本發明涉及半導體製造領域,尤其涉及一種電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置及其自感應線圈及其用於製造半導體基片的方法。The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, and in particular to an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus and a self-inducting coil thereof and a method for manufacturing the same.

等離子處理裝置利用真空反應室的工作原理進行半導體基片和等離子平板的基片的加工。真空反應室的工作原理是在真空反應室中通入含有適當刻蝕劑源氣體的反應氣體,然後再對該真空反應室進行射頻能量輸入,以啟動反應氣體,來激發和維持等離子體,以便分別刻蝕基片表面上的材料層或在基片表面上澱積材料層,進而對半導體基片和等離子平板進行加工。The plasma processing apparatus performs processing of the substrate of the semiconductor substrate and the plasma flat plate by using the working principle of the vacuum reaction chamber. The working principle of the vacuum reaction chamber is to pass a reaction gas containing a suitable etchant source gas into the vacuum reaction chamber, and then input RF energy to the vacuum reaction chamber to start the reaction gas to excite and maintain the plasma. The semiconductor substrate and the plasma plate are processed by etching a material layer on the surface of the substrate or depositing a material layer on the surface of the substrate.

圖1示出了習知技術的一種電感耦合等離子體處理裝置的結構示意圖,所述電感耦合等離子體處理裝置100包括一反應腔室105。在反應腔室105下方設置了一個用於承載和固定基片104的基台101。電感耦合線圈設置於反應腔室105的頂蓋上方;射頻電源103用於向所述電感耦合線圈供電,以向腔室內部耦合提供射頻能量。其中,所述電感耦合線圈包括中間線圈102a和週邊線圈102b。在製程過程中,從反應腔室105上部進入的反應氣體被中間線圈102a和週邊線圈102b產生的高能磁場電離,形成等離子體。等離子體在高能磁場的作用下向下運動,對固定於基台101上的基片104進行製程(例如刻蝕反應)。因此電感耦合線圈102產生的磁場的分佈情況會影響等離子體的分佈。1 shows a schematic structural view of an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus of the prior art, the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus 100 including a reaction chamber 105.

Wherein, the inductive coupling coil comprises an intermediate coil 102a and a peripheral coil 102b. During the process, the reaction gas entering from the upper portion of the reaction chamber 105 is ionized by the high-energy magnetic field generated by the intermediate coil 102a and the peripheral coil 102b to form a plasma. The plasma moves downward under the action of a high-energy magnetic field to perform a process (e.g., an etching reaction) on the substrate 104 fixed on the substrate 101. Therefore, the distribution of the magnetic field generated by the inductive coupling coil 102 affects the distribution of the plasma.

需要說明的是,在本實施例中,中心線圈和週邊線圈分別連接了不同的射頻電源,因此其輸出的射頻功率可以獨立調節。可選地,本發明的射頻電源可以為兩個相互獨立的電源設備,也可以為同一電源設備中兩個獨立的供電模組,分別向所述中心線圈和週邊線圈提供射頻功率,激發磁場。It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the center coil and the peripheral coil are respectively connected to different RF power sources, so the output RF power can be independently adjusted.

圖2示出了本發明的優選實施例。在本實施例中,中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b僅以單圈線圈結構示出。需要說明的是,在實際應用中,電感耦合線圈的配置包括多種形式,例如螺旋型、多圈線圈結構等。在本實施例中,自感應線圈2121也為單圈線圈。Figure 2 shows a preferred embodiment of the invention. In the present embodiment, the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b are shown only in a single-turn coil structure. It should be noted that, in practical applications, the configuration of the inductive coupling coil includes various forms, such as a spiral type, a multi-turn coil structure, and the like. In the present embodiment, the self-inductive coil 2121 is also a single-turn coil.

