Abstract

A deposition system includes a process chamber and a surrounding movable shield that controls a variable gas conductance path. Gas is introduced in a ring surrounding the periphery of a substrate. Gas is introduced into the chamber parallel to the substrate. Gas flux on the substrate is controlled by controlling the conductance of an exit path from the chamber. Ions and reactive atoms are generated for an atomic layer deposition process. A DC bias is created on the substrate to attract ions. A backside gas increases thermal coupling between the substrate and its support. The detection of a chamber pressure change is used to automatically control introduction of reactant gas into the chamber. One reactant gas is used to purge another reactant gas from the chamber. Valves are configured and controlled to selectively introduce gas into the chamber.

540093 A7 五、發明説明(彳) 發明部份 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 本發明係有關進步之薄膜沉積裝置及方法,用於半導 體處理及有關之技術上。 背景 隨積體電路(I C )尺寸之縮小,在低沉積溫度上沉 積具有優良之階覆蓋之保形之薄膜層之能力變爲更加重要 。薄膜層用於例如Μ〇S F E T閘介質,D R A Μ電容器 介質,黏著促進層,擴散障壁層,及供其後沉積步驟用之 種子層。需要低溫處理,例如,用以防止蔭蔽接面之不需 要之擴散,更佳控制一些反應,並防止先沉積之材料及其 介面變壞。 在筒寬高比之溝及通孔,諸如半導體晶片之金屬化層 中所用者,具有優良階覆蓋之保形薄膜之需求特別重要。 例如,銅互接技術需要連續之薄膜障壁層及連續之薄膜銅 種子層,以塗覆絕緣介質中所構製之溝及通孔之表面,然 後由電化學沉積(E C D或電鍍)法以銅塡於此等特色中 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製540093 A7 V. Description of the invention (彳) Inventive part (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) The present invention is an advanced thin film deposition device and method for semiconductor processing and related technologies. Background As the size of integrated circuit (IC) shrinks, the ability to deposit conformal thin film layers with excellent step coverage at low deposition temperatures becomes more important. The thin film layer is used in, for example, MOS F E T gate dielectric, DR A M capacitor dielectric, adhesion promotion layer, diffusion barrier layer, and seed layer for subsequent deposition steps. Low temperature processing is needed, for example, to prevent unwanted diffusion of the shadow interface, to better control some reactions, and to prevent the previously deposited material and its interface from being damaged. For use in trench aspect ratios and vias, such as metallized layers of semiconductor wafers, the need for conformal films with excellent step coverage is particularly important. For example, copper interconnect technology requires a continuous thin film barrier layer and a continuous thin copper seed layer to coat the surface of trenches and vias constructed in an insulating medium, and then to copper by electrochemical deposition (ECD or electroplating)塡 Printed in these characteristics by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs

〇 需要高度保形,連續之障壁層,以防止銅擴散進入鄰 近之半導體(即矽)材料或介質中。障壁層亦常用作黏著 層,用以促進介質及銅種子層間之黏合。低介質常數(即 低k )介質普通用以減小線間及線內電容及竄擾,但常遭 受黏著較差及熱穩定性低於傳統氧化物介質,使適當黏著 層之選擇更關緊要。一非保形之障壁層,或具有不良之階 本紙張尺度適用中.國國家標準(CNS ) A4規格(210X297公釐) -4- 540093 A7 _B7___ 五、發明説明(2 ) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 覆蓋或不連續之階覆蓋之障壁層會導致銅擴散,及電流漏 於相鄰金屬線之間,或障壁至介質或障壁至種子層介面處 分開,二者對產品壽命及性能有不利影響。障壁層亦應均 勻薄,以最精確轉移其下之溝及通孔側壁形狀至其後之種 子層,並具有低電阻係數(例如p < 5 0 0 // Ω -

The barrier layer is also often used as an adhesion layer to promote adhesion between the dielectric and the copper seed layer. Low dielectric constant (ie, low-k) dielectrics are commonly used to reduce line-to-line and line-to-line capacitance and crosstalk, but they often suffer from poor adhesion and lower thermal stability than traditional oxide dielectrics, making the selection of an appropriate adhesive layer even more critical. A non-conformal barrier layer, or a paper with a poor grade. The national standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -4- 540093 A7 _B7___ 5. Description of the invention (2) (Please read the back first Please fill in this page again) Covered or discontinuous stepped barrier layers will cause copper diffusion and current leakage between adjacent metal lines, or barrier-to-dielectric or barrier-to-seed interface separation. Product life and performance have an adverse effect. The barrier layer should also be uniformly thin to most accurately transfer the shape of the trenches and vias below it to the subsequent seed layer, and have a low resistivity (such as p < 5 0 0 // Ω-c m) to reduce its effect on the overall conductivity of the copper interconnect structure. A highly conformal, low-density, continuous seed layer with low defect density is required to prevent void spots from forming in the copper wire. The seed layer carries the plating current and is used as a nuclear aggregation layer. Emptiness points can result from discontinuities or other defects in the seed layer, or they can be formed by the seed layer hanging from the top of features, trenches, and through holes. Void points have an adverse effect on the resistance, electromigration, and reliability of copper wires. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Traditional film deposition technologies, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD), are increasingly unable to meet the demand for advanced films. PVD, such as sputtering, is used to deposit conductive films on low cost and relatively low substrate temperatures. Unfortunately, PVD is essentially a line-of-sight processing, which produces poor step coverage in trenches and vias with a wide aspect ratio. Advances in PV technology to deal with this problem have led to high cost, complexity, and reliability issues. The CVD process can be modified to provide a conformal film with improved step coverage. Unfortunately, CVD processing usually requires high processing temperatures, which leads to increased impurity concentrations and poor utilization of precursors (or reagents), which leads to higher costs for owners. Atomic layer Shen Nong .. (ALD), or Atomic Layer Chemical Vapor Deposition (AL · —CVD) is another traditional CVD method for depositing thin and thin paper. The size of the paper applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297) ^ 一 —-5- 540093 A7 ____ B7 V. Description of the invention (3) Film. ALD has several advantages over PVD or traditional CVD. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) ALD can be lower than Temperature (this is in line with the industrial trend towards lower temperatures), has high precursor utilization efficiency, can produce conformal thin film layers (that is, 100% order coverage in theory), can be controlled on an atomic scale Thin film thickness, and can be used for "nano engineering" complex thin films. A typical ALD process is very different from a traditional CVD process. In a typical CVD process, two or more reactant gases are mixed together in a deposition chamber. Here, these react in the gas phase and are deposited on the surface of the substrate, or they react directly on the surface of the substrate. CVD deposition takes place over a specific period of time, depending on the required thickness of the deposited film. Because of this Specific time is As a function of the flow rate of reactants entering the room, the time required may be different in each room. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs ... ..... i In a typical ALD process deposition cycle, each reactant gas is sequentially introduced into the chamber, so no gas phase mixing occurs. A single layer of the first reactant is physically or chemically adsorbed on the substrate surface The excess of the first reactant can be assisted by the extraction of inert polyester gas. A second reactant is introduced into the deposition chamber and reacts with the first reactant to react through the self-limiting surface to produce a single layer of the required film Once the initially adsorbed reactant completely reacts with the second reactant, the self-limiting reaction stops. The excess second reactant can also be extracted with the help of inert polyester gas. Repeat the deposition cycle as needed to obtain the required film thickness. By simply calculating the number of deposition cycles, the accuracy (thickness) of the film thickness to the atomic layer can be controlled. The precursors of physical adsorption are only weakly attached to the substrate. Chemical adsorption is strong, and the bonding required is more. When the adsorption Precursor molecules and living Surface localization The dimensions of this paper are in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm)-6-540093 Α7 B7 V. Description of the invention (4) Chemical adsorption occurs during chemical reactions. Chemical adsorption usually includes self-protonation A weakly bonded complex (part of the precursor) leaves unsatisfied bonds that can be used to react with an active surface position. The matrix material can affect chemisorption. In current dual-inlaid copper interconnect structures, A barrier layer, such as molybdenum (buta) or nitrided nitride (butan), must always be simultaneously covered with dioxide (Sio2), low-k dielectric, nitride etch stop layer, and any underlying metal, such as copper. Materials often exhibit different chemical fi * behaviors, especially oxide to metal. Moreover, surface cleanliness is important for proper chemisorption, as impurities can occupy surface bonding sites. Incomplete chemical adsorption will produce porous films, incomplete step coverage, poor adhesion between the deposited film and its underlying substrate, and low film density. The A L D treatment temperature needs to be carefully selected. The first reactant is fully adsorbed (eg, chemically adsorbed) on the surface of the substrate, and the deposition reaction occurs with sufficient growth rate and film purity. Too high a temperature will cause desorption or decomposition of the first reactant (causing impurities to mix in). Too low temperatures can lead to incomplete chemical adsorption of the first precursor, slow or incomplete deposition reactions, no deposition reactions, or poor film quality (eg, high resistivity, low density, poor adhesion, and / or High impurity content). Traditional A L D processing has several disadvantages. First, because the treatment is a complete heat treatment, the choice of the appropriate treatment temperature is often limited to a narrow temperature window. Second, small temperature windows limit the choice of precursors available. Third, the metal precursors suitable for the temperature window are often halides (for example, compounds containing chlorine, fluorine, or bromine), which are rotten-corrosive and can cause reliability problems at metal interconnections. Fourth, gas hydrogen (Η 2) or elemental zinc (Z η) is usually used in Chinese paper standards (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm).

