Definitions
- This invention relates to a dipping solution used in a process for producing a siliceous film provided in an electronic device, and also relates to the process using the solution for producing a siliceous film.
- the present invention relates to a dipping solution used for forming a shallow trench isolation structure or an insulating film from a polysilazane compound.
- the shallow trench isolation structure or the insulating film is provided for isolation of electronic parts in manufacture of an electronic device such as a semiconductor element.
- the present invention also relates to a process for producing the shallow trench isolation structure or the insulating film.
- semiconductor parts such as transistors, resistors and the like are arranged on a substrate. Those parts must be electrically isolated from each other, and hence among them it is necessary to form an area separating them. This area is referred to as an “isolation area”. Hitherto, the isolation area has been generally provided by forming an insulating film selectively on the surface of the semiconductor substrate.
- a trench isolation structure is proposed.
- the trench isolation structure is fabricated by forming fine trenches on a semiconductor substrate and then by filling the trenches with insulating material so as to electrically separate the part positioned on one side from that on the other side of each trench.
- the structure thus electrically separating the parts can reduce the isolation area, as compared with the conventional insulating film, and accordingly is effective in achieving the integration degree required in these days.
- a CVD method or a high density plasma CVD method for example, can be used (see, for example, Patent document 1).
- a CVD method or a high density plasma CVD method for example, can be used (see, for example, Patent document 1).
- the trenches having fineness required in these days, for example, the trenches of 100 nm width or less are filled in according to those methods, some voids are often contained in the filled trenches. These structural defects are liable to deteriorate the physical strength of the substrate and/or to impair the isolation characteristics.
- the present inventors have found that, in producing the trench isolation structure, a siliceous film formed in the above manner is etched so unevenly that the etching rate at the surface is different from that in the trenches.
- the reason of this is presumed to be as follows.
- the polysilazane is converted into silicon dioxide to form the siliceous film
- the reaction conditions at the surface are delicately different from those in the trenches.
- the characteristics of the siliceous film in the trenches are different from those out of the trenches, and also they depend on the depth in the trenches.
- the siliceous film is inhomogeneous in terms of the etching rate.
- This problem is remarkable when the film is subjected to a low temperature treatment, which is often required by restrictions on the device design and/or on the process design.
- the etching rate is particularly large at positions in trenches having high aspect ratios.
- Patent document 1 Japanese Patent No. 3178412 (paragraph: 0005 to 0016)
- Patent document 2 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9 (1997)-31333
- Patent document 3 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-308090
- Patent document 4 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-45230
- the characteristics thereof in trenches are so inhomogeneous that the deeper the position is, the worse the film characteristics are.
- the film characteristics are greatly dependent on the depth.
- the present invention resides in a dipping solution in which a substrate coated with a polysilazane composition is dipped before firing in a process for producing a siliceous film; comprising hydrogen peroxide, a foam-deposit inhibitor selected from the group consisting of an alcohol, a surfactant and a mixture thereof, and a solvent other than said alcohol.
- the present invention also resides in a process for producing a siliceous film, comprising:
- a coating step in which a substrate surface having concave portions and convex portions is coated with a composition containing a polysilazane compound,
- a hardening step in which the dipped substrate is heated so as to convert the polysilazane compound into a siliceous film.
- the present invention enables to form a covering film homogeneously in trenches even if the trenches have very high aspect ratios or very narrow widths. According to the present invention, coating type insulating films formed from polysilazane can be still effectively employed even in forming such high aspect ratio trenches as are necessary for the next generation devices. Further, the present invention is free from demerits of a dipping solution because foam deposition is avoided in the dipping solution of the present invention.
- a substrate coated with a polysilazane composition is dipped before fired in the siliceous film-production process described later.
- the polysilazane composition is heated and fired to undergo an oxidation reaction for forming a siliceous film.
- the composition is treated with the dipping solution of the invention before fired, and thereby the composition filling in the trenches is oxidized to the same degree as that applied on the flat substrate surface and, as a result, a homogeneous siliceous film can be formed.
- the dipping solution according to the present invention comprises hydrogen peroxide, a foam-deposit inhibitor, and a solvent. Each component is described below.
- Hydrogen peroxide is a well-known oxidizing agent. However, in the present invention, it is not by the hydrogen peroxide in the dipping solution but by firing that the polysilazane is mainly oxidized to form a siliceous film. The hydrogen peroxide plays as an auxiliary role for homogeneously oxidizing the whole coating layer of the polysilazane composition.
