Description

반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법Multi-layer Etching Method of Semiconductor Device

본 발명은 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법에 대한 것으로 특히, 식각 프로파일이 안정적인 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method for etching a multilayer film of a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a method for etching a multilayer film of a semiconductor device having a stable etching profile.

반도체 소자가 고집적화 되면서 고속의 LSI의 필요성이 더욱커지고 있다. 이를 만족시키기 위해 저항이 낮은 금속게이트에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 이중 특히 폴리실리콘층상에 텅스텐(W)이나 몰리부덴(Mo)이나 실리사이드 중에 하나가 증착된 저저항 금속게이트에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행중이다.As semiconductor devices are highly integrated, the need for high-speed LSI is increasing. In order to satisfy this, there is a growing interest in low-resistance metal gates. In particular, research is being actively conducted on low-resistance metal gates in which one of tungsten (W), molybdenum (Mo) or silicide is deposited on a polysilicon layer.

첨부 도면을 참조하여 종래 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법에 대하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, a method of etching a multilayer film of a conventional semiconductor device will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1a 내지 1c는 종래 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법을 나타낸 공정단면도이다.1A to 1C are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of etching a multilayer film of a conventional semiconductor device.

종래 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법은 도 1a에 도시한 바와 같이 반도체 기판(1)에 실리콘산화막(2)과 폴리실리콘층(3)을 차례로 증착한다. 그리고 폴리실리콘층(3)상에 티타늄 나이트라이드(TiN)나 텅스텐 실리콘 나이트라이드(WSiN)와 같은 물질을 증착하여 확산방지막(4)을 형성한다. 이후에 확산방지막(4)상에 텅스텐이나 몰리부덴(Mo)을 증착하여 금속층(5)을 형성한다. 또는 확산방지막(4)과 금속층(5)을 증착하지 않고 직접 금속실리사이드를 증착할 수 도 있다. 그리고 금속층(5)상에 질화막이나 산화막을 증착하여 하드마스크층(6)을 형성한다. 하드마스크층(6)상에 감광막(7)을 도포한 후에 노광 및 현상공정으로 소정부분을 선택적으로 패터닝한다.In the multilayer film etching method of the conventional semiconductor device, as shown in FIG. 1A, the silicon oxide film 2 and the polysilicon layer 3 are sequentially deposited on the semiconductor substrate 1. The diffusion barrier layer 4 is formed by depositing a material such as titanium nitride (TiN) or tungsten silicon nitride (WSiN) on the polysilicon layer 3. Thereafter, tungsten or molybdenum (Mo) is deposited on the diffusion barrier 4 to form the metal layer 5. Alternatively, the metal silicide may be directly deposited without depositing the diffusion barrier 4 and the metal layer 5. Then, a nitride film or an oxide film is deposited on the metal layer 5 to form the hard mask layer 6. After applying the photosensitive film 7 on the hard mask layer 6, predetermined portions are selectively patterned by exposure and development processes.

도 1b에 도시한 바와 같이 패터닝된 감광막(7)을 마스크로 이용하여 하드마스크층(6)을 상기 금속층(5)이 드러나도록 이방성 식각한 후에 감광막(7)을 제거한다.As shown in FIG. 1B, the photoresist layer 7 is removed after anisotropic etching of the hard mask layer 6 to expose the metal layer 5 using the patterned photoresist layer 7 as a mask.

도 1c에 도시한 바와 같이 식각된 하드마스크층(6)을 마스크로 이용하여 먼저 플로린가스, SF6, NF3+HCl, HBr, Cl2, Br2, 그리고 CCl4를 서로 혼합한 가스로 금속층(5)과 확산방지막(4)과 폴리실리콘층(3)을 소정깊이로 이방성 식각한다. 이후에 SiCl4+인너가스(inert gas), N2, O2, 그리고 CO 혹은 HBr가스를 이용하여 폴리실리콘층(3)을 실리콘산화막(2)이 드러날때까지 식각한다. 이때 식각가스에 의해서 실리콘산화막(2)상에 식각잔여물(7)이 생길 수 있다.As shown in FIG. 1C, the metal layer is a gas obtained by mixing Florin gas, SF 6 , NF 3 + HCl, HBr, Cl 2 , Br 2 , and CCl 4 with each other using the etched hard mask layer 6 as a mask. (5), the diffusion barrier film 4 and the polysilicon layer 3 are anisotropically etched to a predetermined depth. Thereafter, the polysilicon layer 3 is etched using SiCl 4 + inner gas, N 2, O 2, and CO or HBr gas until the silicon oxide film 2 is exposed. At this time, the etching residue 7 may be generated on the silicon oxide film 2 by the etching gas.

상기와 같은 종래 반도체 소자의 제조방법은 다음과 같은 문제가 있다.The conventional method of manufacturing a semiconductor device as described above has the following problems.