Description of the invention (5) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Used as The second reactant acts as a reducing agent to return the metal compound in the first reactant to the desired oxidation state of the final film. Unfortunately, Η 2 is an ineffective reducing agent due to its chemical stability, and Z η has low volatility and is generally not compatible with 1C manufacturing methods. Therefore, although ordinary ALD reactors are suitable for high-temperature A L D, the advancement of A L D processing technology is limited. Plasma-reinforced A L D is also known as atomic-strengthened atomic layer deposition (R E A L D), which is proposed to deal with the traditional thermal A L D temperature limit. For example, in U.S. Patent No. 5,916, 3 65, the second reactant is passed through a radio frequency (RF) glow discharge or plasma to decompose the second reactant and form a group of reactive atomic clusters, which is driven at a lower processing temperature. Deposition reaction. More information on plasma-enhanced ALD is included in "Plasma-enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition for Interconnecting Diffusion Barriers T a and T i", by SM Rossnagel, Vacuum Science and Technology, B 1 8 (4), July / August 2000, 2016-2020 pages. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs However, the plasma enhanced A L D still has several disadvantages. First, this maintains a heat treatment similar to that of A L D because the substrate temperature provides the required activation energy and, therefore, the primary control of the deposition reaction. Second, although it can be processed at low temperatures, higher temperatures are still used to produce a reasonable growth rate and the plutonium output is acceptable. This temperature is still too high for some films made with IC, especially for polymer-based low-k media (this is only stable at temperatures up to 2000 ° C or below). Third, metal precursors, especially giant (T a), often still contain chlorine and oxygen impurities, which results in low-density or porous films with poor barrier behavior and chemical instability. Fourth, similar to the above-mentioned ordinary sequential ALD processing, plasma-strengthened ALD processing is basically applicable to this paper standard. National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (210X297 mm) " ~ -8 ^ 540093 A7 _ ___B7 5 The invention description (6) is slow, because it contains at least one reactant gas and at least two scrubbing or pumping steps. This uses common valve and chamber technology, which takes several minutes. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page.) The ordinary A L D reactor containing a plasma reinforced A L D reactor contains a base that can be moved vertically to achieve a reduced processing space. This is very important for A L D. Small spaces are easier and faster to evacuate (eg excess reagents) than large spaces, and process gas can be quickly switched. Moreover, fewer precursors are needed to complete chemisorption during the deposition period. For example, the reactors of U.S. Patent No. 6,174,377 and European Patent No. 1,052,309 A 2 are characterized by a smaller processing space above a larger substrate transfer space. In practice, a normal transfer sequence involves transporting a substrate into the transfer space and placing it on a movable base. The base is then raised vertically to form the bottom of the processing space, and thereby moving the substrate into the processing space. As such, the movable base has at least one vertical movement and possibly a second degree of freedom of rotation (to obtain uniformity in high temperature processing). Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics The ordinary ALD reactor has major disadvantages. First, the common A L D reactor has complex base requirements because many facilities (such as heater power lines, temperature monitor lines, and coolant channels) need to be connected to and placed within a moving base. Second, in the case of plasma-enhanced ALD, the efficiency of atomic group transfer for depositing conductive films is greatly reduced in the downstream structure. Here, the atomic group that generates the plasma is contained in a separate container, which is far from the main processing. Room (see US Patent 5, 916, 3 5 5). The recombination of both the gas phase and the wall reduces the flow rate of available radicals to the matrix. In the case of atomic hydrogen (Η), the two atoms are combined to produce diatomic Η 2, a far less effective reducing agent. The known A L D reactor has other disadvantages. This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) '-9-540093 Μ B7 V. Description of the invention (7) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Therefore, it is necessary to improve the ALD The reactor makes ALD more suitable for commercial IC manufacturing.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a deposition system includes a processing chamber, a fixed base for supporting a substrate in the processing chamber, and a movable cover forming at least a part of a surrounding wall defining the processing chamber. The movement of the cover to the fixed base controls a variable gas conduction path for the gas to flow through the processing chamber, thereby adjusting the relative pressure between the processing chamber and the external space. A movable hood according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a plurality of gas passage openings for introducing various processing gases into the processing chamber. In some embodiments, the removable hood may also or additionally include an internal cooling or heating channel for temperature control. The fixed base of the embodiment of the present invention printed by the Employees' Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs includes an electrostatic chuck (ESC) to strengthen the cross-linked RF power to the substrate, which can improve ion generation, ion energy control, and uniform transfer of ions. .

Description of the invention (3) Adhesive layer, seed layer, low Dielectric equivalent (low k) films, high dielectric constant (high k) films, and other films used in advanced integrated circuit manufacturing technology. The deposition system of an embodiment of the invention provides several advantages. The system can trigger a deposition reaction by a non-temperature machine, resulting in the deposition of higher quality films at lower temperatures. The deposition processing parameters, including the pressure during the deposition period, can be adjusted quickly and more effectively than is normally possible, resulting in self-synchronous deposition and higher output. By connecting RF power to a fixed base, the system can improve ion generation, ion energy control, ion space uniformity, and uniform ion transfer for modulation and ion-induced deposition. The fixed base / removable hood construction simplifies the overall system design. Compared with an ordinary heavy and movable base, the cover in one embodiment of the present invention can be quickly and precisely positioned by a linear motor to improve performance. This system allows gas to pass through multiple points, possibly including introduction through the hood, which increases the flexibility of the deposition process design. Moreover, a smaller system volume can be achieved with a fixed base / removable cover construction.

This process is repeated to make a layer of any thickness. To reduce processing time, separate polyester is not used The gas is to purify the first reactant gas in the chamber, and then introduce a second gas containing the second reactant.

In one embodiment, the ring is movable. The gas inlet and the valve are described. Various arrangements. According to one embodiment of the present invention, instead of controlling the gas flow rate on the substrate in the chamber by controlling the flow rate of the gas upstream of the processing chamber, the temperature between the processing chamber and a lower pressure space outside the processing chamber is controlled.

Invention Description (16) 3 5 4 Capacitor 3 7 4 Switch (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Example Detailed description of basic ALD reactor design Figure 1 is the essential diagram of the innovative ALD reactor 2. The reactor 2 includes a fixed base 4 which may include an electrostatic chuck (ESC) 6 on which a substrate 8 is placed. The substrate 8 is usually a semiconductor wafer (such as silicon), but may be a metallized glass substrate or other substrate. A chamber cover 10 and E S C 6 respectively define the top and bottom boundaries of the processing chamber 12. The surrounding wall of the chamber 12 is delimited by a movable cover 14 which is connected to a plurality of cover support legs 16. The space of the processing chamber 12 is smaller than the batch reactor of the prior art, but can be the same size as the single wafer system of the prior art. However, the configuration of the reactor 2 provides the entire space of the reaction chamber 2, which may be smaller than that of the prior art reactor, while providing a small space of the processing chamber 12 at the same time. The small space in the print processing room 12 of the Employees' Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs achieves the advantages of the small processing space mentioned above, including rapid pumping, rapid processing gas switching, and less precursors to complete chemical adsorption. However, the space in the processing chamber 12 cannot be arbitrarily small because the substrate 8 still needs to be transferred into and out of the processing chamber 12. In Fig. 1, the fixed position of the base 4 and its supporting hardware simplifies the overall design of the reactor 2, so that it can be easily used and maintained and its performance can be improved. Compared with the huge movable base of the advanced technology reactor, the cover 14 contains less belonging hardware and is much lighter. This can precisely position the cover 14 to adjust the conductivity of the chamber 12 and facilitate extraction gas. This paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -19- 540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (17) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page} Room body 18 enclosure cover 14, The chamber cover 10 and the base 4 (including ESC 6) define an annular pump channel 20 outside the cover 14. During the process, the cover 14 makes the processing chamber 12 at low pressure and the annular chestnut channel under low pressure. Separate from 20, this is maintained at a lower pressure than the chamber to maintain a clean background environment in the reactor 2. The space of the chamber 12 is passed through a cover conducting upper path 22 and a cover conducting lower path 2 4 is connected to the annular pump channel 2 0. The upper path 22 and the lower path 2 4 are each defined by the corresponding features of the fixed components of the cover 14 and the reactor 2. In the embodiment shown in FIG. During the treatment period, the variable low-leakage path above the path 2 2 is defined by the inner arm of the cover 14 and the chamber cover 10. The lower path 2 4 is formed by a part of the cover 14 and the shadow ring 2 8 Defined, this is a variable-height leak path through one of the overlapping areas of the cover and the shadow ring: 26. The shadow ring 28 is separated from the ESC 6 and is shown in more detail in the following figure. The structure of the printed hood 14 and the shading ring 28 of the employee's consumer cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs can be changed to provide different conductivity of the lower path 24. As shown in Figure 2, this shows the hood and the shading ring of Figure 1. Various embodiments of the overlap region 26. The conductivity of the air flow is related to the restricted length and actual size of the path. For example, a shorter path with a larger cross-sectional area has a higher conductivity. The implementation shown in Figure 2 In the structure of the cover 14 and the shadow ring 28, a highest conductivity path 30, a second highest conductivity path 32, a third highest conductivity path 34, and a lowest conductivity path are generated. Road 3 6. The implementers of this art know that there are many other embodiments of the mask and shadow ring overlap area 36. Various mask positions are used throughout the innovative ALD process. The mask 14 is raised to its highest position (in conjunction with the shadow mask ring) 2 8) Make the base 8 can be introduced or moved.

The hood 1 4 lowers to its lowest position so that The chamber 12 can be quickly evacuated through the upper path 2 2 exposed to the vacuum of the annular pump zone 20. During the processing period, the cover 14 is placed in the middle position according to the gas transfer and conduction requirements. The movement of the cover 14 It can be used to precisely control the spatial relationship between the cover 14 and the shadow ring 28, so that the adjustable conductivity is mainly provided to the chamber 12 through the lower path 2 4 so that the pressure in the chamber 12 can be controlled accurately, even in the This is also true during processing, which is not possible with the prior art method of using a movable base, because the base 8 should not be moved vertically during the processing. This adjustable conductivity can also be quickly, accurately control the residence time of the gas introduced into the chamber 12 in the multi-flow rate, and reduce the waste of processing gas to a minimum. Basic gas introduction in the A L D reaction chamber The reactor 2 in Figure 1 supports gas introduction through multiple points, including top introduction, side introduction, or a combination of top and side introduction. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram showing that the top of the gas is introduced into the processing chamber 12 of the A L D reactor 2 in Figure 1. A top-mounted feeding device (not shown) has a single introduction point (or multiple introduction points) and optional additional devices (not shown), such as shower heads and / or spoilers, to ensure that the air is introduced at the top 3 8 Evenly distributed on the substrate. In addition, the device includes at least one path, and may include many paths. In addition, the device may include an intermediate channel to adjust the gas distribution and velocity.

Description of the invention (19) The gas channel in the body cover 1 4 4 In the inner wall of the cover 1 4 The holes are introduced into the processing chamber 12. The gas is introduced into a symmetrical shape around the substrate, and the design ensures that the gas flow 4 2 introduced from the side is evenly distributed. Moreover, before or during the introduction of the gas, the plane of the introduction of the gas can be adjusted perpendicularly with respect to the substrate 8, which can be used to optimize the gas distribution 42. Fig. 5 (a) is a schematic diagram and (b) is a planar diagram, showing that the top and sides of the gas are introduced into the processing chamber 1 2 of the A L D reactor 2 of Fig. 1. Innovative A L D processing gas including precursor and polyester gas can be introduced through the same introduction path or separate paths as required to optimize performance and layer quality. The basic electrostatic chuck assembly design of the A L D reaction benefit The reactor 2 of Fig. 1 can be used for the deposition process. Here, the activation energy of the surface reaction is provided by the ions generated in the plasma above the substrate. As such, atomic layer deposition may be ion-induced rather than thermally-induced. This can be deposited at much lower temperatures than ordinary ALD systems. Assuming that the processing temperature is sufficiently low, the base 4 may include an electrostatic chuck (ESC) 6 to improve temperature control and radio frequency (RF) power cross-linking.

Figure 6 is the control system of the base 4 of Figure 1 Figure 4 shows the outline of the substrate. The substrate 8 is placed on the annular sealing lip 4 6 to define a back gas space 4 8 between the substrate 8 and the top surface 50 of the ESC 6 of the base 4. The back gas is from the back gas source 5 2 flows along the back gas pipe 5 4 through the back gas passage 5 6 in the ESC 6 and enters the gas space 4 8. The back gas is provided with a medium for heat energy transfer between the substrate 8 and the ESC 6 to improve the substrate 8 and Heat flow between ESC 6. A flow control device, such as a pressure controller 5 8 maintains the back gas at a constant pressure, so as to ensure uniform substrate temperature.

