Description of the Invention () Field of the Invention: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit, and more particularly to a method having a low dielectric constant. Forming method of hole material dielectric layer. Background of the Invention: With the development of semiconductor technology, the requirements for the size of semiconductor elements have also moved into the field of deep sub-microns. When the integration degree of integrated circuits increases, the surface of the chip must provide enough area to make the required metal interconnects. However, because of problems such as resistance and capacitive coupling between adjacent metal interconnects, metal interconnects can cause delays in the signal transmission of the metal interconnects, making it impossible to effectively increase the operating speed of the integrated circuit. Its power consumption is effectively reduced. In order to solve the above-mentioned RC delay problem, a dielectric material with a low dielectric constant needs to be used to solve the problem of capacitive coupling between the adjacent metal interconnects. For this reason, many low-dielectric constant materials have been developed. For example, their chemical composition can be divided into two types: carbon-containing organic and carbon-free inorganic. According to their deposition methods, they can be divided into Low dielectric constant materials formed by coating (for example, SiLK from Dow Chemical Company) and low dielectric constant materials formed by chemical vapor deposition (for example, BlackDiam from Applied Materials). nd). The disadvantage of using the spin-coating method is that the film is prone to contain organic solvent substances, so the outgassing (cmtgassing) of the film will cause the via window (via p〇is〇ning) and peeling -------- ----------- t --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 2

根據前述,具有低介電常數之多孔洞材質,其多孔洞結構爲 其低介電常數之主要原因。一旦此多孔洞結構崩解,則此材質所 形成之薄膜的介電常數便會大幅回昇,成爲高介電常數。隨著孔 洞結構瓦解之程度越大,介電常數回昇之幅度就會越大。 此種具有低介電常數之多孔洞膜之形成,可分爲二大類:一 爲旋轉塗佈法,一爲化學氣相沉積法。使用化學氣相沉積法時, 由於此多孔洞膜之前導物多爲液態,因此需要使用載氣,將此前

Description of the invention () At the same time, it uses chemical solutions, so the process takes a long time, resulting in a large increase in time cost, which does not meet the requirements of the large output of modern semiconductor manufacturing. Conversely, chemical vapor deposition does not cause the problem of poisoning and peeling of the dielectric window, and its process time is short, so it will become the main technology for thin film processing in the future. Pre-conductors of low dielectric constant porous holes, such as triethyl phosphate (TEPO for short), are mostly liquid substances. Therefore, in the conventional chemical vapor deposition process, a carrier gas is used to load these liquid precursors into a chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber. The commonly used carrier gas is mostly inert gas, such as nitrogen, argon, or helium, among which helium is commonly used. However, when plasma enhanced chemical (PECVD) is used to deposit porous hole materials, the porous hole structure of these porous hole materials often disintegrate to a considerable extent, which is the original porous hole structure. After the film is deposited, it will suffer considerable damage. The pore structure is the main reason why the dielectric constant of the film is lower than that of general dielectric materials, so the collapse of the pore structure will greatly increase the dielectric constant of the film. Therefore, there is a great need to propose a manufacturing method to avoid or reduce the degree of destruction of the porous hole structure. Purpose of the invention and description: The purpose of the present invention is to propose a method that reduces or eliminates the use of inert gas as the 3 paper size applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 male — !! .----- -Participation -------- Order --------- § (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) Printed by the Employee Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 511230 A7 --- --- 2Z_ V. Description of the invention () Carrier gas is a method for depositing a porous hole film with a low dielectric constant to avoid or reduce the degree of destruction of the porous hole structure. According to the above object, the present invention A formation method is proposed. This method first places a substrate in a chemical vapor reaction chamber, and then uses a first reaction gas, which simultaneously serves as a reactant and a carrier gas. Then, a second reaction gas is loaded, It is a liquid at normal temperature and pressure. This second reaction gas uses the aforementioned first reaction gas as a carrier gas, and is loaded into the above-mentioned chemical vapor deposition chamber with a substrate. Finally, the first reaction gas and Second reaction gas in chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber The reaction is performed, and a porous hole film with a low dielectric constant is deposited. According to the above purpose, the present invention proposes another method of forming. This method firstly places a substrate in a chemical vapor reaction chamber, and then uses a first A reaction gas, which simultaneously serves as both an oxidant and a carrier gas. Next, a second reaction gas and a third reaction gas are loaded, and the second reaction gas and the third reaction gas are the carrier gas using the aforementioned first reaction gas, The above-mentioned chemical vapor deposition chamber with a substrate is loaded.

