In this embodiment, the metal conductive layer includes a first metal conductive layer 1141 and a second metal conductive layer 1131, and the metal layer includes a first metal conductive layer 1141 and a second metal conductive layer 1131. The material of the second metal conductive layer 1131 includes, but is not limited to, TiN or WN, and the material of the first metal conductive layer 1141 includes, but is not limited to, W.
Since the active regions in the substrate 100 are usually staggered at an angle, the cross-sectional structures of the bit line structures 200 in different columns at the same cross-section are different, please refer to fig. 2 b; FIG. 2a is a cross-sectional view along the cut line AA' in FIG. 2b, and the bottom of the bit line structure 200 in FIG. 2a only shows the dielectric layer 1121 between the adjacent bit line contacts 1111. The bit line contact 1111 sidewall has a gap with the substrate 100
Referring to fig. 3, the dielectric layer 1121 and the second metal conductive layer 1131 are laterally etched.
In this embodiment, the dielectric layer 1121 is made of silicon nitride, and the second metal conductive layer 1131 is made of TiN, and in this embodiment, the widths of the dielectric layer 1121 and the second metal conductive layer 1131 may be reduced by a lateral etching process. Specifically, the lateral etching process may be implemented by controlling an etching selection ratio, for example, a wet etching process is adopted, for example, a hot phosphoric acid solution is adopted to laterally etch the dielectric layer 1121, and a mixed solution of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide is used to laterally etch the second metal conductive layer 1131. The widths of the etched dielectric layer 1121a and the second metal conductive layer 1131a are consistent with the width of a second semiconductor structure to be formed later.
Referring to fig. 4, a passivation layer 400 is formed on the surface of the first semiconductor structure 200 to cover at least a portion of the sidewall of the first semiconductor structure 200.
It should be noted that the passivation treatment referred to in the embodiments of the present invention means that the structure itself reacts with the reactive agent to form a passivation film attached to the surface of the structure. Such as oxidation, nitridation or other reactive processes. In the following description, an oxide layer is formed by a passivation process, but in other specific embodiments, a nitride layer may be formed by a passivation process.
In a specific embodiment, the passivation process is performed by a thermal oxidation process, which specifically includes: the first sacrificial layer 1151, the first metal conductive layer 1141 and the bit line contact 1111 are thermally oxidized, so that a surface portion of the thickness of the material layer is oxidized and consumed to form an oxide layer. The widths of the first sacrificial layer 1151a, the first metal conductive layer 1141a and the bit line contact 1111a, which have the oxidized surface, are reduced. In this specific embodiment, the first sacrificial layer 1151a is made of polysilicon, and the oxide layer 401 on the surface of the first sacrificial layer 1151a is made of silicon oxide; the first metal conductive layer 1141a is made of W, and the oxide layer 402 is made of tungsten oxide; the bit line contact 1111a is made of polysilicon, and the oxide layer 403 is made of silicon oxide. An oxide layer 404 is also formed on the surface of the substrate 100, and the material of the oxide layer 404 is silicon oxide.
Since the first sacrificial layer 1151 and the bit line contact 1111 have the same oxidation rate under the same oxidation condition in this embodiment, the oxide layer 403 and the oxide layer 401 have the same thickness. The oxidation rate of the first metal conductive layer 1141 is close to or the same as the oxidation rate of the first sacrificial layer 1151 and the bit line contact 1111, so that the thicknesses of the oxide layers 401, 402 and 403 are substantially the same, and thus the widths of the oxidized first sacrificial layer 1151a and the oxidized first metal conductive layer 1141a and the bit line contact 1111a are substantially the same. Moreover, the thickness of each oxide layer is the same as the width of the second metal conductive layer 1131a and the dielectric layer 1121a that are laterally etched, so that the widths of the first sacrificial layer 1151a, the first metal conductive layer 1141a, the second metal conductive layer 1131a, the bit line contact 1111a and the dielectric layer 1121a are substantially or completely the same.
