Further, by making the cap film about several atomic layers thick, the effect of suppressing oxidation can be further obtained. In a layer having a thickness of one atomic layer, pinholes and the like may be formed, and the first metal-containing film may be oxidized through the pinholes. Therefore, the cap film is preferably a two-atomic layer or more and a few-atomic layer or less. By forming two or more atomic layers, the formation of pinholes can be suppressed.
- pinholes may occur due to steric hindrance caused by the molecular size of the raw material gas used when forming the cap film, the reaction characteristics of the raw material gas, and the reaction characteristics of the reaction gas.

を有する。
先ず、第1プロセスユニットとしての処理炉202a内に、ウエハ200を搬入し、ウエハ200上に第1の金属元素を含有する第1の金属含有膜と、第13族元素又は第14族元素を含有するキャップ膜を形成する。
複数枚のウエハ200がボート217に装填(ウエハチャージ)されると、図1に示されているように、複数枚のウエハ200を支持したボート217は、ボートエレベータ115によって持ち上げられて処理室201a内に搬入(ボートロード)される。この状態で、シールキャップ219はOリング220bを介してアウタチューブ203の下端開口を閉塞した状態となる。
処理室201a内、すなわち、ウエハ200が存在する空間が所望の圧力(真空度)となるように真空ポンプ246によって真空排気される。この際、処理室201a内の圧力は、圧力センサ245で測定され、この測定された圧力情報に基づき、APCバルブ243がフィードバック制御される(圧力調整)。また、処理室201a内が所望の温度となるようにヒータ207によって加熱される。この際、処理室201a内が所望の温度分布となるように、温度センサ263が検出した温度情報に基づきヒータ207への通電量がフィードバック制御される(温度調整)。また、回転機構267によるウエハ200の回転を開始する。処理室201a内の排気、ウエハ200の加熱および回転は、いずれも、少なくともウエハ200に対する処理が完了するまでの間は継続して行われる。
続いて、ウエハ200上に、第1の金属含有膜を形成するステップを実行する。
バルブ314を開き、ガス供給管310内に第1の金属含有ガスを流す。第1の金属含有ガスは、MFC312により流量調整され、ノズル410のガス供給孔410aから処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ514を開き、ガス供給管510内にN2ガス等の不活性ガスを流す。ガス供給管510内を流れた不活性ガスは、MFC512により流量調整され、第1の金属含有ガスと一緒に処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。なお、このとき、ノズル420,430内への第1の金属含有ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ524,534を開き、ガス供給管520,530内に不活性ガスを流す。不活性ガスは、ガス供給管320,330、ノズル420,430を介して処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。
第1の金属含有ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ314を閉じ、第1の金属含有ガスの供給を停止する。このとき、排気管231のAPCバルブ243は開いたままとして、真空ポンプ246により処理室201a内を真空排気し、処理室201a内に残留する未反応もしくは第1の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第1の金属含有ガスを処理室201a内から排除する。このときバルブ514,524,534は開いたままとして、不活性ガスの処理室201a内への供給を維持する。不活性ガスはパージガスとして作用し、処理室201a内に残留する未反応もしくは第1の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第1の金属含有ガスを処理室201a内から排除する効果を高めることができる。
