Description

반도체소자의 제조방법Manufacturing method of semiconductor device

본 발명은 반도체소자의 제조방법에 관한 것으로서, 특히 주변회로영역 상의 질화막이 적층되어 있는 게이트 전극에서 콘택으로 예정되는 부분의 질화막을 먼저 제거한 다음, 반도체기판의 셀영역 및 주변회로영역에서 콘택공정을 실시함으로써 식각공정시 상기 셀영역의 활성영역이 손상되는 것을 방지하여 소자의 특성 및 신뢰성이 저하되는 것을 방지하는 반도체소자의 제조방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device. In particular, a nitride film of a portion intended to be contacted is first removed from a gate electrode on which a nitride film is stacked on a peripheral circuit region, and then a contact process is performed in a cell region and a peripheral circuit region of a semiconductor substrate. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device by preventing the active area of the cell region from being damaged during the etching process, thereby preventing deterioration of characteristics and reliability of the device.

최근의 반도체장치의 고집적화 추세는 미세 패턴 형성 기술의 발전에 큰 영향을 받고 있으며, 반도체장치의 제조공정 중에서 식각 또는 이온주입 공정 등의 마스크로 매우 폭 넓게 사용되는 감광막 패턴의 미세화가 필수 요건이다.The recent trend of high integration of semiconductor devices has been greatly influenced by the development of fine pattern formation technology, and the miniaturization of photoresist patterns, which are widely used as masks such as etching or ion implantation processes, is essential in the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices.

상기 감광막 패턴의 분해능(R)은 축소노광장치의 광원의 파장(λ) 및 공정 변수(k)에 비례하고, 노광 장치의 렌즈 구경(numerical aperture : NA, 개구수)에 반비례한다.The resolution R of the photoresist pattern is proportional to the wavelength λ of the light source of the reduction exposure apparatus and the process variable k, and inversely proportional to the numerical aperture NA of the exposure apparatus.

[ R = k*λ/NA, R=해상도, λ=광원의 파장, NA=개구수][R = k * λ / NA, R = resolution, λ = wavelength of light source, NA = number of apertures]

여기서, 상기 축소노광장치의 광분해능을 향상시키기 위하여 광원의 파장을 감소시키게 되며, 예를 들어 파장이 436 및 365nm인 G-라인 및 i-라인 축소노광장치는 공정 분해능이 각각 약 0.7, 0.5㎛ 정도가 한계이고, 0.5㎛이하의 미세 패턴을 형성하기 위해 파장이 작은 원자외선(deep ultra violet ; DUV), 예를 들어 파장이 248㎚인 KrF 레이저나 193㎚인 ArF 레이저를 광원으로 사용하는 노광장치를 이용하거나, 공정상의 방법으로는 노광마스크(photo mask)를 위상 반전 마스크(phase shift mask)를 사용하는 방법과, 이미지 콘트라스트를 향상시킬 수 있는 별도의 박막을 웨이퍼 상에 형성하는 씨.이.엘.(contrast enhancement layer, 이하 CEL이라 함)방법이나 두 층의 감광막 사이에 SOG 등의 중간층을 개재시킨 삼층레지스트(tri layer resist, TLR) 방법 또는 감광막의 상측에 선택적으로 실리콘을 주입시키는 실리레이션 방법 등이 개발되어 분해능 한계치를 낮추고 있다.Here, the wavelength of the light source is reduced in order to improve the optical resolution of the reduced exposure apparatus. For example, the G-line and i-line reduced exposure apparatus having wavelengths of 436 and 365 nm have a process resolution of about 0.7 and 0.5 µm, respectively. Exposure using a light source of deep ultra violet (DUV), for example, KrF laser having a wavelength of 248 nm or ArF laser having a wavelength of 193 nm, to form a fine pattern of 0.5 µm or less. As an apparatus or process method, a photo mask is used as a phase shift mask, and a separate thin film is formed on the wafer to improve image contrast. L. (contrast enhancement layer, CEL) method, tri-layer resist (TLR) method in which an intermediate layer such as SOG is interposed between two layers of photoresist, or selectively on top of the photoresist. Silicate methods for injecting cones have been developed to lower the resolution limit.

