Description

Bridging defect detection method for double-pattern mask optimization result and electronic equipment
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The invention relates to the technical field of integrated circuit manufacturing, in particular to a method for detecting a bridging defect of a double-pattern mask optimization result and electronic equipment.
[ background of the invention ]
With the continuous improvement of circuit integration, the feature size of the lithography pattern is reduced, and the requirements on the lithography resolution and the lithography process are higher and higher. The requirement of logic technology node below 28nm based on the current 193nm immersion lithography machine with 1.35NA needs to depend on double or multiple lithography technology to realize the contraction of the technology node, and the double or multiple lithography technology is developed on the background. The double exposure technology is widely applied to 22nm, 20nm, 16nm and 14nm technology nodes at present. Triple or multiple will also be used for the 10nm technology node. Dual or multiple lithography techniques are applicable to lithography of any wavelength, including EUV. EUV also requires reliance on dual or multiple EUV lithography to meet resolution requirements for technology nodes of 7nm and below.
Double patterning Technology (Double Pattern Technology) has two main implementations: one is exposure-etching-exposure-etching (LELE), two mask plates are used, patterns are transferred to the same hard mask by exposure etching respectively, and finally the patterns of the hard mask are transferred to the substrate by etching; one is self-aligned double exposure (SADP), in which a mask is etched once to expose a core pattern, then a non-lithographic process (deposition of thin film, etching, etc.) is used to multiply the frequency of the lithographic pattern space, and finally, one of the lithography and etching is used to remove the excess pattern. Due to the process requirements of SADP, it is applicable to regular dense line patterns such as memory cells, whereas two-dimensional patterns can only use LELE technology.
After the double pattern mask is optimized, a predicted exposure pattern is obtained through simulation operation, and the predicted exposure pattern is determined to meet the requirements of a process window through verification. Bridging defects, i.e. the distance between adjacent exposed patterns, which is defined as the local minimum of the distance between exposed patterns, we consider the location of greatest risk. The bridging defects between the double patterns can cause overlapping risks of adjacent patterns before splitting, the overlapping risks are reflected on an actual circuit, a circuit short circuit can be caused, irreparable loss is brought, only the bridging defects of the two layers of adjacent patterns after splitting cannot be captured by detecting the defects of the single-layer predicted exposure patterns, and great risks exist, so that the bridging defects of the mask optimization results of the double patterns are very necessary to detect, dead spots can be found in time, the problems are solved by means of further adjusting the mask optimization results or adding auxiliary patterns and the like, the process window requirements are met, and the yield of photoetching manufacturing is greatly improved.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
Referring to fig. 1, a first embodiment of the present invention provides a method for detecting a bridging defect of a double pattern mask optimization result, comprising the following steps:
s1, providing a mask layout, wherein the mask layout comprises at least one first layer mask pattern and at least one second layer mask pattern;
s2, breaking the edges of the at least one first layer mask pattern and the at least one second layer mask pattern to obtain a plurality of first layer line segments with respect to the first layer mask pattern and a plurality of second layer line segments with respect to the second layer mask pattern, placing a detection point on each of the first layer line segments or each of the second layer line segments;
s3, setting a pairing rule about the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment, and forming a pairing type about the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment based on the pairing rule according to the placed detection points, wherein the pairing type comprises edge type pairing and angle type pairing; and
s4, defining the predicted exposure pattern of the first layer line segments as a first exposure pattern, defining the predicted exposure pattern of the second layer line segments as a second exposure pattern, setting a first search range of edge type pairing and a second search range of angle type pairing, searching the first exposure pattern and/or the second exposure pattern according to the first search range and the second search range, and calculating the bridging distance between the first exposure pattern and the second exposure pattern based on the search result.
Referring to fig. 2, in step S1, in some embodiments, the first layer mask pattern and the second layer mask pattern on the mask layout are rectangular in shape. Of course, other shapes are possible, such as trapezoidal, irregular polygonal, regular polygonal, or other shapes with angles of 45 °, 135 °, or 90 °. In fig. 2, reference numeral 10 corresponds to a first layer mask pattern corresponding to a region where the fill line is inclined to the left in the drawing, and reference numeral 20 corresponds to a second layer mask pattern corresponding to a region where the fill line is inclined to the right in the drawing.
