接著,以圖案化罩幕層122的圖案作為蝕刻罩幕,圖案化並蝕刻頂層120,且在圖案化頂層120時移除圖案化罩幕層122。接著,以頂層120的圖案做為蝕刻罩幕,圖案化並蝕刻中間層118,並在圖案化中間層118時移除頂層120。由於阻擋層114與中間層118具有蝕刻選擇比,阻擋層114正上方的圖案化光阻層130及圖案化罩幕層122的圖案並未形成於中間層118。
Next, using the pattern of the patterned
接著,以中間層118及阻擋層114做為蝕刻罩幕,圖案化並蝕刻底層112,並在圖案化底層112時移除中間層118。由於阻擋層114與底層112及中間層118具有蝕刻選擇比,阻擋層114餘留於底層112上方。在一些實施例中,由於形成阻擋層114於三層罩幕結構121之中,阻擋層114正上方圖案化光阻層130及圖案化罩幕層122的圖案並未轉移至底層112,而在阻擋層114正下方的底層112形成保護環104的圖案。
Then, using the
接著,如第2F圖所示,移除阻擋結構114’並露出其下方的底層112。可以濕蝕刻製程或乾蝕刻製程移除阻擋結構114’。在一些實施例中,以濕
蝕刻製程,包括使用磷酸(H3PO4)蝕刻溶液移除阻擋結構114’。
Next, as shown in Figure 2F, the barrier structure 114' is removed and the
接著,如第2G圖所示,以底層112作為罩幕,圖案化基板108。可以底層112作為蝕刻罩幕,圖案化氧化層110並移除底層112之後,再以氧化層圖案110作為蝕刻罩幕,圖案化基板108。基板108包括第一部分102、第二部份104、及第三部分106。基板108的第一部份102位於陣列區域10a中,可為主動區陣列102。主動區陣列102中每一主動區102的寬度102W大抵相等。此外,每一主動區102中的每一部分具有大抵相等的高度102H。基板108的第二部分104位於周圍區域10b中,可為保護環104。保護環104包圍主動區陣列102,且抵接陣列區域10a及周圍區域10b的界面。在一些實施例中,保護環104的寬度104W大於每一主動區102的寬度102W。在一些實施例中,保護環104的寬度104W在約150nm至約400nm的範圍。保護環104的寬度104W與每一主動區102的寬度102W的比例在約3至約8的範圍。在一些實施例中,保護環104具有平坦的上表面,且保護環104的每一部分具有大抵相等的高度104H。
Next, as shown in FIG. 2G , the
基板108的第三部分106位於周圍區域10b中,可為周圍結構106。在一些實施例中,保護環104的寬度104W大於周圍結構106的寬度106W。
The
接著,如第2H圖所示,在每一主動區102之間的溝槽中形成淺溝槽隔離結構132,淺溝槽隔離結構132的側壁及底部可形成襯層。接著,在淺溝槽隔離結構132上以及淺溝槽隔離結構132之間形成字元線134。字元線134可包括閘極介電層、阻障層、及導電層。接著,以隔離材料136填充字元線134上方的溝槽。
Next, as shown in FIG. 2H , a shallow
如上所述,藉由形成阻擋結構於抵接陣列區域的周圍區域之中,且將形成主動區陣列的圖案化光阻層的圖案延伸於阻擋結構的正上方,主動區陣列光阻圖案產生鄰近效應的邊緣部分可位於阻擋結構的正上方。因此,在圖案化基板時,阻擋結構可阻擋主動區陣列圖案邊緣的鄰近效應,使得在陣列區 域中每一主動區的大小大抵相同。如此一來,可節省進行光學鄰近效應修正的成本及時間。此外,阻擋結構下方的基板可同時形成保護環。 As mentioned above, by forming the blocking structure in the surrounding area abutting the array area, and extending the pattern of the patterned photoresist layer forming the active area array directly above the blocking structure, the active area array photoresist pattern generates adjacent The edge portion of the effect can be located directly above the barrier structure. Therefore, when patterning the substrate, the barrier structure can block the proximity effect at the edge of the array pattern in the active area, so that in the array area Each active area in the domain is approximately the same size. In this way, the cost and time of optical proximity effect correction can be saved. In addition, the substrate underneath the barrier structure can simultaneously form a protective ring.
