動態隨機存取記憶體(DRAM)在隨著元件發展到奈米世代後,面臨到的困難愈來愈多,譬如讀出裕度(sensing margin)變小。目前針對改善讀出裕度的關鍵技術有三個,包括更大的儲存電容、更小的位元線間的電容量(BL capacitance,Cb)以及更小的雜訊(noise)。以目前的DRAM製程來看,因為電容器彼此的距離已經不能再縮小,所以不容易往增加儲存電容方式來改善讀出裕度。 Dynamic random access memory (DRAM) faces more and more difficulties as components develop into the nano generation, such as the sensing margin becomes smaller. There are currently three key technologies for improving read margins, including larger storage capacitors, smaller capacitance (BL capacitance, Cb), and smaller noise. In the current DRAM process, since the distance between the capacitors can no longer be reduced, it is not easy to increase the storage capacitance to improve the read margin.
因此,亟需尋求其他方式來改善奈米世代後的DRAM之讀出裕度。 Therefore, there is an urgent need to find other ways to improve the readout margin of DRAM after the nano generation.

The buried word lines are arranged in parallel along the second direction in the 矽 substrate, and two buried word lines are disposed between each second isolation trench structure to divide each active area into A bit line contact window between the two buried word lines and two capacitor contact windows. The buried bit lines are arranged in parallel in a third direction in the germanium substrate, and the buried bit lines are above the buried word lines and electrically connected to the bit line contact windows of the active area. The capacitor is disposed on the active region and electrically connected to the capacitor contact window. An oxide liner is further disposed between the buried bit line and the germanium substrate.

請同時參照圖1A、1B與1C,本實施例之動態隨機存取記憶體包括矽基板100、第一隔離溝渠結構102、第二隔離溝渠結構104、主動區域106、位在矽基板100內的埋入式字元線108、位在矽基板100內的埋入式位元線110以及電容器112。為了清楚說明動態隨機存取記憶體的線路,圖1A中僅顯示以上構件,其他結構可見圖1B和圖1C的剖面圖。 Referring to FIG. 1A, FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C, the dynamic random access memory of the present embodiment includes a germanium substrate 100, a first isolation trench structure 102, a second isolation trench structure 104, an active region 106, and a germanium substrate 100. The buried word line 108, the buried bit line 110 located in the germanium substrate 100, and the capacitor 112. In order to clearly illustrate the line of the DRAM, only the above components are shown in FIG. 1A, and other structures can be seen in the cross-sectional views of FIGS. 1B and 1C.
在第一實施例中,第一隔離溝渠結構102沿第一方向平行排列在矽基板100內、第二隔離溝渠結構104沿第二方向平行排列在矽基板100內,其中第一方向與第二方向在本實施例是夾一銳角θ,但本發明並不限於此。由上述第一與第二隔離溝渠結構102和104所定義的區域即主動區域106。至於埋入式字元線108是沿第二方向平行排列在矽基板100內,且兩兩第二隔離溝渠結構104之間設置有兩個埋入式字元線108,以將每個主動區域106分為一個位在兩埋入式字元線108之間的位元線接觸窗114以及兩個電容器接觸窗(capacitor contact,CC)116。而埋入式位元線110是沿第三方向平行排列在矽基板100內,且埋入式位元線110位於埋入式字元線108上方並與主動區域106的位元線接觸窗114 電性連接,譬如通過設置在埋入式位元線110與位元線接觸窗114之間的磊晶層或多晶矽(poly)層118,使埋入式位元線110與位元線接觸窗114電性相連並降低阻值。至於電容器112是設置在主動區域106上並與電容器接觸窗116電性連接,譬如通過設置在電容器112與電容器接觸窗116之間的磊晶層120,使兩者電性相連並降低阻值。 In the first embodiment, the first isolation trench structures 102 are arranged in parallel in the first direction in the first substrate 100, and the second isolation trench structures 104 are arranged in parallel in the second direction in the second substrate 100, wherein the first direction and the second direction are The direction is an acute angle θ in the present embodiment, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The active area 106 is defined by the first and second isolation trench structures 102 and 104 described above. The buried word lines 108 are arranged in parallel in the second direction in the second substrate 100, and two buried word lines 108 are disposed between the two second isolation trench structures 104 to each active area. 106 is divided into a bit line contact window 114 between the two buried word lines 108 and two capacitor contact (CC) 116. The buried bit line 110 is arranged in parallel along the third direction in the germanium substrate 100, and the buried bit line 110 is located above the buried word line 108 and is in contact with the bit line 114 of the active region 106. Electrically connected, such as by an epitaxial layer or polysilicon layer 118 disposed between the buried bit line 110 and the bit line contact window 114, such that the buried bit line 110 and the bit line contact window 114 is electrically connected and reduces the resistance. As for the capacitor 112, it is disposed on the active region 106 and electrically connected to the capacitor contact window 116. For example, through the epitaxial layer 120 disposed between the capacitor 112 and the capacitor contact window 116, the two are electrically connected and the resistance is lowered.
