Description

반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법Method for forming field oxide film of semiconductor device

본 발명은 필드산화막 형성방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 버즈빅(Bird's Beak)의 발생을 방지할 수 있는 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법에 관한 것이다.Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a field oxide film forming method, and more particularly, to a field oxide film forming method of a semiconductor device capable of preventing occurrence of Bird's Beak.

일반적으로 반도체 소자의 제조 공정에서 소자와 소자를 전기적 및 구조적으로 분리시키기 위하여 필드산화막을 형성한다. 이는 각 소자가 인접한 소자로부터간섭을 받지 않고 독립적으로 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 하기 위한 것이다. 그런데 반도체 소자가 고집적화 됨에 따라 필드영역의 크기가 감소되기 때문에 버즈빅의 발생을 최소화하기 위한 새로운 기술이 요구된다.Generally, a field oxide film is formed in order to electrically and structurally separate elements and elements in a semiconductor device manufacturing process. This is so that each device can function independently without interference from adjacent devices. However, since the size of the field region is reduced as the semiconductor device is highly integrated, a new technique for minimizing the occurrence of buzzbig is required.

종래 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법을 첨부도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.A conventional field oxide film forming method of a semiconductor device will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1A 내지 도 1C는 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 소자의 단면도이다.1A to 1C are cross-sectional views of a device for explaining a field oxide film forming method of a semiconductor device.

도 1A는 실리콘기판상(1)에 패드산화막(2) 및 질화막(3)을 순차적으로 형성한 상태를 도시한다.1A shows a state in which a pad oxide film 2 and a nitride film 3 are sequentially formed on a silicon substrate 1.

도 1B는 질화막(3) 및 패드산화막(2)의 선택된 영역을 순차적으로 식각하여 필드산화막이 형성될 부분에 홈을 형성한 상태를 도시한다.1B shows a state in which a selected region of the nitride film 3 and the pad oxide film 2 is sequentially etched to form a groove in a portion where a field oxide film is to be formed.

도 1C는 산화공정을 실시하여 필드산화막(4)을 형성한 상태를 도시한다.1C shows a state in which the field oxide film 4 is formed by performing the oxidation process.

상기 종래 LOCUS 방식에 의해 형성된 필드산화막(4)은 도 1C의 A에 도시한 바와 같이 버즈빅이 발생된다. 그러나 최근에 소자의 집적도가 증가하면서 버즈빅이 소자의 액티브영역을 감소시키고, 이로 인해 접합 누설전류를 증가시키는 문제가 발생한다.The field oxide film 4 formed by the conventional LOCUS method generates buzz big as shown in A of FIG. 1C. However, recently, as the degree of integration of the device increases, Buzzbig reduces the active area of the device, thereby increasing the junction leakage current.

따라서 본 발명은 질화막을 이용하여 버즈빅의 발생을 억제 함으로써 상기한 문제를 해소할 수 있는 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법을 제공하는데 목적이 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a field oxide film forming method of a semiconductor device which can solve the above-described problem by suppressing the occurrence of burrs by using a nitride film.

상기한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명에 따른 필드 산화막 형성방법은 실리콘기판상에 패드산화막과 폴리실리콘막 및 제 1 질화막을 순차적으로 형성한 후, 상기 제 1 질화막 및 폴리실리콘막의 일부를 순차적으로 식각하여 필드산화막이 형성될 부분에 홈을 형성하는 단계와, 상기 단계로부터 전체 상부면에 제 2 질화막을 형성한 후 상기 홈 저부의 상기 제 2 질화막을 식각하는 단계와, 상기 단계로부터 산화공정에 의해 필드산화막을 형성하는 단계로 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 한다.According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of forming a field oxide film, comprising: sequentially forming a pad oxide film, a polysilicon film, and a first nitride film on a silicon substrate, sequentially etching a part of the first nitride film and a polysilicon film, Forming a groove in a portion where a field oxide film is to be formed; etching the second nitride film in the groove bottom after forming a second nitride film on the entire upper surface from the step; And forming a field oxide film.

도 1A 내지 도 1C는 종래 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 소자의 단면도.1A to 1C are sectional views of a device for explaining a field oxide film forming method of a conventional semiconductor device.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명에 따른 필드산화막 형성방법을 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, a method of forming a field oxide film according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 2A 내지 도 2D는 반도체 소자의 필드산화막 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 소자의 단면도이다.2A to 2D are cross-sectional views of a device for explaining a field oxide film forming method of a semiconductor device.

도 2A는 실리콘기판(11)상에 패드 산화막(12)과 폴리실리콘막(13) 및 제 1 질화막(14)을 순차적으로 형성한 후, 제 1 질화막(14) 및 폴리실리콘막(13)의 선택된 영역을 순차적으로 식각하되 폴리실리콘막(13)의 일부분이 잔류되도록 하여 홈 (B)을 형성한 상태를 도시한다.2A shows a state in which the pad oxide film 12, the polysilicon film 13 and the first nitride film 14 are sequentially formed on the silicon substrate 11 and then the first nitride film 14 and the polysilicon film 13 And the grooves B are formed by sequentially etching the selected regions and leaving a part of the polysilicon film 13 remaining.

도 2B는 실리콘기판(11)의 전체 상부면에 제 2 질화막(15)을 400Å 내지 6008Å의 두께로 형성한 상태를 도시한다.2B shows a state in which the second nitride film 15 is formed on the entire upper surface of the silicon substrate 11 to a thickness of 400 to 6008 Å.

도 2C는 홈(B)저부에 형성된 제 2 질화막(15)만 플라즈마로 식각한 상태를 도시한다.2C shows a state in which only the second nitride film 15 formed on the bottom of the groove B is etched by plasma.

도 2D는 산화공정으로 필드산화막(16)이 형성된 상태를 도시한다. 이때 필드산화막(16)과 제 2 질화막(15)은 서로 결합되지 않는 성질 때문에 필드산화막(16)이 제 2 질화막(15)을 침투하지 못하게 된다.2D shows a state in which the field oxide film 16 is formed by the oxidation process. At this time, the field oxide film 16 and the second nitride film 15 are not bonded to each other, so that the field oxide film 16 can not penetrate the second nitride film 15.

상술한 바와 같이 본 발명에 의하면 필드산화막 형성시 필드산화막이 액티브영역에 침투하지 못하도록 함으로써, 버즈빅의 발생을 억제할 수 있다. 따라서 소자간에 누설전류가 감소되어 소자의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the field oxide film from penetrating into the active region when the field oxide film is formed, thereby suppressing occurrence of buzz vignetting. Therefore, the leakage current between the devices can be reduced and the reliability of the device can be improved.
