Description

Make the method on barrier layer
Technical field
The invention provides a kind of method of making the barrier layer, particularly a kind of method of utilizing trace routine and recast (rework) technology to make the barrier layer of a high finished product rate.
Background technology
In semiconductor technology, regular meeting produces many particulates (particles) because of many unavoidable factors, and the existence of these particulates, gently the electrical performance of the semiconductor element of then influence part tube core (die) then must be scrapped chip by the gross when serious.Wet-type etching or liquid state (1iquid type scrubber) methods of scrubbing of adopting remove particulate more on the general semiconductor technology; yet this mode only can be removed the particulate that adheres on the semiconductor chip surface film; in case particulate forms in film deposition process simultaneously; or be present in last time on the film surface; that is particulate can be coated when layer film; then liquid state is scrubbed mode and also can't effectively be removed particulate, thereby has a strong impact on the semiconductor technology rate of finished products.
In addition, under the situation that the semiconductor technology live width descends day by day and the element integrated level improves constantly, physical vapor deposition (physical vapor deposition, PVD) technology, as evaporation (evaporation) or sputter (sputtering), can't solve the difficulty that semiconductor technology meets with, particularly when depositing, be easy to the less or depth-width ratio (aspect ratio) of live width and cross the problem that general goal forms hole (voids).Therefore cover (step coverage) good film in order to improve ladder, (chemical vapor deposition, CVD) method is made film, and is good to guarantee film forming shape generally all to adopt chemical vapor deposition.
Though thisly utilize chemical vapor deposition to form film can to obtain ladder and cover preferred film, yet it is easy in the CVD technology because vapour phase forming core (gas phase nucleation) phenomenon, or peel off (peeling) because of the reactor wall residual film, perhaps react incomplete particle and drop and cause particulate to produce, and then influence the rate of finished products of depositing operation.Below common barrier deposition technology is example in the act semiconductor technology, and the reason of particulate formation and the influence electrical to the barrier layer thereof are described.
Please refer to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 are the schematic diagram of the method on known formation barrier layer.As shown in Figure 1, semi-conductive substrate 10 at first is provided, comprise at least one grid structure 12 on it, sidewall comprises sidewall 14 around the grid structure 12, and also comprises a drain doping region 16 and one source pole doped region 18 in the Semiconductor substrate 10 of grid structure 12 sides.Then on Semiconductor substrate 10, form a dielectric layer 20, and utilize a photoresist pattern (not shown) to remove the dielectric layer 20 of part drain doping region 16 tops, to form a jack 22.
Subsequently as shown in Figure 2, carry out a CVD technology, to form a barrier layer 24 in jack 22 inwalls.Wherein, barrier layer 24 generally is made up of titanium/titanium nitride, and the metal bit line connector (not shown) that is used for improving follow-up formation is to ohmic contact (ohmic contact) ability of Semiconductor substrate 10 and suppress the situation of metallic atom diffusion.As previously mentioned, in CVD technology, in a single day drop, or cause the barrier layer of desire deposition to produce tube core not of uniform size, all can cause particulate 26 as shown in Figure 2 because of vapour phase forming core phenomenon because of the particulate in the reactor.
Be after finishing metal connecting line technology, just can carry out electrical detection at present mostly, and do not reach the expection electrical standard semiconductor element, after utilizing electron microscope observation, can find often because particulate caused, and these tube cores that do not reach electrical standard also can only be handled in the mode of scrapping because of using, and have a strong impact on rate of finished products.Therefore, how to solve particulate and be the important topic in the present semiconductor technology the influence of semiconductor yield is real.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, main purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of formation method that comprises the barrier layer of trace routine and recast technology, solving the particle issues that known technology can't overcome, and then improves process yield.
The method according to this invention at first provides semi-conductive substrate, and comprises at least one conductive layer on the Semiconductor substrate, then carries out a CVD technology, to form a barrier layer on conductive layer, carries out a trace routine subsequently again.Comprise particulate in the barrier layer if detect, then carry out a recast technology.This recast technology is to carry out an etch process earlier, to remove previous formed barrier layer, then utilize a scrubbing unit (scrubber) to scrub Semiconductor substrate, clean semiconductor substrate surface with cleaning solution then, carry out another CVD technology at last again, on conductive layer, to form another barrier layer.And do not comprise particulate in the barrier layer as if detecting, then omit above-mentioned recast technology.
Because the present invention just carries out a trace routine after forming the barrier layer, and when finding excessive particulate, carry out a recast technology immediately to form the barrier layer again, be different from known technology and take the practice of scrapping, so can significantly improve rate of finished products in finding electrically not good.
