Description

半導體裝置之製造方法及半導體裝置 Semiconductor device manufacturing method and semiconductor device

本發明關於一種半導體裝置之製造方法及半導體裝置。 The present invention relates to a method of fabricating a semiconductor device and a semiconductor device.

近年來,半導體裝置的配線為了低電阻化及高可靠度,係使用Cu配線。Cu配線由於難以藉由乾蝕刻來形成,因此係具有多層地形成有配線之鑲嵌配線構造。鑲嵌配線構造係依下述方法製作:使Cu膜沉積在形成於層間絕緣膜上之配線圖案的溝槽,之後,藉由化學研磨(以下,亦稱作CMP法)來去除沉積在溝槽以外的Cu。 In recent years, in order to reduce the resistance and high reliability of the wiring of the semiconductor device, Cu wiring is used. Since the Cu wiring is difficult to be formed by dry etching, it has a damascene wiring structure in which wiring is formed in a plurality of layers. The damascene wiring structure is formed by depositing a Cu film on a trench of a wiring pattern formed on the interlayer insulating film, and then removing it by a chemical polishing (hereinafter, also referred to as a CMP method). Cu.

此處,Cu配線係形成於層間絕緣膜的內部。然後,再層積複數的層間絕緣膜。因此,Cu配線的製造工序中之熱處理的昇溫、除溫過程後,便會因各材料之熱膨脹係數的差異而產生之應力或層間絕緣膜所具有之壓縮應力的影響,而導致例如數百MPa的拉伸應力作用在Cu配線。因該拉伸應力所引起之Cu配線處的應力集中,而在Cu配線中產生應力梯度。應力會成為存在於Cu配線內之空孔(原子空孔)移動的驅動力。該等空孔會聚集在Cu配線內而形成孔隙(空洞),而有因孔隙成長導致Cu配線斷線,因而發生稱作應力遷移的配線不良之問題。特別是,藉由介層孔配線(層間配線)而接合的雙層配線系統中,會有上述應力集中在介層孔配線與Cu配線的接合部附近,而在該等接合部處容易發生斷線等的配線不良之問題。於是,便被要求藉由抑制半導體裝置中之Cu配線或介層孔配線的配線 不良來延長裝置壽命。 Here, the Cu wiring is formed inside the interlayer insulating film. Then, a plurality of interlayer insulating films are laminated. Therefore, after the temperature rise and the temperature removal process of the heat treatment in the manufacturing process of the Cu wiring, the stress generated by the difference in the thermal expansion coefficient of each material or the compressive stress of the interlayer insulating film may affect, for example, several hundred MPa. The tensile stress acts on the Cu wiring. The stress concentration at the Cu wiring due to the tensile stress causes a stress gradient in the Cu wiring. The stress becomes a driving force for the movement of the pores (atomic pores) existing in the Cu wiring. These holes are accumulated in the Cu wiring to form voids (voids), and the Cu wiring is broken due to pore growth, which causes a problem of wiring failure called stress migration. In particular, in the two-layer wiring system in which the via wiring (interlayer wiring) is bonded, the stress is concentrated in the vicinity of the joint portion between the via wiring and the Cu wiring, and the wiring is likely to be broken at the bonding portions. The problem of poor wiring. Therefore, it is required to suppress the wiring of the Cu wiring or the via wiring in the semiconductor device. Bad to extend the life of the device.

於是,例如專利文獻1中揭示一種半導體裝置,其係藉由銀等之再結晶化溫度高的金屬或溫度-應力曲線中之遲滯幅度狹窄的金屬來保護配線構造等之金屬區域的表面,藉以抑制上述應力遷移。 Then, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a semiconductor device which protects the surface of a metal region such as a wiring structure by a metal having a high recrystallization temperature such as silver or a metal having a narrow hysteresis in a temperature-stress curve. The above stress migration is suppressed.