Description of the invention (21) Bias the electrostatic chuck 6 of the base 4 in Figure 1. The first electrode 80 and the second electrode 82 are biased by different DC potentials to provide a "stuck" action. This keeps the substrate 8 (Figure 1) at E s before the ignition of the plasma and during the deposition. C 6 on. The bias design in Figure 7 can establish electrostatic attraction (ie, "stuck") at low bias, which is not enough to generate sufficient electrostatic attraction in a normal unipolar chuck. In FIG. 7, one end of the DC power source 86 is connected to the first electrode 80 through a first wire 88. The other end of the DC power source 86 is connected to the second electrode 82 through a second wire 90. Inductors 88 and 90 are used as R F filters. R F power (for example, 1 3 · 56 M Η z) is also supplied to the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 82 at the same time, and an RF generator 92 connected to the ground terminal 9 4 is used. A first capacitor 96 and a second capacitor 98 are connected between the RF generator 92 and the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 82, respectively. Capacitors 96 and 98 are used as DC filters to block DC voltage from power supply 86. The circuit 84 can improve the cross-linking of RF power to the substrate 8 during the processing period, because the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 82 embedded in the substrate 8 to the ESC 6 are close to each other (for example, 0 · 6 Μ-2 MM interval). Because the substrate 8 is so close to the first and second electrodes 80 and 82, the efficiency of the intermediate medium of the RF power transmission channel ESC 6 is higher than that of a normal reactor (here, the RF potential is applied to a longer distance from the substrate Electrode) is high.

(Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Details of the ALD reactor Figure 8, Figure 9, Figure 10, Figure 11, and Figure 12 show the innovative ALD reactor 1 00 outside and inside cut view. Figure 8 is a front perspective view of the reactor 100. Fig. 9 is a rear perspective view of the reactor 100. Figure 10 is a rear perspective view of the reactor viewed from below. Figure 11 is a cut-away view of the front of the reactor 100. FIG. 12 is a cut-away perspective view of another front of the reactor 100. FIG. Referring to Fig. 8, a substrate 8 (Fig. 12) is transferred through one of the slit valves 104 into the tank 102 and enters and exits the reactor 100 at the processing chamber 1 2 (Figs. 1 and 12). The base 8 is printed and mounted on the base by a plurality of lifting pins 108. The consumer property cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (for example, an electrostatic chuck assembly 100, as shown in Figures 11 and 12), or from the base Remove. In the mounted or unloaded position, the top of the lifting pin 108 extends through a hole in the electrostatic chuck (ESC) 6 to keep the substrate above the top surface of the ES C 6. In the processing position, the top of the lifting pin 108 exits below the top surface of the ESC6, so that the substrate 8 and E S C 6 can be contacted (Figures 1 1 and 12). Referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, the lift pin 108 extends downward from the processing chamber 12 in the reactor 100 through the electrostatic chuck 10 (including ESC6, a cooling plate 11 and a bottom plate 112) and To the outside below the reactor 1.0. The lift pins 108 are each connected to a lift pin stand 1 1 4 to coordinate their movements. The vertical movement of the lifting pin foot 1 1 4 is based on the paper size and applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -25-540093 A7 B7-—__ 丨 一--1 " " " " " " " " V. Description of the Invention (23) An off-axis lift pin actuator 1 1 6 (such as a pneumatic cylinder) is achieved. This controls the action of a tie rod 1 1 8 and tie rod 1 1 8 is connected to the lifting pin stand 1 1 4 by a peripheral joint 1 2 0, as shown in FIG. 10. The peripheral joint 1 2 0 transmits the lifting force to the lifting pin stand 1 1 4 without torque. Referring to Fig. 11, in order to facilitate the transfer of the substrate, a movable cover 14 needs to be in the loading position. Hood 1 4 uses a linear motor 1 2 2 to ascend or descend. This moves a linear motor output rod 1 2 4. This is connected by a collet 1 2 8 to the hood lifting foot 1 2 6. (best seen in the figure) 1 〇). A plurality of cover support legs 16 (FIG. 1 1) each extend through the cover support leg seals 1 30 and are connected between the cover lifter legs 1 2 6 and the cover 14. The axis of the linear motor 1 2 2 is aligned with the axis of the processing chamber 12, resulting in no net torque on the hood lifting foot 1 2 6. The lifting pin stand 1 1 4 rides on a part of the linear motor output rod 1 2 4 and is coaxial with the output rod 1 2 4 and the cover lifting leg 1 2 6. However, the lifting pin stand 1 1 4 is not affected by the movement of the rod 1 2 4 and this arrangement does not generate a net moment on the lifting pin 108. As mentioned above, the linear motor 1 2 2 provides actuation of the cover 14. This is different from ordinary movable bases, where a slower stepper motor is used for actuation. Ordinary stepping motors use a lead screw (possibly in conjunction with a gear train). This is slow but can move heavy mass to achieve the movement of the heavy base. The linear motor 1 2 2 does not use a gear train, but directly drives the load. The linear motor 1 2 2 includes multiple alternating magnets to achieve the movement of the output rod 1 2 4. The linear motor 1 2 2 can be a commercially available linear motor, and generally includes a sleeve with a coil and a movable The paper size surrounding the column is alternately applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Printing -26-540093 A7 B7 _ V. Description of the invention (24) Magnet. The Hall effect magnetic sensor is used to precisely move the control rod through the sleeve by applying a signal to the coil. In one embodiment, the precise position of the pulse wave control rod relative to the sleeve applied to the coil is well known. Since the cover 1 4 is lighter than the ordinary heavy base, the linear motor 1 2 2 provides high-performance positioning with a response time of a few milliseconds. The linear motor 1 2 2 therefore provides quicker response and more accurate hood positioning than conventional steppers or servo motors that can be used to actuate the bases of ordinary A L D reactors. Referring to FIG. 11, a pump, such as a turbomolecular pump 1, is maintained as low as printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and the background environmental pressure of several micrometers or less is placed in the annular pump channel 20 surrounding the hood 14. The pump 1 32 is connected to the reactor 100 at an angle, and a ring-shaped throat 13 2 is completely exposed to a narrow chest 13 16 behind the processing chamber 12 to maximize the conductivity therebetween. In this way, the chestnut trough with the diameter d & g 1 3 2 is most exposed to the height h (here, h < d), and the restrictions between the pump 13 2 and the chamber 12 are the smallest (see also 1 0 discussed below) ). In specific processing applications, a pump speed limiter 3 8 can be inserted into the pump throat 1 2 2 to limit the conductivity as required. In __stomach_ _ a pressure controlled throttle (eg butterfly valve) can be used instead of $ _ @ limiter 1 3 8. The pressure in the pump tank 1 3 6 and the annular pump channel 2 is provided by a pressure sensor 1 mounted on the top surface of the reactor 100, and the top of the processing chamber 1 2 is covered by a chamber cover. 1〇 Defined.

The temperature of the lid 10 is controlled by the fluid flowing through the lid cooling / heating channels 1 4 6 (Fig. 1 1). One of the possible routes for the introduction of gas into the processing chamber 12 is through the three-way valve 1 4 8 of the shower head, which is installed at the center of the chamber cover 10. Another possible method of introducing gas into the processing chamber is through a hood gas channel 40. RF power is transferred to the electrodes in the ESC6 through an RF wire 150, and the wire 150 is shielded in an RF insulating tube 152. A gas medium (commonly referred to as the back gas) is provided to the ESC6 through a back gas valve 1 5 4 to improve thermal cross-linking between the ESC6 and the substrate 8. During processing, an optional shading ring 2 8 is parked on a part of ES C 6 and completely surrounds the peripheral edge of the substrate 8.

Description of invention (27) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Cooling plate 1 The temperature of 10 is controlled using a fluid flowing in multiple coolant channels 78, as shown in FIG. The upper surface of the cooling plate 1 10 is manufactured by Hai 1J® to manufacture multiple thermal cracks 1 84 or voids between E S C 6 and the cooling plate 1 10. The thermal crack 1 8 4 increases the temperature difference between E S C 6 and the cooling plate 1 10. This allows the temperature of E S C 6 to rise much higher than the bottom $ 1 1 2 temperature, which stays on the colder side. A more detailed diagram of the thermal crack 1 8 4 is discussed below, see FIG. 2 7. As shown in FIG. 13, the lower surface of the cooling plate 110 is connected to the upper surface of the bottom plate 112. The upper surface of the bottom plate 112 forms a lower wall of the cooling plate 110 and the coolant channel 78. A vacuum seal is maintained between the bottom plate 1 12 and the chamber body 18 by using a 10 ring to maintain a low pressure inside the reactor 100. An RF gasket 188 is between the bottom plate 112 and the chamber body 18, and is separated from the ring 1 8 in the lateral direction. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. One of the multiple lifting pins 108 is displayed at the exit processing position, and the top of the lifting pin 108 is below the top surface of ESC6. The lift pin 108 extends through the lift pin seal 190, which maintains a low pressure inside the reactor 100. A lifting pin washer 1 92 reduces friction during the vertical movement of the lifting pin 10 8 through the aligned holes of the bottom plate 1 12, the cooling plate 1 10, and E S C 6. In FIG. 13, the cover 14 is shown in the intermediate processing position. The processing chamber 12 is therefore bounded by a shower head 1 72 at the top, E S C 6 at the bottom, and a cover 14 at the sides to define the plasma 194. The hood 14 contains a hood gas passage 40 and is connected to the hood support leg 16 using a hood cap 1 9 6. The hood support legs 16 each extend through the hood support leg seals.

Description of the invention (28) 1 30, this maintains a low pressure inside the reactor 100. Multiple shroud supports The leg washers 1 9 8 reduce friction during the vertical movement of the support legs 16 through the holes in the base plate 1 12. A shaded ring hook 2000 is connected to the lower part of the cap 196. The shading ring hook 200 is intersected with the shading ring 28, which completely surrounds the peripheral edge of the ESC module 106, and is placed on the inclined surface 202 of the processing tool 18 2 of the processing tool 18 2. During the deposition on the substrate 8, the shadow ring 28 protects the lower part of the ESC module 106. The shadow ring 2 8 also defines a peripheral portion near the edge of the base body 8 to prevent deposition there. The shade ring 28 is also responsible for defining the chamber conductivity. The following is a more detailed view of the treatment tool slope 2 0 2, see FIG. 16. In FIG. 13, the gas flow rate between the two leakage path modulation processing chamber 12 and the annular pump channel 20 is mostly composed of the chamber body 18, the chamber cover 10, and the ESC module 1 〇 6 Define. Due to the different pressures between the processing chamber 12 and the annular pump channel 20, air leakage occurred. A cover conducts the upper path 2 2-the side is defined by the inner upper surface of the cover 14 and the other side by the chamber cover 10 and the outer surface of the shower head 1 2. One cover conducts the lower path 2 4-the side is defined by the lower part of the cover 14, the surface of the cover cap 196, and the shading ring hook 200, and the other side is defined by the surface of the shading ring 28. The upper path 22 leads from the processing chamber 12 to the portion 2 0 4 above the ring pump channel 20, and the lower path 22 leads from the processing chamber 12 to the portion 2 6 below the ring pump channel 20. The hood 14 can be moved vertically to rise into the upper part of the annular pump passage 20, or to fall into the lower part of the annular pump passage 20, 2006. When the cover 1 4 moves, the conductivity of the upper path 2 2 and the lower path 2 4 change.

