Definitions
- the present invention relates to a ner driving for the production of dielectric
- Highly integrated microelectronic circuits consist of a large number of semiconducting elements, which are produced by selective doping and structuring of monocrystalline silicon. These individual semiconductor elements are connected to form a functioning unit by means of a layer structure consisting of conductor tracks and the intermediate layers required for insulation, the so-called interconnect.
- the progressive miniaturization places extreme demands on the materials used.
- the properties of the interconnect determine the performance characteristics of these highly integrated microelectronic circuits. These requirements are determined by the ever higher clock frequencies and the shorter signal delays required for this.
- a high conductivity of the conductor track material and a low dielectric constant of the insulator material are desired.
- the miniaturization of the semiconductor elements and the interconnect negatively influences the component properties.
- Conductor resistance increased.
- the interactions between the conductor tracks depend to a large extent on the relative dielectric constant ⁇ (the k value) of the insulator material. Attempts are made to counteract these technical difficulties by using conductor materials with a higher specific conductivity and insulator materials with a lower dielectric constant.
- the aluminum that was previously used as a conductor material is gradually being replaced by copper, which has a higher specific conductivity.
- silicon dioxide has proven itself as an insulator material in the manufacture of highly integrated circuits in both its electrical and process properties.
- the dielectric constant of silicon dioxide is approx.
- the value of the relative dielectric constant (k value) depends strongly on the temperature at which this value is determined.
- the values given here are understood to mean the values which result from a determination at 22 ° C. and a pressure of 1 bar.
- the dielectric constant (the k value)
- the dielectric material must be able to withstand high process temperatures up to 400 ° C, which are achieved in subsequent metallization and tempering steps.
- the layer materials or their precursors are available in sufficient purity, since impurities, in particular metals, can have a negative effect on the electrical properties of the layer materials.
- the dielectric material should be as easy to process as possible and be applied as a thin layer in an industry-standard process such as the spin coating process.
- silsesquioxanes and carbon-doped silicon dioxide have been described as dielectrics with a dielectric constant below 3.0.
- Organic polymers as dielectrics with a low dielectric constant have found their way into technical production.
- the properties of these polymers lead to considerable problems in process integration.
- Their limited chemical and mechanical stability at elevated temperatures limits the subsequent process steps.
- Necessary polishing steps are optimized, for example, on layers that are similar to silicon dioxide, and often lead to less than optimal results on organic polymer layers.
- Silsesquioxanes are organosilicon polymers that are applied as oligomer solutions in the spin coating process and then thermally crosslinked.
- WO 98/47944 AI teaches the use of organosilsesquioxanes for the production of layers with k values less than 2.7. However, these compounds can only be obtained from trialkoxysilanes via complex synthetic routes.
- US-A-5,906,859 teaches the application of oligomeric hydridosilsequioxanes which are thermally crosslinked to form polymers. Dielectric constants of 2.7-2.9 are achieved with the compounds described in US Pat. No. 5,906,859.
- Carbon-doped silicon dioxide is applied from organosilanes in a PE-CVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) process with reactive oxygen plasma.
- PE-CVD Pullasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition
- carbon-doped silicon dioxide Because of its silicon dioxide matrix, carbon-doped silicon dioxide has similar process properties to silicon dioxide and is therefore significantly lighter to integrate into the production process. The dielectric constant of these layers is reduced compared to silicon dioxide by the carbon content. US-A-6,054,206 teaches the application of such layers of gaseous organosilanes. However, the high vacuum plasma CND process is complex and involves high costs. With carbon-doped silicon dioxide layers, too
- WO 99/55526 A1 also describes the production of dielectric layers by means of a CND process, preferably a plasma CND process.
- a CND process preferably a plasma CND process.
- layers are obtained which have a backbone structure made of Si-O-Si bonds, organic side groups being bound to this structure.
- the CVD process is preferably carried out in such a way that the backbone has annular structures.
- Cyclic organosiloxanes are particularly suitable as precursors.
- the layers produced according to the examples have dielectric constants between 2.6 and 3.3.
- WO 00/75975 A2 teaches the use of polycarbosilanes which are applied from a solution and converted into polyorganosilicon layers with k values of less than 2.5 by thermal treatment in discrete steps.
- the polycarbosilanes used are hydridopolycarbosilanes which contain at least one
- Silicon-bonded hydrogen atom and preferably contain allyl substituents.
- Si-H bonds are sensitive to moisture and must therefore be handled accordingly.
- the platinum compounds used to cross-link Si-H compounds with unsaturated groups are undesirable as metallic impurities.
- the temperature treatment In order to achieve layers with low k values, the temperature treatment must be carried out under precisely controlled conditions, whereby various specified temperature steps must be observed.
- the air contained in the pores has a k-value of almost 1. Bring it into a dense one If the material contains air-filled pores, the average k-value of the material is made up of the k-value of the dense material and a proportion of the k-value of air. The effective k-value is thus reduced.
- the k value of pure silicon dioxide can thus be reduced from 4.0 to below 2.0, but this requires porosities> 90% (L. Hrubesch, Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc, 381,
- the principle can generally be applied to dense dielectric layers.
- k values below 2.0 can be achieved with much lower porosities, which in turn benefits the mechanical stability of the layers.
- German patent DE 196 03 241 Cl describes the production of multifunctional organosiloxanes which are used as crosslinkers in inorganic paints based on silica sol. After drying, these materials form soft
- Cl are known to have dielectric layers with low k values produced by thermal treatment.
- carbosilanes which have no Si-H bonds can be used. This is particularly surprising given the background of the teaching in WO 00/75975 A2, in which the last paragraph on page 8 explains that the manufacture of appropriate dielectric layers finally, polycarbosilanes are suitable which contain at least one hydrogen atom bonded to silicon.
- the dielectric layers according to the invention are similar in their composition to carbon-doped silicon dioxide, and combine low k values with the advantage of simple temperature treatment.
- the invention therefore relates to a method for producing dielectric layers, characterized in that sol-gel products of multifunctional carbosilanes are thermally treated.
- the invention further relates to the dielectric layers which can be produced by this method.
- the invention finally relates to the use of the dielectric
- sol-gel products which can be used in the process according to the invention can be:

- the thermal treatment takes place, for example, at temperatures between 100 and 800 ° C., preferably between 200 and 600 ° C., particularly preferably between 200 and 400 ° C.
- This thermal treatment serves to complete the crosslinking of the multifunctional carbosilanes and to remove the solvent, and furthermore the temperature treatment serves to create pores.
- the temperature treatment can be carried out in a very simple manner in one step at a fixed temperature. However, it is also possible to carry out the treatment in several steps according to a suitable temperature and time profile.

These remain in the layer during crosslinking and are only evaporated and / or decomposed into gaseous products during the subsequent temperature treatment.
- the temperature treatment can be carried out using conventional furnaces, RTP (Rapid Thermal Processing) furnaces, hotplates etc. However, it is also possible to supply the energy required for crosslinking and pore formation with the aid of microwaves, LR light, lasers or other high-energy electromagnetic radiation.
