high-density semiconductor device, because the aspect ratio of contact hole becomes increasing, the combined cause that the ladder degree of depth becomes increasing, in order to realize the standard design target of semiconductor device high speed performance, high yield, high reliability, be necessary traditional aluminium (Al) metallization processes is improved.More particularly, in the course of processing of existing high-density semiconductor device, the conventional aluminum metallization processes that uses has brought some such problems, as: the reliability reduction that bad ladder covering higher owing to the contact hole aspect ratio and sputtered aluminum causes and the interior connection fault of aluminium; The contact impedance that is caused by silicon (Si) deposition increases; And the shallow junction characteristic that is caused by aluminium peak value (Al spking) reduces.
Provide at present various new technologies to overcome these problems in the conventional aluminum metallization process.For example, following technology has been proposed, reduce owing to connecting the semiconductor reliability that fault causes in the aluminium in order to preventing, wherein, the cause that connects fault in the aluminium be because the contact hole aspect ratio is big and the aluminum metallization process in the bad ladder covering of sputtered aluminum cause.
People's such as Yukiyosu Sugano Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No is 62-132348, announced the conforming method of the film that a kind of improvement forms on the steep ladder of semiconductor device, this method is included in metal wiring layer of (it is positioned on the semiconductor chip) formation on the steep ladder, then in such a way with this wiring layer heat fusing, so that the metal wiring layer complanation.People's such as Shinpei Iijma Japanese patent application, publication number is 63-99546, announced and a kind ofly improved the wiring reliability, and can form the method for multilayer interconnection that wherein metal wiring layer is by its heating and fusing are formed on a substrate with contact hole and ladder.Particularly, people such as Shinpei Iijma have proposed a kind of method of making semiconductor device, this method comprises the following steps: to form a plurality of devices on a semiconductor chip, insulating barrier of deposit on a plurality of devices, in insulating barrier, form the contact hole that can lead to the device predeterminated position, surface at insulating barrier and contact hole forms one deck titanium nitride film, deposit one metallization wiring layer on the whole surface of titanium nitride film, be heated then so that its fusing, flow, thereby make the surface planarization of metal level, and according to this metal surface of wiring pattern etching of design in advance and nitrided iron film to form at least the first wiring layer.
People's such as Masahiro Shimizu Japanese patent application, publication number 62-10341, proposed a kind of can prevent the wiring open circuit, to improve the method for semiconductor device reliability, this method comprises that (for example on a contact hole on dielectric film surface) forms the aluminium conducting film with good spreadability on a certain ladder.
Particularly, people such as Masahiro Shimizu have disclosed a kind of method of making semiconductor device, and this method comprises: be coated with the solution that last layer contains liquid aluminium (or aluminium compound) on silicon chip, then it solidified to form the aluminium conducting film.
According to all above-mentioned methods, can and make it reflux filling contact hole by the fusing aluminum or aluminum alloy.Generally speaking, in reflow step, the aluminum or aluminum alloy metal level is heated to it more than fusing point, molten metal can flow to contact hole and with its filling as a result, and this reflow step exists following shortcoming with not enough.At first, semiconductor wafer must be horizontally disposed with so that contact hole can be flowed, the molten metal material is filled rightly.The second, the liquid-metal layer that flows to contact hole has one than low surface tension, therefore when solidified, thereby may shrink or the crooked bottom semi-conducting material that exposes.Further, can't accurately control heat treatment temperature, so just be difficult to produce again expected result.In addition, although these methods can be come filling contact hole with the deposite metal of metal level, yet the other parts of metal level (contact hole outside) may become coarse, thereby can damage follow-up protective coating processing.So,, then have necessity and carry out the second metal level coating processing for these coarse parts that make metal level become smooth or complanation.
Know at present,, improve semi-conductive reliability, form a barrier layer in the contact hole that can on semiconductor wafer, form by stoping the reduction of the shallow junction characteristic that causes by the aluminium peak value.For example, people's such as Natsuki Yokoyama United States Patent (USP) has been set forth a kind of semiconductor device for the 4th, 897, No. 709, this semiconductor device has a titanium nitride film that forms (barrier layer) on contact hole, in order to prevent the reaction between metal wiring layer and the semiconductor chip.This titanium nitride film can form with a kind of low pressure chemical vapor deposition method, and this low pressure chemical vapor deposition method can realize with a cold mould CVD device.Consequent film has very excellent characteristic, can provide excellent step to cover for the quite tiny hole of wide aspect ratio.After forming titanium nitride film, use aluminium alloy to form a metal wiring layer with sputtering method.