專利文獻1:日本特開2004-39916號公報 Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2004-39916

然而,上述專利文獻1所記載之技術中,係將應力遷移的原因歸咎於因不同材料的熱膨脹率差異而引起、發生的應力集中,其解決方法雖係以銀等來保護金屬區域的表面,但本案發明人等發現應力遷移的發生原因為伴隨著應力集中之空孔的移動,該空孔的移動(亦即,空孔濃度)並無法藉由以銀等金屬保護金屬區域(配線構造)的表面而控制,上述專利文獻1所記載之技術並無法充分抑制應力遷移的發生。再者,上述專利文獻1所記載之技術由於係進行於金屬區域(配線構造)表面設置銀等的膜之工序,故必需有該膜的成膜工序,因而在半導體裝置的製造中,亦有工序數增加或費用增加等受到疑慮之問題點。 However, in the technique described in Patent Document 1, the stress migration is attributed to the stress concentration caused by the difference in the coefficient of thermal expansion of the different materials, and the solution is to protect the surface of the metal region by silver or the like. However, the inventors of the present invention have found that the cause of the stress migration is the movement of the pores accompanied by the stress concentration, and the movement of the pores (that is, the pore concentration) cannot be protected by the metal such as silver (wiring structure). Controlling the surface, the technique described in the above Patent Document 1 cannot sufficiently suppress the occurrence of stress migration. In addition, in the technique described in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, since a film of silver or the like is provided on the surface of the metal region (wiring structure), a film forming step of the film is required. Therefore, in the manufacture of the semiconductor device, There are problems with doubts such as an increase in the number of processes or an increase in costs.

本發明有鑑於上述問題點,其目的在於提供一種半導體裝置之製造方法及半導體裝置,係藉由抑制Cu配線內之空孔的集中,來抑制Cu配線內之孔隙的形成,以抑制例如雙層配線系統的介層孔連接部等處發生所謂的應力遷移之斷線等配線不良。 The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device and a semiconductor device which suppress the formation of voids in a Cu wiring by suppressing concentration of voids in the Cu wiring to suppress, for example, double layer. A wiring defect such as a disconnection of a so-called stress migration occurs in a via hole connection portion of the wiring system or the like.

為達成上述目的,依據本發明,可提供一種具有銅配線構造之半導體裝置之製造方法,其係在包含有加熱處理之銅配線層的形成後進行將被處理基板加熱及除熱之熱循環工序。 In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device having a copper wiring structure, which is a thermal cycle process for heating and removing heat of a substrate to be processed after formation of a copper wiring layer including heat treatment, can be provided. .

又,依據本發明,可提供一種半導體裝置之製造方法,係在具有鑲嵌配線構造之半導體裝置之製造方法中, 於配線形成結束後進行將半導體裝置加熱及除熱之熱循環工序。 Moreover, according to the present invention, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device can be provided in a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device having a damascene wiring structure. After the wiring formation is completed, a thermal cycle process of heating and removing heat of the semiconductor device is performed.

再者,依據本發明之其他觀點,可提供一種半導體裝置,係具有鑲嵌配線構造之半導體裝置,其係在配線形成後施予將半導體裝置加熱及除熱之熱循環。 Furthermore, according to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor device having a damascene wiring structure, wherein a thermal cycle for heating and removing heat of the semiconductor device is performed after the wiring is formed.

依據本發明,便可提供一種半導體裝置之製造方法及半導體裝置,藉由抑制Cu配線內之空孔的集中,來抑制Cu配線內之孔隙的形成,以抑制例如雙層配線系統的介層孔連接部等處發生所謂的應力遷移之斷線等配線不良。 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a semiconductor device manufacturing method and a semiconductor device capable of suppressing the formation of voids in the Cu wiring by suppressing the concentration of voids in the Cu wiring, thereby suppressing, for example, a via hole of the double-layer wiring system. A wiring defect such as a disconnection of a so-called stress migration occurs at a connection portion or the like.

首先,如圖1所示,例如層間絕緣膜2係形成於基板本體1的上方。作為層間絕緣膜2,舉例有SiO2或SiCO等之含有Si的膜,或含有碳與氟之CFx等的低比介電率膜。接著,藉由光微影及反應性離子蝕刻(RIE),而於層間絕緣膜2的表面形成配線溝槽4。 First, as shown in FIG. 1, for example, an interlayer insulating film 2 is formed above the substrate body 1. The interlayer insulating film 2 is exemplified by a film containing Si such as SiO 2 or SiCO, or a low specific dielectric film containing CF x such as carbon or fluorine. Next, the wiring trench 4 is formed on the surface of the interlayer insulating film 2 by photolithography and reactive ion etching (RIE).