However, when reducing the line spacing of the metal interconnects in the device, there will be a serious problem of RC delay. One of the solutions is to use a dielectric material with a low dielectric constant between the metal interconnects.

Description of the invention () (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page.) The traditional dielectric material is silicon dioxide, which has a dielectric constant of 3.9, and the dielectric constant of air is 1.0. Therefore, reducing the dielectric constant of the dielectric material can be solved not only from the material itself but also from the formed thin film structure. In other words, as long as the proportion of air in the film is increased, the dielectric constant of the entire film will be greatly reduced, that is, if the proportion of pores in the film is increased, the dielectric constant of the entire film will be greatly reduced. According to the foregoing, the porous hole material having a low dielectric constant has a porous hole structure that is the main reason for its low dielectric constant. Once the porous hole structure disintegrates, the dielectric constant of the thin film formed by this material rises sharply and becomes a high dielectric constant. As the hole structure disintegrates, the magnitude of the dielectric constant rises. The formation of such porous hole films with low dielectric constant can be divided into two categories: one is spin coating method, and the other is chemical vapor deposition method. When the chemical vapor deposition method is used, since most of the precursors of the porous hole film are in a liquid state, a carrier gas needs to be used to load the precursors into the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber. However, when the porous hole film is deposited by chemical vapor deposition, the porous hole structure is often damaged to a considerable extent, or even collapsed. The reason is that the use of a carrier gas increases the ion concentration. The traditional method of printing by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs is that the carrier gas used is inert gas. However, during chemical vapor deposition, this inert carrier gas is impacted by high-energy electrons, which will ionize and become ions . Especially monoatomic inert gases, such as helium and argon, are more easily ionized than diatomic molecules. If the carrier gas is a diatomic molecule such as nitrogen, it may dissociate into a single atom. The ions of this carrier gas will greatly increase the ion concentration in the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber. 7 This paper size is in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm). Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Cooperatives. 511230 A7 B7_ V. Description of the invention The degree of the porous hole film deposited on the substrate is greatly increased by the ion bombardment, and the degree of cross-link of the material of the porous hole film is greatly improved. This in turn causes disintegration of the pore structure. In addition, the single atom dissociated from the carrier gas will react with the precursor or the product after the reaction to form a source of pollution, which will cause the quality of the film to decrease. Therefore, the main object of the present invention is not to use an additional such carrier gas, or to reduce the amount thereof, so as to reduce the ion concentration in the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber. To achieve such a purpose, a specific embodiment of the present invention for forming a porous hole film having a low dielectric constant is stated as follows. As shown in the first figure, a substrate 120 is placed on a platform 110 in a chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber 100 to deposit a porous hole film having a low dielectric constant thereon. A gas is supplied by a gas source supplier 130, and this gas has a dual function here. One is to act as a reactant, that is, to react with the guide in front of the porous film to form a porous film on the substrate; the other is to serve as a carrier. Gas, because most of the conductive material before the porous hole film is liquid, the previous conductive material is loaded into the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber 100 through this carrier gas. This gas flow rate is controlled by the mass flow controller 140, and its flow rate is preferably between about 500 and 1500 seem. This gas flows through the injection valve 170 and carries the precursor before vaporization into the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber 100. A precursor is formed from the precursor supply 150 to form the porous hole film having a low dielectric constant. The flow rate of the previous guide is controlled by the liquid flow controller 160, and its flow rate is preferably between about 400 and 80 Sccm. The previous guide is vaporized through the injection valve 170 and then carried into the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber 100 by a carrier gas. 8 This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ----- I ----- installation -------- order --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 511230 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention () (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Finally, turn on the RF power supply 180 in the chemical vapor deposition reaction chamber 100 A plasma is formed, and a porous hole film layer having a low dielectric constant is formed on the substrate 120. The power of the RF power source 180 is preferably between about 300 and 800W. The above-mentioned dual-function gas may be an oxidant, such as oxygen, or nitrogen oxide, or a mixed gas of the foregoing gases. However, nitric oxide is preferred because oxygen can easily react thermally with the precursor to produce by-products. In addition, this gas can also be a silicide that is gaseous at normal temperature and pressure, and this gaseous silicide is also one of the precursors of the porous cavity membrane. Furthermore, this gaseous silicide can be mixed with oxidants (such as oxygen and nitrogen oxide) to form this dual-function gas. In addition, the above dual-function gas may be mixed with a small amount of inert gas, such as a mixed gas composed of helium, argon, nitrogen, or any combination thereof. At this time, as the reactant and carrier gas, such as oxygen and nitrogen oxide, the flow rate is preferably between 200 and 600 seem; the flow rate of the inert gas is preferably between 200 and 400 seem.