In other embodiments, the control of the thickness of the oxide layer on the surface of the bit line contact 1111, the first metal conductive layer 1141 and the first sacrificial layer 1151 can be achieved by a plurality of thermal oxidation and cleaning processes.
In other embodiments, the oxidation degree of the first metal conductive layer 1141, the first sacrificial layer 1151 and the bit line contact 1111 does not need to be the same, because the desired thickness can be obtained by controlling the selection ratio when etching the second metal conductive layer 1131 and the dielectric layer 1121.
In other embodiments, the second metal conductive layer 1131a and the dielectric layer 1121a may be made of a material that is easily thermally oxidized, and the step shown in fig. 3 may be omitted, and the oxidation process is directly performed to oxidize the surface of each material layer of the entire first semiconductor structure 200, so as to form an oxide layer with a substantially uniform thickness.
In other embodiments, the step of fig. 3 may also be omitted directly, since the materials of the second metal conductive layer 1131 and the dielectric layer 1121 are not easily oxidized, an oxide layer cannot be formed on the sidewall, so that the widths of the second metal conductive layer 1131 and the dielectric layer 1121 in the second semiconductor structure formed subsequently are greater than the widths of the other material layers.
Referring to fig. 5, the oxide layer is removed, so that the size of the first bit line structure 200 is reduced, and a second semiconductor structure 500 is formed.
Etching and removing the oxide layers 401-404 by adopting a wet etching process to form the second semiconductor structure 500, wherein the second semiconductor structure 500 comprises a bit line structure 110a and a first sacrificial layer 1151a positioned at the top of the bit line structure 110 a; the bit line structure 110a includes a first metal conductive layer 1141a, a second metal conductive layer 1131a, a bit line contact 1111a and a dielectric layer 1121 a.
The utility model discloses an among the concrete implementation manner, can reduce the critical dimension of the bit line structure of final formation through above-mentioned method, at the in-process that forms first bit line structure 200 through the sculpture, can suitably increase the window of bit line sculpture, avoid because critical dimension undersize leads to the unusual problem of figure sculpture.
Referring to fig. 6, a second sacrificial layer 600 is formed at least covering the sidewalls of the second semiconductor structure 500.
The material of the second sacrificial layer 600 includes, but is not limited to, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, and the like. The second sacrificial layer 600 may be formed using a chemical vapor deposition process or an atomic layer deposition process. In this embodiment, the second sacrificial layer 600 is formed by an atomic layer deposition process, so as to accurately control the thickness of the second sacrificial layer 600. The thickness of the second sacrificial layer 600 determines the width of the air gap that is ultimately formed.
The second sacrificial layer 600 covers the top and sidewalls of the entire second semiconductor structure 500, as well as the surface of the substrate 100.
In another embodiment, the steps shown in fig. 5 and fig. 6 may be omitted, and the oxide layers 401 to 404 formed in the step shown in fig. 4 may be directly used as a second sacrificial layer, where the second sacrificial layer covers at least a portion of the sidewalls of the second semiconductor structure 500.
Referring to fig. 7, an isolation layer 700 is formed covering the second semiconductor structure 500 and the second sacrificial layer 600.
Before forming the isolation layer 700, the method further includes removing a portion of the second sacrificial layer 600 covering the top of the second semiconductor structure 500 and on horizontal surfaces of the substrate 100 by an anisotropic etching process to expose a top surface of the first sacrificial layer 1151 a.
The isolation layer 700 covers the second semiconductor structure 500 and also fills the gap between the sidewall of the bit line contact 1111a at the bottom of the second semiconductor structure 500 and the substrate 100. The material of the isolation layer 700 includes, but is not limited to, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon oxide, etc., and a material with a higher dielectric constant may be selected as the material of the isolation layer 700 to improve the isolation performance between the second semiconductor structure 500 and an external conductor. The isolation layer 700 is made of a material different from that of the second sacrificial layer 600, and has a higher selectivity for the second sacrificial layer 600 when the second sacrificial layer 600 is removed.