With reference to fig. 2, in step S2, the edges of the at least one first layer mask pattern and the at least one second layer mask pattern are broken to obtain a plurality of first layer line segments related to the first layer mask pattern and a plurality of second layer line segments related to the second layer mask pattern, and a detection point is placed on each of the first layer line segments or each of the second layer line segments. In the process of optimizing the mask layout, in order to obtain a better optimization result, the edges of the strip-shaped first layer mask pattern and the strip-shaped second layer mask pattern are generally required to be broken to obtain a plurality of first layer line segments and a plurality of second layer line segments with relatively short line segment lengths. The specific setting of the lengths of the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment can be determined according to actual optimization requirements or set according to the requirements of users. The point O in fig. 3 corresponds to a point at which a line segment is broken, and corresponds to a point in the figure having a square shape, and only the reference numeral indicates the point.
When detecting the bridging defect formed by the first layer mask pattern and the second layer mask pattern, a detection point can be placed on the first layer line segment or a detection point can be placed on the second layer line segment,
referring to fig. 2, all M points in the figure are the detecting points that are placed, corresponding to the black circles in the figure, and only the marked parts are illustrated. In step S2, in some specific embodiments, a detection point is placed at the midpoint of each first layer line segment or a detection point is placed at the midpoint of each second layer line segment. In the present invention, the detection point will be specifically described as being placed at the midpoint of the first layer line segment.
In the above step S3, a pairing rule is set with respect to the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment, and a pairing type including an edge type pairing and an angle type pairing is formed with respect to the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment based on the pairing rule in accordance with the placed detection point. The edge type pairing comprises edge-to-edge pairing, and the corner type pairing comprises edge-to-corner pairing, corner-to-edge pairing and corner-to-corner pairing.
In the actual mask pattern imaging process, the imaging corresponding to the edge area and the imaging corresponding to the angle area have larger difference, so that the two methods for calculating the bridging defect have larger difference.
In some specific embodiments, the pairing rules and correspondences include edge-type pairing rules and corner-type pairing rules, where edge-to-edge pairings are generated based on the edge-type pairing rules, and edge-to-corner pairings, corner-to-corner pairings, and corner-to-corner pairings are generated based on the corner-type pairing rules.
The edge-type pairing rules are as follows:
referring to fig. 3, the edge a where the detecting points M are placed is a first-layer line segment, and the corresponding edge B and the corresponding edge C correspond to a second-layer line segment. The second layer line segment and the first layer line segment are parallel to each other, an overlapping portion exists between the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment, and the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment are adjacent to each other.
In this rule, the second layer line segment and the first layer line segment are parallel to each other, i.e., the cross product of the two is 0. The first layer line segment and the second layer line segment are adjacent to each other, that is, no other line segment exists in the vertical direction of the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment, that is, the vertical distance between the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment is the closest. In FIG. 3, edge A forms an edge-to-edge pair with edge B and edge A forms an edge-to-edge pair with edge C.
In order to better obtain the pairing between the edges, a search distance between the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment is set, the search distance is 150-300nm, and optionally, the search distance may also be: 160nm, 180nm, 200nm, 250nm, 280 nm. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, a search distance of 200nm is selected for the search. The search distance is greater than a bridging defect threshold. That is, if the distance from the first-layer line segment is beyond the search distance, it is determined that the second-layer line segment paired with the first-layer line segment cannot be found, that is, it is determined that the first-layer line segment is not paired edge-to-edge and there is no bridging defect risk.
As a variation, when the first layer line segments are line segments belonging to corners of the mask pattern, they are still paired for edge pairs. Therefore, the detection accuracy can be well improved. Of course, if the length of the first layer line segment at the corresponding corner is too small and less than 10nm, the edge-to-edge pairing and the corner-to-corner pairing are not performed any more.
The angle type pairing rules include angle-diagonal pairing rules, angle-to-side pairing rules, and edge-to-diagonal pairing rules.
