Definitions

  • the present disclosure generally relates to front end of line (FEOL) plasma mediated ashing processes that provide effective removal of organic materials from a semiconductor substrate , while enabling reduced substrate oxidation and/or erosion during processing, and more particularly, to plasma mediated ashing processes wherein the ratios of active nitrogen and active oxygen in the plasma is substantially larger than the ratio of active nitrogen and active oxygen obtained from plasmas of oxygen (O 2 ) and nitrogen (N 2 ) gas mixtures.
  • FEOL front end of line
  • the integrated circuit manufacturing process can generally be divided into front end of line (FEOL) and back end of line (BEOL) processing.
  • FEOL processes are focused on fabrication of the different devices that make up the integrated circuit
  • BEOL processes are focused on forming metal interconnects between the different devices of the integrated circuit.
  • ITRS International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors
  • FEOL processing reveals critical performance challenges faced by future devices in a number of key areas including plasma ashing.
  • the roadmap for plasma ashing projects target silicon loss for the 45 nanometer (run) generation to being no greater than 0.4 angstroms per cleaning step and no greater than 0.3 angstroms for the 32 nm generation.
  • substrate damage may generally be in the form of substrate erosion (e.g., physical removal of a portion of the substrate caused by etching, sputtering, and the like), substrate oxidation, dopant bleaching/concentration changes, or combinations thereof. These changes are undesirable as they will change the electrical, chemical, and physical properties of the substrate layer. Moreover, small deviations in the patterned profiles formed in the underlayers can adversely impact device performance, yield, and reliability of the final integrated circuit.
  • a patterned photoresist layer is formed over the silicon substrate at the source and drain regions prior to carrying out a high dose implant.
  • the photoresist is subjected to relatively high energy ions that induce cross-linking reactions at a depth approximately equal to or slightly greater than the range of the ions in the photoresist.
  • This cross-linking reaction and the resultant loss of hydrogen creates a hardened upper portion of the photoresist layer, commonly referred to as the crust.
  • the physical and chemical properties of the crust vary depending on the implant conditions and are generally more resistant to plasma mediated ashing. Because of this, more aggressive plasma chemistries are needed to remove the resist.
  • Oxygen based plasma processes are typically oxygen (O 2 ) based followed by a wet clean step.
  • oxygen based plasma processes can result in significant amounts of substrate surface oxidation, typically on the order of about 10 angstroms or more.
  • silicon loss is generally known to be governed by silicon surface oxidation for plasma resist stripping processes
  • the use of oxygen (O 2 ) based plasma ashing processes is considered by many to be unacceptable for the 32 and beyond technology nodes for advanced logic devices, where almost "zero" substrate loss is required and new materials are being introduced such as embedded SiGe source/drain, high-k gate dielectrics, metal gates and NiSi contact which are extremely sensitive to surface oxidation.
  • ashing processes significantly differ from etching processes. Although both processes may be plasma mediated, an etching process is markedly different in that the plasma chemistry is chosen to permanently transfer an image into the substrate by removing portions of the substrate surface through openings in a photoresist mask.
  • the etching plasma generally exposes the substrate to high-energy ion bombardment at low temperatures and low pressures (of the order of millitorr) to physically remove selected portions of the substrate.
  • the selected portions of the substrate exposed to the ions are generally removed at a rate greater than the removal rate of the photoresist mask.
  • ashing processes generally refer to removing the photoresist mask and any polymers or residues formed during etching.
  • the ashing plasma chemistry is much less aggressive than etching chemistries and is generally chosen to remove the photoresist mask layer at a rate much greater than the removal rate of the underlying substrate. Moreover, most ashing processes heat the substrate to further increase the plasma reactivity and wafer throughput, and are performed at relatively higher pressures (on the order of a torr). Thus, etching and ashing processes are directed to removal of photoresist and polymer materials for very different purposes and as such, require completely different plasma chemistries and processes.
  • Successful ashing processes are not used to permanently transfer an image into the substrate. Rather, successful ashing processes are defined by the photoresist, polymer, and/or residue removal rates without affecting or removing underlying layers, e.g., the substrate, low k dielectric materials, and the like.

Abstract

L’invention concerne des procédés d’incinération médiée par plasma FEOL (Front End Of Line) destinés à éliminer des matériaux organiques d’un substrat, qui comprennent généralement l’exposition du substrat à un plasma pour éliminer sélectivement une résine photosensible, une résine photosensible implantée, des polymères et/ou des résidus du substrat. Selon l’invention, le plasma contient un rapport entre l’azote actif et l’oxygène actif qui est supérieur à un rapport entre l’azote actif et l’oxygène actif pouvant être obtenu à partir de plasmas de mélanges gazeux qui comprennent de l’oxygène gazeux et de l’azote gazeux. Le plasma présente un rendement élevé, tout en minimisant et/ou en empêchant l’oxydation du substrat et le blanchiment des dopants. L’invention concerne également des appareils à plasma.
