본 발명은 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 반도체소자에서 랜딩플러그 스페이서를 이용한 게이트와의 쇼트를 방지할 수 있는 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method of forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a method of forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device capable of preventing a short with a gate using a landing plug spacer in the semiconductor device.

최근 디램 프로세스 테크놀러지는 그 최소 선폭(minimul feature size)이 줄어듦에 따라 셀의 게이트와 게이트사이에 소스/드레인전극을 형성방법이 바 타입의 콘택홀(LPC)을 형성한 후 그 부분에 폴리실리콘을 증착하는 기술이 있다.Recently, DRAM process technology has reduced the minimum feature size, so that the source / drain electrodes are formed between the gate and the gate of the cell to form a bar type contact hole (LPC). There is a deposition technique.

이러한 기존의 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법에 대해 도 1 내지 도 3을 참조하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.A method of forming a landing plug of the conventional semiconductor device will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3 as follows.

도 1은 종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 반도체소자의 레이아웃도이고, 도 2는 종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 단면도로서, 도 1의 Ⅱ-Ⅱ선에 따른 단면도이다.1 is a layout diagram of a semiconductor device for describing a landing plug forming method of a semiconductor device according to the prior art, and FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method for forming a landing plug for a semiconductor device according to the prior art. It is sectional drawing along the -II line.

또한, 도 3은 종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 설명 하기 위한 단면도로서, 도 1의 Ⅲ-Ⅲ선에 따른 단면도이다.3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method of forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the prior art, and is a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III of FIG. 1.

종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법은, 도 1에 도시된 바와 같이, 실리콘기판(11)상에 게이트산화막(13)을 형성한후 그 위에 폴리실리콘층(15), 텅스텐박막(17) 및 하드마스크(19)를 순차적으로 적층한다.In the method of forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the related art, as shown in FIG. 1, after forming a gate oxide film 13 on a silicon substrate 11, a polysilicon layer 15 and a tungsten thin film 17 thereon. ) And the hard mask 19 are sequentially stacked.

그다음, 상기 하드마스크(19), 텅스텐박막(17) 및 폴리실리콘층(15)을 선택적 으로 제거하여 게이트구조(20)를 형성한다.Next, the hard mask 19, the tungsten thin film 17, and the polysilicon layer 15 are selectively removed to form the gate structure 20.

이어서, 상기 게이트구조(20)를 포함한 게이트산화막(13)상에 스페이서용 질화막(21)을 증착한후 그 위에 층간절연막(23)을 두껍게 증착한다.Subsequently, a nitride layer 21 for spacers is deposited on the gate oxide layer 13 including the gate structure 20, and a thick interlayer insulating layer 23 is deposited thereon.

그다음, 랜딩플러그 콘택마스크(미도시)를 상기 층간절연막(23)상에 형성한후 이를 마스크로 상기 층간절연막(23)과 스페이서용 질화막(21) 및 게이트산화막(13) 부분을 선택적으로 제거하여 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(25)을 형성한다.After that, a landing plug contact mask (not shown) is formed on the interlayer insulating layer 23, and then a portion of the interlayer insulating layer 23, the spacer nitride layer 21, and the gate oxide layer 13 are selectively removed using a mask. The landing plug contact hole 25 is formed.

이어서, 상기 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(25)을 포함한 층간절연막(23)상에 랜딩 플러그용 폴리실리콘층(27)을 증착한후 이를 평탄화시켜 랜딩플러그(미도시)를 형성한다.Subsequently, a landing plug polysilicon layer 27 is deposited on the interlayer insulating layer 23 including the landing plug contact hole 25 and then planarized to form a landing plug (not shown).

그러나, 랜딩플러그콘택홀(25)에 폴리실리콘층을 증착하기 전에 계면의 이물질 및 표면 산화막을 제거하기 위한 세정방법으로 BOE등을 사용하는데, 이때, BOE는 표면의 이물질뿐만 아니라 STI 구조의 모우트(moat)부분에 있는 버퍼산화막(라이너산화막)(11b)를 제거시키게 된다.However, before depositing the polysilicon layer in the landing plug contact hole 25, BOE or the like is used as a cleaning method for removing foreign matter and surface oxide film at the interface, wherein the BOE is not only a foreign material on the surface but also a moat of STI structure. The buffer oxide film (liner oxide film) 11b in the moat portion is removed.

