Description
200304184 A7 _B7_ 五、發明説明(1 ) 一. 發明所屬之技術領域 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 本發明係關於半導體裝置及其製造技術,特別是關於 有效適用在以強電介質膜構成MISFET(Metal Insulator Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor:金屬絕緣半導體場 效電晶體)電晶體之閘極絕緣膜的一部份之半導體裝置的技 二. 先前技術 作爲使用MIS型電晶體之半導體裝置的閘極絕緣膜材 料,在以二氧化矽之介電常數換算的閘極絕緣膜厚(以下 ,也稱爲氧化膜換算膜厚)爲3nm程度以上的裝置中,一 貫使用二氧化矽(Si02 )膜。 但是,爲了推進裝置的高速化,閘極絕緣膜之薄膜化 向前邁進,該氧化膜換算膜厚一低於3 nm以下,貫穿閘極 絕緣膜而流通之直接穿隧電流可被顯著觀測到之故,由低 消費電力化之觀點而言,閘極洩漏電流大至無法忽視之程 度。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 爲了解決此問題,閘極絕緣膜使用介電常數比二氧化 矽還高之金屬氧化物材料,即使氧化膜換算膜厚爲同等, 藉由使物理膜厚變厚,以想要降低直接穿隧電流之嘗試正 被多數進行著。例如,由 C.H.Lee等在2000年 IEDM Technical Digest之p27所揭露般地,利用Zr02膜,同樣 ,如 Laegu Kang 等在 2000 年 IEDM Technical Digest 之 p35所揭露般地,利用Hf02膜等之途徑被採用。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) A4規格(210X297公釐) 一~ 一 --5 ~ 200304184 A7 ___B7 五、發明説明(2 ) 三·發明內容 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) [發明所欲解決之課題] 在將由金屬氧化物所形成的強電介質膜當成閘極絕緣 膜使用之際,大家都知道要兼顧薄膜化與閘極洩漏電流之 降低、界面特性之確保的問題成爲很重要的課題。另外, 如將構裝於產品放入視野中,爲了降低元件間的特性偏差 ,很淸楚確保閘極絕緣膜之表面的平滑性也成爲極重要的 課題。 閘極絕緣膜由於被要求電荷捕獲率在與矽基板的界面 要少之故,作爲由金屬氧化物所形成之閘極絕緣膜的形成 方法,期望在成膜時對矽基板造成之損傷小的化學氣相沈 積法(CVD法),特別是熱CVD法。但是,依據本發明者 等之檢討,以熱C VD法形成的Ti02膜和Zr02膜,由於成 爲多結晶故,膜表面的平滑性差,很淸楚並不實用。 本發明之目的在於提供:可以提升由金屬氧化物所形 成之閘極絕緣膜之表面的平滑性的技術。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 本發明之其它目的在於提供:可以減低由金屬氧化物 所形成之閘極絕緣膜的洩漏電流的技術。 本發明之其它目的在於提供:可以提升具有由金屬氧 化物所形成之閘極絕緣膜的MISFET之電流驅動能力的技 術。 本發明之其它目的在於提供:可以抑制具有由金屬氧 化物所形成之閘極絕緣膜的MISFET之特性偏差的技術。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) A4規格(210X297公釐) -6- 200304184 A7 B7 五、發明説明(3 ) 本發明之前述及其它目的與新的特徵,由本說明書的 記述及所附圖面理應會變得淸楚。 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) [解決課題用之手段] 爲了解決上述之由金屬氧化物所形成之閘極絕緣膜表 面之平滑性的問題,認爲至少在堆積後的時間點,形成具 有非晶質構造的膜爲有效。 另外,Ti〇2膜和Zr〇2膜等之金屬氧化物,在藉由CVD 法堆積後,膜中很多欠缺氧,絕緣性差之故,需要在堆積 後進行某種之氧化處理以進行改變體質,此係廣爲人知。 因此,經過此改變體質氧化處理工程後,如又能保持非晶 質構造,可以不損及表面的平坦性下而進入下一工程之閘 極的形成之故,可以推測更爲良好。