本发明属于半导体制造领域,具体涉及一种电容、该电容的制作方法及半导体设备。The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, and in particular relates to a capacitor, a method for manufacturing the capacitor and a semiconductor device.
背景技术Background technique
电容器作为电路中最基本的元件之一,对整个电子设备起着至关重要的作用。随着半导体技术的发展,薄膜沉积技术使电子元器件进入纳米级工艺制程,成为了电容器走向微型化、集成化的主要手段,一般将制备成的微型化的电容器称为微型电容。As one of the most basic components in a circuit, a capacitor plays a vital role in the entire electronic device. With the development of semiconductor technology, thin film deposition technology has enabled electronic components to enter the nano-scale process, becoming the main means for miniaturization and integration of capacitors. Micro-capacitors are generally referred to as microcapacitors.
目前,现有的微型电容一般包括上金属电极、下金属电极以及位于二者之间的电介质层,其中,上金属电极包括朝靠近下金属电极的方向依次层叠的W膜层和TiN膜层;下金属电极包括朝靠近上金属电极的方向依次层叠的TiN膜层、W膜层和TiN膜层;电介质层为Al2O3膜层。At present, the existing microcapacitor generally comprises an upper metal electrode, a lower metal electrode and a dielectric layer therebetween, wherein the upper metal electrode comprises a W film layer and a TiN film layer which are sequentially stacked in a direction close to the lower metal electrode; The lower metal electrode includes a TiN film layer, a W film layer, and a TiN film layer which are sequentially stacked in a direction close to the upper metal electrode; the dielectric layer is an Al 2 O 3 film layer.
上述电容在实际应用中存在以下问题,即:The above capacitors have the following problems in practical applications, namely:
由于上述电容的层数较多,结构复杂,导致制作工艺流程复杂,需要六步沉积工艺才能完成。而且,在这六步沉积工艺中,TiN膜层和W膜层均采用CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition,以下简称CVD)设备制备,而电介质层采用ALD(Atomic Layer Deposition,以下简称ALD)设备制备,这些设备相互独立,不能集成在一个真空传输系统内,在每个独立设备完成一工艺之后,需要将基片传递至下一工艺对应的独立设备。由于两个独立设备之间的基片传递会使基片暴露在空气中,上述电容的整个制备流程中基片会暴露在空气中五次,这不可避免地对沉积薄膜的表面造成污染。Due to the large number of layers of the above capacitors and the complicated structure, the manufacturing process is complicated, and a six-step deposition process is required to complete. Moreover, in the six-step deposition process, both the TiN film layer and the W film layer are prepared by a CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition, hereinafter referred to as CVD) device, and the dielectric layer is prepared by an ALD (Atomic Layer Deposition, hereinafter referred to as ALD) device. The devices are independent of each other and cannot be integrated into a vacuum transmission system. After each individual device completes a process, the substrate needs to be transferred to a separate device corresponding to the next process. Since substrate transfer between two separate devices exposes the substrate to air, the substrate is exposed to air five times throughout the preparation process of the above capacitors, which inevitably contaminates the surface of the deposited film.

上述电容是由金属层/电介质层/金属层组成的三层结构,类似于“三明治”结构,该结构简单,从而可以简化制作工艺流程,而且可以减少基片在传输过程中暴露在空气中的次数,从而可以在一定程度上减少薄膜表面的污染。The above capacitor is a three-layer structure composed of a metal layer/dielectric layer/metal layer, which is similar to a “sandwich” structure, which is simple in structure, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing the exposure of the substrate to the air during transmission. The number of times can reduce the contamination of the film surface to some extent.
在本实施例中,上述电容为沟槽电容,该电容还包括基底20,其可以采用SiO2或其它材质制作。并且,该基底20具有沟槽201。上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23形成于基底20的上述沟槽201所在的表面,且覆盖该表面。这里所指的表面既包括基底20的上述沟槽201所在的表面,又包括可暴露于空气的槽201的内表面。并且,在上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23形成之后,沟槽201被完全填充。In this embodiment, the capacitor is a trench capacitor, and the capacitor further includes a substrate 20, which may be made of SiO2 or other materials. Also, the substrate 20 has a trench 201. The upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23 are formed on the surface of the substrate 20 on which the above-described trench 201 is located, and cover the surface. The surface referred to herein includes both the surface on which the above-described groove 201 of the substrate 20 is located and the inner surface of the groove 201 which is exposed to the air. Also, after the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23 are formed, the trench 201 is completely filled.
