累增崩潰光二極體之製程方法及其光罩裝置Process method for accumulating collapse light diode and reticle device thereof

本發明係為一種累增崩潰光二極體之製程方法及其光罩裝置,尤指一種藉由光罩裝置的創新圖案設計,可在累增崩潰光二極體之擴散製程中提供一自我對準效果的一種累增崩潰光二極體之製程方法及其光罩裝置。The invention relates to a process method for accumulating collapsing light diodes and a reticle device thereof, and more particularly to an self-alignment process in a diffusion process of accumulating crash light diodes by an innovative pattern design of a reticle device An effect of a method of increasing the collapse of a photodiode and a reticle device thereof.

累增崩潰光二極體(Avalanche Photodiode;APD)是一種可將光訊號轉換成電子訊號的感光元件。APD之功能類似一般傳統的光二極體其兩者均可把光能轉變成電子訊號。然而,APD由於其內部的增益機制而可提供更高的感光性。簡單來說,在一般傳統的p-i-n光二極體中,單一光子可被轉換成一個電子-電洞對;而在APD中,單一光子卻能被吸收而形成多個電子-電洞對。因此,APD的應用近年來在光電技術領域中已廣泛受到重視。Avalanche Photodiode (APD) is a photosensitive element that converts optical signals into electronic signals. The function of the APD is similar to that of a conventional conventional photodiode, both of which convert light energy into an electronic signal. However, APD provides higher sensitivity due to its internal gain mechanism. Briefly, in a typical conventional p-i-n photodiode, a single photon can be converted into an electron-hole pair; in APD, a single photon can be absorbed to form multiple electron-hole pairs. Therefore, the application of APD has been widely recognized in the field of optoelectronic technology in recent years.

如圖一所示,為一經過簡化的平面式累增崩潰光二極體(APD)剖面結構示意圖。在一般以擴散方式定義累增崩潰區的APD中,主要是在一n型InP基材11的表面上藉由p導電型雜質形成三個主要的擴散定義區,分別為外圈的保護環21(Guard Ring)、介於中間的第一擴散區22(或可稱為主動導電區)、位於內部的深層擴散區23(或可稱為重複擴散區)、以及本圖中未示之邊界區域等等。如圖二A所示,在習用技術中,可藉由同一道第一光罩31在同一次擴散製程中同時定義出保護環21與第一擴散區22。至於深層擴散區23則是藉由如圖二B所示之第二光罩32在第二次擴散製程中加以定義。As shown in FIG. 1 , it is a schematic diagram of a simplified planar trapped light-emitting diode (APD) profile structure. In the APD which generally defines the cumulative collapse region in a diffusion manner, three main diffusion defining regions are formed on the surface of an n-type InP substrate 11 by p-conductive impurities, respectively, which are the outer ring protection ring 21 (Guard Ring), intermediate first diffusion region 22 (or may be referred to as active conductive region), inner deep diffusion region 23 (or may be referred to as repeated diffusion region), and boundary region not shown in the figure and many more. As shown in FIG. 2A, in the conventional technology, the guard ring 21 and the first diffusion region 22 can be simultaneously defined in the same diffusion process by the same first photomask 31. As for the deep diffusion region 23, it is defined in the second diffusion process by the second mask 32 as shown in Fig. 2B.

