Description of the Invention (I) The present invention relates to a structure of an isolation structure and a method for manufacturing the same ', and more particularly to a combined area oxidation method (LOCOS) and a shallow trench isolation method ( Shallow Trench Isolation (STI) isolation structure and its manufacturing method. The element isolation region is used to prevent carriers from moving between adjacent elements through the substrate. Traditionally, the element isolation region is formed between adjacent field effect transistors (FETs) in dense semiconductor circuits. To reduce charge leakage caused by field effect transistors, such dense semiconductor circuits are, for example, dynamic random access memories (DRAMs). The element isolation area is often formed under the surface of the semiconductor substrate in the form of a thick field oxide layer. The most traditional and popular technology is the silicon local oxidation technology (LOCOS). The results are shown in Figure 1. Please refer to FIG. 1. A silicon substrate 100 has a field oxide region 102. This field oxide region 102 isolates the field effect transistors 102 and 106. Each field effect transistor 104 and 106 has a source and a sink. Pole, channel, and gate on the channel. This element is a part of a memory element, and this memory element does not include other circuit units, such as a charge storage capacitor, wiring lines on the field oxide region 102 and various other wires on the field oxide layer, contact windows and circuits, etc. . In forming a LOCOS field oxide region, a silicon nitride layer is first deposited on the surface of the substrate 100, and then a portion of the silicon nitride layer is selectively etched to define the substrate 100 to form the field oxide region 102. The field oxide region 102 is formed after the substrate 100 defined by the photomask is placed in an oxidizing environment, and the area defined by the photomask forms a thick sand oxide layer that extends above the surface of the substrate. With below. The screen of nitrided sand is almost free of oxygen (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) I 丨 IIII Order! 11111_ Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 1 2 This paper size applies to Chinese national standards ( CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 3 5 1 2twfl .doc / 002 Α7 3 5 1 2twfl .doc / 002 Α7 Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs B7 V. Description of the invention (7) Environmental impact 'Therefore, the side range of the field oxide region 102 can be determined by the mask, wherein the grown oxide 102 cuts off the edge of the silicon nitride mask, and the oxide extends along the edge of the silicon nitride' and extends to the substrate 100. Side or above. Therefore, a bird's beak region 108 is formed at the edge of the field oxide region 102. The bird's beak region 108 shown in FIG. 1 is a main field oxide region 102 extending along the substrate 100. Surface extends thinner oxidized area. In the field oxide region 102 grown by the LOCOS method, the bird's beak region 108 will reduce the size and space of the memory cell, so it is a bad field oxide region. The bird's beak region 10 is thinner and cannot provide a sufficient isolation effect for the element, which limits the degree of isolation of the field oxide region 102 in the element, but still occupies the surface area of the substrate. Therefore, in order to provide higher integration of components, it is necessary to use different component isolation structures. Shallow trench isolation (STI) is another isolation structure in addition to the LOCOS field oxidation method. Figures 2A to 2G are cross-sectional views illustrating the manufacturing process of a shallow trench isolation area. In this process, 'a thermal oxide layer 202 is coated on the silicon substrate 200 as a pad oxide layer, and this pad oxide layer 202 protects the surface of the substrate' and finally the gate oxide The gate oxide layer is removed before formation. Then, a silicon nitride layer 204 is formed by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and then a defined photoresist layer 206 is used to form an implantation mask layer 206 on one of the surfaces of the silicon nitride layer 204. In this step, ions are implanted into the substrate to form an isolation element such as an isolation well, which has p / n connection electrical properties. Then remove the implant mask 206, and then, as shown in FIG. 2B, deposit a photoresist layer on the silicon nitride layer 204, and then expose and selectively remove the photoresist layer to form the mask. 4 paper sizes Applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) --- Γ —— — — — — — — — — IIIIIII Order —- IIII i (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page ) Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 35 12twfl .doc / 002 -404005--bz_ V. Description of the Invention (,) 208 'Sequentially etch the silicon nitride layer 204 and the pad oxide layer 202 And silicon substrate 200, a trench 210 is formed on the substrate 200, as shown in FIG. 2C, and then the etching mask 208 is removed. The trench 210 is then filled with a silicon oxide layer 212, and when deposited in the trench, it is caused to overflow the trench, as shown in FIG. 2D. After that, the chemical oxide polishing (CMP) method is used to remove the oxide layer on the surface of the silicon nitride layer 204, and the silicon nitride layer 204 is used as the finishing point, leaving an oxide layer 212a in the trench area. As shown in Figure 2E. When the chemical mechanical honing method is performed, since the material of the oxide layer 212a is softer than that of the silicon nitride layer 204, the oxide plug 212a may have a slight dishing phenomenon 214. Then the silicon nitride layer 204 is removed, leaving the oxide layer 214 (Figure 2F) 'and the pad oxide layer is removed by etching with a hydrofluoric acid solution, as shown in Figure 2G. The etching step of the oxide layer 212a often causes its over-etching, which causes the surface of the oxide layer 212a to be recessed and lower than the surface of the substrate 200. Over-etching often occurs at the edge of the oxide layer 212a adjacent to the surface of the substrate 200, causing The generation of a "shoulder" between the substrate 200 and the trench side wall. In subsequent processes, the poor-quality gate oxide layer formed in the shoulder region 216 will reduce the threshold voltage at which the transistor “opens” and cause an abnormal secondary threshold current in the kink effect. (subthreshold current). In addition to the chemical mechanical honing method, in addition to the phenomenon of causing depression in the oxide layer 212a, it is also found that after honing, microscratch will be generated on the oxide layer 212a, which may also cause subsequent components to There are many problems in operation. 5 ^ The paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) I (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) I Loading --- 111111.

After that, the substrate is subjected to a first thermal process' to continue to remove the hard material spacers and expose the substrate. A trench is formed on the exposed substrate and a second lining oxide layer is formed on the surface of the trench. Next, a polycrystalline silicon layer is formed in the trench, and the surface of the polycrystalline silicon layer is not lower than the surface of the substrate.

And 3008c. After removing the hard material spacers 308a, 308b, and 308c, the lining oxide layer 306 that was originally covered by the hard material spacers 308a, 308b, and 308c is exposed, including the exposed field oxide layers 310a, 310b. The lining oxide layer 306 on the side substrate 300 continues to use the hard material layer 302 and the field oxide layers 310a and 310b as a mask. The substrate 300 is etched by anisotropic etching to form trenches 312a, 312b, 312c, as shown in FIG. 3E, that is, trenches 3 12b, 3 12c are formed on the sides of the field oxide layers 310a, 310b. After that, in the trenches 3 12a, 312b, 3 lk, A lining oxide layer 314 is formed on the surface of the bottom 300, for example, by a thermal oxidation method.
