Abstract

This invention is a method of determining set temperature trajectories for a heat treatment system that conducts a first heat treatment process and a second heat treatment process to an object to be processed. The method comprises the steps of: conducting the first heat treatment process to a first test object to be processed, by using a temporary first set temperature trajectory; measuring a result of the first heat treatment process produced on the first test object to be processed; and determining a first set temperature trajectory for the first heat treatment process by correcting the temporary first set temperature trajectory on the basis of the measured result of the first heat treatment process. The method also comprises the steps of: conducting the second heat treatment process to a second test object to be processed to which the first heat treatment process has been conducted by using the determined first set temperature trajectory, by using a temporary second set temperature trajectory; measuring a result of the first heat treatment process and the second heat treatment process produced on the second test object to be processed; and determining a second set temperature trajectory for the second heat treatment process by correcting the temporary second set temperature trajectory on the basis of the measured result of the first heat treatment process and the second heat treatment process.

Description of the invention (Background of the invention: Field of invention (please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) The present invention is a decision on a temperature processing system for the conductive temperature processing process of a processed object. A method for forming a temperature trajectory, such as a film precipitation process. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for determining a set of temperature trajectories for a temperature processing system, so that the temperature processing system can form a film correctly. Description of related techniques The temperature processing steps on which a wafer is formed to form a specific film is one of the basic processes for manufacturing semiconductor devices or the like. The temperature processing steps are performed by a temperature processing system in a relatively high temperature environment ranging from about 750 to 900 ° C. The chemical evaporation precipitation process (CVD process) and the oxidation / diffusion process are such temperature processing processes. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Generally, the temperature processing system is provided with vertical layers (like layers) to support multiple wafers. Wafer support device (referred to as wafer boat), which includes a tubular reactor in which the wafer support device is located. Tube, a plurality of heaters which are conveniently formed around the side wall of the reaction tube and constructed with a wheelbase, a gas supply line that transports the reaction gas to the reaction tube, and an exhaust line through which the gas is discharged from the reaction tube. The power is discharged at a predetermined rate. Supply to the heater to maintain the wafer at a temperature suitable for film forming. It is practically impossible to measure the temperature of the wafer during the film forming process. So often, apart from the wafer, the measured temperature of the part is used It is used to control the process temperature. The control of the individual output of the heater is essential to correctly achieve the temperature processing process, such as the process of depositing a film on a wafer. The film precipitation process will be applied to this paper standard by China National Standard (CNS) A4 Specifications (210X 297mm) -4-490604 A7 B7 V. Invention description ($ describes an example of such a temperature processing process. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) When the wafer temperature is even a little different At a set of wafer temperatures, the thickness and quality of the film deposited on the wafer are obtained from a set of wafers. For example, in a film deposition process, The temperature difference of the wafer's temperature rc 'causes a thickness difference of 0.1 nm from the thickness of the film. If the film thickness is in the range of several nanometers to tens of nanometers, when the temperature of the group of wafers is several At 100 degrees Celsius, the temperature of the wafer must be controlled. With an accuracy of several degrees Celsius. When the reaction gas flows from the gas supply side to the exhaust side of the reaction tube at a constant flow, the concentration distribution of the reaction gas in the reaction tube is not uniform. If the temperature in different areas of the reaction tube is controlled in the same way and the distribution of the concentration of the reaction gas in the reaction tube is not uniform, films with different thicknesses are respectively deposited on different wafers. So, different The group temperature is respectively set as a plurality of heaters constructed in the direction of construction of a plurality of wafers, and the individual temperatures of the plurality of heaters are individually controlled. The Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (in cooperation with the industry) prints the areas corresponding to the reaction tubes of a plurality of heaters individually through the allowable thickness range through the repetition of the correction of the thickness of the film to form the optimal group temperature, The optimal set temperature of the film with the correct and consistent thickness on the wafer in the reaction tube can be determined in the reaction tube, for example, by a method that includes the steps of placing multiple test wafers, with a set of temperatures on the wafer The thickness of the deposited film is measured by the mechanism of the measuring instrument, and a set of temperature conditions of a reaction tube corresponding to the output of multiple heaters is adjusted based on the measured thickness difference from the desired thickness. And in the adjusted set of warm paper sizes, the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) -5- f0604 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (9 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this Page) to deposit the film on the test wafer. These steps are repeated until the difference in measured thickness from the desired thickness of the film is reduced to a predetermined degree. Therefore, a set of temperature bars is decided Used as a set of temperature conditions of a reaction tube corresponding to the output of multiple heaters. In some examples, when manufacturing a semiconductor device, different types of films are deposited in layers by a film precipitation process. In such examples In this case, the optimal set of temperature conditions in the reaction tubes corresponding to the outputs of the multiple heaters is determined as each film deposition process. Suppose, for example, that a first film is deposited on a wafer and then a second film is deposited. On the first film. The optimal set of temperature conditions in the reaction tubes corresponding to the outputs of the plurality of heaters is determined by the method of the first film precipitation process for forming the first film. Then, corresponding to a plurality of formations The best set of temperature conditions in the reaction tube of the output of the heater of the second film deposition process of the second film is the above method of precipitating the first film on the wafer under the optimal set of temperature conditions determined as above It is determined. Therefore, the optimal set of temperature conditions is individually determined as a deposition film on the wafer. Printed by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. However, in some examples, semiconductor device manufacturing The process requires the first film and the second film to be formed continuously. When the first film and the second film are formed continuously, the first film is deposited on a wafer carried on a temperature processing system, and then the second film is deposited on The first film does not need to be unloaded from the temperature processing system after the first film has been deposited. When the first film and the second film are thus continuously formed, only the first and second films are formed on the wafer. The data on the results of the film precipitation can be measured by a measuring instrument, and therefore the optimal set of temperatures for the first and second films are individually determined.

(Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) There are two different data on the results of measuring the precipitation of the first and second membranes. example. In the first example, if the first and second films are nitride films, the individual thicknesses of the first and second films cannot be measured individually, and only the sum of the individual thicknesses of the first and second films can be measured. In the second example, as in the case where the first film is an oxide film and the second film is a nitride film, the individual thicknesses of the first and second films can be measured individually. In the first example, the optimal set of temperature conditions can be determined as the film deposition process for depositing the first or second film. In this example, the sum of the individual thicknesses of the first and second films can be managed, but the individual thicknesses of the first and second films cannot be individually managed. In addition, the optimal set of temperature conditions may be determined by properly dividing the data on the results of the membrane precipitation as the membrane precipitation process for depositing the first and second membranes, respectively. However, in practice, it is unknown whether the division (allocation) is appropriate. Therefore, such film thickness management cannot achieve film thickness management of individual films. In the second example, the optimal set of temperature conditions for the film formation process for forming the first and second films must be determined in an appropriate order. If the first and second films are formed, The optimal set of temperature for the second film deposition process after the film is determined, and then the optimal set of temperature conditions for the first film deposition process to determine the first film is determined. A set of temperature conditions determines the optimum set of temperature conditions that affect the treatment of the second film to be deposited. Therefore, the optimal set of temperature conditions for the film precipitation process for depositing the second film must be readjusted. In this example, it is difficult to effectively determine the optimal set of temperature conditions.

The two films are continuously formed in the layer. In this example, the individual thicknesses of the two films forming the two-layer film cannot be measured individually and only the sum of those thicknesses can be measured. This example corresponds to an example where a nitride film is formed and another nitrogen north film is formed on the former. It is assumed that the thickness of the two-layer film needs to be approximately specified in a predetermined thickness range, such as a range of 4nm + -0.5%, and the thickness of the first film, that is, the lower film, needs to be approximately specified in a predetermined thickness range, such as 1.5nm 1.0% range.

Referring to FIG. 5A, the wafer is heated to 800 ° C, and the wafer is held at 800 ° C for several minutes. As the first temperature stabilization process, the first A film precipitation process is performed to precipitate the first film, and then a first annealing process is performed to anneal the first film. The wafer is maintained at a fixed control temperature of 800 ° C during the first temperature stabilization process. Ministry of Economic Affairs, Smart Finance Bureau B (Printed by the Industrial and Consumer Cooperative) Next, the temperature of the wafer was reduced to 760 ° C, and the wafer was maintained at 76 (TC as a second temperature stabilization process, and the second film precipitation process was performed to precipitate the second film, And then a second annealing process is performed to anneal the second film. The wafer is stabilized at a second temperature, the second film precipitation process and the second annealing process are maintained at a fixed control temperature of 76 ° C. The temperature of the wafer is at After the completion of the second annealing process, the wafer can be unloaded from the temperature processing system. When the temperatures of the first and second film deposition processes are controlled according to the nominal temperature control chart, the temperature of the first film deposition process is the highest.

