置の製造方法に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to semiconductor integrated circuits, and more particularly, to semiconductor integrated circuits, in which polycrystalline silicon is injected into grooves formed by etching Si through an insulator.
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device in which isolation is performed by embedding a semiconductor device.

2. Description of the Related Art Groove isolation structures are known in which semiconductor elements are isolated by grooves formed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate. In many cases, the grooves are filled by depositing polycrystalline Si or the like from above the grooves. At this time, there were drawbacks such as the grooves not being completely filled and cavities being likely to be formed within the grooves.
溝内に多結晶シリコンを充填する1方法につい
て、本願発明者等は本願の先願である特願昭54−
43020号公報において開示している。以下要点を
簡単に説明する。 Regarding one method of filling polycrystalline silicon into the groove, the inventors of the present application have disclosed a method of filling polycrystalline silicon into the trench in Japanese Patent Application No.
It is disclosed in Publication No. 43020. The main points will be briefly explained below.
はじめにシリコン基板上に形成した絶縁膜をマ
スクにしてシリコン基板をエツチングし、溝を形
成する。つぎに溝内のシリコンを若干エツチング
して上記絶縁膜のひさしを作る。 First, the silicon substrate is etched using an insulating film formed on the silicon substrate as a mask to form a groove. Next, the silicon in the groove is slightly etched to form the eaves of the insulating film.
つぎに多結晶シリコンを上から堆積し、溝底と
溝外の多結晶シリコンを段切れさせて堆積する。 Next, polycrystalline silicon is deposited from above, and the polycrystalline silicon at the bottom of the groove and outside the groove is separated and deposited.
つぎに溝底がウエハ内で切れ目なくつながつて
いることを利用し、溝底の多結晶シリコンの表面
に陽極酸化等の選択的な処理を行う。これにより
溝外の多結晶シリコンを除去する。 Next, taking advantage of the fact that the groove bottoms are seamlessly connected within the wafer, selective treatment such as anodization is performed on the polycrystalline silicon surface at the groove bottom. This removes polycrystalline silicon outside the groove.
つぎに溝底の多結晶シリコンを種にして多結晶
シリコンを選択成長させ、溝を充填する。 Next, using the polycrystalline silicon at the bottom of the trench as a seed, polycrystalline silicon is selectively grown to fill the trench.
以上紹介した選択成長による溝充填方法は、溝

かし、多結晶シリコンを基板表面より上まで埋込
もうとすると、多結晶シリコンが絶縁膜のひさし
につかえ、ひさしの直下に空洞が発生することが
あるという欠点があつた。 The trench filling method using selective growth introduced above has the advantage that the inside of the trench is easily filled because the filling material is formed by selective growth from the bottom of the trench. However, when attempting to bury polycrystalline silicon above the surface of the substrate, the polycrystalline silicon gets stuck in the eaves of the insulating film, resulting in the formation of a cavity directly under the eaves.
従つて、絶縁膜を除去した後、空洞のあつた個
所に落ちこみが生じることがあるという欠点があ
つた。 Therefore, after removing the insulating film, there is a drawback that depressions may be formed in the areas where the cavities were.
本発明は、溝上部のSiを逆テーパ状にエツチン

すると共に、溝端部の多結晶Siの落込みを防ぎ、

The present invention eliminates the need for the Si 3 N 4 film eaves by etching the Si at the top of the groove in a reverse taper shape, and prevents the polycrystalline Si at the edge of the groove from falling.
It is possible to provide a shape suitable for the subsequent process of forming a transistor.
以下、本発明をバイポーラ集積回路の製造に適

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail using an example in which the present invention is applied to manufacturing a bipolar integrated circuit.

A Si epitaxial layer 3 serving as an active part of a transistor was formed on a substrate 1, and its surface was thermally oxidized to form an SiO 2 film 4. After patterning the SiO 2 film 4 using a normal photoetching method, the SiO 2 film 4 is
Using this as a mask, the Si was etched using a reactive sputtering method to form vertical grooves 5 (Fig. 1). Next, the Si was etched using an alkaline anisotropic etching solution to form a reversely tapered groove (Figure 2).

