1227541 玖、發明說明 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明是有關於一種移除半球形晶粒矽 (Hemispherical Grained Silicon; HSG)之方法,特別是在 深溝渠結構中,利用矽鍺(SiGe)做為蝕刻終止層,以移除 半球形晶粒石夕層之方法。 【先前技術】 近年來微電子工業快速發展,元件基組日趨微小化, 對微小尺寸之動怨隨機存取記憶體(DynamiC Ran(J〇ln
Access Memory; DRAM)而言,維持每個晶胞的電容並不 谷易,目刚其儲存電容至少要在25fF以上。增加電容表 面積或使用高介電係數之介電材料均可改善此問題。其 中’利用半球形晶粒矽(Hemispherical Grained silicon; HSG)以增加電容表面積的方法,已廣泛應用於堆疊式 dram。 然而,半球形晶粒矽應用到溝渠式DRAM時卻面臨 了困難:半球形晶粒矽與單晶矽的物性相似 溝渠上半部之半球形晶粒矽時,會破壞溝渠 ,因此在蝕刻
因寄生電容而導致儲存電容下降。
1227541 上以做為餘刻終止層,經多道步驟處理,移 後,*沉接一 * > 工千#的乳化物 、半球开)晶粒矽層,並去除溝渠上半部 形晶粒石夕。缺屮制扣傲 口丨之半球 造的困難度 繁複’大幅提高了溝渠式DRAM製 【發明内容】 半球之目的就是在提供—種在深溝渠結構中移除 + 東:粒矽(Hemispherical Grained Silicon; HSG),且 不會破壞溝渠側壁之方法,以及—種在溝渠式電容中導入 半球形晶粒矽後,可維持或提高每個晶胞的儲存電容之方 法。 鑒於上述目的,本發明之一態樣,係提供一種利用石夕 鍺(SWe)做為—終止層,並以濕㈣製程移除深溝渠中 半球形晶粒石夕之方法。濕㈣製程所用之氫氧化卸/丙嗣/ 水的混合液對半球形晶粒矽與矽鍺層的蝕刻速率選擇性 比很高,故在移除溝渠上半部之半球形晶粒矽層時,不會 破壞溝渠側壁,同時其平整度更符合後續製程之需求。另 -=面’梦鍺層亦提高了埋藏帶(buriedst叫叫區域的 固態溶解度,因此可降低埋藏帶的阻抗,進而提高驅動電 流。 本發明之另一態樣,係提供一種導入半球形晶粒矽至 溝渠式電容之方法《其蝕刻終止層係為鍺原子佈植所形成 之埋藏石夕錯層’可利用預定角度將埋藏石夕錯層只佈植於溝 1227541 渠之領形區(collar region)内,故製得之電容在半球形晶 粒石夕層與溝渠側壁間並不存在蝕刻終止層,因此可維持Z 提高晶胞的儲存電容。另一方面,由於此法所佈植之蝕刻 終止層,可選擇性地只形成於溝渠之上半部,而無需增加 去除溝渠下半部蝕刻終止層的步驟,故有效簡化導入半球 形晶粒矽至溝渠式電容之製程。 【實施方式】 本發明之移除深溝渠結構中半球形晶粒矽之方法的 一較佳實施例,將參照附件圖式詳述如下。 第1A圖係為一具研磨墊104與溝渠1〇2結構之基 板,以一預定角度(較佳的為約8。〜約12。,更佳的為約ι〇Τ) 施加鍺原子佈植100及快速熱處理後,形成一埋藏矽鍺層 於溝木102側壁之領形區(c〇uar 内,以做為姓 刻終止層之用。由於藉由控制佈植角度可使埋藏矽鍺層 108選擇性地只形成於溝渠1〇2之上半部,而不會形成在 溝渠102 了半部,因此無須進行去除溝《1〇2 了半部埋藏 广錯層108的步驟。