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 另外,即使在經過半導體裝置之製造工程(晶圓製程 )的最終工程後,如閘極絕緣膜也能保持非晶質構造,推 測完成狀態之閘極絕緣膜的平滑性可以更爲提升。但是, 在此情形,在閘極絕緣膜形成後的工程中所加的熱負載受 到限制等,在工程上的限制變多。 實現由金屬氧化物所形成之閘極絕緣膜表面之平滑性 的具體手段,爲發明者等藉由利用對矽基板造成損傷小的 電漿CVD法,以形成具有非晶質構造的Ti〇2膜或者Zr02 膜,可以使閘極絕緣膜表面的平滑性變良好。 四·實施方式 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) A4· ( 210X297公董)~_ 200304184 A7 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 B7______五、發明説明(4 ) [發明之實施形態] 以下,依據圖面詳細說明本發明之實施形態。另外, 在說明實施形態用之全部圖中,對於具有相同機能者賦予 相同之圖號,省略其之重複說明。 (實施形態1 ) 將矽晶圓浸於氟化氫水溶液,以去除表面的自然氧化 膜後,以電漿CVD法堆積Ti02膜。電漿cVD裝置係使用 如第1圖所示般地,在矽晶圓1之附近配置環狀的電極2 及磁鐵3,在將藉由加熱器4而加熱的矽晶圓1電氣地接地 之狀態下,由上部導入來源氣體,而在下部排氣之裝置。 來源氣體係使用使四異丙氧鈦(Ti(i-OC3H7)4)氣化之氣體 與氧氣。堆積條件係使用晶圓溫度300°C與3 75t之2種。 比較例係舉與上述相同,使用來源氣體,以不利用電 漿而使用通常之熱CVD法來形成Ti02膜之習知方法。堆 積條件則使用晶圓溫度3 00t與400°C之2種。此處,在晶 圓溫度300 °C中,堆積速度在每分鐘〇.lnm以下,非常慢, 如使晶圓溫度在300 °C以下,變得更慢。即可以稱晶圓溫度 3 00t係Ti02膜之堆積成爲可能之下限溫度。 在第2圖顯示利用上述之本實施形態方法以及習知方 法,以種種之條件堆積膜厚30nm之Ti02膜,藉由薄膜X 射線繞設而解析膜之構造的結果。 在本實施形態方法所堆積的電漿CVD-Ti〇2膜,爲顯示 結晶T i 0相之峰値微弱出現者,峰値強度微弱,則可說是 麟(210X297公釐) ~~~ - (請先閲讀背面之注意事 ΙΦ ,項再填· 裝-- 寫本頁) .1# 200304184 A7 B7 五、發明説明(5 ) 包含微結晶之非晶質構造。在以下中’將此種於X射線繞 射中沒有顯示明確而高峰値之構造稱爲非晶質。另一方面 ,習知方法所堆積的CVD-Ti02膜,則在晶圓溫度300°C、 3 75 °C之任何一種情形下,強烈出現顯示銳鈦礦相之明確的 峰値,知道完全成爲結晶。 接著,就與藉由薄膜X射線繞射而進行構造解析的試 料相同的試料,以原子間力量顯微鏡(Atomic Force Microscope:AFM)進行測量。以習知方法所製作的熱CVD-Ti02膜之Ra,在晶圓溫度400°C之情形時,非常大成爲 12nm,在3 00°C之情形時,成爲2.5nm之程度。相對於此 ,以本實施形態方法所製作的電漿CVD-Ti02膜之Ra,無 法確認由於晶圓溫度所導致之有意義差,在晶圓溫度300°C 、3 75 °C之任何一種情形,都是〇.8nm,可以抑制在習知方 法的1 /3之程度。倂同薄膜X射線繞射之結果,知道在表 面粗度的降低上,以使用本實施形態方法,將Ti02膜做成 非晶質構造爲有效。 另外,關於Zr02膜之形成,也可以說係相同。Zr〇2膜 例如可以藉由將四第三丁氧基锆(Zr(t-OC4H9)4 )當成來源 氣體使用之CVD法而進行堆積。在利用熱CVD法之情形 ’只能獲得結晶構造之故,無法實現平滑之表面,Ra爲 2.5 nm程度以上。即爲了實現表面平滑之非晶質構造,需要 使用電漿CVD法,此點係與Ti02膜之情形相同。 