첫째, 다층막을 식각하기 위해서 먼저 플로린계와, 클로린계와, 브로마인계 가스를 혼용해서 쓰기 때문에 챔버의 벽에 폴리머가 증착되므로 공정 재현성이 떨어지고 세정 주기가 짧다.First, in order to etch the multilayer film, first, a mixture of florin-based, chlorine-based, and bromine-based gases is used, so that polymers are deposited on the walls of the chamber, resulting in poor process reproducibility and short cleaning cycles.

둘째, 상부 금속층과 폴리실리콘층 사이에 언더컷을 방지하기 위하여 Br계가스를 사용하여 측벽 보호막을 형성하고 있으나 브로마이드 반응 프로덕트의 기상압력이 낮아서 식각된 표면에 식각잔여물이 남기 때문에 별도의 세정 공정이 요구된다.Second, sidewall protection layer is formed by using Br-based gas to prevent undercut between the upper metal layer and the polysilicon layer. Required.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위하여 안출한 것으로 식각공정의 재현성을 높이고 수직프로파일을 갖는 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법을 제공하는 데 그 목적이 있다.An object of the present invention is to provide a multilayer film etching method of a semiconductor device having a vertical profile and improving the reproducibility of the etching process to solve the above problems.

첨부 도면을 참조하여 본 발명 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법에 대하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the accompanying drawings, a method of etching a multilayer film of a semiconductor device of the present invention will be described.

도 2a 내지 2c는 본 발명 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법을 나타낸 공정단면도이고, 도 3은 플로린 식각가스에 산소가스만 넣어 반도체 소자의 다층막을 식각하였을 때의 사진이며, 도 4는 본 발명에 따라 반도체 소자의 다층막을 식각하였을 때의 사진이다.2A to 2C are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of etching a multilayer film of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a photograph when the multilayer film of a semiconductor device is etched by adding only oxygen gas to a fluorine etching gas, and FIG. It is a photograph when the multilayer film of an element is etched.

반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법은 도 2a에 도시한 바와 같이 반도체 기판(21)에 실리콘산화막(22)과 폴리실리콘층(23)을 차례로 적층한다. 그리고 폴리실리콘층(23)상에 티타늄 나이트라이드(TiN)나 WSiN와 같은 물질을 증착하여 확산방지막(24)을 형성한다. 이후에 확산방지막(24)상에 텅스텐이나 몰리부덴(Mo)을 증착하여 금속층(25)을 형성한다. 여기에서 상기 확산방지막(24)과 금속층(25)을 증착하는 대신에 직접 금속실리사이드를 증착하여도 된다. 그리고 금속층(25)상에 질화막이나 산화막을 증착하여 하드마스크층(26)을 형성한다. 이후에 하드마스크층(26)상에 감광막(27)을 도포한 후 노광 및 현상공정으로 소정부분을 선택적으로 패터닝한다.In the multilayer film etching method of the semiconductor device, as illustrated in FIG. 2A, the silicon oxide film 22 and the polysilicon layer 23 are sequentially stacked on the semiconductor substrate 21. The diffusion barrier layer 24 is formed by depositing a material such as titanium nitride (TiN) or WSiN on the polysilicon layer 23. Thereafter, tungsten or molybdenum (Mo) is deposited on the diffusion barrier 24 to form the metal layer 25. Instead of depositing the diffusion barrier 24 and the metal layer 25, metal silicide may be deposited directly. The hard mask layer 26 is formed by depositing a nitride film or an oxide film on the metal layer 25. Thereafter, the photoresist 27 is coated on the hard mask layer 26, and then predetermined portions are selectively patterned by an exposure and development process.

도 2b에 도시한 바와 같이 패터닝된 감광막(27)을 마스크로 이용하여 하드마스크층(26)을 상기 금속층(25)이 드러나도록 이방성 식각한 후에 감광막(27)을 제거한다.As shown in FIG. 2B, the photoresist layer 27 is removed after anisotropic etching of the hard mask layer 26 to expose the metal layer 25 using the patterned photoresist layer 27 as a mask.

도 2c에 도시한 바와 같이 식각된 하드마스크층(26)을 마스크로 이용하여 먼저 플로린 식각가스 챔버에 폴리머 생성의 원인이 되는 카본(carbon)을 함유하지 않은 플로린가스와, SF6와, NF3+O2+N2혼합가스를 주입하여 금속층(25)과 확산방지막(24)과 폴리실리콘층(23)을 이방성 식각한다. 이때 폴리실리콘층(23)은 소정깊이 까지만 식각되도록 한다. 이때 산소가스(O2)는 총유량의 10∼30% 범위가 되도록 주입하고, 질소가스(N2)는 총유량의 40∼80% 범위가 되도록 주입한다. 그리고 이때 반도체 기판(21)의 온도는 -20℃∼60℃의 범위가 되도록 진행하며, 소오스파워는 300∼1000Watt 범위가 되도록 하고, 바이어스 파워는 30∼200Watt 범위가 되도록 하며 챔버의 압력은 2∼10m Torr가 되도록 한다. 이때 플로린 식각가스 챔버는 헬리콘(Helicon)이나 헬리칼(Helical)이나 티씨피(Transformer Coupled Plasma:TCP)나 이씨알(Electron Cyclotron Resonance:ECR)과 같은 고밀도 식각장비를 사용한다.Using the etched hard mask layer 26 as a mask as shown in FIG. 2C, first, a florin gas containing no carbon, which causes polymer formation, in the florin etching gas chamber, SF 6 , and NF 3 is used. + O 2 + N 2 mixed gas is injected to anisotropically etch the metal layer 25, the diffusion barrier 24, and the polysilicon layer 23. At this time, the polysilicon layer 23 is etched only up to a predetermined depth. At this time, oxygen gas (O 2 ) is injected to be in the range of 10 to 30% of the total flow rate, nitrogen gas (N 2 ) is injected to be in the range of 40 to 80% of the total flow rate. At this time, the temperature of the semiconductor substrate 21 proceeds to be in the range of -20 ° C to 60 ° C, the source power is in the range of 300 to 1000 Watts, the bias power is in the range of 30 to 200 Watts, and the chamber pressure is 2 to 10m Torr At this time, the Florin etching gas chamber uses high density etching equipment such as Helicon, Helical, Transformer Coupled Plasma (TCP), or Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR).

