PSM)或光學近接 效應修正式光罩(Qptical Proximity Correction(OPC) Mask) 來改善光阻圖案的輪廓。但是,隨著所欲形成之圖案尺寸 漸漸縮減到曝光光源的波長(Wavelength)以下至波長的一 半以上時,光波的繞射效應亦愈發顯著,尤其是對接觸窗 開口(Contact Hole)/介層窗開口(Via Hole)等開口類型的光 阻圖案來說,其輪廓並無法以相移式光罩作有效的改善。 另一方面,由於光學近接效應修正光罩必須對光罩圖 形作一些細微的修正,所以其設計與光罩製作上皆甚爲麻 煩,而且當光阻圖案的圖形間隔(Pitch)過小時,光學近接 效應修正光罩的輔助圖形(Assistant Features)甚至沒有擺放 的空間。因此,微影製程所形成之光阻層開口可能會產生 圓化的形狀,使得蝕刻製程所形成之晶圓層開口亦成爲圓 化的形狀。如果此晶圓層開口係爲接觸窗開口 /介層窗開 口,則稍後將形成之接觸窗/介層窗的形狀、截面積與電 阻皆難以掌控。 本發明提出一種在晶圓層中形成開口的方法,其可用 來形成尺寸介於曝光光源波長之半至波長之間的開口。本 發明係進行至少兩次微影製程以形成至少兩層光阻層,並 藉不同層的光阻層來圍出許多光阻層開口,然後進行蝕刻 3 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 裝 tri-----!線, 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) 461040 6766twf. doc/008 五、發明說明(>) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項V填寫本頁) 以在晶圓層中形成開口,其中每一光阻層皆包含平行之線 狀圖形,或近似矩形之塊狀圖形。這些塊狀圖形係由具有 矩形圖案的光罩曝光而得,其係因光波的繞射效應而具有 圓化的四個角落’所以此處稱爲「近似矩形之塊狀圖形」。 當各光阻層中圖形皆爲平行線狀時,則至少有二光阻層中 的線狀圖形互相垂直,並藉此圍出光阻層開口之陣列;當 各光阻層中隱形爲近似矩形之塊狀時,則不同光阻層中之 塊狀圖形的位置相異而圍出光阻層開口,其中每一個塊狀 圖形的四個角落皆位於另一光阻層中之塊狀圖形的上方或 下方,而不會作爲光阻層開口的邊界。 在上述本發明中,各光阻層皆可能是正光阻或負光 阻’但是所有光阻層中只能有一層是正光阻層,否則在第 二層正光阻層進行曝光顯影時,第一層正光阻層即會被除 去。再者,如果此唯一的正光阻層不是最後一層光阻層, 則因正光阻層會在其後之負光阻層曝光時受到照光而產生 光酸’故負光阻層的顯影液必須採用對曝光後之正光阻毫 無影響者。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 如上所述’本發明的第一種方法係以圖形輪廓良好的 二或多層垂直交錯之線狀圖案來圍出光阻層開口,所以光 阻層開口的角落不會產生圓化的形狀。另外,本發明在採 用多層塊狀光阻圖形來圍出光阻層開口時,由於每一個塊 狀圖形中輪廓形狀較差(圓化)的四個角落皆位於另一光阻 層之塊狀圖形的上方或下方,所以光阻層開口皆係由直線 狀的塊狀圖形邊緣中段所圍出,而不會有圓化的形狀。也 4 本紙張尺度適用中國國冢標準(CNS)A4規;公楚)--:- 6 1 04 Ο Α7 6766twf.doc/008 ____B7______ 五、發明說明()) 就是說’本發明可以使後續蝕刻製所形成之晶圓層開口的 形狀與截面積更易於掌控;而如果所形成之開口係爲接觸 窗開口/介層窗開口,即表示稍後將形成之接觸窗/介層窗 的形狀、截面積與電阻均更容易掌控。 爲讓本發明之上述目的、特徵、和優點能更明顯易懂, 下文特舉二較佳實施例,並配合所附圖式,作詳細說明如 下: 圖式之簡單說明: 第1A-1C圖所繪示爲本發明第一實施例中,以二層線 狀圖案光阻層在絕緣層中形成開口的方法,其中第1C圖 係爲一剖面圖,其所對應之剖面爲第1B僵中直線Ι-Γ所 切出之平面;以及 第2A-2C圖所繪示爲本發明第二實施例中,以二層塊 狀圖案之光阻層在絕緣層中形成開口的方法,其中第2C 圖係爲一剖面圖,其所對應之剖面爲第2B圖中直線Π-ΙΓ 所切出之平面;。 