The material of the substrate 100 is not limited in the present application, and the substrate 100 may be a P-doped semiconductor substrate or an N-doped semiconductor substrate, and in this embodiment, the substrate 100 is, for example, a P-doped semiconductor substrate.
Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment of the present application, a pad oxide layer 110 is formed on a substrate 100, wherein the pad oxide layer 110 is made of a dense silicon oxide, and the pad oxide layer 110 is formed on the substrate 100 by a thermal oxidation method, an in situ vapor growth method, or a chemical vapor deposition method, for example. In this embodiment, the substrate 100 is placed in a furnace tube at a temperature of, for example, 900-1150 ℃, oxygen is introduced, and the substrate 100 reacts with oxygen at a high temperature to produce a dense pad oxide layer 110. The thickness of the pad oxide layer 110 is, for example, 10nm to 50nm, specifically, 25nm, 35nm, 40nm, 45nm, 50nm, or the like.
Referring to fig. 2, in an embodiment of the present application, a pad nitride layer 120 is formed on the pad oxide layer 110, and the pad nitride layer 120 is, for example, silicon nitride or a mixture of silicon nitride and silicon oxide. Wherein the pad oxide layer 110 serves as a buffer layer to improve the stress between the substrate 100 and the pad nitride layer 120. In the present application, the pad nitride layer 120 may be formed on the pad oxide layer 110 by, for example, low pressure chemical vapor deposition (Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition, LPCVD). Specifically, for example, the substrate 100 with the pad oxide layer 110 is placed in a furnace filled with dichlorosilane and ammonia gas, and the pad nitride layer 120 is deposited by reacting at a pressure of, for example, 2t to 10t and a temperature of, for example, 700 ℃ to 800 ℃. The thickness of the pad nitride layer 120 is, for example, 50nm to 120nm, specifically, 60nm, 75nm, 80nm, 100nm, 110nm, 120nm, or the like. The pad nitride layer 120 may protect the substrate 100 from planarization processes such as chemical mechanical polishing (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) involved in the fabrication of shallow trench isolation structures. And the pad nitride layer 120 can be used as a mask in the shallow trench formation process to protect the substrate 100 at other positions from damage during etching of the substrate 100.
Referring to fig. 1 to 2, in an embodiment of the present application, a photoresist layer 130, such as a positive photoresist, may be formed on the pad nitride layer 120 by, for example, spin coating. The photoresist layer 130 is exposed, and the exposure amounts of the different areas are different, and the exposure amount of the photoresist corresponding to the shallow trenches between the LDMOS devices is larger than that of the photoresist corresponding to the shallow trenches in the LDMOS devices. In this embodiment, the exposure of different areas is controlled, for example, by the mask 20, wherein the mask 20 includes a substrate 201, a barrier layer 202, and a light shielding layer 203. And the barrier layer 202 is arranged on the substrate 201, the light shielding layer 203 is arranged on the barrier layer 202, and the proportion of light transmittance in different areas is controlled by different light transmittance of the barrier layer 202 and the light shielding layer 203.

In other embodiments, the barrier layer 202 and the light shielding layer 203 are made of different light-transmitting materials, so that the light transmittance of the barrier layer 202 is ensured to be greater than that of the light shielding layer 203, and the light transmittance of the barrier layer 202 is 2 times to 5 times that of the light shielding layer 203. Wherein, the mask 20 on the shallow trench between the LDMOS devices only has the substrate 201, and neither the barrier layer 202 nor the light shielding layer 203 is provided for positioning the shallow trench isolation structure between the LDMOS devices. A reticle 20, located over a shallow trench in the LDMOS device, presents a substrate 201 and a barrier layer 202 for locating the position of the isolation column in the LDMOS device. A substrate 201, a barrier layer 202, and a light shielding layer 203 are provided in the remaining regions for protecting other regions on the substrate.
Referring to fig. 2 to 3, in an embodiment of the application, the thickness of the barrier layer 202 is, for example, two-thirds to one-fifth of the thickness of the light shielding layer 203, and the exposure of the photoresist layer 130 in different areas is controlled by controlling the light transmittance and the multiple of the thickness of the barrier layer 202 and the light shielding layer 203. In this embodiment, after exposure through the mask 20, the photoresist layer 130 is developed, and a first opening 131 and a second opening 132 are formed in the photoresist layer 130, with the second opening 132 being located between adjacent first openings 131. The first opening 131 penetrates the photoresist layer 130 and is exposed to the pad nitride layer 120, and the second opening 132 is disposed in the photoresist layer 130 and does not penetrate the photoresist layer 130. The first opening 131 is used to locate the position of the shallow trench isolation structure between the LDMOS devices and the second opening 132 is used to locate the position of the isolation column within the LDMOS devices.
