Description
본 발명은 반도체 소자의 게이트 제조방법에 관한 것으로, 보다 구체적으로는, 게이트 산화막 특성을 향상시킨 게이트 제조방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a gate of a semiconductor device, and more particularly to a method for manufacturing a gate having improved gate oxide film characteristics.
반도체의 집적도가 높아짐에 따라 반도체 소자의 게이트 산화막도 계속 박막화되어가고 있다. 그러나 게이트 산화막이 약 30Å 이하에서는 다이렉트 터널링(direct tunneling)이 일어나기 때문에 이러한 게이트 산화막은 반도체에 적용할 수 없다. 그러므로 최근에는 유전율이 높은 실리콘 질화막을 얇은 게이트 산화막위에 적층하여 사용함으로써 반도체의 속도도 높이고, 전기적 두께는 동일하면서도 물리적인 두께는 두껍게 하여 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하고 있다. 다이렉트 터널링은 물리적인 두께에 영향을 받기 때문에 이러한 적층으로 형성되는 구조, 즉 게이트 산화막과 실리콘 질화막이 적층된 구조는 동작시 게이트 전류를 줄이고, 반도체의 신뢰성을 높인다.As the degree of integration of semiconductors increases, the gate oxide films of semiconductor devices continue to become thinner. However, since the direct tunneling occurs when the gate oxide film is about 30 GPa or less, such a gate oxide film cannot be applied to a semiconductor. Therefore, in recent years, the silicon nitride film having a high dielectric constant is laminated on a thin gate oxide film to improve the speed of the semiconductor, and to solve the above problems by increasing the physical thickness but having the same electrical thickness. Since direct tunneling is affected by physical thickness, a structure formed of such a stack, that is, a structure in which a gate oxide film and a silicon nitride film are stacked, reduces gate current during operation and improves reliability of a semiconductor.
도 1은 종래 기술에 따른 반도체 기판상에 적층 게이트 산화막이 형성된 단면도를 도시한 것이다.1 is a cross-sectional view of a stacked gate oxide film formed on a semiconductor substrate according to the related art.
반도체 기판(1)상에 일정 두께의 열산화막(2)을 성장시키고, 상기 열산화막(2) 상부에 실리콘 질화막(3)을 화학증기증착방법으로 증착시킨다. 그런다음 상기 실리콘 질화막(3)이 형성된 반도체 기판(1)을 높은 온도에서 O2, N2, N2O, 또는 NH3의 분위기에서 후속 열처리를 해줌으로써 적층 게이트 산화막을 형성시킨다.A thermal oxide film 2 having a predetermined thickness is grown on the semiconductor substrate 1, and a silicon nitride film 3 is deposited on the thermal oxide film 2 by a chemical vapor deposition method. Thereafter, the semiconductor substrate 1 on which the silicon nitride film 3 is formed is subjected to subsequent heat treatment in an atmosphere of O 2 , N 2 , N 2 O, or NH 3 at a high temperature to form a laminated gate oxide film.
이후, 도시되지는 않았지만, 계속해서 반도체 소자의 게이트 형성과정이 이어진다.Subsequently, although not shown, the gate forming process of the semiconductor device is continued.
그러나 일정 두께의 열산화막(2) 상부에 화학적 증착법으로 증착된 얇은 두께의 실리콘 질화막(3)은 조성적으로 완전한 Si3N4으로 형성되지 못하고 Si의 양이 상대적으로 많아 Si 본딩이 끊어진 상태가 된다. 조성적으로 완전치 못한 Si3N4는그 만큼 트랩 사이트가 많이 존재하기 때문에 게이트나 기판으로부터 주입되는 전자들을 쉽게 트랩하여 누설 전류를 증가시키고, 쉽게 깨지는 특성을 갖게 된다. 또한, 이러한 실리콘 질화막(3)은 실리콘 질화막위를 얇게 산화시키기 위한 후속 O2나 N2O 열처리에서 산소가 실리콘 질화막내의 많은 양의 Si와 결합하여 실리콘 질화막 자체를 실리콘 산화막으로 만들어 버리기 때문에 적층 게이트 산화막의 이점이 없어지게 된다.However, the thin silicon nitride film 3 deposited by chemical vapor deposition on a predetermined thickness of the thermal oxide film 2 is not formed as a complete Si 3 N 4 compositionally , and the Si amount is relatively large so that Si bonding is broken. do. The compositionally incomplete Si 3 N 4 has so many trap sites, it easily traps electrons injected from the gate or the substrate, increasing leakage current and easily breaking. In addition, the silicon nitride film 3 is a stacked gate because oxygen combines with a large amount of Si in the silicon nitride film to make the silicon nitride film itself as a silicon oxide film in a subsequent O 2 or N 2 O heat treatment for thinly oxidizing the silicon nitride film. The advantage of the oxide film is lost.
