Description

薄膜沉积装置及薄膜沉积方法及薄膜沉积设备 技术领域
本发明涉及半导体制造技术领域,尤其涉及一种薄膜沉积装置、薄膜沉积方法及薄膜沉积设备。
背景技术
在等离子体增强化学气相沉积(PECVD)的真空处理腔室中,不同材料的层堆栈结构沉积至基板上。其中,将基板放到真空处理腔室中,首先将第一处理气体通入,用于在基板上形成第一层的第一材料;然后进行等离子体净化及气体净化,继而,再将第二处理气体通入,用于在基板上形成第二层的第二材料。重复上述的等离子体净化及气体净化,并且将第一材料和第二材料堆叠沉积在基板上,形成层堆栈结构的薄膜。其中,三维(3D)存储可由沉积在基板上的交替薄膜材料的层堆栈结构制成。
目前,3D储存使用氧化物与氮化物膜的交替层通过相关工艺实现在三维结构中达到储存数据的目的。这些堆栈结构可包括多层第一材料和第二材料,例如超过300层甚至500层的持续堆栈。
具体地,有些情况下3D储存堆栈的薄膜材料中的第一材料和第二材料堆栈结构可以是氧化物和硅、硅和掺杂硅、或者硅和氮化物。相应地,这些材料组合的3D储存堆栈的薄膜材料大多可应用于BiCS(Bit-Cost Scalable)、TCAT(万亿比特单元阵列晶体管(Terabit Cell Array Transistor))或者其它3D存储结构。另外,第一材料和第二材料堆栈结构也可以是其它材料组合物,且第一材料与第二材料层沉积至基板上的顺序也可相反。
然而,目前现有的PECVD设备存在以下问题:
1.随着基板表面层堆栈结构层数的升高,薄膜的厚度相应增加,直接导致薄膜的层与层之间的均匀性以及堆栈后总的薄膜的均匀性变差,进而导致在后续的刻蚀过程中无法得到垂直结构,从而限制了在薄膜堆栈过程中持续增加薄膜的层数。
目前的现有设备条件下,当沉积薄膜超过200层后薄膜的均匀性和质量发生降级,在不同种类薄膜的持续堆栈过程中会持续放大固定位置的偏差,从而导致基 板薄膜的均匀性偏离可控范围,而使后续的刻蚀工艺无法实现通孔刻蚀的精准度,导致在刻蚀工艺过程中发生刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向,从而进一步导致半导体器件的失效。
2.气体喷淋头的长期使用产生的形变或者外界气泵对废气的抽取,导致气体供应组件供给的工艺气体分布不均,从而导致在薄膜沉积的过程中存在薄膜厚度的偏差,进而导致在刻蚀工艺过程中发生刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向,从而进一步导致半导体器件的失效。
3.传统PECVD方式沉积薄膜时候,需要固定加热托盘,以保证加热托盘的平整度,然而固定加热托盘的同时,基板的温度分布会形成固定的图形,从而导致基板出现受热不均匀的问题,进而导致在刻蚀工艺过程中发生刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向,进一步导致半导体器件的失效。
综上所述,有必要提出一种新的薄膜沉积装置及其方法,来解决上述问题。
发明内容

本发明的较佳实施方式
以下通过特定的具体实例说明本发明的实施方式,本领域技术人员可由本说明书所揭露的内容轻易地了解本发明的其他优点与功效。本发明还可以通过另外不同的具体实施方式加以实施或应用,本说明书中的各项细节也可以基于不同观点与应用,在没有背离本发明的精神下进行各种修饰或改变。
请参阅图1至图20G。需要说明的是,本实施例中所提供的图示仅以示意方式说明本发明的基本构想,虽图示中仅显示与本发明中有关的组件而非按照实际实施时的组件数目、形状及尺寸绘制,其实际实施时各组件的形态、数量及比例可为一种随意的改变,且其组件布局形态也可能更为复杂。
实施例一
在PECVD薄膜沉积过程中,由于加热托盘温度分布不均匀或者基板由于应力 导致基板在加热托盘上的平整度不同,从而导致薄膜沉积过程中均匀性变差。当在基板上交替沉积不同材料薄膜时,随着第一材料和第二材料交替堆栈在基板w上的层数升高,基板w上形成的层堆栈结构的薄膜的厚度增加,如图1中所示,导致了堆栈的薄膜发生一定角度Δ的倾斜。即,随着这些层堆栈结构层数的升高,恶化了堆栈后薄膜的均匀性,从而导致基板w上薄膜的均匀性偏离可控范围,而使后续的刻蚀工艺无法实现通孔刻蚀的精准度,导致在刻蚀工艺过程中发生刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向,从而进一步导致半导体器件的失效。