顯然地,由圖一可知,深層擴散區23與第一擴散區22需要被精確對準。然而,在對準過程中一定存在誤差,而此誤差極可能會嚴重影響APD元件特性表現,此現象經由電場模擬亦可以發現如圖三所示。當第一次與第二次擴散所使用之第一與第二光罩31、32的光窗產生對準誤差時(尤其指第一光罩31之第一擴散區22的光窗與第二光罩32之深層擴散區23的光窗),其邊緣崩潰現象更為嚴重且有兩邊增益不等高之現象,而電場大小與元件增益成對數相關,故略為不均勻之電場分佈即會導致嚴重增益落差。如圖四A及圖四B所示,為藉由透鏡光纖沿圖一所標示之x軸方向(亦即水平方向),量測具有1~2μm對準誤差之APD之光響應度,我們可以在圖四A中發現主動區增益不平坦與圖四B中發現崩潰發生在主動區邊緣且左右程度不同之情形,情況更甚者則會導致中心增益與崩潰電壓下降,而有待加以改進。Obviously, as can be seen from FIG. 1, the deep diffusion region 23 and the first diffusion region 22 need to be precisely aligned. However, there must be errors in the alignment process, and this error may seriously affect the performance of the APD components. This phenomenon can also be found in the electric field simulation as shown in Figure 3. When the optical windows of the first and second reticle 31, 32 used for the first and second diffusions produce alignment errors (especially the light window and the second of the first diffusion region 22 of the first reticle 31) The optical window of the deep diffusion region 23 of the reticle 32 has a more serious edge collapse phenomenon and a phenomenon in which the gains of the two sides are not equal, and the magnitude of the electric field is logarithmically related to the component gain, so that a slightly uneven electric field distribution may result in Severe gain drop. As shown in FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B, by measuring the optical responsiveness of the APD having the alignment error of 1~2 μm by the lens fiber along the x-axis direction (ie, the horizontal direction) indicated in FIG. In Figure 4A, it is found that the active region gain is not flat and the collapse in Figure 4B is found at the edge of the active region and the degree of left and right is different. The situation is even worse, which causes the center gain and the breakdown voltage to drop, and needs to be improved.

本發明的主要目的係在於提供一種累增崩潰光二極體(APD)之製程方法及其光罩裝置,藉由光罩裝置的創新圖案設計,可在擴散製程中提供一自我對準的效果,以提高累增崩潰光二極體的元件製程良率與特性均勻度。The main object of the present invention is to provide a process for accumulating a collapsed light diode (APD) and a reticle device thereof, which can provide a self-aligning effect in a diffusion process by an innovative pattern design of the reticle device. In order to improve the component process yield and characteristic uniformity of the cumulative crash LED.

The reticle device includes a first reticle and a second reticle, respectively defining a first pattern and a second pattern on the substrate, and performing the diffusion process according to the first pattern and the second pattern To form the deep diffusion region, the first diffusion region, and the guard ring.

Between the first diffusion ring zone and the guard ring zone. Moreover, the second pattern defined by the second mask comprises at least one of a second diffusion region located at the center and having an outer diameter D2a.

本發明之累增崩潰光二極體(APD)之製程方法及其光罩裝置的主要原理,是將所有需要定義之光窗,於第一道光罩即將其定義,在之後的光罩中再取出需要的部份,並遮蔽不需要的部份,因此所有光窗之相對間距在一開始即被光罩定義而不會產生對準誤差。而此技術可以應用於先定義大面積淺擴散後再定義小面積深層擴散之傳統擴散製程(傳統擴散),亦可應用於先定義小面積擴散再進行大面積擴散(相反擴散),亦或是將小面積光窗進行蝕刻制定出深淺落差後,再一併進行單次擴散(濕蝕刻後擴散),因此本發明可說是應用範圍非常高。The method of the method for accumulating collapsed light diode (APD) of the present invention and the main principle of the reticle device are to define all the light windows to be defined in the first reticle, and then in the reticle The required portion is taken out and the unnecessary portion is masked, so that the relative spacing of all the light windows is defined by the mask at the beginning without an alignment error. This technique can be applied to a conventional diffusion process (traditional diffusion) in which a large-area shallow diffusion is defined and then a small-area deep diffusion is defined. It can also be applied to first define a small-area diffusion and then to spread a large area (opposite diffusion), or After the small-area light window is etched to develop a deep and shallow drop, and then a single diffusion (diffusion after wet etching) is performed, the present invention can be said to have a very high application range.

為了能更清楚地描述本發明所提出之APD的製程方法及其光罩裝置,以下將配合圖式詳細說明之。In order to more clearly describe the method of manufacturing the APD of the present invention and the reticle apparatus thereof, the following will be described in detail in conjunction with the drawings.

