본 발명은 반도체 메모리장치 제조방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 정전용량을 증가시키기 위하여 종래의 스택형 커패시터와 실린더형 커패시터를 병합한 새로운 구조의 커패시터를 포함하는 반도체 메모리장치 제조방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device, and more particularly, to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device including a capacitor having a new structure in which a conventional stacked capacitor and a cylindrical capacitor are integrated to increase capacitance.

반도체장치의 제조가술의 발달로 반도체 기억장치의 집적도는 약3년마다 4배로 증대해 오고 있다. 이러한 집적도의 향상은 기억단위인 메모리 셀의 면적축소에 기인해 왔다. 그러나, 메모리 셀의 면적축소는 필연적으로 데이터 기억을 위한 정전용량의 감소를 가져와서 정보독출능력을 저하시키고 소프트 에러(soft error)율을 증가시킬 뿐만아니라, 저전압에서의 소자의 동작을 어렵게 하여 작동시 전력소모를 과다하게 하기 때문에 반도체장치의 고집적화를 위해서는 반드시 해결해야 할 과제이다.`With the development of semiconductor device manufacturing techniques, the density of semiconductor memory devices has increased four times every three years. This improvement in density has been due to the reduction of the area of the memory cell as a storage unit. However, the reduction of the area of memory cells inevitably leads to a reduction in the capacitance for data storage, thereby lowering the information reading capability and increasing the soft error rate, and making the operation of the device at low voltage difficult. It is a problem that must be solved for high integration of semiconductor devices because it consumes too much power.

통상, 약 1.5㎛2의 메모리셀 면적을 가지는 64Mb급 디램(DRAM)에 있어서는 일반적인 2차원적인 스택형 메모리셀을 사용한다면 Ta2O5와 같은 고유전물질을 사용하더라도 충분한 커패시턴스를 얻기가 힘들기 때문에, 3차원적인 구조의 스택형 커패시터를 제안하여 커패시턴스 향상을 도모하고 있다. 예를 들어, 이중스택(Double Stack)구조, 핀(Fin)구조, 원통현 전극(Cylindrical Electrode)구조, 스프레드 스택(Spread Stack)구조 및 박스(Box)구조는 메모리셀의 셀커패시턴스 증가를 위해 제안된 3차원적 구조의 스토리지전극들이다.In general, in the case of 64Mb DRAM having a memory cell area of about 1.5 μm 2 , it is difficult to obtain sufficient capacitance even when using a general two-dimensional stack type memory cell using a high dielectric material such as Ta 2 O 5 . Therefore, the stack capacitor of the three-dimensional structure is proposed to improve the capacitance. For example, a double stack structure, a fin structure, a cylindrical electrode structure, a spread stack structure, and a box structure are proposed to increase cell capacitance of a memory cell. 3D structured storage electrodes.

3차원적 스택형 커패시터구조에 있어서, 특히 원통구조는 원통의 외면 뿐만아니라 내면까지 유효커패시터 영역으로 이용할 수 있어 64Mb급 메모리셀이나 그 이상급으로 고집적되는 메모리셀에 적합한 구조로 채택되고 있는데, 현재는 원통내부에 원기둥 또는 다른 원통을 첨가함으로써 셀커패시턴스를 향상시키기 위한 커패시터구조가 제안되고 있다.In the three-dimensional stack type capacitor structure, especially the cylindrical structure can be used as an effective capacitor area not only on the outer surface of the cylinder but also on the inner surface, so it is adopted as a structure suitable for 64 Mb-class memory cells or higher density memory cells. A capacitor structure has been proposed for improving cell capacitance by adding a cylinder or other cylinder inside the cylinder.

상술한 종래 방법에 의한 반도체 메모리장치의 제조방법에 따르면, 원통내부에 또다른 원통이 첨가된 스토리지전극을 형성할 수 있어 셀커패시턴스를 향상시킬 수는 있으나. 다음과 같은 문제점들이 있다.According to the manufacturing method of the semiconductor memory device according to the conventional method described above, it is possible to form a storage electrode to which another cylinder is added to the inside of the cylinder, thereby improving cell capacitance. There are the following problems.

첫째, 기동전극(제1도에서 설명) 형성을 위해 콘택홀을 형성한 후 제1의 다결정실리콘을 채울 때, 상기 제1의 다결정실리콘이 채워지는 상태에 따라 그 상부에 형성되는 원동의 모양이 좌우되기 때문에 콘택홀 부분에만 상기 제1의 다결정실리콘을 정확하게 채우는 것이 중요한 데, 그 공정이 매우 어렵다.First, when the first polycrystalline silicon is filled after the contact hole is formed to form the starting electrode (described in FIG. 1), the shape of the circular motion formed on the upper portion of the first polycrystalline silicon is changed. It is important to precisely fill the first polysilicon only in the contact hole portion, because the process is very difficult.

