Description
The application is that application number is 03109343.4, and the applying date is on April 4th, 2003, and denomination of invention is divided an application for " substrate board treatment and reaction vessel " patent application.
Technical field
The present invention relates to substrate board treatment and reaction vessel, especially the substrate that uses in the fabrication of semiconductor device (substrate) treatment unit, relevant with the substrate board treatment and the reaction vessel of treatment substrate in reaction chamber, more close with the improvement of the gas introduction part that gas is provided to substrate.
Background technology
Below with reference to Figure 14, be example with the vertical type substrate board treatment, briefly introduce the technology of using that shows when adopting CVD (chemical vapour deposition) method or ALD (monoatomic layer deposition) method treatment substrate.
Figure 14 is the model utility sectional view in the reaction tubes of the reaction chamber in the vertical type substrate board treatment relevant with now using technology.
The structure of reaction tubes 106 inside is: as the substrate (substrate) of process object, insert the boat 108 with the heavy state bearing wafer 107 of multilayer, in addition, the gas introduction part as being used for the wafer 107 in the art breading reaction tubes 106 is provided with gas and chews 101.
A plurality of gas are set on 101 chew hole 103 (shown in Figure 14 5) by chewing at gas, the gas that is used in processing is entered by gas input port 105, chews in 101 along gas and advances, and chews hole 103 from gas and offers each wafer 107.
Offer after the art breading of gas to the desirable rete of each wafer 107 enforcement formation of each wafer 107, discharge outside the reaction tubess 106 by venting port 118.
Yet, chew each gas on 101 to chew the port area in hole 103 whole when identical when being arranged on gas, by each gas chew gas flow that hole 103 offers each wafer 107 and flow velocity exist by near upstream one side of gas input port 105 to away from the problem that reduces gradually of downstream one side.
That is to say, as shown in Figure 14, among the device of a plurality of wafers 107 of unified art breading, from the viewpoint of gas being provided for every wafer, to the eye gas is chewed 101 and uniform gas is provided for every wafer 101, difference has all taken place in gas flow and flow velocity in fact, identical condition is provided for all wafers 107.
For example when chewing hole 103 being arranged on 5 gas that gas chews on 101, by the upstream of chewing 101 input aperture 105 near gas, towards away from the downstream, be set at respectively the 1st gas chew hole, the 2nd gas chew the hole ... the 5th gas is chewed the hole, the gas flow that each gas is chewed hole 103 and provided be set at q1, q2 ... during q5, the situation of q1＞q2＞q3＞q4＞q5 has appearred.
In addition, it is the fastest that the flow velocity of gas has also occurred chewing the gas that hole 103 provides by the 1st gas, and down the 2nd gas chew hole, the 3rd gas chew the hole ... progressively slack-off.
The flow and the flow velocity that consequently offer the gas of each wafer 107 have all occurred inhomogeneous.
So, among the art breading of the wafer about the gas amount of providing extremely, the film that forms on each wafer 107 of carrying will inevitably occur inhomogeneous.
Return Figure 14, the uneven reason of the amount of providing of this gas is provided.
Provide the gas of gaseous phase to chew in 101 being in to wafer 107, the gas flow of input aperture 105 and the 1st gas being chewed 103 in hole is set at q00, and the pressure of gas is set at p0.The gas flow of then the 1st and the 2nd gas being chewed 103 in hole is set at q01, gaseous tension is set at p1.Identical therewith below, the gas flow that n-1 and n gas are chewed 103 in hole is set at q0 (n-1), and gaseous tension is set at p (n-1).
In addition, the gas flow of n gas being chewed hole 103 ejection is set at qn.
At this moment, by be arranged on from gas chew 101 identical a plurality of gas of the port area of swimming over to whole downstream chew the gas flow qn of ejection the hole 103 (n=1,2 ...) chew the hole from the gas of upstream just as shown in Equation 1 and chew the hole to the gas in downstream and reduce gradually.
q1＞q2＞...＞qn-1＞qn (1)
This be because gas chew 101 in by on swim over to downstream flow gas be to have reduced when chewing hole 103 at its gas flow q0 (n-1) to flow to next gas chew the gas flow qn that hole 103 sprays from this gas after and chew the hole by gas, so flow through this gas chew behind the hole 103 gas flow q0n then as shown in Equation 2, gradually reduce along with being from upstream to downstream direction.
q0n＝q0(n-1)-qn (2)
The gas density that this moment, gas was chewed the flowing gas in 101 is from upstream to the downstream, reduces gradually by gas and chews the gas flow part that sprays in the hole.Because density and the gaseous tension of gas are closely related,, are from upstream to the downstream and descend gradually so chew gaseous tension pn that hole 103 corresponding gas chew 101 interior positions also as the formula (3) with gas.