The isolation layer 700 may be formed by an atomic layer deposition process so as to control the thickness of the isolation layer 700. In other embodiments, other processes, such as a physical vapor deposition process, a chemical vapor deposition process, a plasma enhanced vapor deposition process, etc., may be used to form the isolation layer 700.
Referring to fig. 8, a filling layer 800 is formed on the surface of the isolation layer 700 to fill the space between the second semiconductor structures 500.
The material of the filling layer 800 may include any suitable insulating material such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and silicon oxynitride. The filling layer 800 fills the gap between the adjacent bit line structures 110 and covers the bit line structures 110. The filling layer 800 may be formed by a spin coating process, and the material of the filling layer 800 may include, but is not limited to, SOD or SOC.
Referring to fig. 9, the first sacrificial layer 1151a is used as a stop layer, and the filling layer 700 is planarized to expose the top of the first sacrificial layer 1151 a.
The planarization process may be a dry etching process or a chemical mechanical polishing process, and the first sacrificial layer 1151a, the second sacrificial layer 600 and the isolation layer 700 are exposed by planarizing the filling layer 700 to the top of the first sacrificial layer 1151 a.
Referring to fig. 10a, the first sacrificial layer 1151a (see fig. 10) is removed to form a void on the second sacrificial layer 700 and the bit line structure 110 a; and filling an isolation dielectric layer 1010 in the gap.
The first sacrificial layer 1151a may be selectively removed by a wet etching process, and the opening is filled with an isolation dielectric layer 1010 by a deposition process. The material of the first sacrificial layer 1151a includes, but is not limited to, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, silicon oxide layer, or the like. And, the isolation dielectric layer 1010 is planarized by dry etching or chemical mechanical polishing, so as to expose the second sacrificial layer 600, the isolation layer 700, and the filling layer 800.
Referring to fig. 10b, in another embodiment, the oxide layer 401, the oxide layer 402, and the oxide layer 404 may also be retained, and each oxide layer is used as a second sacrificial layer; the isolation layer 700 covers the oxide layers and the second metal conductive layer 1131 a.
Referring to fig. 11, the second sacrificial layer 600 is removed, forming an air gap 1101 between the second semiconductor structure 500 and the isolation layer 700.
A wet etching process may be used to etch the second sacrificial layer 600 along the exposed top of the second sacrificial layer 600 until reaching the surface of the substrate 100, so as to form an air gap 1101 between the second semiconductor structure 500 and the isolation layer 700. In this embodiment, the material of the second sacrificial layer 600 is the same as the material of the filling layer 800, and the filling layer 800 is removed together with the removal of the second sacrificial layer 600. In other specific embodiments, the material of the second sacrificial layer 600 and the material of the filling layer 800 are respectively different, and only the second sacrificial layer 600 is removed while the filling layer 800 is remained.
In this embodiment, the second sacrificial layer 600 covers the entire sidewall of the second semiconductor structure 500, and thus the air gap 1101 is located between the entire sidewall of the second semiconductor structure 500 and the isolation layer 700.
In other embodiments, the air gap 1101 may be only located between the isolation dielectric layer 1010 and the isolation layer 700; or the air gap 1101 is located between the isolation dielectric layer 1010, the first metal conductive layer 1141a and the isolation layer 700.
Referring to fig. 12, the air gap 1101 is closed.
Specifically, the film layer 1202 is deposited on the surface of the filling layer, and since the size of the air gap 1101 is small, the material of the film layer 1202 is not filled into the air gap 1101, and the top opening of the air gap 1101 is closed, so as to form the sealed air gap 1101.
The film 1202 may be a material with poor pore-filling capability, such as silicon nitride. In other embodiments, other insulating dielectric materials may be used. The membrane layer 1202 also covers the isolation layer 700 (not shown).
In the method for forming a semiconductor structure according to the above embodiment, after the passivation layer is formed by oxidizing the surface of the initially formed first semiconductor structure, the passivation layer is removed, so that the critical dimension (width) of the bit line structure can be reduced. And, through removing the second sacrificial layer, form the structure of the air gap isolation, thus obviously reduce the parasitic capacitance between bit line structures.