为了解决上述问题,本实施例1提供了一种薄膜沉积装置。具体地,如图2A和图2B所示,该薄膜沉积装置包括:处理腔室1,用于进行薄膜沉积;气体供应组件2,设置于处理腔室1的顶壁,用于向处理腔室1内部供应工艺气体;加热托盘3,设置于气体供应组件2的下方,用于承载并加热基板w;射频源5,用于提供射频功率,在处理腔室1内部形成射频电场,激发处理腔室1内部的工艺气体解离为等离子体气体,解离后的等离子体气体在基板w上进行薄膜沉积;旋转机构403,控制基板w旋转,该旋转的旋转轴AA’垂直且穿过基板w。在本实施例1中,旋转的旋转轴AA’经过基板w的中心O,使得基板w绕着旋转轴AA’转动。
旋转机构403驱动基板w转动时,停止向处理腔室1内部通入工艺气体,并向处理腔室1内部通入惰性气体或氮气,以保持处理腔室1内的压力,并保持射频源5为打开状态。因为在基板w上沉积一定层数的薄膜后,处理腔室1内部悬浮有部分杂质颗粒,此时,保持射频源5为打开状态,处理腔室1内部充满射频电场,杂质颗粒在处理腔室1内部射频电场的作用下带电,带电的杂质颗粒保持悬浮,不会掉落在基板w表面,有效防止了杂质颗粒掉落在基板w沉积的薄膜上,避免了对基板w上沉积的薄膜造成污染。
因此,本实施例1提出了在保持射频源5打开状态下,驱动基板w转动,补偿了基板w上沉积的薄膜厚度的不均匀,实现了PECVD层堆栈结构薄膜沉积的均匀性和稳定性,避免了基板w上沉积的薄膜在后续刻蚀工艺过程中刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向的现象,从而进一步保证了半导体器件性能的稳定性。
其中,如图2A和图2B所示,该薄膜沉积装置还包括:支撑件,用于支撑基板w;升降机构402,与支撑件连接,用于驱动支撑件沿竖直方向上升或下降,以托起基板w离开加热托盘3或放置基板w于加热托盘3上。
在本实施例1中,旋转机构403设置于升降机构402底端,用于驱动支撑件和升降机构402沿水平圆周方向同步旋转,以带动基板w旋转。
在本实施例1中,支撑件为可沿竖直方向和在水平圆周方向运动的顶针401,加热托盘3上开有第一通孔301,顶针401设置在第一通孔301内。如图3A和图3B所示,第一通孔301在水平面的截面为弧形或圆形,弧形或圆形的圆心M与基板w的圆心O在一条铅垂线上。
在本实施例1中,升降机构402可为气缸402,气缸402与顶针401的底部连接;旋转机构403可为马达403,马达403与气缸402的底部连接,气缸402驱动顶针401上升或下降,马达403驱动气缸402和顶针401同步旋转。
需要旋转基板w时,如图2B所示,升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向上升起并从第一通孔301中伸出,顶针401将基板w顶起,使基板w脱离加热托盘3;然后旋转机构403驱动顶针401在第一通孔301中沿弧形轨迹移动,使基板w旋转一设定角度,如图3A和图3B所示;待基板w旋转设定角度后,基板w停止旋转,升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向下移动,将基板w放置在加热托盘3上以进行后续的薄膜沉积。
顶针401可以有至少三个,相应地,第一通孔301为至少三个,且与顶针401一一对应。在本实施例1中,如图3A和图3B所示,顶针401为三个,且第一通孔301对应为三个,三个第一通孔301在水平面的截面为三个弧形。
在本实施例1中,采用至少三个顶针401将基板w托起以将基板w旋转设定角度,补偿了基板w上沉积的薄膜厚度的不均匀,实现了PECVD层堆栈结构薄膜沉积的均匀性和稳定性,避免了基板w上沉积的薄膜在后续刻蚀工艺过程中刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向的现象,从而进一步保证了半导体器件性能的稳定性。