Description of the invention (A (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Therefore, the first set of temperature in the first film precipitation process is not a fixed temperature, but the same is that the dynamic set of temperature changes over time. Here The process of determining the optimal first movement. The temperature of the group will be explained. The temperature of the first group is gradually reduced over time during the first film Shen Dian process to heat the central part of the wafer to a relatively high temperature and heat the periphery of the wafer. Partial to quite low temperature. Such a temperature change reduces the spread of the film thickness distribution on each wafer ', that is, the inner film thickness distribution of the wafer, and reduces the thickness between the films formed on the wafer, that is, the crystal The difference in film thickness distribution between circles is effective. A suitable temperature hierarchy can be established between the periphery and the central portion of the wafer by changing the set of temperatures during the first film deposition process by using the ratio of heat transfer from the wafer. For example If the central part and the peripheral part of the wafer are respectively exposed to the atmosphere of different film deposition conditions, such as the atmosphere of different source gas concentrations, the effect of different film deposition conditions It can be compensated by the appropriate temperature level. For example, if a group of temperatures is not lowered during the first film deposition process, the film formed on the wafer has the following structure, as shown in Figure 9A: As shown in FIG. 9A, in general, the thickness of the film on the central portion of the wafer is similar to that on the peripheral portion of the wafer, which may be mainly derived from the source corresponding to the area between the center of the wafer and the peripheral portion. The difference in gas concentration is caused. The source gas flows from the peripheral portion of the wafer to the central portion of the wafer and is consumed while it is flowing to the central portion of the wafer, and therefore the source gas concentration flows from the peripheral portion of the wafer to the central portion of the wafer. Therefore, the thickness of the central part of the film is somewhat similar to the peripheral part of the film, for example, a small portion of 1 nm. In the following description, the temperature treatment system for forming a film having a thickness distribution as shown in FIG. 9A The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -29- 490604 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (The feature of the whole system will be called the cup feature. Therefore As shown in FIG. 9B, it is preferable to control the temperature of the wafer by, for example, a few degrees Celsius so that the temperature of the central portion of the wafer is somewhat higher than the peripheral portion. The temperature during the first film precipitation process for this purpose The temperature gradually decreases from time to time. Next, heat is transferred from the central portion of the wafer to the peripheral portion of the wafer, and a temperature level indicating a decrease in temperature from the central portion of the wafer to the peripheral portion of the wafer is established. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 9C, the film can be deposited on the wafer with a very uniform thickness. Referring again to FIG. 7A, the temperature is reduced after the first annealing process to start the precipitation of the second film. Similarly, the first The two stable processes, the second film precipitation process and the second annealing process are implemented. In the second film precipitation process, the temperature of the second group is gradually decreased in time during the precipitation of the second film. Here, the optimal first temperature is determined. The procedure for the two dynamic group temperatures will be explained. After the second annealing process is completed, the temperature is reduced and the wafer is removed from the temperature processing system. When the temperatures of the first and second membrane precipitation processes are controlled according to a nominal temperature control chart, the optimal first dynamic set temperature of the first membrane precipitation process is determined by the following procedure. Fig. 7B shows a part of the crystal circle temperature control chart of the heating (temperature rising) process, the first stable process, the first film precipitation process, the first annealing process, and the first temperature decreasing process. The first membrane is precipitated by using the nominal temperature as the first dynamic set temperature. The optimization unit 39 calculates the corrected first dynamic group temperature based on the data on the results of the film precipitation, and then another first film is precipitated by using the corrected first dynamic group temperature. These first paper sizes are in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) ► Binding and Printing Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau Staff Consumer Cooperatives of the Ministry of Economic Affairs -30- 490604 A7 _B7_ V. Description of the invention (4 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The steps of film precipitation and temperature correction of the first dynamic group are repeated until the first film with a thickness that meets the required specifications is formed. Figure 7C shows the optimal first dynamic group temperature thus determined. As shown in FIG. 6C, the first dynamic group temperature of the wafer supported by the upper region of the wafer boat 13 is controlled according to the temperature control chart 171, and the wafer boat 1 The temperature of the first dynamic group of wafers supported in the lower region of 3 is controlled according to the temperature control chart Π2. The temperature of the first dynamic group of wafers supported by the upper, middle, and lower middle regions of the crystal boat 13 is controlled. The control chart, which can be determined by the same procedure, is omitted in FIG. 7C. Therefore, suitable for precipitation indicates the range of allowable thickness spread (difference) within the wafer and the range of allowable thickness spread (difference) between wafers. The first film that meets the required quality can be determined by Shendian and only measuring the first film outside the two films that are continuously precipitated. Figures 8A and 8B are helpful to explain the determination of the best second dynamic of the second film precipitation. Wafer temperature control chart for the optimal second dynamic group temperature determining procedure of the group temperature. The optimal second dynamic group temperature for depositing the second film is determined by the following procedure. