Description

Etchant compositions and methods of manufacturing semiconductor device using the same}

The technical idea of the present invention relates to an etching composition and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the same, and more particularly, to an etching composition for etching a nitride layer and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the same.

In an integrated circuit (semiconductor) device, an oxide film such as a silicon oxide film (SiO2) and a nitride film such as a silicon nitride film (SiNx) are typical insulating films, respectively, or have a structure in which one or more layers are alternately stacked. These oxide films and nitride films are also used as hard masks for forming conductive patterns such as metal wiring.

In a wet etching process for removing the nitride layer, an etching composition in which phosphoric acid and deionized water are mixed is generally used. At this time, the deionized water is added to reduce the etch rate and to prevent the change of the etch selectivity for the oxide film, but when the nitride film is removed through the wet etching process, a defect occurs due to a slight change in the amount of deionized water, and the nitride film for the oxide film There was a problem in that there was a limitation in etching the nitride film to a required level due to the decrease in the etch selectivity of the etchant.

Recently, with the multifunctionalization of information and communication devices, there is a demand for high capacity and high integration of semiconductor devices including memory devices. As the size of a memory cell for high integration is reduced, operation circuits and wiring structures included in the memory device for operation and electrical connection of the memory device are also becoming more complex. In the manufacturing process of a highly downscaled semiconductor device, oxide and nitride layers, which are typical insulating layers, may be used alone or alternately stacked. In order to construct it, a selective etching process of the nitride film having a pattern of various shapes may be required. In particular, there is a need for an etching composition capable of securing a sufficient etching selectivity of the nitride film to the oxide film without causing problems such as unnecessary particle generation or unwanted abnormal growth of by-products on the surface of the oxide film during the etching process of the nitride film.

In addition, each of the substituents exemplified above may be substituted or unsubstituted. For example, a methyl amino group can be interpreted as an amino group.

Hereinafter, before describing the first aspect of the present invention, the concept of the etching composition will be described.

The etching composition may be used to etch the silicon-containing material. For example, the etching composition may be used to etch a silicon nitride layer or a silicon oxide layer that is an insulating layer. The etching of the silicon oxide layer using the etching composition may be performed as shown in Scheme 1 below. The etching of the silicon oxide film using the silicone composition may proceed as shown in Reaction Equation 2 below. However, in the etching process using the etching composition, the etch rate of the silicon nitride layer as the first insulating layer may be greater than the etch rate of the silicon oxide layer as the second insulating layer. In this specification, the etching of the silicon nitride layer may mean that the silicon nitride is removed, and the etching of the silicon oxide layer may mean that the silicon oxide is removed.

[Scheme 1]

3Si ₃ N ₄ + 4H ₃ PO ₄ + 27H ₂ O → 4(NH ₄ )3PO ₄ + 9SiO ₂ H ₂ O

[Scheme 2]

SiO ₂ +4H ⁺ + 4e ^- → Si + 2H ₂ O

Referring to Scheme 1, phosphoric acid may react with silicon nitride to remove silicon nitride. In this case, the composition ratio of phosphoric acid as an inorganic acid may be 70 to 99 parts by weight. In the present specification, the composition ratio means a composition ratio with respect to the composition. When phosphoric acid is less than 70 parts by weight of the etching composition, it may be difficult to easily remove the silicon nitride layer. Alternatively, in the etching process, etching byproducts may be formed. In one embodiment of the present invention, the composition ratio of phosphoric acid may mean the composition ratio of 85% phosphoric acid aqueous solution. That is, when the composition ratio of phosphoric acid is 65%, it may mean that 85% phosphoric acid aqueous solution is 65% of the etching composition.

Referring to Scheme 2, phosphoric acid may provide hydrogen ions to react with silicon oxide. When the phosphoric acid is greater than 99 parts by weight of the etching composition, the reaction rate between the phosphoric acid and the silicon oxide may increase. Accordingly, in the etching process, it may be difficult for the silicon nitride layer to have a sufficiently high etch selectivity with respect to the silicon oxide layer.

etching composition

Hereinafter, the etching composition according to the first aspect of the present invention will be described in detail.

