Fluorine-based gas such as F 4 or gas mainly containing chlorine-based gas such as CCl 4 has been used. However, if a deep groove is to be formed only by dry etching with such a gas, the undercut 3 (wrapping around the etching into the mask F portion) as shown in FIG. 1 and the groove as shown in FIG. Side etching (etching in the lateral direction) such as the bulge 4 in the central portion is likely to occur, which is a problem in terms of processing accuracy. Where 1 in each figure
Is a substrate and 21 is a mask.
本発明の目的は、上記の欠点を解消した溝および深い溝

以下、本発明を実施例を参照して詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.

スのかわりにO2ガスを導入して放電すればよい。ま
た、堆積は、例えばSiCl4−O2混合ガスを導入して
放電することによつて行うことができる。FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an etching process of the present invention. First, as shown in FIG. 1A, for example, SiO 2 is formed on the Si substrate 1.
After forming the etching mask 2 such as a film (oxide film) Si 3 N 4 film (nitride film), the Si groove is shallowly etched with a fluorine-based gas such as CF 4 or SF 6 to form the Si groove 5. . Next, after the inner surface of the Si groove is coated with an etching resistant coating, the etching resistant coating is anisotropically etched to remove the etching resistant coating on the bottom surface 6 of the Si groove as shown in (2). , The sidewalls of the Si groove are covered with the etching resistant film 7. As the etching resistant film, it is preferable to use a SiO 2 film formed by plasma oxidation or deposition. The plasma oxidation may be performed by introducing O 2 gas instead of the etching gas and discharging. Further, the deposition can be performed, for example, by introducing a SiCl 4 —O 2 mixed gas and discharging.
上記の工程をさらにもう一度繰り返した後、さらにSi
のエツチングを行なうと、(3)の如きSi溝を得る。After repeating the above process once more,
Etching is performed to obtain a Si groove as shown in (3).
以上のようにしてSi溝を形成すると、アンダーカツト
は第1図のa1から第3図(3)のb1のように低減でき
る。本実施例では、Siのエツチングを3回に分割して
いるので、b1はa1の3分の1になる。When the Si groove is formed as described above, the undercut can be reduced from a 1 in FIG. 1 to b 1 in FIG. 3 (3). In this embodiment, since the divided three times etching of Si, b 1 is one third of a 1.
また、溝中央部のふくらみによるサイドエツチングも本
発明により第2図のa2から第4図のb2に低減できるこ
とは明らかである。It is also apparent that the present invention can reduce side etching due to the bulge at the center of the groove from a 2 in FIG. 2 to b 2 in FIG.
本発明により形成したSi溝には、第3図(3)および第
4図に示す如くSi溝側壁に波形が付くのが特徴であ
る。The Si groove formed by the present invention is characterized in that the side wall of the Si groove is corrugated as shown in FIGS. 3 (3) and 4.
本発明のSiエツチングをさらに多段階に分割すること
によりSi溝側壁の波形の高さを減少させ、見かけ上垂
直なSi溝を形成することもできる。By dividing the Si etching of the present invention into multiple steps, the height of the corrugation on the side wall of the Si groove can be reduced to form an apparently vertical Si groove.
逆に、アンダーカツトあるいはサイドエツチングが生じ
易いエツチング条件を用いて本発明によるSi溝の形成
を行なうと、第5図,第6図の如くSi溝の側壁に大き
な波形を形成することもできる。このような溝は、例え
ば第7図に示すような凹形のキヤパシタの形成に用いる
と、面積効率を良くすることができる。すなわち、第7
図では、溝表面に絶縁膜12と電極13を形成してMI
S型キヤパシタを構成しているが、溝側壁がしわ状にな
つているため、同じ深さで垂直な溝を形成した場合に比
べてキヤパシタ面積が大きくなる。On the contrary, if the Si groove is formed according to the present invention under the etching condition where undercutting or side etching is likely to occur, a large corrugation can be formed on the side wall of the Si groove as shown in FIGS. When such a groove is used to form a concave capacitor as shown in FIG. 7, for example, the area efficiency can be improved. That is, the seventh
In the figure, the insulating film 12 and the electrode 13 are formed on the groove surface, and MI
Although the S-type capacitor is formed, since the groove side wall is wrinkled, the capacitor area is larger than that when a vertical groove is formed at the same depth.
なお、本発明ではSiのエツチングと耐エツチング性被
膜の形成とを別々に行なつているが、これを同時に行な
うためにSiエツチングガスにO2ガスを多量混合して
定常的にエツチング面に被膜を形成しようとすると、エ
ツチング速度が著しく低下したり、エツチング面が荒れ
たりするので好ましくない。In the present invention, the etching of Si and the formation of the etching resistant coating are carried out separately, but in order to carry out this simultaneously, a large amount of O 2 gas is mixed with the Si etching gas to constantly coat the etching surface. However, it is not preferable because the etching speed is remarkably reduced and the etching surface is roughened.
以上説明したように、本発明によつてSi溝をn分割し
てエツチングすると、サイドエツチ量aをa/nに低減
できるので、高精度にSi溝を形成できる。As described above, according to the present invention, when the Si groove is divided into n parts and etched, the side etching amount a can be reduced to a / n, so that the Si groove can be formed with high accuracy.
