Description
본 발명은 일반적으로 반도체 장치 제조 방법에 관한 것으로 특히, 환원 기체에 의한 강유전체 캐패시터의 특성 저하를 방지할 수 있는, 강유전체 캐패시터를 포함한 반도체 장치의 층간절연막 형성 방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention generally relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a method for forming an interlayer insulating film of a semiconductor device including a ferroelectric capacitor, which can prevent deterioration of characteristics of the ferroelectric capacitor due to a reducing gas.
종래의 강유전체를 사용하는 기억 소자의 층간절연막으로서 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착법(plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition)으로 형성되는 산화막을 이용한다. 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착법으로 산화막을 형성하기 위하여 소오스로 환원성 가스인 수소를 사용하는데 이때 패터닝된 강유전 캐패시터가 수소에 노출되어 강유전체의 전하 저장 능력이 감소하는 문제가 발생한다.An oxide film formed by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition is used as an interlayer insulating film of a memory element using a conventional ferroelectric. Hydrogen, a reducing gas, is used as a source to form an oxide film by plasma chemical vapor deposition. In this case, the patterned ferroelectric capacitor is exposed to hydrogen, thereby reducing the charge storage capability of the ferroelectric.
도1은 종래 기술에 따른 강유전체를 기억 소자로 사용하는 반도체 장치의 일부를 도시한 단면으로서, 하부전극(11), 강유전체막(12), 상부전극(13)으로 이루어지는 강유전체 캐패시터 형성이 완료된 반도체 기판(10) 상에 층간절연막(14)을 형성하고 금속막(15)을 증착하여 금속 배선을 형성한 것을 나타낸 것이다. 도시한 바와 같이 층간절연막(14)이 캐패시터와 직접 접촉하기 때문에 층간절연막 형성시 사용되는 환원가스로부터 영향을 받게된다. 즉, 층간절연막 증착시 일반적으로 사용되는 수소 가스는 강유전체내의 산소와 결합하여 페로브스카이트(perovskite) 구조를 이루는 산소의 팔면체(octahedral) 구조를 변형, 또는 파괴시키게 되어 강유전 성질이 저하되어 소자의 정보 저장 능력이 감소하는 문제가 발생된다.FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a portion of a semiconductor device using a ferroelectric material according to the prior art as a storage element. A semiconductor substrate having a ferroelectric capacitor formed of a lower electrode 11, a ferroelectric film 12, and an upper electrode 13 completed. The
강유전체의 전하 저장 능력의 감소는 기억 소자 동작에 있어 오동작 및 불량을 초래하는 단점이 있다.The reduction of the charge storage capability of the ferroelectric has the disadvantage of causing malfunctions and defects in the operation of the memory element.
상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위한 본 발명은 강유전체 캐패시터 상에 층간절연막을 형성하는 과정에서 수소 가스로 인한 강유전체 캐패시터의 손상을 최소화 할 수 있는 강유전체 캐패시터를 포함한 반도체 장치의 층간절연막 형성 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention for solving the above problems provides a method for forming an interlayer insulating film of a semiconductor device including a ferroelectric capacitor that can minimize the damage of the ferroelectric capacitor due to hydrogen gas in the process of forming an interlayer insulating film on the ferroelectric capacitor. There is a purpose.

상기 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 소정의 하부층이 형성된 반도체 기판 상에 하부전극, 강유전체막 및 상부전극으로 이루어지는 강유전체 캐패시터를 형성하는 단계; 전체 구조 상에 폴리실리콘막을 증착하는 단계; 상기 폴리실리콘막을 산화하여 실리콘산화막을 형성하면서 상기 강유전체막에 산소를 확산시키는 단계; 및 상기 전체 구조에 층간절연막을 형성하는 단계를 포함하는 반도체 장치의 층간절연막 형성 방법을 제공한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is a step of forming a ferroelectric capacitor consisting of a lower electrode, a ferroelectric film and an upper electrode on a semiconductor substrate having a predetermined lower layer; Depositing a polysilicon film on the entire structure; Diffusing oxygen into the ferroelectric film while oxidizing the polysilicon film to form a silicon oxide film; And forming an interlayer insulating film in the entire structure.
본 발명은 수소 가스의 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 강유전체 캐패시터 위에 폴리실리콘막을 증착한 후 산화시키고 강유전체 캐패시터가 보호된 상태에서 층간절연막을 형성하여 수소 가스로 인한 강유전체의 손상을 방지하는 방법이다.The present invention is a method for preventing the damage of the ferroelectric due to hydrogen gas by depositing a polysilicon film on the ferroelectric capacitor and then oxidizing to form an interlayer insulating film in a state where the ferroelectric capacitor is protected in order to minimize the influence of hydrogen gas.