圖式之標號說明: 100、200 :基底 110、210 :絕緣層 120、220 :負光阻層 130、. 230 :正光阻層 140、240 :光阻層開口 150/250 :接觸窗(Contact)開口 /介層窗(Via)開口 Ι-Γ、ΙΙ-ΙΓ :直線 X、Y :座標镡號 第一實施例 請參照第1A圖,首先提供基底100,再於基底100 5 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 裝·!丨訂--------線 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 461040 6766twf.doc/008 B7 五、發明說明(w) 上形成絕緣層no,此基底100例如是用來製作動態隨機 存取記憶體(Dynamic Random Access Memory,DRAM)的 基底,其上已形成有記憶胞(Memory Cell)之金氧半導體 (MOS),或是更上層需作電性連接的導線。接著進行第一 次微影製程,以在絕緣層110上形成具有一特定圖形間隔 /寬度(Pitch/Size)之平行條狀圖形的負光阻層120,其中所 使用之曝光機台例如爲波長248nm之KrF準分子雷射掃 描器。此負光阻層120之形成步驟如下:首先全面性地覆 蓋一負光阻層(未顯示)於絕緣層110上方,再進行一軟烤 步驟(Soft Bake)以減少此負光阻層中的溶劑量。接著使用 曝光光源與光罩對此負光阻層曝光,再進行一曝光後烘烤 步驟(Post-exposure Bake,PEB),然後使此負光阻層顯影 即可。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 請參照第1B圖,接著於基底100上形成具有另一特 定圖形間隔/寬度之平行條狀圖形的正光阻層130,其中各 條狀圖形之走向與負光阻層120中的條狀圖形垂直,而圍 出排成二維陣列的光阻層開口 140,其係暴露出絕緣層110 的一部分。此正光阻層130同樣是以248nm之KrF準分 子雷射作爲曝光光源,其圖形間隔a/寬度b爲0.2μπι /0.1 μηι,使得光阻層開口 140的較短(Υ方向)寬度爲0.1 μιη (約波長248nm之半),而此圖形間隔/寬度皆小於負光阻層 120之圖形間隔/寬度。另外,此正光阻層130之形成步驟 與負光阻層120相似,只是此時所欲定義者爲全面覆蓋之 正光阻層而已。另外,由於之前形成的負光阻層120係由 6 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) 461040 6766twf.doc/008 A7 B7 五、發明說明(文) 高分子的交鏈(Cross-linking)而形成,故不必擔心其受正 光阻層130之曝光顯影製程的影響。 請參照第1C圖所示之剖面圖,其所對應之剖面爲第 1B圖中直線Ι-Γ所切出之平面。如第ic圖所示,接著以 負光阻層120與正光阻層130 (請見第1B圖)爲罩幕,蝕 刻暴露於光阻層開口 140中的絕緣層11〇,以在絕緣層11〇 中形成接觸窗開口 /介層窗開口 150。 如上所述,本發明第一實施例係使用二次微影製程, 形成輪廓品質良好的二層垂直交錯之平行線狀光阻圖案以 圍出光阻層開口,所以光阻層開口的角落不會產生圓化的 形狀。 此外’由於本發明第一實施例係藉由兩次微影製程所 形成之兩層光阻層來圍出光阻層開口,所以當光阻曆開口 之長寬比(Aspect Ratio,其値爲由上方觀視基底時之光阻 層開口的長度寬度比)不爲1時(第1B圖),或是光阻層開 口在二垂直方向的圖形間隔/寬度不同時(第1B圖),各微 影製程中的曝光條件即可分別調整爲最佳狀態,.從而得到 關鍵尺寸(Critical Dimension,CD)精準的開口。依此類推, 當欲形成之平行條狀圖案光阻層的層數大於二時,亦可分 別調整每一光阻層的曝光條件以得到精確的關鍵尺寸。 