The contents of the case are incorporated herein by reference. FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to the attenuation of the phase-shift mask vacancy, specifically, to the material of the attenuation phase-shift mask (APSM) and its manufacturing process. Prior art Because phase shift masks can produce images with higher resolution than traditional binary masks, they are attracting more and more attention as the second-generation microelectronics manufacturing lithography etching technology. Among the various phase-shift design schemes, the attenuation embedded phase shifter proposed by Burn J. Lin in "Solid State Technology" (January issue, page 43 (1 992)) is gaining wide acceptance because of its fabrication Easy and cost-effective, the content of this article is incorporated herein by reference. In order to improve the optical properties of the reticle (that is, the tunability of light transmission and the resistance to photon irradiation and chemical treatment), there have been many variations related to this design scheme. Professionals now consider 157 nm lithography as a lithography solution after 193 nm. And there is no mature APSM material suitable for 157 nm and showing suitable optical properties, tunability, irradiation and chemical durability, etch selectivity, low defects, and convenient manufacturing. Previously, in US Patent Application No. 09 / 793,646, filed on February 26, 2001, we have disclosed a 84782.doc 1245167 apsm material based on the SiTiN, SiTiON system (for 193 nm lithography etching technology) and For the manufacturing process, the content of the case is incorporated herein by reference. Through this article, I aim to explain the combination of materials, the manufacturing method of 157nm APSM material (specifically, a stacked double-layer structure) and a phase shift mask < manufacturing method, which has a tunable light Transmission and in use (photon irradiation and chemical treatment) combine stable optical properties and an excellent etch selectivity. The composition consists of a siMxOyNz material with an etch stop layer, where the element M represents a metal as described in a patent application. Intrinsic aspects of the invention The broad aspect of the present invention includes an attenuating phase shift mask vacancy for an aged person, which can produce a 180 with at least o.oom light transmission at a selected lithographic etching wavelength. Phase shifted with chemical / optical durability and flexible light transmission tunability. Another aspect of the present invention includes a process for making an attenuated embedded phase shift mask, the process including a step of depositing a two-layer thin film phase shift material. Another aspect of the present invention includes, for example, # 仏 β Wanhui has moved the material composition, which includes a phase shift layer and an etch barrier layer. Embodiments a1 and 1 are used to make a mask-position, and are made into a phase-shifting film with the following properties: tunable optical characteristics (% 2 and k) (T is the light transmission; n is the refractive index; k Is the extinction coefficient); at 157 legs ... 80. _; Poor resistance to laser radiation and chemical treatment; and good engraving selectivity. The phase material film contains-double layer ㈣ 84782 1245167 The layer adjacent to the substrate controls% T and also acts as a worm-blocking layer, and the top layer is a phase shift layer. The first layer includes a metal or metal-based film. An example is given below. The phase shift film includes silicon, a metal, nitrogen, and / or oxygen. The metal may be an element from Group II, Group ..., Group I, Transition Metal, Lanthanide and Actinide. An example of the metal is given hereinafter. The invention includes a phase shift layer (SiwTixNyOz) on an etch stop layer, where w is between 〇1 ~ 〇 · 6, X is between 〇〇1 ~ 〇2, and y is between 0 ~ 0 · 6, z is between 0 ~ 〇 · 7), an etch stop layer (metal or metal base layer) deposited on a substrate (quartz, fluorinated quartz, CaF2 or Al203), and the phase Method for forming transfer layer and etching barrier layer. 