FIG. 1 is a schematic flow chart illustrating a method for forming a semiconductor thin film according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 2-9 are schematic structural views illustrating a process of forming a semiconductor thin film according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, the method of forming the semiconductor thin film includes the steps of:
providing a substrate, and placing the substrate in a deposition chamber;
step two, introducing a first precursor gas into the deposition chamber, and forming an adsorption layer on the surface of the substrate, wherein the duration of introducing the first precursor gas is first time;
step three, the first precursor gas introduced into the deposition chamber in the step two continuously stays in the deposition chamber for a second time;
step four, after staying for a second time, discharging residual first precursor gas;
step five, introducing a second precursor gas into the deposition chamber, wherein the second precursor gas reacts with the adsorption layer to form a single-layer film layer on the surface of the substrate;

and repeating the second step to the sixth step until a film is formed on the surface of the substrate.
The foregoing process is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 2, a first step is performed to provide a substrate 201, and the substrate 201 is placed in a deposition chamber (not shown).
The deposition chamber is a deposition chamber of an atomic layer deposition apparatus, and the substrate 201 is transferred into the deposition chamber before a subsequent process is performed.

In another embodiment, the base 201 includes a semiconductor substrate and one or more dielectric layers on the semiconductor substrate. The dielectric layer material can be silicon oxide, FSG (fluorine-doped silicon dioxide), BSG (boron-doped silicon dioxide), a low-K (K is less than 3) dielectric material or an ultra-low-K (K is less than 2.5) dielectric material.
In another embodiment, the substrate 201 has a raised semiconductor pattern on its surface, the raised semiconductor pattern may be a mask pattern, and a subsequently formed film covers the semiconductor pattern and the surface of the substrate.
Referring to fig. 3, in a second step, a first precursor gas 21 is introduced into the deposition chamber, and an adsorption layer 202 is formed on the surface of the substrate 201, where the duration of introducing the first precursor gas 21 is a first time.
When the first precursor gas 21 is introduced into the deposition chamber, the first precursor gas material is adsorbed on the surface of the substrate 201 to form an adsorption layer 202. In the second step, since the duration of the first time for introducing the first precursor gas 21 is short (generally, several tenths of a second to several seconds), the formed adsorption layer 202 is not completely adsorbed on the surface of the substrate 201 as in the prior art, the adsorption layer material atoms do not cover the upper portion of the substrate 201, and the thickness of the adsorption layer 202 is not uniform.
Referring to fig. 9, when the second step is performed, the flowing time of the first precursor gas 21 is the first time t1, that is, the first precursor gas is continuously flowed into the deposition chamber within the duration of the first time t1 to form an adsorption layer on the substrate surface, and the flowing of the first precursor gas into the deposition chamber is stopped after the first time t 1. In a specific embodiment, the time for introducing the first precursor gas into the deposition chamber is controlled by a control valve, when the control valve is opened, the first precursor gas is introduced into the deposition chamber, and when the control valve is closed, the introduction of the first precursor gas into the deposition chamber is stopped.
With continued reference to fig. 3, the first precursor gas 21 may be a different material depending on the material of the thin film to be formed. In this embodiment, the material for forming the thin film is silicon oxide.
In one embodiment, the first precursor gas is a silicon source gas, the flow rate of the silicon source gas is 0.1-15slm, the first time is 0.1S-50S, which may be 0.1S-5S, 0.1S-10S, the pressure of the deposition chamber is 1000mtorr-2000mtorr, and the temperature is 20 ℃ to 80 ℃.
In a specific embodiment, the silicon source gas is SiH3N(C3H7)2、SiH[N(CH3)2]3、HCDS、SiH2(NHtBu)2SAM-24 or H2Si[N(C2H5)2]2
In other embodiments, the material of the thin film is silicon nitride, gallium nitride or titanium nitride. When the film material is silicon nitride, the first precursor gas is a silicon source gas; when the thin film material is gallium nitride, the first precursor gas is gallium source gas; when the film material is titanium nitride, the first precursor gas is a titanium source gas.
Referring to fig. 4, a third step is performed, in which the first precursor gas introduced into the deposition chamber continues to stay in the deposition chamber for a second time.
After the second step is performed, performing a third step, stopping supplying the first precursor gas into the deposition chamber when the third step is performed, and when the third step is performed, allowing the first precursor gas introduced into the deposition chamber during the second step to continue to stay in the deposition chamber for a second time, increasing the adsorption time, so that the remaining first precursor gas can continue to be adsorbed on the surface of the substrate 201, and thus the first precursor gas material can be adsorbed on the surface of the substrate 201 in a supersaturated manner, so that the interatomic adsorption in the adsorption layer 202 formed on the surface of the substrate 201 is supersaturated, and the closest stack is formed, and then after the remaining first precursor gas is discharged, the adsorption layer 202 formed on the substrate can be adsorbed on the surface of the substrate 201 uniformly and densely, so that the thickness of the adsorption layer 202 is relatively uniform, and the thickness of the monolayer thin film 203 (refer to fig. 6) formed by the reaction between the subsequently introduced second precursor gas and the adsorption layer 202 is relatively uniform, so that the rate of forming each single-layer film on the relatively uniform single-layer film 203 (refer to fig. 6) can be kept consistent, the thickness uniformity of each single-layer film is improved, and the thickness uniformity of the finally formed film 204 (refer to fig. 8) is improved. In the second step, the first time for introducing the first precursor gas 21 is short (generally, several tenths of a second to several seconds), so that the process cost can be reduced (the introduction amount of the first precursor gas is limited in the first time), but the problem of non-uniform film thickness can be solved through the third step (the first precursor gas is not introduced, so that the first precursor gas introduced into the deposition chamber in the second step continues to stay in the deposition chamber for the second time and stays for the second time).
Referring to fig. 9, step three is performed directly after step two, that is, after the step two lasts for the first time t1, step three is performed directly, so that the first precursor gas introduced into the deposition chamber during step two continues to stay in the deposition chamber for the second time t2, and the duration of step three is t 2.
Researches find that the second time cannot be too short, the adsorption is incomplete if the second time is too short, the second time cannot be too long, the adsorption reaches supersaturation after the adsorption reaches a certain time, the adsorption effect is greatly reduced, the uniformity of an adsorption layer cannot be greatly improved even if the time is increased, and the time of the manufacturing process is increased.