- the polysilazane coating layer formed on a substrate surface having concave portions and convex portions can be converted into a siliceous film homogeneously even in trenches, it is presumed to be necessary that oxygen sources should be rapidly diffused in the layer independently of its thickness and also that they should be rapidly reacted with the polysilazane.
- the polysilazane coating layer is dipped in an aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution to be preliminarily oxidized, and therefore it is thought to be possible to obtain a siliceous film homogeneous even in fine trenches.
- pure hydrogen peroxide is an unstable liquid, it is generally treated in the form of aqueous solution.
- aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution is generally used to prepare the dipping solution of the present invention.
- hydrogen peroxide in the form of aqueous solution is preferably incorporated in the dipping solution so that the resultant solution may contain hydrogen peroxide in a desired concentration.
- Hydrogen peroxide formed by electrolysis of aqueous ammonium hydrogensulfate solution or by hydrolysis of peroxo acids may be contained in the dipping solution. However, it is easier to employ the aqueous solution.
- the dipping solution contains hydrogen peroxide preferably as much as possible.
- the content of hydrogen peroxide is preferably lower than a certain degree.
- the amount of hydrogen peroxide is preferably 30 to 60 wt %, more preferably 30 to 35 wt % based on the total amount of the components.
- the dipping solution of the present invention comprises a foam-deposit inhibitor.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor in the dipping solution has function of decreasing bubbles deposited on the substrate placed in the solution. If bubbles are attached on the substrate in the dipping solution, they remain even after the substrate is taken out of the solution. Consequently, the remaining bubbles increase the surface area of the substrate. The larger the surface area is, the more easily contaminant such as dust is deposited from air on the surface to cause defects of the resultant siliceous film.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor in the present invention can prevent bubbles from forming and thereby can improve the quality of the resultant siliceous film. Further, the inhibitor also has function of further homogenizing the siliceous film after fired.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor used in the present invention is selected from the group consisting of an alcohol, a surfactant and a mixture thereof.
- the alcohol and the surfactant may be used singly or in combination. Further, two or more alcohols or surfactants may be selected to use in combination as the above alcohol or surfactant, respectively.
- the “alcohol” means a substance derived from a hydrocarbon by replacing at least one hydrogen atom therein with a hydroxyl group.
- the alcohol is preferably a monool, diol or triol derived from a saturated hydrocarbon containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms by replacing hydrogen atoms therein with 1 to 3 hydroxyl groups.
- the alcohol it is preferred for the alcohol to have function of reducing the surface tension so as to prevent foam formation, to have a low boiling point so as not to remain in the resultant siliceous film, and to have low reactivity with other components such as hydrogen peroxide. Accordingly, it is preferred to adopt an alcohol of relatively low molecular weight. Examples of the preferred alcohol include methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, iso-propanol and a mixture thereof.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor may be a surfactant.
- a surfactant there are known various surfactants, and any of them can be used according to necessity. However, a nonionic surfactant is preferred because it less remains in the resultant siliceous film to impair the characteristics as an insulating film, such as the dielectric constant thereof.
- One of the preferred surfactants is a polyoxyethylene alkyl ether.
- the dipping solution should contain the foam-deposit inhibitor preferably as much as possible.
- the content of foam-deposit inhibitor is preferably lower than a certain degree.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor is an alcohol, its content is preferably 1 to 20 wt %, more preferably 1 to 10 wt %.
- the foam-deposit inhibitor is a surfactant, particularly, a nonionic surfactant, its content is preferably 0.1 to 20 wt %, more preferably 0.1 to 10 wt %.
- the dipping solution of the present invention comprises a solvent.
- the solvent homogeneously dissolves the hydrogen peroxide and the foam-deposit inhibitor described above. If the foam-deposit inhibitor is an alcohol, the alcohol is a liquid capable of serving as the solvent.
- the “solvent” in the present invention does not include the alcohol. In other words, the “solvent” in the present invention is selected from substances other than the above alcohol.
- any solvent can be selected as long as it can dissolve the above components homogeneously, but the solvent is preferably water.
- Water of high purity such as distilled water or deionized water is preferably used so that impurities may not attach onto the substrate. This means that, if the hydrogen peroxide or the foam-deposit inhibitor is used in the form of aqueous solution, its solvent (namely, water) can be regarded as the solvent of the dipping solution.