도 2의 "A" 및 도 3에서와 같이, 전 세정공정에 의해 STI의 모트부분에 형성된 산화막터널부분에 랜딩플러그용 폴리실리콘 일부가 증착되므로써 게이트전극(20)과의 쇼트가 발생 (즉, 터널이 완전히 게이트에 닿을 경우)하여 불량이 되거나, 터널이 게이트까지 닿지는 않았다 하더라도 후속 열공정 및 패키지 이후에 실시하는 생산 버닝(인위적으로 스트레스를 주어 불량이 될만한 취약한 제품을 걸러 내는 과정)에 의해 불량이 되게 된다.As shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 3, a portion of the polysilicon for landing plug is deposited on the oxide tunnel portion formed in the mote portion of the STI by a pre-cleaning process, so that a short with the gate electrode 20 occurs (that is, If the tunnel is completely in contact with the gate), or if the tunnel is not in contact with the gate, it is produced by subsequent thermal processes and production burning after the package (a process that filters out vulnerable products that are likely to be defective due to artificial stress). It becomes a defect.

결국, 이와 같은 불량이 많을 경우 수율을 떨어 뜨려 경제적인 손실을 유발할 뿐만 아니라 제품의 신뢰성도 떨어 뜨리는 주요 원인이 되고 있다.As a result, a large number of such defects are not only causing economic losses by lowering the yield, but also being a major cause of declining product reliability.

이에 본 발명은 상기 종래기술의 제반 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출한 것으로서, 랜딩플러그 폴리기법을 이용하는 모든 디램셀에서 랜딩플러그와 게이트 간의 원하지 않는 터널에 의한 쇼트 발생을 미리 차단하여 수율 및 신뢰성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems of the prior art, in order to improve the yield and reliability by blocking the occurrence of an unwanted tunnel between the landing plug and the gate in advance in all DRAM cells using the landing plug poly technique. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device.

(실시예)(Example)

이하, 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, a method of forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 4는 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 반도체소자의 레이아웃도이고, 도 5는 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 단면도로서, 도 4의 Ⅴ-Ⅴ선에 따른 단면도이다.4 is a layout diagram of a semiconductor device for describing a method for forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method for forming a landing plug for a semiconductor device according to the present invention. Sectional view along the -V line.

본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법은, 도 5a에 도시된 바와 같이, 실리콘기판(31)상에 게이트산화막으로 사용하기 위한 모트산화막(33)을 형성한후 그 위에 폴리실리콘층(35), 텅스텐박막(37) 및 하드마스크(39)를 순차적으로 적층한다.In the method for forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 5A, a polysilicon layer 35 is formed on a silicon oxide layer 31 after forming a mott oxide layer 33 for use as a gate oxide layer. ), The tungsten thin film 37 and the hard mask 39 are sequentially stacked.

그다음, 상기 하드마스크(39), 텅스텐박막(37) 및 폴리실리콘층(35)을 패터닝하여 게이트(41)를 형성한다.Next, the hard mask 39, the tungsten thin film 37, and the polysilicon layer 35 are patterned to form a gate 41.

이어서, 상기 게이트(41)를 포함한 모트산화막(33)상에 스페이서용 질화막(43)을 증착한후 그 위에 층간절연막(45)을 두껍게 증착한다.Subsequently, a nitride nitride film 43 for spacers is deposited on the mot oxide film 33 including the gate 41, and a thick interlayer insulating film 45 is deposited thereon.

그다음, 랜딩플러그 콘택마스크(미도시)를 상기 층간절연막(45)상에 형성한후 이를 마스크로 상기 층간절연막(45)과 스페이서용 질화막(43) 및 모트산화막 (33)을 식각하여 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(47)을 형성한 후 랜딩플러그 형성용 콘택마스크(미도시)를 제거한다. After that, a landing plug contact mask (not shown) is formed on the interlayer insulating layer 45, and the landing plug contact is etched by etching the interlayer insulating layer 45, the spacer nitride layer 43, and the mot oxide layer 33 using the mask as a mask. After forming the hole 47, the contact plug forming contact mask (not shown) is removed.