其中,处理腔室1的侧壁上设置有门101,用于在基板w进行薄膜沉积工艺前、后,机械手进入处理腔室1内部,将基板w从加热托盘3上放置或取下。
其中,薄膜沉积结束后,(基板w旋转次数+1)*基板w每次旋转的设定角度=360°。在本实施例1中,如图8A至图8D所示,薄膜沉积结束后,基板w旋转次数为5次,且每次旋转的设定角度为60度;还可以是,基板w旋转次数为3次,且每次旋转的设定角度为90度;还可以是,基板w旋转次数为2次,且每次旋转的设定角度为120度;基板w旋转次数为1次,且每次旋转的设定角度为180度。
其中,基板w上薄膜的沉积速率与射频源5的射频功率的倍数有关;射频源5的高频频率为13.56MHz的整数倍n,且n满足:n=1,2,3,…,8;射频源5的低频频率范围为20KHz-400KHz。
然而,在基板w旋转过程中,保持射频源5为打开状态,基板w脱离加热托盘3后,基板w的背面和加热托盘3之间的间隙过大,易导致电弧放电现象的产生。因此,在本实施例1中,为了避免基板w在射频源5打开状态下脱离加热托盘3发生电弧放电现象,如图2A和图2B所示,需要调整基板w与加热托盘3的间隙小于设定值,以避免基板w在等离子体气体的氛围下,脱离加热托盘3导致电弧放电现象的产生。在本实施例1中,基板w与加热托盘3之间间隙的设定值为m,0<m≤5mm。因此,在基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙小于设定值的条件下,保持射频源5为打开状态,降低基板w发生电弧放电的风险,保证了薄膜沉积工艺的安全性和稳定性。
实施例二
本实施例2提供了一种薄膜沉积装置,与实施例1相比,区别在于:
如图2A和图2B所示,加热托盘3上设置有第二通孔302,在基板w旋转过程中,保持射频源5为打开状态,通过第二通孔302向基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙中通入非工艺气体,以降低基板w在脱离加热托盘3的情况下发生电弧放电的风险。其中,在本实施例2中,非工艺气体为惰性气体或氮气。
因此,在基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙被非工艺气体充满时,保持射频源5为打开状态,降低基板w发生电弧放电的风险,保证了薄膜沉积工艺的安全性和稳定性。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例一相同,此处不再赘述。
实施例三
本实施例3提供了一种薄膜沉积装置,与实施例1相比,区别在于:
在基板w旋转过程中,保持射频源5为打开状态,调低射频源5的射频功率小于薄膜沉积工艺时的射频源5的射频功率,以降低基板w在脱离加热托盘3的情况下发生电弧放电的风险,保证了薄膜沉积工艺的安全性和稳定性。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例一相同,此处不再赘述。
实施例四
本实施例4提供了一种薄膜沉积装置,与实施例1相比,区别在于:
在基板w旋转之前,调整射频源5为关闭状态,并对处理腔室1进行净化处理。
由于在基板w上沉积一定层数的薄膜后,处理腔室1内部会存在杂质颗粒,处理腔室1内部越脏,基板w在处理腔室1内部脱离加热托盘3时,越容易发生电弧放电现象。因此,在基板w旋转之前,较佳的,关闭射频源5,通过气体供应组件2向处理腔室1内部供应氮气,对处理腔室1进行净化处理。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例一相同,此处不再赘述。
实施例五

在本实施例5中,如图5所示,支撑环404为带有缺口a的圆形环,或支撑环404包括位于同一个圆上的多段圆弧。相应地,处理腔室1的侧壁上设置有门101,用于在基板w进行薄膜沉积工艺前、后,机械手进入处理腔室1内部,将基板w放置在支撑环404上或从支撑环404上取走基板w。
