Description of the invention (/) This invention is related to shielding signal lines in integrated circuits to prevent noise interference, and in particular It relates to a method of forming a grounded shield line beside a signal line. In very large scale integration (VLSI), metal interconnect structure is a very important part. Metal interconnect structures typically include metal wires and vias (vms). The purpose of the via is to connect the upper and lower metal wires. Complex integrated circuits can include several layers of metal interconnect structures. Metal wires in VLSI are commonly used to carry digital signals, analog signals, or bias power. The metal wires that carry signals are called signal wires. Because in VLSI and Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI), the space between signal lines is very small, the capacitive coupling between adjacent metal lines will create some noise or mutual interference. Crosstalk signals. As the size of the integrated circuit decreases straight down and the critical dimension decreases, the problems of capacitive coupling and noise between adjacent signal lines become more serious. A known method for shielding signal lines to prevent noise interference is to provide shielding lines on both sides of the signal lines. The shield line is usually completed at the same time as the signal line when the inner wiring of the deposited metal is etched. However, the shielded line is connected to a DC voltage (Vss or Vcc) ’, so compared to a weak AC signal, the shielded line is“ fee ground ”, that is, AC grounded. Therefore, the shield line is not connected to any input or output semiconductor element. In this conventional technique, 'each signal line needs two shielded lines insulated from the signal line to achieve the purpose of isolating noise' and therefore requires a large area. Signal line and cover 4 (1¾Read the back notice /} Fill this page), -0 This paper size applies the Chinese national standard () to the standard (2 丨 Ox) Α7 137 3798t \ vi'.d〇c / ^ ° 6 V. Description of the Invention (above) The size of the insulation space required between the shield wires is mainly limited by the resolution of the lithography process. For example, in the 0.25 μπm complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology, the separation distance between the signal line and the shielded line is about 0.3 μηι and because of the capacitive coupling between the signal line and the grounded shielded line, The capacitance between the two also increases with the decrease in the size of the element. In the circuit that requires # stomach speed, I do n’t particularly like the electricity between the ground and the ground. $ @ 合 ° Figure 1 shows the conventional shielding Isometric illustration of the method. The semiconductor substrate 101 may be a combination of the following: a silicon substrate, a transistor element, a logic element, a capacitor element, or any semiconductor element. These components need to be electrically connected to other semiconductor components or output / input circuits. The conventional dielectric layer 103 is used to isolate semiconductor circuits of different layers. The dielectric layer 103 is usually an interlayer dielectric (ILD) or an intermetal dielectric (IMD). The dielectric layer 103 may be made of borosilicate glass (BPSG), silicon oxide deposited using tetraethyl silicate (TEOS) as a gas source, phosphosilicate glass (PSG), silicon dioxide, and spin-on-glass (SOG) '' It is composed of a single layer of silicon nitride, aluminum oxide, or oxide, or any combination of these layers. For the present invention, the dielectric layer 103 is generally referred to as silicon oxide. The structure of a metal interconnect on the dielectric layer 103 is made of a conductive metal, such as aluminum, tungsten, polycrystalline silicon, or copper. The interconnect structure includes a network of metal wires and vias, and these interconnects connect semiconductor elements via contact windows below it. In the prior art, the metal interconnect includes at least a signal line 105 and a shield line 107. The shielded wire 107 is grounded by means of AC power, and the signal wire 05 carries communication telecommunications between components.

Description of the invention (彡) The signal line 105 is adjacent to each other. Generally, the space between the shield line 107 and the signal line 105 is slightly larger than the key size of the lithography. After the metal interconnect structure is completed, the shield line 107 There is also a layer of silicon oxide for insulation on the signal line 105. Therefore, the space between the shielding line 107 and the signal line 105 is filled with silicon oxide. The purpose of the present invention is to A method for manufacturing a shielded wire is provided, so that the shielded wire can be closer to the signal wire and has a lower capacitance. According to the purpose of the present invention, a method for manufacturing a shielded wire near a signal wire in a semiconductor device is proposed. The method includes depositing a silicon oxide layer on a signal line. The silicon oxide layer is etched to form a silicon oxide spacer on the sidewall of the signal line. A layer of metal is deposited on the signal line and the spacer to remove the top portion of the metal layer so that the surface of the remaining metal layer is lower than the upper surface of the signal line The remaining metal layer forms a shielding line, and then the silicon oxide spacer is removed. In order to make the above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, a preferred embodiment is given below and cooperates with all The drawings are described in detail as follows: Brief description of the drawings: Figure 1 shows a conventional technique for shielding signal lines in integrated circuits; Figures 2-7 show a preferred implementation of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, an insulating oxide sand 203 is formed on the substrate 201. The substrate 201 may include various kinds of semiconductor elements, and the elements need to be electrically connected to each other 'and are substantially similar to the substrate 101 of the above-mentioned FIG. 1. Similarly, the silicon oxide layer 203 is insulated to isolate different metal wires in the integrated circuit. A metal layer is formed on the silicon oxide layer 203, and the signal line 205 is formed by a conventional lithography etching process. For example, the method of manufacturing the signal line 205 may be to deposit a layer of aluminum, tungsten, or copper on the silicon oxide layer 203, and then form a patterned photoresist layer (not shown in the figure) over the metal layer to use the photoresist The layer is a mask to perform the etching step. As is well known in the general practice, this metal layer will also fill the interstitial window openings (not shown) in the silicon oxide layer 203, so that the signal lines 205 and the semiconductor elements located below them are electrically conductive.