Description of Invention (29). The change in conductivity can be controlled, and the pressure in the processing chamber 12 can be changed with the control methods required for the various steps of the atomic layer deposition processing sequence. Hood operation Unlike conventional ALD reactors, reactor 2 includes a fixed base 4 (see Figure 1). For example, the reactor 100 of FIG. 12 includes an ESC module 106. Through the use of a movable cover 14, it is convenient to move the substrate 8 into the processing chamber 12 of the reactor 100, and the cover also plays an important role during the processing period. Throughout the A L D process, various hood positions are used. Figs. 14, 4, 16, and 17 show detailed sectional views to the right of the chamber portion 156 of Fig. 13, showing the cover 14 in a substrate loading cover position 208 (Fig. 14 ·) , A low-conductivity processing cover position 2 10 (Figure 15), a high-conductivity processing cover position 2 1 2 (Figure 15), and a polyester cover position 2 1 4 (Figure 1 ^ 7 _). In the loading cover position 2 0 8 of FIG. 14, the cover support leg 16 is raised by the linear motor 1 2 2 (FIG. 8). When the cover 14 is raised to a certain point, the shadow ring hook 2 0 0 contacts the shadow ring 28 and the ring is also raised. The mask 1 4 and the shadow ring 2 8 then rise together. The hood 14 enters the ring pump channel 20 above. The cover 14 and the shade ring 28 can be raised until the shade ring 2 8 contacts the shower head lip 1 7 4, which prevents the shade ring 2 8 from contacting the shower head 17 2. The loading cover position 2 0 8 allows the base body 8 to enter the tank 1 2 (Fig. 13) through the base body to load (or unload) the processing chamber 12. For example, the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 size (210X 297 mm) is applied to this paper size (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page).

Description of the invention (30) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Load the substrate 8 in the processing room 1 2 and 1 A substrate blade or paddle (not shown) carries the substrate 8 into the processing chamber 12. The lift pin 108 is raised by a lift pin actuator 1 16 (Fig. 10) to contact the base 8 and lift the base off the top surface of the blade. The leaf plate then exits the chamber 1 2 by entering the groove 10 2. The lift pin 108 is withdrawn through the top surface of the E S C 6 so that the substrate 8 can be placed on the E S C 6 as shown in FIG. 14. Following a similar procedure, the substrate 8 is unloaded from the chamber 12. In another embodiment, the shading ring 28 is not used, and the cover 14 and other surfaces that are fixed or variable form a variable conduction path. In some embodiments, the cover 14 can be lowered sufficiently, and the concrete base 8 can pass over the top edge of the cover 14 to achieve the loading position. Once the substrate 8 has been loaded into the processing chamber 12, the cover 14 is lowered by a linear motor 12 (Fig. 8) for processing. It is shown in Figure 15 that it is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The position 2 of the guide processing cover 2 1 0 shows the position of the cover 14 and the shadow ring 28. At this time, the shadow ring 2 8 contacts the processing tool 1 8 2. One of the shaded rings 2 8 is an oblique shaded ring seat 2 1 6 which is placed on the treatment tool inclined surface 2 2 of the treatment tool 1 8 2. This is the only contact point between the shadow ring 28 and the processing tool 18.2. The air gap separates the shadow ring 28 from each edge of the processing tool slope 2 0 2 of the processing tool 1 8 2. The air gap between the shading ring 28 and the processing tool 18 2 allows the shading ring 28 and the processing tool 18 2 to have different thermal expansions during processing. Treatment The slanted surface of the slanted surface 202 is used to interact with the slanted surface of the shadowed ring 28 to help position the shadowed ring 28 at the center. The edge of the base 8 is uniformly shaded by the edge of the shadowed ring 28. Qin 1 4 When the descent enters the processing position, the hood conducts the upper path 2 2 This paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (2 丨 0X297 public celebration) 540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (31) (Please read first Note on the back, please fill out this page again) and the cover conduction path, as described above in relation to Figure 1 3. Although the conductivity of the lower path 2 4 can be reduced to zero (1 5), during the deposition period, the upper path 2 2 usually forms a low-conductivity leak path, and the lower path 2 4 usually forms a high conductivity. Rate leak path (Figure 16). By changing the position of the relationship between the cover 14 and the shadow ring 28, the conductivity outside the chamber 12 can be adjusted. This modulation in turn changes the pressure in chamber 12. The position 2 1 2 of the high-conductivity processing mask shown in FIG. 16 shows the positions of the mask 14 and the shadow ring 28 in the intermediate step of the A L D process. The lower path 2 4 includes several different areas: a plurality (three in this embodiment) of a fixed conductivity area 2 2 0 (a fixed gap between the shaded ring hook 2 0 0 and the shaded ring 28) and a plurality of ( In this embodiment, two) The variable conductivity regions 2 2 2 (variable gap) are interleaved. Can accurately control (the position of the cover 1 4 is precisely set by the linear motor 1 2 2) the space of the fixed conductivity region 2 2 0 and the variable conductivity region 2 2 2, and the lower path 2 4 can be adjusted according to the needs during processing Conductivity, and therefore the pressure in chamber 12. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In the polyester hood position 2 1 4 in Fig. 17, the hood support legs 16 are lowered by the linear motor 1 2 2 (Fig. 8). The hood 14 and the shading ring hook 200 descend into the portion 206 below the ring-shaped rock passage 20. The shadow ring 28 is held on the processing tool 1 8 2. The upper cover conduction path 2 2 and the lower cover conduction path 2 4 become high-conductivity paths. Due to the manufactured high conductivity and the pressure of the annular pump channel 20 is lower than the chamber 12, the polyester cover position 2 1 4 can quickly extract the gas in the processing chamber 12 to the annular pump channel 20. As described above, the linear motor 1 2 2 (FIG. 8) actuates the cover 14. This can quickly and accurately change the conductance of the hood conducting upper and lower paths 22 and 24.

In some embodiments, a throttle valve (ie, a butterfly valve, a variable position gate valve, a pendulum valve, etc.) placed at the pump throat 1 3 4 (Figure 1 3) can also be used in conjunction with the movable cover 14 by a modulation pump The maximum pump speed of 132 (Fig. 12) achieved a rapid change in the pressure in the processing chamber 12. The throttle valve expands the range of pressure that can be achieved in the processing chamber 12 and provides "rough adjustment" of the pressure in the processing chamber 12, while the cover 14 provides "fine adjustment" of the pressure. The shower head for gas introduction and temperature control and The innovative hardware support gas of the ALD reactor 100 (Figure 11) is introduced into the processing chamber 12 through a number of points. The main introduction point is through the top of the reactor 100, especially through the three-way shower head. Valve 1 4 8 (mounted on the cover 10) and shower head 172 (best shown in Figure 13).