P1＞p2＞...＞pn-1＞pn (3)
Therefore, chew the gas flow qn of hole 103 ejection and unequal from each gas.In addition, be set at S, then chew the gas flow rate V that sprays the hole and can use shown in the formula (4) from gas as if the port area of gas being chewed hole 103.Owing to chew from each gas and to eject the hole
V＝gn/S (4)
Gas flow qn and unequal is so if the port area in nozzle hole is identical, it is also different then to chew the flow velocity of the gas that sprays the hole 103 from each gas.Therefore owing to chew among 101 at above-mentioned used gas, gas flow and the gas flow rate of chewing the gas that ejects in hole 103 from each gas are all different, thereby uniform gas are provided can't for each wafer of carrying.
For the problems referred to above, two kinds of pioneering terms of settlement are arranged.
The 1st kind of terms of settlement is to be from upstream to the downstream progressively to enlarge the port area that gas is chewed hole 103, increases the gas flow that reduce gradually in the downstream with the way of enlarged openings area.Even if yet can make gas flow equate that shown in formula (4), along with the expansion of port area, flow velocity can dissimilate by the enlarged openings area.Therefore respectively chew the gas that sprays the hole 103 and still can't eliminate the inhomogeneous of gas flow rate from gas.
The 2nd kind of terms of settlement is gas to be chewed self manufacture the large vol gas that holds a large amount of gases that can ignore spray volume and chew, the gas flow of chewing the hole 103 ejection from each gas is equated, even if chew in the hole 103 by gas and eject gas, chew the gaseous tension that the gas of hole corresponding position chews in 101 with each gas and also do not change so that realize being from upstream to the downstream.Yet,, the capacity that gas is chewed self is not subjected to gas spray volume effect and unrealistic and being increased to the gaseous tensions that gas chews in 101 because the volumetrical that will be held in the reaction chamber that gas chews limits.
And the problems referred to above are not limited to wafer but are widely used in all substrates.

Yet, in forerunner's property terms of settlement, having introduced, aspect the flow velocity of gas, chew the gas flow rate maximum that sprays the hole 4 from the gas in the 1st hole, diminish gradually in thereafter the 2nd hole, the 3rd hole.
Flow is identical but the air-flow of Q1～Q5 that flow velocity is different at first is transfused to surge chamber 17.Therebetween, the energy exchange that the air communication of Q1～Q5 is crossed each other becomes evenly the difference of flow velocity aspect, thereby the pressure in the surge chamber 17 become basic identical.
Its result, when the flow set of the air-flow of ejection from each buffer chamber hole 3 is R1, R2...R5, even if the port area of each buffer chamber hole 3 is identical, so but because the pressure in the surge chamber 17 is even in R1=R2=...R5, it is identical that its flow velocity also becomes.

This electrode protection pipe 50 forms the electrode 52 that can make slim-lined construction to insert structure in the surge chamber 17 with the isolated state of the atmosphere of surge chamber 17.At this, owing to electrode protection pipe 50 inside are and the identical atmosphere of outside gas (air), might be oxidized so insert the electrode 52 of electrode protection pipe 50 because of the heating of not shown well heater.For this reason, the inner setting of electrode protection pipe 50 is the non-active gas treatment facilities, adopts non-active gas or purifying methods such as filling nitrogen, fully suppresses oxygen concentration wherein.
On the position of inner wall surrounding certain distance from this surge chamber 17 along reaction tubes 6, be to be provided with reactant gases surge chamber 42 from top to bottom equally, be provided with reactant gases input aperture 45 in its underpart.
In addition, from surge chamber 17 towards the direction opposite, along being provided with venting port 18 on the lower position of reaction tube around certain distance with reactant gases surge chamber 42.

In reaction tubes 6, be provided with surge chamber 17 and adjacent with it air supply chamber 43 from top to bottom, in surge chamber 17, have the buffer chamber hole 3 of same port area with uniform distances being provided with from top to bottom with on the not shown wafer position adjacent.And buffer chamber hole 3 has same port area on the chamber wall of the surge chamber 17 with same thickness.
From this surge chamber 17 position around reaction tubes 6 inwall certain distances, be from top to bottom equally, be provided with reactant gases surge chamber 42.And, in reactant gases surge chamber 42, from top to bottom with not shown wafer position adjacent on be provided with reactant gases buffer chamber hole 48 with same interval.And the structure of the port area of reactant gases buffer chamber hole 48 is: being from upstream to the downstream, then is from bottom to top to strengthen gradually among Fig. 5 A, 5B, 5C.