接下來,如圖2所示,被覆配線溝槽4的內面般地,於層間絕緣膜2上連續形成阻絕金屬(以下,稱作BM)膜5與Cu鍍覆種晶層7。BM膜5係將Ta膜濺鍍在層間絕緣膜2的整面所形成。BM膜5為Ta膜、TaN膜、Ta化合物膜或Ta合金膜的單層膜,或Ti膜、TiN膜、Ti化合物膜或Ti合金膜的單層膜,或該等之2種以上的層積膜。又,Cu鍍覆種晶層7係藉由例如濺鍍而形成。 Next, as shown in FIG. 2, a barrier metal (hereinafter referred to as BM) film 5 and a Cu plating seed layer 7 are continuously formed on the interlayer insulating film 2 like the inner surface of the wiring trench 4. The BM film 5 is formed by sputtering a Ta film on the entire surface of the interlayer insulating film 2. The BM film 5 is a single film of a Ta film, a TaN film, a Ta compound film or a Ta alloy film, or a single film of a Ti film, a TiN film, a Ti compound film or a Ti alloy film, or two or more layers thereof.

接下來,如圖3所示,Cu導電層10係自Cu鍍覆種晶層7的上方將配線溝槽4埋入般地,形成於基板W的表面整體。Cu導電層10不限於純Cu,亦可為Cu合金,或藉由電解鍍覆等而形成。此外,藉由Cu導電層10的形成,來使得Cu鍍覆種晶層7與Cu導電層10為一體成型。 Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the Cu conductive layer 10 is formed in the entire surface of the substrate W by embedding the wiring trench 4 from above the Cu plating seed layer 7. The Cu conductive layer 10 is not limited to pure Cu, and may be a Cu alloy or formed by electrolytic plating or the like. Further, the Cu plating seed layer 7 and the Cu conductive layer 10 are integrally formed by the formation of the Cu conductive layer 10.

接下來,如圖4所示,使Cu導電層10與BM膜5的部分殘留在配線溝槽4的內部,而自層間絕緣膜2的上方藉由CMP(化學性機械研磨)法來去除Cu導電層10與BM膜5。如此地,配線溝槽4的內部便會以被BM膜5包圍之狀態而形成有Cu配線15(Cu導電層10),藉以製造具有鑲嵌配線構造之Cu配線構造18。 Next, as shown in FIG. 4, portions of the Cu conductive layer 10 and the BM film 5 are left inside the wiring trench 4, and Cu is removed from the upper portion of the interlayer insulating film 2 by CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) method. Conductive layer 10 and BM film 5. In this manner, the inside of the wiring trench 4 is formed with the Cu wiring 15 (Cu conductive layer 10) in a state surrounded by the BM film 5, whereby the Cu wiring structure 18 having the damascene wiring structure is manufactured.

如圖1~圖4所示,所製造之Cu配線構造18係複數地配置於半導體裝置A內,通常為雙層連接。因此,以下便參閱圖5~圖8,來加以說明配置為雙層之Cu配線構造18(以下稱作第1層18a與第2層18b)係連接有介層孔之結構之半導體裝置A的製造工序。此外,圖5~圖8中,針對與上述圖1~圖4記載者相同的結構要素則賦予相同符號。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the manufactured Cu wiring structure 18 is disposed in plural in the semiconductor device A, and is usually connected in a double layer. Therefore, a semiconductor device A having a structure in which a double-layered Cu wiring structure 18 (hereinafter referred to as a first layer 18a and a second layer 18b) is connected with a via hole will be described below with reference to FIGS. 5 to 8. Manufacturing process. In addition, in FIGS. 5 to 8, the same components as those in the above-described FIGS. 1 to 4 are denoted by the same reference numerals.

首先,如圖5所示,例如參閱圖1~4且藉由上述方法來製造Cu配線構造18(第1層18a),再於其上面以任意的方法來形成設置有配線孔與配線溝槽4之層間絕緣膜2。接下來,如圖6所示,與上述圖2同樣地,被覆配線溝槽4的內面般,而連續形成BM膜5及Cu鍍覆種晶層7。 First, as shown in FIG. 5, for example, referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, a Cu wiring structure 18 (first layer 18a) is manufactured by the above method, and wiring holes and wiring trenches are formed thereon by an arbitrary method. 4 interlayer insulating film 2. Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the BM film 5 and the Cu plating seed layer 7 are continuously formed as in the inner surface of the wiring trench 4 as in the above-described FIG.

