As described in the background art, after two deep trenches are formed in a dielectric layer, the dielectric layer between the deep trenches is prone to toppling, which results in inconsistent line widths of the two deep trenches, thereby hindering metal filling of the deep trenches with smaller line widths, affecting the effect of the formed seal ring, and affecting alignment of subsequent processes.

the structure comprises a substrate 100, a stacked structure 110 on the substrate 100 and a dielectric layer 102 covering the surface of the substrate 100 and the stacked structure 110;
forming a first seal ring 104 and a second seal ring 106 in the dielectric layer 102, wherein the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 penetrate through the dielectric layer 102 to the substrate 100, the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 surround the stacked structure 110, and the first seal ring 104 is located between the second seal ring 106 and the stacked structure 110;
a through hole 112 penetrating through the dielectric layer 102 and exposing the substrate 100 is formed in the dielectric layer 102 between the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106, and a filling layer is formed in the through hole 112.
In the embodiment of the present application, the substrate 100 may be a semiconductor substrate, and for example, may be a Si substrate, a Ge substrate, a SiGe substrate, an SOI (Silicon On Insulator) or a GOI (germanium On Insulator). In other embodiments, the substrate 100 may also include other elemental or compound semiconductor substrates, such as GaAs, InP, SiC, etc., as well as stacked structures, such as Si/SiGe, etc., as well as other epitaxial structures, such as SGOI (Silicon Germanium On Insulator), etc. In this embodiment, the substrate 100 may be a silicon substrate.
A stack structure 110 is formed on the substrate 100, and the stack structure 110 may be formed by alternately stacking an insulating layer, which may be silicon oxide (SiO), and a gate electrode layer2) The gate layer may be tungsten (W). Substrate 100 surface and stacked junctionThe structure 110 is covered with a dielectric layer 102, and the dielectric layer 102 may be a single layer or a stacked structure, and may be one or more of Silicon nitride, Silicon oxide, or NDC (Nitrogen doped Silicon Carbide) dielectric materials.
The dielectric layer 102 may have a device structure and an interconnection structure electrically connected to the device structure, the device structure may include a MOS device, a sensing device, a storage device, or other passive devices other than a capacitor, the storage device may include a non-volatile memory, such as a floating gate transistor, a ferroelectric memory, a phase change memory, or the like, such as a NOR flash memory, a NAND flash memory, or the like, the device structure may be a planar device or a stereo device, the stereo device may be a FIN-FET (FIN field effect transistor), a three-dimensional memory, or the like, the sensing device may be a photosensitive device, or the like, and the other passive devices include a resistor, an inductor, or the like. The interconnection structure of the device structure may include contact plugs, vias and wire holes, and the interconnection structure may be a metal material, such as tungsten, aluminum, copper, and the like.
A first seal ring 104 and a second seal ring 106 are formed in the dielectric layer 102 covering the surface of the substrate 100 and penetrate through the dielectric layer 102 onto the substrate 100, the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 surround the stacked structure 110, and the first seal ring 104 is located between the second seal ring 106 and the stacked structure 110, as shown in fig. 2 and 3. It will be appreciated that the stacked structure 110 is positioned within the first seal ring 104 and the first seal ring 104 is positioned within the second seal ring 106, with the first seal ring 104 having a smaller ring diameter than the second seal ring 106. The inner region of the first sealing ring 104 may be a device structure region, and the outer region of the second sealing ring 106 may be a scribe line region, so as to isolate the device structure in the dielectric layer 102 from the scribe line, thereby preventing cracks generated in the process of cutting the chip by using the scribe line from extending to the device structure and affecting the performance of the device structure.
The first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 may be identical or different in shape, may be circular or square, and may be rectangular or square, for example. The first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring 106 may be parallel to each other, for example, two annular metal frames parallel to each other, and a certain interval is provided between the two annular metal frames, and the size of the interval may be determined according to actual situations.
The first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 may be formed simultaneously or separately. For example, a photoresist layer is formed on the dielectric layer 102, a pattern of the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 is formed in the photoresist layer by processes of exposure, development and the like, and then the dielectric layer 102 is etched by taking the patterned photoresist layer as a mask, so that two deep grooves are formed in the dielectric layer 102, and the interval between the deep grooves is determined according to actual conditions. The deep trench is then filled, thereby forming a first seal ring 104 and a second seal ring 106 in the dielectric layer 102, and the material filling the deep trench may be a metallic material.
