However in above-mentioned technique, have the following deficiencies:
Using dry etching return carve oxide 1-1 when, due in each channel hole return carve depth it is uneven, cause
The depth that subsequent polysilicon plug deposits in each channel is uneven, i.e., deposit depth is inconsistent;And polysilicon plug is heavy
Product depth will affect the cut-in voltage (Vt) of top selection gate (TSG);The deposit depth of polysilicon plug in multiple channel holes
The inconsistent cut-in voltage that will lead to top selection gate (TSG) is unevenly distributed.
With specific reference to shown in Fig. 2, wherein the height of top selection gate (TSG) to oxide top is defined as H3 (BL-
B), the height and at the top of oxide top to polysilicon plug is defined as H2 (BL-T), the unlatching electricity of top selection gate (TSG)
Press (Vt) higher for the susceptibility of H2/H3, the inconsistent of ratio leads to selection gate (TSG) cut-in voltage at the top of each section
It is inconsistent, as shown in Figure 3.
This inconsistent performance that will affect 3D nand flash memory entirety, therefore, how to effectively control the filling of oxide and
The depth consistency of etching and polysilicon plug is endeavoured always the direction of research by those skilled in the art.
Summary of the invention
It is deep by improving the purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of polysilicon plug forming method for improving depth consistency

The extra photoresist in removal top.
Further, the oxide, which is filled with, fills (ALD) using atomic layer deposition method.
Further, the planarization process is using chemical mechanical grinding processing (CMP).
Further, the plug oxide is ethyl orthosilicate (TEOS).
Further, the polysilicon for forming plug that deposits is using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD).
Further, the photoetching critical size is 40nm bigger than the critical size of existing polysilicon plug;And Aligning degree
(OVL) it is less than 15nm.
Compared with prior art, the beneficial effects are mainly reflected as follows:
First, since there is no use go back to the step of carving plug oxide, polysilicon plug bottom to top selection gate
(TSG) height is exactly the thickness after plug oxide deposition film, and therefore, depth consistency is more preferable in each channel hole.
Second, and polysilicon plug itself is using the thickness of the polysilicon film of low-pressure chemical vapor deposition, therefore, each ditch
The depth consistency of polysilicon plug is more preferable in road hole.
Third forms p type polysilicon matrix by the way of the injection of p type Doped ions, for controlling top selection
