在形成基底10之后,本实施例提供的半导体结构制作方法还包括:
S102:在基底上形成膜层结构,膜层结构包括介质层。
继续参照图2,示例性的,制作膜层结构20的具体步骤可以包括:在基底10上依次堆叠形成介质层202和顶部膜层201。其中,顶部膜层201位于介质层202背离基底10的一侧,顶部膜层201的材质可以包括氮化钛等。
进一步地,介质层202可以包括在基底10上依次堆叠形成的第一介质层203、中间膜层204以及第二介质层205。也就是说,中间膜层204位于第一介质层203和第二介质层205之间,并且第一介质层203靠近基底10设置,第二介质层205靠近顶部膜层201设置。
其中,第一介质层203的材质可以包括氧化硅等氧化物,中间膜层204的材质可以包括氮化钛等,第二介质层205的材质也可以包括氧化硅等氧化物。
在一些实施例中,第一介质层203的底面与基底10接合,第一介质层203的顶面与中间膜层204的底面接合,中间膜层204的顶面与第二介质层205的底面接合,第二介质层205的顶面与顶部膜层201接合;使得第一介质层203、中间膜层204、第二介质层205以及顶部膜层201构成膜层结构20。
在上述实现方式中,中间膜层204和顶部膜层201的材质可以相同,以减少构成膜层结构20的材料种类,以便于膜层结构20的制作。示例性的,中间膜层204和顶部膜层201的可以均为由氮化钛构成的氮化钛层。
进一步地,第一介质层203和第二介质层205的材质可以相同,以进一步减少构成膜层结构20的材料种类,以便于膜层结构20的制作。示例性的,第一介质层203和第二介质层205可以均由氧化物构成的氧化物层,如氧化硅等。
本实施例提供的半导体结构制作方法在形成膜层结构20之后还包括:
S103:在膜层结构上形成图形转移层,图形转移层上定义多个孔洞。
请参照图3,本实施例中,图形转移层上定义的多个孔洞301,可以通过蚀刻的方式形成;示例性的,可以先在图形转移层上形成光刻层,对光刻层进行掩膜、曝光等工艺,以在光刻层上形成蚀刻图形;之后以光刻层为掩膜蚀刻图形转移层,以在图形转移层上形成孔洞301。当然,本实施例中的孔洞301还可以通过其他的方式形成,本实施例并不依次为限。
在形成图形转移层之后,本实施提供的半导体结构制作方法还包括:
S104:对图形转移层背离基底的顶面进行平坦化处理。
如图5所示,平坦化处理可以使图形转移层背离基底10的顶面变得平坦,以利于 后续工艺的进行。示例性的,可以通过化学机械抛光(CMP)的方法对图形转移层背离基底10的顶面进行处理,以使得图形转移层的顶面较为平坦。当然本实施例中对图形转移层进行平坦化处理并不限于化学机械抛光,还可以采用其他的方式对图形转移层进行平坦化处理。
在对图形转移层进行平坦化处理之后,本实施例提供的半导体结构制作方法还包括:
S105:通过孔洞蚀刻膜层结构,以在膜层结构中形成电容孔洞206。
请参照图6,其中,沿孔洞301蚀刻膜层结构20,以形成电容孔洞206,电容孔洞206的底部向基底10延伸,电容孔洞206的底部可以与基底10接触。进一步地,在形成基底10时,可以在基底10上形成多个导通区101,在形成电容孔洞206之后,每一电容孔洞206的底部可以延伸至基底10内并与一个导通区101结合。在后续过程中,在电容孔洞206内形成电容极板,电容极板可以与导通区101连接,以形成动态随机存储器的电容结构,动态随机存储器的晶体管结构可以通过导通区101与电容结构中对应的电容极板连接,以实现电容结构中数据的读取或者向电容结构中写入数据。