然後,如圖7所示,Cu導電層10便會如同自Cu鍍覆種晶層7的上方將配線溝槽4埋入般地被形成。在埋入有該Cu導電層10之狀態下,為了謀求膜的穩定化,而進行退火處理或後述本案發明之熱循環處理,之後,如圖8所示般地使Cu導電層10與BM膜5殘留在配線溝槽4的內部,並藉由CMP法來去除露出在配線溝槽4的上部之Cu導電層10與BM膜5,而形成Cu配線構造18(第2層18b)。如此地製造稱作所謂的雙鑲嵌構造之Cu配線構造乃為雙層連接之半導體裝置A。此外,該半導體裝置A中之連接第1層18a與第2層18b之連接配線係稱作介層孔配線20之配線。 Then, as shown in FIG. 7, the Cu conductive layer 10 is formed in the same manner as the wiring trench 4 is buried from above the Cu plating seed layer 7. In the state in which the Cu conductive layer 10 is embedded, annealing treatment or heat cycle treatment of the present invention described later is performed in order to stabilize the film, and then the Cu conductive layer 10 and the BM film are formed as shown in FIG. 5 remains inside the wiring trench 4, and the Cu conductive layer 10 and the BM film 5 exposed on the upper portion of the wiring trench 4 are removed by a CMP method to form a Cu wiring structure 18 (second layer 18b). The Cu wiring structure called a so-called dual damascene structure is manufactured in such a manner that the semiconductor device A is double-layered. Further, the connection wiring connecting the first layer 18a and the second layer 18b in the semiconductor device A is referred to as a wiring of the via hole wiring 20.

圖5~圖8所示半導體裝置A中之Cu配線構造18的形成中,由於係為了使Cu導電層穩定而進行熱處理工序,因此在該過程中會進行昇溫、降溫。因該昇溫、降溫,會因異種材料的熱膨脹差,而在各材料彼此的界面處發生熱應力,結果便成為Cu配線15內部發生殘留應力之狀態。又,如上所述地,光微影、反應性離子蝕刻(RIE)及濺鍍等的工序中,亦會在其過程中進行昇溫、降溫。 In the formation of the Cu wiring structure 18 in the semiconductor device A shown in FIGS. 5 to 8 , since the heat treatment step is performed in order to stabilize the Cu conductive layer, the temperature rise and the temperature are lowered in the process. When the temperature rises and the temperature is lowered, thermal stress is generated at the interface between the materials due to the difference in thermal expansion of the different materials, and as a result, residual stress is generated inside the Cu wiring 15 . Further, as described above, in the processes of photolithography, reactive ion etching (RIE), and sputtering, temperature rise and temperature drop are also performed in the process.

Cu配線15的內部會不可避免地存在有原子等級大小的空孔。因此,例如圖8所示般之連接有介層孔之結構的半導體裝置A中,當Cu配線15內部產生的殘留應力作用在介層孔配線20附近之情況,便會因構造而導致應力的集中發生在介層孔配線20附近(特別是介層孔配線20與第1層18a內的Cu配線15之接合部20a)。伴隨著該應力集中,分散於Cu配線內之空孔會集中在介層孔配線20附近,導致孔隙(空洞)形成於Cu配線15內部。因該Cu配線15內之孔隙的形成,而發生電阻的增加或斷線等的配線不良,導致裝置故障。 The inside of the Cu wiring 15 inevitably has pores of an atomic size. Therefore, in the semiconductor device A having the structure in which the via hole is connected as shown in FIG. 8, for example, when residual stress generated inside the Cu wiring 15 acts in the vicinity of the via hole wiring 20, stress is caused by the structure. Concentration occurs in the vicinity of the via hole wiring 20 (particularly, the via hole 20 and the bonding portion 20a of the Cu wiring 15 in the first layer 18a). With this stress concentration, the pores dispersed in the Cu wiring are concentrated in the vicinity of the via wiring 20, and voids (voids) are formed inside the Cu wiring 15. Due to the formation of the voids in the Cu wiring 15, an increase in resistance or a wiring failure such as disconnection occurs, resulting in device failure.

又,若在Cu配線15的內部發生殘留應力之狀態下將半導體裝置製作成產品的情況,則會隨著該裝置的使用或時間經過,因應力集中導致內部的空孔集中,而亦有形成孔隙之虞。因此會有裝置的壽命變短之疑慮。 Further, when the semiconductor device is fabricated into a product in a state in which residual stress is generated inside the Cu wiring 15, the internal pores are concentrated due to stress concentration due to the use of the device or the passage of time. The pores of the pores. Therefore, there is a concern that the life of the device is shortened.

