Detailed Description
The following is a preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present application, and these improvements and modifications are also considered as the protection scope of the present application.
Before the technical solutions of the present application are introduced, the technical problems in the related art will be described in detail.
The three-dimensional memory has low power consumption, light weight and belongs to a nonvolatile memory product with excellent performance, and the three-dimensional memory is more and more widely applied to electronic products. But at the same time, the expectation and the demand of users for three-dimensional memories are also higher and higher. As the number of layers of the three-dimensional memory is gradually increased, the manufacturing method of the three-dimensional memory is also greatly changed. For example, at present, a three-dimensional memory is generally manufactured by depositing an array memory layer on a first substrate, then depositing a peripheral circuit layer on a second substrate, and then bonding the surface of the array memory layer and the surface of the peripheral circuit layer together, rather than sequentially depositing each layer structure on one substrate. Finally, at least part of the first substrate is removed. The currently employed removal processes generally involve grinding to achieve rapid removal; wet etching to achieve the purpose of fine removal, and chemical mechanical polishing to achieve the purpose of planarization. However, the above-mentioned removal process has many steps and the cost of the grinding process is high, so that the whole removal process is complicated and the cost is high.
In view of the above, in order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional memory. Referring to fig. 1 to 4 together, fig. 1 is a process flow diagram of a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional memory according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 2-4 are schematic diagrams corresponding to S100, S200, and S300 in fig. 1, respectively. The present embodiment provides a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional memory 1, including S100, S200, and S300. The details of S100, S200, and S300 are as follows.
Referring to fig. 2 and S100, an initial three-dimensional memory 2 is provided, where the initial three-dimensional memory 2 includes a first substrate 10, an array memory layer 30, a peripheral circuit layer 40, and a second substrate 20, which are stacked, and the array memory layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 are located between the first substrate 10 and the second substrate 20.
The present embodiment may first provide an initial three-dimensional memory 2. Here, the initial three-dimensional memory 2 refers to a partial structure of the three-dimensional memory 1. After the preparation method provided by the embodiment, other subsequent preparation processes can be provided, and the embodiment only provides preparation process steps related to the application. Specifically, the initial three-dimensional memory 2 includes a first substrate 10, a second substrate 20, an array storage layer 30, and a peripheral circuit layer 40. Wherein the array memory layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 are initially separately disposed on the first substrate 10 and the second substrate 20. For example, the array memory layer 30 is disposed on one side of the first substrate 10, and the peripheral circuit layer 40 is disposed on one side of the second substrate 20, so as to facilitate preparation of the array memory layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40. In addition, the array storage layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 are only a general term, and the array storage layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 further include a plurality of complex layer structures, taking the array storage layer 30 as an example, the array storage layer 30 includes a step structure 31 disposed on the first substrate 10, NAND strings 32 penetrating the step structure 31, an array common source 33, a flat layer 34, a conductive member 35, and the like.
After the array memory layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 are finally prepared, the array memory layer 30 and the peripheral circuit layer 40 may be bonded together in a face-to-face manner, and the specific bonding method is not limited in this embodiment.
Alternatively, the first substrate 10 and the second substrate 20 may include a Silicon substrate, a Germanium substrate, a Silicon On Insulator (SOI) substrate, a Germanium On Insulator (GOI) substrate, or the like.
Referring to fig. 3, S200, an etching stop layer 50 is formed to cover a peripheral side surface of a portion of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 and expose a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30.
As can be seen from the above, since subsequent components are required to be further prepared on the array storage layer 30, at least a portion of the first substrate 10 on the array storage layer 30 needs to be thinned and removed. The related art generally needs to grind before wet method, which is not only long but also high in cost. For this purpose, the present embodiment may form an etching barrier layer 50 covering a partial circumferential side surface of the initial three-dimensional memory 2, and expose a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30.
The etching barrier layer 50 can effectively protect each structure on the peripheral side of the initial three-dimensional memory 2, and prevent other layer structures of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 from being corroded by subsequent etching liquid. In addition, the etching stop layer 50 does not cover the entire peripheral side of the three-dimensional memory 1, and since the first substrate 10 needs to be removed later, the surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 does not need to be covered with the etching stop layer 50. As to how to form the etching stop layer 50 on the peripheral side of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 and expose the surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30, the present application will be described in detail later.
Referring to fig. 4, S300, at least a portion of the first substrate 10 is removed by wet etching.