此外,此埋藏石夕錯層1〇8亦提高了埋 赛帶(buried strap; Bs)區域的固態溶解度,可降低埋藏帶 的卩且l/u而提呵驅動電流。另一方面,埋藏矽鍺層工⑽更可 仏為罩幕層之用,其在㈣溝渠時可保護溝渠之上半部, ,再進仃濕式蝕刻時只蝕刻領形區以下的部分而形 并瓦形結構之溝渠。 接著’參照第1B圖及第lc圖,沉積一半球形晶粗 1227541 矽層116於埋藏矽鍺層1〇8及溝渠ι〇2上再 玻璃層丨25於半球形晶粒矽層ιΐ6之上。 沉積一绅梦 隨後進行綠㈣與去除之製程。 形成-光阻層叫溝渠102下半部内,其深度用圖義 ==高度;然後去除溝渠1〇2上半部未被光阻 層32覆盍之砷矽玻璃層125。 阻二!覆 所示,去除溝渠102上半部未被光 、晶:㈣f 球形晶粒石夕層116。此去除步驟係採用 程’當所用之氫氧化卸/丙酮/水之混合液組成為 ''' 4時’對半球形晶粒梦層116與埋藏石夕鍺層1〇8的 蝕刻速率選擇性比高達20 :卜故在去除溝渠102上半部 之半球形晶粒矽層116的同時,不會破壞溝渠ι〇2之侧 〃平整度更可符合後續製程之需求,以改善整合後 的電性性質,如有效提高漏電流等。 ,去除溝渠102上半部未被光阻層132覆蓋之半球形晶 粒矽層U6後,再移除殘餘的光阻層132。如第1F圖所 八心之’儿積一覆蓋層1 5 0 ,,其材料係為四乙氧基矽烷 (TEOS) 〇 退火處理砷矽玻璃層125,以驅入砷原子而形成一埋 藏電極160。然後進行濕蝕刻製程去除覆蓋層15〇及溝渠 102下半部之砷矽玻璃層125,結果如第圖所示。 最後’如第1H圖所示,沉積一介電層18〇於溝渠ι〇2 之上’其材料係為氧化矽/氮化矽(Si〇2/SiN)。所得之溝渠 式電容結構,在半球形晶粒矽層丨丨6與溝渠丨〇2侧壁之 I 1227541 間,並無餘刻終止層,故可維持、甚至提高每個晶胞之儲 存電容。 由上述本發明之較佳實施例可知,應用本發明之移馀 深溝渠結構中半球形晶粒矽之方法,可藉由佈植方式選擇 性地將埋藏石夕錯層只形成於支渠之上半部,無需增加去除 溝渠下半部埋藏石夕鍺層的步驟,故可簡化製程。且進行濕 蝕刻製耘時所用之氫氧化鉀/丙酮/水混合液對半球形晶 .粒石夕與埋藏補層的㈣速率選擇性很高,因此將埋藏: 鍺層做為蝕刻終止層’在去除半球形晶粒矽時,不會破壞 溝渠之側壁,故可改善整合後的電性性質。又因為二求形 晶粒矽層與溝渠側壁間並不存在蝕刻終止層,因此可維 持、甚至提高晶胞的儲存電容。埋藏石夕錯層除了做為姓刻 終止層外,其亦增加了埋藏帶區域的固態溶解度,可降低 埋藏帶的阻抗而提高驅動電流。 雖然本發明已以一較佳實施例揭露如上,然其並非用 以限定本發明,任何熟習此技藝者,在不脫離本發明之精 神=範圍内,當可作各種之更動與潤飾,因此本發明之= 護範圍當視後附之申請專利範圍所界定者為準。 【圖式簡單說明】 為讓本發明之上述與其他目的、特徵、和優點能更明 顯易懂,配合所附圖式,加以說明如下·· 第1A圖至第1H圖係繪示本發明之一較佳實施例 中,在深溝渠結構中移除半球形晶粒矽的製程剖面圖。 1227541 【元件代表符號簡單說明】 100 :鍺原子佈植 104 :研磨墊 116 :半球形晶粒矽層 132 :光阻層 160 :埋藏電極 102 :溝渠 108 :埋藏矽鍺層 125 :砷矽玻璃層 150 :覆蓋層 1 80 :介電層
