图5是阵列晶圆W1的特征部分的剖视图。图6是电路晶圆W2的特征部分的剖视图。阵列晶圆W1具有多个阵列芯片1(参照图1)。图5是一个阵列芯片1附近的放大图。图5所示的阵列晶圆W1的特征部分是与电路晶圆W2贴合前的状态,且与图1所示的阵列芯片1上下颠倒。电路晶圆W2具有多个电路芯片2(参照图1)。图6是电路晶圆W2的一个电路芯片2附近的放大图。
阵列晶圆W1是将积层体20B积层在衬底55上而获得的。积层体20B具有存储单元阵列30、焊垫26、接触插塞27、配线28及绝缘膜29。它们形成在各阶层中。阵列晶圆W1是通过反复执行所述各层的成膜、及利用光刻法等的加工而制作的。成膜方法及加工方法可使用公知的方法。绝缘膜29形成在存储单元阵列30、焊垫26、接触插塞27及配线28之间。在阵列晶圆W1的与衬底55相反一侧的贴合面S1,多个焊垫26A露出。
电路晶圆W2是将积层体20A积层在第1衬底10上而获得的。积层体20A具有焊垫21、接触插塞22、配线23及晶体管24。它们形成在各阶层中。电路晶圆W2是通过反复执行所述各层的成膜、及利用光刻法等的加工而制作的。成膜方法及加工方法可使用公知的方法。绝缘膜25形成在焊垫21、接触插塞22、配线23及晶体管24之间。在电路晶圆W2的与第1衬底10相反一侧的贴合面S2,多个焊垫21A露出。
随后,使阵列晶圆W1的贴合面S1与电路晶圆W2的贴合面S2彼此相对,通过机械压力将阵列晶圆W1与电路晶圆W2贴合。由此,将绝缘膜25A与绝缘膜25B接合。其次,在400℃下对阵列晶圆W1及电路晶圆W2进行退火。由此,将焊垫21A与焊垫26A贴合。
在将阵列晶圆W1与电路晶圆W2贴合后,将衬底55薄膜化。衬底55成为第2衬底50。衬底55例如通过化学机械研磨(CMP)而薄膜化。随后,如图7所示,在第2衬底50上形成开口O21、O31。开口O21与开口O31例如同时形成。在第2衬底50上积层氧化物层。氧化物层的一部分被覆开口O21及开口O31的内表面。之后,去除氧化物层中除了与开口O21、O31重叠的区域以外的部分。在开口O21内形成氧化物层56,并利用氧化物51将开口O31内填充。
随后,如图8所示,在氧化物层56上形成贯通孔,并积层金属层53。氧化物层56的剩余部分成为氧化物层52。随后,在第2衬底50之上依序积层绝缘层61、62。
随后,如图9所示,在绝缘层61、62上形成开口O22、O32。通过形成开口O22,金属层53的一部分露出,成为焊垫P。开口O32到达氧化物51。
图10是阵列晶圆W1与电路晶圆W2贴合而成的贴合体的从Z方向观察的俯视图。贴合体具有多个芯片区域Cp。芯片区域Cp例如包含第1区域A1、第2区域A2、第3区域A3。在邻接的芯片区域Cp之间存在第4区域A4。如图9所示,积层体20中,在第4区域A4内不存在焊垫21、26、接触插塞22、27、配线23、28等构造物,第4区域A4包含绝缘膜25、29。第4区域A4是将贴合体切割成多个芯片时的切割线。
随后,沿着切割线(第4区域A4)将贴合体切割,获得多个芯片。切割是从贴合体的第2衬底50侧开始进行的。通过以上步骤,制作本实施方式的半导体存储器100。此处所示出的制造步骤为一例,也可在各步骤之间插入其它步骤。
在切割贴合体时,存在贴合体中意外地产生裂缝的情况。另外,除切割过程中以外,也存在切割时贴合体中产生的形变在退火等后续步骤中导致产生裂缝的情况。如果裂缝到达半导体存储器100的存储区域、控制区域,则该芯片不良。裂缝容易沿着不同种类的材料界面扩展。例如,裂缝沿着绝缘膜25中的氧化硅膜与碳氮化硅膜的界面扩展。
由于第1实施方式的半导体存储器100在第2衬底50上形成有开口O31,所以能够抑制裂缝到达半导体存储器100的存储区域、控制区域。裂缝容易沿着不同种类的材料界面扩展,且容易沿着开口O31及间隔壁40扩展。切割时沿着第4区域A4中的氧化硅膜与碳氮化硅膜的界面在XY面内产生的裂缝通过开口O31及间隔壁40而转向Z方向。通过利用开口O31及间隔壁40使裂缝在Z方向上前进,能够抑制裂缝到达半导体存储器100的存储区域、控制区域。
