Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a capacitance having small leakage currents and a large capacitance value by forming an silicon oxide layer on the surface of an silicon nitride layer shaped on a dielectric layer. CONSTITUTION:A Ta2O5 layer 2 is formed onto the surface of an silicon substrate 1. An silicon nitride layer 3 is shaped onto the surface of the layer 2. A thin silicon oxide layer 4 is formed onto the surface of the silicon nitride layer 3 through heat treatment in an atmosphere containing oxygen. When there are pin holes and sections having inferior electric insulating properties in the silicon nitride layer 3 and the Ta2O5 layer 2 at that time, these pin holes and sections are recovered through heat treatment. Oxygen is diffused selectively to the surface of the silicon substrate 1 through these defective sections to shape an oxide film. When a polycrystalline silicon layer 5 is formed selectively onto the surface of the silicon oxide layer 4, capacitance, which uses the silicon substrate 1 and the polycrystalline silicon layer as electrodes and has small leakage currents and a large capacitance value, is acquired.

The degree of integration of semiconductor devices such as dynamic random access memories that have capacitance as a component is increasing year by year. Conventionally, high integration has been achieved by miniaturizing the patterns of wiring and circuit elements, but such miniaturization reduces the amount of accumulated charge corresponding to signals, which increases the This is undesirable in terms of preventing memory malfunctions (ft errors) caused by radiation.

There is a problem in that when a voltage of 5 .mu. is applied to the layer, a tunnel current flows, so in principle it cannot be used as an insulating film.

As mentioned above, in the conventional optical capacitor manufacturing method, polycrystalline grains grow inside the dielectric layer during heat treatment, or a reaction occurs between the dielectric layer and the electrode of the capacitor, deteriorating the film quality and causing pinholes. This has the disadvantage that a large leakage current capacity is obtained because there are localized areas with poor electrical insulation.

Next, as shown in Figure 1 (b), 4 T12011 layers 2
A silicon nitride layer 3t- having a thickness of 100 to 200 layers is formed on the surface of the silicon nitride layer 3t by CVD or the like. This silicon nitride layer 3 is provided to prevent a reaction between the Taxos layer 2 and a polycrystalline silicon electrode 5, which will be described later, and to prevent excess oxygen from diffusing in the oxidation step to be performed later. Subsequently, when heat treatment is performed at a temperature of 800 to 1000°C in an atmosphere containing oxygen or moisture (steam), a thin silicon oxide layer 4 is formed on the surface of the silicon nitride layer 3, as shown in FIG. 1(C). It is formed. Since the diffusion coefficient of oxygen in the silicon nitride layer 3 is small, only a slight oxide film is formed on the surface, but there are also pinholes and electrical insulation in the silicon nitride layer 3 and the Tatos layer 2. If defective portions exist, these defective portions are repaired by heat treatment, and oxygen is selectively diffused to the surface of the silicon substrate 1 through these defective portions to form an oxide film. .

A silicon nitride layer is laminated on a dielectric layer with a high dielectric constant such as IBJITiO or TiO2, and then oxidized to form a thin silicon oxide layer on the silicon nitride layer, so the pins of the dielectric layer are Defects such as holes are repaired and the leakage current is reduced, and the silicon nitride layer is only slightly oxidized, so there is almost no decrease in capacitance. Therefore, the leakage current is small and the capacitance is large. This has the effect of increasing capacity.
