〔實施發明之較佳形態〕[Preferable embodiment of the invention]
以下,基於圖式,詳細說明所揭示之實施形態。此外,本實施形態非限定。又,各實施形態可在不使處理內容矛盾之範圍內合宜組合。Hereinafter, based on the drawings, the disclosed embodiments will be described in detail. In addition, this embodiment is not limited. In addition, the embodiments can be combined as appropriate within a range that does not contradict processing contents.
>ALD中之潛伏的機制> 說明實施形態前,先說明ALD中之潛伏的機制。>The underlying mechanism in ALD> Before describing the implementation form, the latent mechanism in ALD will be described first.
圖2A至圖2D用以說明一般ALD的流程的一例。圖2A用以說明ALD中之前驅體氣體的化學吸附步驟。圖2B用以說明ALD中之前驅體氣體的氣滌步驟。圖2C用以說明ALD中之反應氣體所成之活性化步驟。圖2D用以說明ALD中之反應氣體的氣滌步驟。ALD,如圖2A至圖2D所示,通常包含下述四個步驟。 (1)化學吸附步驟,將配置在處理室內之處理對象(例如半導體基板)曝露於前驅體氣體(參照圖2A) (2)氣滌步驟,將殘留在處理室內之前驅體氣體加以氣滌(參照圖2B) (3)反應步驟,將配置在處理室內之處理對象曝露於反應氣體(參照圖2C) (4)氣滌步驟,將殘留在處理室內之反應氣體加以氣滌(參照圖2D) 此外,以下說明之中,(3)反應步驟,係使反應氣體電漿化而執行。ALD之中,重複執行上述步驟(1)至(4),將膜形成於處理對象上。此外,氣滌步驟(2)及(4)係任意步驟,不一定執行。2A to 2D are used to illustrate an example of a general ALD process. FIG. 2A is used to illustrate the chemical adsorption step of the precursor gas in ALD. FIG. 2B is used to illustrate the scrubbing step of the precursor gas in ALD. FIG. 2C is used to illustrate the activation step formed by the reaction gas in ALD. FIG. 2D is used to illustrate the step of scrubbing the reaction gas in ALD. ALD, as shown in FIGS. 2A to 2D, generally includes the following four steps. (1) Chemical adsorption step, exposing the processing object (for example, semiconductor substrate) arranged in the processing chamber to the precursor gas (refer to FIG. 2A) (2) Gas scrubbing step, scrub the precursor gas before remaining in the processing chamber (refer to Figure 2B) (3) In the reaction step, the treatment object arranged in the treatment chamber is exposed to the reaction gas (refer to FIG. 2C) (4) Gas scrubbing step, scrub the reaction gas remaining in the processing chamber (refer to Figure 2D) In addition, in the following description, (3) the reaction step is performed by plasmaizing the reaction gas. During ALD, the above steps (1) to (4) are repeatedly performed to form a film on the processing object. In addition, the air scrubbing steps (2) and (4) are arbitrary steps and are not necessarily performed.
ALD之中,可例如使用含矽氣體作為前驅體氣體、並使用含O氣體作為反應氣體,而將SiO2 膜沉積在處理對象上。此情形下,首先步驟(1)之中,將配置在處理室內之處理對象曝露於前驅體氣體即含矽氣體。如此一來,則含矽氣體化學吸附在處理對象的表面。未化學吸附在處理對象而殘存在處理室內的前驅體氣體,於步驟(2)被氣滌。其後,步驟(3)之中,使含O氣體電漿化,並使氧自由基與化學吸附在處理對象之含矽分子進行反應(矽氧化),而形成一層SiO2 膜。殘存在處理室內之含O氣體,於步驟(4)被氣滌。ALD基本上係逐層地形成膜,若處理對象上沒有原子所化學吸附的表面,則處理會停止,因此可自我限制形成保形的膜。In ALD, for example, a silicon-containing gas can be used as a precursor gas and an O-containing gas can be used as a reaction gas to deposit a SiO 2 film on the processing object. In this case, in the first step (1), the processing object arranged in the processing chamber is exposed to the precursor gas, that is, the silicon-containing gas. In this way, the silicon-containing gas is chemically adsorbed on the surface of the processing object. The precursor gas remaining in the processing chamber without being chemically adsorbed on the processing object is scrubbed in step (2). Thereafter, in step (3), the gas containing O is made into plasma, and oxygen radicals react with the silicon-containing molecules chemically adsorbed on the treatment object (silicon oxidation) to form a layer of SiO 2 film. The O-containing gas remaining in the treatment chamber is scrubbed in step (4). ALD basically forms a film layer by layer. If there is no surface to which the atoms are chemically adsorbed on the object to be processed, the process will be stopped, so the self-limiting formation of a conformal film is possible.
然而,當將前驅體氣體之化學吸附加以妨礙的因子(以下亦稱作抑制劑)存在處理對象表面上時,則步驟(1)之中,前驅體氣體不化學吸附在處理對象,而不進行ALD所成之成膜。將由於此等妨礙因子等而產生之成膜開始之延遲稱作潛伏。圖3A至圖3F係用以說明一實施形態之電漿處理方法中之圖(1)至(6)。However, when a factor that hinders the chemisorption of the precursor gas (hereinafter also referred to as an inhibitor) exists on the surface of the treatment object, then in step (1), the precursor gas is not chemically adsorbed on the treatment object and does not proceed Film formation by ALD. The delay in the start of film formation due to these obstructive factors is called latent. 3A to 3F are diagrams (1) to (6) for explaining the plasma processing method of one embodiment.
圖3A顯示使用CF(碳氟化合物)之化學氣相沉積(CVD:Chemical Vapor Deposition)等藉以在處理對象的表面上形成CF膜之狀態。圖3A中,利用黑圓表示氟原子(CF:共價鍵結於碳之氟原子)。又,利用白圓表示處理對象(基板)的原子。FIG. 3A shows a state where a CF film is formed on the surface of the processing object using chemical vapor deposition (CVD: Chemical Vapor Deposition) or the like using CF (fluorocarbon). In FIG. 3A, a black circle represents a fluorine atom (CF: fluorine atom covalently bonded to carbon). In addition, white circles indicate atoms to be processed (substrate).