People's such as Clarence J.Tracy United States Patent (USP) has been announced a kind of multilevel metallization processing method for the 4th, 970, No. 176, and it can substitute fusing aluminum or aluminum alloy filling contact hole, and can improve the covering of metal ladder.According to above-mentioned patent, be deposited on the first of metal level predetermined thickness on the semiconductor wafer at low temperatures; Then, temperature is increased to about 400 ℃-500 ℃, this can make metal level reflux when the remainder of deposited metal.This metal level refluxes passes through granularity and increases, recrystallizes and whole diffusion is carried out.
People such as One have disclosed, and when the semiconductor chip temperature was higher than 500 ℃, the fluidity of aluminium-silicon can increase (referring to VMIC conference proceedings in 11 to 12 June of nineteen ninety, the 76th page to 82 pages, people's such as Hisako One paper) suddenly.According to people's such as One result of study, near 500 ℃ the time, the stress of Al-1%Si film meeting flip-flop, and under this temperature, stress decay can appear rapidly in Al-1%Si film.In addition, for filling contact hole satisfactorily, the temperature of semiconductor chip must maintain between 500 ℃-550 ℃.The mechanism difference that promotion metal level in people (4,970, the 176) patents such as this mechanism and Tracy refluxes.
The invention of one of present inventor unsettled being entitled as before the last project of United States Patent (USP) trademark office (U.S.P.T.O) " a kind of method that in semiconductor device, forms metal level " (" AMethed for Forming a Metal Layer in a Semiconductor Device ").This invention relates to a kind of method that forms the metal wiring layer that passes contact hole in semiconductor device, the method comprising the steps of: (below 200 ℃) depositing metal at low temperatures, then temperature be this depositing metal material fusing point 80% to the scope between its fusing point, heating metals deposited material.
Figure 1A, 1B, 1C have provided a kind of method that forms metal level according to foregoing invention, and with reference to Figure 1A, it has provided the process that forms the first metal layer, and contact hole 2 forms on semiconductor chip 10.Then, this substrate is put into (not shown) in the sputter reative cell, in this reative cell, forms the first metal layer 4 by depositing metal (Al or Al alloy), its temperature is below 200 ℃ or 200 ℃, and carries out under predetermined level of vacuum.Layer 4 has the polycrystalline kernel structure.
Figure 1B has described the method for filling contact hole, with reference to Figure 1B, the substrate structure that is obtained by last process is moved to another sputter reative cell (not shown), then, not opening vacuum, temperature is under 550 ℃ the situation, heats at least 2 minutes, thereby makes metal filled contact hole.Simultaneously, the pressure of reative cell is preferably low as far as possible, so that the aluminium atom has higher surface free energy.In this way, metal filling contact hole more easily.Parameter 4a represents the metal of filling contact hole 2.
Heat-treatment temperature range shown in Figure 1B in the process must be between 80% and melting point metal of melting point metal, and changes according to used special aluminum alloy or aluminium.
Because the heat treated temperature of metal level is lower than 660 ℃ of the fusing points of aluminium, so metal level does not melt.For example at 550 ℃, when the heat treatment of higher temperature, these are deposited the aluminium atom sputter below 150 ℃, are not fusing but migration.Can increase this migration when surf zone during inhomogeneous or polycrystalline grain, this is because the cause that the energy of those surface atoms that do not contact fully with atom on every side increases.So, in the heat treatment amount, initial sputter, the polycrystalline granulosa can increase the migration of atom.
Fig. 1 C has provided the process that forms second metal level 5, and especially, second metal level 5 is that the remainder by the required whole metal layer thickness of deposit forms, and its deposition temperature is selected according to the reliability of required semiconductor device.So just finished the formation of whole (compound) metal level.
According to said method, by the use sputtering equipment identical, and cool off depositing metal gradually with the traditional hot sedimentation, just can use metal complete filling contact hole at an easy rate.Even so the contact hole that aspect ratio is very big, also can be by complete filling.
But, when in contact hole, having the space to form or cover when insufficient when the ladder of metal level, although can be with deposit the semiconductor wafer of metal level maintain under a predetermined temperature and the vacuum level, still can't filling contact hole.Further, although second metal level that can on the semiconductor wafer of existing deposit initial metal layer, form subsequently, but still can't guarantee that excellent contact hole ladder covers, so the reliability of the semiconductor device of manufacturing will descend.