第二實施例 請參照第2A圖,首先提供基底200,再於基底200 上形成絕緣層210,此基底2〇〇例如是用來製作動態隨機 7 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) -----·--I I I I I,^i I (請先閱讀背面之注§項再填窝本頁) 言· · 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 A7 B7 4 6 1 04 0 6766twf. doc/008 五、發明說明(& ) 存取記憶體(Dynamic Random Access Memory ’ DRAM)的 基底,其上已形成有記憶胞之金氧半導體,或是更上層需 作電性連接的導線。接著進行第一次微影製程,以在絕緣 層210上形成二維塊狀圖形之負光阻層220,這些塊狀圖 形皆是以具有矩形圖形的光罩曝光而得’且因光波之繞射 效應而在其四個角落具有圓化之形狀。此處所使用之曝光 機台爲波長248nm之KrF準分子雷射掃描器’且此負光 阻層220之較短的(Y方向)圖形間隔a/寬度b爲 0.3μιη/0.2μηι。此負光阻層220之形成步驟如下:首先全 面性地覆蓋一負光阻層(未顯示)於絕緣層21〇上方’再進 行一軟烤步驟以減少此負光阻層中的溶劑量。接著使用曝 光光源與光罩對此負光阻層曝光,再進行一曝光後烘烤 (ΡΕΒ)步驟,然後使此負光阻層顯影即可。 請參照第2Β圖,接著於基底200上形成具有二維塊 狀圖形的正光阻層230,其中各塊狀圖形與負光阻層22〇 中的塊狀圖形圍出許多光祖層開口 240’並暴露出絕緣層 210的一部分。此正光阻層230中的塊狀圖形也是以具有 矩形圖形的光罩曝光而得,且因光波之繞射效應而在其四 個角落具有圓化之形狀。 請繼續參照第_2Β圖,正光阻層230與負光阻層220 的Χ/Υ方向圖形間隔/寬度皆相同,但位置不同,即正光 阻層230 (負光阻層220)中每一個塊狀圖形的中心皆位在 負光阻層220 (正光阻層23〇)中四個塊狀圖形的正中央, 使得光阻層開口 240的較短(Υ方向)寬度爲〇·1μηι (約波長 8 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS)A4規格(210 X 297公釐) -----;--------r>·裝—— (請先閲讀背面之注意事項^^寫本頁) 訂: --線」 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 461040 6766twf. doc/008 A7 B7 五、發明說明) 248nm之半)(第2A圖)。此外,正光阻層230中每一個塊 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 狀圖形的四個角落皆位在負光阻層220中的四個塊狀圖形 之上,且正光阻層230中的塊狀圖形覆蓋住負光阻層220 中每一個塊狀圖形的四個角落,使得相鄰兩行/列的光阻 層開口 240以錯位之方式排列。另外,.此正光阻層230之 形成步驟與負光阻層220相似,只是此時所欲定義者爲全 面覆蓋之正光阻層而已。 請參照第2C圖所示之剖面圖,其所對應之剖面爲第 2B圖中直線ΙΙ-ΙΓ所切出之平面。如第2C圖所示,接著 以正光阻層230與負光阻層220 (請見第2B圖)爲罩幕, 蝕刻暴露於光阻層開口 240中的絕緣層210,以在絕緣層 210中形成接觸窗開口/介層窗開口 250。 如上所述’在本發明第二實施例中,由於負光阻層220 中每一個塊狀圖形圓化的四個角落皆位於正光阻層230之 塊狀圖形的下方,且正光阻層230中每一個塊狀圖形圓化 的四個角落皆位於負光阻層220中之塊狀圖形的上方,所 以光阻層開口 240皆係由呈直線狀的塊狀圖形邊緣中段所 圍出,而不會具有圓化的形狀。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 綜上所述’本發明較佳實施例係採用兩層輪廓形狀良 好的光阻層來圍出寬度約爲曝光波長之半的開口,所以開 口形狀可以保持矩形,使得蝕刻後能形成矩形的接觸窗開 口/介層窗開口,進而能夠精確地控制稍後將形成之接觸 窗/介層窗的形狀、截面積與電阻。 除此之外’本發明亦可應用於dram中之溝渠式電 9A7 B7 461040 6766twf.