Description of the invention (offender) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Bypass the gas pipe 2 3 4 to the vacuum pump 2 3 6. The use of the vacuum pump 2 3 6 allows the carrying and cleaning gas to flow in a steady state even if these do not flow into the chamber 12. This avoids disruption of the gas flow caused by the long settling time of opening and closing the gas source. A shower head three-way valve 1 4 8 controls the entrance and exit of the gas pipe 2 3 8 to the processing chamber 12. As seen in FIG. 11, a two-way valve 1 4 8 placed in the center of the cover 10 provides at least two different advantages. First, the gas introduced into the chamber 12 can be quickly switched with minimal loss or delay. Second, the gases are isolated from each other outside the chamber 12, resulting in non-reactant cross-flow pollution. A first on-off valve 2 40 is connected between a second on-off valve 2 4 2 and a first end of a third on-off valve 2 4 4. The other ends of the second and third on-off valves 2 4 2 and 2 4 4 are connected to a first precursor source 2 4 6. The first on-off valve 24 0 is also connected between the first three-way valve 2 30 and the shower head three-way valve 1 48 through a gas pipe 2 48 and a gas pipe 250 respectively. The precursor source 2 4 6 can be isolated by closing the on-off valves 2 4 2 and 2 4 4. This can be performed, for example, to replace the precursor source 2 4 6. In this case, the on-off valve 240 can be closed or opened, and the radon gas can be printed into the room 12 through the three-way valve 230 and printed by the employee's consumer cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. During the deposition, the first on-off valve 240 was normally closed, and the second and third on-off valves 242 and 244 were normally opened. The three-way valves 230, 232, and 148 are switched synchronously with the transfer of precursor or polyester gas to the chamber 12. When the precursor is transferred, the polyester three-way valve 2 3 2 is switched, so that the polyester-three gas flows to the vacuum pump 2 3 6 and the shower head three-way valve 1 4 8 is switched to the precursor side. At the same time, the three-way valve 2 30 is switched, so that the carrying gas can flow from the first gas source 2 2 6 through the gas pipe 2 4 8 and the paper size is applicable. National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) ) -36- 540093 A 7 B7 V. Description of the invention (34) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Close the valve 2 4 2 and enter the precursor source 2 4 6. The carrier gas picks up the precursors in the precursor source 2 4 6 and is usually picked up by foaming through the liquid source. The carrier gas containing the precursor now flows through the on-off valve 2.4, through the gas pipe 250, through the shower head three-way valve 148, through the chamber gas pipe 238, and enters the chamber 12. When the scrubbing gas is transferred, the first three-way valve 230 is switched, so that the entrained gas flows into the vacuum pump 2 36. Polyester three-way valve 2 3 2 and shower head three-way valve 1 4 8 switch, so that the polyester gas can flow from the second gas source 2 2 8 through the gas pipe 2 5 2 and the chamber gas pipe 2 3 8 and enter the chamber 1 2 in. The valve system 2 2 4 holds a gas pipe 2 4 8 filled with a carrier gas, a gas pipe 2 50 filled with a precursor, and a gas pipe 2 5 2 filled with a purge gas. This can quickly switch the gas source, greatly reducing the time for gas transfer to the chamber 12. The valve system 2 2 4 also reduces gas wastage to a minimum, as the gas tube does not need to be flushed between deposition steps. Moreover, during gas switching, as the tube is filled with gas, any gas clusters caused by the transition pressure spikes only contribute to the initial stage of chemisorption or surface reactions. Printed by the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Industrial Cooperative Cooperative. The implementer knew that there could be other embodiments of the valve system used to transfer gas to the reactor 100. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 18, two separate gas sources are shown, providing a carrier gas and a purge gas, which may be different gases. However, in some embodiments, the same gas may be used as the purge gas and as the precursor carrier gas. In this case, a separate gas source as shown in FIG. 18 may be used, or the first gas source 226 may be used alone in a single valve system 2 54, which has many components similar to the valve system of FIG. 18 Pieces, such as 槪 are shown in Figure 19. The valve system 2 5 4 can be used by the valve system. The paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -37- 540093 A7 _________— B7 V. Description of the invention (35) (Please read the notes on the back before filling This page) One of the 2 5 8 T joints 2 5 6 replaces the three-way valve 2 3 0 and is simplified, as shown in Fig. 20, which has many components similar to the valve system of Fig. 8 As shown in the valve system in Figure 18, the valve system 2 5 4 (Figure 9) and the valve system 2 5 8 (Figure 20) of the three-way valve of the shower head 4 8 control the cleaning gas or carry the precursor The gas flows into the chamber 12. As shown in valve system 2 5 4 (Figure 19) and valve system 2 5 8 (Figure 20), pump 2 36 can be used in some embodiments. In some embodiments, multiple precursor gas transfers may be required. The second embodiment of the multi-precursor transfer is shown in the essential diagrams of the valve system 26 in FIG. 21 and the valve system 2 62 in FIG. 22. The valve systems 26 (FIG. 21) and 262 (FIG. 22) each have many components similar to the valve system 224 of FIG. The valve systems 26 (Fig. 21) and 26 (Fig. 2 2) are shown to be constructed for two precursor sources, but can be modified for more precursor sources. In the valve system 260 (.Figure 21) and 262 (Figure 22), a consumer cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the First Ministry of Economic Affairs printed a two-way valve 2 6 4 to control the flow of carried gas to a second precursory source 2 6 6 in. A fourth on-off valve 268, a fifth on-off valve 270, and a sixth on-off valve 272 are connected and operated in the same manner as valves 240, 242, and 244, respectively, to control the flow of the carried gas through the second precursor Source 2 6 6. A gas pipe 2 7 4 similar to the gas pipe 2 4 8 is connected between the three-way valve 2 6 4 and the on-off valve 2 70. In Fig. 21, in addition to the first and second gas sources 2 2 6 and 2 2 8 of the valve system 2 2 4 of Fig. 18, the valve system 2 60 also includes a third gas source 2 76. A third three-way valve 278 is connected to the on-off valve 2 7 2 through a gas pipe 280, and controls the transfer of the second precursor through the gas pipe 2 8 2 to the lotus paper. The paper standard is applicable to the National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297) (Mm) -38- 540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (36) Three-way valve with bonnet 1 4 8 A fourth three-way valve 2 8 4 controls the transfer of the polyester gas through the gas pipe 2 5 2 and the gas pipe 2 8 6 to the three-way valve 2 7 8, which guides the polyester gas through the gas pipe 2 8 2 to Shower head three-way valve 14 8 ° In Figure 22, the valve system 2 6 2 shows the construction using a gas source 2 2 6 for both cleaning and carrying gas. The carrying gas is transferred from the gas source 2 2 6 through the gas pipe 2 8 8 to the three-way valve 2 6 4. The scrubbing gas is transferred through the gas pipe 2 5 2 to the third three-way valve 2 7 8 (and similar valves of any more precursors). The third end of the three-way valve 2 7 8 is connected to the shower head via the gas pipe 2 8 2. The three-way valve 2 7 8 thus controls the transfer of the second precursor and the polyester gas to the shower head three-way valve 1 4 8. Other embodiments of the valve systems of Figs. 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22 may be modified. The function of the shower head three-way valve 1 4 8 can be replaced by an on-off valve (similar to the valves 2 40, 2 4 2 and 2 4 4) and the equivalent network of accessories. The metering valve can be added to the branch line to adjust the flow rate of a specific branch line. The pressure sensor can be installed on the branch line and connected with a valve actuator to introduce a known amount of reactant. The valve can be operated at a fixed time to transfer the "charged" gas to the processing chamber 12. Traditional valves can be replaced by progressive designs, such as micro-motor (M E M) based valves or valve networks. The entire valve system can be Heating to prevent condensation of the reactants in the network. Figure 2 ^ 3 is a perspective sectional view of the embodiment of the shower head 172 2 for gas distribution. The shower head 172 is designed to have a larger size than the substrate 8 and ESC6 (Figure 1 3). Diameter, and therefore a large area. The shower head 1 7 2 includes a plurality of mounting holes 2 9 0 to facilitate the use of multiple fixing parts (see Figure 1 3. This paper size applies to Jinjia County (CNS) A4 size (210X297).

Description of Invention (37) (please first Read the notes on the back and fill in this page)) Fix the shower head 1 7 2 to the chamber cover 1 0. The shower head 1 2 also includes multiple pressure sensing holes 1 6 6 each for a sensor for sensing Process the pressure in the chamber 12. For example, fast chamber pressure sensor 1 4 2 and precision chamber pressure One of the sensors 1 4 4 (Figure 8) requires a shower head; [7 2 one of the pressure sensing holes 1 6 6. The shower head 1 7 2 also includes a shower head lip 1 74 around the edge of the shower head 1 72 to prevent The shade ring 2 8 hits the shower head 1 72. The shower head 1 7 2 also contains a cavity 2 9 2 at the center of the surface above the shower head 1 7 2 as shown in Figure 2 3 (a). The shower head 1 7 2 is fixed to the room When the lid is 10, the cavity 2 9 2 forms an inflatable chamber 1 70 (Figure 13). A plurality of shower head gas holes 176 are arranged in a pattern in the cavity 2 9 2 and are designed for a specific gas flow distribution. The cavity 2 9 2 The diameter is designed to be larger than the diameter of the base body 8 (Fig. 13). In the embodiment of Fig. 2 (b), the shower head 1 72 includes a cavity 2 9 4 which is the same as the cavity 2 9 of Fig. 2 (a). 2 is similar, but the cavity 2 9 4 has a diameter smaller than the diameter of the base body 8. The implementer knows that several different diffusion devices can be used and the direction of the gas flow can be modified as needed. As described above, the gas can also be introduced into the processing chamber 12 through the cover 14. This allows the gas to be introduced into the space of the processing chamber 12 in a cylindrical shape. The surroundings are as discussed above in relation to Fig. 4.

(Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The cover gas channel 40 is annular and extends completely around the bottom of the cover 14. The hood gas passage 40 is a high-conductivity channel, so that the introduced gas can be evenly distributed around the hood gas passage of the hood 14, and then introduced into the processing chamber 1 2 (Fig. 13). The gas is introduced into the chamber 12 through a plurality of gas flow holes 300, and these holes are spaced apart along the cover gas passage 40 and extend through the inner wall of the cover 14 into the processing chamber 12. The design of the gas introduction path of the hood assembly 2 96 ensures that the gas flows uniformly around the substrate, as discussed in relation to FIG. 4. The introduction of the gas through the hood 14 makes the design of the ALD process extremely flexible. In some embodiments, the same gas introduced through the shower head 172 may be introduced simultaneously through the hood 14 to provide improved cover in the processing chamber 12 and on the substrate 8 (FIG. 13). Or, in some embodiments, a gas may be introduced through the shower head 172, and at the same time, a different gas may be introduced through the cover 14 to improve gas isolation and accelerate gas circulation. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Before or during the gas inflow, the movement of the cover 14 allows the gas to be introduced into the processing chamber 12 at different planes parallel to the plane of the substrate 8. Hood movement can be used to optimize the gas flow distribution for a particular AL treatment. As discussed previously. Another task of the hood 14 is to limit the plasma 1 9 4 (Figure 13) during processing, which will cause the hood 14 to heat up. To maintain the hood at an acceptable temperature, a cooling / heating channel can be added to the design. This also helps prevent deposition on the cover 14. FIG. 25 is a perspective cross-sectional view of an embodiment of a hood assembly 300, including a hood cooling / heating channel 304 for the ALD reactor of FIG. 8. The paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ( 210X 297 mm) -41-540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (39) 100. The hood assembly 3 0 2 includes some hood support legs 16, which are solid and connected to the hood cap 196 at the bottom of the hood 14. Similar to the cover assembly 2 9 6 (this contains the gas channel 40) of FIG. 24, a cooling or force D hot fluid flows upward through at least one hollow cover support leg 3 0 6 and enters the cover 1 4, which extends through the cover The cap 19 6 enters the cooling / heating channel 3 0 4 of the cover 14. The hood cooling / heating channel 3 0 4 is annular and extends about two thirds of the length around the bottom of the hood 1 4. Cooling or heating fluid flows out of the hood 1 4 and supports the leg by at least another hollow hood (not shown), which is similar to the hollow hood support leg 3 0 6. The use of fluid flowing in the hood cooling / heating channel 3 0 4 to cool or heat the hood 14 can also improve the control of the temperature of the gas introduced into the processing chamber 12 through the hood 14. Fig. 2v6 is a perspective sectional view of the embodiment of the hood assembly 308, which includes the hood gas passage 40 and the hood cooling / heating passage 304, and is used in the ALD reactor 100 of Fig. 8. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 26, the gas passage 40 is placed above the cooling / heating passage 304. The hollow shroud support leg 3 06 extends through the shroud 196 and enters the shroud cooling / heating channel 3 04, and the radon fluid can flow through. Hollow hood support legs 2 9 8 extend through hood 196 and hood cooling / heating channel 3 0 4 and enter gas channel 40. Radon gas can be introduced from cover 1 4 through gas flow hole 300 and enter processing chamber 12 . The implementer understands that the hood assembly 308 may include a combination of a gas channel 40 and a cooling / heating channel 300, including a plurality of gas channels 40 and / or a plurality of cooling / heating channels 304. The design of the specific hood assembly embodiment is extremely flexible, and the reactor has a paper size of 100.

E S C module 106 can be designed separately to improve temperature control and radio frequency (R F) power cross-linking. Figure 7A is a cut-away perspective view of an embodiment of the electrostatic chuck assembly 106 of the ALD reactor 100 of Figure 8. The E S C module 106 includes an electrostatic chuck (ESC) 6, a cooling plate 1 10, and a bottom plate 1 12. The cooling plate 1 10 and the bottom plate 1 12 can be made into a ring shape, with overlapping central holes defining an inlet and outlet 3 10 together. This provides access to the central area below E S C 6. The base body 8 rests on an annular sealing lip 46, which surrounds one of the top surfaces 50 of ESC 6 on the periphery.

Description of the invention (μ) On the surface 50, a back gas space 48 is defined, which is defined by the surface 50, the density M # 46, and the back surface of the substrate 8. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page.) The back gas is supplied to the gas space 4 8 through the back gas inlet 3 1 2 that leads to the back gas valve 1 5 4. The gas valve 15 4 is placed outside the reactor 100, and is provided at the outer edge of the bottom plate 1 12 to provide easy access (Figure 8 and Figure 1 1). The back gas flows along the back gas pipe 54, which extends radially inward along the lower surface of the bottom plate 1 12. The gas tube 5 4 is bent upwards through the inlet and outlet 3 10 and is connected to the center of the bottom surface of the ES C 6 using the rear gas tube flange 3 1 4. The back gas flows through a back gas path 5 6 (this is at the center of the ESC6 and extends through the ESC6) to the gas space 48. A backside gas tube seal 3 1 6 inside the flange 3 1 4 maintains the pressure in the gas space 4 8. The back gas is responsible for the temperature control of the substrate 8.