- the dipping solution of the present invention is prepared by mixing and dissolving the above components homogeneously. In the preparation, there is no restriction on the order of mixing. Since the prepared dipping solution contains relatively unstable hydrogen peroxide, it should be stored in a cool dark place.
- the siliceous film-production process comprises (a) coating a substrate surface having concave portions and convex portions with a composition containing a polysilazane compound, (b) dipping the coated substrate in the above dipping solution, and (c) heating the dipped substrate so as to convert the polysilazane compound into a siliceous film.
- the substrate is a bare silicon wafer or a silicon wafer coated with a thermally oxidized film or with a silicon nitride film.
- a wafer is fabricated to form grooves or holes thereon according to the aimed semiconductor element or the like, and the obtained substrate having concave portions and convex portions is employed in the present invention.
- the concave portion or the convex portion corresponds to a trench isolation structure or a contact hole, and hence is freely selected according to the necessity.
- a trench isolation structure is to be formed, it is general to use a silicon substrate provided with an aimed trench pattern.
- the trench pattern may be formed by any method, and hence it can be formed, for example, in the following manner.
- a silicon dioxide layer is formed on a silicon substrate by, for example, thermal oxidation.
- the thickness of the layer is generally 5 to 30 nm.
- a silicon nitride layer is formed by, for example, a low pressure CVD method.
- the silicon nitride layer serves as a mask in the etching step performed later or as a stop layer in the polishing step described later.
- the silicon nitride layer generally has a thickness of 100 to 400 nm, if formed.
- the formed silicon dioxide or silicon nitride layer is then coated with a photoresist.
- the applied photoresist layer is exposed to light and developed to form an aimed pattern.
- the exposure may be performed in any manner. For example, mask exposure or scanning exposure can be carried out.
- any resist can be selected in view of, for example, resolution.
- the silicon nitride layer and the underlying silicon dioxide layer are successively etched to form the aimed pattern in the silicon nitride and silicon dioxide layers.
- the silicon substrate is subjected to dry-etching to form trench isolation grooves.
- the widths of the trench isolation grooves are determined by the pattern previously formed by exposure of the photoresist.
- Trench isolation grooves in semiconductor elements generally have different widths depending on the elements, but their widths are normally 0.02 to 10 ⁇ m, preferably 0.05 to 5 ⁇ m. Their depths are normally 200 to 1000 nm, preferably 300 to 700 nm.
- the method of the present invention can homogeneously fill in narrower and deeper grooves than conventional siliceous film-formation methods. Accordingly, the method of the present invention is suitable for forming a narrower and deeper trench isolation structure.
- the method according to the present invention can form a siliceous film homogeneously even in deep parts of those grooves.
- the prepared silicon substrate is then coated with a polysilazane composition, which is a material of the siliceous film, to form a coating layer.
- the polysilazane composition can be prepared by dissolving any known polysilazane compound in a solvent.
- any polysilazane compound can, be selected to use unless it impairs the effect of the invention. It may be either an inorganic polysilazane compound or an organic one.
- Preferred examples of the inorganic polysilazane compound include: a perhydropolysilazane having a weight average molecular weight of 3000 to 20000 in terms of polystyrene; and another perhydropolysilazane which has a molecular weight of 690 to 200, which contains 3 to 10 number of SiH 3 groups, in which element ratios based on the chemical analysis are Si: 59 to 61 wt %, N: 31 to 34 wt % and H, 6.5 to 7.5 wt % and which comprises a straight chain structure having a repeating unit represented by the following formula (I):

There is no particular restriction on the solvent as long as it can dissolve the above components.
- Preferred examples of the solvent include:
- aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, diethylbenzene, trimethylbenzene and triethylbenzene

- Those solvents can be used in combination of two or more, so as to control the evaporation rate, to reduce the hazardousness to the human body and to control the solubility of the components.
- the polysilazane composition used in the present invention can contain other additives, if necessary.
- the optional additives include cross linking accelerators and viscosity modifiers.

- the resultant film can have a favorable thickness, for example, of 2000 to 8000 ⁇ .
- the above polysilazane composition can be applied on the substrate according to known methods, such as spin coating, dip coating, spray coating, print-transfer coating and the like. Among them, spin coating is particularly preferred.
- the coated substrate may be then subjected to preliminary heating (pre-baking) to remove (to dry) excess organic solvent from the coating layer formed on the substrate surface, if necessary. Thereafter, the substrate is placed in the dipping solution.