可选的,上述电容为高密电容。所谓高密电容,是指在高密度的沟槽中沉积金属层及电介质层形成的电容。Optionally, the capacitor is a high-density capacitor. The so-called high-density capacitor refers to a capacitor formed by depositing a metal layer and a dielectric layer in a high-density trench.
可选的,上述金属层的材质包括Al、Au、Ti或者Cu等等。Optionally, the material of the metal layer includes Al, Au, Ti, Cu, or the like.
在本实施例中,上电极21和下电极22均采用物理气相沉积(Physical Vapor Deposition,以下简称PVD)工艺制备。在现有技术中,通常采用化学气相沉积(Chemical Vapor Deposition,以下简称CVD)工艺制备金属层,而本申请通过采用PVD工艺制备金属层,可以大大降低金属层的电阻率,提高金属层的致密性和表面平整度,例如,采用PVD工艺制备的Al层的电阻率比采用CVD工艺制备的W层的电阻率低近百倍,而且Al层在上述沟槽201的内侧壁的厚度相比于W层减薄很多,当电介质层23的厚度恒定时,金属层的厚度越薄,则金属层的面积越大,从而使电容的电容值更大,进而提高了电容的电极特性。In the present embodiment, both the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 are prepared by a physical vapor deposition (PVD) process. In the prior art, a metal layer is usually prepared by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process, and the present invention can greatly reduce the resistivity of the metal layer and increase the density of the metal layer by preparing a metal layer by using a PVD process. And surface flatness, for example, the resistivity of the Al layer prepared by the PVD process is nearly 100 times lower than that of the W layer prepared by the CVD process, and the thickness of the Al layer on the inner sidewall of the trench 201 is compared to W The layer is much thinned. When the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 is constant, the thinner the thickness of the metal layer is, the larger the area of the metal layer is, so that the capacitance value of the capacitor is larger, thereby improving the electrode characteristics of the capacitor.
可选的,上电极21和下电极22的厚度的取值范围均为50-500nm,优选为100-300nm。在该厚度范围内,既可保证电容的质量,又可增加电容的电 容值。Optionally, the thickness of the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 ranges from 50 to 500 nm, preferably from 100 to 300 nm. Within this thickness range, both the quality of the capacitor and the capacitance of the capacitor can be increased.
可选的,电介质层23包括Al2O3层、TiO2层或者HfO4层等的介电常数较大的膜层。Optionally, the dielectric layer 23 includes a film layer having a large dielectric constant such as an Al 2 O 3 layer, a TiO 2 layer, or an HfO 4 layer.
可选的,电介质层23的厚度的取值范围为5-15nm。在实际应用中,电介质层23的厚度可以参考其击穿电压进行调整。例如:若电容的击穿电压为2.5V,则可以将电介质层23的厚度控制在9-10nm之间。Optionally, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 ranges from 5 to 15 nm. In practical applications, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 can be adjusted with reference to its breakdown voltage. For example, if the breakdown voltage of the capacitor is 2.5V, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 can be controlled to be between 9-10 nm.

The semiconductor device includes: a physical vapor deposition (PVD) chamber, an atomic layer deposition (Atomic Layer Deposition, hereinafter referred to as ALD) chamber, and a transmission platform. Wherein, the PVD chamber is used to prepare the upper and lower electrodes of the capacitor; the ALD chamber is used to prepare a dielectric layer of the capacitor; and the transfer platform is respectively connected to the PVD chamber and the ALD chamber for transporting the substrate. Specifically, the transport platform mainly includes a transfer chamber and a loading/unloading station, wherein the transfer chamber is a vacuum chamber, and a robot is disposed in the transfer chamber.

To improve the performance of the capacitor.