Fig. 5 C is the longitudinal diagram for the reaction tubes 6 that is arranged on the air supply chamber hole 47 on the air supply chamber 43 from top view.
In reaction tubes 6, be provided with air supply chamber 43 from top to bottom with on surge chamber 17 position adjacent.And on the spaced walls of surge chamber 17 and air supply chamber 43, by top to also being provided with air supply chamber hole 47 by time many bottoms with not shown wafer consecutive position.It is in order not allow the surge chamber 17 interior gas precipitation districts that produce that the opening in air supply chamber hole 47 extends to surge chamber reason bottom always.
And that the port area in air supply chamber hole 47 and the gas that the gas shown in Fig. 3 A is chewed are chewed the hole is identical, has adopted the formation that downstream direction strengthens gradually of swimming over to from gas.
The situation that adopts ALD method deposited film on the interior wafer 7 of reaction tubes 6 is described below with reference to Fig. 5 A, 5B, 5C and Fig. 6.
In this film forming example, introduce as handling gas, ammonia (NH alternately is provided
3) spike and dichlorosilane (SiH
2Cl
2) gas, adopt atomic shell to become embrane method to form the method for SiNx film (silicon nitride film).
Filling 100 wafer in reaction tubes 6, and make the reaction tubes 6 inner airtight conditions that keep.Adopt not shown pump,, and make a certain specified temperature that keep in the reaction tubes 6 in 300～600 ℃ of scopes by the temperature of regulating well heater 16 by drain gas in the reaction tubes 6 of vapor pipe 18.
At first ammonia is offered air supply chamber 43 from gas input port 5.
For the ammonia flow that is sprayed onto from here in the surge chamber 17 is equated, therefore port area is designed to strengthen gradually from the downstream of swimming over to of air-flow.
Therefore be sprayed onto the ammonia of surge chamber 17 from air supply chamber hole 47, fast downstream is slow though its flow velocity is the upstream, and its flow then is that all air supply chamber hole 47 is all the same.
In a single day this ammonia that is sprayed onto in the surge chamber 17 is transfused to herein, by exchanging the difference equalization that kinetic energy makes the flow velocity aspect each other, thereby makes surge chamber 17 pressure inside equalizations.
Be transfused to surge chamber 17 at ammonia; under the state that pressure between the 1 counter electrode protective tube equates; if the High frequency power that high frequency electric source 51 is come offers the stick electrode of inserting in two electrode protection pipes 50 that are arranged in the surge chamber 17 52 by RF coupling mechanism 53, will between electrode protection pipe 50, generate plasma 14.
And within surge chamber 17, by the ammonia plasma, generate the spike (crystal seed) of ammonia, and owing to be that generation is isoionic under the uniform situation of pressure surge chamber 17 at this moment, because the distribution to influential isoionic electronic temp of the life of spike and plasma density also becomes evenly, thereby can generate the more uniform spike of distribution.
Because the spike that generates by effects such as plasmas has its life-span, if the hypertelorism between plasma maker and the wafer 7, will be before offering wafer 7 inactivation, thereby cause the remarkable consequence that reduces of the spike quantity that the reaction on the wafer 7 is worked, so isoionic generation is preferably in nearby carrying out of wafer 7.
If adopt this to constitute, owing to nearby generate the ammonia spike at surge chamber 17 these wafers 7, thereby can offer wafer 7 to the spike of a large amount of ammonias that generate expeditiously.
And the interval of two electrode protection pipes 50 preferably is set at suitable distance; 20mm preferably; so that the generation of plasma 14 is limited within the surge chamber 17; in addition; though isoionic generation can be at surge chamber 17 Anywhere; but the gas that preferably makes input buffering chamber 17 is the best by among this plasma with the mid-way that is arranged on buffer chamber hole 3 and air supply chamber hole 47.
In addition, should be adjusted into appropriate intervals to the distance between electrode protection pipe 50 and the buffer chamber hole 3 in advance, leak into outside the surge chamber 17 so that the plasma 14 that generates in the surge chamber 17 is unlikely to diffusion.
Its result is because to offer the whole of wafer 7 by buffer chamber hole 3 be that electrical characteristic are the spike of neutral ammonia, so the damage that can avoid the electric He because of wafer 7 to rise and cause.
As above-mentioned, because buffer chamber hole 3 its port areas that are arranged on the surge chamber 17 are all identical, and owing to the spike that offers the ammonia of wafer 7 can provide with uniform flow rate and even flow, thereby can carry out uniform film forming to each wafer and handle.
