Description

A kind of integrated circuit structure and preparation method thereof with airspace
Technical field
The present invention provides a kind of high-effect (high performance) integrated circuit, and (integratedcircuit, IC) structure refer to a kind of integrated circuit structure with airspace (air gap) and preparation method thereof especially.The present invention is particularly useful for the logic IC of high operational effectiveness of needs and high integration or conformability IC (system combination chip (system-on-chip, SOC)) field for example.The method that the present invention forms the integrated circuit structure with airspace then provides the semiconductor manufacturing industry, and person one can reach the total solution of volume production (mass production) scale.
Background technology
Along with the progress of semiconductor fabrication, the semiconductor subassembly design size that is made on the semiconductor wafer is also dwindled constantly, and has evolved to deep-sub-micrometer from generation to generation.Yet, the result that integrated circuit density constantly improves, but cause time delay (RC delay) problem between each plain conductor day by day remarkable to the influence of the operational effectiveness of integrated circuit, especially working as processing procedure live width (line width) drops to below 0.15 micron, even during the manufacture of semiconductor below 0.13 micron, time delay is more obvious to the influence that the assembly operational effectiveness is caused.
Time delay between the metal interconnect can be expressed with the product mutually of the parasitic capacitance (C) between the resistance value (R) of plain conductor and plain conductor.The metal interconnect time delay phenomenon that reduces semiconductor chip is mainly carried out towards both direction at present: first is to use the lower metal material of resistance value as plain conductor, second is the parasitic capacitance between each plain conductor of reduction, reduces power consumption simultaneously with the transmission speed that increases the metal interconnect.
In the known practice, the method that reduces the parasitic capacitance between each plain conductor mainly is to adopt as FSG, HSQ, FLAREK TMOr SiLK TMDeng low-k (k<3) material.The characteristic of these advanced low-k materials need include low-k, low surface conductance degree (surfaceconductance, surface resistivity>10 basically 15Ω), low stress (compressive orweak tensile>30MPa), excellent mechanical strength and chemistry and thermal stability, low water absorbable and process compatibility (process compatibility).Yet many advanced low-k materials all have serious reliability (reliability) and integrate the problem that the back produces with metal.Therefore, before new advanced low-k materials from generation to generation comes out as yet, overcome the operational effectiveness that time delay causes as process technique how and reduce problem, be worth inquiring into and improved problem just become one.
Because the desired dielectric constant of air approaches 1, therefore use the megohmite insulant of air (air) as the metal interconnect, also be one of solution that reduces parasitic capacitance between plain conductor.Though the technology that many low-k characteristics of utilizing air are applied to integrated circuit comes forth out, major part does not but have volume production and is worth.For example in No. the 4920639th, United States Patent (USP), Lan Y.K.Yee promptly discloses the method that a kind of making has the integrated circuit of airspace, its practice is to utilize photoresistance as the temporary transient dielectric layer between the metal interconnect earlier, after waiting to finish the making of metal interconnect, utilize removal of solvents part even all photoresistances again, and between the metal interconnect, form a large amount of airspaces.This practice can make the metal interconnect almost completely by built on stilts, and can't obtain enough supports, causes integrated circuit to be subjected to mechanical force easily and damages.
In addition, United States Patent (USP) discloses a kind of method that forms in the silica layer of airspace between the metal interconnect No. 6130151, its practice is to form a silica layer and a nitrogen silicon layer earlier on metal level, on the nitrogen silicon layer, define plurality of openings via a little shadow (photo lithography) processing procedure then, carry out an etch process again along aforesaid opening etching silica layer and nitrogen silicon layer or etching silica layer only in regular turn, to form the airspace in silica layer.
United States Patent (USP) then discloses a kind of method of airspace between the metal interconnect that form for No. 5949143, its practice is to form a dual-damascene metal interconnect earlier in dielectric layer, and then deposit an etch stop layer (etch stop layer) on metal interconnect and dielectric layer, but expose the dielectric layer of part, carry out an etch process at last and fully remove the dielectric layer that not etched stop layer covers, to form the airspace between and the etch stop layer online in this metal respectively.Other also all discloses the various method that forms the airspace between the metal interconnect respectively such as United States Patent (USP) case numbers 5324683,6077767,6083821 and 5407860 etc., seldom gives unnecessary details at this.
Yet above-mentioned these known techniques are too complicated except processing procedure, outside being difficult to integrate, also face some reliability issues simultaneously, and for example the metal interconnect can't obtain enough supports.The present invention then can provide a total solution, to solve the bottleneck that known techniques can't break through, can reach a volume production scale.
Summary of the invention
Main purpose of the present invention is at integrated circuit structure that a kind of high operation usefulness is provided and preparation method thereof.
Another object of the present invention is providing a kind of integrated circuit structure that has the airspace and enough support and preparation method thereof, making a large amount of airspaces between the metal interconnect, and then reaches the effect of the time delay that reduces the metal interconnect.
According to purpose of the present invention, a kind of high performance integrated circuit structure that has a large amount of airspaces simultaneously and make the interconnect metallic circuit possess enough supports is at first disclosed.This integrated circuit structure includes a ground floor metal conductive line pattern, is formed on the bottom; One second layer metal wire pattern is formed at this ground floor metal conductive line pattern top; One supporting construction is formed between this ground floor metal conductive line pattern and this second layer metal wire pattern, is used for supporting this second layer metal wire pattern, and wherein this supporting construction includes a dielectric layer through anisotropic etching; And, be formed between this second layer metal wire pattern by the formed a plurality of airspaces of a cap rock.
The present invention discloses a kind of method of making above-mentioned high performance integrated circuit simultaneously.In most preferred embodiment of the present invention, this method at first forms a bottom in a substrate, and forms a ground floor metal conductive line pattern on this bottom.Then on ground floor metal conductive line pattern and bottom, form a dielectric layer, and on this dielectric layer, form a second layer metal wire pattern.Utilize ground floor metal conductive line pattern and second layer metal wire pattern as an etch shield subsequently, this dielectric layer and this bottom of anisotropic etching part, to form plurality of grooves, make remaining dielectric layer constitute the supporting construction of second layer metal wire pattern simultaneously.Carry out a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processing procedure at last, with deposition one cap rock on respectively this groove surfaces and second layer metal wire pattern, and capping this groove respectively, form a plurality of airspaces.
Because the photoresist layer that the present invention utilizes metal layer pattern or is used to define metal layer pattern is as etch shield, come the dielectric layer of metal layer pattern below is carried out a first-class tropism's etching and an anisotropic etching, in between the metal interconnect, forming a plurality of airspaces, and then reach the effect of the time delay that reduces the metal interconnect.In addition, utilize the formed integrated circuit structure of the inventive method to have and make the metal interconnect or get the dielectric layer framework that enough supports, can improve the reliability of integrated circuit.