Electrostatic chucks are usually made of dielectric materials (such as aluminum nitride A 1 Ν or polyimide). E S C 6 can be designed to have its bulk effect Rahbek (J R) effect, rather than dominated by Coulomb effect, because the j R effect provides a stronger and more effective electrostatic attraction. J R E S C generally has a bulk resistivity between 108 and 10 12 Ω cm, while Coulomb E S C usually has a bulk resistivity of greater than 103 Ω cm. At least two electrodes are buried in the dielectric material of E S C 6 near the top surface 50. A first electrode 80 and a second electrode 82 are made of a concentric ring plate made of a conductive material such as tungsten or a pin. The first electrode 80 is biased using a first electrode terminal 3Ί8, which is connected to the first electrode 80 and extends downward through E S C 6 to enter the inlet and outlet 3 1 0. The second electrode is applicable to this paper. National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm) -44-540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (42) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 8 2 A separate second electrode terminal (not shown) is used for biasing. A DC "stuck" voltage is applied to both the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 82 to generate an electrostatic attraction between the substrate 8 and the top surface 50 of the ESC 6, and the substrate 8 is held during processing. . At the same time, RF bias power is also connected to each of the electrodes 80 and 82. During the modulation of the ion-induced atomic layer deposition, the RF bias power provides the plasma and thus ion-generated power. In addition to generating plasma, RF bias power also induces a small negative potential (for example, a common DC bias voltage of 10V to 80V, at € 150WRF power and 0.1-ITorr pressure) on the substrate 8. The magnitude of this potential should be S 1 50 0V. The induced voltage defines positively charged ions in the plasma and attracts positively charged ions to the surface of the substrate 8. Positively charged ions collide with the wafer, driving the deposition reaction and increasing the density of the deposited film. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, a resistance heater 7 2 is also buried in E S C 6. The resistance heater 72 is formed into at least one coil or strip shape, which is wound around the entire E S C 6 in a plane about halfway between the bottom surfaces of the electrodes 80 and 82 and E S C 6. The heater 72 is controlled via at least one resistance heater connection 3 2 0 connected to the heater 72. Connector 3 2 0 extends down through E S C 6 and enters inlet and outlet 3 10. In this way, ESC6 is basically a dielectric substrate support, with embedded heater 72, and embedded electrodes 80 and 82 for DC bias and RF power connection. E S C 6 uses an annular clamp ring 1 7 8 to keep contact with the cooling plate 1 10, which overlaps one of the flanges 322 at one of the flanges at the bottom of E S C 6. An ESC0 ring 324 generates a vacuum seal to ESC6. The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X 297 mm) -45- 540093 A7 B7 V.

A plurality of clamp ring fixing members 180 ensures the connection between E s C 6 and the cooling plate 110, and each extends through the clamp ring 178 and enters the cooling plate 110. One treatment tool 1 8 having a ring elbow shape completely surrounds the clamp ring 1 7 8 and covers the top surface and the side surface of the clamp ring 1 78. The processing tool 1 8 2 includes a processing tool slanted surface 202 for positioning the shadow ring 28 (Figure 15) at the center of the processing tool 1 82. The processing tool 1 8 2 can be made of a dielectric material (such as alumina, aluminum nitride, or hard-polarized aluminum) to electrically isolate the clamp fixing member 1 80 from E S C 6 and the substrate 8. The processing tool 1 2 2 also prevents the clamping ring 1 78 and the fixing member 1 80 from receiving the processing gas, which is convenient for cleaning the reactor 100 (Figure 12). The cooling plate 1 10 can be made of a variety of thermally conductive materials, such as aluminum or stainless steel (for example, machine-made). The upper surface of the cooling plate 1 10 is patterned to generate multiple small area contact points 3 2 6 and multiple thermal cracking points 1 8 4. The contact point 3 2 6 having the shape of a raised edge contacts the bottom surface of E S C 6. The thermal cracking point 1 8 4 is the gap between E S C 6 and the cooling plate 110, which increases the temperature difference between E S C 6 and the cooling plate 110. The temperature of the cooling plate 110 can be controlled using a fluid (e.g., water) flowing through a plurality of coolant channels 78. The coolant channels 78 are designed so that the fluid can flow in a large circle on different diameters of the cooling plate 110. The lower surface of the cooling plate 1 10 is connected to the upper surface of the bottom plate 1 12. The upper surface of the bottom plate 1 1 2 forms the lower wall of the coolant channel 7 8 in the cooling plate 1 10. It can provide structural support for E S C component 1 06 for aluminum base plate 1 12.

Description of the invention (51) "Stuck" voltage and one of the RF power used for plasma generation. The same & ^^ electric power is used to generate the plasma 1 94 on the substrate 8 (Figure 13) and to generate the substrate (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page). RF power can be used because on a specific Paschen curve of pressure-distance product (pxd), the breakdown voltage required to generate plasma 1 9 4 using RF power is much lower than the DC case (eg 10 0V to 3 0 0 — 400V) . Moreover, RF power can be used to induce a stable DC bias. Of course, you can also use high DC voltage instead of RF power to generate plasma 194, and modify the bias hardware appropriately (for example, see the discussion in Figure 40 below). In Figure 31, cross-linking RF power to the electrodes 80 and 82 can establish a uniform electric power on the substrate 8 while using low RF power, such as 50 W to 150 W, which is less than that required for ordinary plasma reactors. From 3 5 0W to 60 0W. The frequency of the RF bias power can be 400 kHz, printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, 13.56MHz, or higher (eg 60MHz, 200MHz). However, low frequencies cause a large ion energy distribution with high energy tails, which can cause excessive spatter. Higher frequencies (such as 1 3 · 56 6 Η z or higher) cause a tighter ion energy distribution with a lower average ion energy, which is beneficial for modulated ion induced A L D deposition processing. Because the bias polarity is switched before the ions can hit the substrate, the ions see a time-averaged potential, so a more uniform ion energy distribution occurs. In a conventional plasma reactor, RF power is applied to the top edge of the processing chamber, usually a showerhead. This causes spattering of the top boundary. This is the size of the paper in which the impurities are mixed (usually aluminum or nickel) and / or the particles are mixed in the ordinary deposited film. The Chinese national standard (CNS) A4 specification (21 × 297 mm) is applicable 54-540093 A7 B7 V. Description of Invention (52) Main source. Spattering also transfers energy into the reactor structure, which considerably heats the reactor structure and requires effective cooling of the reactor structure. (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page.) In this example, RF power is applied to the electrodes embedded in ESC 6 and ESC 6 of ALD reactor 100 (Figure 12). 80 and 82 (Figure 31) instead of shower head 172 (Figure 13). This reduces the dispersion of the shower head 172 to a minimum, and can better control the bias voltage induced on the substrate 8. This also avoids overheating the chamber lid 10, reducing any cooling requirements to a minimum. Referring to FIG. 13, the shower head 172 and the cover 14 are grounded, so the higher plasma shielding voltage drop is mostly limited to the place where the substrate 8 is deposited. This is still due to the voltage ratio V h. t / V. . !! Because d is proportional to the area of each electrode (A ... i d / Ah. t) n, here, N is greater than 1. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. t is the electric or "hot" electrode, that is, the plasma shielding voltage drop on ESC6 of eS C module 106. VeOld is the voltage drop across the no-power, or "cold" electrodes, the shower head 172 and the hood 14. The combined area of the shower head 1 7 2 and the cover 14 can be regarded as the area of the cold electrode. This is still because the small space in the processing room 12 leads to a small 1¾¾ between the shower head 1 72 to ESC 6 (nominal 0.3 to 0 · 6), so the electrode with electricity can "see" the shower head 1 7 2 and the cover 14 is a single ground reference. Together, these combined areas are larger than the area of the substrate 8, or the area of the hot electrode. Therefore, in this reactor, V c ύ 1 d / V h. t > 1. Furthermore, by applying RF power to the ESC 6 via the electrodes 80 and 82 (Fig. 31), low RF power can be used to simultaneously generate the plasma 19 4 (Fig. 1 3), and to maintain the plasma ion 1 94's impact ion Low energy and controlled by Chinese paper standard (CNS) A4 (210X 297 mm) -55- 540093 A7 ______B7___ of this paper size 5. Control of invention (53). The ion energy is E = e I V p I + e I V ^ a s | where V p is the plasma potential and V b ^ a s is the bias voltage induced on the substrate 8. The ion energy should be S 1 50 e V, and preferably between 10 and 80 e V to drive the deposition reaction. The magnitude of V h a s should be $ 150 V, and V b u s should be between 10 and 80 V to prevent the deposited layer from splashing. The amplitude of V p is generally 10-30 V. The induced bias is controlled by the RF power applied. The induced bias voltage increases with increasing RF power, and decreases with decreasing RF power. Increasing & H F power also generally increases the number of ions produced. Controlling the RF power also controls the ion density in the plasma. Higher R F power is required for larger substrate diameters. The preferred power density is ^ 〇 · 5 W / c ni, which requires about $ 150 w for a 200 mm substrate. Power density-3 W / c m2 (substrates larger than 200 mm in diameter over 2000 mm) will cause unwanted spattering of the deposited film. Referring to FIG. 13, the cooling plate 110 and the bottom plate 1 12 are grounded. Therefore, each clamping ring fixing member 180 is also grounded. The processing tool 1 2 8 is made of insulating material, and the electric shielding fixing member 1 80 and the concrete plasma 1 9 4 are not affected by the ground voltage of the fixing member 1 80. The plasma can be controlled in a variety of ways. For example, the plasma can be controlled by changing the applied RF power. In some other embodiments of the ESC6 circuit for electrically biasing the ALD reactor 100 (Figures 12 and 13), for example, the RF impedance matching circuit 370 or the RF generator 92 (Figure 31) may include a switch .

Except for switches 3 7 4 and 3 7 8, circuit 3 7 2 (Figure 32) and circuit 376 (Figure 33) are similar to circuit 348 (Figure 31). Switches 3 7 4 and 3 7 8 can be opened to isolate the RF generator, or switches 3 7 4 and 3 7 8 can be closed to supply RF power to the electrodes 8 0 and 8 2. The switches 3 7 4 and 3 7 8 enable the plasma reaction time to be in the 100 m s time range. It is also possible to control the plasma 19 4 (Fig. 13) by changing the gas pressure, while using, for example, the circuit 3 4 8 of Fig. 31, and constantly applying R F power to the electrodes 80 and 82. Referring to Fig. 15, Fig. 16, and Fig. 17, as described above, the cover 14 and the shower head 17 2 and the chamber cover 10 form a cover conductive upper path 22. The cover 14 also forms a cover conductive lower path with the shadow ring 28. The conductivity of the upper and lower diameter paths 2 2 and 24 is changed by the linear motor 1 2 2 (Fig. 8) by precisely moving the cover 14. The conductivity of the upper and lower path 22 and 24 directly affects the pressure in the processing chamber 12 and can be used to change the pressure. For example, a low conductivity processing hood position 2 10 can be used to establish a high pressure (ie, relative to the pressure of the annular pump channel 20) in chamber 12 as shown in Figure 15. The high pressure electric power generation slurry 1 9 4 (FIG. 13) creates a favorable environment in the chamber 12. A polyester hood position 2 1 4 can be used to establish a low pressure in the chamber 12 as shown in FIG. 17 to expose the M chamber 12 to the transport pump channel 20. Low pressure effectively terminates the plasma 1 4 because no sufficient gas-phase collision occurs to maintain the plasma.