請參閱圖五A及圖五B,為本發明之APD製程方法於擴散程序中所使用之光罩裝置的一較佳實施例,其包括有一第一光罩41以及一第二光罩42。該第一及第二光罩41、42係可在用來製作APD 10之基材上定義出如圖一所示之第一擴散區22、保護環21、重疊於該第一擴散區22中央之深層擴散區23、以及最外圍之邊界區域等等。Referring to FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, a preferred embodiment of the reticle device used in the diffusion process of the APD process method of the present invention includes a first reticle 41 and a second reticle 42. The first and second masks 41 and 42 define a first diffusion region 22, a guard ring 21, and a center of the first diffusion region 22 as shown in FIG. 1 on the substrate for fabricating the APD 10. The deep diffusion region 23, and the outermost boundary region and the like.

以一典型的APD 10為例,該基材11通常是一n型InP基材、或是以GaAs、Si、GaN等材料所構成之基材,其由下而上依序可分為:位於最底側之一n電極111、一n+ InP基板層112、n- InGaAs光吸收層113、nInP電場層114、以及n- InP窗層115。該第一擴散區22、保護環21、與深層擴散區23係位於窗層115內。於一些習知例子中,在基板層112與光吸收層113之間亦常具有一nInP緩衝層(圖中未示),同時在光吸收層113與電場層114之間具有一InGaAsP遷移層(圖中未示)。由於此所述之典型APD 10結構係屬習知且非為本發明之技術特徵,故不予贅述。Taking a typical APD 10 as an example, the substrate 11 is usually an n-type InP substrate or a substrate made of GaAs, Si, GaN or the like, which can be divided into: One of the bottommost side is an n-electrode 111, an n + InP substrate layer 112, an n - InGaAs light absorbing layer 113, an nInP electric field layer 114, and an n - InP window layer 115. The first diffusion region 22, the guard ring 21, and the deep diffusion region 23 are located in the window layer 115. In some conventional examples, an nInP buffer layer (not shown) is also often disposed between the substrate layer 112 and the light absorbing layer 113, and an InGaAsP migration layer is disposed between the light absorbing layer 113 and the electric field layer 114 ( Not shown in the figure). Since the typical APD 10 structure described herein is a conventional one and is not a technical feature of the present invention, it will not be described again.

如圖五A及五B所示,本發明之第一光罩41及第二光罩42分別可對該基材11之上表面定義出一第一圖案以及一第二圖案,並依據該第一圖案以及第二圖案來進行一擴散程序以形成該深層擴散區23、第一擴散區22以及保護環21。如圖五A所示,被該第一光罩所定義之第一圖案由內向外係至少包括可透光之:位於中央且外徑為D2之一重複擴散區411、外徑為D1之一第一擴散環區412、以及外徑為DG之一保護環區413。同時,該第一圖案並具有不透光之:寬度為w1之一第一阻隔環414其係位於重複擴散區411與第一擴散環區412之間、以及寬度為w2之一第二阻隔環415其係位於第一擴散環區412與保護環區413之間。如圖五B所示,被該第二光罩42所定義之第二圖案上係至少包括可透光之:位於中央且外徑為D2a之一第二擴散區421。其中,該深層擴散區23之外徑與涵蓋範圍係被該重複擴散區411之外徑D2係所定義,該第一擴散區22之外徑係被第一擴散環區412之外徑D1所定義,且該保護環21之外徑係被保護環區413之外徑DG所定義。此外,DG>D1>D2a>D2。As shown in FIG. 5A and FIG. 5B, the first mask 41 and the second mask 42 of the present invention respectively define a first pattern and a second pattern on the upper surface of the substrate 11, and according to the first A pattern and a second pattern perform a diffusion process to form the deep diffusion region 23, the first diffusion region 22, and the guard ring 21. As shown in FIG. 5A, the first pattern defined by the first mask includes at least one of light transmissive from the inside to the outside: one of the repeating diffusion regions 411 at the center and having an outer diameter D2, and an outer diameter D1. The first diffusion ring region 412 and the outer diameter DG are one of the guard ring regions 413. Meanwhile, the first pattern is opaque: one of the widths w1, the first barrier ring 414 is located between the repeating diffusion region 411 and the first diffusion ring region 412, and the second barrier ring is one of the widths w2. 415 is located between the first diffusion ring region 412 and the guard ring region 413. As shown in FIG. 5B, the second pattern defined by the second mask 42 includes at least one of a second diffusion region 421 located at the center and having an outer diameter D2a. The outer diameter and coverage of the deep diffusion region 23 are defined by the outer diameter D2 of the repeated diffusion region 411, and the outer diameter of the first diffusion region 22 is determined by the outer diameter D1 of the first diffusion ring region 412. The outer diameter of the guard ring 21 is defined by the outer diameter DG of the guard ring region 413. In addition, DG>D1>D2a>D2.

