Description

반도체 소자의 금속 배선 형성 방법Metal wiring formation method of semiconductor device

본 발명은 반도체 소자의 금속 배선 형성 방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 비아 콘택홀과 트랜치를 갖는 듀얼 다마신 패턴(dual damascene pattern) 형성 공정을 개선하여, 금속 배선 형성 공정의 안정성 확보와 더불어 소자의 신뢰성 및 수율을 향상시킬 수 있는 반도체 소자의 금속 배선 형성 방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for forming a metal wiring of a semiconductor device, and in particular, to improve a process of forming a dual damascene pattern having a via contact hole and a trench, thereby ensuring the stability of the metal wiring forming process and the reliability of the device. A metal wiring formation method of a semiconductor element which can improve a yield.

일반적으로, 반도체 소자 형성 공정중 금속 배선은 구리, 알루미늄, 텅스텐 등과 같은 고전도성 물질을 증착한 후, 포토리소그라피(photolithography) 공정 및 식각 공정에 의해 형성한다. 이 경우 반도체 소자가 고집적화 및 소형화되어 감에 따라 포토레지스트의 애스팩트 비(aspect ratio)가 높아져 포토레지스트 패턴이 쓰러지거나, 건식 식각 후에 부식(corrosion) 발생 가능성 등의 문제점이 있다. 또한, 금속 배선 재료가 바뀔 때마다 새로운 식각 레시피를 개발해야 하는 번거로움이 있고, 특히 구리는 휘발성이 낮은 화합물을 형성하므로 건식 식각이 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 최근 개발된 방법으로 싱글 다마신(single damascene) 방법을 개선한 듀얼 다마신 방법이 있다. 듀얼 다마신 방법은 제 1 절연막 및 식각 정지층을 형성한 후에 포토리소그라피 공정 및 식각 공정으로 식각 정지층의 일부분을 식각 하여 비아 콘택홀이 형성될 부분을 정의(define)하고, 그 상부에 제 2 절연막을 형성한 후, 다시 포토리소그라피 공정 및 식각 공정으로 트랜치 및 비아 콘택홀을 형성하여 듀얼 다마신 패턴을 형성한다. 이후 듀얼 다마신을 포함한 제 2 절연막 상에 금속 증착 및 화학 기계적 연마 공정으로 금속층을 연마하여 금속 배선을 형성한다. 상기한 듀얼 다마신 방법은 포토리소그라피 공정과 식각 공정을 2번 실시하여 듀얼 다마신 패턴을 형성하는데, 이때 포토레지스트 패턴의 애스팩트 비가 높을 경우 포토레지스트 패턴이 쓰러지는 문제가 존재하고, 더욱이 상하부 절연막이 모두 산화물(oxide) 계통이므로 건식 식각시 정확한 식각 정지점을 조절하기 어려워 금속 배선의 두께를 정확히 조절할 수 없어, 결국 금속 배선 형성 공정의 안정성이 부족하고 소자의 신뢰성 및 수율 저하를 초래하는 문제가 있다.In general, the metal wiring during the semiconductor device forming process is formed by depositing a highly conductive material such as copper, aluminum, tungsten, etc., by a photolithography process and an etching process. In this case, as the semiconductor devices are highly integrated and miniaturized, the aspect ratio of the photoresist increases, resulting in the photoresist pattern falling down or the possibility of corrosion after dry etching. In addition, it is cumbersome to develop a new etching recipe every time the metal wiring material is changed, and in particular, dry etching is difficult because copper forms a compound having low volatility. To solve this problem, a recently developed method is the dual damascene method, which is an improvement of the single damascene method. In the dual damascene method, after forming the first insulating layer and the etch stop layer, a portion of the etch stop layer is etched by the photolithography process and the etch process to define a portion where the via contact hole is to be formed, and a second portion thereon. After the insulating film is formed, trenches and via contact holes are again formed by a photolithography process and an etching process to form a dual damascene pattern. Thereafter, the metal layer is polished on the second insulating film including dual damascene by metal deposition and chemical mechanical polishing to form a metal wiring. In the dual damascene method, a dual damascene pattern is formed by performing a photolithography process and an etching process twice. In this case, when the aspect ratio of the photoresist pattern is high, there is a problem that the photoresist pattern collapses. Since all are oxides, it is difficult to precisely control the etch stop point during dry etching, so that the thickness of the metal wiring cannot be precisely controlled, resulting in a lack of stability of the metal wiring forming process and a decrease in reliability and yield of devices. .

따라서, 본 발명은 비아 콘택홀과 트랜치를 갖는 듀얼 다마신 패턴 형성 공정을 개선하여 상기한 문제점을 해결하므로써, 금속 배선 형성 공정의 안정성 확보와 더불어 소자의 신뢰성 및 수율을 향상시킬 수 있는 반도체 소자의 금속 배선 형성 방법을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention solves the above problems by improving the dual damascene pattern forming process having via contact holes and trenches, thereby ensuring the stability of the metal wiring forming process and improving the reliability and yield of the device. It is an object to provide a method for forming metal wiring.
