연마정지막을 이용한 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 방법Polysilicon Plug Forming Method Using Abrasive Stopping Film

본 발명은 반도체 소자 제조 분야에 관한 것으로, 특히 폴리실리콘 플러그(polysilicon plug) 형성 방법에 관한 것이다.TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor device manufacturing, and more particularly, to a method for forming a polysilicon plug.

일반적으로 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 공정에서는 화학적 기계적 연마(chemical mechanical polishing) 공정이 이용된다. 즉, 반도체 기판 상에 형성된 층간절연막을 사진공정과 식각공정을 실시하여 선택적으로 제거해서 콘택홀을 형성하고, 플러그 형성용 폴리실리콘막을 증착한 다음 화학적 기계적 연마 공정을 실시하여 층간절연막 상에 있는 모든 폴리실리콘막을 제거하여 콘택홀 내에 폴리실리콘 플러그를 형성한다. 이러한, 폴리실리콘막 연마 공정에서는 폴리실리콘막과 산화막의 연마 특성이 유사하기 때문에 산화막 제거용 슬러리(slurry)를 사용하여 평탄화 공정을 실시하는데, 폴리실리콘막과 산화막인 층간절연막간의 연마선택비가 낮음으로 인하여 연마 공정시 층간절연막 상에 있는 폴리실리콘막을 모두 제거하는 동안 콘택홀 내부의 폴리실리콘막이 과도하게 연마되는 디싱(dishing) 현상이 발생할 수 있으며, 또한 폴리실리콘 플러그의 밀도가 높은 지역의 경우 층간절연막이 과도하게 연마되는 침식(erosion)이 일어나게 되어 폴리실리콘의 결정 성장을 불균일하게 하여 전기적 특성을 약화시키는 결과를 낳는다. 또한, 평탄화 공정시 발생하는 연마 불균일도에 따라 층간절연막 상에 잔류하는 폴리실리콘막에 의해 이후 실시되는 열처리 과정에서 실리콘 입자들이 층간절연막 내부로 확산되면서 폴리실리콘 플러그 콘택의 누설 전류를 증가시킨다.In general, a chemical mechanical polishing process is used in the polysilicon plug forming process. That is, the interlayer insulating film formed on the semiconductor substrate is selectively removed by performing a photo process and an etching process to form a contact hole, a polysilicon film for plug formation is deposited, and then a chemical mechanical polishing process is performed to remove all the interlayer insulating film on the interlayer insulating film. The polysilicon film is removed to form a polysilicon plug in the contact hole. In the polysilicon film polishing process, since the polishing properties of the polysilicon film and the oxide film are similar, the planarization process is performed using a slurry for removing the oxide film, and the polishing selectivity between the polysilicon film and the interlayer insulating film as the oxide film is low. As a result, a dishing phenomenon may occur in which the polysilicon film inside the contact hole is excessively polished while removing all of the polysilicon film on the interlayer insulating film during the polishing process. This excessively polished erosion occurs, resulting in non-uniform crystal growth of polysilicon and weakening electrical properties. In addition, according to the polishing non-uniformity generated during the planarization process, the silicon particles are diffused into the interlayer insulating film by the polysilicon film remaining on the interlayer insulating film, thereby increasing the leakage current of the polysilicon plug contact.

이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 화학적 기계적 연마시 폴리실리콘막과 층간절연막간의 연마선택비가 좋은 폴리실리콘 연마용 슬러리를 이용하는 방법이 제시되기도 하였다. 그러나, 이 방법은 폴리실리콘 연마용 슬러리 형성을 위한 별도의 혼합장치 및 공급 장치를 준비해야 하고, 또한 산화막 연마용 슬러리와 혼재하여 사용할 경우 화학적 기계적 연마 공정을 거치는 다른 소자 제조 공정에서 원하지 않는 오염 입자(particle)가 발생하게 된다.In order to solve this problem, a method of using a polysilicon polishing slurry having a good polishing selectivity between the polysilicon film and the interlayer insulating film during chemical mechanical polishing has been proposed. However, this method requires the preparation of a separate mixing device and a supply device for forming a polysilicon polishing slurry, and also when used in combination with an oxide polishing slurry, unwanted contaminant particles in other device fabrication processes undergoing a chemical mechanical polishing process. Particles are generated.

