When the base is a base in a memory array structure, the base may include a first substrate and a stack layer on the first substrate. The first substrate may be a semiconductor substrate, for example, a silicon substrate, or may be a substrate including another element semiconductor or a compound semiconductor. The stacked layers include a plurality of gate layers and interlayer insulating layers alternately stacked in a vertical direction, where the vertical direction refers to a direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the first substrate, and the number of stacked layers of the gate layers and the interlayer insulating layers is not limited, for example, 48 layers, 64 layers, 128 layers, and the like. The base may also include a memory channel structure extending longitudinally through the stacked layers and into the first substrate. The memory channel structure may include an isolation layer, a channel layer located on the periphery of the isolation layer, and a memory medium layer located on the periphery of the channel layer, which are not described in detail herein.

Specifically, the metal line may be located on the stacked layer, and the metal line may be electrically connected to a channel layer of the memory channel structure in the stacked layer. For example, the metal line may be a bit line or the like.

Specifically, the metal line may be on the insulating layer, and the metal line may be electrically connected to other metal lines on different layers.
The metal wires on the substrate can be multiple, and the multiple metal wires are located on the same layer and distributed at intervals. The plurality of metal lines may be formed by etching the metal layer. Specifically, the providing the substrate and the plurality of metal lines on the substrate in step 101 includes:
forming a metal layer on the substrate;
forming at least one opening in the metal layer such that the opening separates the metal layer into the plurality of metal lines.
As shown in fig. 2a, a metal layer 2 is formed on a substrate 1, and the metal layer 2 completely covers the upper surface of the substrate 1. The base 1 may include a substrate 11 and an insulating layer 12 on the substrate 11. Specifically, the metal layer 2 is deposited on the substrate 1 using a Deposition process, for example, using a Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) process. It should be noted that, the metal layer 2 formed by the pvd process can reduce the resistance of the metal line formed subsequently by the metal layer 2. Preferably, the metal layer 2 may be metal tungsten or the like.
The metal layer may then be etched using the mask layer. Specifically, a mask layer is formed on the metal layer 2, and the mask layer may include a hard mask layer, an anti-reflection layer, and a photoresist layer sequentially on the metal layer 2. The hard mask layer may be amorphous carbon, and the anti-reflection layer may be silicon oxynitride SiON.
The photoresist layer has a hollow pattern, and the metal layer 2 is etched through the hollow pattern, that is, the metal layer 2 corresponding to the hollow pattern is removed, so as to form at least one opening 20 in the metal layer 2, as shown in fig. 2 b. The remaining metal layer 2 forms a plurality of metal lines 21 spaced apart, i.e. at least one opening 20 separates the metal layer 2 into a plurality of metal lines 21. It should be noted that the opening 20 may only penetrate through the metal layer 2, and the opening 20 may also penetrate through the metal layer 2 and extend into the insulating layer 12, so as to ensure that the plurality of metal lines 21 are completely separated by the opening 20. The metal line 21 may be metal tungsten or the like.
And 102, forming a hollow dielectric layer among the metal wires.
In the embodiment of the invention, the hollow medium layer refers to a medium layer with Air gaps (Air gaps). At least one air gap corresponds to any two adjacent metal lines, namely at least one air gap is formed in the hollow dielectric layer between any two adjacent metal lines. Capacitance effect can be generated between two adjacent metal wires, and an air gap is formed between the two adjacent metal wires, so that the dielectric constant of the capacitor can be reduced, and the working efficiency of the semiconductor device is improved.
Specifically, the forming a hollow dielectric layer between the plurality of metal lines in step 102 includes:
forming a first hollow dielectric layer on one side of the substrate, wherein the first hollow dielectric layer covers at least part of the metal wire, and the first hollow dielectric layer fills the opening;
and grinding the first hollow medium layer to remove the first hollow medium layer on the metal wire, so that the first hollow medium layer remained in the opening forms the hollow medium layer.
As shown in fig. 2c, a first hollow dielectric layer 3 is deposited on one side of the substrate 1 by a deposition process, the first hollow dielectric layer 3 covers at least a portion of the metal line 21, and the first hollow dielectric layer 3 fills the opening 20. Due to the setting of the filling parameters, at least one air gap 30 is formed in the first hollow dielectric layer 3 filled in each opening 20, that is, at least one air gap 30 is formed in each opening 20, so as to ensure that at least one air gap 30 is formed between any two adjacent metal lines 21. The first hollow dielectric layer 3 may be a low-k material, such as silicon nitride (sin), carbon-containing silicon Nitride (NDC), etc., to further reduce the k of the capacitor formed by two adjacent metal lines, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the semiconductor device, such as programming efficiency.
Then, as shown in fig. 2d, the first hollow medium layer 3 is polished by Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP) (the metal wire 21 may be used as a stop layer) to remove the first hollow medium layer 3 on the side of the metal wire 21 away from the substrate 1, and the first hollow medium layer 3 in the opening 20 is remained, i.e. the upper surface of the polished first hollow medium layer 3 is flush with the upper surface of the metal wire 21. The first hollow medium layer 3 remaining in the opening 20 constitutes a hollow medium layer 31, such that the hollow medium layer 31 is located between the plurality of metal lines 21, and at least one air gap 30 is formed in the hollow medium layer 31 between any two adjacent metal lines 21.
