Abstract
Description
本明細書において説明されるのは、電子装置の製造のためのプロセスである。より具体的には、本明細書において説明されるのは、堆積プロセス、例えば、限定するものではないが、流動性化学気相堆積におけるケイ素含有膜を形成するための組成物である。本明細書において説明される組成物及び方法を使用して堆積することができる例示的なケイ素含有膜は、限定するものではないが、酸化ケイ素、窒化ケイ素、炭化ケイ素、酸窒化ケイ素、炭素ドープ酸化窒素又は炭素ドープ窒化ケイ素の膜を含む。 Described herein are processes for the manufacture of electronic devices. More specifically, described herein are compositions for forming silicon-containing films in deposition processes such as, but not limited to, fluid chemical vapor deposition. Exemplary silicon-containing films that can be deposited using the compositions and methods described herein include, but are not limited to, silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, silicon oxynitride, carbon-doped It includes a film of nitric oxide or carbon-doped silicon nitride.
微小電子装置の製造において、多くの用途のために、10:1より大きいアスペクト比(AR)を有する狭いトレンチを、ボイドを形成せずに充填する必要がある。1つの用途は、シャロートレンチアイソレーション(STI)である。この用途のために、膜は非常に少ない漏出であるとともに、トレンチを通して高品質(例えば、2より小さい湿式エッチング速度比)である必要がある。構造体の寸法が小さくなり、アスペクト比が大きくなるにつれて、堆積された流動性膜の後硬化方法は困難になる。結果として、充填されたトレンチを通して、組成変化を有する膜をもたらす。 In the fabrication of microelectronic devices, there is a need for void-free filling of narrow trenches with aspect ratios (AR) greater than 10:1 for many applications. One application is shallow trench isolation (STI). For this application, the film should have very low leakage through the trench and be of high quality (eg, wet etch rate ratio less than 2). As the dimensions of structures decrease and aspect ratios increase, post-curing methods for deposited flowable films become more difficult. The result is a film with compositional variations throughout the filled trench.
誘電膜の従来のプラズマ強化化学気相堆積(PECVD)は、「マッシュルーム形状」の膜を狭いトレンチの頂部に形成する。これは、プラズマが深いトレンチに浸透できないことが原因である。そのことは、頂部から狭いトレンチをピンチオフし、トレンチの底部にボイドを形成することをもたらす。 Conventional plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) of dielectric films forms "mushroom-shaped" films on top of narrow trenches. This is due to the inability of the plasma to penetrate deep trenches. That results in pinching off the narrow trench from the top and forming voids at the bottom of the trench.
加えて、ケイ素含有膜、例えばSiCO、SiCON、SiCNは、半導体装置の製造において広く使用される。例えば、これらの炭素含有ギャップ充填膜はパターニング用途のために使用することができる。高い炭素レベルであるため、典型的には、これらの膜は、酸化膜及び窒化膜と比較して、高いエッチング選択性を示す。エッチング選択性は、パターニング用途において使用されるギャップ充填膜のために重要である場合がある。従って、ケイ素含有膜を堆積するための前駆体及び方法への要求がある。 In addition, silicon-containing films such as SiCO, SiCON, SiCN are widely used in the fabrication of semiconductor devices. For example, these carbon-containing gapfill films can be used for patterning applications. Due to the high carbon levels, these films typically exhibit high etch selectivities compared to oxide and nitride films. Etch selectivity can be important for gap-fill films used in patterning applications. Accordingly, there is a need for precursors and methods for depositing silicon-containing films.

FCVD processes are useful for many applications, including the deposition of gapfill films on high aspect ratio structures with small dimensions.

Reactive radicals are created using plasma energy.