如图4A和图4B所示,需要旋转基板w时,升降机构402驱动支撑环404沿竖直方向向上升起,将基板w托起,使基板w脱离加热托盘3;然后旋转机构403驱动支撑环404旋转以带动基板w旋转一个设定角度;基板w旋转设定角度后停止旋转,升降机构402驱动支撑环404沿竖直方向向下移动,将基板w放置在加热托盘3上以进行薄膜沉积。
在本实施例5中,采用设置在基板w外周底部的支撑环404将基板w托起以调整基板w旋转设定角度,来实现基板w绕着旋转轴AA’转动,补偿了基板w上沉积的薄膜厚度的不均匀,实现了PECVD层堆栈结构薄膜沉积的均匀性和稳定 性。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例一相同,此处不再赘述。

在本实施例6中,旋转机构403设置于第二升降机构405底部,用于驱动支撑环404和第二升降机构405以基板w的中心线AA’为旋转轴同步旋转,以带动基板w旋转。
如图6A和图6B所示,加热托盘3上开有第一通孔301,顶针401设置在第一通孔301内,用于穿过第一通孔301支撑基板w。
机械手将基板w放入处理腔室1内部时,第一升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向上升起,从第一通孔301中伸出,以承载机械手放入的基板w;然后第一升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向下降落,顶针401缩回第一通孔301内,使得基板w放置在加热托盘3上,以进行后续的薄膜沉积。机械手从处理腔室1内部取走基板w时,第一升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向上升起,从第一通孔301中伸出,将基板w从加热托盘3上顶起,便于机械手取走基板w;然后第一升降机构402驱动顶针401沿竖直方向向下降落,顶针401缩回第一通孔301内。
需要旋转基板w时,第二升降机构405驱动支撑环404沿竖直方向向上升起,将基板w托起,使基板w脱离加热托盘3;然后旋转机构403驱动支撑环404旋转以带动基板w旋转设定角度;基板w旋转设定角度后停止旋转,第二升降机构405驱动支撑环404沿竖直方向向下移动,将基板w放置在加热托盘3上以进行薄 膜沉积。

实施例十二
在PECVD中,由于气体供应组件2的长期使用产生的形变,使得输送进入处理腔室1内部的工艺气体存在分布不均匀的情况,从而导致在基板的不同位置得到的气体流量不同,进而导致等离子体气体在基板上沉积的薄膜厚度存在偏差,从而导致在刻蚀工艺过程中发生刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向,最终导致半导体器件的失效。
如图12A所示,工艺气体通入气体供应组件2时,气体供应组件2的中央位置处的气体流量大于气体供应组件2外周的气体流量,从而导致薄膜沉积工艺中,基板w上沉积的薄膜的中央位置的厚度大于外周边缘的厚度,使得基板w表面堆栈的薄膜发生一定角度Δ的倾斜,导致基板w上沉积薄膜的厚度不均匀,从而导致后续刻蚀工艺过程中刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向的缺陷。
如图12B所示,处理腔室1与气泵连接,用于抽取处理腔室1沉积过程中的废气。然而,气泵对废气的抽取很容易导致气体供应组件2外周的气体流量大于气体供应组件2中央位置处的气体流量,从而导致薄膜沉积工艺中,基板w上沉积的薄膜的中央位置的厚度小于外周边缘的厚度,同样使得基板w表面堆栈的薄膜发生一定角度Δ的倾斜,导致基板w上沉积薄膜的厚度不均匀,从而导致后续刻蚀工艺过程中刻蚀通孔偏离垂直方向的缺陷。

在本实施例12中,如图13B和图13C所示,气体调节组件200的侧壁202为波纹管,可沿竖直方向向下拉伸或向上收缩,使得气体调节组件200底端的第二多孔板201呈一定弯折状或弧状,以调整第二多孔板201与第一多孔板21之间的间隙,使得气体供应组件2内部的工艺气体能够充分混合,从而改善等离子体气体分布不均匀导致基板w表面沉积薄膜不均匀的缺陷。
实施例十三

实施例十四
为了解决现有技术中基板w表面薄膜沉积不均匀的问题,请参阅图2A至图10和图15,本实施例14提供了一种薄膜沉积方法,该薄膜沉积方法是基于上述实施例1-8和实施例10-11中的薄膜沉积装置实现的。