When the opening 20 penetrates only the metal layer 2, the hollow dielectric layer 31 is only located between the plurality of metal lines 21. When the opening 20 penetrates through the metal layer 2 and extends into the insulating layer 12, the hollow dielectric layer 31 is located between the metal lines 21 and extends into the insulating layer 12. The material of the hollow dielectric layer 31 may be the same as or different from that of the insulating layer 12, and is not particularly limited herein.
103, forming an interlayer dielectric layer on the metal wire and the hollow dielectric layer, wherein the etching rates of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer are different.
In the embodiment of the invention, the materials of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer can be different, so that the etching rates of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer are different. The materials of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer can be the same, but the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer adopt different processes to form dielectric layers with different qualities, so that the etching rates of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer are different.
When the contact hole is formed in the interlayer dielectric layer subsequently, due to the fact that the etching rates of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer are different, even if the etching of the contact hole is deviated, the hollow dielectric layer can be used as a stop layer, the contact hole is prevented from being etched into the hollow dielectric layer between the metal wires, and further the air gap in the hollow dielectric layer is at least partially prevented from being damaged, so that the capacitance between the metal wires is reduced, and the working efficiency of the semiconductor device, such as programming efficiency, is improved.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2e, an interlayer dielectric layer 4 is deposited on the plurality of metal lines 21 and the hollow dielectric layer 31 by a deposition process, and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 completely covers the upper surfaces of the plurality of metal lines 21 and the hollow dielectric layer 31.
Preferably, the etching rate of the hollow dielectric layer 31 is smaller than that of the interlayer dielectric layer 4. When the materials of the hollow dielectric layer 31 and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 are different, the hollow dielectric layer 31 may be silicon nitride, carbon-containing silicon nitride, or the like, and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 may be silicon dioxide, or the like, so that the etching rate of the hollow dielectric layer 31 is less than that of the interlayer dielectric layer 4. When the materials of the hollow dielectric layer 31 and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 are the same, the hollow dielectric layer 31 may be formed between the plurality of metal lines 21 by using an HDP (high density plasma) process, and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 may be formed on the plurality of metal layers 21 and the hollow dielectric layer 31 by using a TEOS (tetraethylorthosilicate) process, so that the etching rate of the hollow dielectric layer 31 is less than that of the interlayer dielectric layer 4.
Further, the method further includes step 104, where step 104 specifically is:
and forming a contact structure which penetrates through the interlayer dielectric layer and is connected with the metal wire.
As shown in fig. 2f, a contact hole 40 is etched in the interlayer dielectric layer 4, the contact hole 40 penetrating the interlayer dielectric layer 4. The number of the contact holes 40 may be plural, and the plurality of contact holes 40 correspond to the plurality of metal lines 21 one to one. The contact holes 40 may be perfectly aligned with their corresponding metal lines 21, i.e., the bottom of the contact holes 40 is completely located on their corresponding metal lines 21. Due to the error of the etching process, the contact hole 40 may not be aligned completely with its corresponding metal line 21, i.e., the bottom of the contact hole 40 is partially located on its corresponding metal line 21 and partially located on the hollow dielectric layer 31. Due to the fact that the etching rates of the hollow dielectric layer 31 and the interlayer dielectric layer 4 are different, the contact hole 40 cannot be etched into the hollow dielectric layer 31 after penetrating through the interlayer dielectric layer 4, and therefore the air gap 30 in the hollow dielectric layer 31 is at least partially prevented from being damaged.
Then, the contact hole 40 is filled with the contact structure 5, i.e., the contact structure 5 penetrates the interlayer dielectric layer 4. The number of the contact holes 40 may be plural, so that the number of the contact structures 5 may be plural, and the plurality of contact structures 5 correspond to the plurality of metal lines 21 one to one. The contact structures 5 and their corresponding metal lines 21 may be completely aligned, i.e. the bottom of the contact structures 5 is completely located on their corresponding metal lines 21, so that the contact structures 5 and their corresponding metal lines 21 are electrically connected; the contact structures 5 and their corresponding metal lines 21 may not be completely aligned, i.e. the bottom portions of the contact structures 5 are located on their corresponding metal lines 21 and the portions are located on the hollow dielectric layer 31, as long as the contact structures 5 and their corresponding metal lines 21 are electrically connected.
It should be noted that other metal lines may also be formed on the interlayer dielectric layer 4, and the other metal lines are electrically connected to the contact structure 5, so that the metal line 21 may be electrically connected to other metal lines located at different layers through the contact structure 5.
According to the manufacturing method of the semiconductor device, the hollow dielectric layer is formed among the plurality of metal wires which are distributed at intervals, then the interlayer dielectric layer is formed on the metal wires and the hollow dielectric layer, the etching rates of the interlayer dielectric layer and the hollow dielectric layer are different, when the contact holes are etched in the interlayer dielectric layer on the metal wires subsequently, even if the etching deviation of the contact holes occurs, the hollow dielectric layer can be used as a stop layer, the contact holes are prevented from being etched into the hollow dielectric layer among the metal wires, so that the air gaps in the hollow dielectric layer among the metal wires are at least partially prevented from being damaged by the contact holes, the capacitance among the metal wires is reduced, and the working efficiency of the semiconductor device, such as the programming efficiency, is improved.