Referring to fig. 3 to 4, in an embodiment of the present application, a substrate with a photoresist layer 130 having a first opening 131 and a second opening 132 is placed in an etching chamber, and etching is performed by using the photoresist layer 130 as a mask, so as to remove the pad nitride layer 120, the pad oxide layer 110 and a portion of the substrate 100 exposed by the first opening 131, thereby forming a first trench 133 for positioning the shallow trench isolation structure between the LDMOS devices. In the present embodiment, for example, the first trench 133 is selectively formed by dry etching, and the etching gas includes, for example, chlorine (Cl) 2 ) Trifluoromethane (CHF) 3 ) Difluoromethane (CH) 2 F 2 ) Nitrogen trifluoride (NF) 3 ) Sulfur hexafluoride (SF) 6 ) Or hydrogen bromide (HBr), or a mixture of them with oxygen (O) 2 ) And (5) combining.
Referring to fig. 4 to 5, in an embodiment of the present application, after the first etching is completed, the gas introduced into the etching chamber is replaced, and the photoresist at the bottom of the second opening 132 on the photoresist layer 130 is processed and exposed to the pad nitride layer 120. In this embodiment, the photoresist at the bottom of the second opening 132 is removed, for example, by an ashing process, for example, after the first etching is completed, the gas introduced into the chamber is replaced with oxygen, and the photoresist layer 130 is ashed until the second opening 132 is exposed to the pad nitride layer 120. The photoresist layer 130 is left over the remaining area to be thick to meet etching requirements.
Referring to fig. 5 to fig. 6, in an embodiment of the present application, the ashed photoresist layer 130 is used as a mask, etching gas is continuously introduced into the chamber to etch, remove a portion of the substrate 100 at the bottom of the first trench 133, form a shallow trench 141, and remove the pad nitride layer 120, the pad oxide layer 110 and a portion of the substrate 100 exposed by the second opening 132, so as to form an isolation shallow trench 142. In this embodiment, for example, a dry etching is selectively used to form the shallow trench, and the etching gas includes, for example, one or more of chlorine, trifluoromethane, difluoromethane, nitrogen trifluoride, sulfur hexafluoride, and hydrogen bromide, or a combination of these and oxygen, and after etching, the photoresist layer 130 remaining on the substrate 100 is removed. The shallow trench 141 is disposed between the LDMOS devices, the isolation shallow trench 142 is disposed in the LDMOS devices, and the depth of the shallow trench 141 is, for example, 1.2 times to 2 times the depth of the isolation shallow trench 142, and the specific depth difference can be controlled by the depth of the first trench 133, the thickness of the pad nitride layer 120, and the thickness of the pad oxide layer 110 formed by the first etching, that is, the depth difference is equal to the sum of the product of the depth of the first trench 133, the thickness of the pad nitride layer 120, and the etching selectivity ratio of the substrate 100 and the pad nitride layer 120, and the product of the etching selectivity ratio of the pad oxide layer 110, and the substrate 100 and the pad oxide layer 110, that is, the depth difference between the shallow trench 141 and the isolation shallow trench 142 is obtained by the following formula:
H=d+T 1 ×S 1 +T 2 ×S 2
where H is the depth difference between the shallow trench 141 and the isolation shallow trench 142, d is the depth of the first trench 133 in the substrate, T 1 To pad the thickness of the nitride layer 120, S 1 T for the etch selectivity of substrate 100 and pad nitride layer 120 2 To the thickness of the pad oxide layer 110, S 2 The controllability of the depth difference of the shallow trench 141 and the isolation shallow trench 142 is high for the etching selectivity ratio of the substrate 100 and the pad oxide layer 110. When shallow trenches with different depths are formed, only one photoresist layer is arranged, and etching is completed in the same cavity, so that the shallow trenches with different depths are formed, the performance requirements of semiconductor devices can be met, the controllability is high, the process can be simplified, and the production cost of enterprises can be reduced.
