Description

1221099 A7 _____ B7 五、發明説明(1 ) 【發明所屬的技術領域】 本發明是關於一種形成多晶矽或高熔點金屬間之層間 絕緣膜、或是鋁配線間之餍間絕緣膜的被膜形成方法。 【習知技術】 過去要在被處理物上形成層間絕緣膜一直都是使用 CVD(化學汽相沉積)方法,但是隨著被處理物上之配線間 的微細化發展,CVD方法已逐漸無法形成條件充分的被 膜。亦即’利用CVD方法所形成的被膜是形成保角形狀 (conformal),因此並無法充分埋入狹窄的配線之間。 於是,針對如何在被處理物上形成SOG被膜的方法 進行了 一番探討。然而,在使用開放型的一般杯膜來形成 S0G膜的情況下,例如第3圖所示,形成在線與間隙圖案 部之間隙部分底部的SOG被膜與其他部分所形成的SOG 被膜,在膜質上會產生疏密的差異。一般而言,形成在線 與間隙圖案部之間隙部分底部的SOG膜較稀疏,其他部 分則較緊密。 此處所謂的疏密差異是指例如在將「緊密部分」的密 度設爲1 00的情況下,「稀疏部分」的密度爲5 0,即使 是相同的SOG被膜,也會引起由於所塗布之部分的不同 以致密度有所不同的現象。 尤其在配線間的縱橫比較高的情況下,此疏密化現象 尤爲顯著。縱橫比較低的情況下,則幾乎不會發生疏密化 現象。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) A4規格(2】〇X297公釐) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁)
、1T 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 -4- 1221099 A7 __ B7 _ 五、發明説明(2 ) 此外,在使用一般杯膜(開放型杯膜)的情況下,通常 在高縱橫尺寸部分也是塗布1次SOG以形成被膜,因而 不易解決疏密差異的問題。 爲了解決上述問題,本案申請人在日本特開平7-22 75 68號公報中揭示了:使所要塗布的被處理物之旋轉 分成兩次來進行,第1旋轉與第2旋轉的間隔是設定爲第 1旋轉之旋轉時間的1 〇倍以上,但是如第4圖所示,疏 密差異的問題仍無法獲得解決,縱橫比較高的部位仍然較 爲稀疏。 【發明所欲解決的課題】 如上所述的疏密化現象,由於稀疏部分會明顯降低元 件的可靠性,因此本身爲半導體元件之心臟的閘極部分尤 爲重要。所謂「稀疏」是指在被膜內部含有微小的空隙, 空隙中的氣體會因爲SOG塗布後之熱處理步驟中的加熱( 亦即烘烤)而膨脹,以致在SOG被膜產生裂縫。一旦如此 ,便無法發揮SOG絕緣膜的功能。 因此,本案發明的目的在於提供一種可縮小疏密部位 之面積並降低疏密度,且在配線間爲〇. 1 3 μηι以下的微細 部位也可形成均一層間被膜的被膜形成方法。 【用以解決課題的手段】 有關於爲了解決上述課題的本案發明之被膜形成方法 是在將可旋轉的內杯配置於外杯內,並且利用個別的蓋體 本紙張尺度適用中.國國家標準(CNS ) Α4規格(210Χ297公釐) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 訂 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 -5- 1221099 A7 B7 五、發明説明(3 ) 密封這些外杯及內杯的上面開口,而且內杯用蓋體是支撐 成可與內杯一體旋轉的旋杯式塗布裝置的前述內杯內設置 一形成有配線的被處理物,在此被處理物的表面塗布 SOG之後,利用蓋體密封內杯及外杯的上面開口,並且 在此狀態下使內杯旋轉,藉此使SOG均一地擴散,在進 行複數次前述塗布之後,利用熱處理裝置對於已塗布有 SOG的前述被處理物進行烘烤。 因此,使用旋杯式塗布裝置塗布SOG時,形成密閉 狀態的旋杯內雖會因爲旋轉而形成若干減壓狀態,卻可確 保SOG形成用塗布液的溶劑環境,且可在塗布當中避免 SOG被膜表面的乾燥情況,因此SOG並不會失去其流動 性而可進入微細的配線間。亦即,藉由維持減壓狀態及 SOG的流動性,SOG大半會被迫埋入配線間,因此可降 低SOG被膜的疏密度。 再者,爲了在塗布階段獲得SOG的預定被膜,藉由 塗布複數次(最好是2至3次),即可減少在配線間之縱橫 比爲2以上之高縱橫比時便會產生不良效果的疏密差異。 例如,第1次塗布是形成薄薄的SOG膜厚,將所形成的 疏密區域(亦即疏密部位的面積)控制在最小限度,如此, 在進行第2次塗布前,實際上縱橫比已變小,因此可減少 疏密區域及疏密度。 