请一并参阅图1至图4,本发明第三实施例提供的电容制作方法,其采用本发明第二实施例提供的半导体设备制作图1示出的电容。具体地,电容制作方法包括:Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, a capacitor manufacturing method according to a third embodiment of the present invention is used to fabricate the capacitor shown in FIG. 1 by using the semiconductor device provided by the second embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, the capacitor manufacturing method includes:
步骤S1,进行去气工艺,即,对基底20的待沉积表面进行去气处理。In step S1, a degassing process is performed, that is, the surface to be deposited of the substrate 20 is subjected to a degassing treatment.
在步骤S1中,首先将基底20传输至去气腔室35内进行去气处理,以去除基底20表面上的杂质。在进行去气工艺的过程中,将去气腔室35的压力控制在0-10Torr,温度控制在0-400℃。优选的,去气腔室35的压力控制在1-7Torr,温度控制在300-400℃。In step S1, the substrate 20 is first transferred to the degassing chamber 35 for degassing treatment to remove impurities on the surface of the substrate 20. During the degassing process, the pressure of the degassing chamber 35 is controlled to be 0-10 Torr, and the temperature is controlled at 0 to 400 °C. Preferably, the pressure of the degassing chamber 35 is controlled at 1-7 Torr and the temperature is controlled at 300-400 °C.
基底20可以采用SiO2或其它材质制作。并且,该基底20具有沟槽201。上述基底20的待沉积表面既包括基底20的上述沟槽201所在的表面,又包 括可暴露于空气的槽201的内表面。The substrate 20 can be made of SiO2 or other materials. Also, the substrate 20 has a trench 201. The surface to be deposited of the substrate 20 described above includes both the surface of the substrate 20 on which the trench 201 is located, and the inner surface of the trench 201 which is exposed to air.
步骤S2,通过物理气相沉积工艺在基底20的待沉积表面形成下电极22。In step S2, the lower electrode 22 is formed on the surface to be deposited of the substrate 20 by a physical vapor deposition process.
步骤S3,通过原子层沉积工艺在下电极22的背离基底20的表面形成电介质层23。In step S3, a dielectric layer 23 is formed on the surface of the lower electrode 22 facing away from the substrate 20 by an atomic layer deposition process.
步骤S4,通过物理气相沉积工艺在电介质层23的背离下电极22的表面形成上电极21。In step S4, the upper electrode 21 is formed on the surface of the dielectric layer 23 facing away from the lower electrode 22 by a physical vapor deposition process.
在上述步骤S2至步骤S4中,上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23覆盖基底20的待沉积表面,且使沟槽201被完全填充。In the above steps S2 to S4, the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23 cover the surface to be deposited of the substrate 20, and the trench 201 is completely filled.
在上述步骤S2和步骤S4中,上电极21和下电极22均包括一层金属层,且上电极21的金属层和下电极22的金属层的材质相同。这样,电容是由金属层/电介质层/金属层组成的三层结构,类似于“三明治”结构,该结构简单,从而可以简化制作工艺流程,而且可以减少基片在传输过程中暴露在空气中的次数,从而可以在一定程度上减少薄膜表面的污染。In the above steps S2 and S4, the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 each include a metal layer, and the metal layers of the upper electrode 21 and the metal layer of the lower electrode 22 are made of the same material. Thus, the capacitor is a three-layer structure composed of a metal layer/dielectric layer/metal layer, similar to a “sandwich” structure, which is simple in structure, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process and reducing the exposure of the substrate to the air during transport. The number of times can thus reduce the contamination of the film surface to some extent.
可选的,上述金属层的材质包括Al、Au、Ti或者Cu等等。Optionally, the material of the metal layer includes Al, Au, Ti, Cu, or the like.
可选的,电介质层23包括Al2O3层、TiO2层或者HfO4层等的介电常数较大的膜层。Optionally, the dielectric layer 23 includes a film layer having a large dielectric constant such as an Al 2 O 3 layer, a TiO 2 layer, or an HfO 4 layer.