도1 내지 도3을 참조하여 종래 기술에 따른 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 방법의 문제점을 보다 상세히 설명한다.Referring to Figures 1 to 3 will be described in more detail the problem of the polysilicon plug forming method according to the prior art.

도1은 워드라인(11) 등의 형성이 완료된 반도체 기판(10) 상에 층간절연막(11)을 형성하고, 사진 공정과 식각 공정을 통해 층간절연막(11)을 선택적으로 식각하여 반도체 기판(10)을 노출시키는 콘택홀(13)을 형성한 다음, 플러그 형성을 위한 폴리실리콘막(14)을 전체 구조 상에 형성한 상태를 보이고 있다.1 shows an interlayer insulating film 11 formed on a semiconductor substrate 10 on which word lines 11 and the like are formed, and selectively etches the interlayer insulating film 11 through a photo process and an etching process. ), And then the polysilicon film 14 for plug formation is formed on the entire structure.

이어서, 산화막 연마용 슬러리를 이용하여 층간절연막(12)이 노출될 때까지 화학적 기계적 연마 공정을 실시해서, 층간절연막(12) 상에 폴리실리콘막(14)이 잔류되지 않도록 한다.Subsequently, the chemical mechanical polishing process is performed using the oxide film polishing slurry until the interlayer insulating film 12 is exposed to prevent the polysilicon film 14 from remaining on the interlayer insulating film 12.

이때, 산화막 연마용 슬러리를 사용한 연마 공정시 연마대상막인 폴리실리콘막(14)과 산화막으로 형성되는 층간절연막(12)간의 연마 선택비가 그리 크지 않아서 도2에 도시한 바와 같이 평탄화 공정시 층간절연막(12) 상에 있는 폴리실리콘막(14)을 모두 제거하는 동안 콘택홀(13) 내부의 폴리실리콘막(14)이 과도하게 연마되는 디싱 현상이 발생할 수 있으며, 폴리실리콘 플러그의 밀도가 높은 지역의 경우는 도3에 도시한 바와 같이 층간절연막이 과도하게 연마되는 침식이 일어나게 된다. 이에 따라, 콘택홀 내에 형성된 폴리실리콘 플러그간의 절연이 효과적으로 이루어지지 못하거나, 화학적 기계적 평탄화 공정시 발생하게 되는 연마 불균일에 의하여 층간절연막 상에 잔류되는 폴리실리콘막은 이후 실시되는 열처리 공정에서 실리콘 입자들이 층간절연막 내부로 확산되면서 폴리실리콘 플러그 콘택의 누설 전류를 증가시킨다.At this time, the polishing selectivity between the polysilicon film 14, which is the film to be polished, and the interlayer insulating film 12 formed of the oxide film during the polishing process using the oxide film polishing slurry was not so large, as shown in FIG. 2. During the removal of all of the polysilicon film 14 on the (12), dishing phenomenon may occur, in which the polysilicon film 14 inside the contact hole 13 is excessively polished, and a region having a high density of the polysilicon plug may occur. In this case, as shown in Fig. 3, erosion of the interlayer insulating film is excessively polished occurs. Accordingly, the polysilicon film remaining on the interlayer insulating film may not be effectively insulated between the polysilicon plugs formed in the contact hole or the polishing nonuniformity generated during the chemical mechanical planarization process. Diffusion into the insulating film increases the leakage current of the polysilicon plug contacts.