請繼續參照圖1B和圖1C,在埋入式位元線110與矽基板100之間還設有氧化襯層(oxide liner)122,以隔離埋入式位元線110與矽基板100並藉此降低位元線間的電容量(BL capacitance,Cb)。另外,在主動區域106的位元線接觸窗114內如有摻雜區124,則有利於電性操作。在埋入式位元線110與埋入式字元線108之間則可利用如氮化矽層126之類的膜層來進行隔離。而在埋入式位元線110上方可設置氮化矽層127來隔絕埋入式位元線110和電容器接觸窗116。另外,埋入式字元線108與埋入式位元線110一般是由金屬與阻障層構成,所以圖中的埋入式字元線108與埋入式位元線110跟矽基板100之間都有薄氧化層128來作隔絕。舉例來說,埋入式位元線110可為W/TiN/Ti或W/TiN/Ti/poly的結構。另外,在薄氧化層128上可形成一層氮化矽層129,當作電容器112之圖案定義時的控制層(control layer),而電容器112通常設置在矽基底100上的絕緣層130內,並且由兩層導體層132夾一層介電層134所構成,其中導體層132如為TiN(或TiN/SiGe)、介電層134如為ZAZ(即ZrO2/Al2O3/ZrO2)之類的介電 材料,則可適用於60nm以下的DRAM。由於位元線110埋入矽基板100內,所以可降低電容器接觸窗116與埋入式位元線110之間的耦合電容量(coupling capacitance)。 Referring to FIG. 1B and FIG. 1C , an oxide liner 122 is further disposed between the buried bit line 110 and the germanium substrate 100 to isolate the buried bit line 110 from the germanium substrate 100. This reduces the capacitance between the bit lines (BL capacitance, Cb). In addition, if there is a doped region 124 within the bit line contact window 114 of the active region 106, electrical operation is facilitated. Between the buried bit line 110 and the buried word line 108, a film layer such as a tantalum nitride layer 126 can be used for isolation. A tantalum nitride layer 127 may be disposed over the buried bit line 110 to insulate the buried bit line 110 and the capacitor contact window 116. In addition, the buried word line 108 and the buried bit line 110 are generally composed of a metal and a barrier layer, so the buried word line 108 and the buried bit line 110 in the figure follow the substrate 100. There is a thin oxide layer 128 between them for isolation. For example, the buried bit line 110 can be a W/TiN/Ti or W/TiN/Ti/poly structure. In addition, a layer of tantalum nitride 129 may be formed on the thin oxide layer 128 as a control layer when the pattern of the capacitor 112 is defined, and the capacitor 112 is usually disposed in the insulating layer 130 on the germanium substrate 100, and The dielectric layer 132 is composed of a dielectric layer 134, wherein the conductive layer 132 is TiN (or TiN/SiGe), and the dielectric layer 134 is ZAZ (ie, ZrO 2 /Al 2 O 3 /ZrO 2 ). Dielectric materials of the type can be applied to DRAMs below 60 nm. Since the bit line 110 is buried in the germanium substrate 100, the coupling capacitance between the capacitor contact window 116 and the buried bit line 110 can be reduced.

The layer 240 is then exposed and self-aligned to the capacitor contact window to remove the hafnium oxide layer 216 of FIG. 2F to expose the capacitor contact window 212. Next, a structure such as an epitaxial layer 242 may be grown on the surface of the capacitor contact window 212 to lower the resistance.