圖3是本發明的原理示意圖,其是從腔室頂部往下看的俯視圖。其中,俯視圖中三個同心圓從裡到外分別為中心線圈2101a、自感應線圈2121、週邊線圈2101b。如圖所示,中心線圈2101a的電流方向為順時針方向,根據右手定律,其所能產生的磁場方向是垂直紙面向裡(圖3中以「叉」示出),其產生的磁場主要決定基片的中心區域磁場強度。同理,週邊線圈2101b的電流方向也必然為順時針方向,其所能產生的磁場方向是垂直紙面向裡(圖3中以「叉」示出),其產生的磁場主要決定基片的週邊區域磁場強度。根據法拉第定律,位於中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b之間的自感應線圈2121為單圈線圈結構,會感應與中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b電流方向相反的逆時針方向電流,從而形成垂直紙面向外的磁場。在圖2所示的中心線圈2101a、週邊線圈2101b和自感應線圈2121附近標記了其分別產生的磁場C1、C2、C3,所述磁場C1、C2、C3箭頭方向指示了中心線圈2101a、週邊線圈2101b和自感應線圈2121分別產生的磁場方向。如圖2所示,中心線圈2101a、週邊線圈2101b產生的電場方向是向下的,分別對應於基片W的中心區域和週邊區域,從而能引導等離子體轟擊基片W表面並與基片W表面反應完成製程。單圈線圈結構的自感應線圈2121產生的反應磁場方向與中心線圈2101a、週邊線圈2101b產生的電場方向相反,是向上的。在自感應線圈2121和中心線圈2101a以及週邊線圈2101b的相鄰區域,不論是它們產生的方向豎直朝上或朝下的磁場強度都趨於減弱,在它們的臨界區域電場方向更趨於0,從而能夠有效地隔離中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b之間的相互串擾。換言之,本發明相當於將自感應線圈2121覆蓋的基片W對應的中心區域和週邊區域的等離子體密度的調節過程相互隔離,從而改善腔室內部的磁場均一性(即等離子體分佈均一性),以實現基片製程的均一性Figure 3 is a schematic illustration of the principles of the present invention as seen from below the top of the chamber. The three concentric circles in the top view are the center coil 2101a, the self-inducting coil 2121, and the peripheral coil 2101b from the inside to the outside. As shown in the figure, the current direction of the center coil 2101a is clockwise. According to the right-hand law, the direction of the magnetic field that can be generated is the vertical paper surface (shown as "fork" in Fig. 3), and the magnetic field generated is mainly determined. The magnetic field strength of the central region of the substrate. Similarly, the current direction of the peripheral coil 2101b is also necessarily clockwise, and the direction of the magnetic field that can be generated is the vertical paper surface (shown as "fork" in FIG. 3), and the magnetic field generated mainly determines the periphery of the substrate. Regional magnetic field strength. According to Faraday's law, the self-inducting coil 2121 located between the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b is a single-turn coil structure, and induces a counterclockwise current opposite to the current direction of the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b, thereby forming a vertical paper facing outward. Magnetic field. The magnetic fields C1, C2, and C3 respectively generated in the vicinity of the center coil 2101a, the peripheral coil 2101b, and the self-inducting coil 2121 shown in FIG. 2 indicate the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil in the directions of the arrows C1, C2, and C3. The direction of the magnetic field generated by 2101b and self-inductive coil 2121, respectively. As shown in FIG. 2, the direction of the electric field generated by the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b is downward, corresponding to the central area and the peripheral area of the substrate W, respectively, so as to guide the plasma to bombard the surface of the substrate W and the substrate W. The surface reaction completes the process. The direction of the reaction magnetic field generated by the self-inducting coil 2121 of the single-turn coil structure is opposite to the direction of the electric field generated by the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b, and is upward. In the adjacent regions of the self-inducting coil 2121 and the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b, the magnetic field strengths which are vertically upward or downward in the direction in which they are generated tend to weaken, and the electric field direction tends to be 0 in their critical regions. Thereby, mutual crosstalk between the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b can be effectively isolated. In other words, the present invention is equivalent to isolating the plasma density adjustment process of the central region and the peripheral region corresponding to the substrate W covered by the induction coil 2121, thereby improving the uniformity of the magnetic field inside the chamber (ie, plasma distribution uniformity). To achieve uniformity of the substrate process