이어서, 세정용액(예를들어, BOE 또는 HF)을 이용한 세정공정을 진행하여 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(47) 바닥 측면에 있는 모트산화막(33)부분이 제거되면서 터널부 (47a)가 형성된다. 이때, 상기 랜딩플러그콘택홀(47)은 표면에 실리콘 기판과 트렌치산화막, 그리고 이들 사이의 스트레스를 완충시키기 위하여 형성된 모트산화막(33) 부분이 드러나게 되는데, 이 모트산화막(33) 부분은 BOE(pre cleaning)등에 잘 소실된다. 이로 인해, 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(47)을 폴리실리콘으로 채우기 전에 전 세정공정에 의해 콘택홀 바닥측면에 있는 모트산화막(33) 부분이 딥아웃(dip out)되어 게이트까지 터널부(47a)를 형성하게 된다. 이러한 현상은 랜딩플러그 콘택홀과 게이트 간의 간격이 짧을수록 더욱 잘 발생하고, 제품을 작게하여 넷 다이를 증가시키는데 한계가 되기도 한다.Subsequently, a cleaning process using a cleaning solution (for example, BOE or HF) is performed to remove the mott oxide layer 33 on the bottom side of the landing plug contact hole 47, thereby forming the tunnel portion 47a. In this case, the landing plug contact hole 47 exposes a silicon substrate, a trench oxide film, and a mote oxide film 33 formed on the surface to buffer the stress therebetween, and the mote oxide film 33 is formed of BOE (pre). It is lost well by cleaning). Therefore, before filling the landing plug contact hole 47 with polysilicon, a part of the mote oxide film 33 at the bottom side of the contact hole dips out by a pre-cleaning process to form the tunnel portion 47a to the gate. Done. This phenomenon is more likely to occur with shorter gaps between landing plug contact holes and gates, and may limit the increase in net die by making products smaller.

이어서, 이와 같은 불량을 방지하기 위하여, 상기 랜딩플러그 콘택홀(47)을 포함한 층간절연막(45)상에 50∼150Å정도 두께의 부도체물질인 실리콘 질화막(SiN) 또는 실리콘산화질화막(SiON)(49)을 증착한다. 이때, 실리콘질화막(SiN) 또는 실리콘산화질화막(SiON)(49)의 두께는 일반적으로 얇을수록 좋으며, 그 증착 방식이 CVD 등의 기법이어야만 기 형성된 터널부(47a)에도 잘 증착된다.Subsequently, in order to prevent such a defect, a silicon nitride film (SiN) or a silicon oxynitride film (SiON) 49 is formed on the interlayer insulating film 45 including the landing plug contact hole 47. E). At this time, the thickness of the silicon nitride film (SiN) or the silicon oxynitride film (SiON) 49 is generally thinner, and the better the thickness of the silicon nitride film (SiN) or the silicon oxynitride film (SiON) 49.

그다음, 도 5b에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 실리콘질화막 또는 실리콘산화질화막(49)을 상기 랜딩플러그콘택홀(47)측면에만 남도록 직진성을 갖는 건식 식각을 진행하여 플러그스페이서(49a)를 형성한다. 이때, 상기 터널부(47a)에 채워진 물질은 남게 된다. 또한, 상기 플러그 스페이서(49a) 형성시에 상기 실리콘기판(31)표면이 드러나게 된다. 이렇게 하여 전세정공정에서 생성된 터널부(47a)에 위와 같은 부도체 물질로 채워 넣음으로써 게이트간의 쇼트가 방지된다.Next, as shown in FIG. 5B, the dry etching process is performed such that the silicon nitride film or the silicon oxynitride film 49 remains on the landing plug contact hole 47 side only to form a plug spacer 49a. At this time, the material filled in the tunnel portion 47a remains. In addition, the surface of the silicon substrate 31 is exposed when the plug spacer 49a is formed. In this way, the gate portion is prevented by filling the tunnel portion 47a generated in the pre-cleaning process with the above non-conductive material.

이어서, 도면에는 도시하지 않았지만, 상기 드러난 실리콘기판(31)표면을 포함한 전체 구조의 상면에 랜딩 플러그용 폴리실리콘층(27) 을 증착한후 이를 평탄화시켜 랜딩플러그(미도시)를 형성한다. Subsequently, although not shown in the figure, the landing plug polysilicon layer 27 is deposited on the upper surface of the entire structure including the exposed silicon substrate 31, and then planarized to form a landing plug (not shown).

상기에서 설명한 바와같이, 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 랜딩플러그 형성방법에 의하면, 랜딩플러그 폴리실리콘 기법을 이용하는 모든 디램셀에서 랜딩플러그와 게이트간의 원하지 않는 터널에 의한 쇼트발생을 미리 차단하여 수율 및 신뢰성을 향상시키며, 축소기법을 이용하여 넷다이 증진을 가능하게 하여 막대한 경제적 이익을 향상시킨다.As described above, according to the method for forming a landing plug of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, in all DRAM cells using the landing plug polysilicon technique, a short circuit caused by an unwanted tunnel between the landing plug and the gate is prevented in advance to yield and reliability. It is possible to increase net die by using reduction technique and to increase enormous economic benefits.