而且,塗布步驟中的轉速是與其設定成以低速長時間 旋轉,倒不如設定成以高速(最好是3 000至5000rpm)短 時間(最好是1秒)旋轉較能降低疏密度。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) A4規格(210X297公釐) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 、訂 争· 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 -6 - 1221099 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 外杯 內杯 旋轉裝置 真空夾盤 回收通路 盡體 基板 A7 __B7 五、發明説明(4 ) 而且,烘烤的處理條件是將燒成溫度設定爲40(TC至 10 〇〇 °C,將燒成時間設定爲30分鐘至9〇分鐘,並且將熱 處理裝置內設定成氧氣較多的狀態,因此可促進S 0 G與 氧氣的反應,並且獲得疏密度得以降低的均一 SOG被膜 〇 【圖面的簡單說明】 第1圖是旋杯式塗布裝置的剖視圖。 第2圖是利用旋轉式杯膜塗布2次SOG後的被處理 物的剖視圖。 第3圖是利用一般杯膜塗布1次SOG後的被處理物 的剖視圖。 第4圖是疏密區域因縱橫比不同而產生之差異的剖視 圖。 【圖號說明】 1 2 3 4 5

1221099 A7 __ B7 五、發明説明(5 ) 【發明的實施形態】 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 以下說明本發明的實施形態。第1圖是本發明實施所 使用的旋杯式塗布裝置的剖視圖,旋杯式塗布裝置是在環 狀外杯1內配置內杯2,並且將此內杯2安裝於旋轉裝置 3的軸,再使此內杯2以高速旋轉,並且在旋轉裝置3的 軸的上端設置用來吸附並固定半導體晶圓等之基板W的 真空夾盤4,在外杯1則形成有用來接收來自內杯2之排 出物(drain)的回收通路5。 第2圖是使用第1圖所示的旋杯式塗布裝置塗布2次 SOG後的被處理物的部分剖視圖。如圖面所示,第1次塗 布的SOG厚度是利用第3圖所示之一般杯膜塗布1次後 之厚度的一半以下,使所形成的疏密區域變小。然後,利 用第2次的SOG塗布來補足預定SOG被膜的厚度。如此 一來,稀疏的部分會變得很小。 然後,塗布有SOG的被處理物會被搬運至相鄰的熱 處理裝置,並且進行連續的熱處理。熱處理裝置有可一次 處理複數片被處理物的批次式以及每次處理一片的單片式 兩種。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消费合作社印製 單片式熱處理裝置是將被處理物載置於平板狀的加熱 裝置上來加熱,但由於熱源僅爲平板,因此在處理室內的 溫度分布會產生不均的現象,而不易進行均一的處理。另 一方面,批次式是將熱源配置成包圍裝置的周圍,因此可 藉由輻射熱均一地加熱處理室內。而且,藉由加熱30分 鐘以上,被處理物間的溫度不均便可獲得解決。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標隼(CNS ) A4規格(210X297公釐) -8- 1221099 A7 __B7_^_ 五、發明説明(6 ) 熱處理裝置的處理條件是在可獲得輻射熱的狀態下, 將燒成溫設定爲400至1 000 °C,將處理時間設定爲30分 鐘以上90分鐘以下。而且,SOG溶液如果是在送入氧氣 或蒸氣(s t e a m ),使氧氣比大氣中多的狀態下進行熱處理 ,會使SOG溶液引起脫水縮合反應,而且H20會蒸發, 並且殘留緻密化的Si02膜。 SOG是溫度越高越容易活性化,因此會變得容易與 〇2結合,而可促進反應並且緻密化,但是若溫度過高, 會對於配線造成損害,因此並不理想。此外,所謂氧氣較 多的狀態是指在加熱處理室內中,存在有比大氣中更多( 至少在2 1 %以上)的氧氣。 【發明效果】 根據本發明,藉由使用旋杯式塗布裝置,使SOG在 被處理物上以高速旋轉,並且分成2至3次塗布多層,則 在縱橫比較高的配線間也可將絕緣膜的疏密化控制在最小 限度而塗布SOG。再者,藉由利用可獲得輻射熱的批次 式熱處理裝置,以400至1 000 °C、30分鐘以上90分鐘以 下,且在氧氣較多的狀態下燒成前述被處理物,即可獲得 疏密差異得以降低的緻密平坦化膜。 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準(CNS ) Α4規格(210Χ297公釐) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁}