However, the applicant finds that after two deep grooves are formed in the dielectric layer 102, the dielectric layer 102 between the two deep grooves 102 is prone to tilt, so that the line widths of the two deep grooves are inconsistent, the filling of the deep grooves is affected, and the effect of the sealing ring is further affected.
Accordingly, applicants formed a via 112 through dielectric layer 102 and exposing substrate 100 in dielectric layer 102 between first seal ring 104 and second seal ring 106, with a fill layer formed in via 112.
In this embodiment, the through hole 112 penetrates through the dielectric layer 102 and extends into the substrate 100, and since the through hole 112 is rooted in the substrate 100, after a filling layer is formed in the through hole 112, the through hole can support the dielectric layer 102 between the first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring 106, so as to stabilize the dielectric layer 102 between the first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring, prevent the dielectric layer 102 between the first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring 106 from tilting, further form the first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring 106 with high quality, improve the effect of the formed sealing rings, and facilitate the alignment precision of the subsequent process.
In this embodiment, the through hole 112 penetrates through the dielectric layer 102 onto the substrate 100, that is, the through hole 112 does not extend into the substrate 100, and the hardness of the filling material in the through hole 112 is greater than that of the dielectric material of the dielectric layer 102. In this way, the via 112 structure is not prone to collapse due to the hardness of the filler material being greater than the hardness of the dielectric material, and can support the dielectric layer between the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106.
In this embodiment, the number of the through holes 112 may be multiple, and the through holes 112 may be arranged in a ring shape along the first sealing ring 104 to surround the stacked structure 110, as shown in fig. 3. Specifically, the through holes 112 may be annularly arranged along the outer side of the first sealing ring 104 or the inner side of the second sealing ring 106, and the plurality of through holes surround the outer side of the first sealing ring 104, so as to support any position of the dielectric layer 102 between the first sealing ring 104 and the second sealing ring 106, thereby improving the supporting effect on the dielectric layer 102, and the distances between the through holes 112 annularly arranged may be the same or different. In a specific embodiment, the annular frame formed after the through holes 112 are arranged in a ring shape may be parallel to the annular frame of the first sealing ring 104 and/or the second sealing ring 106.
In this embodiment, the dielectric layer 102 between the first seal ring 104 and the second seal ring 106 encloses a dielectric ring, the through holes 112 may be arranged in a plurality of rings along the outer side of the first seal ring 104 or the inner side of the second seal ring 106, and the through holes 112 in adjacent rings are arranged in a staggered manner in the width direction of the dielectric ring. Specifically, a ring array may be formed in the dielectric ring of the through holes 112, the ring array may include a plurality of ring structures, and the through holes 112 in adjacent ring structures are arranged in a staggered manner in the width direction of the dielectric ring, as shown in fig. 5 and fig. 6, fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a local structure of a semiconductor device, and fig. 6 is a top view of the local structure of the semiconductor device, and the through holes 112 arranged in a staggered manner can improve a supporting effect on the dielectric layer 102. In a specific application, the through holes 112 of each ring structure may be uniformly distributed at equal intervals, and the intervals of the through holes 112 on different ring structures may be the same, or of course, may be different.
In a specific application, the semiconductor device may be a three-dimensional memory, and the stacked structure in the first seal ring 104 may be formed by alternately stacking sacrificial layers and insulating layers. With the increase of the requirement on the number of memory cells, the number of stacked layers is continuously increased, and when two deep grooves are formed by etching the stacked layers, the dielectric layer between the deep grooves is more prone to incline due to the increase of the depth-to-width ratio, so that the line widths of the two deep grooves are inconsistent. A through hole 112 is formed in the stacking layer between the two deep grooves, a filling layer is formed in the through hole 112, the filling layer tightly connects the substrate and the stacking layer together, the stacking layer can be supported, and the stacking layer between the two deep grooves for forming the sealing ring is prevented from inclining.
As described in detail above, the through hole penetrating through the dielectric layer and exposing the substrate is formed in the dielectric layer between the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring, and the dielectric layer between the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring can be supported after the filling layer is formed in the through hole, so that the dielectric layer between the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring is prevented from being inclined, and thus the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring with high quality are formed, the effect of the formed sealing ring is improved, and the high-quality sealing ring is favorable for improving the alignment precision of the subsequent process.
