Embodiment
the first embodiment
Refer to Fig. 3 a to Fig. 3 d, the manufacture method of the cmos device gate oxide of the present embodiment, comprises the following steps:
Step S01, provides a silicon chip, and it has silicon substrate 1 and lip-deep pad silicon dioxide 3(SiO thereof 2); On silicon substrate 1, form shallow channel and pass through CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition, chemical vapour deposition (CVD)) process deposits silicon dioxide, to prepare two shallow trench isolation regions 2; On pad silicon dioxide 3 and shallow trench isolation regions 2, prepare hard mask silicon nitride 4(Si 3n 4); Then, by dry etch process, remove between two shallow trench isolation regions 2 hard mask silicon nitride and pad silicon dioxide to expose the part shallow trench isolation regions 52 at 51 edges, 51Ji active area, active area, the active area 51 of exposing is layer-of-substrate silicon, the part shallow trench isolation regions 52 at the 51Yu Qi edge, active area exposing is equal, so that the generation of subsequent oxidation layer; Then, prerinse is carried out in 51 surfaces, active area, to remove active area 51, C/O of silicon face etc. is residual, as shown in Figure 3 a.Wherein, this prerinse can be suitable for HF, SPM(H 2sO 4, H 2o 2, H 2the mixed liquor of O) or SC1(NH 4oH, H 2o 2, H 2the mixed liquor of O).
Step S02, by boiler tube technique, puts into above-mentioned silicon chip boiler tube and passes into oxygen and steam, makes active area 51 superficial growths go out the silicon dioxide layer 6 that a layer thickness is about 10nm, makes the edge sphering of active area 51, as shown in Figure 3 b.
Wherein, this step can adopt dry oxygen or wet oxygen, and technique can adopt traditional burner plumber skill or ISSG technique (situ steam produces, in-situ steam generation).
Step S03, utilizes wet-etching technology, by the HF solution of 1% concentration, remove the silicon dioxide layer 6 on 51 surfaces, active area, also can etch away the part shallow trench isolation regions 52 at edge, part active area simultaneously, make active area 51 there is the edge of sphering, as shown in Figure 3 c.
Wherein, the principle of this step is: on active area, by boiler tube technique, grow the oxide layer that one deck is thin, in oxidizing process, the silicon of surfaces of active regions is progressively oxidized to silicon dioxide, principle based on growth rate difference between silicon face different crystal orientations, at the oxidation initial stage, growth rate on the edge angle of active area is all higher than end face or side, therefore the silicon at edge, active area is oxidized and form fillet more, increase along with oxidization time, the growth rate of active area end face or side again can be gradually fast than on edge angle, now just there is no to the silicaization at edge, active area the many of end face or side, so fillet can gradually become wedge angle again.Technical scheme of the present invention is exactly first in surfaces of active regions, to generate the thin oxide layer of one deck, after forming rounded edges, the initial stage of oxidation stops oxidation, the oxide layer remove generating again, last at edge sphering surfaces of active regions prepare gate oxide, especially thick grating oxide layer (

left and right), edge, active area is along with the degree that edge comes to a point of carrying out being oxidized while preparing gate oxide just can to offset part, and after having made gate oxide, edge, active area is no longer wedge angle.
Step S04, by boiler tube technique, puts into above-mentioned silicon chip boiler tube and passes into oxygen and steam, and in active area, 51 superficial growths go out the gate oxide 7 that thickness is 100nm, as shown in Figure 3 d.
Wherein, this step can adopt dry oxygen or wet oxygen, and technique can adopt traditional burner plumber skill or ISSG technique (situ steam produces, in-situ steam generation).
In the present embodiment, described " boiler tube technique " and " wet etching " can adopt process means of the prior art, process conditions, technological parameter.
The present embodiment is the gate oxide of preparing high voltage CMOS device, and its thickness reaches
Figure BDA0000426196820000041
(being 100nm).But protection scope of the present invention is not limited only to this, by technique of the present invention, can improve the wedge angle problem at edge, active area in any type cmos device, just to high tension apparatus to improve effect more obvious.Therefore, in other embodiments, preparation method of the present invention is also applicable to other cmos devices, and the thickness of gate oxide also can be adjusted according to actual needs.
In other embodiments, between step S03 and step S04, also comprise that repetition one or many step S02 is to step S03, the technique that repeatedly generates oxide-film and remove, the further edge of sphering active area, improve wedge angle problem, thereby improve the reliability of device grid oxygen.