One aspect of the present invention is

inorganic acids; And it provides an etching composition comprising a silane-based compound of Formula 1:

[Formula 1]

In Formula 1, R ₁ , R ₂ , and R ₃ are each independently hydrogen, halogen, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and 1 to carbon atoms A substituted or unsubstituted alkylamino group having 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted aminoalkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted amino alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy amino group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms is any one selected from the group consisting of, R ₄ , R ₅ , and R ₆ are each independently a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and 1 carbon number A substituted or unsubstituted alkylamino group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted aminoalkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted amino alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms Any one selected from the group consisting of amino groups.

In one embodiment of the present invention, preferably, in Formula 1, R ₁ , R ₂ , and R ₃ are each independently hydrogen, halogen, and a group consisting of a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms. may be any one selected from, R ₄ , R ₅ , and R ₆ are each independently a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and 1 carbon number to 5 may be any one selected from the group consisting of a substituted or unsubstituted amino alkyl group.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the silane-based compound may be specifically represented by the following Chemical Formula 2, but this is merely an example, and the technical spirit of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[Formula 2]

In one embodiment of the present invention, the inorganic acid included in the etching composition allows the etching composition to have an acidic pH (eg, pH 2 to 6) to etch the object to be etched (eg, an insulating film). do.

The inorganic acid is not particularly limited, but may be at least one selected from the group consisting of sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, silicic acid, hydrofluoric acid, boric acid, hydrochloric acid, and perchloric acid. Specifically, the inorganic acid may be phosphoric acid. When phosphoric acid is used as the inorganic acid and the etching target is an oxide film and a nitride film, the etching selectivity of the nitride film to the oxide film may be increased. In addition, when phosphoric acid is used as the inorganic acid, hydrogen ions may be provided in the etching composition to promote etching.

In addition, when the inorganic acid is phosphoric acid, the etching composition of the present invention may further include sulfuric acid as an additive. The sulfuric acid may increase the boiling point of the etching composition including the phosphoric acid as an inorganic acid, thereby helping to etch the nitride layer.

The content of the inorganic acid and the silane compound is not particularly limited, but the etching composition may include 70 to 99 parts by weight of the inorganic acid and 0.01 to 10 parts by weight of the silane compound. Specifically, the etching composition may include 70 to 90 parts by weight of the inorganic acid and 0.5 to 10 parts by weight of the silane-based compound. More specifically, the etching composition may include 75 to 85 parts by weight of the inorganic acid and 1 to 10 parts by weight of the silane-based compound. If the content of the inorganic acid is less than 70 parts by weight, etching (removal) of the nitride film may not be easy or particle generation may be induced.

In addition, when the content of the silane-based compound is less than 0.01 parts by weight, it is difficult to obtain a high etch selectivity with respect to the nitride layer, and when it exceeds 10 parts by weight, it is difficult to increase the effect due to an increase in the content, so economic efficiency may be deteriorated.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the etching composition may further include an ammonium-based compound. The ammonium-based compound may refer to a compound that forms ammonium (NH ⁴⁺ ) in aqueous solution conditions. The ammonium-based compound may include, for example, at least one of ammonia, ammonium chloride, ammonium phosphate, ammonium acetate, ammonium sulfate, ammonium formate, and a metal amine complex salt. The metal amine complex salt may be a metal complex salt including at least one ammonia (NH ₃ ) ligand. When the etching process of the silicon nitride layer is performed for a long time, the concentration of silicon ions may increase. For example, the silicon ion may be formed by SiO ₂ H ₂ O, which is the product of Reaction Formula 1 above. Abnormal growth of the silicon oxide film may occur due to silicon ions. According to embodiments, in the etching process, the ammonium-based compound may be dissociated to form ammonium (NH ⁴⁺ ). Ammonium may react with a precursor of silicon ions (eg, SiO ₂ ) to remove the precursor of silicon ions. Accordingly, abnormal growth of the silicon oxide film can be prevented. The ammonium-based compound may maintain an etching rate according to an etching time constant.

