In the present embodiment, the material of the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 can be titanium nitride.
In the present embodiment, the thickness range that can control the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 isOn the one hand, the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 is enable to be completely covered on each groove Each surface, on the other hand, prevent the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and 127 thickness of the first diffusion barrier layer too big, influence subsequent The filling of each groove.
In the present embodiment, the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and first can be formed using physical gas-phase deposite method (PVD) and is expanded Dissipate barrier layer 127.The physical vaporous deposition can use vacuum evaporation, sputter coating (sputtering method), arc plasma A variety of methods such as body plating, ion film plating and molecular beam epitaxy carry out.In the present embodiment, it can specifically be carried out using sputtering method.
It when physical vaporous deposition is carried out using sputtering method, is made under the conditions of the certain vacuum of filling with inert gas Inert gas carries out glow discharge, and at this moment intert-gas atoms are ionized into inert gas ion, and inert gas ion is in electric field force Under the action of, accelerate bombardment to plate the cathode targets (such as titanium nitride target) of material production, target can be sputtered out and deposit To the bottom and side wall surface of the first groove 1100 and the second groove 1200.If claiming d.c. sputtering using direct current glow discharge, Using claiming radio-frequency sputtering caused by radio frequency (RF) glow discharge, using claiming magnetron sputtering caused by magnetic-control glow discharge.It sputtered The conversion of Cheng Hanyou momentum, so the particle sputtered is directive.
Physical vaporous deposition process is simple, and pollution-free to enhancement of environment, consumptive material is few, and form a film even compact and binding force By force.Also, since physical vaporous deposition step coverage is lower, each first diffusion barrier layer of formation is located at each recessed The segment thickness of groove sidewall is smaller, therefore, there is no need to each recessed to expand using other techniques (such as anti-reflecting layer formation process) The opening size (improve the filling capacity of subsequent technique) of slot, to save processing step.
But due to the feature of material and method itself, 117 He of the first diffusion barrier layer of physical vaporous deposition formation There is biggish shrinkage stress inside first diffusion barrier layer 127, cause to be formed by the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first expansion It dissipates in barrier layer 127, the thin situation in thick middle both ends easily occurs (in general, each first diffusion positioned at the part of corresponding recesses bottom Barrier layer is located in the part of each bottom portion of groove, middle section can 50~70%) thicker than both ends, as shown in Figure 6.Also, by It is lower in the step coverage of physical vaporous deposition, therefore, the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 It is less than the thickness positioned at corresponding recesses bottom in the thickness of corresponding recesses side wall, causes the metal in subsequent metal grid easily along grid The case where pole two sides are spread.And since the step coverage of physical gas-phase deposite method is lower, and positioned at each bottom portion of groove To middle shrinkage, the reason of the two aspects, causes the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 jointly for part Part at each groove base angle is most thin, i.e. the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 are located at each bottom portion of groove Part be in " bow " shape, as shown in fig. 6, therefore, if the gold only by this scheme formation diffusion barrier layer, in subsequent metal grid Category is easiest to be diffused (while being also easy to be diffused along metal gates two sides) along the base angle of each groove.
In summary it is found that the metal in metal gates is easiest to be diffused along the base angle of each groove, and it is easy edge The problem of grid two sides are spread.And through this embodiment provided by forming method, can obtain preferably solving described problem, Concrete reason is please continue to refer to this specification subsequent content.
Referring to FIG. 7, using sputtering method to the part of groove notch shown in described first diffusion barrier layer face Fig. 6 into The processing of row ion bombardment.Specifically, using sputtering method to the portion of 117 the first groove of face of the first diffusion barrier layer, 1100 notch Divide and carry out ion bombardment processing, using sputtering method to the part of 127 the second groove of face of the second diffusion barrier layer, 1200 notch Carry out ion bombardment processing.
Since in ion bombardment processing, being controlled with direction by direction of an electric field for ion (is applied direction control by voltage System), therefore, ion bombardment processing has directionality (anisotropy).It is short with two in first active region in Fig. 6 Dotted line (not marking) shows the position of 1100 notch face of the first groove, squeezes into 1100 bottom of the first groove downwards from this these position The ion in portion can cause bombardment to act on the first diffusion barrier layer 127.Likewise, second active region, two short void Line (not marking) shows the position of 1200 notch face of the second groove, squeezes into 1200 bottom of the second groove downwards from this these position Ion bombardment can be caused to act on the first diffusion barrier layer 127.
In the present embodiment, the sputtering method can be carried out at ion bombardment the first diffusion barrier layer using argon ion Reason.The projectile of sputtering is usually positively charged inert gas ion, and with the most use is argon ion.