The corner-to-corner pairing rules are as follows:
referring to fig. 4, the filling area in the outline of all the first layer mask patterns and the second layer mask patterns is defined to be the right side relative to the direction of the first layer line segment or the second layer line segment, and the hatched area shown in fig. 2 is the filling area. Defining an angle type area where the detection points are placed as an angle to be matched, as shown by ≈ A in fig. 4, defining a first side and a second side according to the trend of two line segments in the angle type area; and defining an angle paired with the angle to be matched as a matched angle, such as < D in the figure. The rules are as follows: the vertex of the corner to be matched is arranged on the left sides of the two sides of the matched corner at the same time, the vertex of the matched diagonal is arranged on the left sides of the two sides of the corner to be matched at the same time, the direction of the first side of the corner to be matched is opposite to that of the first side of the matched diagonal, and the direction of the second side of the corner to be matched is opposite to that of the second side of the matched diagonal; or the vertex of the angle to be matched is simultaneously on the left side of the two sides of the matched angle, the vertex of the matched angle is simultaneously on the left side of the two sides of the angle to be matched, the direction of the second side of the angle to be matched is opposite to that of the first side of the matched angle, the direction of the first side of the angle to be matched is opposite to that of the second side of the matched angle, and the direction is defined to be that the angle difference is greater than 90 degrees and less than or equal to 180 degrees in the rule. As shown in fig. 4, the first side is 01, the second side is 02, and in the diagram, < D is the pairing with < a satisfying the above rule, so < a is the angular diagonal type pairing.
Referring to fig. 4A, 4B and 4C, in order to improve the detection accuracy, no detection point is placed between the inner angles of the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment, and the direction along the first edge is defined, where the left side of the second edge on the first edge is an inner angle, and the right side of the second edge on the first edge is an outer angle.
The corner-to-side pairing rules are as follows:
referring to fig. 5, a detection point is placed on the edge a, the angle matched with the edge a is angle a, and the peak of angle a is on the left side of the edge a; the distance from the starting point of the angle A to the edge A is not equal to the distance from the vertex of the angle A to the edge A, the distance from the end point of the angle A to the edge A is not equal to the distance from the vertex of the angle A to the edge A, the edge A is a first layer line segment in the graph 5, and the angle A is a second layer line segment.
The edge-diagonal pairing rules are as follows:
referring to fig. 6, a detection point is placed on ≥ a, the angle matching ≥ a is edge a, the peak of ≥ a is on the left side of edge a, and when it is an internal angle, the peak of angle is on the left side of edge a; the distance from the starting point of the angle A to the edge A is not equal to the distance from the vertex of the angle A to the edge A, the distance from the terminal point of the angle A to the edge A is not equal to the distance from the vertex to the edge A, the angle A is a first layer line segment in the graph, and the edge A is a second layer line segment. It can be seen that the edge-to-corner pairing rules are the same as the edge-to-corner pairing rules.
Referring to fig. 7, after the matching rule matching, point M1 in the figure corresponds to an edge-to-edge matching type, M2 is a diagonal matching type, and M3 corresponds to an edge-to-diagonal matching type and an edge-to-edge matching type.
Referring to fig. 8, step S4 specifically includes the following steps:
s41, setting a search rule, and searching a first exposure pattern and a second exposure pattern according to the first search range and the second search range based on the search rule;
s42, judging whether the first exposure pattern and/or the second exposure pattern is searched according to the search result, if not, executing the following steps:
s43, assigning the bridging distance to be 0;
if yes, the following steps are executed:
s44, matching the first exposure pattern with the second exposure pattern; and
and S45, setting a bridging distance calculation method, and calculating the bridging distance according to the calculation method.
The search rules are as follows:
referring to fig. 9, when the pairing type is edge-type pairing, the line segment with the detection points is AB, the first point adjacent to the projection point of the detection points on the exposure pattern in the same direction as AB is searched along the vertical direction of the line segment AB, and the point with the closest vertical distance to the line segment AB is the target point, which is point P;
referring to fig. 10, when the pairing type is angle pairing, the angle at which the detection points are placed is ≈ ACB, C is a vertex, the detection points are placed on the line segment AC, a first point adjacent to a projection point of the point C on the exposure pattern in the same direction as the line AB along a bisector of the ≈ ACB is searched, and a point closest to the perpendicular distance from the line AB is a target point, which is a point P.