以本實施形態方法及習知方法所形成的Ti〇2膜,任何 一種都是在堆積後,洩漏電流非常大之故,在以氮氣稀釋 _本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) Λ4規格(210X297公釐) '一 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填· :寫本頁) 經濟部智慧財產^員工消費合作社印製 200304184 A7 ____B7 _ 五、發明説明(6 ) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 爲5%之氧氣環境中,進行600°C、800°C之熱處理,改善體 質成爲洩漏電流變小後,在膜的上部蒸鎪金(Au )電極, 測量電氣電容。堆積條件爲:使用本實施形態方法的電漿 CVD-Ti02膜爲晶圓溫度3 75 °C,使用習知方法之熱CVD-Ti02膜爲300°C。將由電氣電容所求得之氧化膜換換膜厚 對於堆積之膜厚加以描繪,則可以知道膜的介電常數。 另外,包含Ti02膜如在氧化性環境中進行金屬氧化膜 之改善體質處理,在金屬氧化膜與矽基板之界面會成長 Si〇2層,此雖廣爲人知會阻礙氧化膜換算膜厚之降低,此 界面Si02層之成長膜厚同樣可由曲線求得。 在以本實施形態方法所形成的Ti02膜中,於第3 ( a) 圖顯示將氧化膜換換膜厚對於堆積膜厚描繪之結果。另外 ,在以習知方法所形成的Ti02膜中,於第3 ( b )圖顯示進 行同樣的描繪之結果。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 利用本實施形態方法所形成的Ti02膜,在改善體質氧 氣退火爲600 °C之情形,介電常數爲29,成長於界面的 Si〇2層的膜厚爲0.9nm。另外,改善體質氧氣退火爲800°C 之情形,介電常數爲50,成長於界面的Si02層之膜厚爲 1.8nm。另一方面,以習知方法形成之Ti〇2膜,在改善體 質氧氣退火爲600t之情形,介電常數爲49,成長於界面 的Si〇2層的膜厚爲2.1nm。另外,改善體質氧氣退火爲 8〇〇°C之情形,介電常數爲61,成長於界面的Si02層之膜 厚爲 3 . 1 nm 〇 關於這些試料,爲了調查因改善體質退火所導致的構 本紙 ά尺度適用中ΐ 國家 210 X 297ST 一~~~ ~ 一~ -10 200304184 A7 B7 五、發明説明(7 ) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 造變化,將就退火之Ti〇2膜進行薄膜X射線繞射測量之結 果顯示於第4圖。利用本實施形態方法所形成的Ti〇2膜, 如進行60(TC之熱處理,雖出現弱銳鈦礦相之峰値,但是其 強度弱,爲非晶質相與微結晶混合存在之相。在進行800°C 之熱處理的情形,同樣地,雖然銳鈦礦相之峰値變高些, 但是其強度弱,知道結晶化並不完全。另一方面,利用習 知方法所形成之Ti02膜,即使在進行600t之熱處理的情 形、進行800 °C之熱處理的情形,在堆積後,都同樣可以確 認強烈銳鈦礦相之峰値,知道爲結晶構造。 接著,爲了調查利用本實施形態方法所形成之Ti02膜 的熱穩定性,將此膜在氧氣環境中、900 °C下進行熱處理後 ,進行薄膜X射線繞射測量予以進行構造解析,如第5圖 所示般地,見到了強烈銳鈦礦相之峰値。在進行900 °C之熱 處理的情形,由此可說已經完全結晶化了。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 由以上,以本實施形態方法及習知方法所製作的Ti02 膜的介電常數,不管是非晶質、結晶構造,都有幅度,其 原‘因可以認爲係膜厚薄和組成並非化學計量學組成。另外 ,關於形成在界面的Si02層之膜厚,利用本實施形態方法 以堆積非晶質Ti〇2膜,對此施以氧氣退火而進行改善體質 的情形者其膜厚變薄。其理由可認爲係在結晶構造之情形 ,氧氣通過結晶晶粒邊界而快速擴散’氧氣多數被供應給 Ti〇2膜與矽基板之界面之故,Si〇2層快速成長。 如此,知道利用本實施形態方法以堆積非晶質構造之 Ti02,藉由對其改善體質,即使表面平滑而且進行改善體 尺度適用中國國家標^^TcNS 規格(210Χ 297公釐) ——=^ ^ 200304184 A7 B7 五、發明説明(8 ) 質氧氣退火,形成在與矽基板的界面的Si02層之膜厚也不 會變厚,即可以獲得氧氣膜換算膜厚變薄的絕緣膜。 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) (實施形態2)