Referring to fig. 6 to 7, in an embodiment of the present application, an insulating medium 150 is deposited in the shallow trenches 141 and the isolation shallow trenches 142, and the insulating medium 150 is deposited until the surface of the pad nitride layer 120 is covered. Optionally, the substrate 100 may be annealed in an oxygen atmosphere prior to depositing the insulating medium 150 to form a liner oxide layer (not shown) within the shallow trenches 141 and the isolation shallow trenches 142 to reduce leakage. The present application is not limited to the deposition of the insulating medium 150, and the corresponding insulating medium 150 may be formed by, for example, high density plasma chemical vapor deposition (High Density Plasma CVD, HDP-CVD) or high aspect ratio chemical vapor deposition (High Aspect Ratio Process CVD, HARP-CVD). After the deposition of the insulating medium 150, a high temperature (e.g., 800-1200 ℃) tempering process may be performed to increase the density and stress of the insulating medium 150. The insulating medium 150 is, for example, silicon oxide with high adaptability to the grinding tool, and in other embodiments, the insulating medium 150 may be an insulating material such as fluorosilicone glass.
Referring to fig. 6 to 8, in an embodiment of the present application, after forming the insulating medium 150, the insulating medium 150 is subjected to a planarization process, for example, a chemical mechanical polishing (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) process is used to planarize the insulating medium 150 and a portion of the pad nitride layer 120, so that the heights of the insulating medium 150 and the pad nitride layer 120 are uniform. The pad nitride layer 120 after polishing is etched and removed, and the application is not limited to the removal method of the pad nitride layer 120, for example, dry etching, wet etching, or the like. In this embodiment, for example, an acid solution is used for etching, specifically, phosphoric acid with a volume fraction of, for example, 85% -88%, and the pad nitride layer 120 is etched at, for example, 150 ℃ -165 ℃. After removing the pad nitride layer 120, a portion of the pad oxide layer 110 and the insulating medium 150 are removed, ensuring that the remaining pad oxide layer 110 and insulating medium 150 are flush, to form the gate oxide layer 111, the shallow trench isolation structure 151, and the isolation pillars 152. The remaining pad oxide layer 110 is defined as a gate oxide layer 111, and the thickness of the gate oxide layer 111 is, for example, 2nm to 10nm. The shallow trench isolation structure 151 is formed in the shallow trench 141, the isolation pillar 152 is formed in the isolation shallow trench 142, and the depth difference between the shallow trench isolation structure 151 and the isolation pillar 152 is equal to the depth difference between the shallow trench 141 and the isolation shallow trench 142, i.e., the depth of the shallow trench isolation structure 151 is 1.2 times to 2 times the depth of the isolation pillar 152. The depth difference between the shallow trench isolation structure 151 and the isolation column 152 and the thickness of the gate oxide layer 111 are controlled by a one-time photoresist process, and the manufacturing process is simplified.
Referring to fig. 8 to 9, in an embodiment of the present application, a first patterned photoresist layer 160 is formed on the substrate 100, and the first patterned photoresist layer 160 exposes the gate oxide layer 111 between the shallow trench isolation structure 151 and the isolation pillar 152 on one side, exposes the isolation pillar 152, and exposes a portion of the gate oxide layer 111 near the other side of the isolation pillar 152. The drift region 170 is formed by implanting first ions into the substrate using the first patterned photoresist layer 160 as a mask. The first ions are N-type ions such As phosphorus (P) or arsenic (As), that is, the drift region 170 is an N-type doped region. And the drift region 170 contacts the shallow trench isolation structure 151 at one side and wraps the isolation pillar 152. After forming the drift region 170, the first patterned photoresist layer 160 is removed, for example, by a wet etch or an oxidation process.
Referring to fig. 9 to 10, in an embodiment of the application, after forming the drift region 170, a second patterned photoresist layer 180 is formed on the substrate 100, and the second patterned photoresist layer 180 exposes a portion of the gate oxide layer 111 between the shallow trench isolation structure 151 and the drift region 170 on the other side, i.e. the second patterned photoresist layer 180 covers a portion of the gate oxide layer 111 on one side of the drift region 170. The well region 190 is formed by implanting second ions into the substrate using the second patterned photoresist layer 180 as a mask. The second ion is a P-type impurity such as boron (B) or gallium (Ga), that is, the well region 190 is a P-type well region, and the well region 190 and the drift region 170 have a predetermined distance.