If the ammonium-based compound is less than 0.01 wt% of the etching composition, it may be difficult to prevent abnormal growth of the silicon oxide layer or the etch selectivity of the silicon nitride layer to the silicon oxide layer may change with time. When the ammonium-based compound exceeds 10 wt% of the etching composition, the etching rates of the silicon nitride layer and the silicon oxide layer may change with time. According to an embodiment, the composition ratio of the ammonium-based compound may be 0.01 wt% to 10 wt%.

Also, in one embodiment of the present invention, the etching composition may further include a solvent. Specifically, the solvent may be water or deionized water (DIW). The content of the solvent may be the remaining parts by weight (residual amount) excluding the components based on 70 to 99 parts by weight of the first inorganic acid and 0.01 to 10 parts by weight of the first additive.

In addition, the etching composition of the present invention may further include any commonly known additives to improve etching performance. The additive may be a surfactant, a sequestering agent, or a corrosion inhibitor.

As the etching composition of the present invention as described above selectively further includes an additive and an ammonium-based compound in addition to the inorganic acid and the silane-based compound, the etching selectivity of the nitride layer to the oxide layer may be significantly high. In addition, the etching composition can prevent damage to the film quality of the oxide film or deterioration of electrical properties due to etching of the oxide film during the etching process of the nitride film, and minimize the generation of particles. Accordingly, the etching composition of the present invention may be usefully used in an etching process when manufacturing a semiconductor device.

The tops of the trenches 600 may have greater widths than their bottoms. The trenches 600 may expose the upper surface 100a of the substrate 100 . During the formation of the trenches 600 , the upper surface 100a of the substrate 100 exposed to the trenches 600 by over-etching may be recessed to a predetermined depth. 1 , the trenches 600 may have long axes parallel to the second direction D2 in a plan view.

The gate regions 250 may expose portions of the sidewalls 300c of the vertical structures 300 . The thicknesses of the gate regions 250 may be substantially the same as the thicknesses of the removed sacrificial layers SC. The sacrificial layers SC may be etched by an etching process using an etching composition. The etching process may be a wet etching process.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the etching composition may include an inorganic acid such as phosphoric acid, an ammonium-based compound, and a silane-based compound. Since the sacrificial layers SC include silicon nitride, they may be etched by phosphoric acid as shown in Scheme 1.

In one embodiment of the present invention, for example, an etching composition at 150° C. to 200° C., specifically 155° C. to 170° C. may be supplied on the substrate 100 . Under the temperature condition, phosphoric acid may further etch silicon oxide as well as the sacrificial layers SC. The insulating layers IL may include silicon oxide. In some embodiments, the etching composition may include a silicon-containing compound to prevent/reduce etching of the insulating layers IL by phosphoric acid. For example, in the etching process, oxygen of the silicon-containing compound may be coupled to surfaces of the insulating layers IL to protect the insulating layers IL. Accordingly, during the etching process, the insulating layers IL may exhibit a low etch rate. The oxygen atom of the silicon-containing compound may not interact (eg, hydrogen bond) with the surfaces of the sacrificial layers SC. Accordingly, the etch selectivity of the sacrificial layers SC with respect to the insulating layers IL may be increased. When the silicon-containing compound is unstable, by-products are formed, which can form particles. The by-products and/or particles may cause defects in the manufacturing process of the semiconductor device. For example, byproducts and/or particles may be adsorbed to the insulating layers IL. Since the bonding of the silicon atom and the oxygen atom of the silicon-containing compound is stable, formation of byproducts in the etching process can be prevented. The sacrificial layers SC may be etched to form silicon ions (eg, SiO 2 H 2 O). The ammonium-based compound may remove silicon ions generated while the sacrificial layers SC are etched. Accordingly, abnormal growth of the insulating layers IL by the silicon ions may be prevented/reduced.