(第1变化例)
对第1实施方式的半导体存储器100的第1变化例进行说明。图11是将第1变化例的半导体存储器的开口O31附近放大后的剖视图。第1变化例的半导体存储器中除以下说明以外的构成与第1实施方式的半导体存储器100相同。
第2衬底50具有开口O31。开口O31的内表面由氧化物层57被覆。在氧化物层57的内侧,存在由氧化物层57及绝缘层61所围成的空隙Sp。如图11所示,绝缘层61、62也可不具有多个开口O22、O32。绝缘层61、62也可与第1实施方式同样地具有多个开口O22、O32。
当在开口O21内积层氧化物层56时,能同时积层氧化物层57。当开口O31的宽度足够大于要成膜的氧化物层57的厚度时,通过成膜氧化物层57来形成空隙Sp。当开口O31内填充着氧化物时,通过去除所填充的氧化物的一部分,来获得氧化物层57及空隙Sp。
通过第1变化例的构成,也能够与第1实施方式同样地抑制裂缝扩展到半导体存储器的存储区域、控制区域。
(第2变化例)
对第1实施方式的半导体存储器100的第2变化例进行说明。图12是将第2变化例的半导体存储器的开口O31附近放大后的剖视图。第2变化例的半导体存储器中除以下说明以外的构成与第1实施方式的半导体存储器100相同。
第2衬底50具有开口O31。开口O31的内表面从内侧起依序由氧化物层58、金属层59被覆。氧化物层58被覆在开口O31的侧壁。金属层59被覆在开口O31的底面及侧壁。如图12所示,金属层59的内侧可由绝缘层61、62被覆。从Z方向观察时,开口O31跨及多个间隔壁40。
当在开口O21内形成氧化物层52及金属层53时,可同时制作氧化物层58及金属层59。
通过第2变化例的构成,也能够与第1实施方式同样地抑制裂缝扩展到半导体存储器的存储区域、控制区域。
(第3变化例)
对第1实施方式的半导体存储器100的第3变化例进行说明。图13是第3变化例的半导体存储器的从Z方向观察的俯视图。第3变化例的半导体存储器中除以下说明以外的构成与第1实施方式的半导体存储器100相同。
第1实施方式的开口O31是连续地包围第1区域A1及第3区域A3的四周的贯通槽,与此相对,第3变化例的开口O31A散布在第1区域A1及第3区域A3的四周。从Z方向观察时,多个开口O31A包围第1区域A1及第3区域A3。包围第1区域A1及第3区域A3的开口群可存在多个。
通过第3变化例的构成,也能够与第1实施方式同样地抑制裂缝扩展到半导体存储器的存储区域、控制区域。
(第4变化例)
对第1实施方式的半导体存储器100的第4变化例进行说明。图14是第4变化例的半导体存储器的剖视图。图14所示的半导体存储器是多个芯片集成而成的晶圆,处于切割加工前的状态。图14所示的半导体存储器与图9的不同点在于,在第4区域A4形成着开口O41。对于与图9相同的构成,标注相同符号并省略说明。
开口O41位于第4区域A4。开口O41是“第4开口”的一例。开口O41贯穿第2衬底50、绝缘层61、绝缘层62,到达积层体20。开口O41例如沿着第4区域A4延伸。开口O41可与开口O31、O32同时形成。开口O41也可与最靠近第4区域A4侧的开口O31、O32相连。
通过第4变化例的构成,也能够与第1实施方式同样地抑制裂缝扩展到半导体存储器的存储区域、控制区域。另外,由于切割线上不存在第2衬底50,所以能够进一步抑制切割时的裂缝。
对本发明的几个实施方式进行了说明,但这些实施方式是作为示例而提出的,并未意图限定发明的范围。这些实施方式可通过其它各种方式加以实施,可在不脱离发明主旨的范围内进行各种省略、置换、变更。这些实施方式及其变化包含在发明的范围及主旨中,同样包含在权利要求书中记载的发明及其均等的范围内。