以下の実施例は、本発明の特定の実施態様を例示するために提供され、添付の特許請求の範囲を限定するものではない。 The following examples are provided to illustrate certain embodiments of the invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the appended claims.
流動性化学気相堆積(FCVD)膜を、中位の抵抗(8~12Ωcm)の単結晶シリコンウエハ基材及びSiのパターン付きウエハの上に堆積した。特定の実施例において、結果として生じるケイ素含有膜又はコーティングは、前堆積処理、例えば、以下に限定するものではないが、プラズマ処理、熱処理、化学処理、紫外光露光、赤外露光、電子ビーム露光及び/又は膜の1つ又は複数の特性に影響を与える他の処理を受けさせることができる。 Flowable chemical vapor deposition (FCVD) films were deposited on medium resistivity (8-12 Ωcm) single crystal silicon wafer substrates and Si patterned wafers. In certain embodiments, the resulting silicon-containing film or coating is subjected to pre-deposition treatments such as, but not limited to, plasma treatment, thermal treatment, chemical treatment, ultraviolet light exposure, infrared exposure, electron beam exposure. and/or subjected to other treatments that affect one or more properties of the membrane.
Applied Materials Precision 5000システムにおける改造したFCVDチャンバーでの堆積は、シラン又はTEOSのいずれかのプロセスキットを使用して行うことができる。チャンバーは直接的な液体注入(DLI)輸送能力を有する。前駆体は、前駆体の沸点に依存する輸送温度を有する液体である。初期の流動性窒化膜を堆積するために、典型的な液体前駆体流速は100~5000mg/minであり、インサイチュプラズマの電力密度は0.25~3.5W/cm2であり、圧力は0.75~12Torrであった。堆積ままの流動性膜を高密度化するために、膜を、100~1000℃、好ましくは300~400℃で、改造したPECVDチャンバーを使用して、真空中で、熱アニールするか、及び/又はUV硬化した。厚さ及び632nmにおける屈折率(RI)を、SCI反射計又はWoollamエリプソメータによって測定した。典型的な膜厚は10~2000nmの範囲であった。ケイ素ベースの膜の結合特性及び水素含有量(Si-H、C-H及びN-H)を、Nicolet透過フーリエ変換赤外分光(FTIR)ツールによって測定及び解析した。全ての密度測定を、X線反射率法(XRR)を使用して行った。X線光電子分光(XPS)分析及び二次イオン質量分析(SIMS)を行って、膜の元素組成を決定した。パターニングしたウエハにおける流動性及びギャップ充填効果を、Hitachi S-4700システムを2.0nmの分解能で使用して、断面の走査型電子顕微鏡(SEM)観察によって観察した。 Deposition in a modified FCVD chamber in an Applied Materials Precision 5000 system can be performed using either silane or TEOS process kits. The chamber has direct liquid injection (DLI) transport capability. A precursor is a liquid with a transport temperature that depends on the boiling point of the precursor. For initial flowable nitride film deposition, typical liquid precursor flow rate is 100-5000 mg/min, power density of in-situ plasma is 0.25-3.5 W/cm 2 and pressure is 0. 0.75 to 12 Torr. To densify the as-deposited flowable film, the film is thermally annealed at 100-1000° C., preferably 300-400° C., in vacuum using a modified PECVD chamber, and/or Or UV cured. The thickness and refractive index (RI) at 632 nm were measured by SCI reflectometer or Woollam ellipsometer. Typical film thicknesses ranged from 10 to 2000 nm. Bonding properties and hydrogen content (Si—H, CH and NH) of silicon-based films were measured and analyzed by a Nicolet Transmission Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) tool. All density measurements were made using X-ray reflectometry (XRR). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis and secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) were performed to determine the elemental composition of the films. Flow and gap-fill effects in patterned wafers were observed by cross-sectional scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation using a Hitachi S-4700 system with a resolution of 2.0 nm.
流動性CVD堆積を、以下の条件に従って行った。 Fluid CVD deposition was performed according to the following conditions.
実施例1:堆積条件-3000W リモートプラズマ源(RPS);200W インサイチュ;2torr;1500sccm NH3;1500mg/min テトラビニルシラン(TVS)。図1を参照すると、膜は硬化後のボイドを示している。 Example 1: Deposition conditions - 3000 W remote plasma source (RPS); 200 W in situ; 2 torr; 1500 sccm NH3 ; 1500 mg/min tetravinylsilane (TVS). Referring to FIG. 1, the film shows voids after curing.
実施例2:堆積条件-3000W RPS;200W インサイチュ;2torr;1000sccm NH3;1500mg/min TVS。図2を参照すると、より少ないNH3流は膜のボイドを減少させている。 Example 2: Deposition conditions - 3000 W RPS; 200 W in situ; 2 torr; 1000 sccm NH3 ; 1500 mg/min TVS. Referring to FIG. 2, less NH 3 flow reduces film voids.
実施例3:堆積条件-3000W RPS;0W インサイチュ;2torr;1000sccm NH3;1500mg/min TVS。図3を参照すると、インサイチュプラズマを止めることは特徴の頂部におけるピンチオフを引き起こすことがわかる。 Example 3: Deposition conditions - 3000 W RPS; 0 W in situ; 2 torr; 1000 sccm NH3 ; 1500 mg/min TVS. Referring to FIG. 3, it can be seen that turning off the in-situ plasma causes pinch-off at the top of the feature.
実施例4:堆積条件-TVSのみ;3000W RPS;200W インサイチュ;2torr;1000sccm NH3;1500mg/min TVS;TVS+トリシリルアミン(TSA);3000W RPS;200W インサイチュ;2torr;1000sccm NH3;1500mg/min TVS+900sccm TSA。表1を参照すると、TSAをチャンバーに加えることは、膜中へのNの取り込みを増加させないことがわかる。そのことは環境の酸化について膜を活性化する。 2 torr; 1000 sccm NH3 ; 1500 mg/min TVS; TVS + trisilylamine (TSA); 3000 W RPS; 200 W in situ; TVS + 900 sccm TSA. Referring to Table 1, it can be seen that adding TSA to the chamber does not increase the incorporation of N into the membrane. That activates the membrane with respect to environmental oxidation.
実施例4における追記事項:化学組成をX線光電子分光法(XPS)によって決定した。幾らかの表面酸化がTVS膜において観察された。膜のバルクはわずかな酸化を有していた。表面及びバルクの酸化は、TVS+TSA膜において非常に度合いが大きかった。
実施例5:堆積条件-TVSのみ;0W RPS;200W インサイチュ;8torr;400sccm NH3;2000mg/min TVS;200sccm He;5secの堆積;図4を参照すると、インサイチュプラズマの活性化のみを用いてTVSを使用するとき、堆積した膜は流動性を示したが、硬化後にはそれらは充填された特徴において視認可能な多孔性を示した。図2と比較して、これらの膜は、特徴中で有意に低い密度であると考えられる。 8 torr; 400 sccm NH3 ; 2000 mg/min TVS; 200 sccm He; Although the deposited films exhibited flowability when using , after curing they exhibited visible porosity in the filled features. Compared to FIG. 2, these films appear to be significantly less dense in features.
