Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an integrated circuit (IC) component isolation, and in particular A method of manufacturing Shallow Trench Isolation (STI). [Prior Art] A complete integrated circuit is usually composed of thousands of Metal Oxide Semiconductor (M0S) transistors to prevent short circuits between these adjacent transistors. Therefore, an isolation structure for electrically isolating must be added between adjacent transistors. The isolation structure used in the conventional semiconductor process is Field Oxide (FOX), and the formation method is Local Oxidation (LOCOS). However, there are many disadvantages of the field oxide layer formed by the regional oxidation method. , including problems related to stress generation, and the formation of Bird's Beak around the isolation structure, especially the formation of the bird's beak area, which leads to the formation of such a field oxide isolation structure in the manufacture of components with gradually reduced dimensions. Provide effective isolation. In order to cope with the trend of shrinking the critical dimension (CD), the shallow trench isolation structure with good isolation in a small size has become the main isolation structure of the Deep Sub Micron process. Figures 1A to 1C are schematic cross-sectional views showing the manufacturing process of a conventional shallow trench isolation structure. 1A picture of the dream table, firstly forming a 1249807 05406twfl .doc/006 94.12.8 pad oxide layer (Pad Oxide) 102 and a mask layer l〇4 on the surface of the substrate 1〇〇, and then using a lithography hungry The Photo Lithography &amp; Etching process defines a shallow trench 106 in the substrate 1 , wherein the method of forming the pad oxide layer 1 〇 2 is Thermal Oxidation. Next, a liner oxide layer 108 is formed on the surface of the substrate 1 exposed in the shallow trench 106. The method for forming the liner oxide layer 108 is a thermal oxidation method. Referring to FIG. 1B, an oxide layer 110 is formed and immersed in the shallow trench 106. The oxide layer 110 is immersed in the shallow trench 106 by forming an oxide layer (not shown) to cover the mask layer 104. The shallow trench 106 is then broken into, and then the oxide layer covering the surface of the mask layer 104 is removed by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). The formation of the oxide layer 110 is usually carried out by using ozone (Ozone, 〇3) and Tetra-Etl·lyl-Ortho-Silicate (TEOS) as a reaction gas source through chemistry. It is made by Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). Referring to FIG. 1C, the pad oxide layer 1〇2 and the mask layer 104 shown in FIG. 1B are removed, and the shallow trench isolation structure is completed. The pad oxide layer 1〇2 and the mask layer 1〇4 The method used for the removal is a wet etching method. However, since the shallow trench has a certain aspect ratio (Aspect RatiQ, AR), that is, the depth of the shallow trench has a larger width than that of the shallow trench, when the critical dimension of the component continues to shrink, the shallow trench has The aspect ratio will gradually increase, resulting in an increase in the difficulty of the oxide layer breaking into shallow trenches. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to a method of fabricating a shallow trench isolation for solving the problem of gaps that may occur when a shallow trench is formed in a shallow trench having a certain aspect ratio. (GaP Fil1) The problem of poor situation. The invention provides a method for manufacturing shallow trench isolation, comprising providing a substrate, first forming a pad oxide layer to cover the substrate, forming a mask layer covering the pad oxide layer, and then performing a lithography etching process on the substrate Forming a shallow trench, and then forming a lining oxide layer on the surface of the substrate around the shallow trench, and then forming a first dielectric layer covering the mask layer and the lining oxide layer, and then performing the first dielectric layer Etching process to form a spacer covering the sidewall of the shallow trench while exposing the substrate at the bottom of the shallow trench, and then performing a thermal oxidation process to form an oxide layer at the bottom of the shallow trench and then forming a second dielectric layer covers the mask layer, the spacer and the oxide layer, and fills the shallow trench, and then performs a planarization process to remove the second dielectric layer formed on the surface of the mask layer, and then remove the mask The curtain layer, as well, removes the pad oxide layer. The invention firstly forms a spacer on the side wall of a shallow trench to prevent oxidation of the side wall of the shallow trench, and exposes the substrate at the bottom of the shallow trench, and then performs a thermal oxidation process to make the bottom of the shallow trench At the base, an oxide layer is formed in an anisotropic manner, and then a dielectric layer is interposed in the shallow trench to form a shallow trench isolation. The invention first forms an oxide layer at the bottom of the shallow trench, so that the aspect ratio of the shallow trench can be greatly reduced, so that the subsequently formed dielectric layer can be easily broken into the shallow trench. The above and other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following description of the appended claims <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> </ RTI> </ RTI> <RTIgt; [Embodiment] FIGS. 2A to 2F are schematic cross-sectional views showing a manufacturing process of a shallow trench isolation structure according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2A, first, a pad oxide layer 202 and a mask layer 2〇4 are sequentially formed on the surface of the substrate 2〇Q, and then a lithography process is used to define one in the substrate 2〇〇. Shallow ditches 206. Wherein, the pad oxide layer 202 is formed by a method such as thermal oxidation, the thickness of which is, for example, about 1 Å to 300 angstroms (Angstrom), and the material used for the mask layer 2 〇 4 is, for example, nitriding.