상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출된 본 발명은 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 과정에서 실시되는 화학적 기계적 연마를 보다 정확하게 조절할 수 있는, 연마정지막을 이용한 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention devised to solve the above problems is an object of the present invention to provide a polysilicon plug forming method using a polishing stop film that can more accurately control the chemical mechanical polishing carried out in the polysilicon plug forming process.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 반도체 기판 상에 형성된 층간절연막을 형성하는 단계; 상기 층간절연막 상에 연마정지막을 형성하는 단계; 상기 연마정지막 및 상기 층간절연막을 선택적으로 식각하여 콘택홀을 형성하는 단계; 상기 콘택홀이 완료된 전체 구조 상에 폴리실리콘막을 형성하는 단계; 및 상기 폴리실리콘막을 화학적 기계적 연마(chemical mechanical polishing)하여 폴리실리콘 플러그를 형성하는 단계를 포함하고, 상기 연마정지막은 상기 화학적기계적연마 공정시 사용하는 연마제보다 경도가 큰 TiN 또는 TiAIN으로 형성하는 것을 특징으로 하는 반도체 소자의 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 방법을 제공한다.The present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of forming an interlayer insulating film formed on a semiconductor substrate; Forming a polishing stop film on the interlayer insulating film; Selectively etching the polishing stop layer and the interlayer insulating layer to form a contact hole; Forming a polysilicon film on the entire structure of the contact hole; And forming a polysilicon plug by chemical mechanical polishing of the polysilicon film, wherein the polishing stop film is formed of TiN or TiAIN having a hardness greater than that of the abrasive used in the chemical mechanical polishing process. A method for forming a polysilicon plug of a semiconductor device is provided.

본 발명은 층간절연막 상에 TiN 또는 A1TiN 등으로 연마정지막을 미리 증착하고, 연마정지막 및 층간절연막을 선택적으로 식각하여 콘택홀을 형성한 다음, 플러그 형성을 위한 폴리실리콘막을 형성하고, 연마정지막이 노출될 때까지 폴리실리콘막을 화학적 기계적 연마하는데 그 특징이 있다. 이에 따라. 웨이퍼의 평탄도를 월등히 개선시킬 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 종래에 사용되던 산화막 연마용 슬러리만으로도 연마 선택비를 뛰어나게 개선시킬 수 있고, 전, 후속 공정 여유도를 확보할 수 있다.According to the present invention, a polishing stop film is deposited on the interlayer insulating film with TiN or A1TiN or the like in advance, and the contact hole is formed by selectively etching the polishing stop film and the interlayer insulating film, and then a polysilicon film for plug formation is formed. It is characterized by chemical mechanical polishing of the polysilicon film until it is exposed. Accordingly. Not only can the flatness of the wafer be significantly improved, but also the polishing slurry used in the related art can be excellently improved in polishing selection ratio, and the pre and subsequent process margin can be secured.

본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 방법을 도4를 참조하여 보다 상세히 설명한다.A method of forming a polysilicon plug according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 4.

도4에 도시한 바와 같이, 워드라인(도시하지 않음) 등의 형성이 완료된 반도체 기판(20) 상에 2000 Å 내지 10,000 Å 두께의 층간절연막(21)을 형성하고, 화학적 기계적 연마공정으로 1000 Å 내지 7000 Å 두께의 층간절연막(21)을 연마하여 평탄화시킨다. 이때, 연마제로는 실리카(SiO2), 세리아(CeO2), 알루미나(A12O3) 등으로 구성된 슬러리를 사용한다.As shown in Fig. 4, an interlayer insulating film 21 having a thickness of 2000 Å to 10,000 Å is formed on the semiconductor substrate 20 on which word lines (not shown) and the like have been formed, and then 1000 Å by a chemical mechanical polishing process. The interlayer insulating film 21 having a thickness of 7000 Å is polished and planarized. In this case, as the abrasive, a slurry composed of silica (SiO 2 ), ceria (CeO 2 ), alumina (A1 2 O 3 ), or the like is used.

이어서, 층간절연막(21) 상에 연마정지막(22)을 형성한다. 이때, 연마정지막(22)은 200 ℃ 내지 1000 ℃ 온도에서 화학기상증착법(chemical vapor deposition) 방법으로 형성된 100 Å 내지 3000 Å 두께의 TiN막일 수도 있다. 또한, 상기 연마정지막(22)은 화학기상증착법으로 형성된 A1TiN막일 수도 있다.Subsequently, the polishing stop film 22 is formed on the interlayer insulating film 21. In this case, the polishing stop film 22 may be a TiN film having a thickness of 100 GPa to 3000 GPa formed by a chemical vapor deposition method at a temperature of 200 ° C to 1000 ° C. In addition, the polishing stop film 22 may be an A1TiN film formed by chemical vapor deposition.