In addition, because buffer chamber hole 3 is arranged on the mid-way at interval of multilayer bearing wafer 7, thereby can provide competent processing gas to each wafer 7.
And among the ALD method that alternately provides different types of processing gas to form from level to level film as thin as a wafer, by pressure and the temperature in the suitable setting reaction tubes 6, when one deck being provided by the providing of spike of this ammonia containing the very thin films of N atom, scope limits and will work, and thickness can further not increase.
When the surface of entire wafer 7 all formed the very thin films of nitrogen atom, the RF electric power that is applied on the electrode 52 promptly was cut off, and stopped the supply of ammonia.
Then, limit N
2Reach non-active gas purification reaction tubes 6 inside such as Ar, the limit is discharged these gases by venting port 18.Then moment of fully descending of the concentration of the spike of the ammonia in reaction tubes 6, stop to supply with above-mentioned non-active gas,, dichlorosilane gas is imported reactant gases surge chamber 42 by reactant gases input aperture 45.
Among reactant gases surge chamber 42, be provided with by swimming over to the downstream on the reactant gases input aperture 45 the reactant gases buffer chamber hole 48 that port area enlarges gradually towards the center of reaction tubes 6.So, though the dichlorosilane flow velocity difference flow that offers wafer by reactant gases buffer chamber hole 48 be sprayed onto in the same manner in the reaction tubes 6.
Certainly, if do not use reactant gases surge chamber 42 that dichlorosilane gas is provided, but cover air supply chamber 43 identical with the equipment that provides ammonia to use and adjacent with it surge chamber 17 are set in reaction tubes 6 in addition, flow and flow velocity are all kept evenly then can be better.
Yet among present embodiment,, also might on wafer 7, form well-proportioned film if the use that provides of dichlorosilane gas equates gas flow than the easy more reactant gases surge chamber 42 of the combination of air supply chamber 43 and surge chamber 17.
In case on the surface of wafer 7, form siliceous very thin films, providing of dichlorosilane promptly be provided.Then use N
2Reach non-active gas purification reaction tubes inside such as Ar, and these gases are discharged from venting port 18, in the moment that the dichlorosilane concentration in reaction tubes fully descends, stop to supply with non-active gas.
Adopt above-mentioned a series of art breading, can form the silicon nitride film of about 1 , therefore for example when need under the situation of the silicon nitride film that forms 500 on the wafer 7, approximately needing to repeat 500 above-mentioned technologies.
And rotate with certain speed by the not shown boat that makes bearing wafer 7, even from a side air feed of wafer 7, can realize on entire wafer 7 that also more uniform film forming handles.Among present embodiment, its speed of rotation is if there is 1～10rpm just enough.
Therefore, under the non-rotary situation of boat, the homogeneity of the thickness of wafer 7 is about ± and 5%, and under the situation of rotation boat, its error is less than ± 1%.

(the 6th～the 8th embodiment)
Introduce the 6th～the 8th embodiment of the present invention below with reference to Figure 10,11,12.Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12 are respectively the transverse section of the left-half of the reaction tubes 6 that uses in the processing substrate treatment unit of the 6th, the 7th, the 8th embodiment of the present invention.
Among the 6th, the 7th, the 8th embodiment that Figure 10, Figure 11, Figure 12 illustrate respectively, identical with the 1st embodiment, gas chew 102 from the bottom of reaction tubes 6 the stacking direction along wafer 7 is configured within the surge chamber 17 up to top.Gas is chewed 102 bottom and is communicated with gas input port 5.Chew at gas and vertically to be provided with many gas on 102 and to chew hole (not shown).In addition, identical with the 1st～the 5th embodiment, though not shown, on the lower side of reaction tubes 6, be provided with the venting port that links to each other with not shown off-gas pump.
Among the 6th embodiment shown in Figure 10; portion's chamber-separating wall 172 of surge chamber 17 is shared with the part tube wall of reaction tubes 6; two electrode protection pipes 50 are configured in the wall 174 of this chamber wall 172 to be compared, more on the position of 173 walls near portion's chamber-separating wall 171 of the surge chamber 17 that is provided with buffer chamber hole 3.Also be configured in the wall 174 of chamber wall 172 by two electrodes 52 of two electrode protection pipes 50 protection and compare, (distance between the wall 173 of the chamber wall 171 of electrode protection pipe 50 and surge chamber 17 is preferably 0～5mm on the position near the wall 173 of chamber wall 171 more.Here said 0mm is meant that electrode protection pipe 50 is close to wall configuration).Two electrodes 52 and two electrode protection pipes 50 are crossed over buffer chamber hole 3 configurations, (being that buffer chamber hole 3 is between two electrode protection pipes 50).This structure can make the plasma 14 and the distance of buffer chamber hole 3 become the shortest.
