Further studies have found that the etching principle for the oxide layer 2 is Ion Driven (Ion drive) during dry etching, i.e. the etching process is mainly carried out by means of the etching reaction of the etching gas with the oxide layer 2, and that the etching principle for the nitride layer 1 is Chemical Driven (Chemical drive) and i.e. the etching process is mainly carried out by means of Ion bombardment in the etching gas. The immediate switching of the two different driving modes when etching the nitride layer 1 after the oxide layer 2 has been etched results in the formation of a gap De in the nitride layer 1 as shown in fig. 3.
Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, still referring to fig. 1, at least a portion of the structure above the nitride layer 20 is configured as an oxynitride doped layer, so that the oxynitride doped layer plays a role of buffering during the etching process, thereby avoiding the problem of the gap of the nitride layer 20 caused by the immediate switching of two different driving manners of the dry etching, and improving the electrical performance of the three-dimensional NAND memory prepared based on the stacked structure.

On the basis of the above embodiment, in another embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 4, the nitride layer 20 includes:

alternately depositing nitride layers and oxide layers on the substrate in sequence to form nitride layers and oxide layers alternately stacked on the substrate; the nitride layer comprises at least a portion of a doped oxynitride layer adjacent to an oxide layer on a side of the nitride layer facing away from the substrate.
8. The method of claim 7, wherein the sequentially alternating deposition of nitride and oxide layers on the substrate comprises:
and alternately depositing a nitride layer and an oxide layer on the substrate in sequence, and introducing oxygen-containing gas at least in a back-end process for forming the nitride layer.
9. The method of claim 8, wherein the sequentially alternating deposition of nitride and oxide layers on the substrate comprises:
and alternately depositing nitride layers and oxide layers on the substrate in sequence, and introducing oxygen-containing gas during the deposition of the nitride layers, wherein the introduction amount of the oxygen-containing gas is increased along with the progress of the deposition process of the nitride layers.
10. The method of any one of claims 8 or 9, wherein the oxygen-containing gas comprises: nitric oxide gas or nitrous oxide gas.
