Detailed description of the invention
The present invention provides a kind of shallow groove filling method, can be applicable to technology node be 45/40nm, 32/28nm, less than or equal in the technique of 22nm;Can be applicable in techniques below platform: Logic, Memory、RF、HV。
As Figure 1-4, a kind of shallow groove filling method, wherein, described method includes:
Step S1, offer one are formed with the semiconductor structure of shallow trench;
Step S2, employing high density plasma CVD technique are at described shallow trench Middle filling silica membrane, and make the top of described silica membrane be in described quasiconductor The top distance below of structure;