然後,請參照圖2H的(I)~(III),其中(II)~(III)是分別為(I)的各線段的剖面。在矽基板200上先形成氧化矽層246和氮化矽層248,再沉積厚度1μm以上的氧化層250作為後續電容器製作用。之後,利用氮化矽層248作為控制層,定義出電容器開口244,然後在電容器開口244形成與電容器接觸窗212電性連接的數個電容器252,其中電容器252例如由兩層導體層夾一層介電層所構成。譬如用於60nm以下的DRAM的話,與電容器接觸窗212(表面之磊晶層242)接觸的導體層可用TiN、介電層可用選自ZrO2、Al2O3、HfO2所組成之群組的介電材料、最外層的導體層可用TiN再加上一層降低應力的SiGe層,然本發明並不限於此。 Then, refer to (I) to (III) of FIG. 2H, wherein (II) to (III) are cross sections of the respective line segments of (I). A tantalum oxide layer 246 and a tantalum nitride layer 248 are first formed on the tantalum substrate 200, and an oxide layer 250 having a thickness of 1 μm or more is deposited as a subsequent capacitor. Thereafter, a capacitor opening 244 is defined by using a tantalum nitride layer 248 as a control layer, and then a plurality of capacitors 252 are formed in the capacitor opening 244 to be electrically connected to the capacitor contact window 212, wherein the capacitor 252 is sandwiched by, for example, two layers of conductor layers. The electric layer is composed of. For example, for a DRAM of 60 nm or less, the conductor layer in contact with the capacitor contact window 212 (the epitaxial layer 242 of the surface) may be TiN, and the dielectric layer may be a group selected from the group consisting of ZrO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , and HfO 2 . The dielectric material and the outermost conductor layer may be TiN plus a layer of stress-relieving SiGe layer, but the invention is not limited thereto.
圖3A至圖3C是依照本發明的第三實施例的一種動態隨機存取記憶體的製造流程示意圖,且本實施例是接續上圖2F,所以部分構件與第二實施例相同。 3A to 3C are schematic diagrams showing a manufacturing process of a dynamic random access memory according to a third embodiment of the present invention, and the present embodiment is continued from FIG. 2F, so that some of the components are the same as the second embodiment.
請參照圖3A的(I)~(III),其中(II)~(III)是分別為(I)的各線段的剖面。為了製作電容器,於埋入式位元線238上形成作為保護用的氮化矽層300,然後形成露出電容器接觸窗212的開口304,於電容器接觸窗212上沉積摻雜磷多晶矽層306,之後CMP或回蝕刻。 Please refer to (I) to (III) of FIG. 3A, wherein (II) to (III) are cross sections of the respective line segments of (I). To form a capacitor, a tantalum nitride layer 300 is formed as a protective layer on the buried bit line 238, and then an opening 304 is formed to expose the capacitor contact window 212, and a doped phosphor polysilicon layer 306 is deposited on the capacitor contact window 212, after which CMP or etch back.
然後,請參照圖3B的(II)~(III),可選擇在摻磷多晶矽層306形成金屬矽化層308(如CoSi或TiSi),然後沉積如Ti/TiN層310與鎢層312的導體結構,再進行蝕刻,以保留開口304上方的導體結構。 Then, referring to (II) to (III) of FIG. 3B, a metal germanide layer 308 (such as CoSi or TiSi) may be selectively formed in the phosphorus-doped polysilicon layer 306, and then a conductor structure such as a Ti/TiN layer 310 and a tungsten layer 312 may be deposited. Etching is then performed to preserve the conductor structure above the opening 304.
之後,請參照圖3C的(II)~(III),沉積氮化矽層314並進行平坦化,使其存於鎢層312之兩側。接著,在矽基板200上沉積另一氮化矽層318(作為電容器蝕刻之停止層),再沉積絕緣層320之後定義出電容器開口316,即可進行如圖2H的電容器製作流程,故不再贅述。 Thereafter, referring to (II) to (III) of FIG. 3C, a tantalum nitride layer 314 is deposited and planarized so as to be deposited on both sides of the tungsten layer 312. Next, another tantalum nitride layer 318 is deposited on the germanium substrate 200 (as a stop layer for capacitor etching), and after the insulating layer 320 is deposited, the capacitor opening 316 is defined, and the capacitor fabrication process as shown in FIG. 2H can be performed. Narration.
綜上所述,在本發明的DRAM中,字元線與位元線均埋設於基板內部,所以電容器接觸窗不會形成在位元線的側面,固可降低電容器接觸窗與位元線之間的耦合電容量,且埋入式位元線與矽基板之間有氧化襯層相隔,所以也能藉此降低位元線和矽晶材之間的漏電,並進而增加DRAM之讀出裕度。 In summary, in the DRAM of the present invention, both the word line and the bit line are buried inside the substrate, so the capacitor contact window is not formed on the side of the bit line, which can reduce the contact window and the bit line of the capacitor. The coupling capacitance between the buried bit line and the germanium substrate is separated by an oxide liner, so that the leakage between the bit line and the germanium crystal can be reduced, thereby increasing the readout margin of the DRAM. degree.