於是,本案發明人等發現藉由在配線形成處理或其他燒結處理、退火處理等之對半導體裝置施予熱或除熱般的處理工序結束後,對該半導體裝置(亦即,被處理基板W)進行熱循環工序(至少為加熱步驟及除熱步驟所構成的熱循環,較佳為包含有均熱步驟),便可抑制應力集中在Cu配線構造18或介層孔配線20(特別是Cu配線與介層孔配線的接合部)內,其結果,可抑制半導體裝置內之空孔的集中(空孔凝集)。以下,說明上述發現。 Then, the inventors of the present invention found that the semiconductor device (that is, the substrate W to be processed) is finished after the treatment process of applying heat or heat to the semiconductor device, such as wiring formation processing or other sintering treatment or annealing treatment, is completed. By performing a thermal cycle process (at least a thermal cycle including a heating step and a heat removal step, preferably including a soaking step), stress concentration on the Cu wiring structure 18 or the via wiring 20 (especially Cu wiring) can be suppressed. In the joint portion with the via hole wiring, as a result, concentration (hole agglutination) of the voids in the semiconductor device can be suppressed. Hereinafter, the above findings will be described.

圖9係顯示針對配線形成處理或其他燒結處理、退火處理等之對半導體裝置施加熱或除熱般的處理工序結束後之半導體裝置進行熱循環工序時的條件之圖表。此外,圖9所示條件中,係在施予360℃的熱之熱處理工序後,進行僅有加熱及除熱1小時(圖9中為0.5hr~1.5hr),並使此時的熱疲勞溫度⊿T(加熱及除熱之溫度)改變為50℃、100℃、150℃、200℃來進行熱循環工序。此外,實際的處理溫度可藉由於熱疲勞溫度⊿T加上熱循環工序前或熱 循環工序後的溫度,來求得實際的處理溫度。熱循環工序前後的溫度為例如室溫,圖9中為20℃。 FIG. 9 is a graph showing conditions when a semiconductor device is subjected to a thermal cycle process after the completion of the processing step of applying heat or heat to the semiconductor device, such as wiring formation processing or other sintering treatment or annealing treatment. Further, in the conditions shown in Fig. 9, after the heat treatment step of heat treatment at 360 ° C, only heating and heat removal were performed for 1 hour (0.5 hr to 1.5 hr in Fig. 9), and thermal fatigue at this time was performed. The temperature ⊿T (temperature of heating and heat removal) was changed to 50 ° C, 100 ° C, 150 ° C, and 200 ° C to perform a thermal cycle process. In addition, the actual processing temperature can be due to thermal fatigue temperature ⊿T plus before the thermal cycling process or heat The actual processing temperature is obtained by the temperature after the cycle. The temperature before and after the heat cycle process is, for example, room temperature, and is 20 ° C in Fig. 9 .

又,圖10係顯示以圖9所示條件來進行熱循環工序之情況下,Cu配線與介層孔配線的接合部附近(以下,亦稱作介層孔接合部)處的空孔濃度與時變化模擬結果之圖表。此外,圖10亦圖示了未進行熱循環工序情況(⊿T=0℃)下之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化。 Moreover, FIG. 10 is a view showing the hole concentration at the vicinity of the joint portion (hereinafter also referred to as a via hole joint portion) of the Cu wiring and the via hole wiring in the case where the thermal cycle process is performed under the conditions shown in FIG. A chart that changes the simulation results. In addition, FIG. 10 also illustrates the hole concentration and time variation at the interlayer hole joint portion in the case where the heat cycle process is not performed (⊿T=0° C.).

如圖9、圖10所示,使⊿T為50℃、100℃、150℃、200℃情況下之1小時後介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度相較於未進行熱循環工序之情況為增加。另一方面,使⊿T為100℃、150℃、200℃情況下之1000小時後介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度相較於未進行熱循環工序之情況為減少。亦即,使⊿T為100℃、150℃及200℃來進行熱循環工序之半導體裝置中,空孔濃度雖然增加,但之後空孔的集中(空孔凝集)速度會變慢。結果,發現經過長時間後之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度相較於未進行熱循環之半導體裝置為較低。又,如圖10所示,可得知為了有效抑制介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化,進行熱循環工序之情況的較佳加熱溫度為150℃以上。 As shown in FIG. 9 and FIG. 10, the pore concentration at the joint of the mesopores at 1 hour after the enthalpy T is 50° C., 100° C., 150° C., and 200° C. is compared with the case where the thermal cycle process is not performed. To increase. On the other hand, the pore concentration at the via hole joint portion after 1000 hours in the case where ⊿T is 100 ° C, 150 ° C, and 200 ° C is reduced as compared with the case where the heat cycle process is not performed. In other words, in the semiconductor device in which the thermal cycle is performed at a temperature of 100 ° C, 150 ° C, and 200 ° C in the semiconductor device, the pore concentration is increased, but the concentration (pore agglomeration) of the pores is slowed. As a result, it was found that the concentration of voids at the junction of the via holes after a long period of time was lower than that of the semiconductor device which was not subjected to thermal cycling. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 10, it is understood that a preferable heating temperature in the case of performing a thermal cycle process is 150 ° C or more in order to effectively suppress the pore concentration and the time change at the via hole joint portion.