圖3B顯示針對圖3A所示之處理對象而將ALD循環執行一次之狀態的一例。處理對象表面存在抑制劑即CF膜,因此未化學吸附前驅體氣體(含矽氣體),而不進行ALD所行之成膜。相反地,由於ALD循環中之利用氧電漿產生之氧自由基的影響,而從處理對象表面逐漸去除CF膜。FIG. 3B shows an example of a state where the ALD cycle is executed once for the processing object shown in FIG. 3A. A CF film is present on the surface of the object to be treated, so the precursor gas (silicon-containing gas) is not chemically adsorbed, and ALD does not perform film formation. On the contrary, due to the influence of oxygen radicals generated by using oxygen plasma in the ALD cycle, the CF film is gradually removed from the surface of the treatment object.
圖3C顯示針對圖3A所示之處理對象而將ALD循環執行5次之狀態下的一例。圖3C的例之中,已藉由5次ALD循環而去除CF膜全部。FIG. 3C shows an example in a state where the ALD cycle is executed five times for the processing object shown in FIG. 3A. In the example of FIG. 3C, all the CF films have been removed by 5 ALD cycles.
圖3D、圖3E、圖3F各自顯示針對圖3A所示之處理對象而將ALD循環執行6次、8次、10次之狀態下的一例。如圖3C所示,利用將ALD循環執行5次而去除CF膜,並使CF膜下的層露出。此狀態下之處理對象表面,存在前驅體氣體可化學吸附之物質,因此前驅體氣體進行化學吸附而與反應氣體反應,並如圖3D所示,開始成膜。其後,如圖3E、圖3F所示,每次執行ALD循環,則膜厚增加。圖3D、圖3E、圖3F中,自上起算第二層的圓表示含Si前驅體氣體,且最上的圓表示氧原子。FIGS. 3D, 3E, and 3F each show an example of a state in which the ALD cycle is executed 6 times, 8 times, and 10 times for the processing object shown in FIG. 3A. As shown in FIG. 3C, the CF film is removed by performing the ALD cycle five times, and the layer under the CF film is exposed. In the surface to be treated in this state, there is a substance that can be chemically adsorbed by the precursor gas. Therefore, the precursor gas undergoes chemical adsorption to react with the reaction gas, and as shown in FIG. 3D, film formation begins. Thereafter, as shown in FIGS. 3E and 3F, each time the ALD cycle is performed, the film thickness increases. In FIGS. 3D, 3E, and 3F, the circle of the second layer from the top represents the Si-containing precursor gas, and the uppermost circle represents the oxygen atom.
>X-Y圖案之控制> 然而,半導體裝置製造時,在基板上形成各樣圖案。例如,會有在一基板上形成複數之具有同樣形狀的開口部之情形。此情形下,開口部的尺寸之精密控制對半導體裝置的性能造成影響。>Control of X-Y pattern> However, when manufacturing semiconductor devices, various patterns are formed on the substrate. For example, a plurality of openings having the same shape may be formed on a substrate. In this case, the precise control of the size of the opening affects the performance of the semiconductor device.
圖4A用以說明形成於遮罩的開口部之尺寸控制。圖4A所示之基板S係藉由自對準型雙重圖案化來形成。因此,在基板S的表面,以各自不同種類的材料A(芯)、材料B(間隔件)、材料C(填充物)所形成之線條係依A、B、C、B、A、B、C、B、A之順序排列。以下,將以材料A形成之線條稱作線條A、以材料B形成之線條稱作線條B、以材料C形成之線條稱作線條C。在此,吾人考慮使用圖4A中以點線表示之形狀之遮罩來執行基板S的蝕刻。圖4A中顯示有:開口部O1、O2、O4、O5、O6、O7,形成為二個端部分別位在彼此有別的線條C上;以及開口部O3,形成為二個端部分別位在彼此有別的線條A上。此外,於說明的便宜上,將圖4A至圖4C所示之線條的長邊方向稱作X1方向,並將橫切線條之方向稱作Y1方向。FIG. 4A is used to explain the size control of the opening formed in the mask. The substrate S shown in FIG. 4A is formed by self-aligned double patterning. Therefore, on the surface of the substrate S, the lines formed by different materials A (core), B (spacers), and C (fillers) are formed according to A, B, C, B, A, B, The order of C, B, A is arranged. Hereinafter, the line formed with the material A is called line A, the line formed with the material B is called line B, and the line formed with the material C is called line C. Here, we consider using a mask of a shape indicated by a dotted line in FIG. 4A to perform etching of the substrate S. 4A shows: the openings O1, O2, O4, O5, O6, O7 are formed so that the two ends are located on lines C different from each other; and the opening O3 is formed as the two ends are respectively located On line A that is different from each other. For the convenience of description, the long-side direction of the lines shown in FIGS. 4A to 4C is referred to as the X1 direction, and the direction across the line is referred to as the Y1 direction.
於形成出如同圖4A所示之形狀的遮罩之情形下,其後藉由蝕刻形成之圖案的形狀亦無大問題。然而,定為如圖4B所示,遮罩的開口部係形成於從期望位置起於Y1方向上偏移的位置。圖4B用以說明形成於遮罩的開口部的一例。此情形下,當使用該遮罩而執行基板S的蝕刻時,則會有以下可能性:如圖4C所示,基板S上所形成之開口部的位置更往Y1方向偏移而不形成為將線條C加以連結。圖4C顯示使用圖4B的遮罩而進行蝕刻之情形下形成之圖案的一例。於形成有如若可調整途中形成之遮罩的開口部的尺寸圖4B所示之遮罩之情形下,為了不使如圖4C所示之不良狀況產生,,則方便。尤其,於如圖4A所示之形狀的遮罩之情形下,相較於開口部的短邊方向的尺寸控制而言,長邊方向的尺寸控制更加影響其後之配線形成。如上所述,有時將俯視下具有短邊與長邊之略矩形的開口部稱作X-Y圖案。In the case where a mask having a shape as shown in FIG. 4A is formed, the shape of the pattern formed by etching thereafter is not a big problem. However, as shown in FIG. 4B, the opening of the mask is formed at a position offset from the desired position in the Y1 direction. FIG. 4B is used to explain an example of an opening formed in the mask. In this case, when the etching of the substrate S is performed using the mask, there is a possibility that, as shown in FIG. 4C, the position of the opening formed on the substrate S is further shifted toward the Y1 direction without forming Connect line C. FIG. 4C shows an example of a pattern formed when etching is performed using the mask of FIG. 4B. In the case where the mask shown in FIG. 4B is formed if the size of the opening of the mask formed on the way can be adjusted, it is convenient in order not to cause the defect as shown in FIG. 4C. In particular, in the case of a mask having a shape as shown in FIG. 4A, the size control in the long-side direction affects the subsequent wiring formation more than the size control in the short-side direction of the opening. As described above, a slightly rectangular opening having a short side and a long side in plan view is sometimes referred to as an X-Y pattern.