圖4是根據本發明又一具體實施例的電感耦合等離子體處理裝置的結構示意圖。本實施例是一個變形例,其中,自感應線圈2122是多圈線圈結構,具體地,相當於圖2所示的實施例的單圈閉合線圈的簡單平行累加,相互之間並無連接關係。如圖4所示,自感應線圈2122是由三圈閉合單圈線圈組合而成的,三圈線圈都會產生與中心線圈2102a和週邊線圈2102b相反的感應電流,從而產生比圖2所示的單層線圈更強的感應磁場。本實施例的多圈線圈結構在其他條件不變的情況下,隔離效果更好,腔室內的等離子體分佈更加均勻。然而,這樣的設置會佔用較多的腔室空間。4 is a schematic structural view of an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus according to still another embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is a modification in which the self-inductive coil 2122 is a multi-turn coil structure, specifically, a simple parallel accumulation corresponding to the single-turn closed coil of the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, and has no connection relationship with each other. As shown in FIG. 4, the self-inductive coil 2122 is composed of three closed-loop single-turn coils, and the three-turn coils generate an opposite current to the central coil 2102a and the peripheral coil 2102b, thereby generating a single ratio as shown in FIG. The layer coil has a stronger induced magnetic field. The multi-turn coil structure of this embodiment has better isolation effect and uniform plasma distribution in the chamber under other conditions. However, such a setup would take up more room space.

需要說明的是,自感應線圈若為線圈結構,線圈的具體圈數越多,隔離能力自然越好,但是考慮到真空處理腔室的面積十分可貴,線圈圈數越少越節約成本。本領域技術人員應當理解,至於自感應線圈的具體線圈數量需要由所需隔離能力以及腔室面積權衡考慮。所述金屬線圈的圈數根據需要隔離的電場以及所述電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置的體積進行調整。It should be noted that if the self-inductive coil is a coil structure, the more the number of coils is, the better the isolation capability is naturally, but considering that the area of the vacuum processing chamber is very expensive, the fewer the number of coil turns, the more cost-saving. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the specific number of coils from the induction coil needs to be considered by the required isolation capability and chamber area tradeoffs. The number of turns of the metal coil is adjusted according to an electric field to be isolated and a volume of the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus.

The insulating top plate 204 of the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus 200 is provided with coils of three regions, which are a first coil 2104a, a second coil 2104b, and a third coil 2104c.

本領域技術人員應當理解,隔離裝置應當按照電感耦合等離子體處理裝置絕緣頂板上的線圈分區數量確定。線圈分區越多,隔離裝置也越多,隔離效果也更好,腔室內的等離子體分佈更加均勻。本發明適用於兩個線圈分區以上的電感耦合等離子體處理裝置。Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the isolation device should be determined in accordance with the number of coil segments on the insulating top plate of the inductively coupled plasma processing device. The more coils are partitioned, the more isolation devices are, the better the isolation effect is, and the plasma distribution in the chamber is more uniform. The invention is applicable to inductively coupled plasma processing devices above two coil sections.

圖6是根據本發明另一具體實施例的電感耦合等離子體處理裝置的結構示意圖。如圖6所示,本發明還可以在中心線圈2105a和週邊線圈2105b之間設置可移動的自感應線圈2125,以對中心線圈2105a和週邊線圈2105b產生的磁場進行相互隔離,並通過自感應線圈位置的移動實現隔離效果的最優化,消除了磁場間的相互干擾,改善了等離子體密度分佈的均勻性。具體地,在本實施例中,電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置200還包括可移動支架(未示出),以帶動所述自感應線圈2125在垂直於絕緣頂板204的方向移動,也即在圖6中所示的垂直方向移動。由於實際加工工藝和設備大小的限制,所述自感應線圈2125的大小是有限的,其高度與所述反應腔的高度成預定比例,因此在自感應線圈2125的圓筒開口處會有磁場的洩漏,仍然會導致線圈之間的相互干擾,本實施例的自感應線圈2125可以在垂直方向移動,使得在實際的使用和調節過程中,可以通過自感應線圈2125在垂直方向的位置的微調,使得洩漏的磁場之間的干擾對等離子體的分佈影響最小,實現最佳的隔離效果。FIG. 6 is a schematic structural view of an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the present invention can also provide a movable self-induction coil 2125 between the center coil 2105a and the peripheral coil 2105b to isolate the magnetic fields generated by the center coil 2105a and the peripheral coil 2105b from each other and through the self-inducting coil. The movement of the position optimizes the isolation effect, eliminates mutual interference between the magnetic fields, and improves the uniformity of the plasma density distribution. Specifically, in the embodiment, the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus 200 further includes a movable bracket (not shown) to drive the self-inductive coil 2125 to move in a direction perpendicular to the insulating top plate 204, that is, in the figure. Move in the vertical direction as shown in 6. Due to the limitations of the actual processing technology and equipment size, the size of the self-inducting coil 2125 is limited, and its height is proportional to the height of the reaction chamber, so that there is a magnetic field at the cylindrical opening of the self-inducting coil 2125. The leakage still causes mutual interference between the coils, and the self-inducting coil 2125 of the embodiment can be moved in the vertical direction, so that the fine adjustment of the position of the self-inducting coil 2125 in the vertical direction can be performed during actual use and adjustment. The interference between the leaked magnetic fields minimizes the influence of the plasma distribution and achieves the best isolation effect.