パージを開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ324を開き、ガス供給管320内に第3の反応ガスを流す。第3の反応ガスは、MFC322により流量調整され、ノズル420のガス供給孔420aから処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ524を開き、ガス供給管520内に不活性ガスを流す。また、ノズル410,430内への第3の反応ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ514,534を開き、ガス供給管510,530内に不活性ガスを流す。
第3の反応ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ324を閉じ、第3の反応ガスの供給を停止する。そして、ステップS11と同様の処理手順により、処理室201a内に残留する未反応もしくは第1の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第3の反応ガスを処理室201a内から排除する。
上記したステップS10~ステップS13を順に行うサイクルを1回以上(所定回数(p回))行うことにより、図8(A)に示すように、ウエハ200上に、所定の厚さの第1の金属元素を含有する第1の金属含有膜を形成する。上述のサイクルは、繰り返し複数回実行するのが好ましい。ここでは、ウエハ200上に、第1の金属含有膜として、例えばTiN膜が形成される。
続いて、表面に第1の金属含有膜が形成されたウエハ200に対して、キャップ膜を形成するステップを実行する。キャップ膜は、第13族元素又は第14族元素を含有する、第13族元素又は第14族元素含有膜であり、上述した第1の金属含有膜の最表面の酸化を防止する酸化防止膜として機能する。
バルブ334を開き、ガス供給管330内に第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスを流す。第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスは、MFC332により流量調整され、ノズル430のガス供給孔430aから処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ534を開き、ガス供給管530内に不活性ガスを流す。また、ノズル410,420内への第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ514,524を開き、ガス供給管510,520内に不活性ガスを流す。
第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ334を閉じ、第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスの供給を停止する。そして、ステップS11と同様の処理手順により、処理室201a内に残留する未反応もしくはキャップ膜形成に寄与した後の第13族元素又は第14族元素含有ガスを処理室201a内から排除する。
パージを開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ324を開き、ガス供給管320内に第3の反応ガスを流す。第3の反応ガスは、MFC322により流量調整され、ノズル420のガス供給孔420aから処理室201a内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ524を開き、ガス供給管520内に不活性ガスを流す。また、ノズル410,430内への第3の反応ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ514,534を開き、ガス供給管510,530内に不活性ガスを流す。
第3の反応ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ324を閉じ、第3の反応ガスの供給を停止する。そして、ステップS11と同様の処理手順により、処理室201a内に残留する未反応もしくはキャップ膜形成に寄与した後の第3の反応ガスを処理室201a内から排除する。
上記したステップS20~ステップS23を順に行うサイクルを1回以上(所定回数(n回))繰り返し行うことにより、図8(B)に示すように、表面に第1の金属含有膜が形成されたウエハ200上に、所定の厚さのキャップ膜を形成する。上述のサイクルは、複数回実行するのが好ましく、サイクリック供給するのが好ましい。ここで形成されるキャップ膜の厚さは、0.2~3nmが好ましい。キャップ膜の厚さを3nmよりも厚くすると、後述する第2の金属含有膜形成工程を行っても、キャップ膜が除去されずに残ってしまう場合がある。また、0.2nmよりも薄くすると、下地の第1の金属含有膜が酸化される場合がある。即ち、第2の金属含有膜形成工程の際に、酸化した第1の金属含有膜がエッチングされ、第1の金属含有膜の特性低下が発生する。ここで、第1の金属含有膜の特性低下とは、第1の金属含有膜が、バリア膜の場合、バリア性能が低下する。それ故、キャップ膜は、第1の金属含有膜の酸化抑制可能な0.2nm以上形成することが好ましい。