圖5A用以說明X-Y圖案。圖5A係基板上所形成之X-Y圖案的局部上表面圖。圖5A所示之基板之中,俯視下略矩形之開口部係以排列複數個之狀態形成。複數之開口部具有約略同一尺寸。此外,X-Y圖案,不僅係俯視下約略矩形,亦可係俯視下約略橢圓狀。X-Y圖案定為俯視下正交之二方向(X方向、Y方向)中具有尺寸差之圖案。FIG. 5A is used to explain the X-Y pattern. FIG. 5A is a partial upper surface view of the X-Y pattern formed on the substrate. In the substrate shown in FIG. 5A, the slightly rectangular openings in a plan view are formed in a state where a plurality of openings are arranged. The plural openings have approximately the same size. In addition, the X-Y pattern is not only approximately rectangular in plan view but also approximately oval in plan view. The X-Y pattern is defined as a pattern having a size difference in two orthogonal directions (X direction and Y direction) in plan view.
圖5B用以說明X-Y圖案的尺寸控制例1。圖5C用以說明X-Y圖案的尺寸控制2。圖5B的例,係於維持短邊X的開口尺寸之情況下,縮小長邊Y的開口尺寸之控制例(X>Y收縮:以相較於X邊而言,Y邊的減少量更多之方式,縮小開口部)。圖5B的例,於X-Y圖案形成後,以Y邊變短之方式在基板上成膜。另一方面,圖5C的例,係於縮小短邊X的開口尺寸之情況下,維持長邊Y的開口尺寸之控制例(X>Y收縮:以相較於Y邊而言,X邊的減少量更多之方式,縮小開口部)。圖5C的例,於X-Y圖案形成後,以X邊變短之方式在基板上成膜。FIG. 5B is used to explain the size control example 1 of the X-Y pattern. FIG. 5C is used to explain the size control 2 of the X-Y pattern. The example of FIG. 5B is a control example of reducing the opening size of the long side Y while maintaining the opening size of the short side X (X>Y contraction: compared with the X side, the reduction of the Y side is more Way, narrow the opening). In the example of FIG. 5B, after the X-Y pattern is formed, a film is formed on the substrate so that the Y side becomes shorter. On the other hand, the example of FIG. 5C is an example of control to maintain the opening size of the long side Y when the opening size of the short side X is reduced (X>Y shrinkage: compared to the Y side, the X side The way to reduce the amount more, narrow the opening). In the example of FIG. 5C, after the X-Y pattern is formed, a film is formed on the substrate so that the X side becomes shorter.
為了不使圖4C所示之不良狀況產生,只要利用執行圖4B的遮罩的開口部之X>Y收縮(參照圖5C),而盡可能縮小開口部之Y邊的減少量即可。In order not to cause the defect shown in FIG. 4C, it is only necessary to use the X>Y contraction of the opening of the mask of FIG. 4B (see FIG. 5C), and to minimize the reduction of the Y side of the opening as much as possible.
>實施形態> 鑒於上述,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,使用於將具有因應於形成於基板上之圖案的狀態之膜厚差之第一膜利用CVD成膜後,採用使第一膜作為抑制劑而發揮功能之材料來進行ALD循環,而將第二膜加以成膜。電漿處理裝置,將例如使用載入效果而將具有膜厚差之第一膜利用CVD成膜。其後,當執行ALD循環時,則第一膜逐漸因電漿的影響而削減,但產生因應於第一膜的膜厚之潛伏時間。因此,在例如厚幅形成有第一膜之位置則薄幅形成第二膜,在薄幅形成有第一膜之位置則厚幅形成第二膜。如上所述,本實施形態之電漿處理裝置,使用潛伏與載入效果而實現精密尺寸控制。>Implementation> In view of the above, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment is used for forming a first film having a film thickness difference corresponding to a state of a pattern formed on a substrate by CVD, and using the first film as an inhibitor to function The material is used for ALD cycle, and the second film is formed. In the plasma processing apparatus, for example, a first film having a difference in film thickness is formed by CVD using a loading effect. Thereafter, when the ALD cycle is performed, the first film is gradually reduced due to the influence of the plasma, but a latent time corresponding to the film thickness of the first film is generated. Therefore, for example, where the first film is formed thickly, the second film is formed thinly, and where the first film is formed thinly, the second film is formed thickly. As described above, the plasma processing apparatus of this embodiment uses latent and loading effects to achieve precise dimensional control.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of a rough flow of the plasma processing method in the
首先,在電漿處理裝置10的腔室21內,載置處理對象(例如晶圓W)。電漿處理裝置10首先在處理對象的表面上形成遮罩層(步驟S61)。其次,電漿處理裝置10藉由蝕刻而在遮罩層形成圖案(步驟S62)。圖案例如包含具有X-Y圖案之開口部。在此,步驟S61及S62,亦可不在電漿處理裝置10內執行,而在其它裝置執行。例如,亦可於其它裝置將遮罩層與圖案形成於晶圓W後,使晶圓W移動至電漿處理裝置10的腔室21內而執行以下處理。First, in the
其次,電漿處理裝置10,從所形成之圖案之上,執行:CVD,其使用成膜而成為抑制劑之氣體(步驟S63,第一程序)。藉由CVD而形成厚度依處理對象上之圖案的形狀而異的第一膜(以下亦稱作抑制劑層)。其次,電漿處理裝置10,從第一膜之上將ALD循環執行預定次數(步驟S64,第二程序)。藉由ALD循環,而在處理對象上形成第二膜。其後,判斷電漿處理裝置10是否滿足預定條件(步驟S65)。當判斷為滿足預定條件(步驟S65,是)時,則電漿處理裝置10結束處理。另一方面,當判斷為未滿足預定條件(步驟S65,否)時,則電漿處理裝置10返回步驟S63而重複處理。此係一實施形態之電漿處理方法的大概流程。此外,亦可構成為於步驟S64之後執行其它處理。以下說明中,亦將自步驟S63至步驟S64為止之一次處理稱作一序列。Next, the
>第一膜的膜厚>
電漿處理裝置10藉由CVD而形成之成為抑制劑層之第一膜的膜厚,係由各種要因來決定。例如,可使用載入效果,藉以使電漿處理裝置10將第一膜形成為期望膜厚。載入效果係一種因圖案的疏密度而導致成膜之膜的膜厚等變動之現象。例如,因圖案自身的大小例如開口部的開口面積而導致成膜後的開口尺寸變動。又,因位在該圖案的周圍之圖案的形狀或配置而導致成膜後的開口尺寸變動。>Film thickness of the first film>
The thickness of the first film that becomes the inhibitor layer of the
吾人認為載入效果產生之理由之一,係因為由開口部的縱橫比決定氣體等成膜材料可自開口側而入侵至開口部內之角度,就結果而言,決定進入至開口部之成膜材料的量。圖7用以說明載入效果的一例。如圖7所示,處理對象上的開口部的縱橫比係小之情形下,材料的侵入角度(Ω)變大。另一方面,開口部的縱橫比係大之情形下,材料的侵入角度變小。因此,各開口部的成膜量因應於侵入角度而變動。就結果而言,小開口之X邊上之成膜量小於大開口之Y邊上之成膜量。I think that one of the reasons for the loading effect is because the angle of the opening determines the angle at which the film-forming material such as gas can infiltrate into the opening from the side of the opening, and as a result, the film formation into the opening is determined The amount of material. FIG. 7 is used to illustrate an example of the loading effect. As shown in FIG. 7, when the aspect ratio of the opening in the processing object is small, the intrusion angle (Ω) of the material becomes large. On the other hand, when the aspect ratio of the opening is large, the penetration angle of the material becomes small. Therefore, the film formation amount of each opening varies depending on the intrusion angle. In terms of results, the amount of film formation on the X side of the small opening is smaller than the amount of film formation on the Y side of the large opening.