또한 상하의 도전배선을 연결하는 콘택홀은 소자가 고집적화되어감에 따라 자체의 크기와 주변배선과의 간격이 감소되고, 콘택홀의 지름과 깊이의 비인 에스펙트비(aspect ratio)가 증가한다. 따라서, 다층의 도전배선을 구비하는 고집적 반도체소자에서는 콘택을 형성하기 위하여 제조 공정에서의 마스크들간의 정확하고 엄격한 정렬이 요구되어 공정여유도가 감소된다.In addition, the contact hole connecting the upper and lower conductive wirings has a high integration of the device, and the size of the contact holes decreases, and the distance between the peripheral wirings is reduced, and the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the diameter and the depth of the contact hole, increases. Therefore, in a highly integrated semiconductor device having multiple conductive wirings, accurate and tight alignment between masks in a manufacturing process is required to form a contact, thereby reducing process margin.

이러한 콘택홀은 간격유지를 위하여 마스크 정렬시 오배열의 여유(misalignment tolerance), 노광공정시의 렌즈 왜곡(lens distortion), 마스크 제작 및 사진식각 공정시의 임계크기 변화(critical dimension variation), 마스크간의 정합(registration) 등과 같은 요인들을 고려하여 마스크를 형성한다.These contact holes have misalignment tolerance when aligning the mask, lens distortion during the exposure process, critical dimension variation during the mask fabrication and photolithography process, and between masks to maintain the spacing. The mask is formed by considering factors such as registration.

그리고, 콘택홀 형성시 리소그래피(lithography)공정의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 자기 정렬 방법으로 콘택홀을 형성하는 자기정렬콘택(self aligned contact, 이하 SAC 라 함)기술이 개발되었다.In order to overcome the limitations of the lithography process in forming the contact holes, a self aligned contact (SAC) technology for forming contact holes by a self alignment method has been developed.

상기 SAC 방법은 식각장벽층으로 사용하는 물질에 따라 다결정실리콘층이나 질화막 또는 산화질화막 등을 사용하는 것으로 나눌 수 있으며, 가장 유망한 것으로 질화막을 식각방어막으로 사용하는 방법이 있다.The SAC method may be divided into a polysilicon layer, a nitride film, or an oxynitride film according to the material used as the etch barrier layer, and the most promising method is to use a nitride film as an etch barrier.

도시되어 있지는 않으나, 종래 반도체소자의 SAC 제조방법에 관하여 살펴보면 다음과 같다.Although not shown, the SAC manufacturing method of the conventional semiconductor device will be described as follows.

먼저, 반도체기판 상에 소정의 하부구조물, 예를 들어 소자분리 절연막과 게이트 절연막, 마스크 산화막 패턴과 중첩되어 있는 게이트 전극 및 소오스/드레인영역 등의 모스 전계효과 트랜지스터(MOS field effect transistor : 이하 MOS FET 라 함) 등을 형성한 후, 상기 구조의 전표면에 식각방지막과 산화막 재질의 층간절연막을 순차적으로 형성한다.First, a MOS field effect transistor (MOS FET) such as a gate electrode and a source / drain region overlapping a predetermined substructure, for example, a device isolation insulating film, a gate insulating film, and a mask oxide film pattern on a semiconductor substrate. And the like, and then sequentially form an etch stop film and an interlayer insulating film made of an oxide film on the entire surface of the structure.

그 다음, 상기 반도체기판에서 저장전극이나 비트라인 등의 콘택으로 예정되어 있는 부분 상의 층간절연막을 노출시키는 감광막 패턴을 형성한 후, 상기 감광막 패턴에 의해 노출되어 있는 층간절연막을 건식식각하여 식각방지막을 노출시키고, 다시 식각방지막을 식각하여 콘택홀을 형성한다.Next, a photoresist pattern is formed on the semiconductor substrate to expose an interlayer insulating film on a portion of the semiconductor substrate, which is intended to be a contact such as a storage electrode or a bit line. Then, the interlayer insulating film exposed by the photosensitive film pattern is dry-etched to form an etching prevention film. It exposes and etches an etch stop layer again, and forms a contact hole.