又,圖11係顯示未進行熱循環工序情況下之介層孔接合部處的1000小時後空孔濃度分佈(a),與使⊿T為200℃來進行熱循環工序情況下之介層孔接合部處的1000小時後空孔濃度分佈(b)之模擬結果。由圖11所示結果亦可得知有進行熱循環之半導體裝置中之經過長時間後之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度係較未進行熱循環之半導體裝置要來得低。 Further, Fig. 11 shows the pore concentration distribution (a) after 1000 hours at the via hole joint portion in the case where the heat cycle process is not performed, and the via hole in the case where the ⊿T is 200 °C for the thermal cycle process. The simulation result of the pore concentration distribution (b) after 1000 hours at the joint. From the results shown in Fig. 11, it is also known that the concentration of voids at the junction of the via holes after a long period of time in the semiconductor device in which thermal cycling is performed is lower than that of the semiconductor device which is not subjected to thermal cycling.

另一方面,圖12及圖13係顯示為了特定出用來引發空孔濃度的凝結與釋放之熱疲勞溫度⊿T而進行的模擬結果之圖表,圖12係顯示熱疲勞負荷條件,圖13係顯示使⊿T為50℃、100℃、150℃、200℃,並將該溫度保持為 一定之情況(亦即,圖12所示條件的情況)下之介層孔接合部(角部)處的空孔濃度與時變化。此外,圖13亦圖示了未進行加熱步驟情況(⊿T=0℃)下之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化。 On the other hand, Fig. 12 and Fig. 13 are graphs showing simulation results for specifying the thermal fatigue temperature ⊿T for causing condensation and release of the pore concentration, and Fig. 12 shows the thermal fatigue load condition, Fig. 13 is Display so that ⊿T is 50 ° C, 100 ° C, 150 ° C, 200 ° C, and keep the temperature at In a certain case (that is, in the case of the condition shown in Fig. 12), the pore concentration at the interlayer joint portion (corner portion) changes with time. In addition, FIG. 13 also illustrates the hole concentration and time variation at the interlayer hole joint in the case where the heating step is not performed (⊿T=0° C.).

如圖13所示,可得知當⊿T為100℃,150℃,200℃的情況,因加熱步驟而發生空孔濃度的上昇與降低。亦即,發生空孔濃度的凝結與釋放。另一方面,當⊿T為50℃的情況,則未因加熱步驟而發生空孔濃度的上昇與降低,亦即,空孔濃度的凝結與釋放。因此,可得知可藉由引發空孔濃度的凝結與釋放來使介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度降低之熱疲勞溫度⊿T(熱循環工序中的加熱溫度)為100℃以上。 As shown in Fig. 13, when ⊿T is 100 ° C, 150 ° C, and 200 ° C, the increase and decrease of the pore concentration occur due to the heating step. That is, condensation and release of the pore concentration occur. On the other hand, when ⊿T is 50 ° C, the increase and decrease of the pore concentration, that is, the condensation and release of the pore concentration, are not caused by the heating step. Therefore, it is known that the thermal fatigue temperature ⊿T (heating temperature in the heat cycle process) at which the pore concentration at the interlayer pore joint portion can be lowered by the condensation and release of the induced pore concentration is 100 ° C or higher.