After the etching process, a cleaning process and a drying process using ultrapure water or the like may be performed on the substrate 100 .

semiconductor device

The third aspect of the present application is

a structure formed by stacking an insulating film and a sacrificial film; a space portion formed by etching the sacrificial layer with an etching composition in the structure; and a deposition portion formed by depositing a conductive material or an insulating material in the space portion, wherein the etching composition includes: an inorganic acid; And it provides a semiconductor device comprising the silane-based compound of the formula (1).

Although detailed descriptions of parts overlapping with the first and second aspects of the present application are omitted, the descriptions of the first and second aspects of the present application may be equally applied even if the descriptions thereof are omitted in the third aspect.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail so that those of ordinary skill in the art can easily carry out the present invention. However, the present invention may be embodied in several different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein.

manufacturing example. Preparation of etching composition

As a silane-based compound, CAS No. 1371606-96-0 An etching composition was prepared by using the compound of Formula 2, phosphoric acid as an inorganic acid, and ammonium chloride (AC) or ammonium phosphate dibasic acid (AP2) as an ammonium compound. In this case, 85% phosphoric acid aqueous solution was used.

As a comparative example, a composition containing only phosphoric acid as an inorganic acid without including a silane-based compound and an ammonium-based compound was used. The compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples according to the composition are shown in Table 1 below.

experimental example. Etching rate and selectivity measurement

The nitride film and the oxide film were etched at a process temperature of 165 ° C. using the etching compositions prepared in Examples and Comparative Examples, respectively, and the nitride film was etched using an ellipsometer (NANO VIEW, SEMG-1000), which is a thin film thickness measuring device. And the etching rate of the oxide film was measured and shown in Table 2 below. Specifically, the etch rate in Table 2 below is a numerical value calculated by dividing the difference between the film thickness before the etching treatment and the film thickness after the etching treatment of each film by the etching time (minutes) after each film is etched for 300 seconds.

According to Table 2, it can be seen that the etching rate of the nitride layer is significantly higher than the etching rate of the oxide layer in the etching composition of Examples corresponding to the etching composition of the present invention compared to the etching composition of Comparative Example. This point can be seen as supporting that the etching composition of the present invention selectively etches the nitride layer.

In addition, the solution from the silicon oxide film is collected, and when the concentration of silicon ions in the solution becomes 100 ppm, the etching rate before and after filtering is measured (hereinafter referred to as a dummy etching rate), and the results are shown in Table 3 indicated.

According to Table 3 above, looking at the etching rate and the etching selectivity of the silicon oxide film before and after the filter in Comparative Examples and Examples, the difference in the etching rate and the etching selection of the silicon oxide film before and after the filter in Comparative Examples and Example 4 There was a difference in rain. However, in Examples 5 and 6, the etch rate and etch selectivity of the silicon oxide film before and after the filter were maintained at the same level. That is, the silicon-oxygen bond of TEOS is broken in the etching composition to generate a large amount of reaction byproducts, and the thickness is increased by adsorption of the generated byproducts to the silicon oxide layer. Afterwards, when the reaction by-products are removed by the filter process, the actual thickness of the etched silicon oxide layer can be measured, so that the etching rate is increased compared to before the filter.

On the other hand, in Examples 5 and 6, which further included an ammonium compound, it can be seen that the oxide film etch rate is maintained without increasing even after the filter, and it can be seen that the nitride film selectivity is still higher than that of Comparative Example. This means that reaction by-products generated during the etching of the silicon nitride layer are converted into water-soluble compounds by combining with ammonium ions included in the etching composition, and thus the phenomenon of precipitation of reaction by-products is minimized.
