Description

The method of metallic aluminium filling perforation
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of manufacturing methods of semiconductor integrated circuit, more particularly to a kind of side of metallic aluminium filling perforation Method.
Background technology
In power discrete device and power integrated circuit, usual power device is needed through high current, so needing thickness Aluminium technique, metallic aluminium process for filling hole are widely used.
The metallic aluminium deposited with physical vapour deposition (PVD) (PVD) method is compared with tungsten plug, and resistivity is low, and the RC retardation ratio of circuit is small, And the integrated process of metallic aluminium is simple, and at low cost, metal can be contacted and once be completed with metal interconnection by metallic aluminium, not need class Quarter or chemical mechanical grinding (CMP) technique are returned like tungsten plug technique, saves equipment and resource.Namely when using tungsten plug technique, It needs to form tungsten in metal contacts corresponding through-hole, quarter or CMP process is used back to remove the tungsten outside through-hole later It removes;Metallic aluminum is being formed later, metallic aluminum graphically forms the metal interconnection structure of corresponding metal layer.And use metal When aluminium process for filling hole, metal, which contacts corresponding through-hole, individually tungsten to be used to fill, but directly aluminium is used to fill, subsequently Metal interconnect corresponding metal layer and also use aluminium, therefore metal can be contacted and metal interconnection is primary completes.
But the main difficulty of metallic aluminium filling perforation is that step coverage is not high, when metal aluminium film crosses over substrate surface Step when, ideal situation can be deviateed, film is partially thin or crack and cavity occurs, and step coverage directly affects leading for metal line Electrically, determine circuit whether efficient operation.The metal layer current loading of top layer is big, and conducting wire heat dissipation capacity is also big, if Step Coverage Rate is low, then the current density by conducting wire is just high, conducting wire is easy for fusing;Meanwhile step coverage is low, contact resistance can become Greatly, the delay of circuit and power consumption also can accordingly increase.Moreover, metal cladding thickness is uneven on step, electromigration easily occurs The cavity of generation.
As shown in Figure 1, being the first pattern photo of the through-hole of the method formation of existing metallic aluminium filling perforation;Interlayer film 101 It is formed in semiconductor substrate such as surface of silicon, is formed by the through-hole 102 across interlayer film 101 in interlayer film 101, is adopted later With the disposable deposited metal aluminium 103 of PVD, PVD generally use sputtering technologies complete the deposition of metallic aluminium.The through-hole 102 cuts open Face structure is divided into two parts up and down, and the side of lower part is constant for the opening diameter of vertical structure and the lower part, upper part Side is arc-shaped and the opening diameter of the upper part becomes larger.The size of through-hole 102,102 bottom of through-hole have been marked in Fig. 1 The width in portion isHighly it isThe height of the upper part of through-hole 102 isThe width of the top of through-hole 102 Degree isWhen metallic aluminium 103 deposits, the interlayer film 101 in the outside of the bottom surface of through-hole 102, side and through-hole 102 Surface growth rate it is different, wherein the growth rate in the side of through-hole 102 is minimum so that step coverage is low;In Fig. 1 It shows, the thickness of the metallic aluminium 103 formed in the bottom surface of through-hole 102 isIn the bottom surface of through-hole 102 The thickness of the metallic aluminium 103 of upper formation isThe metallic aluminium formed on the surface of the interlayer film 101 of the outside of through-hole 102 103 thickness isStep coverage is about 37%.
It, can be after the top of through-hole 102 formation metallic aluminium 103 closes up if 103 continued growth of metallic aluminium in Fig. 1 Cavity.As shown in Fig. 2, being second of pattern photo of the through-hole of the method formation of existing metallic aluminium filling perforation;Sky is shown in Fig. 2 Hole 104, this is also as caused by step coverage is low.