如上所述,例如開口部的縱橫比越小,則第一膜的膜厚越厚。又例如,開口部的立體角越大,則第一膜的膜厚越厚。又例如,第一膜的膜厚因應於開口部的寬窄或深度而變動。例如,開口部越廣而淺則第一膜的膜厚越厚。又,第一膜的膜厚因應於處理對象上所形成之圖案的疏密、線徑與間距(L/S)等而變動。As described above, for example, the smaller the aspect ratio of the opening, the thicker the film thickness of the first film. For another example, the larger the solid angle of the opening, the thicker the film thickness of the first film. For another example, the film thickness of the first film varies depending on the width or depth of the opening. For example, the wider and shallower the opening, the thicker the first film. In addition, the film thickness of the first film varies depending on the density, line diameter and pitch (L/S) of the pattern formed on the processing object.
此外,實施形態之電漿處理所形成之第一膜的材料,只要係將第二膜之成膜加以妨礙的材料則不特別限定。例如,第一膜係疏水性的膜。又例如,第一膜係含有氟(F)的膜。又例如,第一膜係由含有碳氟化合物之氣體所形成之膜。又例如,第一膜係由不含氫之氣體所形成之膜。又例如,第一膜係將處理對象表面加以改質之改質膜。In addition, the material of the first film formed by the plasma treatment of the embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it prevents the film formation of the second film. For example, the first film is a hydrophobic film. For another example, the first film is a film containing fluorine (F). For another example, the first film is a film formed of a gas containing fluorocarbon. For another example, the first film is a film formed of a hydrogen-free gas. For another example, the first film is a modified film that modifies the surface to be treated.
>第二膜的膜厚> 第二膜形成時,第一膜作為抑制劑層而發揮功能,妨礙前驅體氣體的化學吸附。因此,第二膜的膜厚因應於第一膜的膜厚而受控制。>Thickness of the second film> When the second film is formed, the first film functions as an inhibitor layer, preventing the chemical adsorption of the precursor gas. Therefore, the film thickness of the second film is controlled according to the film thickness of the first film.
例如,定為因上述載入效果而使第一膜薄幅形成於X邊上,且厚幅形成於Y邊上。此情形下,當從第一膜之上執行ALD循環而形成第二膜時,則X邊上的第一膜因ALD循環而被去除所消耗之時間短於Y邊上的第一膜因ALD循環而被去除所消耗之時間。如此一來,則在X邊上由ALD循環所成之第二膜之形成開始的時機早於在Y邊上由ALD循環所成之第二膜之形成開始的時機。就結果而言,若X邊及Y邊皆執行相同次數的ALD循環,則形成於X邊上之第二膜的膜厚厚於形成於Y邊上之第二膜的膜厚。For example, it is assumed that the first film has a thin width on the X side and a thick width on the Y side due to the above loading effect. In this case, when the ALD cycle is performed from above the first film to form the second film, the first film on the X side is removed due to the ALD cycle in less time than the first film on the Y side due to ALD The time it takes for the cycle to be removed. In this way, the timing of the formation of the second film formed by the ALD cycle on the X side is earlier than the timing of the formation of the second film formed by the ALD cycle on the Y side. As a result, if both the X side and the Y side perform the same number of ALD cycles, the film thickness of the second film formed on the X side is thicker than the film thickness of the second film formed on the Y side.
例如,將形成於Y邊上之第一膜的膜厚定為A、並將形成於X邊上之第一膜的膜厚定為B(其中A>B)。而且,將第二程序(步驟S64)之中隨一次ALD循環而被去除之第一膜的膜厚定為x、隨一次ALD循環而形成之第二膜的膜厚定為y。而且,定為A=10x、B=2x。此情形下,當於步驟S64執行ALD循環12次後,則形成於Y邊上之第二膜的膜厚成為2y、形成於X邊上之第二膜的膜厚成為10y。其中,於第一程序(步驟S63)形成之第一膜隨一次ALD循環一次被去除之量(膜厚)係與利用一次ALD循環而形成之第二膜的膜厚不同(x≠y)。因此,可考慮第二程序中之第一膜的去除量與第二膜的形成量,而調整第一程序及第二程序的處理條件例如處理時間或循環次數。For example, let the film thickness of the first film formed on the Y side be A, and let the film thickness of the first film formed on the X side be B (where A>B). Furthermore, the film thickness of the first film removed with one ALD cycle in the second procedure (step S64) is set to x, and the film thickness of the second film formed with one ALD cycle is set to y. Furthermore, A=10x and B=2x. In this case, after performing the ALD cycle 12 times in step S64, the film thickness of the second film formed on the Y side becomes 2y, and the film thickness of the second film formed on the X side becomes 10y. The amount (film thickness) of the first film formed in the first procedure (step S63) removed with one ALD cycle is different from the film thickness of the second film formed by one ALD cycle (x≠y). Therefore, the amount of removal of the first film and the amount of formation of the second film in the second procedure can be considered, and the processing conditions such as the processing time or the number of cycles of the first procedure and the second procedure can be adjusted.