本实施例中,可以采用干法蚀刻的方式通过孔洞301蚀刻膜层结构20,以在膜层结构20中形成电容孔洞206。通过干法蚀刻的方式形成电容孔洞206,简化了电容孔洞206的制作难度。如图3-图6所示,在形成第一图形转移层30时,第一图形转移层30的顶面容易形成凸起303和凹陷302,使得第一图形转移层30的顶面较为粗糙;在进行蚀刻之前,对图形转移层的顶面进行平坦化处理,可以使得图形转移层的顶面较为平坦;与粗糙的顶面相比,在进行干法蚀刻的过程中,可以避免离子在图形转移层顶面发生散射,进而避免形成的电容孔洞206侧壁出现鼓包、或者电容孔倾斜等问题,提高了电容孔洞206的尺寸精度,提高了电容结构的性能。另外,与粗糙的图形转移层顶面相比,在进行蚀刻时还可以避免离子散射引起的电容孔洞206边缘的膜层结构20顶面损伤,进而使得膜层结构20背离基底10的顶面较为平坦,以进一步提高电容结构的性能。
本实施提供的半导体结构制作方法,在基底10上形成膜层结构20,膜层结构20包括介质层202,在膜层结构20上形成图形转移层,图形转移层上定义多个孔洞301,并对图形转移层进行平坦化处理;之后,通过孔洞301蚀刻膜层结构20,以在膜层结构20中形成电容孔洞206;在形成电容孔洞206之前,对图形转移层的顶面进行了平坦化处理,在进行蚀刻的过程中,平坦的图形转移层顶面可以避免发生离子散射,进而避免形成的电容孔洞206侧壁出现鼓包、或者电容孔洞206倾斜,提高了电容孔洞206的尺寸精度,提高了电容结构的性能。
继续参照图2-图4,本实施例提供的半导体结构制作方法,在膜层结构20上形成图形转移层,图形转移层上定义多个孔洞301的具体步骤包括:
在膜层结构20上依次堆叠形成第一图形转移层30和第二图形转移层40,第二掩膜层上具有孔型图案401;之后将孔型图案401转移至第一图形转移层30上,以形成孔洞301。
其中,第一图形转移层30可以为由多晶硅构成的多晶硅层,第二图形转移层40也可为由氧化物构成的氧化物层,本实施例对第一图形转移层30和第二图形转移层 40的材质不做限制。
本实施例中,在膜层结构20上依次堆叠形成第一图形转移层30和第二图形转移层40,第二图形转移层40上具有孔型图案401包括:蚀刻第二图形转移层40,以形成预设孔,预设孔延伸至第一图形转移层30内。预设孔延伸至第一图形转移层30内,可以降低蚀刻第二图形转移层40的深度要求,进而简化半导体结构的制作难度。
示例性的,在形成第二图形转移层40之后,可以在第二图形转移层40上形成第一光刻层,之后对第一光刻层进行掩膜、曝光等工艺,以在第一光刻层上形成第一蚀刻图案,之后以第一光刻层为掩膜蚀刻第二图形转移层40,以形成由预设孔构成的孔型图案401。
进一步地,将孔型图案401转移至第一图形转移层30的具体步骤可以包括,在第二图形转移层40上形成孔型图案401后,可以在第二图形转移层40上形成第二光刻层,之后对第二光刻层进行掩膜、曝光等工艺,以在第二光刻层上形成第二蚀刻图案,第二蚀刻图案在基底10上的投影可以与第一蚀刻图案在基底10上的投影完全重合,之后以第二光刻层为掩膜向基底10蚀刻,以形成孔洞301;由于第二蚀刻图案在基底10上的投影与第一蚀刻图案在基底10上的投影完全重合,使得形成的孔洞301与孔型图案401正对,进而将孔型图案401转移至第一图形转移层30上。当然在其他的实现方式中,在形成第二图形转移层40上形成孔型图案401之后,可以以第二图形转移层40为掩膜向基底10蚀刻第一图形转移层30,也可以将孔型图案401转移至第一图形转移层30上,进而形成孔洞301。
本实施例中,将孔型图案401转移至第一图形转移层30上,以形成孔洞301还包括:孔洞301延伸至膜层结构20内。如此设置,可以降低蚀刻第一图形转移层30的深度要求,进而简化半导体结构的制作难度。
请照图4和图5,在上述实现方式中,对图形转移层背离基底10的顶面进行平坦化处理的具体步骤包括:去除第二图形转移层40,并对第一图形转移层30背离基底10的顶面进行平坦化处理。
具体地,可以通过化学机械抛光(CMP)的方式去除第二图形转移层40,并对第一图形转移层30背离基底10的顶面进行平坦化处理,通过化学机械抛光的方式进行平坦化处理,制作简单并且处理后第一图形转移层30的顶面较为平坦。