After the etching stop layer 50 for protecting the initial three-dimensional memory 2 is prepared, the present embodiment may further remove at least a portion of the first substrate 10 by etching, so as to achieve the purpose of the present application. It can be understood that the wet etching method is adopted in the embodiment to replace the grinding and wet etching method in the related art, so that the time is reduced, the cost is reduced, and the damage to the initial three-dimensional memory 2 caused by the acting force during grinding can be removed. In addition, this embodiment mode is illustrated in which a portion of the first substrate 10 is removed by wet etching.
In summary, compared with the prior art in which grinding is performed first, in the preparation method of wet etching, the preparation method provided by the application can reduce the preparation difficulty and reduce the preparation cost.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a process flow diagram included in S300 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the step S300 "of removing at least a portion of the first substrate 10" by wet etching includes the step S310. The details of S310 are as follows.
S310, removing at least part of the first substrate 10 by a wet etching method; wherein the etching liquid comprises hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen peroxide and water.
In this embodiment, the etching solution may include hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen peroxide, and water. The first substrate 10 can be effectively removed using hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen peroxide, and water, and the silicon substrate can be more effectively prevented from reacting with hydrogen fluoride, which is a product of the etching liquid, by using the etching stopper layer 50.
Referring to fig. 6, fig. 6 is a process flow diagram included in S300 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the step S300 "of removing at least a portion of the first substrate 10" by wet etching includes the step S320. The details of S320 are as follows.
S320, removing at least part of the first substrate 10 by a wet etching method; the etching liquid also comprises a catalyst, and the catalyst comprises silver.
The embodiment can also add silver catalyst into the etching liquid, the silver is added to etch the whole body along the (100) crystal orientation of silicon, and the etching speed of the silicon is increased, so that the etching speed is increased, and the removal effect is improved.
Optionally, the material of the etching barrier layer includes polystyrene. In this embodiment, polystyrene can be used as the material of the etching stopper layer. Wherein the characteristic temperature of the polystyrene is as follows: the brittle temperature is about-30 ℃, the glass transition temperature is 80-105 ℃, the melting temperature is 140-180 ℃, and the decomposition temperature is more than 300 ℃. Because the mechanical property of the polystyrene is obviously reduced along with the rise of the temperature and the heat resistance is poor, the continuous use temperature is about 60 ℃, and the maximum temperature is not more than 80 ℃. Polystyrene is resistant to various alkalis, salts and aqueous solutions, is stable to lower alcohols and certain acids (such as sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, boric acid, hydrochloric acid with the mass fraction of 10-30%, acetic acid with the mass fraction of 1-25% and formic acid with the mass fraction of 1-90%), but can be damaged by concentrated nitric acid and other oxidants. Thus, the polystyrene may effectively comprise the initial three-dimensional memory 2.
Referring to fig. 7-8 together, fig. 7 is a process flow diagram included before S300 in an embodiment of the present application. Fig. 8 is a schematic view of fig. 7 when a catalyst layer is formed. In this embodiment, before the step S300 "removing at least a part of the first substrate 10" by wet etching, the method further includes a step S290. S290 is described in detail below.
S290, adding a solution containing silver ions into the etching solution; or forming a catalyst layer 70 covering the surface of the first substrate 10 on the side away from the array storage layer 30, wherein the material of the catalyst layer 70 comprises silver.
The above describes that silver catalyst can be added to the etching solution to improve the reaction efficiency. This embodiment describes two methods of adding the catalyst silver. In one implementation, a solution containing silver ions may be added directly to the etching solution. In a second implementation, a catalyst layer 70 may be formed covering a surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30, i.e. the catalyst layer 70 is formed directly on the surface of the first substrate 10 (as shown in fig. 8).
Referring to fig. 9-11 together, fig. 9 is a process flow diagram included in S200 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 10-11 are schematic diagrams corresponding to S210 and S220 in fig. 9, respectively. In this embodiment, S200 "forming the etching stop layer 50 covering a part of the peripheral side surface of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 and exposing a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30" includes S210 and S220. The details of S210 and S220 are as follows.
Referring to fig. 10, S210, a base stage 60 is provided, the initial three-dimensional memory 2 is disposed on the base stage 60, and a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 abuts against the base stage 60.
Referring to fig. 11, S220, an etching stop layer 50 is formed to cover a peripheral side surface of a portion of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 and expose a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30.
As described above, the present application may form an etch stop layer 50 covering a portion of the peripheral side of the initial three-dimensional memory 2. Thus, two specific implementations are presented in this application. In the first implementation manner of the present application, the base stage 60 may be provided, and then a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 in the initial three-dimensional memory 2 is abutted to the base stage 60, even if a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 is tightly attached to the base stage 60. An etch stop layer 50 may then be formed covering a portion of the peripheral side of the initial three-dimensional memory 2. Because the surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 is closely attached by the base 60, the surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 does not form the etching barrier layer 50, and the surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array storage layer 30 can be exposed. Finally, the glass is turned over by 180 degrees from top to bottom.