상기에서 식각방지막을 다결정실리콘으로 사용하는 경우, 이는 다시 식각방지막을 전면에 형성하는 방법과 콘택홀이 형성될 지역에만 다결정실리콘층 패드를 형성하는 방법으로 나누어지는데, 이러한 다결정실리콘 SAC 방법은 산화막과는 다른 식각기구를 가지는 다결정실리콘을 식각방지막으로 사용하므로 산화막과는 높은 식각선택비차를 얻을 수 있으나, 전면 증착 방법은 콘택홀간의 절연 신뢰성이 떨어지고, 패드를 형성하는 방법은 콘택 패드와 실리콘기판간의 오정렬 발생시 기판에 손상이 발생되는데, 이를 방지하기 위하여 스페이서 또는 폴리머를 사용하여 콘택 패드를 확장시키는 방법이 제시되고 있으나, 이 역시 0.18㎛ 이하의 디자인룰을 실현할 수 없는 문제점이 있다.When the etch barrier is used as polysilicon, it is divided into a method of forming an etch barrier on the front surface and a method of forming a polysilicon layer pad only in a region where a contact hole is to be formed. Such a polysilicon SAC method is characterized in that Since polycrystalline silicon having different etching mechanisms is used as an etch stopper, it is possible to obtain a high etching selectivity difference from an oxide film. However, in the case of the front deposition method, the insulation reliability between contact holes is inferior, and the pad forming method is used between the contact pad and the silicon substrate. When misalignment occurs, damage occurs to the substrate. In order to prevent this, a method of expanding a contact pad using a spacer or a polymer has been proposed, but this also has a problem in that a design rule of 0.18 μm or less can not be realized.

상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 제시되고있는 것이 질화막을 식각방지막으로 사용하는 SAC방법이다.In order to solve the above problems, the SAC method using a nitride film as an etch stop layer is proposed.

상기와 같이 종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 제조방법은, 소자가 고집적화되어감에 따라 셀영역과 주변회로영역 사이에 단차가 증가하여 콘택을 형성하기 위한 식각공정시 단차가 낮은 주변회로부 상에 형성되어 있는 게이트 전극 상부의 질화막이 식각되지 않아 콘택홀이 완전히 오픈되지 않거나, 상기 질화막이 완전히 식각되는 동안 반도체기판의 접합영역이 손상을 받아 누설전류가 발생하여 공정수율 및 소자동작의 신뢰성을 떨어드리는 문제점이 있다.As described above, the semiconductor device manufacturing method according to the related art is formed on a peripheral circuit portion having a low step during an etching process for forming a contact by increasing a step between a cell region and a peripheral circuit region as the device is highly integrated. The contact hole is not fully opened because the nitride film on the upper gate electrode is not etched, or the junction area of the semiconductor substrate is damaged while the nitride film is completely etched, resulting in a leakage current, thereby lowering process yield and reliability of device operation. There is this.

본 발명은 상기한 종래기술의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 콘택형성시 주변회로영역 상의 질화막을 제거한 다음, 반도체기판의 셀영역 및 주변회로영역에서 콘택으로 예정되는 부분을 노출시키는 콘택홀을 형성함으로써 콘택공정시 식각정지 현상 또는 반도체기판의 손상을 방지하여 후속공정을 용이하게 하고 접합 누설전류의 발생을 방지하여 반도체소자의 특성 및 신뢰성을 향상시키는 반도체소자의 제조방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention, in order to solve the above problems of the prior art, by removing the nitride film on the peripheral circuit area when forming the contact, and then forming a contact hole for exposing the predetermined portion of the contact in the cell region and the peripheral circuit region of the semiconductor substrate It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device which improves the characteristics and reliability of the semiconductor device by preventing an etch stop phenomenon or damage to the semiconductor substrate during the process, thereby facilitating subsequent processes and preventing generation of a junction leakage current.