- the preliminary heating does not aim to harden the polysilazane, and hence is carried out generally at a low temperature for a short time, for example, at 70 to 150° C., preferably 100 to 150° C., and for 1 to 10 minutes, preferably 3 to 5 minutes.
- temperature of the substrate is placed in the dipping solution, namely, the temperature of the dipping solution.
- the temperature of the dipping solution is normally 20 to 50° C., preferably 20 to 30° C.
- the dipping time depends on various conditions such as the thickness of the coating layer, the kind of the polysilazane compound and the concentration of the dipping solution, but is normally 1 to 30 minutes, preferably 10 to 30 minutes.
- bubbles are hardly deposited on the substrate in the dipping solution of the present invention. Accordingly, contaminant such as dust is hardly attached on the substrate surface in the subsequent steps, and hence defects of the resultant substrate can be decreased.
- the substrate is fired to convert the polysilazane compound on the substrate surface into a siliceous film.
- the heating procedure is preferably performed in an atmosphere containing steam, oxygen gas or mixed gas thereof, namely, in an oxidative atmosphere.

- the substrate must be heated at such a temperature that the polysilazane compound can be converted into a siliceous film.
- the temperature is preferably 400 to 1200° C., more preferably 400 to 700° C.
- the heating time can be properly determined according to the heating temperature, but is normally 0.5 to 5 hours, preferably 0.5 to 1 hour. If the substrate is heated in high moisture atmosphere, the temperature and time necessary for the conversion can be lowered and shortened, respectively.
- the process described above forms a homogeneous siliceous film even in concave portions of a substrate. Accordingly, the present invention enables to form a homogeneous siliceous film even in trench isolation grooves of high aspect ratio and consequently to obtain a trench isolation structure of high quality.
- a perhydropolysilazane was dissolved in dibutyl ether in an amount of 20%, to prepare a polysilazane composition.
- the polysilazane composition was then spin-coated at 1000 rpm for 20 seconds on a TEG substrate whose surface was beforehand covered with a silicon nitride liner layer.
- the obtained coating layer had a thickness of approx. 0.6 ⁇ m.
- the TEG substrate was provided with a line-and-space pattern of, in order, 0.05 ⁇ m, 0.1 ⁇ m, 0.2 ⁇ m, 0.5 ⁇ m and 1.0 ⁇ m.
- the coated substrate was pre-baked on a hot-plate at 150° C. for 3 minutes.
- the pre-baked polysilazane layer was dipped for 30 minutes in a dipping solution containing 35% hydrogen peroxide and 10% ethanol, and then post-baked on the hot-plate at 150° C. for 3 minutes.
- the obtained layer was observed by FT-IR, to find an absorption peak assigned to Si—O bond at 1080 cm ⁇ 1 .
- the substrate was placed in a cure furnace under a pure oxygen atmosphere while the temperature thereof was kept at 200° C. Thereafter, the temperature was raised at 10° C./minute to 400° C., at which the substrate was heated to harden the layer for 30 minutes in an 80% steam-containing oxygen atmosphere.
- the thickness of the resultant film was measured to calculate the volume shrinkage ratio of the coating layer converted into the siliceous film. The results are as follows.
- the substrate coated with the film was cut perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the grooves. Subsequently, after dipped at 23° C. for 30 seconds in a 0.5 wt % aqueous hydrofluoric acid solution, the substrate was washed well with pure water and dried. The deepest parts in the grooves appearing on the section of the obtained substrate were observed by SEM having a magnification of 50000 at an elevation angle of 30° with the direction perpendicularly to the section, to evaluate the etched amount. As a result, if the substrate was not treated with the dipping solution, the bottoms of the trenches were found to be etched with a great degree that the film was inhomogeneous in the inside of the trenches. In contrast, if the substrate was treated with the dipping solution, the bottoms of the trenches were found to be etched a little. The formed film was homogeneous even in the trenches.
- the dipped TEG substrates of Example and Comparative Example were fired at 400° C. for 30 minutes in an 80% steam atmosphere. Thereafter, number of defects formed on the surfaces of the fired TEG substrates was evaluated by means of a defect inspection system (KLA-2115 [trademark], manufactured by KLA-Tencor Corp.). Independently, the substrate not treated with the dipping solution was also subjected to the same evaluation by way of reference. The results were as set forth in Table 1.