Referring to fig. 12, fig. 12 is a flowchart illustrating a process included in S220 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the step S220 "of forming the etching stopper layer 50" to cover a part of the peripheral surface of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 "includes a step S221. The details of S221 are as follows.
S221, providing an etching blocking liquid, and spin-coating the etching blocking liquid onto a surface of the second substrate 20 away from the peripheral circuit layer 40 by using a spin-coating method to form an etching blocking layer 50 covering a partial peripheral surface of the initial three-dimensional memory 2.
In a first implementation, the etch stop layer 50 is formed using a spin coating process. And etching blocking liquid can be utilized, and spin coating is carried out on the etching blocking liquid by adopting a spin coating method until the surface of one side of the second substrate 20, which is far away from the peripheral circuit layer 40, is coated, and in the continuous spin coating process, after the etching blocking liquid is filled in the surface of one side of the second substrate 20, which is far away from the peripheral circuit layer 40, the etching blocking liquid flows downwards from the periphery due to gravity, so that the etching blocking layer 50 covering the side edge is formed. And because the surface of one side of the first substrate 10 departing from the array storage layer 30 is tightly attached to the base 60, the etching blocking liquid flowing to the bottom cannot cover the surface of one side of the first substrate 10 departing from the array storage layer 30, so that the purpose of the application is achieved.
Referring to fig. 13-15 together, fig. 13 is a process flow diagram included in S200 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 14-15 are schematic diagrams corresponding to S230 and S240 in fig. 13, respectively. In this embodiment, S200 "forming the etching stop layer 50 covering a part of the peripheral side surface of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 and exposing a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30" includes S230 and S240. The details of S230 and S240 are as follows.
Referring to fig. 14, S230, an etching stop layer 50 is formed to cover the peripheral side of the initial three-dimensional memory 2.
Referring to fig. 15, in S240, the etch stop layer 50 on the surface of the first substrate 10 away from the array storage layer 30 is removed to expose the surface of the first substrate 10 away from the array storage layer 30.
In a second implementation manner provided by the present application, an etching stop layer 50 covering all peripheral sides of the initial three-dimensional memory 2 may be formed first, and then the etching stop layer 50 on a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30 is removed to expose a side surface of the first substrate 10 facing away from the array memory layer 30. This can reduce the process difficulty of forming the etch stop layer 50.
Referring to fig. 16, fig. 16 is a process flow diagram included after S300 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, after S300 "removing at least a part of the first substrate 10" by wet etching, S330 is further included. However, S330 is rarely detailed as follows.
S330, removing the etching barrier layer 50 by adopting a high-temperature decomposition method; or removing the etching barrier layer by adopting a dry etching method.
After removal of at least part of the first substrate 10, the fabrication of subsequent components can be continued, while the etch stop layer 50 is not yet functional and can therefore be removed. The present embodiment may employ a pyrolysis method at the time of removal; to decompose the etch stop layer 50. Alternatively, dry etching is used to etch away the etch-barrier layer 50.
Referring to fig. 17, fig. 17 is a flowchart of a process included after S300 according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, when removing a portion of the first substrate 10, after removing the etch stop layer 50 "in S300", S340 is further included. However, S340 is very rarely detailed as follows.
And S340, flattening one side surface of the first substrate 10, which faces away from the array storage layer 30.
After the etching barrier layer 50 is removed and before the subsequent structural members are prepared, the surface of the first substrate 10 after the removal of a part of the first substrate 10 may be subjected to a planarization operation, so that the surface of the first substrate 10 on the side away from the array storage layer 30 is more flat, and favorable conditions are provided for the preparation of the subsequent structural members.
Referring to fig. 18-21 together, fig. 18 is a process flow diagram included after S300 in another embodiment of the present application. Fig. 19-21 are schematic diagrams corresponding to S350, S360, and S370 in fig. 18, respectively. In this embodiment, the array memory layer 30 includes a step structure 31 provided on the first substrate 10 side; a flat layer 34 covering the substrate and the step structure 31; a conductive member 35 penetrating the planarization layer 34 and connecting the substrate and the stepped portion; when a portion of the first substrate 10 is removed by wet etching, after "removing the etch stop layer 50", S350, S360, and S370 are further included. The details of S350, S360, and S370 are as follows.
Referring to fig. 19, S350, a through hole 80 is formed through the first substrate 10 to expose the conductive member 35.