Description of the invention (r ) Next, referring to Figure 3, a layer of borophosphosilicate glass 207 with a thickness of about 2000 A is deposited at 400 ° C by plasma chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). A rapid thermal process (RTP) can then be used to compact the borophosphosilicate glass 207. Next, referring to FIG. 4, a dry etching step is performed on 207 to form a structure of the partition wall 209 on the side wall of each signal line 205. The dry etching step can be performed by, for example, reactive ion etching (RIE). However, to those skilled in the art, not all signal lines 205 need to be shielded. In this case, a shield can be used to protect the signal lines 205 that do not need to be shielded, so that a borophosphosilicate glass spacer 209 is not formed on the side walls of these signal lines 205. Therefore, Fig. 4 mainly shows the area of the integrated circuit that needs to shield the signal line 205. Referring to FIG. 5, a metal layer 211 is deposited over the entire structure. The metal layer 211 is preferably about 5000 A thick, but at least as thick as the signal line 205 to be shielded. In addition, the material of the metal layer 211 is preferably metal tungsten, but other conductive materials may be used. As for the method of forming the metal layer 211, the chemical vapor deposition method is better than other methods for the trenches with small voids, such as physical vapor deposition, so it is better to use chemical vapor deposition for conformal ( conformal), and metal tungsten is a material in which trenching ability is very high. Then, referring to FIG. 6, a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) method is performed on the metal layer 211, and the uranium is slightly etched, and then stopped at the top of the spacer 209, so that the surface of the metal layer 211 is lower than The upper surface of the signal line 205.

Cl oc / 〇〇6 A7 H7 V. Description of the invention (6) Composed of different conductive materials, the honing rate of the two will be slightly different. This can ensure that when the spacer wall 209 is to be removed subsequently, the spacer wall 209 is exposed to facilitate its complete removal. Therefore, the honing step is most important to expose the upper end of the spacer 209. In the next steps, it will be understood that only in this way can the spacer 209 be completely removed. After the honing step is completed, the formed shielding lines 211 and the signal lines 205 are insulated from each other. The shielding line 211 and the signal line 205 are separated from each other by a partition wall 209. Referring to FIG. 7, the spacer 209 is removed by using a highly selective etching method for borophosphosilicate glass. This highly selective etching method is preferably to use a low-pressure HF gas to etch the partition wall 209 made of borophosphosilicate glass, and the selection ratio of this method to the borophosphosilicate glass partition wall 209 and the silicon oxide layer 203 is about 1,000. Please Li Zhao "Gas Phase Selective Etching of Native Oxide55 (Mike et al. IEEE Electron Device, 37 (1), p. 107-115, 1990). Therefore, the borophosphosilicate glass spacer 209 can be used in the silicon oxide layer 203, signal Line 205 and shield line 211 are removed without damage. Details of this low-voltage HF etching technology are in "A New Cylindrical Capacitor Using Hemispherical Grain Si (HSG-Si) for 256 Mb DRAMs" (Watanabe 92- 259, 1992). The shielded wire 211 is grounded by the conventional AC method, and the signal line 205 and the shielded wire 211 are air with a lower dielectric constant than silicon oxide, so that the signal wire 205 and the shielded The degree of capacitive coupling of the line 211 is greatly reduced. Finally, as in the general situation, the signal line 205 and the shield line 211 are 9 ------------------- -_____ 'Use China National Standards (CNS> Λ4 Daxuan (210x2㈧ 公 坫) --- ------ lu-h ------ order ------ line (read the notes on the back first and fill in this page) 3 7 98uvt, .d〇c / 006 A7 3 7 98uvt, .d〇c / 006 A7 is printed by the central standard of the Ministry of Justice (printed by the workers' cooperatives) 7 ______ V. Description of the invention (7) An insulating layer is deposited on the top, such as nitrided sand or oxidized chop.

As can be seen from the foregoing preferred embodiments of the present invention, the present invention has The following advantages: First, the shielding line 211 is automatically aligned to the signal line 205 'does not require any advanced lithography technology. Second, the interval between the signal line 205 and the shielding line 211 is very small. Third, the air trench 2Π provides very low capacitance, which reduces the capacitive coupling between the signal line 205 and the shield line 211.