1.The deposited film can be deposited by sputtering (RF, DC magnetron, Ac magnetron, pulsed bipolar DC magnetron, RF diode sputtering, or other sputtering known to those skilled in the art) The spray deposition method is composed of a combination of materials (for example: Si! _XMx, where x is between 0.001 and 〇5, M represents a group from the η, 1V, ν, transition metals, A single target made of any of the lanthanides and actinides, or two or more targets made of different compositions (for example, si02 and M targets or Si)-XMX and M (Target). Combination changes in the combination of targets or separate changes in power and deposition time for pure targets can result in changes in the combination of films. For a single-head ^ 'substrate holding table can be fixed or can be rotated around the track, while for multiple targets' substrate holding table must be rotated around the track and the speed can be adjusted. Specifically, for the phase shift layer of SiTiO (titanium as the element M), ^ (s. 7 flat-target, lQ7 (TiSi2) G1) deposition using rf magnetron sputtering deposition, and the etching resistance 84782.doc 1245167 The support layer (Ta and Tl) was deposited using Dc stone controlled tube deposition. In order to obtain good stability against chemical treatment (material mask cleaning), the deposition conditions need to be optimized. We have identified better deposition conditions required for chemical resistance. 2. Optical properties The optical properties (refractive index ⑷ and extinction coefficient (k)) of the phase-shift layer and the money-blocking layer are all based on a range! Multi-angle νΕ§Α Woollam ellipsometry measured from 50 to 7 ^. Thereafter, it is calculated to obtain -180 by using these optical constants. The preferred phase shift depends on the thickness. Measure 180 in the transmission mode of a rounded polarimeter. The transmission at the time of the phase shift was compared and the 4 transmission values were calculated. By monitoring the change in laser intensity when the laser irradiates eight inches, the transmission change during the laser irradiation is monitored in real time. The laser measurement device is the same as that described by Liberman et al. (1999). 3. Examples ( A) SiwTixNy0z single layer 1) Processing gas Ar / 02 / N2 Place the substrate in a rotating fixture orbiting or non-orbiting target, using a S107 (丁 iSi2).] The target is to deposit a thin film composed of SiwTlxNyOz. Sputtering is performed in an argon / nitrogen / oxygen mixed gas with a partial pressure of 10mT ^. Ar, Qin and ... all use ultra-high purity gas (99.999%) and the deposition chamber The background pressure is < 9〇 > < 10-, 〇1 ^. The film was deposited by a RF magnetron sputtering method with a 5 inch diameter target, and the power used was 450 W. ·: The above conditions The deposition rate is usually 0 to 16 A / sec. Before sputtering, the target was subjected to 5 minutes of pre-sintering at 450 m in 5 mT of argon. 84782.doc 1245167 years old; after that, under the film deposition conditions After 5 minutes of pre-spray, the surface of the target is pretreated. After pre-sputtering, the substrate is preferably immediately A load lock chamber is loaded into the deposition chamber and the deposition is performed immediately. Depending on the deposition conditions, the film thickness is between 400 and 2000 A. Figure 2 shows light transmission as a function of wavelength. Refraction of the film The rate k is 21 ° and the absorption constant k is 0.467. The corresponding thickness of this film is 745A, and its light transmission at a wavelength of 157 nm is 5.26%. According to calculations, if it is required to obtain a 180 at a wavelength of 157 nm. Phase shift Therefore, a transmission of 5.9% is required, and a film with the same optical constant needs a thickness of 711A. By adjusting the ratio of oxygen and nitrogen, a transmission of up to 18 〇 / 〇 can be achieved at a wavelength of 157 nm. List of atomic combinations of films with different oxygen concentrations (measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Rutherford: ^ b scattering method). Optical constants ^ and k are calculated by VESA Woollam ellipsometry and calculated simultaneously Corresponds to 18 °. The light transmission of the phase-shifted film thickness at a wavelength of 157 nm. As the oxygen concentration increases, the refractive index η decreases. Therefore, 180. The film thickness required for the phase shift and the light transmission at a wavelength of 57 nm Increase together. This single-layer APSM can meet the requirements of optical properties, but the selectivity of quartz is not good, and the selectivity of etching under CF4 plasma is less than 1.7. The reason for the above situation lies in the following facts. It is necessary to have a degree of oxygen in the south (> 3 5 //), and these high oxygen concentrations lead to low selectivity of the quartz substrate. As an effort to improve the selectivity of etching, we invented an etch stop Double-layer APS M. (B) SlwTlxOz / metal double layer For the double APSM, a metal etch barrier is deposited on the fluorite 84782.doc -10- 1245167 English substrate (Figure 0. In this article, the example I show is titanium etching Barrier layer and button etch barrier layer. After the metal etch barrier layer is deposited, a Sio.HTiShVi target is used to deposit a phase shift layer