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics, refer to Figure 8A The second film precipitation process using the nominal second dynamic group temperature to precipitate the second film is performed as the first film precipitation process using the optimal first dynamic group temperature. The optimization unit 39 The corrected second dynamic group temperature is calculated based on the data on the results and the second film is precipitated by the second film precipitation process using the corrected second dynamic group temperature. These second film precipitates and the second dynamic group temperature The calibration step is repeated until a second film having a thickness that meets the required specifications is formed. FIG. 8B shows the optimal second dynamic group temperature thus determined. As shown in FIG. 8B, the upper paper ruler of the wafer ship 13 Applicable to China National Standards (CNS) 8-4 specifications (210X297 mm) '-31-490604 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (^ 9 The first dynamic group temperature of the wafer supported by the area is controlled according to the temperature control chart 1 8 1 And the second dynamic group temperature of the wafers supported by the lower region of the wafer boat 1 3 is controlled according to the temperature control chart 1 82. The wafers supported by the upper, middle, and lower middle regions of the wafer boat 13 are controlled. The temperature control map of the temperature of the second dynamic group, which can be determined by the same procedure, is omitted in Fig. 8B. Therefore, a thickness (temperature-treated Synthesis result) of the two films and the first film, which is a group of rhenium deposits with a thickness falling within a predetermined thickness range, that is, the lower film (the first temperature-treated crust) and is in a wafer that indicates allowable It is possible to determine the optimal first dynamic group temperature and the optimal second dynamic group temperature for the required quality of the thickness spread (difference) range and the allowable wafer thickness spread (difference) range. It is therefore possible to manage the thickness of the second film (the result of the second temperature treatment). The use of the optimal dynamic group temperature is improved. If the group temperature does not change dynamically, when a film with a thickness as shown in FIG. 10A is formed on a wafer supported by the upper area of the wafer boat 13 (Figure 1) ), A film having a thickness as shown in FIG. 10B is formed on a wafer supported by the middle region of the wafer ship 13 and a film having a thickness as shown in FIG. 10C is formed on the wafer ship 13幵 Regionally supported wafers for consistency. When the difference between the film deposition conditions of the reaction tube is complicated, the film has the aforementioned thickness distribution. For example, when a gas is supplied to the reaction tube through the upper part of the reaction tube and the gas is gradually decomposed in the reaction tube to precipitate the film in addition to one or more factors that cause the characteristics of the cup shown in FIG. 9A, the film There is the aforementioned thickness distribution. This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Ordered by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs: Printed by Yibeigong Cooperative-32- 490604 A7 _B7_ 5. Description of the invention (full (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) In this state, add the factor that makes the thickness of the film on the central part of the wafer larger than the peripheral part of the wafer. Such a factor will be referred to as a cup characteristic. This additional factor does not substantially affect the thickness difference between the peripheral portion and the central portion of the film formed on the wafer supported on the lower region of the wafer boat. When additional factors are added In the cup characteristics inherent in the temperature processing system shown in FIG. 1A, the cup characteristics are dominant in the upper area of the wafer ship and the temperature processing system shows the cup characteristics (Figure 10A). In the middle region, the cup feature and the cup feature compensate each other and the film has substantially the same thickness as shown in FIG. 10B. In the lower region of the wafer boat, the cup feature is dominant and the temperature processing system shows the cup feature (Figure 10C). The film thickness distribution shown in Figs. 10A to 10C is obvious. When a film is deposited on the wafer, the dynamic group temperature that is slightly increased is used as the wafer supported by the upper area of the wafer ship. A constant (static) group temperature Wafers that are used as wafers supported in the middle area of the wafer ship and have a slight settled dynamic group temperature are used as wafers that are supported in the lower area of the wafer ship to form a film with a consistent thickness. As described above, the two-layer film that is suitable for the thickness (combined result of temperature treatment) that falls within a predetermined thickness range of a group of plutonium deposits and the thickness that falls within a predetermined thickness range that is a set of plutonium deposits The first film, that is, the lower film (the result of the first temperature treatment) and the highest quality that meets the requirements indicating the allowable range of thickness spread (difference) within the wafer and the allowable range of thickness spread (difference) between wafers. The determination of the best first dynamic group temperature and the best second dynamic group temperature is possible. Therefore, the thickness of the second film (the result of the second temperature treatment) can be managed. Different from the previous description of FIGS. 2 to 4 One set of temperature determination procedures, the Chinese national standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm) -33- 490604 A7 __B7 are applied to this paper size V.

