Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an alignment error compensation method for a capacitive opening layer in an embodiment, where as shown in fig. 1, the alignment error compensation method for the capacitive opening layer includes:
s100: acquiring a profile picture of a test area of the current batch of devices,
s200: acquiring an alignment error between a capacitance opening layer of the test area and the capacitance layer according to the profile picture;
s300: and back-compensating and exposing the capacitor opening layer of the next batch of devices through the overlay error of the current batch of devices.
In the S100 step, the test area is formed with at least one capacitance opening hole 200 and a plurality of capacitance holes 100 designed to be communicated with the capacitance opening hole 200, and the capacitance opening hole 200 and the plurality of capacitance holes 100 designed to be communicated with the capacitance opening hole 200 are defined as one capacitance hole combination 300. Fig. 2 to 3 are schematic design views of test regions in two examples, and as shown in fig. 2, one capacitor hole combination 300 includes one capacitor opening hole 200 and three capacitor holes 100, and a central position of the capacitor opening hole 200 is designed to be the same distance from a central position of each capacitor hole 100; as shown in fig. 3, one capacitor opening hole combination 300 includes one capacitor opening hole 200 and six capacitor holes 100, and the center position of the capacitor opening hole 200 is the same as the center position of the overall pattern formed by the six capacitor opening holes 200. It should be noted that the alignment error compensation method for the capacitive opening layer in this embodiment is applicable to capacitive opening holes 200 with different shapes and different sizes, and is not limited to the above two examples.
Fig. 4 to 5 are schematic diagrams of profile pictures of the test areas in the two previous examples, in this embodiment, a scanning electron microscope is used to obtain the coordinate positions and the critical dimensions of the capacitor holes 100 and the capacitor opening holes 200 in the subsequent steps, as shown in fig. 4 to 5, there is a certain deviation between the actual positions of the capacitor opening holes 200 and the design positions, when the positions of the capacitor opening holes 200 are deviated, the contact areas of each capacitor hole 100 and the pickling solution are different, and the corresponding pickling speeds are also different, and if the difference between the pickling speeds of different capacitor holes 100 is too large, the pickling quality of the device is further affected.
The number of the capacitor holes 100 determines the data storage capacity of the DRAM chip device, and therefore a large number of the capacitor holes 100 are designed in one DRAM chip. Defining the layer where the capacitor opening holes 200 are located as a capacitor opening layer, defining the layer where the plurality of capacitor holes 100 are located as a capacitor layer, and defining the deviation between the actual position 220 and the design position 210 of the capacitor opening hole 200 in one capacitor hole combination 300 as a single group error. As shown in fig. 6, a dotted circular area is a design position 210 of the capacitor opening hole 200, a dashed circular area is an actual position 220 of the capacitor opening hole 200, and a distance OVL between a center of the actual position 220 and a center of the design position 210 is the single set error. In one embodiment, in step S200, one of the capacitor hole combinations 300 in the test area is selected, and the single group error of the capacitor hole combination 300 is the overlay error of the test area.
In another embodiment, the outline picture of the test area includes at least two capacitor hole combinations 300, as shown in fig. 7, in the step S200, the following steps are included:
s210: acquiring a single set of errors of at least two capacitor hole combinations 300 in the test area;
s220: and calculating the average value of at least two single group errors, and defining the average value as the overlay error of the test area.
If only one capacitor hole combination 300 is selected, when the capacitor hole combination 300 has a defect not existing in other capacitor hole combinations 300 during the manufacturing process, an overlay error evaluation error of the test area may be caused, and the subsequent benefit exposure effect may be affected. This problem of evaluation error can be effectively prevented by selecting at least two of the capacitance hole combinations 300 and calculating a single set of error averages. In an example, the at least two capacitor hole assemblies 300 are respectively disposed at the center position or the corner position of the test area, and the position distribution of the selected capacitor hole assemblies 300 in the test area is a symmetric distribution, as shown in fig. 8, the capacitor hole assemblies 300 filled with oblique lines are the capacitor hole assemblies 300 selected in the test area, and the single group error of each capacitor hole assembly 300 obtained by the test is OVL1, OVL2, and OVL3, respectively, so that the overlay error OVL of the test area is (OVL1+ OVL2+ OVL3)/3, and by the selection manner of the capacitor hole assemblies 300, a more stable and accurate overlay error test result can be obtained.
In an embodiment, after the step of obtaining the overlay error between the capacitance opening layer of the test area and the capacitance layer, the method further includes the following steps: presetting an error threshold; and comparing the overlay error with the error threshold, and judging that the area with the overlay error larger than the error threshold is an unqualified area of the device. The devices in the current batch are divided according to the test result of the overlay error, so that the workload of manufacturing and testing in the subsequent steps can be reduced. If the overlay error of a test area does not meet the requirement of an error threshold and cannot be compensated in the subsequent process, the DRAM chip device meeting the specification requirement cannot be formed in the unqualified area of the device, so that the area can be skipped in the subsequent test step, and the test speed and the test efficiency of the device are improved.
