Description

Remove the method for the photoresist layer after high dose ion is injected
Technical field
The present invention relates to semiconductor fabrication process, relate in particular to a kind of method of removing the photoresist layer after high dose ion is injected.
Background technology
At present, integrated circuit from each chip of the sixties only tens devices develop on each present chip and can comprise approximately 1,000,000,000 devices, integrated circuit why can develop rapidly, very crucial effect has been played in the support of photoetching technique.Because it has directly determined the physical size of single semiconductor devices, so the level of photoetching technique has become one of most important factor determining semiconductor devices integrated level.
The basic technology of photoetching technique generally includes gluing, exposure and the large step of development three.The object of coating technique be wafer surface set up thin and even, do not have a defective photoresist layer.Exposure is by exposure lamp or other radiating light sources, the figure on photomask to be transferred on photoresist layer.After exposure, device or circuitous pattern are recorded on photoresist layer with the form of exposure and unexposed area.The pattern of post-develop mask is just fixed on photoresist layer.
After photoetching process, can photoresist layer be that mask carries out etching technics or ion implantation technology.
After wet etching, dry etching or Implantation, the photoresist of wafer surface all needs to remove.
Photoresist layer be one deck organic matter layer its through being usually used in the manufacture of integrated circuit, it can with an organic solvent, remove such as acetone, 1-METHYLPYRROLIDONE (NMP) etc.But after the ion implantation technology step of high dose, it is difficult to remove by above method.
In prior art, also there is the trial that the photoresist layer after the Implantation step at high dose is removed.For example use the method for oxygen-containing gas ashing photoresist layer and wet etching erosion.The chemical solvent that wherein wet etching erosion is used comprises the potpourri (Sulfuric-peroxide mixture(SPM) of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide) or NMP.But the surface of wafer can be subject to the infringement of oxygen-containing gas when removing photoresist by this method, in addition because LDD region is very close to the surface of wafer, so such infringement need to be avoided.
Also there is the trial of the photoresist after the Implantation that uses the SPM solution with high volume ratio to remove high dose.But the method is grown, is needed very high temperature of reaction and produce little effect the removal of photoresist layer is consuming time.So need a kind of method that photoresist after high dose ion is injected thoroughly can be removed.
Summary of the invention
In view of above problem, the invention provides a kind of method of removing the photoresist layer after high dose ion is injected, comprise step: a) in Semiconductor substrate, form successively protective seam, mask layer and photoresist layer; B) described in patterning photoresist layer to define mask layer described in Implantation region expose portion; C) wet method is removed the mask layer of described exposure; D) described substrate is carried out to Implantation; E) mask layer of further wet method removal between protective seam and described photoresist layer is to expose the interior zone of described photoresist layer; F) wet method is removed described photoresist layer.
