200428567 五、發明說明(l) 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明係有關一種隔離元件的製造方法,特別係有關 於一種隔離具有垂直電晶體(vertical transistor)以及 深溝槽電容(deep trench capacitor)之主動區的方法。 【先前技術】 在積體電路晶片上製作高密度植入之半導體元件時, 必須考慮如何縮小每一個記憶單元的大小與電力消耗,以 使其操作速度加快。在傳統的平面電晶體設計中,為了獲 得一個最小尺寸之記憶單元,必須盡量將電晶體的閘極長 度細短,以減少δ己丨思早7C的橫向面積。但是,這會使閑極 無法忍受較大的漏電流而必須相對應地降低位元線上的電 壓,進而使得電容所儲存的電荷減少,所以在縮短閘極的 橫向長度同時,還要考量如何製作一個具有較大電容量之 電容,例如:增加電容之面積、減少電容板之間的有效介 質厚度等等。由於在實際製作上無法同時滿足減少記憶單 元面積且增加電容面積的條件,也無法進一步縮小有效介 質的厚度,因此目前發展出一種垂直電晶體(vert丨⑶丄 transistor)結構,可以將閘極長度維持在一個可得到低 漏電流的的適當值,不但不會減小位元線電壓,也不會增 加記憶單元的橫向面積。此外,還發展出一種深溝槽電容 (deep trench Capacitor),是直接設置於垂直電晶體下 方,不會佔用記憶單元的額外面積。200428567 V. Description of the invention (l) [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an isolation element, and more particularly, to an isolation device having a vertical transistor and a deep trench capacitor. Active zone method. [Previous Technology] When fabricating high-density implanted semiconductor components on integrated circuit wafers, it is necessary to consider how to reduce the size and power consumption of each memory cell in order to speed up its operation speed. In the traditional planar transistor design, in order to obtain a memory cell of the smallest size, the gate length of the transistor must be as short as possible to reduce the lateral area of 7C. However, this will make the leisure electrode unable to tolerate a large leakage current and must correspondingly reduce the voltage on the bit line, thereby reducing the charge stored in the capacitor. Therefore, while reducing the lateral length of the gate, it is also necessary to consider how to make Capacitors with large capacitance, such as: increasing the area of the capacitor, reducing the effective dielectric thickness between the capacitor plates, and so on. Since the conditions for reducing the memory cell area and increasing the capacitor area cannot be met in actual production, and the thickness of the effective medium cannot be further reduced, a vertical transistor (vert 丨 ⑶ 目前 transistor) structure is currently developed, which can reduce the gate length. Maintaining an appropriate value for obtaining low leakage current will not only reduce the bit line voltage, nor increase the lateral area of the memory cell. In addition, a deep trench capacitor (Deep Trench Capacitor) has also been developed, which is placed directly below the vertical transistor without occupying an additional area of the memory cell.

Description of the invention (9) Mask layer 213, the patterned mask layer 213 is, for example, a photoresist layer formed on the conductive layer 212a corresponding to the active region 201b And hard cover curtain layer 212b; and in order to fully cover the conductive layer 21 2a and hard cover curtain layer 2 1 2 b corresponding to the active area 20 lb, the 'patterned cover curtain layer 2 1 3 will also cover part of the corresponding The conductive layer 212a and the hard cover curtain layer 212b of the isolated area 2 05. Please refer to FIG. 2k ', using the patterned mask layer 2 0 3 as a money mask mask, the conductive layer 21 2a and the hard mask layer 21 2 b are sequentially etched to expose the unpatterned mask layer 2 0 3 The gate dielectric layer 21 and the insulating layer 205 are covered so as to form a conductive layer 212c and a hard mask layer 212d surrounding the active region 201b. Next, after the patterned mask layer 203 is removed, a dielectric layer 2 1 4 is formed on the semiconductor θ substrate 201, and a planarization step is performed on the dielectric layer 2 1 4 to make the dielectric layer 21 4 and conductive. The tops of the layer 212c and the hard cover curtain layer 21 2d are substantially the same height, as shown in FIG. 2p. The dielectric layer 2 4 is, for example, a high density plasma (HDP) oxide layer, and is used as an isolation region between the active R 2 0 1 b. °° According to the present invention, in the active region process of a dynamic random access memory cell with a partially vertical channel transistor, an anti-reflection layer can be formed as a self-aligned mask in a deep trench. Reducing the number of masks can effectively reduce production time and costs. At the same time, because the anti-reflection layer is an etching mask, it can avoid etching to the collar-shaped ring of the deep trench: Layer: Therefore, it is possible to use a polysilicon layer and a nitrided layer with good selective etching: Emulsion, such as bromination Hydrogen gas is used as an etching reaction gas. Although the present invention has been disclosed and limited by the preferred embodiments, anyone skilled in the art is as above but it is not intended to depart from the spirit of the present invention.