Applying RF power to the electrodes 1 0 and 4 without firing or maintaining the plasma will cause the RF generator 9 2 (Figure 3 1) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Output The power is 100% reflected. Therefore, the R F generator 92 should be able to absorb this power without harm. It is also possible to control the plasma 1 9 4 by jointly changing the gas pressure and applying R F power (Figure 1 3). For example, the plasma 19 4 can be ignited by the high pressure and favorable environment in the chamber 12. The plasma 1 9 4 can be terminated by a switch, such as the switch 3 74 in the circuit 3 7 2 of FIG. 3 or the switch 3 7 8 in the circuit 3 76 of FIG. 3. The implementer understands that the circuit 3 4 8 of FIG. 31 and its various components for electrically biasing E S C 6 can have various other embodiments. For example, multiple RF sources can be used. A L D processing: background and innovation processing.

The precursor B y 3 8 8 reacts with the chemisorbed precursor A 3 8 4 on the substrate 8 in a self-limiting surface reaction, as shown in Figure 3 4 (c). Once the initial absorption of precursor A384 and precursor By388 completely react, the self-limiting reaction stops. Fourth, the excess gas precursor B y 3 8 8 and any reaction by-products can also be extracted by inert polyester gas, leaving the AB monolayer 3 9 0 of the desired film, as shown in Figure 3 4 (d) . Repeat the deposition cycle as needed to obtain the required film thickness. By simply calculating the number of deposition cycles, the accuracy of the film thickness to the atomic layer (ie, Angstrom scale) can be controlled. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs However, A L D processing is slower than traditional deposition techniques such as C V D and P V D. To increase output, shorter deposition cycles are required. One way to shorten the sedimentation cycle is to shorten the duration of individual precursors and pumping / cleaning steps. However, the length of individual pulses cannot be reduced arbitrarily. The first precursor pulse must be long enough to form an adsorption layer of the first precursor on the substrate. The pulse of the second precursor must be long enough so that the first and second precursors can fully react. The pumping / polyester pulses between the precursor pulses must be long enough so that the precursor gas phase mixing does not occur. Gas phase mixing can cause gas phase reactions and / or particle formation, each of which can cause quality and reliability issues in the deposited film. Figure 3 5 shows the innovative A L D process. A deposition cycle consists of two steps instead of four, which improves processing yield and repeatability. In the basic treatment, a substrate 8 is maintained at a precise temperature, which promotes chemical absorption rather than decomposition. In the first step, a gas precursor 3 92 is introduced into the processing chamber. The size of the paper is applicable to the Zhongguanjia Standard (CNS) A4 specification (21GX 297 public holiday) " " -59- 540093 A7 V. Description of the invention (57) The precursor 3 9 2 contains the required film group (P ) In combination with multiple ligands. The group P may be a single element (for example, Ti, W, Ta, Cu) or a compound (for example, TiNx, TaNx, or WNx). In the innovative ALD process, the molecule of the gas precursor 3 8 2 reacts with the surface bond 3 9 4 through chemical bonding treatment to form a chemisorption precursor 3 9 6, which can generate multiple free complexes 3 9 8. As shown in Figure 3 5 (a). As a result of the first step, a single-layer chemisorption precursor 3 9 6 is formed on the substrate 8 as shown in FIG. 3 5 (b) ° In the second step, an inert scrubber gas is introduced into the processing chamber. Clean up excess gas precursor 3 9 2. The purge gas may include, for example, argon (A r), diatomic hydrogen (Kr 2), and other alternative groups, such as ammonia (H e). During this second step, RF power is applied (eg, using a computer synchronized switch) to generate a plasma in the processing chamber, or by increasing the gas pressure at a constant RF power to strike the power plasma. As shown in FIG. 3 (c), the plasma 194 includes a plurality of active ions 4 0 0 (for example, Ar + ions) and a plurality of reactive atoms 4 2 2 (for example, a europium atom). Some reactive atoms 4 02 can actually be ions. Ions 4 0 0 and atoms 4 2 hit the surface 8 of the substrate. The active ion 4 0 0 transfers energy to the substrate 8 so that the reactive atom 40 2 can react with the chemisorption precursor 3 9 6 and strip off unwanted ligands in the self-elimination process (these forms many Volatile ligands 4 0 4). The reactive atom 4 0 2 combined with the active ion 4 0 0 can thus be regarded as acting as a "second" precursor. When the plasma power is terminated, a single layer of 406, usually about one atomic layer, of the required population P remains on the substrate 8, as shown in Figure 3 5 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ( 210 ^ 297 Gongchu) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page.) Equipment · Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs -60- 540093 A7 B7 V. Description of Invention (58) (d). The two-step deposition cycle can be repeated as needed until the desired thickness is achieved. The thickness of the film deposited in each cycle depends on the material deposited. Common film thicknesses range from 10 to 150 A. Common precursors for T a compounds include pd EAT (pentakis (diethyUmido) tantalum), PEMAT (pentakis (ethy 1 methy 1 amido) tantalum), T a B r 5, T a C 1 5, and TBTDET (t-buty 1 imi η otris (diethy 1 imi η o) tantalum). Common precursors for titanium (Ti) compounds include Ti C 14, TDMAT (tetrakis (dimethylamido) titanium), and T D E A T (tetrakis (die thy la mino) titanium). Common precursors for copper (C u) compounds include C u C 1 and Cupraselect ((trimethylvinylsilyl) h e x a f 1 u ο · a c e t y 1 a c e t ο n a t o copper I). Common precursors for tungsten (W) compounds include W (C〇) 6 and WF6. Compared with ordinary ALD processing, organic metal precursors can be used in the innovative A L D processing. The polyester pulse contains a gas, which is inert (such as argon, hydrogen, and or chlorine) to prevent the gas phase from reacting with the gas precursor 3 9 2. Moreover, the terbium pulse may contain the same gas required to generate active ions (such as Ar + ions) and reactive atoms (such as osmium atoms). This minimizes the switching required for innovative A L D processing. Together, the reactive atom 4 02 reacts with the chemisorption precursor 3 9 6, while the active ion 400 provides the energy required to drive the surface reaction. In this way, the innovative A L D process can occur at a lower temperature (eg T < 300 ° C) than the ordinary A L D process (e.g. T = 400-500 ° C). This is especially important for substrates that already contain low-temperature-stable materials, such as low-k media. This paper is suitable for use in this paper.

Description of the invention (59) 〇 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The activation energy generated by the surface reaction is generated by the active ions in the plasma above the substrate 8 4 0 0, so without the energy provided by ion bombardment, the reaction usually does not occur, because the treatment temperature is kept lower than the temperature required for thermal activation. Therefore, the innovative atomic layer deposition process is ion-induced, not heat-induced. The deposition reaction is controlled by modulating the energy of the active ion 400, by modulating the flow rate of the active ion 400 and the reactive atom impinging on the substrate 8, or by both modulating energy and flow rate. The energy of the active ion 4 0 0 (for example, 10 e V to 100 e V) should be high enough to drive the surface reaction, but low enough to prevent significant splashing of the substrate 8. (a) The time chart of the conventional advanced technology A L D processing and (b) the innovative A L D processing are compared in FIG. 36. Figure 36 (a) shows that one of the deposition cycles printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in the ordinary ALD process includes a first precursory pulse 408, a polyester / pump pulse 410, and a second precursory pulse Wave 412, and another polyester / pump pulse 4 1 0. Each pulse is followed by a delay of 4 1 4, which has a duration that is usually non-zero. The delay 4 1 4 also ensures that the gas phase mixing of the first precursory pulse wave 408 and the second precursory pulse wave 4 12 is prevented. During this period, only evacuation occurred and no gas flowed in. Delay 4 1 4 also provides time for gas switching by a common valve system. The duration of the first and second precursory pulse waves 408 and 4 12 may be between 2000 ms and 15 seconds. The duration of the washing / pumping wave 4 1 0 can be 5-15 seconds. The duration of the delay 4 1 4 can be from 200 ms to 5 seconds. This results in a deposition cycle from 11 seconds to 75 seconds. As such, the 50-cycle deposition process takes more than an hour. Wood paper scales are in accordance with Chinese national standards (CNS specifications (210X297 mm) '-' -62- 540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (60) Figure 36 (b) shows the second deposition cycle of the innovative ALD process. (Please (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this page.) A deposition cycle includes a first precursory cycle 4 1 6 and a polyester gas pulse 4 1 8. Each pulse is followed by a delay 4 2 0. When normal Compared with ALD processing, the time taken for one of the innovative processing deposition cycles is greatly reduced, thereby increasing the processing output. If the delay 4 2 0 has zero length, the processing output can be further increased. Zero length delay can be used Three-way valves (especially the three-way valve 1 4 8 of the shower head in Figure 8) or similar structures of on-off valves and accessories (these can be quickly switched gas) are achieved. The innovation by the effective use of polyester gas pulse 4 1 8 In the ALD process, a zero-length delay of 42 0 is further facilitated, which may include a mixture of more than one gas. For example, the polyester gas may include a "second" precursor gas (ie, as shown in Figure 3 5 (c), the reaction is Sex atom 4 0 2 and during the terbium gas pulse 4 1 8 The generated active ions (4 0 0 combined effect). Moreover, the carrier gas of the first precursor (inflowing during the first precursor pulse 4 1 4) can be one of the "second" precursor gases 〇 The employee of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the consumer co-operative printed the implementation of the implementation of the ALD process, there are other embodiments. For example, in some embodiments, multiple precursors can be used on the compound film.

In these examples In reaction, a reactive atom C, such as the fluorene atom in FIG. 3 5 (c), reacts with carbon and oxygen to generate a volatile group (such as the C Η 3 and 〇Η X groups). Active ions 4 0 0 (for example, A r + and / or He + ions in Figure 3 5 (c). The paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -63- 540093 Α7 Β7 V. Description of the Invention (61) (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page)) Strengthen the decomposition (such as Η 2), and increase the physical elimination (for example, by scattering of A r + ions generated in the hair). In still other embodiments, reactive atoms 4 02 may not be needed, and plasma 194 may not contain reactive atoms 4 0 2 ° For additional information on the spot elimination of atomic layer deposition, see the related US provisional application number 60 / 255, 812, entitled, "Integrating on-site eradication and subsequent atomic layer deposition in a single processing chamber," was proposed on December 15, 2000. A L D treatment of other innovations The A L D treatment of the aforementioned innovations can be modified to further increase performance. Other innovative ALD processes can cope with faster cleaning of precursors, rapid changes in the conductivity of the processing chamber, changes in the state basis from one step to the next, self-synchronization of processing steps, and / or the generation and termination of various plasmas select.