因此,若可使用載入效果而將與圖5B的基板上所形成之膜係同樣形狀的抑制劑層加以形成,則可藉由其後之ALD循環而實現X>Y收縮。又,若可將與圖5C的基板上所形成之膜係同樣形狀的抑制劑層加以形成,則可藉由其後之ALD循環而實現X>Y收縮。Therefore, if the loading effect can be used to form an inhibitor layer of the same shape as the film formed on the substrate of FIG. 5B, X>Y shrinkage can be achieved by subsequent ALD cycles. In addition, if an inhibitor layer having the same shape as the film formed on the substrate of FIG. 5C can be formed, X>Y contraction can be achieved by the subsequent ALD cycle.
圖8A及圖8B用以說明藉由一實施形態之電漿處理方法而獲得之X>Y收縮效果。圖8A概略性顯示將圖6所示之步驟S63及S64重複三次而在X邊形成第二膜之狀態。又,圖8B概略性顯示將圖6所示之步驟S63及S64重複3次而在Y邊形成第二膜之狀態。於任一情形下,皆於步驟S63執行一次CVD而形成CF膜後,而於步驟S64重複執行預定次數之ALD循環,並將此步驟S63與步驟S64之序列重複三次來執行。8A and 8B are used to explain the X>Y shrinkage effect obtained by the plasma processing method of an embodiment. FIG. 8A schematically shows a state where steps S63 and S64 shown in FIG. 6 are repeated three times to form a second film on the X side. In addition, FIG. 8B schematically shows a state where steps S63 and S64 shown in FIG. 6 are repeated three times to form a second film on the Y side. In any case, after performing CVD once to form a CF film in step S63, repeating the predetermined number of ALD cycles in step S64, and repeating the sequence of steps S63 and S64 three times.
如圖8A所示,X邊之中,藉由夾著X邊而相向之側壁上所形成之第二膜,而使X邊的長度平均減少8.12奈米[nm]。亦即,側壁上形成有平均8.12奈米之第二膜。另一方面,Y邊之中,藉由夾著Y邊而相向之側壁上所形成之第二膜,而使Y邊的長度平均減少6.37奈米。亦即,側壁上形成有平均6.37奈米的第二膜。吾人由圖8A及圖8B而知悉:可利用重複執行步驟S63及S64,而於使X邊的開口尺寸相較於Y邊的開口尺寸而言大程度減少之情況下,使兩者的開口尺寸減少。亦即,吾人知悉可實現X>Y收縮。又,可藉由進一步增加步驟S63及S64的執行次數,來增加X>Y收縮效果。As shown in FIG. 8A, among the X-sides, the length of the X-side is reduced by an average of 8.12 nanometers [nm] by the second film formed on the opposing side walls sandwiching the X-side. That is, a second film with an average of 8.12 nm is formed on the sidewall. On the other hand, among the Y side, the length of the Y side is reduced by an average of 6.37 nm by the second film formed on the side wall facing the Y side. That is, a second film with an average of 6.37 nm is formed on the side wall. I know from FIGS. 8A and 8B that steps S63 and S64 can be performed repeatedly, and when the opening size of the X side is greatly reduced compared to the opening size of the Y side, the opening size of both cut back. That is, I know that X>Y contraction can be achieved. Furthermore, the X>Y contraction effect can be increased by further increasing the number of executions of steps S63 and S64.
>基板其它材料例> 本實施形態之電漿處理方法可應用於以各樣材料形成之處理對象。>Examples of other substrate materials> The plasma processing method of this embodiment can be applied to processing objects formed of various materials.
圖9顯示將本實施形態的電漿處理方法加以應用之處理對象的材料組合。在此,定為針對在基板上依順序形成有被蝕刻層與遮罩之處理對象,為了遮罩之尺寸控制而應用本實施形態的電漿處理方法來形成第二膜。此外,被蝕刻層與基板之間亦可形成停止層。FIG. 9 shows a combination of materials to be processed by applying the plasma processing method of this embodiment. Here, it is assumed that for the processing target in which the etched layer and the mask are sequentially formed on the substrate, the plasma processing method of this embodiment is applied to form the second film in order to control the size of the mask. In addition, a stop layer may be formed between the etched layer and the substrate.
此情形下,例如,可在矽基板上形成氮化矽(SiN)、矽(Si)或矽鍺(SiGe)之被蝕刻層,並形成二氧化矽(SiO2 )之遮罩。此情形下,可將二氧化矽(SiO2 )作為第二膜使用。In this case, for example, an etched layer of silicon nitride (SiN), silicon (Si), or silicon germanium (SiGe) may be formed on a silicon substrate, and a mask of silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) may be formed. In this case, silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) can be used as the second film.
又,可在被蝕刻層使用SiO2 ,在遮罩使用SiN,並在第二膜使用SiN。又,可在被蝕刻層使用SiO2 ,在遮罩使用氮化鈦(TiN)、碳化鎢(WC)或二氧化鋯(ZrO2 )。此情形下,可將TiN或WC作為第二膜使用。In addition, SiO 2 may be used for the layer to be etched, SiN may be used for the mask, and SiN may be used for the second film. In addition, SiO 2 may be used for the etched layer, and titanium nitride (TiN), tungsten carbide (WC), or zirconium dioxide (ZrO 2 ) may be used for the mask. In this case, TiN or WC can be used as the second film.
任一材料組合之情形下,皆可使用CCP等裝置而實現處理。In the case of any combination of materials, devices such as CCP can be used for processing.