キャップ膜の膜厚は、厚くすることにより、第1の金属含有膜の酸化抑制効果は増大するが、第2の金属含有膜の形成時に、キャップ膜が除去されない場合がある。したがって、本工程において、表面に第1の金属含有膜が形成されたウエハ200上に、0.2~3nm、好ましくは0.2~2nmの厚さのキャップ膜を形成する。2nm以下とすることにより、第2の金属含有膜形成工程の間に、キャップ膜を除去することが可能となる。ここでは、キャップ膜として、例えば第14族元素であるSi含有膜であるシリコン窒化(SiN)膜が形成される。ここで、0.2nmは、キャップ膜がSiNで構成されている場合の1原子層分の厚さである。キャップ膜の種類により1原子層の厚さが変わるため、キャップ膜の種類により、膜厚(層数)を変更しても良い。1原子層の厚さの膜を形成することにより、第1の金属含有膜の酸化抑制の効果が得られる。1原子層未満の場合、ホールが形成されてしまい、第1の金属含有膜の酸化抑制の効果が不十分となる。また、キャップ膜を数原子層程度の厚さとすることで、酸化抑制の効果を更に得ることができる。なお、1原子層の厚さの層では、ピンホール等が形成され、ピンホールを通して、第1の金属含有膜が酸化してしまうことが有る。それ故、キャップ膜は、2原子層以上、数原子層以下とすることが好ましい。2原子層以上形成することにより、ピンホールの形成を抑制することができる。なお、ピンホールは、キャップ膜の形成の際に用いる原料ガスの分子サイズに起因する立体障害や、原料ガスの反応特性、反応ガスの反応特性により生じ得る。また、キャップ膜の厚さを、数原子層とすることで、第2の金属含有膜の形成工程の間に、第1の金属含有膜の上に形成されたキャップ膜の少なくとも一部を除去しつつ第2の金属含有膜を形成することができる。ここで、キャップ膜が、SiNの場合には、2原子層~数原子層の厚さは、0.4~1.8nmの厚さとなる。1.8nm以下とすることで、第2の金属含有膜形成工程の初期段階で、キャップ膜を除去することが可能となり、第2の金属含有膜とキャップ膜とが混在する層を低減することができる。第2の金属含有膜とキャップ膜とが混在する層では、第2の金属含有膜の電気的特性が低下する場合がある。
ガス供給管510,520,530から不活性ガスを処理室201a内へ供給し、排気管231から排気する。不活性ガスはパージガスとして作用し、これにより処理室201a内が不活性ガスでパージされ、処理室201a内に残留するガスや副生成物が処理室201a内から除去される(アフターパージ)。その後、処理室201a内の雰囲気が不活性ガスに置換され(不活性ガス置換)、処理室201a内の圧力が常圧に復帰される(大気圧復帰)。
その後、ボートエレベータ115によりシールキャップ219が下降されて、アウタチューブ203の下端が開口される。そして、ウエハ200上に第1の金属含有膜と第1の金属含有膜の上にキャップ膜が形成された処理済のウエハ200がボート217に支持された状態でアウタチューブ203の下端からアウタチューブ203の外部に搬出(ボートアンロード)される。その後、処理済のウエハ200は、ボート217より取り出される(ウエハディスチャージ)。
次に、第2プロセスユニットとしての処理炉202b内に、処理炉202a内で処理済みのウエハ200を搬入する。すなわち、第1の金属含有膜と、第1の金属含有膜上に形成されたキャップ膜と、を有するウエハ200を処理炉202b内に準備する。そして、処理室201b内が所望の圧力、所望の温度分布に圧力調整および温度調整がなされる。なお、本工程は、上述した処理炉202aにおける工程とガス供給工程のみ異なる。したがって、上述した処理炉202aにおける工程と異なる部分のみ以下に説明し、同じ部分は説明を省略する。
続いて、表面にキャップ膜が形成されたウエハ200に対して、第1の金属含有膜の上に形成されたキャップ膜の少なくとも一部を除去しつつ第2の金属元素を含有する第2の金属含有膜を形成するステップを実行する。
バルブ344を開き、ガス供給管340内に第2の金属含有ガスを流す。第2の金属含有ガスは、MFC342により流量調整され、ノズル440のガス供給孔440aから処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ544を開き、ガス供給管540内にN2ガス等の不活性ガスを流す。ガス供給管540内を流れた不活性ガスは、MFC542により流量調整され、第2の金属含有ガスと一緒に処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。なお、このとき、ノズル450内への第2の金属含有ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ554を開き、ガス供給管550内に不活性ガスを流す。不活性ガスは、ガス供給管350、ノズル450を介して処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。