따라서, 최근에는 NH3분위기에서 열처리를 수행하여 실리콘 질화막에 질소함량을 증가시켜주고 있으나 효과적으로 질소함량을 증가시켜 주지 못하고 있다.Therefore, in recent years, the heat treatment is performed in an NH 3 atmosphere to increase the nitrogen content of the silicon nitride film, but does not effectively increase the nitrogen content.
본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 안출된 것으로, 신뢰성 높은 적층게이트 산화막을 제조함에 있어서 플라즈마법을 이용하여 실리콘 질화막내의 질소함량을 증가시켜, 신뢰성 높은 게이트 산화막을 제조하는 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, to provide a method for producing a highly reliable gate oxide film by increasing the nitrogen content in the silicon nitride film by using a plasma method in producing a highly reliable laminated gate oxide film. There is a purpose.

이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 반도체 소자의 게이트 제조방법에 대한 바람직한 실시예를 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of a method for manufacturing a gate of a semiconductor device of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 2a 및 도 2b는 본 발명의 반도체 소자의 게이트 제조방법을 설명하기 위한 단면도이다.2A and 2B are cross-sectional views illustrating a gate manufacturing method of a semiconductor device of the present invention.
먼저, 도 2a를 참조하면, 소자를 분리하는 필드산화막(12)이 형성된 반도체 기판(11)상에 열산화막, 예컨데, 게이트용 실리콘 산화막(13)을 형성한다. 게이트용 실리콘 산화막(13)은 바람직하게 30Å 두께 이하의 일정두께로 성장시킨다. 그런다음, 게이트용 실리콘 산화막(13) 상부에 실리콘 질화막(14)을 증착하여 적층된 구조를 갖는 게이트 산화막을 형성한다. 여기서, 실리콘 질화막(14)은 화학증착법으로 500 ~ 800℃의 온도범위에서 증착되는데, SiH4가스의 유량을 50 ~ 1000sccm, NH3가스의 유량을 800 ~ 1000sccm의 공정조건으로 하여 바람직하게 20 ~ 60Å의 두께로 증착된다.First, referring to FIG. 2A, a thermal oxide film, for example, a silicon oxide film 13 for a gate, is formed on a semiconductor substrate 11 on which a field oxide film 12 for separating devices is formed. The gate silicon oxide film 13 is preferably grown to a constant thickness of 30 mW or less. Then, a silicon nitride film 14 is deposited on the gate silicon oxide film 13 to form a gate oxide film having a stacked structure. Here, the silicon nitride film 14 is deposited at a temperature range of 500 to 800 ° C. by chemical vapor deposition. The flow rate of SiH 4 gas is 50 to 1000 sccm and the flow rate of NH 3 gas is 800 to 1000 sccm. It is deposited to a thickness of 60 mm 3.
이어서, 실리콘 질화막(14) 내에 질소함량을 높이기 위해 열처리 공정을 수행한다. 상기 열처리는 NH3, N2O, 및 NO 가스중 어느 하나에 의해 수행되며, 900℃ 온도 조건에서 NH3가스 유량이 50 ~ 1000sccm 조건에서 진행된다.Subsequently, a heat treatment process is performed to increase the nitrogen content in the silicon nitride film 14. The heat treatment is performed by any one of NH 3 , N 2 O, and NO gas, the NH 3 gas flow rate is carried out at 50 ~ 1000sccm conditions at 900 ℃ temperature conditions.
그런다음, 도 2b에 도시된 바와같이, 실리콘 질화막(14) 내에 질소함량을 증가시키기 위한 열처리 공정 후, 플라즈마 공정을 이용하여 실리콘 질화막(14) 표면을 질화시키면서 실리콘 질화막(14) 상부에 박막의 산화막(15)을 형성한다. 여기서, 상기 플라즈마 공정은 N2O 및 NO 가스중 어느 하나에 의한 가스 분위기에서 수행되는데, 바람직하게 실리콘 질화막(14)의 데미지를 최소화 할 수 있는 리모트 (Remote) 플라즈마법을 이용하여 N2O 가스 분위기에서 수행된다. 이에따라, 실리콘 질화막(14)은 질화되면서 막 계면에 결합이 끊어져 있던 Si 원자들이 질소와 결합하게 되고 동시에 실리콘 질화막(14) 상부에 박막의 산화막(15)이 형성된다.Then, as shown in Figure 2b, after the heat treatment process for increasing the nitrogen content in the silicon nitride film 14, using a plasma process to nitride the surface of the silicon nitride film 14 while the nitride of the thin film on top 14 An oxide film 15 is formed. Here, the plasma process is performed in a gas atmosphere by any one of N 2 O and NO gas, preferably N 2 O gas by using a remote plasma method that can minimize the damage of the silicon nitride film 14 Is carried out in an atmosphere. As a result, the silicon nitride film 14 is nitrided and Si atoms, which are not bonded at the film interface, are bonded to nitrogen, and at the same time, a thin film oxide film 15 is formed on the silicon nitride film 14.