In an embodiment, the wafer is divided into a plurality of test areas, as shown in fig. 9, each small square is one test area, and each test area is adjacently disposed, as shown in fig. 10, in the step S300, the method includes the following steps:
s310: acquiring the overlay error of the devices in the current batch in each test area;
s320: and exposing and compensating the capacitor opening layer of the next batch of devices in the corresponding test area according to the overlay error.
In an embodiment, after the step of obtaining the overlay error of the current batch of devices in each test area, the method further includes a step of drawing an overlay error wafer map of the current batch of devices, so that a technician can visually evaluate the overlay error of the current batch of wafers through the wafer map.
In an embodiment, as shown in fig. 11, in the step S320, the following steps are included:
s321: coating photoresist on the surface of the substrate of the next batch of devices;
s322: adjusting the position of a photomask during exposure of the corresponding test area of the next batch of devices according to the overlay error of the current batch of devices in the test area;
s323: the next batch of devices is exposed, developed and etched to form the capacitance opening layer.
In step S321, a photoresist is coated on the surface of the substrate by a spin coating or doctor blade coating process, and the device is baked at a suitable temperature to remove the solvent in the device, thereby improving the hardness and stability of the photoresist layer. In step S322, when adjusting the position of the mask of the next batch of devices, the adjusting distance is the same as the value of the overlay error of the current batch of devices, and the adjusting direction is opposite to the direction of the overlay error of the current batch of devices. In step S323, the next batch of devices is etched by using a dry etching process, further, the etching gas used in the dry etching process is a mixture of carbon tetrafluoride and chloroform, and the ratio of the carbon tetrafluoride to the chloroform is adjusted according to the material of the etching layer, so as to achieve the optimal etching effect.
In one embodiment, a connection line direction between the positioning groove and the center of the wafer is defined as a Y direction, a direction perpendicular to the Y direction is defined as an X direction, and the overlay error includes an X direction error and a Y direction error. The alignment error is divided into an X-direction error and a Y-direction error, so that the photomask can be more conveniently controlled to move in the process of carrying out compensation exposure.
The calculation method of the X-direction error and the Y-direction error will be described in detail herein with reference to the embodiment shown in fig. 6. The three capacitor holes 100 are respectively defined as a first capacitor hole, a second capacitor hole and a third capacitor hole in a clockwise direction; the direction of the first capacitor hole pointing to the second capacitor hole is defined as a first offset direction, the direction of the second capacitor hole pointing to the third capacitor hole is defined as a second offset direction, and the direction of the first capacitor hole pointing to the third capacitor hole is defined as a third offset direction. In the outline picture, the offset distance of the capacitor opening hole 200 along the first offset direction is defined as a first measurement offset value shift1, the offset distance along the second offset direction is defined as a second measurement offset value shift2, the offset distance along the third offset direction is defined as a third measurement offset value shift3, the included angle between the first offset direction and the X direction is defined as a first included angle θ, and the included angle between the second offset direction and the X direction is defined as a second included angle e along the negative direction of the Y direction.
In actual measurement, the same sample is rotated to three different angles, each angle uses a CD-SEM to obtain a clear and accurate profile picture through a set magnification, and offset values in different directions are measured, namely the shift1, the shift2 and the shift3 are obtained through three times of measurement, so that the measured offset value obtained from the profile picture and a real offset value are in a positive correlation relationship, and the correlation coefficient is k. In addition, during CD-SEM measurement, an electron beam with a set pressure is required to bombard a sample, after each electron beam bombardment, the sample may generate a different degree of electrification, and the electrification has a correlation with the electron beam voltage, the material of the film layer of the product, and the like, so that the offset value obtained by each measurement needs to be corrected correspondingly according to a set proportion, so as to obtain a more accurate real offset value result, and specifically, the real offset value and the measurement offset value satisfy the following relationship:
shift1’=k*k1*shift1;
shift2’=k*k2*shift2;
shift3’=k*k3*shift3;
where shift1 ' represents a first true offset value along a first offset direction, shift2 ' represents a second true offset value along a second offset direction, shift3 ' represents a third true offset value along a third offset direction, and k1, k2, and k3 represent correction ratios for the first, second, and third measured offset values, respectively.
The X-direction error and the Y-direction error satisfy the following equations:
OVLX=shift1’*cosθ+shift2’*cosε;
OVLY=shift2’*sinε-shift1’*sinθ-shift3’;
wherein, OVLX represents the error in the X direction, and OVLY represents the error in the Y direction.
The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is specific and detailed, but not to be understood as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