둘째, 우물(제1도에서 설명)을 형성하기 위해 상기 제2의 이산화실리콘층을 이방성식각하는 공정시, 상기 우물은 그 측벽이 경사지도록 형성되기가 쉬운데, 이는 플레이트전극 형성시 셀 사이에 구멍(void)을 형성하는 메모리장치의 전기적 특성을 저하시킨다.Second, in the process of anisotropically etching the second silicon dioxide layer to form a well (described in FIG. 1), the well is easily formed such that its sidewalls are inclined, which is a hole between cells in forming a plate electrode. Deteriorates the electrical characteristics of the memory device forming the void.

세째, 제4의 이산화실리콘을 에치백할 때(제3도에서 설명), 그 정도를 조절하기가 힘들기 때문에 균일한 셀커패시턴스 확보가 어렵다.Third, when etching back the fourth silicon dioxide (described in FIG. 3), it is difficult to control the degree, so it is difficult to secure uniform cell capacitance.

네째, 제1의 다결정실리콘층을 형성한 후 제2의 다결정실리콘층을 형성할 때(제2도에서 설명), 상기 제1의 다결정실리콘층 표면에 얇은 자연산화막이 생성되어 메모리장치의 전기적 특성을 저하시킨다.Fourth, when the second polysilicon layer is formed after the first polysilicon layer is formed (described in FIG. 2), a thin natural oxide film is formed on the surface of the first polysilicon layer, thereby providing electrical characteristics of the memory device. Lowers.

다섯째, 원통전극을 끝부분이 뾰족하게 형성되므로 누설전류가 생길 가능성이 많다.Fifth, since the end of the cylindrical electrode is sharply formed, there is a high possibility of leakage current.

따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 셀커패시턴스를 증가시켜 고집적 메모리장치에 유용하게 적용할 수 있는 반도체 메모리장치를 제공함에 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor memory device that can be usefully applied to a highly integrated memory device by increasing cell capacitance.

본 발명의 다른 목적은 상기 반도체 메모리장치를 제조하기 위한 그 적합한 제조방법을 제공함에 있다.Another object of the present invention is to provide a suitable manufacturing method for manufacturing the semiconductor memory device.

상기 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명에 의한 반도체 메모리장치의 제조방법은, 반도체기판 위에 제1 절연층을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제1 절연층을 식각하는 상기 반도체기판을 노출시키는 제1 콘택홀을 형성하는 공정; 상기 절연층 상에 상기 제1콘택홀 내의 상기 반도체 기판에 접촉하는 제1 도전층을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제1도전층 상에 제2 절연층을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제2절연층 및 상기 제1도전층을 순차적으로 패터닝하여 제2절연층 패턴 및 제1도전층 패턴을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제2절연층 패턴 상에 제2도전층을 형성하고 에치 백하여 상기 제2절연층 패턴의 측벽에 상기 제1도전층 패턴에 연결되는 제2도전층 패턴을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제2절연층 패턴을 선택적으로 제거하고, 결과물 상에 상기 제2도전층 패턴을 덮는 두께로 제3 절연층을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제3절연층을 패터닝하여 상기 제1 도전층의 일부를 노출시키는 제2 콘택홀을 가지는 제3절연층 패턴을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제3절연층 패턴 상에 상기 제2콘택홀 내에 노출되는 상기 제1도전층 패턴에 연결되며 상기 제2콘택홀의 형상에 의해서 상기 제2콘택홀 내에 형성되는 부분이 실리던 형태를 이루는 제3도전층을 형성하는 공정; 상기 제3절연층 패턴을 노출하도록 상기 제3도전층의 상기 제3절연층 패턴 상을 덮는 부분을 선택적으로 식각하여 제3도전층 패턴을 형성하는 공정; 및 상기 제3절연층 패턴을 선택적으로 제거하여 상기 제3도전층 패턴, 상기 제2도전층 패턴 및 상기 제1도전층 패턴으로 이루어지는 커패시터의 스토리지 노드를 노출하는 공정을 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다.A method of manufacturing a semiconductor memory device according to the present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of forming a first insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate; Forming a first contact hole exposing the semiconductor substrate to etch the first insulating layer; Forming a first conductive layer in contact with the semiconductor substrate in the first contact hole on the insulating layer; Forming a second insulating layer on the first conductive layer; Forming a second insulating layer pattern and a first conductive layer pattern by sequentially patterning the second insulating layer and the first conductive layer; Forming a second conductive layer on the second insulating layer pattern and etching back to form a second conductive layer pattern connected to the first conductive layer pattern on sidewalls of the second insulating layer pattern; Selectively removing the second insulating layer pattern, and forming a third insulating layer on the resultant to have a thickness covering the second conductive layer pattern; Patterning the third insulating layer to form a third insulating layer pattern having a second contact hole exposing a portion of the first conductive layer; A third portion connected to the first conductive layer pattern exposed in the second contact hole on the third insulating layer pattern and having a portion formed in the second contact hole due to the shape of the second contact hole; Forming a conductive layer; Forming a third conductive layer pattern by selectively etching a portion of the third conductive layer covering the third insulating layer pattern so as to expose the third insulating layer pattern; And selectively removing the third insulating layer pattern to expose a storage node of a capacitor including the third conductive layer pattern, the second conductive layer pattern, and the first conductive layer pattern.