Referring to fig. 5, after the step four, staying for the second time t2, the residual first precursor gas is exhausted.
The remaining first precursor gas may be purged by a pump connected to the process chamber for a duration of t3 (see fig. 9).

The introduction of the second precursor gas 22 is controlled by a control valve, when the control valve is opened, the second precursor gas 22 is introduced into the deposition chamber, and when the control valve is closed, the introduction of the second precursor gas 22 into the processing chamber is stopped. The second precursor gas 22 and the first precursor gas are fed in by different control valves.
In this embodiment, the material of the formed thin film is silicon oxide, the second precursor gas is oxygen source gas, and the oxygen source gas is dissociated into oxygen plasma to react with the adsorption layer, so as to form the single-layer film layer 203.
In one embodiment, the flow rate of the oxygen source gas is 0.1-15slm, the pressure of the deposition chamber is 1000-2000 mtorr, the temperature is 20-80 ℃, and the oxygen source gas is O2Or O3The thickness of the formed single-layer film layer 203 is 1nm-0.25 nm.

Referring to fig. 7, a sixth step of exhausting residual second precursor gas and reaction byproducts is performed.

The step two to the step 6 are a cycle of forming the monolayer film layer 203, and then a film meeting the thickness requirement is finally formed by carrying out a plurality of cycles.
Referring to fig. 8, steps two to six are repeated until a thin film 204 is formed on the substrate surface.