The search rules are as follows:
in the step S41, the first search range corresponds to the distance perpendicular to the line segment AB, and in the step S42, if the target point P is not found within the first search range, it is determined that the first exposure pattern or the second exposure pattern is lost. The first search range has the following numerical values: 40-60nm, the first search range may also have values of: 45nm, 50nm, 55nm, 57nm, 59nm or 60 nm. In the present invention, 60nm is selected as the first search range for searching.
In step S44, when the target points are respectively searched forward and backward until a point on the pattern cannot be projected perpendicularly to a position of the line segment AB extending by a length, a first exposure pattern or a second exposure pattern matching the line segment AB is obtained. The extended lengths are AC and BD. The first exposure pattern and the second exposure pattern can be well prevented from being incompletely matched by setting a certain extending distance, and the accuracy of bridging defect detection is improved.
In step S41, the second search range corresponds to the distance from the vertex C along the bisector of ≈ ACB, and in step S42, if the target point is not found in the second search range by point C, the target points of point a and point B in the second search range are searched in the same way, and if the target point P is not found by both point A, B and point C, it is considered that the first exposure pattern or the second exposure pattern is lost. The second search range is: 50-90nm, optionally, the second search range may also be: 55nm, 60nm, 65nm, 75nm, 80nm or 85 nm. In the present invention, 60nm is selected as the second search range for searching.
In step S44, the target point P is searched forward and backward respectively until the point on the graph cannot be projected onto the connecting line of AB along the direction of the angular bisector of ≈ ACB, and a first exposure graph or a second exposure graph matching with izeacb is obtained.
In the above step S45, the calculation method is as follows:
if the first exposure pattern and the second exposure pattern are overlapped, assigning the bridging distance to be 0; otherwise, the bridging distance is calculated as follows:
referring to fig. 11, a first exposure pattern and a second exposure pattern are generated corresponding to the first layer line segment and the second layer line segment when the corresponding opposite edges are aligned. Wherein the left side corresponds to a first exposure pattern and the right side corresponds to a second exposure pattern. A plurality of first calculation points (which may also be understood as depicting the first exposure pattern with a plurality of broken first calculation points) are placed on the first exposure pattern, including points a0, a1, a2, a3, and so forth. Second calculation points corresponding to the first calculation points (which may also be understood as depicting the first exposure pattern with a plurality of broken second calculation points) are placed on the second exposure pattern, including points b12, b13, b14, and so on.
Selecting a first calculation point or a second calculation point as a current point, calculating a first distance between the second calculation points corresponding to the current first calculation point, calculating a second distance and a third distance between the first calculation point adjacent to the current first calculation point and the corresponding second calculation point, determining the moving direction of the current point according to the relationship between the second distance, the third distance and the first distance, updating the current point and the current bridging distance, and finding out the minimum bridging distance corresponding to the first layer line segment or the second layer line segment, namely defining the minimum bridging distance as a bridging defect.
Referring to fig. 11, specifically, starting along the direction of the first exposure pattern for the first time, the first calculation point of the current point is a1, the point of the second exposure pattern corresponding to the first calculation point a1 is a second calculation point b13, and the rule of point movement is that if the distance of a2b12 is less than the distance of a0b14, the first calculation point of the first exposure pattern moves forward by one, i.e., a2, and if a1b13 is greater than the current bridging distance, the calculation is skipped, and the current point of the first exposure pattern or the second exposure pattern is updated according to the movement rule; if a1b13 is smaller than the current bridging distance, a0b14 and a2b12 are calculated, if the distances satisfying a1b13 are both smaller than the distances of a0b14 and a2b12, the current bridging distance is updated to a1b13, and the current point of the first exposure pattern or the second exposure pattern is updated according to the movement rule.
Referring to fig. 12, if the point moves in the second exposure pattern direction for the second time, the rule of the point movement is that if the distance a2b12 is less than the distance a0b14, the second calculation point of the second exposure pattern moves backward by one, i.e. b12, the current point is updated according to the same rule of the current search direction and the first movement, the above calculation process is correspondingly performed, and the final value of the bridging distance is the requested value.
Referring to fig. 13, the method for detecting a bridging defect of a dual pattern mask optimization result further includes the following steps:
and S5, setting a bridging threshold range, and outputting and defining the bridging distance within the bridging threshold range as a bridging defect.