接著比較本發明所使用之光罩裝置與習用技術之光罩於結構上之差異處。以圖五A所示之本發明的第一光罩41與圖二A所示之習用技術的第一光罩31相比較,習用技術的第一光罩31具有兩個可透光區域,分別為一個內圓與一個外環,其中內圓是用以定義直徑為D1之第一擴散區22,外環是用以定義外徑為DG之保護環21。而在本發明之光罩裝置中,於該第一光罩41的第一擴散環區412(外徑為D1)與重複擴散區411(外徑為D2)之間更多了一個環狀且寬度為w1的第一阻隔環414是屬於不透光區域,而此不透光之第一阻隔環414的區域即為用以自動對準時可容忍的對準誤差區。至於本發明之第一光罩41最內部的圓(第二擴散區421)的大小則與習用技術的第二光罩21中的圓大小相同,都是用來定義外徑為D1的深層擴散區23。意即,於本發明中,當第二光罩42在進行對準時,其對準誤差只要落於第一光罩41之不透光的第一阻隔環414範圍內,即可達到第一擴散與第二擴散完全無偏差。因為當最後進行第二次擴散製程時,暴露於外界的基材區域仍然是於第一次光罩製程中即早已被第一光罩41所定義的內圓重複擴散區411,而此重複擴散區411與習用技術的第二光罩中的圓大小一般外徑都是D2。因此,本發明之第二光罩42所定義的第二擴散區421的外徑尺寸之所以略大於習用技術的第二光罩31所定義的深層擴散區23外徑,其目的並不是為了定義深層擴散區23的大小,而是要在對準誤差的範圍內確保讓此第二擴散區421落在本發明第一光罩41早已定義出之第一阻隔環414的區域中,同時使第一光罩41已曾定義的重複擴散區411曝露出來進行擴散製程以構成該深層擴散區23。由此可知,本發明之第二擴散區421的大小以及第一阻隔環414的尺寸都需被適當的定義,才能確保在對準誤差範圍內都能達成自我對準的功效。於本實施例中,假設於該擴散程序中之兩次光罩所形成之兩圖案的對準誤差值(也就是中心偏移量)為De時,該第一阻隔環414的寬度應大於該誤差值,也就是w1≧De;同時,且第二擴散區421在偏移De值後仍應落在第一阻隔環414的外徑範圍內,也就是(D2+2w1)≧(D2a+De)。然而,第一阻隔環414的寬度也不能過大,否則一來將壓縮到第一擴散環區412的寬度,二來於熱擴散製程時也將較難以達成橫向擴散使重複擴散區411因側擴而和第一擴散環區412相融合的結果(稍後詳述)。因此,於本發明之一較佳實施例中,第一阻隔環414的寬度w1以滿足1μm≦w1≦5μm條件為佳;同時,10μm≦(D1-D2)≦30μm;且1μm≦(D2a-D2)≦5μm為較佳。Next, the structural difference between the photomask device used in the present invention and the conventional photomask is compared. The first photomask 31 of the present invention shown in FIG. 5A is compared with the first photomask 31 of the prior art shown in FIG. 2A. The first photomask 31 of the prior art has two light transmissive regions, respectively It is an inner circle and an outer ring, wherein the inner circle is used to define a first diffusion zone 22 having a diameter D1, and the outer ring is used to define a guard ring 21 having an outer diameter DG. In the reticle device of the present invention, a ring is formed between the first diffusion ring region 412 (outer diameter D1) of the first reticle 41 and the repeated diffusion region 411 (outer diameter D2). The first barrier ring 414 having a width w1 is an opaque region, and the region of the opaque first barrier ring 414 is an alignment error region that can be tolerated for automatic alignment. As for the innermost circle (second diffusion region 421) of the first mask 41 of the present invention, the size of the circle in the second mask 21 of the prior art is the same, and is used to define the deep diffusion of the outer diameter D1. District 23. That is, in the present invention, when the second mask 42 is aligned, the alignment error is as long as it falls within the range of the first barrier ring 414 of the first mask 41 that is opaque, so that the first diffusion can be achieved. There is no deviation from the second diffusion. Because when the second diffusion process is finally performed, the area of the substrate exposed to the outside is still the inner circle repeating diffusion region 411 which is already defined by the first mask 41 in the first mask process, and the repeated diffusion The size of the circle in the second reticle of zone 411 and conventional technology is generally D2. Therefore, the outer diameter of the second diffusion region 421 defined by the second reticle 42 of the present invention is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the deep diffusion region 23 defined by the second reticle 31 of the prior art, and is not intended to be defined. The size of the deep diffusion region 23, but to ensure that the second diffusion region 421 falls within the region of the first barrier ring 414 that has been defined by the first mask 41 of the present invention, while making the first A repeating diffusion region 411, which has been defined by a mask 41, is exposed to perform a diffusion process to constitute the deep diffusion region 23. It can be seen that the size of the second diffusion region 421 of the present invention and the size of the first barrier ring 414 need to be properly defined to ensure self-alignment can be achieved within the alignment error range. In this embodiment, if the alignment error value (ie, the center offset) of the two patterns formed by the two masks in the diffusion process is De, the width of the first barrier ring 414 should be greater than the The error value, that is, w1≧De; at the same time, and the second diffusion region 421 should fall within the outer diameter of the first barrier ring 414 after the offset value of De, that is, (D2+2w1)≧(D2a+De ). However, the width of the first barrier ring 414 should not be too large, otherwise it will be compressed to the width of the first diffusion ring region 412. Secondly, it will be more difficult to achieve lateral diffusion during the thermal diffusion process, so that the repeated diffusion region 411 is laterally expanded. The result of fusion with the first diffusion ring region 412 (detailed later). Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the width w1 of the first barrier ring 414 is preferably 1 μm ≦ w1 ≦ 5 μm; at the same time, 10 μm D (D1-D2) ≦ 30 μm; and 1 μm ≦ (D2a- D2) ≦ 5 μm is preferred.