Figs. 11 to 13 determine the best one of the reaction tubes corresponding to the output of a heater that continuously forms two films. Flow chart of the best set of temperature determining program. The two films are continuously formed in the rain film and the individual thickness of the rain film can be measured individually. For example, one of the two films is an oxide film and Another is a nitride film formed on an oxide film. Assume that the thickness of the first film, that is, the lower film, needs to be within a predetermined thickness range of a specific thickness, such as 1.5 nm + -1.0% and the second film, That is, the thickness of the upper film needs to be within a predetermined thickness range of a specific thickness, such as 2.5nm + -1.0%.

The multiple wafers include the five wafers supported by the upper region, upper and middle region, middle region, lower middle region, and lower region of the wafer boat 13, respectively. The test wafers were unloaded from the temperature processing system after the first and second film deposition processes were completed.

The measured thickness is compared with a predetermined thickness in step 237. Degree range comparison, such as 1.5nm + -1.0%. If the measured thickness is _ within this predetermined thickness range, the process of determining the optimal first set temperature for depositing the first film is completed.

As shown in FIG. 1, first, the first film is formed on a test wafer supported by multiple temperature processing systems by using the optimal first set of temperatures determined above, and the second film deposition process is continued from the first film deposition process. It is performed to precipitate the second film on the first film in step 24 1. The plurality of test wafers include the upper region, the upper middle region, the middle region, the lower middle region, and the five regions supported by the wafer ship 13 respectively. The second film deposition process uses standard temperatures for all five test wafers. After the first film and the second film have been deposited on the layers of each test wafer, the test crystal is removed from the temperature processing system.

An example of the determination of the optimal set of temperatures previously described in Figs. 5A to 6B will be specifically described in terms of the actual semiconductor device manufacturing process. In this example, the semiconductor device manufacturing process is a gate oxide film deposition process. Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Industrial and Consumer Cooperatives Generally, the gate oxide film formation process means a process of forming an oxide film on a semiconductor substrate by thermal oxidation. The gate electrode layer of polycrystalline silicon is formed on an oxide film (insulating film). For example, boron (B) is injected into the gate electrode layer of polycrystalline silicon to enhance the electron conductivity of the gate electrode layer. Due to recent advances in the scale of device minimization and integration, the thickness of gate oxide films has been increasingly reduced. Therefore, unless some measurement occurs that the boron injected into the gate electrode is diffused into the gate oxide film or penetrated into the semiconductor substrate by a temperature processing process performed later. Such penetration or diffusion of boron may destroy necessary features of the device. It is known that the method of modifying the oxide film to form a oxynitride film is effective in avoiding penetration or diffusion of boron. A continuous temperature treatment process including such a modified process will be explained. The first temperature treatment process is a wet thermal oxidation process performed in steam.