Description of the invention (62) (Figure 8). (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page.) Therefore, after exposing the matrix 8 to the gas precursor 3 9 2, you can lower the stomach 1 4 to quickly increase the chamber conductivity. For example, a polyester cover position (7) can be used. The lower cover 14 opens the cover to conduct the upper and lower paths 22 and 24 to the annular pump passage 20. The low pressure of the pump channel 20 quickly removes the excess gas precursors 3 0 2 and the by-products such as the free complex 3 9 8 in the processing chamber 12 (Fig. 3 5 (b)). At the same time, polyester gas (such as Ar, K2, and / or He) flows in to assist the excess gas precursors and by-products in the polyester chamber 12. The lower cover 14 also passes through the exposure chamber 12 to the annular pump passage 20, causing the pressure in the chamber 12 to decrease. The hood 14 can then be moved back up, for example, to a position similar to the hood position 2 1 2 of FIG. 16 to reduce the conductivity and increase the pressure in the chamber 12 (taking a constant gas flow rate) to strike the power generation slurry 1 9 4 (Fig. 3 f (c)). Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. To be clear, a plasma 1 9 4 can be generated, while using the circuit 3 4 5 of FIG. 3 1 for example. The application of RF power can be synchronized with the position of the cover 14 (Figures 15-17) (for example, controlled by a computer) to generate plasma in the chamber 12 (Figure 13). Or, if the circuit 348 (Fig. 31) is used to apply a constant RF bias power to the electrodes 80 and 82, the high pressure in the processing chamber 12 can be used (that is, the pressure in the ring pump channel 20 is opposite), so that Trigger plasma 1 9 4 (Figure 1 3). The low pressure (ie, the pressure near the annular pump channel 200) effectively terminates the plasma 194 because there is not enough collision to maintain the plasma 194. Figure 37 shows a timing diagram of another A L D processing embodiment, as discussed above. Figure 37 (a) shows two deposition cycles, including a first precursor. The paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) -65- 540093 A7 ___ ΒΊ V. Description of the invention (63) (Please Read the notes on the back before filling this page) Pulse 4 1 6 followed by a polyester gas pulse 4 1 8 with zero length delay after each pulse. Figure 37 (b) shows the corresponding chamber conductivity. Multiple low-conductivity periods 4 2 2 (equivalent to the raised hood position) are separated from each other by multiple high-conductivity periods 4 2 4 (equivalent to the lowered hood position). The high-conductivity cycle 4 2 4 occurs at the beginning and end of each of the scrubber gas pulses 4 1 8 to assist the scrubber gas in the scrubber chamber 12 (Fig. 13). Fig. 37 (c) shows the corresponding pressure in the chamber 12 (Fig. 13). A low conductivity period 4 2 2 produces a high pressure period 4 2 6. A high conductivity period 424 produces a low pressure period 428. Figure 37 (c) shows multiple “plasma on” cycles 4 3 0 and multiple “plasma off” cycles 4 3 2. The plasma flow period 4 3 0 occurs during each high pressure period 4 2 6 and during the cleaning of the gas pulse 4 1 8. As discussed, the RF power (Figure 13) used to generate the plasma 194 can be synchronized with the hood position. Alternatively, the plasma can be ignited by high pressure (in the presence of polyester gas) and terminated by low pressure, while the RF bias power is constantly applied to the electrodes 80 and 82 embedded in ESC6 (Figure 31). The consumer cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs prints ordinary ALD hardware and processes the precise time depending on the individual precursor pulses 4 0 8 and 4 1 2 and the polyester / pump pulses 4 1 2 (Figure 36 (a)). To reduce the length of the deposition cycle and ensure proper processing performance. The processing of these time bases relies on a number of assumptions, including the existence of steady state conditions, the similar behavior of all A L D reactions, and all gases and treatments "on time". Conversely, some innovative A L D processing embodiments may use a state-based approach rather than a time-based approach to synchronize individual pulses. This can provide individual pulses in improving processing speed, control, and reliability. The paper size applies Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm) -66-540093 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (64) ( Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) Sync. At a predetermined time after the introduction of the first fixed duration gas pulse, instead of the introduction of the sub-gas pulse (with a fixed duration), the secondary gas can be triggered according to the change in the pressure state of the processing chamber 1 2 (Figure 13) Pulse wave. This can be achieved using a pressure switch installed in the chamber body 18 which can sense the pressure change in the processing chamber 12. This pressure can be adjusted by the adjustable conductivity in the process, and this pressure is achieved by moving one of the masks 14 during the deposition cycle, as described above. Figure 38 shows a time chart of another embodiment of the innovative A L D process. The A L D process of Figure 38 is similar to the A L D process of Figure 37, but with another plasma termination technique. Therefore, to avoid repetition, the discussion focuses on the differences between the two embodiments. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in the ALD process of Fig. 38, the hood 14 only descends after each of the precursory pulses 4 1 6 to assist the cleaning room 1 2 (see also Fig. 17 and Fig. 3 5 Cb)) Excess gas precursor 392 and free ligand 398. The number of high-conductivity periods 424 in FIG. 38 (b) (corresponding to the low-pressure periods 4 2 8 in FIG. 38 (c)) decreases. Therefore, a low-conductivity period 434 (corresponding to one of the high-pressure periods 4 3 6 in FIG. 38 (c)) extends from the terbium gas pulse 4 1 8 into FIG. 3 8 (a ) Followed by the protoplasmic pulse 4 1 6. In this embodiment, the electric prize is ignited by, or synchronized with, the high pressure in the chamber 12 (Fig. 13). In the period of the purging gas pulse 4 1 8, during each high pressure period 4 3 6, the plasma occurs at the period 4 3 0. Plasma 1 9 4 (Figure 1 3) is terminated by a method other than pressure change in the subsequent plasma interruption cycle 4 3 2 (during the period of the precursor pulse 4 1 6), which may include, for example, using the paper size Applicable to China National Standards (CNS) A4 specifications (210X297 mm)-67- 540093 A7-One .. ______ B7 V. Description of the invention (65) The switch interrupts the RF power, or sets the RF output to zero. A switch can be set, for example, in RF impedance matching circuit 370 or RF power supply 380 (Figure 32 and Figure 33). The actuation of this switch is synchronized, for example, by a computer with the deposition step. The innovative chemical adsorption technology of ALD treatment is in the period of the first precursor pulse 4 16 (Fig. 3 6 (b)), the gas precursor (such as the precursor 3 9 2 in Fig. 35 (a)). Chemisorption * on the substrate 8 can be enhanced by the biased substrate 8. As previously discussed in relation to Figure 3 5 (a), when one of the molecules of the gas precursor 3 9 2 reaches the heated substrate 8, a weakly bonded complex breaks apart the molecule to form a free complex 3 98. This actually leaves the proton molecule and has a net charge (positive or negative). One of the opposite polarity, low DC bias (for example, | 5 0 V 丨 < | V bias 丨 < 〇V) applied to the substrate 8 attracts the charged precursor molecules to the substrate, and its orientation is such that The atoms are bonded to the substrate 8 to form a chemisorption precursor 3 9 6. Requires the lowest possible bias (for example, I 5 0 V 丨 < IV bias | < 〇V), which generates a moment on the charged precursor molecule, with the least charge of the matrix 8, so that the charged precursor molecule In the right direction. This innovative chemisorption technology of A L D treatment promotes uniform and complete (ie saturated) chemisorption from a specific orientation on the medium and metal surface, so A L D can be used to achieve high-quality, renewable layer-by-layer growth. This innovative chemisorption technology is particularly effective for the first few precursor monolayers. Here, without this technology, the precursor molecules can be chemisorbed in arbitrary orientations. This method is applicable in this paper standard.

The two films used in copper interconnect technology 1 are a barrier / adhesive layer and a copper seed layer. Figure 39 (a) shows the chemical adsorption of T a N, a common barrier / adhesive layer material. In the case of the precursor TBTDET438, the complexing group of Bu can be detached. The nitrogen 4 4 2 (for example, N —) with a load of electricity makes a precursor 4 4 0 with a new load of electricity towards the substrate 8 with a positive bias for chemical adsorption. . If N E t 2 is split, T a becomes positively charged, and a negative bias applied to the substrate 8 causes T a to face the substrate for chemical adsorption. Figure 39 (b) shows Cuprasejet (CuhfacTMVS), a chemical adsorption of a common copper seed layer material. In the case of the precursor CuhfacTMVS 4 4 4, the TM VS base was cleaved. A new positively charged precursor 4 4 6 is then directed toward the negatively biased substrate 8 by positively charged copper 4 4 8 (for example, C u + 1) for chemical adsorption. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs In some embodiments, the innovative chemisorption technology may include on-site elimination, and then introduce the first precursor to promote high-quality thin film deposition. As described above with reference to FIG. 3 6 (b), a polyester gas pulse 4 1 8 (for example, containing Ar, Η 2, and / or He) can be removed on the spot to remove carbon-containing residues. Substances, natural oxides, or other impurities (for example, see application number 60/255, 812 above). In the case of low resistance and good mechanical adhesion from the film to the substrate 8 (Fig. 39), it is particularly important to remove the natural oxide from the metal layer. The europium atom can react with carbon and oxygen to generate volatile groups (such as the C Η X and 〇 Η χ groups). A r + This paper size is applicable.

The gas ratio can be modified to change the physical-to-chemical composition on the spot by 2%. Figure 40 is a schematic diagram of the ESC6 circuit 450 of the ALd reactor 100 (Figure 12) used to electrically bias the aforementioned innovative chemisorption technology. The use of E S C 6 helps to provide a uniform bias to the substrate 8 (stop 39). Circuit 450 of Fig. 40 is similar to circuit 372 of Fig. 32 and circuit 376 of Fig. 33. Therefore, to avoid repetition, the discussion focuses on the differences between circuits 450 and circuits 3 72 and 37. In FIG. 40, the connection between the RF power and the RF generator 92 is interrupted by opening and closing the RF power switch 452. A first DC power supply 454 and a second DC power supply 4 5 6 (these are a series matching power supply) are executed The functions of the DC power supply 86 in 3 2 and 3 3 are to maintain the potential difference between the electrodes 80 and 82. This potential difference provides a "stuck" action, keeping the substrate 8 (Figure 39) on the ESC6. A current suppression resistor 4 6 0, a DC power switch 402, and a DC reference voltage source 464 are connected in series to the common anode (labeled A) of the DC power supply 4 5 4 and 4 5 6 and the employee of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Consumer cooperatives print between 4 5 8. Ground terminal 4 5 8 may be the same ground reference as ground terminal 9 4. When the DC power switch 462 is closed, the reference voltage of the electrodes 80 and 82 (and therefore, the substrate 8 during the chemisorption period, as shown in Fig. 3 9) is established by the DC reference voltage source 4 6 4. The current suppressing resistor 4 6 0 limits the current from the DC reference voltage source 4 6 4. The DC reference voltage source 4 6 4 can provide a positive or negative voltage as needed to bias the substrate 8 (Figure 390).