此外,本發明提供的自感應線圈連接有一冷卻裝置,用於冷卻所述自感應線圈自感應電流過程中所產生的熱量。示例性地,冷卻裝置可以包裹在作為自感應線圈的線圈週邊,並且在冷卻裝置中通入冷卻氣體/液體,並外連一冷卻氣體/液體循環裝置。再例如,將作為自感應線圈的線圈挖空成中空結構,並且在其中通入冷卻氣體/液體,並外連一冷卻氣體/液體循環裝置作為冷卻裝置使用。甚至,本發明可以在自感應線圈旁邊連接一吹風裝置作為冷卻裝置。本領域技術人員應當理解,冷卻裝置在習知技術中已有成熟的技術支援,本發明不限於以上任何示例性的冷卻裝置。為簡明起見,不再贅述。In addition, the self-inductive coil provided by the present invention is connected with a cooling device for cooling the heat generated during the self-induced current of the self-induced coil.

As shown in Fig. 7, the intensity of the magnetic field generated by the center coil 102a and the peripheral coil 102b is shown by the shading around it, and it is understood that crosstalk occurs in both of the regions a. The lower portion of Fig. 7 shows the intensity distribution of the plasma concentration above the substrate W in a circle and its color depth, wherein the darker the color, the larger the plasma concentration, and the lighter the color, the smaller the plasma concentration. As shown in Fig. 7, in the central region near the origin o of the substrate W and the edge region away from the origin o, the plasma concentration varies greatly, and the plasma concentration distribution on the surface of the substrate W is uniform. Poor, so the uniformity of the process is also relatively poor.

As shown in Fig. 9, the intensity of the magnetic field generated by the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b is shown by the shading around it, and it is understood that the mutual crosstalk between the center coil 2101a and the adjacent region b of the peripheral coil 2101b is greatly reduced. The magnetic field generated by the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b is isolated. The lower portion of Fig. 8 shows the intensity distribution of the plasma concentration above the substrate W in a circle and its color depth, wherein the darker the color, the larger the plasma concentration, and the lighter the color, the smaller the plasma concentration. As shown in Fig. 8, in the central region near the origin o of the substrate W and the edge region away from the origin o, the plasma concentration variation is not large, and the uniformity of the plasma concentration distribution on the surface of the substrate W is obtained. Greatly improved, so the uniformity of the process has been greatly improved.

本發明第二方面提供了一種電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置,其中,所述電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置包括本發明第一方面所述的自感應線圈。A second aspect of the invention provides an inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus, wherein the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus includes the self-inducting coil of the first aspect of the invention.

本發明協力廠商面提供了一種製造半導體基片的方法,其中,所述方法是在根據本發明第一方面所述的電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置中進行的。The method of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a semiconductor substrate, wherein the method is carried out in the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention.

如圖2所示,所述製造半導體基片的方法包括: 放置基片W於所述電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置200中的基台206上; 放置一自感應線圈2121到所述頂板上的中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b之間; 供應處理氣體到所述電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置的氣體注入器(未示出); 通過第一射頻電源2081a向所述中心線圈210a施加射頻能量,通過第二射頻電源2081b向所述週邊線圈210b施加射頻能量,以對基片W進行製程,並使得所述自感應線圈2121自感應出與和相鄰的中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b方向相反的電流,以產生和相鄰的中心線圈2101a和週邊線圈2101b方向相反的磁場,其中,所述自感應線圈2121是電浮地的。As shown in FIG. 2, the method of manufacturing a semiconductor substrate includes: placing a substrate W on a base 206 in the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus 200; placing a self-inducting coil 2121 onto the top plate Between the center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b; a gas injector (not shown) for supplying a process gas to the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus; applying radio frequency energy to the center coil 210a through the first RF power source 2081a, The second RF power source 2081b applies RF energy to the peripheral coil 210b to process the substrate W, and causes the self-induction coil 2121 to self-induced current opposite to the adjacent center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b. To generate a magnetic field opposite to the direction of the adjacent center coil 2101a and the peripheral coil 2101b, wherein the self-inductive coil 2121 is electrically floating.