composed of SlwTlxNy0z. The examples in this article use the maximum transparency at the agreed ratio of S1 to T1i ( y = 〇). The sputtering of the metal layer was carried out in an argon processing gas with a partial pressure of 1.0mT A **, by means of DC magnetron sputtering. Before the actual film deposition, the target was subjected to 10 minutes Pre-sputtering, while the substrate is isolated in the load lock chamber. The film is deposited with a 5-inch diameter target at a power between 150 and 300 W. Under the above conditions, the deposition rate is usually 2.3 to 4.5 A The thickness of the barrier layer is usually between 10 and 400 A. After the deposition of the metal etching barrier layer, the substrate is transferred to the load lock chamber and the pre-sputter cleaning of the phase shift layer is performed simultaneously. Phase shift layer deposited by RF sputtering A 5-inch diameter mesh garment was created. Taking an example, a SiTiO film was deposited under an argon / oxygen mixed processing gas having a partial pressure Ar of 10 mT (Ar flow rate at 15 sccm). Oxygen is leaked through a Gransville_Phillips precision leak valve to maintain a constant 02 partial pressure between 0.10 ~ 0.70 and 1T. The RF radio frequency range is from 450 W to 900 W. Under the aforementioned conditions, the deposition rate is usually 075 to 1.7 A / sec. Depending on the deposition conditions, the thickness of the phase shift layer ranges from 400 to 2000 people. The following conditions have been achieved for the best optical and chemical durability under the conditions suitable for the phase shift layer SiTiO. RF power Set to 900W, Ar partial pressure is 1.0 mT and oxygen partial pressure is 0.55 mT. If the oxygen partial pressure of the film is lower than 035 mT, the amount of oxygen incorporated in the film is too low, its light transmission is too low to have actual Use value. Another 84782.doc -11-1245167 'low deposition power (450 W) leads to poor chemical durability, which may be due to the high porosity (low density) of the film. Before loading the substrate, use an oxygen ash To clean the substrate to remove Hydrocarbons that reduce light transmission at a wavelength of 157 nm. Figure 4 shows the light transmission curves of SiTi〇 / Ti and SiTi〇 / Ta as a function of wavelength. For both APSMs, the light transmission at 248 nm was examined below 3 0% 'This is another advantage over single layer apsM. The atomic composition of the phase shift layer SiTiO is shown in the list in Figure 3. The optical constants 0 and k) and the thickness of the film are determined by a Wollam ellipsometry. Measure. Figure 5 lists the above values as well as the light transmission corresponding to a wavelength of 157 nm. The advantage of the two-layer design is that its light transmission is easier to adjust than a single layer. The light transmission can be adjusted by adjusting the surname layer without changing the oxygen concentration. For example, a thin film with a thickness of 1150A (wherein the thickness of titanium is 149mm) can obtain a light transmission of 180% of 5.9%. Phase shift. If 鈇 is reduced to 60 people (and 3 丨 1: 丨 0 to 1175), the light transmission becomes 12%. Similarly, a thin film of Ding 10 (with a thickness of Zhao of 106 A) with a thickness of 117.0 people can obtain a light transmission of 180% of 5.9%. Phase shift. If the lithium is reduced to 50 people (and SiTiO is reduced to 1183A), the light transmission becomes 10.6%. Figure 6 summarizes the change of the phase shift layer siTiOi% T at a wavelength of 1 57 nm. This change is sulfuric acid / hydrogen peroxide cleaning Solution (1123〇4: 112〇2 = 3: 1,90. (:) A function of Chinese / English / also time; this solution is also called piranha solution, which is usually used in manufacturing lines to remove photoresist. The total change in immersion up to Η 5 minutes is 0.3%. This excellent stability guarantees the compatibility of the material with standard photomask manufacturing methods. For comparison, the figure also shows low power (4 5 〇W) 84782.doc • 12-1245167 deposition. The chemical durability of this double-layer SiTiO / Ta also shows extremely stable% D (as a function of piranha cleaning). Figure 7 summarizes the double-layer SiTiO / Ta% 1: change at 157 nm wavelength, this change is a function of immersion time in sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide cleaning solution. After the initial cleaning, the T% increased from 6.07% to 6.27%, and then, up to 90 minutes The cleaning only increased T% by 0.02%. This result shows that the double-layer SiTi0 / Ta has excellent chemical stability that can withstand repeated cleaning. Figure 8 summarizes the etch selectivity of the single-layer design and the double-layer design.