又,上述實施形態的電漿處理方法,不只應用於基板上依序形成有被蝕刻層與遮罩之處理對象,亦可應用於其它構成之處理對象。例如,可應用於矽基板上依序形成有被蝕刻層、有機層、含矽反射防止層等、且在反射防止層上形成有光阻等遮罩層之處理對象。此情形下,亦可例如在基板上插設藉由多重圖案化形成之層。而且,亦可使用上述實施形態之電漿處理方法而調整遮罩的圖案尺寸,俾使形成於遮罩之圖案係與藉由多重圖案化而形成之層的各線條整齊排列。上述實施形態的電漿處理方法可用以藉由調整遮罩的圖案尺寸,來精密調整將通孔或接觸部加以形成之位置。In addition, the plasma processing method of the above-described embodiment is not only applicable to processing objects in which an etched layer and a mask are sequentially formed on a substrate, but also applicable to processing objects of other structures. For example, it can be applied to a processing object in which an etched layer, an organic layer, a silicon-containing antireflection layer, etc. are sequentially formed on a silicon substrate, and a mask layer such as a photoresist is formed on the antireflection layer. In this case, for example, a layer formed by multiple patterning may be interposed on the substrate. Furthermore, the plasma processing method of the above embodiment may be used to adjust the pattern size of the mask so that the pattern formed on the mask is aligned with the lines of the layer formed by multiple patterning. The plasma processing method of the above embodiment can be used to precisely adjust the position where the through hole or the contact portion is formed by adjusting the pattern size of the mask.
>實施形態的效果> 上述實施形態之電漿處理方法包含第一程序與第二程序。第一程序之中,電漿處理裝置,在處理對象所具有之開口部的側壁上,形成厚度依相向之成對側壁彼此之間隔而異的第一膜。第一程序後的第二程序之中,電漿處理裝置,將成膜循環施行一次以上,並形成厚度依前述相向之成對側壁彼此之間隔而異的第二膜。因此,電漿處理裝置,可在處理對象上,形成具有因應於圖案的狀態之膜厚差之第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,即使於不易利用一次程序而形成具有期望膜厚差之第二膜之情形下,亦可使用載入效果或潛伏而形成具有期望膜厚差之第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置可實現形成於基板上之圖案之精密尺寸控制。>Effect of implementation form> The plasma processing method of the above embodiment includes a first program and a second program. In the first procedure, the plasma processing apparatus forms a first film on the side wall of the opening portion of the processing object whose thickness varies according to the interval between the pair of side walls facing each other. In the second process after the first process, the plasma processing device circulates the film formation more than once, and forms a second film with a thickness that varies according to the spacing between the pair of opposing side walls. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus can form a second film having a film thickness difference according to the state of the pattern on the processing object. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can form a second film having a desired film thickness difference using a loading effect or latent even in a case where it is difficult to form a second film having a desired film thickness difference using a single procedure . Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can realize precise dimensional control of the pattern formed on the substrate.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法之中,電漿處理裝置,於第一程序,在以比處理對象上所形成之成對第一側壁更窄的間隔相向之成對第二側壁上,形成比成對第一側壁上所形成之第一膜更薄的第一膜。又,電漿處理裝置,於第二程序,在成對第二側壁上,形成比成對第一側壁上所形成之第二膜更厚之第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可依照空著不同間隔相向之成對側壁每者,調整膜厚而進行尺寸控制,可提昇圖案精度。Also, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus is formed on the pair of second side walls facing each other at a narrower interval than the pair of first side walls formed on the processing target in the first procedure A first film that is thinner than the first film formed on the pair of first side walls. Furthermore, in the plasma processing apparatus, in the second procedure, a second film that is thicker than the second film formed on the pair of first side walls is formed on the pair of second side walls. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can adjust the film thickness and size control according to each of the paired side walls facing each other at different intervals, which can improve the pattern accuracy.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法之中,電漿處理裝置,於第一程序形成含有成膜循環中之第二膜之形成的妨礙因子之成分之第一膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可藉由第一膜的膜厚,而精密控制其後形成之第二膜的膜厚。Further, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus forms the first film containing the component of the hindering factor for the formation of the second film in the film formation cycle in the first step. Therefore, in the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment, the film thickness of the second film formed thereafter can be precisely controlled by the film thickness of the first film.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法之中,電漿處理裝置,於第一程序,形成疏水性之第一膜。又,電漿處理裝置,於第一程序,形成含有氟(F)之第一膜。又,電漿處理裝置,於第一程序,藉由不含氫、而含有碳氟化合物(CF)之氣體來形成第一膜。如同上述,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可將產生第二膜之潛伏之材料加以選擇來形成第一膜,並可精密控制圖案的尺寸。Furthermore, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus forms a hydrophobic first film in the first step. In addition, the plasma processing apparatus forms the first film containing fluorine (F) in the first step. In addition, in the plasma processing apparatus, in the first process, the first film is formed by a gas containing no hydrogen but containing fluorocarbon (CF). As described above, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can select the latent material that generates the second film to form the first film, and can precisely control the size of the pattern.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法之中,電漿處理裝置,於第二程序之中,係於去除第一膜之後,形成第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可藉由第一膜的膜厚來精密控制第二膜的膜厚。Furthermore, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus forms the second film after removing the first film in the second procedure. Therefore, in the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment, the film thickness of the second film can be precisely controlled by the film thickness of the first film.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法之中,電漿處理裝置將包含第一程序及第二程序之序列重複執行一次以上。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可藉由調整重複序列之次數,來精密控制所形成之第二膜的膜厚。Furthermore, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus repeatedly executes the sequence including the first program and the second program more than once. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can precisely control the film thickness of the formed second film by adjusting the number of repeated sequences.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法包含:第三程序,於第二程序之後,將第二膜作為遮罩而進行蝕刻。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可於精密控制遮罩即第二膜的尺寸之後,執行蝕刻,並可精密控制由蝕刻所形成之圖案的尺寸。In addition, the plasma processing method of the embodiment includes a third procedure, and after the second procedure, the second film is used as a mask for etching. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can perform etching after precisely controlling the size of the mask, that is, the second film, and can precisely control the size of the pattern formed by the etching.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法中之處理對象的成對側壁,至少包含一部分曲面。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,不僅將直線性形成之圖案,亦可將曲線性形成之圖案的尺寸加以精密控制。In addition, the pair of side walls of the object to be processed in the plasma processing method of the embodiment includes at least a part of the curved surface. Therefore, in the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment, not only the linearly formed pattern but also the size of the curvedly formed pattern can be precisely controlled.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法,於第二程序,將原子層沉積循環施行一次以上,而形成第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可使用原子層沉積的自我限制性而容易控制第二膜的膜厚。Moreover, in the plasma processing method of the embodiment, in the second procedure, the atomic layer deposition cycle is performed more than once to form the second film. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can easily control the film thickness of the second film using self-limiting atomic layer deposition.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法的第一程序之中,電漿處理裝置,藉由化學氣相沉積或電漿化學氣相沉積來形成第一膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置可有效率執行處理。Furthermore, in the first procedure of the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus forms the first film by chemical vapor deposition or plasma chemical vapor deposition. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can efficiently perform processing.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法的第一程序之中,電漿處理裝置形成具有因應於處理對象上所形成之開口部的縱橫比、立體角、開口部的寬窄及深度、開口部的面積、圖案的疏密、線徑與間距中之至少一者之厚度差之第一膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理裝置,可使用因各樣要因而產生之載入效果,來精密控制圖案的尺寸。Furthermore, in the first procedure of the plasma processing method of the embodiment, the plasma processing apparatus is formed to have an aspect ratio, a solid angle, a width and depth of the opening, and an area of the opening corresponding to the opening formed on the processing object 1. A first film with a difference in thickness between at least one of the density of the pattern, the diameter of the wire, and the pitch. Therefore, the plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment can precisely control the size of the pattern by using the loading effect generated due to various reasons.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法,具備:成膜程序,在處理對象上將第一膜加以成膜;以及成膜循環執行程序,針對處理對象而執行成膜循環。而且,成膜循環係使用下者來執行:前驅體氣體,不化學吸附在第一膜的表面,而化學吸附在處理對象表面;以及反應氣體,進行電漿化而產生將第一膜加以去除之自由基。因此,實施形態之電漿處理方法,可使用第一膜而控制成膜循環中形成之膜的膜厚。因此,實施形態之電漿處理方法可精密控制圖案的尺寸。In addition, the plasma processing method of the embodiment includes a film forming program that forms the first film on the processing object; and a film forming cycle execution program that executes the film forming cycle for the processing object. In addition, the film formation cycle is performed using the following: precursor gas, which is not chemically adsorbed on the surface of the first film, but chemically adsorbed on the surface of the processing target; and reactive gas, which is generated by plasmasis to remove the first film Of free radicals. Therefore, the plasma processing method of the embodiment can use the first film to control the film thickness of the film formed in the film formation cycle. Therefore, the plasma processing method of the embodiment can precisely control the size of the pattern.
又,實施形態之電漿處理方法,執行成膜循環,前述成膜循環包含藉由同一氣體同時執行以下處理之程序:去除處理,在處理對象上,以第一預定量去除第一膜;以及沉積處理,在處理對象上,以與第一預定量不同之第二預定量沉積第二膜。因此,實施形態之電漿處理方法,可於一程序實現膜之去除與膜之形成兩個不同處理。因此,實施形態之電漿處理方法可效率良好地控制圖案的尺寸。In addition, the plasma processing method of the embodiment executes a film formation cycle, and the foregoing film formation cycle includes a procedure of simultaneously performing the following processes with the same gas: a removal process, and removing the first film by a first predetermined amount on the processing object; and In the deposition process, the second film is deposited in a second predetermined amount different from the first predetermined amount on the processing object. Therefore, the plasma processing method of the embodiment can realize two different processes of film removal and film formation in one procedure. Therefore, the plasma processing method of the embodiment can efficiently control the size of the pattern.
>變形例1> 此外,上述實施形態之中,藉由第一膜的膜厚而控制成膜循環例如ALD循環的潛伏時間。亦可取而代之,例如將第一膜的膜厚定為固定,並在第一膜施行ALD循環所行之改質處理,而使第二膜的膜厚變動。>Modification 1> In addition, in the above embodiment, the latent time of the film formation cycle, for example, the ALD cycle, is controlled by the thickness of the first film. Alternatively, for example, the film thickness of the first film may be fixed, and the first film may be modified by the ALD cycle to change the film thickness of the second film.
例如,圖6的步驟S63之中,代替形成厚度依相向之成對側壁彼此之間隔而異的第一膜,而在處理對象上形成具有均勻厚度之第一膜。此時,成膜手段可使用熱CVD(thermal chemical vapor deposition;熱化學氣相沉積)、供給二種有機氣體而藉由溫度控制進行聚合反應而進行成膜之手段等。For example, in step S63 of FIG. 6, instead of forming a first film whose thickness varies depending on the interval between the opposing pair of side walls, a first film having a uniform thickness is formed on the processing object. In this case, the film forming means may use thermal CVD (thermal chemical vapor deposition), a method of supplying two kinds of organic gases, and performing a polymerization reaction by temperature control to form a film, etc.
而且,圖6的步驟S64之中,執行使用載入效果之改質處理。例如,ALD循環中,於化學吸附步驟(參照圖2A),將含矽氣體作為前驅體氣體供給至腔室21。而且,於反應步驟(參照圖2C),將碳氟化合物(Cx
Fy
例如C4
F6
)與含O氣體作為反應氣體而供給至腔室21。亦可於化學吸附步驟與反應步驟各自之後,執行將腔室21內加以氣滌之氣滌步驟。In addition, in step S64 of FIG. 6, the modification process using the loading effect is executed. For example, in the ALD cycle, in the chemical adsorption step (refer to FIG. 2A ), silicon-containing gas is supplied to the
此情形下,在形成有第一膜之處,於化學吸附步驟之中含矽氣體不進行化學吸附,且於反應步驟受到含O電漿去除第一膜。又,反應步驟之中,反應氣體所含之碳氟化合物沉積在第一膜上。另一方面,在第一膜(及沉積在第一膜上之碳氟化合物的膜)受到含O電漿去除之處,於化學吸附步驟中,含矽氣體化學進行吸附,並於反應步驟中,氧自由基與含矽分子進行反應而形成SiO2 膜。In this case, where the first film is formed, the silicon-containing gas is not chemically adsorbed in the chemical adsorption step, and the first film is removed by the O-containing plasma in the reaction step. In addition, in the reaction step, the fluorocarbon contained in the reaction gas is deposited on the first film. On the other hand, where the first film (and the fluorocarbon film deposited on the first film) is removed by the plasma containing O, in the chemical adsorption step, the silicon-containing gas is chemically adsorbed and in the reaction step Oxygen radicals react with silicon-containing molecules to form a SiO 2 film.