以下將具體說明本發明之光罩裝置應用於累增崩潰光二極體製程中之擴散程序的若干較佳實施例。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Several preferred embodiments of the reticle device of the present invention for application to the diffusion process in the collapsed photodiode process will be specifically described below.

請參閱圖六A至圖六H,為本發明之光罩裝置應用於累增崩潰光二極體之傳統擴散製程的第一較佳實施例。於本第一較佳實施例中,該擴散程序係包括有下列步驟:Please refer to FIG. 6A to FIG. 6H, which is a first preferred embodiment of the conventional diffusion process of the photomask device of the present invention applied to accumulate crash LEDs. In the first preferred embodiment, the diffusion program includes the following steps:

(A)如圖六A所示,在該n型InP基材60之上表面形成一第一介電層61。於本實施例中,該第一介電層61的材質可以是氮化矽(Si3 N4 )且是藉由沈積製程所形成為較佳。(A) As shown in FIG. 6A, a first dielectric layer 61 is formed on the surface of the n-type InP substrate 60. In this embodiment, the material of the first dielectric layer 61 may be tantalum nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) and is preferably formed by a deposition process.

(B)如圖六B所示,藉由如圖五A所示之第一光罩41以及光阻製程將該第一介電層61定義出該第一圖案62。該第一圖案62由中心向外依序係包括有可透光之重複擴散區621、不可透光之第一阻隔環622、可透光之第一擴散環區623、不可透光之第二阻隔環624、以及可透光之保護環區625。(B) As shown in FIG. 6B, the first pattern 62 is defined by the first dielectric layer 61 by the first mask 41 and the photoresist process as shown in FIG. The first pattern 62 includes a light transmissive repeating diffusion region 621, a non-transmissive first blocking ring 622, a light transmissive first diffusion ring region 623, and a non-transparent second portion. A barrier ring 624 and a light-permeable guard ring region 625.