另一方面,圖14係顯示針對對半導體裝置施予熱或除熱般的處理工序結束後之半導體裝置進行加熱步驟、均熱步驟、除熱步驟所構成的熱循環工序時的條件之圖表,圖15係顯示以圖14所示條件來進行熱循環工序之情況下,介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化模擬結果之圖表。此外,作為圖14所示熱循環工序的條件,係使熱疲勞溫度⊿T為200℃,而使均熱時間t3改變為0hr、0.5hr、2hr及∞(無限大)。此外,t3為0hr的情況,由於均熱時間為0hr,因此會成為與上述圖9所示⊿T為200℃的情況相同之圖表。又,t3為∞的情況,由於均熱時間為∞,因此會成為與上述圖13所示⊿T為200℃的情況相同之圖表。又,圖15亦圖示了未進行熱循環工序情況下之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化。此處的加熱步驟係加熱至特定溫度(例如使⊿T為100℃以上)來釋放空孔凝結,均熱步驟係保持直到該空孔凝結的釋放結束為止的時間。 On the other hand, FIG. 14 is a graph showing conditions in a thermal cycle process including a heating step, a soaking step, and a heat removing step of the semiconductor device after the processing step of applying heat or heat to the semiconductor device is completed. Fig. 15 shows a graph showing the results of the simulation of the pore concentration and the time change at the via hole joint portion in the case where the thermal cycle process was carried out under the conditions shown in Fig. 14. Moreover, as a condition of the thermal cycle process shown in FIG. 14, the thermal fatigue temperature ⊿T was 200 ° C, and the soaking time t 3 was changed to 0 hr, 0.5 hr, 2 hr, and ∞ (infinity). Further, when t 3 is 0 hr, since the soaking time is 0 hr, it is the same as the case where ⊿T shown in Fig. 9 is 200 °C. Further, when t 3 is ∞, since the soaking time is ∞, it is the same as the case where ⊿T shown in Fig. 13 is 200 °C. Further, Fig. 15 also shows the change in the concentration of the pores at the junction of the via holes in the case where the thermal cycle process is not performed. The heating step here is heated to a specific temperature (for example, ⊿T is 100 ° C or higher) to release the pore condensation, and the soaking step is maintained until the end of the release of the pore condensation.

如圖14、圖15所示,比較使半導體裝置昇溫至200℃之狀態下的保持時間(均熱時間)t3為0hr的情況,及t3為0.5hr、2hr情況的空孔濃度與時變化後,發現均熱時間 t3為0.5hr、2hr的情況,介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度被抑制為較低。又,如圖15所示,t3為∞(無限大)的情況,1小時後至100小時後的空孔濃度與時變化並未受到抑制。因而發現熱循環工序中係存在有較佳均熱時間t3,例如較佳均熱時間t3由圖15的數據為0hr以上2hr以內。又,由於處理時間以產能的觀點來看盡可能地較短者為佳,因此較佳的均熱時間t3為0hr以上0.5hr以內。再者,若除熱步驟中的除熱時間較長,由於除熱時會發生空孔凝結,因此除熱時間亦較短者為佳。 14, FIG. 15, the semiconductor device was warmed to compare the retention time (soaking time) t 3 is the case where 0hr, and t 3 to 0.5hr, 2hr case when the vacancy concentration in a state of 200 ℃ After the change, it was found that the soaking time t 3 was 0.5 hr and 2 hr, and the pore concentration at the junction of the mesopores was suppressed to be low. Further, as shown in Fig. 15, when t 3 is ∞ (infinity), the pore concentration and time change from 1 hour to 100 hours are not suppressed. Therefore, it has been found that there is a preferred soaking time t 3 in the thermal cycle process, for example, the preferred soaking time t 3 is from 0 hr to 2 hr from the data of FIG. 15 . Further, since the treatment time is preferably as short as possible from the viewpoint of productivity, the preferred soaking time t3 is 0 hr or more and 0.5 hr or less. Furthermore, if the heat removal time in the heat removal step is long, voiding may occur due to heat removal, so that the heat removal time is also shorter.

又,圖16係顯示加熱步驟、均熱步驟、除熱步驟所構成的熱循環工序中,改變除熱時間之情況下的熱循環工序條件之圖表,圖17係顯示以圖16所示條件來進行熱循環工序之情況下,介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化模擬結果之圖表。此外,作為圖16所示熱循環工序的條件,係使熱疲勞溫度⊿T為200℃,使均熱時間t3為0.5hr,而使除熱時間t4改變為0.5hr、1hr、2hr。此外,圖11亦圖示了未進行熱循環工序情況下之介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度與時變化。 Moreover, FIG. 16 is a graph showing the conditions of the thermal cycle process in the case of changing the heat removal time in the heat cycle process including the heating step, the soaking step, and the heat removal step, and FIG. 17 shows the condition shown in FIG. In the case of a thermal cycle process, a plot of the hole concentration at the interfacial well junction and the time-varying simulation results. Further, as a condition of the heat cycle step shown in Fig. 16, the thermal fatigue temperature ⊿T was 200 ° C, the soaking time t 3 was 0.5 hr, and the heat removal time t 4 was changed to 0.5 hr, 1 hr, and 2 hr. In addition, FIG. 11 also illustrates the hole concentration and time variation at the interlayer hole joint portion in the case where the heat cycle process is not performed.