In the silicon technology stage the earliest, the contact structures of employing are direct deposit fine aluminiums on silicon.Yet aluminium-silicon contact shows some bad contact performances, as the knot peak value during watering knot (junction spiking).This sintering step is carved at contacting metal film Bei Dian Ji And that pattern carries out later on.For aluminium-silicon contact point situation, this sintering can cause that the natural oxidizing layer that aluminium and silicon face form reacts.As aluminium and thin SiO
2When layer reacts, can produce Al
2O
3If, and be in the good Ohmic contact, this natural oxidizing layer is finally understood full consumption and is fallen.So, the Al of aluminium by generating
2O
3Layer is diffused into silicon face, forms metal-silicon contact closely.Aluminium must pass through Al
2O
3Layer is diffused into remaining SiO
2On.Along with Al
2O
3The increase of layer thickness, it needs the longer time aluminium infiltration.So, if natural oxidizing layer is too thick, Al
2O
3Layer finally also can become blocked up, so that aluminium can't be by its diffusion.In this case, just can not be with all SiO
2Consume, and will produce bad ohmic contact.Al permeates Al
2O
3Speed be the function of temperature, for sintering temperature of allowing and sintering number, Al
2O
3Thickness should be between 5-10 dust scopes.Because maximum Al
2O
3The autoxidation layer thickness of thickness and consumption is the same order of magnitude, so should determine the upper limit of the permission thickness of natural oxidizing layer.The time that silicon face is exposed in the aerobic environment is long more, and natural oxidizing layer is thick more.So, in most of contact layer technologies, be before wafer is placed into the deposition chamber that is used for the metal deposit, to finish the surface cleaning program.
Between 450 ℃-500 ℃ of contact alloy temperature, aluminium absorbs 0.5%-1% silicon.If aluminum layer is heated to 450 ℃, and provide a silicon source, under solution state, aluminium will absorb silicon and reach 0.5wt% (percentage by weight) up to the concentration of silicon so.Semiconductor chip is as this silicon source, when temperature raises, and will be from the silicon of substrate by diffusing into aluminium.If a large amount of aluminium is arranged, will be diffused into the aluminium film from a large amount of silicon under Al-Si interface.Simultaneously, can promptly move from the aluminium of aluminium film and go to fill the space that forms by free silica.If the aluminium length of penetration is greater than the PN-junction depth under the contact-making surface, so, knot can present very big leakage current, even becomes short circuit.This phenomenon is called the PN junction peak value.
In order to alleviate contact-making surface PN junction spike problem, when deposit aluminium, in the aluminium film, add silicon.When making the integrated circuit contact-making surface with interior the connection, extensively adopted aluminium-silicon alloy (silicon is put 1.0 percentage by weights), use aluminium-silicon alloy to substitute fine aluminium and can alleviate the knot spike problem, but unfortunately, this will cause the another one problem again.Say that more specifically in the cooling cycle of annealing in process, the solubility of the silicon in the aluminium can reduce along with the reduction of temperature.So aluminium is with respect to the silicon supersaturation that becomes, this will cause from the silicon of aluminium-silicon solution assembles and precipitation.This Al-the SiO that is deposited in the contact-making surface
2Interface and Al-Si interface will occur.If these are deposited on the contact interface and form and generation n
+Si can cause the increase of undesirable contact impedance so.In addition, at n
+Si precipitation is approximately greater than 1.5 μ places, will produce very big flux divergence (flwx-divergence) in electric current.This will cause losing efficacy owing to the early stage conductor that electron transfer induction open-circuit condition produces.
Fig. 2 has described after the metallization, the silicon precipitation that forms on surface of semiconductor chip.Obviously, these silicon precipitations should be eliminated.Up to the present, can only use sand milling, cross the method for etching or wet etching, perhaps contain the corrosive agent that to eliminate the group of precipitation from substrate, remove siliceous deposits by use.
But when deposited metal at high temperature, the silicon precipitation is difficult for removing.When etching away siliceous deposits with mistake, its figure can be sent to basalis, and these figures can left behind after etching is finished excessively.So the surface quality of semiconductor chip and outward appearance are still bad.
Based on above reason, need a kind of method that can in semiconductor device, form a planar metal wiring layer, it can overcome shortcoming and deficiency in all above-mentioned existing technical processs.This top invention then at can satisfy this requirement.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of improving one's methods of metal wiring layer that form in semiconductor device, wherein, semiconductor device has the contact hole that forms on semiconductor chip.The method comprising the steps of: a kind of metal of deposit, complete filling contact hole then is to obtain reliable metal wiring layer.

2, Ar) or a kind of reducing gas (H
2) environment under carry out.When metal level is heat-treated, move to opening in order to reduce the surface free energy metallic atom.Consequently opening is by metal filled.Along with metallic atom moves to opening, metal surface area can reduce.So the protuberance branch of metal level disappears from the top of opening, it is big that the porch of opening becomes.Therefore, during later deposit second metal level, can obtain good metal layer ladder and cover.
If in above-mentioned heat treatment step, open vacuum, will cause that oxidation forms Al
2O
3Film, this Al
2O