(C)如圖六C所示,藉由Si3 N4 之濕蝕刻或是乾蝕刻製程,將可透光(也就是暴露於外界)之第一介電層61部分去除。(C) As shown in FIG. 6C, the first dielectric layer 61 which is permeable to light (that is, exposed to the outside) is partially removed by a wet etching or dry etching process of Si 3 N 4 .

(D)如圖六D所示,以導電材料對該基材60進行第一次淺層擴散,而在基材60上未被第一介電層61覆蓋的區域形成至少一可導電的擴散層63。於本實施例中,該導電材料可以是鈹離子(Be)或鋅(Zn),且第一次淺層擴散製程可以是熱擴散製程為佳。其中,因為在熱擴散的過程中,不僅在縱向會擴散,且於橫向上也同樣會擴散,所以可以控制特定的擴散時間使重複擴散區621a因為側擴而和第一擴散環區623a融合在一起。換句話說,該擴散層63在重複擴散區621a與第一擴散環區623a於側向上在對應於第一阻隔環622a區域處係融合在一起;而因為保護環625a與第一擴散環區623a間隔較遠(亦即第二阻隔環624a之寬度w2較大),所不會融合在一起。(D) As shown in FIG. 6D, the substrate 60 is firstly shallowly diffused with a conductive material, and at least a region of the substrate 60 not covered by the first dielectric layer 61 forms at least one conductive diffusion. Layer 63. In this embodiment, the conductive material may be bismuth ion (Be) or zinc (Zn), and the first shallow diffusion process may be a thermal diffusion process. Wherein, in the process of thermal diffusion, not only in the longitudinal direction but also in the lateral direction, the diffusion time can be controlled, so that the specific diffusion time can be controlled so that the repeated diffusion region 621a is merged with the first diffusion ring region 623a due to side expansion. together. In other words, the diffusion layer 63 is fused together in the lateral direction with respect to the first barrier ring 622a in the repeated diffusion region 621a and the first diffusion ring region 623a; and because the guard ring 625a and the first diffusion ring region 623a The spacing is relatively long (that is, the width w2 of the second blocking ring 624a is large) and does not fuse together.

(E)如圖六E所示,在第一介電層61與導電區63上形成一第二介電層64。其中,該第二介電層64的材質可以是二氧化矽(SiO2 )且是藉由沈積製程所形成為較佳。(E) As shown in FIG. 6E, a second dielectric layer 64 is formed on the first dielectric layer 61 and the conductive region 63. The material of the second dielectric layer 64 may be cerium oxide (SiO 2 ) and is preferably formed by a deposition process.

(F)如圖六F所示,藉由第二光罩42以光阻將該第二介電層64定義出該第二圖案65。該第二圖案65係包括了可透光之第二擴散區651。(F) The second dielectric layer 64 is defined by the second photomask 64 by the second mask 42 as shown in FIG. The second pattern 65 includes a second diffusible region 651 that is transparent to light.

(G)如圖六G所示,藉由SiO2 之濕蝕刻或是乾蝕刻製程,將可透光部分之第二介電層64部分去除。於本步驟時,由於蝕刻製程對SiO2 與Si3 N4 兩者的蝕刻速度不同,所以SiO2 薄膜會被蝕刻掉,但是下面Si3 N4 薄膜依然存在,且所形成暴露於外界之光窗依然是由第一光罩所定義之該重複擴散區621a。(G) As shown in FIG. 6G, the second dielectric layer 64 of the light transmissive portion is partially removed by a wet etching or dry etching process of SiO 2 . In this step, since the etching process has different etching rates for both SiO 2 and Si 3 N 4 , the SiO 2 film is etched away, but the underlying Si 3 N 4 film still exists and the light exposed to the outside is formed. The window is still the repeating diffusion zone 621a defined by the first reticle.

(H)以如前所述之導電材料對該基材60進行第二次擴散,而在基材60上未被第二介電層64與第一介電層61覆蓋的區域形成深層擴散區65。(H) performing a second diffusion of the substrate 60 with the conductive material as described above, and forming a deep diffusion region on the substrate 60 without the region covered by the second dielectric layer 64 and the first dielectric layer 61. 65.