由圖16、圖17發現將加熱至200℃後的半導體基板予以除熱之時間(除熱時間)t4愈短,則介層孔接合部處的空孔濃度會被抑制為較低。亦即,可得知在熱循環工序中進行除熱的情況,其除熱時間t4較短,亦即除熱中的冷卻速度較快者為佳。此處,作為較佳冷卻速度,由圖17的數據為100℃/h以上。 16 and 17, it is found that the shorter the time (heat removal time) t 4 of heat removal of the semiconductor substrate heated to 200 ° C, the lower the pore concentration at the via hole joint portion is suppressed. That is, it can be known that in the case of performing heat removal in the heat cycle process, the heat removal time t 4 is shorter, that is, the cooling rate in the heat removal is faster. Here, as a preferable cooling rate, the data of FIG. 17 is 100 ° C / h or more.

以上,由圖9~圖17所示數據發現藉由針對配線形成處理或其他燒結處理、退火處理等之對半導體裝置施予熱或除熱般的處理工序結束後之半導體裝置進行熱循環工序,可抑制Cu配線構造18或介層孔配線20(特別是介層孔接合部)處的空孔濃度與時變化。又,亦推測出在熱循環工序中有效率地抑制空孔濃度的與時變化之條件。 As described above, from the data shown in FIG. 9 to FIG. 17, it is found that the semiconductor device is subjected to a thermal cycle process after the processing step of applying heat or heat to the semiconductor device, such as wiring formation processing or other sintering treatment or annealing treatment. The hole concentration at the Cu wiring structure 18 or the via hole wiring 20 (particularly, the via hole junction portion) is suppressed from changing with time. Further, it is also estimated that the conditions for temporal change of the pore concentration are efficiently suppressed in the thermal cycle step.

又,由上述數據推測空孔濃度會相關於半導體裝置內的應力而導致之空孔凝結與空孔濃度梯度造成的擴散。亦即,當溫度上昇,雖因應力而導致空孔凝結速度上昇且空孔濃度增加,但空孔凝結速度會具有極大值,而在成為某一溫度以上後便減少。另一方面,若因空孔凝結而導致空孔濃度梯度變大,則擴散速度會變大。因此,會因應力所導致之空孔凝結速度的下降與空孔濃度梯度所導致之擴散速度上昇的影響而造成空孔濃度減少,藉由發生空孔凝結的釋放,則配線內之空孔的集中會受到抑制。 Further, it is estimated from the above data that the pore concentration is related to the diffusion due to the pore condensation and the pore concentration gradient caused by the stress in the semiconductor device. That is, when the temperature rises, the pore condensing speed increases due to the stress and the pore concentration increases, but the pore condensing speed has a maximum value, and decreases after becoming a certain temperature or higher. On the other hand, if the pore concentration gradient becomes large due to the condensation of the pores, the diffusion speed becomes large. Therefore, the pore concentration decreases due to the decrease in the pore condensation rate caused by the stress and the increase in the diffusion speed caused by the pore concentration gradient, and the void in the wiring is caused by the release of the pore condensation. Concentration will be suppressed.

由上述發現可知在半導體裝置製造工序中,藉由以較佳條件來進行熱循環工序,藉此可抑制稱作所謂的孔隙之空孔的集合體(空洞)發生在Cu配線內,從而可抑制Cu配線處之稱作所謂的應力遷移之斷線等配線不良的發生。再者,由於在半導體裝置製造工序中,藉由以較佳條件來進行熱循環工序,藉此可抑制製作成產品而經過長時間後,於Cu配線構造或介層孔接合部處發生空孔濃度上昇,因此可延長半導體裝置的裝置壽命。 According to the above findings, in the semiconductor device manufacturing process, by performing the thermal cycle process under favorable conditions, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of aggregates (cavities) called pores in the so-called pores in the Cu wiring, thereby suppressing The Cu wiring is called the occurrence of wiring defects such as disconnection of stress migration. In addition, in the semiconductor device manufacturing process, by performing the thermal cycle process under favorable conditions, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of voids in the Cu wiring structure or the via hole joint portion after a long period of time after the product is formed. The concentration rises, so the device life of the semiconductor device can be extended.