第2の金属含有ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ344を閉じ、第2の金属含有ガスの供給を停止する。このとき、排気管231のAPCバルブ243は開いたままとして、真空ポンプ246により処理室201b内を真空排気し、処理室201b内に残留する未反応もしくはキャップ膜の除去と第2の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第2の金属含有ガスを処理室201b内から排除する。このときバルブ544,554は開いたままとして、不活性ガスの処理室201b内への供給を維持する。不活性ガスはパージガスとして作用し、処理室201b内に残留する未反応もしくはキャップ膜の除去と第2の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第2の金属含有ガスを処理室201b内から排除する効果を高めることができる。
パージを開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ354を開き、ガス供給管350内に第1の反応ガスを流す。第1の反応ガスは、MFC352により流量調整され、ノズル450のガス供給孔450aから処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。このとき同時にバルブ554を開き、ガス供給管550内に不活性ガスを流す。ガス供給管550内を流れた不活性ガスは、MFC552により流量調整され、第1の反応ガスと一緒に処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。なお、このとき、ノズル440内への第1の反応ガスの侵入を防止するために、バルブ544を開き、ガス供給管540内に不活性ガスを流す。不活性ガスは、ガス供給管340、ノズル440を介して処理室201b内に供給され、排気管231から排気される。
第1の反応ガスの供給を開始してから所定時間経過後にバルブ354を閉じ、第1の反応ガスの供給を停止する。そして、ステップS11と同様の処理手順により、処理室201b内に残留する未反応もしくはキャップ膜の除去と第2の金属含有膜形成に寄与した後の第1の反応ガスを処理室201内から排除する。
上記したステップS30~ステップS33を順に行うサイクルを1回以上(所定回数(m回))繰り返し行うことにより、ウエハ200上に形成されたキャップ膜を昇華させつつ、ウエハ200上に、所定の厚さの第2の金属元素を含有する第2の金属含有膜を形成することが可能である。すなわち、図8(C)に示すように、第1の金属含有膜の上に形成されたキャップ膜の少なくとも一部を除去しつつ、ウエハ200上に、所定の厚さの第2の金属含有膜を形成することが可能である。上述のサイクルは、複数回実行するのが好ましく、第2の金属含有膜形成工程におけるサイクル数(m回)を、上述したキャップ膜形成工程におけるサイクル数(n回)よりも多くする。すなわち、m>n(m、nは正の整数)である。これにより、ウエハ200上に形成されたキャップ膜を昇華させつつ、ウエハ200上に、所定の厚さの第2の金属含有膜を形成することが可能である。
ガス供給管540,550のそれぞれから不活性ガスを処理室201b内へ供給し、排気管231から排気する。不活性ガスはパージガスとして作用し、これにより処理室201b内が不活性ガスでパージされ、処理室201b内に残留するガスや副生成物が処理室201b内から除去される(アフターパージ)。その後、処理室201b内の雰囲気が不活性ガスに置換され(不活性ガス置換)、処理室201b内の圧力が常圧に復帰される(大気圧復帰)。
その後、ボートエレベータ115によりシールキャップ219が下降されて、アウタチューブ203の下端が開口される。そして、処理済ウエハ200がボート217に支持された状態でアウタチューブ203の下端からアウタチューブ203の外部に搬出(ボートアンロード)される。その後、処理済のウエハ200は、ボート217より取り出される(ウエハディスチャージ)。
本実施形態によれば、以下に示す1つまたは複数の効果を得ることができる。
(a)膜特性を向上させることができる。
(b)特にバリア膜(第1の金属含有膜)の表面の酸化を抑制することができる。
(c)そして、バリア膜がエッチングされるのを抑制し、バリア膜のバリア特性を向上させることができる。
(d)バリア膜上に形成される金属含有膜(第2の金属含有膜)の抵抗率を低くすることができる。
(e)バリア膜上に形成される金属含有膜の特性を向上させることができる。
以上、本開示の実施形態を具体的に説明した。しかしながら、本開示は上述の実施形態に限定されるものではなく、その要旨を逸脱しない範囲で種々変更可能である。
図9は、本開示の一実施形態における基板処理シーケンスの変形例を示す。本変形例は、上述した実施形態と第2の金属含有膜形成工程が異なる。すなわち、第2の金属含有膜形成工程において、第2の金属含有ガス供給と、第1の反応ガス供給と、を行って、キャップ膜の少なくとも一部を除去しつつ、ウエハ200上に、所定の厚さの第2の金属含有膜を形成した後に、第2の金属含有ガス供給と、第1の反応ガスとは異なる第2の反応ガスを供給する第2の反応ガス供給と、を行うことにより、第2の金属含有膜上に第2の金属元素を含有する別の膜を形成する。ここで、第2の金属含有膜上に形成される第2の金属元素を含有する別の膜は、第2の金属含有膜に含まれる第2の金属元素を含み、第2の金属含有膜と比較して抵抗率の低い膜である。本変形例により、キャップ膜の少なくとも一部を除去しつつ、抵抗率の低い第2の金属含有膜を形成することができる。