다음으로, 연마정지막(22) 및 층간절연막(21)을 선택적으로 식각하여 그 깊이가 2000 Å 내지 5000 Å인 콘택홀을 형성하고, 콘택홀 형성이 완료된 전체 구조상에 화학기상증착법으로 1000 Å 내지 10,000 Å 두께의 폴리실리콘막(24)을 증착한다.Next, the polishing stop film 22 and the interlayer insulating film 21 are selectively etched to form contact holes having a depth of 2000 to 5000 Å, and 1000 to Å by chemical vapor deposition on the entire structure of the contact hole formation. A 10,000-mm thick polysilicon film 24 is deposited.

이어서, 실리카, 세리아, 알루미나 등으로 구성되며 WT%가 1 WT% 내지 30 WT%이고 수소이온농도가 2 pH 내지 13 pH인 슬러리를 사용하여 1 psi 내지 10 psi의 압력에서 폴리실리콘막(24)을 화학적 기계적 연마한다.Then, the polysilicon film 24 at a pressure of 1 psi to 10 psi using a slurry composed of silica, ceria, alumina, and the like, having a WT% of 1 WT% to 30 WT% and a hydrogen ion concentration of 2 pH to 13 pH. Chemical mechanical polishing.

이후, 연마정지막(22)을 완전히 제거하기 위한 공정을 실시할 수도 있다. 이때, TiN막으로 형성된 연마정지막(22) 제거시 HC1, H2SO4, NH4OH, HNO3, HF 등을 각각 사용하거나 혼합하여 사용한다.Thereafter, a process for completely removing the polishing stop film 22 may be performed. At this time, HC1, H 2 SO 4 , NH 4 OH, HNO 3 , HF, etc. are used or mixed when the polishing stop film 22 formed of the TiN film is removed.

전술한 바와 같이 이루어지는 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 폴리실리콘 플러그 형성 공정에서는, 연마제 보다 경도가 휠씬 큰 TiN 또는 AlTiN을 연마정지막으로 사용한다. 이에 따라 연마정지막과 폴리실리콘막의 연마 선택비가 크기 때문에 폴리실리콘막을 연마하기 위한 전용 슬러리를 사용할 필요가 없을 뿐만 아니라, 폴리실리콘막이 잔류되는 것을 방지하기 위하여 과도연마(over polishing)를 실시하는 경우에도 층간절연막이 손상되는 것을 방지할 수 있어 평탄도를 확보할 수 있으며 공정 여유도를 증가시킬 수 있고 이에 따라 생산성을 향상시킬 수 있다.In the polysilicon plug forming process according to the embodiment of the present invention made as described above, TiN or AlTiN having a much higher hardness than the abrasive is used as the polishing stop film. As a result, the polishing selectivity between the polishing stop film and the polysilicon film is large, so that it is not necessary to use a dedicated slurry for polishing the polysilicon film, and even when overpolishing is performed to prevent the polysilicon film from remaining. It is possible to prevent the interlayer insulating film from being damaged, thereby ensuring flatness, increasing process margins, and thus improving productivity.

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 기술분야에서 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 can be made in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be clear to those of ordinary knowledge.

상기와 같이 이루어지는 본 발명은 층간절연막 상에 연마정지막을 형성하고, 연마정지막 및 층간절연막을 선택적으로 식각하여 콘택홀을 형성한 다음, 폴리실리콘막을 증착하고 화학적 기계적 평탄화 공정을 실시함으로써 웨이퍼의 평탄도를 월등히 개선할 수 있고 폴리실리콘막 전용 슬러리 없이도 연마선택비를 증가시킬 수 있으며, 전,후속 공정 여유도를 증가시킬 수 있어 반도체 소자의 수율 및 생산성을 향상시킬 수 있다.According to the present invention as described above, the polishing stop film is formed on the interlayer insulating film, the etching stop film and the interlayer insulating film are selectively etched to form a contact hole, and then the polysilicon film is deposited and the chemical mechanical planarization process is performed to planarize the wafer.