LSIに比べて約2倍の集積度が得られた。 Next, for the purpose of preventing channel generation, an impurity having conductivity opposite to that of the buried layer 2 was introduced into the bottom surface of the trench by ion implantation. After annealing in N2 , the SiO2 film 4 is removed, oxidized to form a SiO2 film 6, and further
A Si 3 N 4 film 7 was formed. A polycrystalline Si film was formed on the bottom of the groove and the surface of the substrate by vapor deposition or sputtering. Thereafter, the portion of the polycrystalline Si film formed on the surface of the substrate is removed by anodization, and the portion formed at the bottom of the groove is removed as shown in FIG. 8 left. Using the polycrystalline silicon film 8 at the bottom of the trench as a seed, polycrystalline Si 9 was selectively grown to fill the inside of the trench. Even when the polycrystalline Si 9 was grown above the substrate surface, no depression occurred at the end 10. After oxidizing the surface of polycrystalline Si9, Si3 on the active layer surface
The N 4 film 7 was removed, a Si 3 N 4 film was again formed on the entire surface to stabilize the surface, and a transistor was formed in the active layer 3. Since the polycrystalline Si above the grooves was oxidized, the pressure applied to Si layers 1 to 3 was small and almost no crystal defects were generated. In addition, since the shape of the Si layer 3 is reversely tapered at the end 10, even if the base region and emitter region are opened using self-alignment using this end, the shape of the emitter region will be abnormal (depression). Walled-emitter
This is advantageous for manufacturing transistors with this structure. Therefore, by combining the groove separation method and the walled-emitter structure, the isoplanar method
The degree of integration was approximately twice that of LSI.

いても本発明の実施は可能である。 In this example, a Si substrate with a (100) plane orientation is used, but it is also possible to obtain the cross-sectional shape shown in Figure 4 by etching the Si using another method (for example, microwave plasma method). For example, the present invention can be implemented using a substrate of any plane orientation.

One of the advantages of the isoplanar method is that the planar dimensions after selective oxidation are determined by the processed dimensions of the SiN film, so even if the absolute value varies, the variation in dimensions within the chip is small. On the contrary,
The method of embedding polycrystalline Si into a groove formed by etching Si has the disadvantage that the planar dimensions after embedding are affected by the thickness of the polycrystalline Si. However, by using the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5 (a partially enlarged view of FIG. 3), it is possible to avoid being influenced by the thickness of polycrystalline Si 9. In other words, the surface and inner surface of the groove are
The combined film thickness of the SiO 2 film 7 is t, the surface 12 is higher by (π/2)t than the polycrystalline Si surface 11 which is at the same height as the surface of the epitaxial growth layer, and the surface is lower by t than the surface 11. 13, if the thickness of polycrystalline Si is between surface 12 and surface 13, polycrystalline Si
Even if the Si 3 N 4 film 7 and the SiO 2 6 are etched using the mask 9 as a mask, the planar dimensions of the opening do not change. In the above estimation, the radius of curvature of the Si 3 N 4 film covering the upper end of the groove in FIG. 5 is assumed to be approximately t. At this time, the circumferential distance from horizontal to vertical along the circle of curvature of the Si 3 N 4 film is approximately (π/2)t. For this reason, as a rough guide,
It is assumed that if growth of (π/2)t occurs at the center of the groove, the growth will wrap around to almost directly above the upper end of the groove.

る。 On the other hand, it is also possible to actively use a selective oxidation method to suppress variations in planar dimensions. For this purpose, the mask shown in Figure 1 is used as a mask for etching Si.
Instead of SiO 2 film 4, Si 3 N 4 film 1 is used as shown in Figure 6.
5 and the SiO 2 film 14, selective oxidation may be performed after Si etching to form the SiO 2 film 16 shown in FIG. 7 in place of the SiO 2 film 6 shown in FIG. 3.
The remaining Si 3 N 4 film 15 is removed with phosphoric acid and the entire surface is covered again.
If a Si 3 N 4 film is formed, a structure similar to that shown in FIG. 3 will be obtained.