需要說明的是,在習知技術中,電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置的自感應線圈一般是起到「抵擋」的作用。具體地,習知技術通常在電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置的電感耦合線圈之間設置一隔離擋板,例如隔離擋板以電磁遮罩材料製成,因此在隔離擋板的高度範圍內能夠有效阻擋相鄰電感耦合線圈的磁場線。並且,習知技術的隔離擋板通常是接地的,因此其水準方向的感應電流得到了有效遮罩,其電勢為零。而本發明的自感應線圈正是利用了這樣的感應電流,因此無須接地。此外,習知技術的隔離擋板通常具有預定高度,在預定高度範圍內,其相鄰電感耦合線圈之間的磁場線被有效隔離,但是一旦超出預定範圍以外,其相鄰電感耦合線圈之間的磁場線就會相互串擾。而眾所周知,真空處理腔室內部的面積非常珍貴,隔離擋板不可能達到較高高度,也就不能夠完全隔離相鄰電感耦合線圈。而本發明的自感應線圈由於能夠自感應與相鄰線圈幾乎等量的電流,因此可以自動地抵消相鄰線圈的串擾,所以不論其高度如何都能起到隔離相鄰線圈的作用,這更加說明了本發明的優越性。It should be noted that in the prior art, the self-inductive coil of the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus generally functions as a "resistance". Specifically, the prior art generally provides an isolation baffle between the inductive coupling coils of the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus, for example, the isolation baffle is made of an electromagnetic shielding material, and thus can be effective in the height range of the isolation baffle. Blocking the magnetic field lines of adjacent inductively coupled coils. Moreover, the isolation baffle of the prior art is usually grounded, so that the induced current in the horizontal direction is effectively masked and its potential is zero. The self-inductive coil of the present invention utilizes such induced current, so that no grounding is required. In addition, the isolation baffles of the prior art generally have a predetermined height, and the magnetic field lines between adjacent inductive coupling coils are effectively isolated within a predetermined height range, but if they are outside the predetermined range, between adjacent inductive coupling coils The magnetic field lines will cross each other. As is well known, the area inside the vacuum processing chamber is very precious, and the isolation baffle cannot reach a high height, and it is impossible to completely isolate the adjacent inductive coupling coil. However, since the self-inductive coil of the present invention can self-sensing almost the same amount of current as the adjacent coils, it can automatically cancel the crosstalk of the adjacent coils, so that regardless of its height, it can function to isolate adjacent coils, which is even more The advantages of the present invention are illustrated.

此外,本發明提供的用於電感耦合型等離子體處理裝置的自感應線圈無需外接任何的電源裝置或者接地端,只要其周圍有電感耦合線圈且所述電感耦合線圈通電並產生了電流,所述自感應線圈就會快速自動地產生與相鄰的電感耦合線圈方向相反的磁場,從而隔離相鄰電感耦合線圈的相互串擾。本領域技術人員應當理解,真空處理裝置中的體積非常珍貴,本發明提供的自感應線圈無需外接任何裝置節約了腔室體積,降低了成本,節約了資源。In addition, the self-inductive coil for the inductively coupled plasma processing apparatus provided by the present invention does not need to externally connect any power supply device or ground terminal as long as there is an inductive coupling coil around it and the inductive coupling coil is energized and generates a current. The self-inductive coil will quickly and automatically generate a magnetic field opposite to the direction of the adjacent inductive coupling coil, thereby isolating the mutual crosstalk of adjacent inductively coupled coils. Those skilled in the art should understand that the volume in the vacuum processing device is very precious, and the self-inductive coil provided by the invention saves the chamber volume, reduces the cost, and saves resources without externally connecting any device.

儘管本發明的內容已經通過上述優選實施例作了詳細介紹,但應當認識到上述的描述不應被認為是對本發明的限制。在本領域技術人員閱讀了上述內容後,對於本發明的多種修改和替代都將是顯而易見的。因此,本發明的保護範圍應由所附的請求項來限定。Although the present invention has been described in detail by the preferred embodiments thereof, it should be understood that the foregoing description should not be construed as limiting.