By making the wall 173 of two electrode protection pipes 50, can limit main gas flow path near the chamber wall 171 that constitutes surge chamber 17.By buffer chamber hole 3 being set on by the position between two electrode protection pipes 50, can make reactant gases in addition, thereby the density of spike is increased efficiently by the high zone of plasma 14 density at limited main gas flow path.
Under the situation of Figure 10, the reactant gases path in the surge chamber 17 can be divided into path D, path E, path c, path f substantially.Path D, path E form main gas flow path, reactant gases more than half all will between two the two poles of the earth protective tubes by just passing through from the big zone of plasma 14 density.
In addition, because plasma 14 is very near apart from buffer chamber hole 3, and the retardance of unnecessary air-flow also is controlled in the inferior limit, thereby can be controlled at the inactivation of the spike that generates at path D, path E in the bottom line.In addition, even if entering the last stage inactivation of buffer chamber hole, also can activate once again by plasma 14.
In addition; the path c of those 50 of two electrode protection pipes of not flowing through, the air-flow of path f; because it must be by near the plasma 14 before entering buffer chamber hole 3; thereby the density of its spike also can increase, and path c also the same with path D before input reaction chamber 6 inactivation seldom.
That is to say, adopt present embodiment can realize following every.
1. can activate by enough high-density plasmas.(the active increase in density on activationary time point)
2. can with the spike non-inactivation deliver to processed substrate (wafer 7).
Needn't control in order to eliminate path D and path E to go up the density variation of spike and form spike gas flow path before also is the feature of present embodiment.
At this because as long as electrode protection pipe 50 is adjacent to surge chamber 17; just can cut off path c and path f; and only remaining gas path D and E; thereby highdensity spike effectively is provided for processed substrate; in addition; owing to eliminated the gap that road c, f pass through, do not had error because the reactant gases between device activates density, so better effects if.
Figure 11 illustrates the 7th embodiment; chew the 102 gas rectilinearity that provide (path F) by plasma 14, buffer chamber hole 3 for making gas; thereby with gas chew 102 and buffer chamber hole 3 be configured between two electrode protection pipes 50, identical with Figure 10, all be the formation that can increase spike density.
Figure 12 illustrates the 8th embodiment; one in two electrode protection pipes 50 near constituting surge chamber 17; the wall 173 of the chamber wall 171 of buffer chamber hole 3 is set; and another root electrode protection Guan Ze limits main gas flow path near the wall 174 of the shared portion's chamber-separating wall 172 of reaction tubes 6 and surge chamber 17 with this.On the main position of gas flow path I, be provided with buffer chamber hole 3 by 50 of two electrode protection pipes.
If compare with the embodiment of Figure 10 and Figure 11; the distance that will find plasma 14 and buffer chamber hole 3 becomes big; and produced the air-flow retardance thereupon, but pass through one in the electrode protection pipe wall 173 near the chamber wall 171 that constitutes surge chamber 17, thereby inactivation can be reduced.
As above-mentioned, by making surge chamber 7, electrode protection pipe 50, and the configuration optimizing of buffer chamber hole 3, the density of spike that can augmenting response gas.
The optimizing of the relative position by surge chamber 17, electrode protection pipe 50, buffer chamber hole 3 improves the density of the spike of reactant gases and introduces in the above; but when uniformity of treatment, reliability, the repeatability considered from other angle between each treatment unit, then preferably adopt consistent relative position.
In above-mentioned example, because electrode protection pipe 50, surge chamber 17 and buffer chamber hole 3 are independent separately, and produce assembly error, thereby can be in the discordance between generation device aspect the reactant gases sensitization concentration.
Thereby, then might suppress above-mentioned discordance if adopting chamber wall, buffer chamber hole 3, the electrode protection pipe 50 of reaction tubes 6, formation surge chamber 17 is the reaction tubes of one altogether.If material separately all adopts quartz, then should be out of question by dissolving integral body of formation.
In addition, because in above-mentioned example, used electrode protection pipe 50, thus with regard to the position of electrode protection pipe 50 in addition explanation, but under the situation of not using electrode protection pipe 50, the position of electrode 52 be we can say same as described above.
If adopt the structure shown in above-mentioned the 6th～the 8th embodiment, then identical with the 1st embodiment, can be used as the CVD device and use, and as shown in Figure 6,, then can be used as the ALD device and use if outside surge chamber 17, increase a surge chamber 42 in addition.