In addition, the guard ring potential of the remote plasma method applies a potential of -20 to -30 V lower than the plasma potential in order to smooth the energy difference between the floating potential and the plasma potential.
또한, 상기 리모트 플라즈마법은 반응속도를 조절하기 위해 서브 바이어스의 인가 범위를 -50 ~ -100V로 하고, 플라즈마내의 이온화율을 증가시키기 위하여 아르곤 가스를 주입하여 수행하는것을 더 포함한다. 이 때, 상기 아르곤 가스는 유량이 10 ~ 40sccm 범위로 주입되고, 산화온도범위는 200 ~ 500℃에서 진행된다.In addition, the remote plasma method further comprises performing by applying an argon gas to increase the ionization rate in the plasma to the application range of the sub-bias to -50 ~ -100V to control the reaction rate.

이후, 도시되지는 않았지만 박막의 산화막(15) 상부에 게이트용 폴리 실리콘막을 증착한 다음, 패터닝 과정을 통하여 게이트를 형성한다.Subsequently, although not shown, a gate polysilicon film is deposited on the oxide layer 15 of the thin film, and then a gate is formed through a patterning process.
상술한 실시예에서, 본 발명은 실리콘 질화막(14) 증착과 웨이퍼에 영향을 주지 않는 리모트 플라즈마법을 사용하여 실리콘 질화막(14)의 Si3N4의 화학적 조성을 안정화할 수 있고, 또한 실리콘 질화막 증착후, O2, N20 또는 NO 분위기에서박막의 산화막을 형성하기 위한 열처리 공정을 거치지 않기 때문에 실리콘 질화막 자체가 쉽게 산화되지않아 적층된 구조를 갖는 게이트 산화막의 물리적, 전기적 두께를 증가시키지 않고 후속 공정을 진행할 수 있기 때문에 후속 공정이 용이해질 수 있다.In the above-described embodiment, the present invention can stabilize the chemical composition of Si 3 N 4 of the silicon nitride film 14 by using the silicon nitride film 14 deposition and the remote plasma method which does not affect the wafer, and also the silicon nitride film deposition. Thereafter, since the silicon nitride film itself is not easily oxidized because it does not undergo a heat treatment process for forming an oxide film of a thin film in an O 2 , N 2 0 or NO atmosphere, the subsequent increase is made without increasing the physical and electrical thickness of the gate oxide film having a stacked structure. Since the process can proceed, subsequent processes can be facilitated.
이상에서 자세히 설명한 바와같이, 게이트용 실리콘 산화막 상부에 실리콘 증착 후, 웨이퍼에 데미지를 주지않는 리모트(Remote) 플라즈마법을 이용하여 실리콘 질화막 표면을 질화시키면서, 동시에 그 상부에 박막의 산화막을 형성한다. 따라서 종래 실리콘 질화막 상부에 박막의 산화막을 형성하기 위한 후속 열처리를 수행하지 않고 적층된 구조를 갖는 게이트 산화막을 형성함으로써, 실리콘 질화막에 효과적으로 질소의 함량을 높여 줄 수 있고, 후속 공정이 용이해지는 장점이 있다.As described in detail above, after the silicon deposition on the gate silicon oxide film, the surface of the silicon nitride film is nitrided using a remote plasma method that does not damage the wafer, and at the same time, an oxide film of the thin film is formed thereon. Therefore, by forming a gate oxide film having a laminated structure without performing a subsequent heat treatment to form a thin film oxide film on the conventional silicon nitride film, it is possible to effectively increase the nitrogen content in the silicon nitride film, and the subsequent process becomes easy. have.
또한, 실리콘 질화막내에 끊어진 Si 본딩을 질소와 결합시킴으로 트랩 사이트가 감소되고, 적층된 구조를 갖는 게이트 산화막의 신뢰성이 증가함에 따라GOI(Gate Oxide Integrity) 특성이 개선되며, 트랜지스터 특성 향상을 통한 수율 증대의 효과가 있다.In addition, by combining the broken Si bonding in the silicon nitride film with nitrogen, the trap site is reduced, and as the reliability of the gate oxide film having the stacked structure is increased, the gate oxide integrity (GOI) characteristics are improved, and the yield is improved by improving transistor characteristics. Has the effect of.
기타, 본 발명의 요지를 벗어나지 않는 범위내에서 다양하게 변경하여 실시할 수 있다.In addition, it can implement in various changes within the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention.
