First process:Using photoetching process, photoresist is exposed, so as to pattern the photoresist;
Second process:Using the photoresist of patterning as mask, using plasma dry etch process, etching bottom anti-reflective Penetrate layer;Here it is possible to using Cl2、HBr、O2、CF4Bottom anti-reflection layer is performed etching Deng etching gas, the etching process is stopped Only on the polysilicon layer;
3rd process:Using plasma dry etch process etches polycrystalline silicon layer;Here, used etching gas can With but be not limited to Cl2、HBr、O2Mixed gas, the etching process stopped on hard dielectric layer;It should be noted that carving During losing polysilicon layer, photoresist or bottom anti-reflection layer are also etched simultaneously, are stopped in the process of etches polycrystalline silicon layer After only, photoresist or bottom anti-reflection layer may be etched away;If photoresist or bottom anti-reflection layer are not etched all Fall, tackle it and be removed;Gas is to contain O used by removing photoresist and bottom anti-reflection layer2Etching gas.
Step S03:One layer of silicon nitride layer is deposited on polysilicon layer surface and hard dielectric layer surface;
Specifically, in the present embodiment, Atomic layer deposition method can be used to form silicon nitride layer, the thickness of silicon nitride layer can With less than 20nm.Specific process parameter employed in deposition process can be set according to actual process requirement, and the present invention is right This is not restricted.
Step S04:Using plasma etching technics, the silicon nitride layer at the top and bottom of polysilicon layer is etched away, formed Silicon nitride spacer;
Specifically, in the present embodiment, can be, but not limited to use comprising CF4、CHF3And CH2F2Mixed gas as carve Erosion gas etching falls the silicon nitride layer at the top and bottom of polysilicon layer, so as to form silicon nitride spacer in the side wall of polysilicon layer. Specific process parameter employed in the etching process can be set according to actual process requirement, and the present invention is not limited this System.
Step S05:Polysilicon layer is removed, so as to form the first small size figure;
Specifically, in the present embodiment, it can use and contain Cl2、HBr、O2Mixed gas as etching gas etch remove Fall polysilicon layer;Herein, selected etching gas are to polysilicon layer and silicon nitride, and to polysilicon layer and hard dielectric layer Selection is than should be higher, so that when etches polycrystalline silicon layer, silicon nitride spacer is not etched.Adopted in the etching process Specific process parameter can be set according to actual process requirement, the invention is not limited in this regard.
It should be noted that the size of the first small size figure here is more than the size of the second small size figure, for example, The thickness of silicon nitride layer is 20nm, then the size of the first small size figure is 20nm, and the size of the second small size figure is then small In 20nm, such as can be 10nm.
Step S06:One layer of silicon oxide layer is deposited in crystal column surface;
Specifically, in the present embodiment, in order to realize smaller line width and dimension of picture, Atomic layer deposition method can be used Silicon oxide layer is formed, in the present embodiment, the thickness of silicon oxide layer is less than 10nm.Specific process parameter employed in deposition process It can be set according to actual process requirement, the invention is not limited in this regard.
Step S07:Using plasma etching technics, the silicon oxide layer at the top and bottom of etch silicon nitride side wall, in nitrogen The side wall of SiClx side wall forms monox lateral wall;
Specifically, in the present embodiment, used etching gas are the mixed gas of fluoro-gas and oxygen, can be bag Containing CF4And/or C4F8And O2Mixed gas, wherein, C4F8Flow be 30-100sccm, CF4Flow be 20- 40sccm, O2Flow be 10-15sccm, but this is not used in limitation the scope of the present invention.
In the present embodiment, used etch process parameters can be, but not limited to following scope:Used reaction pressure For 10-150mTorr, used reaction temperature is 30-80 DEG C, and used etch period is the 10-30 seconds, it is used on Electrode radio-frequency power is 100-400 watts.
Step S08:Using wet-etching technology, silicon nitride spacer is removed, so as to form the second small size figure.
Here, in the present invention, it should use to silicon nitride and polysilicon and the etching of silicon nitride and hard dielectric layer is selected Select and carry out wet etching than high decoction, so, protect monox lateral wall to be not etched while silicon nitride spacer is removed. Specifically, in the present embodiment, used wet etching decoction is hot phosphoric acid solution, preferably, in hot phosphoric acid solution, H3PO4 With H2O mass ratio 70%-90%, used temperature range are 150-170 DEG C.
So, the size of the second small size figure formed is the thickness of silicon oxide film, and the size is less than 10nm, from And the size of the small size figure prepared relative to conventional method is substantially reduced;And this method avoids in preparation process The etching of small size figure is directly carried out, expands process window.
In summary, the preparation method of small size figure of the invention, by using self-registered technology twice, is initially formed Large scale figure, re-form the first small size figure, on the basis of the first small size figure, further using thin film deposition and Etching technics, the second smaller small size figure than the first small size figure is formed, it is achieved thereby that chi smaller than tradition The smaller figure of very little dimension of picture, reduces line width and critical size structure, improves the integrated level of device;And expand technique Window, reduce technology difficulty.
Although the present invention is disclosed as above with preferred embodiment, the right embodiment illustrated only for the purposes of explanation and , the present invention is not limited to, if those skilled in the art can make without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention Dry change and retouching, the protection domain that the present invention is advocated should be to be defined described in claims.