反應步驟之中,處理對象上的圖案中,Cx Fy 不易進入圖案緊密的部分,且Cx Fy 容易進入圖案鬆散的部分。因此,圖案越緊密的部分(X邊)則Cx Fy 所成之成膜量越少,且圖案越鬆散的部分(Y邊)則Cx Fy 所行之成膜量越多。又,含O電漿不易進入圖案緊密的部分,且含O電漿容易進入圖案鬆散的部分。因此,圖案越緊密的部分(X邊)則由含O氣體產生之含O電漿所成之第一膜的去除量越少,且圖案越鬆散的部分(Y邊)則第一膜的去除量越多。可調整反應氣體所含之碳氟化合物與含O氣體之比率,而使X邊上之第一膜的去除速度快於Y邊上之第一膜的去除速度,藉以獲得X>Y收縮效果(參照圖5C)。因此,藉由變形例之電漿處理方法,亦可獲得X>Y收縮效果(參照圖5C)。In the reaction step, among the patterns on the processing object, C x F y does not easily enter the dense part of the pattern, and C x F y easily enters the loose part of the pattern. Therefore, the tighter the portion of the pattern (X side), the smaller the amount of film formation by C x F y , and the more loose the portion of the pattern (Y side), the more film formation by C x F y . In addition, the O-containing plasma is unlikely to enter the portion where the pattern is tight, and the O-containing plasma is likely to enter the portion where the pattern is loose. Therefore, the tighter the portion of the pattern (X side), the less the amount of removal of the first film formed by the O-containing plasma generated by the O-containing gas, and the more loose part of the pattern (Y side), the first film is removed. The more the amount. The ratio of the fluorocarbon contained in the reaction gas to the O-containing gas can be adjusted so that the removal speed of the first film on the X side is faster than the removal speed of the first film on the Y side, so as to obtain the shrinkage effect of X>Y ( (See Figure 5C). Therefore, the plasma treatment method of the modified example can also obtain the X>Y shrinkage effect (see FIG. 5C).
>變形例2> 又,上述實施形態之中,定為:ALD循環的處理條件為了完結處理對象的表面上之自我限制吸附、反應而設有充份的處理時間。但不限於此,亦可將ALD循環的處理條件設定為不完結處理對象的表面上之自我限制吸附、反應。例如,亦可將所謂不飽和ALD(以下亦稱作亞保形ALD)使用於第二程序。亞保形ALD,可利用例如以下二態樣實現。 (1)使前驅物吸附在處理對象的表面全體。控制為此後導入之反應氣體係不遍佈處理對象的表面全體。 (2)使前驅物僅吸附在處理對象的表面的一部。其後導入之反應氣體,僅在吸附有前驅物之表面部分進行成膜。可使用亞保形ALD,而將第二膜形成為第二膜的厚度係從頂部朝底部而逐漸減少。>Variation 2> In addition, in the above-mentioned embodiment, it is determined that the processing conditions of the ALD cycle are provided with sufficient processing time in order to complete the self-limiting adsorption and reaction on the surface of the processing object. However, it is not limited to this, and the processing conditions of the ALD cycle may also be set to self-limiting adsorption and reaction on the surface of the endless processing object. For example, so-called unsaturated ALD (hereinafter also referred to as sub-conformal ALD) may be used for the second procedure. Sub-conformal ALD can be realized by, for example, the following two aspects. (1) The precursor is adsorbed on the entire surface of the processing object. Control the reaction gas system introduced afterwards so as not to cover the entire surface of the object to be processed. (2) The precursor is adsorbed on only a part of the surface of the processing object. The reaction gas introduced thereafter is formed into a film only on the surface portion where the precursor is adsorbed. Subconformal ALD can be used, and the second film is formed so that the thickness of the second film gradually decreases from the top to the bottom.
圖10A用以說明變形例2之電漿處理方法的第一程序。圖10B用以說明變形例2之電漿處理方法的第二程序。圖10A所示之X-Y圖案設係設定為與圖5B所示之X-Y圖案同樣,但短邊X的成膜量少於圖5B的例。FIG. 10A is for explaining the first procedure of the plasma processing method of Modification 2. FIG. FIG. 10B is for explaining the second procedure of the plasma processing method of Modification 2. FIG. The X-Y pattern shown in FIG. 10A is set to be the same as the X-Y pattern shown in FIG. 5B, but the film formation amount of the short side X is smaller than the example of FIG. 5B.
變形例2的第一程序,使用CVD,而進行下述控制:於維持短邊X的開口尺寸之情況下,縮小長邊Y的開口尺寸(X>Y收縮)。其後,於第二程序,使用亞保形ALD,而進行下述控制:於縮小短邊X的開口尺寸之情況下,維持長邊Y的開口尺寸(X>Y收縮)。此時,短邊X上,將第二膜形成為藉由不飽和ALD而使膜厚從頂部至底部為止逐漸變薄。又,短邊X的底部未將第二膜加以成膜。如上所述,可使用亞保形ALD,藉以抑制往處理對象之底部的成膜量。又,使用亞保形ALD之情形下,亦維持下述關係:第一膜的膜厚越厚,則形成於相同部分之第二膜的膜厚越薄。因此,依據此電漿處理方法,可實現X-Y圖案的尺寸控制。The first procedure of Modification 2 uses CVD and performs the following control: while maintaining the opening size of the short side X, the opening size of the long side Y is reduced (X>Y shrinks). Thereafter, in the second procedure, using the sub-conformal ALD, the following control is performed: while reducing the opening size of the short side X, the opening size of the long side Y is maintained (X>Y contraction). At this time, on the short side X, the second film is formed to gradually become thinner from the top to the bottom by unsaturated ALD. In addition, the second film was not formed on the bottom of the short side X. As described above, sub-conformal ALD can be used to suppress the amount of film formation to the bottom of the processing object. In the case of using sub-conformal ALD, the following relationship is also maintained: the thicker the first film, the thinner the second film formed in the same portion. Therefore, according to this plasma processing method, the size control of the X-Y pattern can be realized.
如同變形例2,本實施形態之電漿處理方法,亦可第二程序之中,利用不完結處理對象的表面上之自我限制吸附或反應之處理條件,施行亞保形ALD循環一次以上來形成第二膜。因此,電漿處理方法,不僅控制X-Y圖案,可抑制圖案底部的成膜量,且能容易執行後續處理例如蝕刻。As in Modification 2, the plasma processing method of this embodiment can also be formed by performing a sub-conformal ALD cycle more than once in the second procedure using the self-limiting adsorption or reaction processing conditions on the surface of the incomplete processing object Second film. Therefore, the plasma processing method not only controls the X-Y pattern, can suppress the film formation amount at the bottom of the pattern, and can easily perform subsequent processing such as etching.