矽, the method used for the formation, for example, chemical vapor deposition, the thickness is, for example, about 1500 to 2000 angstroms, and the shallow trench 206 formed by the lithography process has a depth of about 3,000 to 5,000; t矣. The substrate is formed on the surface of the substrate 200 exposed in the shallow trench 206 to form a liner oxide layer 208. The liner oxide layer 2〇8 is formed by a method such as thermal oxidation method whose thickness is, for example, approximately 1〇0. 250 angstroms. The sra 篸 Pm table 2B is then formed with a dielectric layer 21 〇 which conformally covers the lining oxide layer 2 〇 8 in the mask layer 2 〇 4 and the shallow trench 2 〇 6 . The material used for the dielectric layer 210, such as tantalum nitride, is formed by a method such as chemical vapor deposition. Referring to FIG. 2C, next, the base region 200a at the bottom of the shallow trench 2〇6 is used as a etch stop layer, and the dielectric layer 210 is subjected to an uranium engraving process so that the dielectric layer 21 is smashed in the shallow trench 2〇. The sidewall of 6 forms a spacer 212, 94.12.8 I249807〇6twfLd〇c/〇〇6 and since the base region 2 Ο 0 a at the bottom of the shallow trench 2 Ο 6 is an etch stop layer, the etch back process At the same time, the portion of the liner oxide layer 208 at the bottom of the shallow trench 206 is removed, exposing the substrate region 200a at the bottom of the shallow trench 206. The etch back process used to form the spacers 212 is accomplished, for example, by reactive ion etching (RIE). Referring to Figure 2D, a thermal oxidation process is then performed to form an oxide layer 214 at the base region 200a at the bottom of the shallow trench 206. The reason why the oxide layer 214 is formed only in the base region 2〇Oa at the bottom of the shallow trench 206 is that the formation of the oxide layer 214 is performed by a thermal oxidation process, and the sidewalls of the substrate 200 and the shallow trench 206 are respectively covered by the mask layer. 2〇4 is covered by the spacer 212, and only the base region 2〇Oa at the bottom of the shallow trench 2〇6 is exposed. Therefore, the oxide layer 214 is formed only at the base region 200a at the bottom of the shallow trench 206. The oxide layer 214 formed by the thermal oxidation process is only a single direction in combination with the structure in which only the base region 200a at the bottom of the shallow trench 206 is exposed, and thus the thermal oxidation process used to form the oxide layer is formed. , is an anisotropic (Anis〇tr〇pic) thermal oxidation process. Referring to Figure 2E, a dielectric layer 216 is then formed overlying the mask layer 204, the spacers 212, and the oxide layer 214, which simultaneously fills the shallow trenches 206. Among them, the material for the dielectric layer, such as oxidized sand, is formed by a method such as chemical vapor deposition. Among them, the preferred 4 force silk salt is anti-94.12.8 I249807〇6twfl, 〇c/O06 should be used for gas source 'or' using high density plasma chemical vapor deposition (High Density Plasma Chemical Vapor) Deposition, HDPCVD). Since the oxide layer 214 is formed on the bottom of the shallow trench 206, the aspect ratio of the shallow trench 206 can be greatly reduced, so that the dielectric layer 216 can be easily broken into the shallow trench 206. Referring to FIG. 2F, a planarization process (Planarization) is performed on the dielectric layer 216 to remove a portion of the dielectric layer 216 overlying the surface of the mask layer 204, which is removed from the surface of the mask layer 204. The method used by the electrical layer 216, such as the masking layer 204 as a honing stop layer, is subjected to a chemical mechanical polishing process. Next, the pad oxide layer 202 and the mask layer 204 are removed, while the spacers 212 will become the spacers 212a, and the dielectric layer 216 will remain only the dielectric layer 216a in the shallow trenches 206. The manner in which the 202 and the mask layer 204 are removed is, for example, a wet etching method. The invention firstly forms a gap on the side wall of a shallow trench to prevent oxidation of the side wall of the shallow trench, and at the same time exposes the substrate at the bottom of the shallow trench, and then performs a thermal oxidation process to the base of the bottom of the shallow trench. 'An oxide layer is formed in an unequal manner, and then a dielectric layer is placed in the shallow trench to form a shallow trench isolation. The invention first forms an oxide layer at the bottom of the shallow trench, so that the aspect ratio of the shallow trench can be greatly reduced, so that the subsequently formed dielectric layer can be easily broken into the shallow trench. Although the present invention has been disclosed in a preferred embodiment as above, it is not intended to limit the invention, and it is intended to be within the spirit and scope of the present invention. Various modifications and refinements are made, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the scope of the appended claims.