다음에 클로린 식각가스 챔버에서 Cl2+O2가스를 10:1에서 2.5:1의 혼합비를 갖도록 주입하여 식각되지 않은 폴리실리콘층(23)을 오버식각한다.Next, in the chlorine etching gas chamber, Cl 2 + O 2 gas is injected to have a mixing ratio of 10: 1 to 2.5: 1 to overetch the unetched polysilicon layer 23.

여기서 플로린 식각가스 챔버에 주입되는 산소가스(O2)는 폴리실리콘층(23)의 측면에 쉽게 보호막을 형성하여 폴리실리콘층(23)의 측면이 식각되는 것을 방지하는 역할을 하고, N2가스는 금속층(25)의 측벽에 보호막을 형성하여 금속층(25)의 측면이 과도식각되는 것을 방지하는 역할을 한다.Here, the oxygen gas (O 2 ) injected into the florin etching gas chamber serves to prevent the side surface of the polysilicon layer 23 from being etched by easily forming a protective film on the side of the polysilicon layer 23, and the N 2 gas. The protective layer is formed on the sidewall of the metal layer 25 to prevent the side surface of the metal layer 25 from being excessively etched.

그리고 클로린 식각가스 챔버에서 Cl2+O2와 같은 식각가스를 이용하여 폴리실리콘층(23)을 식각할 때는 하부의 실리콘산화막(22)과 200:1이상의 선택비를 갖고 수직하게 폴리실리콘층(23)을 식각할 수 있다.In the chlorine etching gas chamber, when the polysilicon layer 23 is etched by using an etching gas such as Cl 2 + O 2 , the polysilicon layer perpendicularly has a selectivity of 200: 1 or more with the lower silicon oxide layer 22. 23) can be etched.

플로린 식각가스 챔버에 플로린가스와 산소가스만을 주입하여 다층막을 식각하였을 경우에는 도 3에 도시한 바와 같이 폴리실리콘층(23)까지 수직하게 식각되지 못하고 폴리실리콘층(23)이 언더에치되는 현상이 나타난다.When the multilayer film is etched by injecting only florin gas and oxygen gas into the fluorine etching gas chamber, as shown in FIG. 3, the polysilicon layer 23 is underetched without being vertically etched up to the polysilicon layer 23. Appears.

그리고 본 발명과 같이 플로린 식각가스 챔버와 클로린 식각가스 챔버를 통하여 다층막을 식각할 경우에 도 4에 도시한 바와 같이 폴리실리콘층(23)까지 수직한 프로파일을 갖고 식각됨을 알 수 있다.In addition, when the multilayer film is etched through the fluorine etching gas chamber and the chlorine etching gas chamber as in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4, the polysilicon layer 23 has a vertical profile to be etched.

상기와 같은 본 발명 반도체 소자의 다층막 식각방법은 다음과 같은 효과가 있다.The multilayer film etching method of the semiconductor device of the present invention as described above has the following effects.

첫째, 식각장비를 오염시키는 가장 큰 원인인 폴리머 생성을 주도하는 카본을 포함한 플로린 가스를 사용하지 않으므로 식각 챔버의 오염을 줄이고, 공정재현성 및 세정 주기를 개선시킬 수 있다.First, it is possible to reduce the contamination of the etching chamber and improve the process reproducibility and the cleaning cycle since it does not use the florin gas containing carbon which leads the polymer generation, which is the biggest cause of contamination of the etching equipment.

둘째, 플로린 가스와 클로린 식각가스가 혼용되어 식각되지 않으므로 혼용가스에 의한 챔버의 오염없이 공정을 진행할 수있다.Second, since the florin gas and the chlorine etching gas are not mixed and etched, the process can be performed without contamination of the chamber by the mixed gas.

셋째, 브로마인 가스를 전혀 사용하지 않으므로 식각잔여물이 발생하는 것을 방지할 수 있다.Third, since no bromine gas is used, it is possible to prevent the etching residues from occurring.