It has been mentioned hereinbefore that the present embodiment can form the first diffusion barrier layer using physical vaporous deposition, therefore, this Embodiment can use the sputtering method used in above-mentioned physical vaporous deposition and carry out the ion bombardment processing.Due to this Embodiment can use the sputtering method in processes of physical vapor deposition and carry out the ion bombardment processing, therefore, the present embodiment In, the forming step and ion bombardment processing step of first diffusion barrier layer can be carried out in same reaction chamber Suddenly, to save the time, save the cost.In other embodiments, the forming step of first diffusion barrier layer and the ion Bombardment processing step can also carry out in different chambers or equipment, at this point, the ion bombardment processing can individually into Row, but its process and principle can refer to foregoing teachings.
Carrying out the ion bombardment processing using the sputtering method that uses in above-mentioned physical vaporous deposition specifically can be with Including following operation: corresponding sputtering target material being removed or stopped, changes the condition of the sputtering, including apply and the physics The opposite voltage of vapor deposition method process makes corresponding ion counter motion, to keep ion direct by each groove notch The part that each first diffusion barrier layer is located at each bottom portion of groove is bombarded, realizes the ion bombardment processing.Specific mistake Cheng Zhong, it is adjustable so that the bombardment processing uses lesser sputtering bias-voltage, to make the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and first Diffusion barrier layer 127 can be made in the first diffusion barrier layer 117 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 by after corresponding ion bombardment The corresponding particle in portion migrates, but corresponding particle will not escape again to each groove outside or each recess sidewall, but only It is migrated to both ends, even and if guaranteeing that the corresponding particle of small part can be after the evolution of each first diffusion barrier layer, also without enough Energy is mobile to other regions, but equally falls the base angle (sputtering that this process can be considered a kind of low energy) to groove two sides. Relatively long bombardment time is suitably used with this condition, to guarantee by 117 He of the first diffusion barrier layer of bombardment processing In first diffusion barrier layer 127, corresponding particle is sufficiently mobile to the base angle of each notch two sides, and then makes each groove in sufficient shape Finally filled by each first diffusion barrier layer full in base angle.Finally, the present embodiment makes each first diffusion resistance by the sputtering process The case where barrier is located at the part of each bottom portion of groove, the situation thin from script thick middle both ends, becomes both ends thickness middle flat, such as Shown in Fig. 7.
After the ion bombardment processing, the first diffusion barrier layer 117 shown in Fig. 6 is converted into the first diffusion barrier shown in Fig. 7 Layer 118, the difference of the first diffusion barrier layer 118 and the first diffusion barrier layer 117 is, 118 face of the first diffusion barrier layer the The thickness of the part of one groove, 1100 notch is substantially uniform, also, since to be filled up completely full first recessed for the first diffusion barrier layer 118 The base angle of the sufficient shape of slot 1100, therefore the first diffusion barrier layer 118 is located at the thickness maximum of 1100 two sides bottom corner portion of the first groove. Likewise, the second diffusion barrier layer 127 shown in Fig. 6 is converted into the second diffusion barrier layer shown in Fig. 7 after the ion bombardment processing 128, the difference of the first diffusion barrier layer 128 and the first diffusion barrier layer 127 is, 128 face second of the first diffusion barrier layer The thickness of the part of 1200 notch of groove is substantially uniform, also, since the first diffusion barrier layer 128 is filled up completely full second groove The base angle of 1200 sufficient shapes, therefore the first diffusion barrier layer 128 is located at the thickness maximum of 1200 two sides bottom corner portion of the second groove.
In summary, the present embodiment is first with each pseudo- grid structure with sufficient shape bottom, so that guaranteeing to be formed has sufficient shape Then each groove of bottom is formed each first diffusion barrier layer in each groove, and is handled using ion bombardment, so that each first Diffusion barrier layer is located in the part of each bottom portion of groove, and interior thickness becomes uniformly, and two-end thickness increases.As it can be seen that just because of shape At the groove of sufficient shape bottom, therefore, subsequent each first diffusion barrier layer that can form filling groove foot shape bottom, also Be to say, can guarantee in finally formed each first diffusion barrier layer, be located at bottom portion of groove part two-end thickness it is maximum and in Between thickness it is uniform.
Referring to FIG. 8, forming the second diffusion barrier layer on the first diffusion barrier layer after ion bombardment processing.Specifically , the second diffusion barrier layer 119 is formed on the first diffusion barrier layer 118, is formed second on the first diffusion barrier layer 128 and is expanded Dissipate barrier layer 129.
In the present embodiment, each second diffusion barrier layer can be made identical with each first diffusion barrier material, it therefore, can be with Making the material of the first diffusion barrier layer and the second diffusion barrier layer is titanium nitride.