Method for forming openings in a circular layer. As the size of semiconductor processes is getting smaller, the current exposure process often requires the use of a phase shift mask (ghase §hift Mask; PSM) or an optical proximity effect correction mask (OPC) Mask to improve light Of resistance pattern. However, as the size of the pattern to be formed gradually decreases to below the wavelength of the exposure light source (Wavelength) to more than half the wavelength, the diffraction effect of the light wave becomes more and more significant, especially for the contact hole / media For a photoresist pattern of an opening type such as a layer hole, the contour cannot be effectively improved by a phase-shifting photomask. On the other hand, because the optical proximity effect correction mask must make some minor corrections to the mask pattern, its design and mask making are very troublesome, and when the pattern pitch of the photoresist pattern is too small, the optical The Assistant Features of the Proximity Correction Mask do not even have room for placement. Therefore, the photoresist layer opening formed by the lithography process may have a rounded shape, so that the wafer layer opening formed by the etching process also becomes a rounded shape. If the wafer layer opening is a contact window / via window opening, the shape, cross-sectional area, and resistance of the contact window / via window to be formed later are difficult to control. The present invention provides a method for forming an opening in a wafer layer, which can be used to form an opening having a size between half and the wavelength of an exposure light source. In the present invention, at least two photolithography processes are performed to form at least two photoresist layers, and many photoresist layer openings are surrounded by different photoresist layers, and then etched. 3 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling This page) is equipped with the tri -----!

Explanation of the invention (>) (Please read the precautions on the back of the page to fill out this page first) to form openings in the wafer layer, where each photoresist layer contains parallel linear patterns or approximately rectangular block patterns. These block patterns are obtained by exposing a mask with a rectangular pattern. The block patterns have rounded four corners due to the diffraction effect of light waves. Therefore, they are referred to as "approximately rectangular block patterns" here. When the patterns in each photoresist layer are parallel lines, at least two linear patterns in the photoresist layer are perpendicular to each other, thereby surrounding the array of photoresist layer openings; when the photoresist layer is invisible, it is approximately rectangular In the case of a block, the positions of the block patterns in different photoresist layers are different and surround the photoresist layer opening. The four corners of each block pattern are above the block pattern in the other photoresist layer. Or below, rather than as the border of the photoresist layer opening. In the present invention described above, each photoresist layer may be a positive photoresist or a negative photoresist. However, only one of all photoresist layers is a positive photoresist layer. Otherwise, when the second positive photoresist layer is exposed and developed, the first The positive photoresist layer is removed. Furthermore, if the only positive photoresist layer is not the last photoresist layer, the developing solution of the negative photoresist layer must be used because the positive photoresist layer will be exposed to light when the subsequent negative photoresist layer is exposed. Those who have no influence on the positive photoresist after exposure. The Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs printed the above-mentioned 'The first method of the present invention is to surround the photoresist layer opening with two or more vertical staggered line patterns with good graphic outlines, so Does not produce rounded shapes. In addition, in the present invention, when a multilayer block photoresist pattern is used to surround the photoresist layer opening, the four corners with poor outline shapes (rounded) in each block pattern are located in the block pattern of another photoresist layer. Above or below, the openings of the photoresist layer are all surrounded by the middle of the edge of the linear block pattern, and there will be no rounded shape. 4 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Standard A4; Gongchu) --- 6 1 04 〇 Α7 6766twf.doc / 008 ____B7______ 5.

Then, the first lithography process is performed to form a negative photoresist layer 120 having a parallel stripe pattern with a specific pattern interval / width (Pitch / Size) on the insulating layer 110. The exposure machine used is, for example, a wavelength 248nm KrF excimer laser scanner. The negative photoresist layer 120 is formed as follows: firstly, a negative photoresist layer (not shown) is completely covered on the insulating layer 110, and then a soft bake step is performed to reduce the negative photoresist layer in the negative photoresist layer.