在本实施例中,用于制备上电极21和下电极22的PVD腔室31内的顶部设置有靶材41,且在该靶材41的下方设置有用于承载被加工工件的基座42。并且,靶基距大于90mm,优选为200-410mm。在进行PVD工艺的过程中,向PVD腔室31内通入工艺气体,且腔室压力为0-5mTorr,优选为0-2mTorr。施加在靶材41上的溅射功率为0-40kW,优选为30-38kW。施加在基座上的偏压功率为0-2000W,优选为400-1000W。In the present embodiment, the top portion in the PVD chamber 31 for preparing the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 is provided with a target 41, and a susceptor 42 for carrying a workpiece to be processed is disposed below the target 41. Also, the target base distance is greater than 90 mm, preferably 200-410 mm. During the PVD process, a process gas is introduced into the PVD chamber 31, and the chamber pressure is 0-5 mTorr, preferably 0-2 mTorr. The sputtering power applied to the target 41 is 0-40 kW, preferably 30-38 kW. The bias power applied to the susceptor is 0-2000 W, preferably 400-1000 W.
可选的,上电极21和下电极22的厚度的取值范围均为50-500nm,优选为100-300nm。在该厚度范围内,既可保证电容的质量,又可增加电容的电容值。Optionally, the thickness of the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 ranges from 50 to 500 nm, preferably from 100 to 300 nm. Within this thickness range, both the quality of the capacitor and the capacitance of the capacitor can be increased.
可选的,电介质层23的厚度的取值范围为5-15nm。在实际应用中,电介质层23的厚度可以参考其击穿电压进行调整。例如:若电容的击穿电压为2.5V,则可以将电介质层23的厚度控制在9-10nm之间。Optionally, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 ranges from 5 to 15 nm. In practical applications, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 can be adjusted with reference to its breakdown voltage. For example, if the breakdown voltage of the capacitor is 2.5V, the thickness of the dielectric layer 23 can be controlled to be between 9-10 nm.
在步骤S3中,在实施原子层沉积工艺时,将温度控制在150-400℃,优为300-400℃,以能够在制备电介质层23的同时对下电极22进行退火处理,从而优化下电极22的结晶,提高下电极22的性能。In step S3, when the atomic layer deposition process is performed, the temperature is controlled at 150-400 ° C, preferably 300-400 ° C, to be able to anneal the lower electrode 22 while preparing the dielectric layer 23, thereby optimizing the lower electrode. The crystallization of 22 improves the performance of the lower electrode 22.
步骤S5,对上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23进行退火处理。In step S5, the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23 are annealed.
由于在制备上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23的过程中容易产生应力,因此,制备完成之后,需要对上电极21、下电极22和电介质层23进行退火处理。退火处理可以在去气腔室35内进行,或者也可以在其他具有退火功能的腔室内进行。在进行退火处理时,将腔室压力控制在0-10Torr,优选为1-7Torr。温度控制在0-400℃,优选为300-400℃。Since stress is easily generated in the process of preparing the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23, after the preparation is completed, the upper electrode 21, the lower electrode 22, and the dielectric layer 23 need to be annealed. The annealing treatment may be performed in the degassing chamber 35, or may be performed in other chambers having an annealing function. When the annealing treatment is performed, the chamber pressure is controlled to be 0 to 10 Torr, preferably 1 to 7 Torr. The temperature is controlled at 0 to 400 ° C, preferably 300 to 400 ° C.
在本实施例中,若沟槽201的深宽比为4∶1,在制作上电极21和下电极22时,优选靶基距为290mm,腔室压力为0.1-1mTorr,施加在靶材41上的溅射功率为30-35kW,施加在基座42上的偏压功率为500-800W,制备的上电极21和下电极22的厚度均为100-200nm。In the present embodiment, if the aspect ratio of the trench 201 is 4:1, when the upper electrode 21 and the lower electrode 22 are formed, the target base distance is preferably 290 mm, and the chamber pressure is 0.1-1 mTorr, which is applied to the target 41. The sputtering power was 30-35 kW, the bias power applied to the susceptor 42 was 500-800 W, and the thicknesses of the prepared upper electrode 21 and lower electrode 22 were both 100-200 nm.