상기 폴리실리콘 증착시 환원가스가 포함된 소오스에 의해 강유전체의 특성이 저하되지만 후속 산화 공정을 통하여 폴리실리콘을 실리콘 산화막으로 형성시키는 동시에 강유전체를 다시 산화시킴으로써 원래의 강유전체 특성을 회복할 수 있는 방법이다.Although the characteristics of the ferroelectric are deteriorated by the source containing the reducing gas when the polysilicon is deposited, it is a method of restoring the original ferroelectric properties by forming polysilicon as a silicon oxide film through a subsequent oxidation process and oxidizing the ferroelectric again.
이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명을 상세히 살펴본다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도2a 내지 도2b는 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 강유전체를 포함한 반도체 장치의 층간 절연막 형성 공정 단면도이다.2A to 2B are cross-sectional views of an interlayer insulating film forming process of a semiconductor device including a ferroelectric material according to an embodiment of the present invention.
먼저, 도2a에 도시한 바와 같이 소정의 하부층이 형성된 반도체 기판(20) 상에 하부전극(21), 강유전체막(22), 상부전극(23)으로 이루어지는 강유전체 캐패시터를 형성하고 전체 구조 상에 폴리실리콘막(24)을 증착한다. 이때 상기 폴리실리콘막(24)을 증착하는 소오스로 SiH4와 같은 수소가 포함된 물질이 사용되므로 상기 폴리실리콘막(24) 증착후의 강유전체는 그 특성이 크게 저하된다.First, as shown in FIG. 2A, a ferroelectric capacitor including a
이어서, 상기와 같은 강유전 특성의 저하를 회복시키기 위하여 노(爐, furnace)를 이용한 열처리 방법이나 급속 열처리(RTA, rapid thermal annealing) 방법으로 약 500 내지 900 ℃의 온도 범위의 산소 분위기에서 상기 폴리실리콘막(24)을 산화시킴과 동시에 여분의 산소가 SiO2와 강유전체의 계면을 통하여 확산되도록 한다. 상기와 같은 산소 분위기에서 실시하는 열처리 과정에서 폴리실리콘을 층분히 산화시켜 증착된 폴리실리콘막(24)을 모두 SiO2막으로 바꾸어 이후의 층간절연막 형성 공정에서 환원 가스에 대한 장벽 역할을 하도록 한다. 또한, 상기 열처리 과정에서 충분한 산소 공급을 하여 산소가 SiO2막을 통하여 강유전체까지 확산되도록 한다. 따라서 강유전체에 상기 열처리 공정으로 충분한 산소 및 열에너지가 공급되므로 상기 폴리실리콘막(24) 증착시 수소에 의해 열화된 페로브스카이트 구조가 복구되어 강유전 성질을 회복하게 된다.Subsequently, in order to recover the degradation of the ferroelectric properties, the polysilicon is formed in an oxygen atmosphere in a temperature range of about 500 to 900 ° C. by a heat treatment method using a furnace or a rapid thermal annealing (RTA) method. At the same time as the
따라서, 폴리실리콘막(24) 증착 후의 산화 공정을 통하여 강유전체 캐패시터의 유전 특성을 회복시키는 동시에 환원가스의 장벽으로 작용할 SiO2막을 동시에 형성할 수 있다.Therefore, the SiO 2 film which serves as a barrier for reducing gas can be simultaneously formed while restoring the dielectric properties of the ferroelectric capacitor through the oxidation process after deposition of the
다음으로, 도2b에 도시한 바와 같이 상기 산화된 폴리실리콘막(24) 상에 층간절연막(25)을 형성한다. 상기 층간절연막(25) 형성시 상기 산화된 폴리실리콘막(24)이 환원 가스(H)가 강유전체 캐패시터의 강유전체막을 침투하는 것을 방지하여 강유전체 캐패시터의 특성 저하를 방지할 수 있다.Next, an interlayer
이상에서 설명한 본 발명은 전술한 실시예 및 첨부된 도면에 의해 한정되는 것이 아니고, 본 발명의 기술적 사상을 벗어나지 않는 범위 내에서 여러 가지 치환, 변형 및 변경이 가능하다는 것이 본 발명이 속하는 기술 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자에게 있어 명백할 것이다.The present invention described above is not limited to the above-described embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, modifications, and changes are possible in the technical field of the present invention without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be clear to those of ordinary knowledge.
상기와 같이 이루어지는 본 발명은 실리콘의 산화 공정으로 층간 절연막 형성시 환원가스에 대한 강유전 캐패시터의 손상을 방지할 수 있어서 소자의 특성을 향상시킬 수 있다.The present invention as described above can prevent the damage of the ferroelectric capacitor to the reducing gas when forming the interlayer insulating film by the oxidation process of silicon can improve the characteristics of the device.