具体地,该薄膜沉积方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S1,将基板w放置于PECVD的处理腔室1中,并对处理腔室1进行抽真空,使得待沉积薄膜的基板w处于真空环境中;
步骤S2,向处理腔室1内部通入工艺气体,并打开射频源5,将处理腔室1内部的工艺气体解离为等离子体气体,在基板w上沉积一定层数的薄膜;
步骤S3,停止向处理腔室1内部通入工艺气体,并向处理腔室1内部通入非工艺气体,例如惰性气体或氮气,以保持处理腔室1内部的压力;
步骤S4,保持射频源5为打开状态,使基板w旋转或者使加热托盘3旋转或者使基板w与加热托盘3同步旋转一设定角度;
步骤S5,向处理腔室1内部再次通入工艺气体,然后在基板w上再沉积一定层数的薄膜;
步骤S6,停止向处理腔室1内部通入工艺气体,并向处理腔室1内部通入非工艺气体,例如惰性气体或氮气,以保持处理腔室1内部的压力;
步骤S7,判断基板w上沉积薄膜的层数是否满足设定层数;若不满足,则重复上述步骤S2-S6;若满足,则执行步骤S8;
步骤S8,将基板w从PECVD的处理腔室1内部取出,完成基板w的薄膜沉积工艺。
其中,基板w旋转或者加热托盘3旋转或者基板w与加热托盘3同步旋转的旋转轴AA’垂直且穿过基板w的中心O。
基板w上沉积的薄膜包括交替沉积的第一种材料和第二种材料。在本实施例14中,第一种材料为氧化硅,第二种材料为氮化硅。
其中,该薄膜沉积方法还包括:在基板w表面上每沉积一种材料后,都需要抽走处理腔室1内的废气,再进行后续工艺步骤。
使基板w旋转或者使加热托盘3旋转或者使基板w与加热托盘3同步旋转时,停止通入工艺气体,通入惰性气体或氮气,保持处理腔室1内的压力,保持射频源5为打开状态。因为在基板w上沉积一定层数的薄膜后,处理腔室1内部悬浮有部分杂质颗粒,此时,保持射频源5为打开状态,处理腔室1内部充满射频电场,杂质颗粒在处理腔室1内部射频电场的作用下带电,带电的杂质颗粒保持悬浮,不会掉落在基板w表面,有效防止了杂质颗粒掉落在基板w沉积的薄膜上,避免了对基板w上沉积的薄膜造成污染。
薄膜沉积结束后,(基板w旋转次数+1)*基板w每次旋转的设定角度=360°。在本实施例14中,如图8A至图8D所示,薄膜沉积结束后,基板w旋转次数为5次,且每次旋转的设定角度为60度;还可以是,基板w旋转次数为3次,且每次旋转的设定角度为90度;还可以是,基板w旋转次数为2次,且每次旋转的设定角度为120度;还可以是,基板w旋转次数为1次,且每次旋转的设定角度为180度。
然而,基板w旋转或者加热托盘3旋转时,保持射频源5为打开状态,基板w脱离加热托盘3后,基板w的背面和加热托盘3之间的间隙过大,易导致电弧放电现象的产生。因此,在本实施例14中,为了避免基板w在射频源5打开状态下脱离加热托盘3发生电弧放电现象,需要调整基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙小于设定值,以避免基板w在等离子体气体的氛围下,脱离加热托盘3导致电弧放电现象的产生。在本实施例14中,基板w与加热托盘3之间间隙的设定值为m,0<m≤5mm。因此,在基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙小于设定值的条件下,保持射频源5为打开状态,降低基板w发生电弧放电的风险,保证了薄膜沉积工 艺的安全性和稳定性。
在本实施例14中,在基板w表面沉积薄膜的层数不多(例如小于150层)时,可采用驱动加热托盘3带动基板w同步旋转的方式,以避免基板w被顶起发生电弧放电。在加热托盘3存在表面不平整的情况下,可采用将基板w顶起,驱动基板w旋转或者驱动加热托盘3旋转的方式,以解决加热托盘3温度不均匀对基板w表面沉积薄膜的均匀性造成的影响。
实施例十五
本实施例15提供了一种薄膜沉积方法,与实施例14相比,区别在于:
射频源5在打开状态下,通过加热托盘3上的第二通孔302向基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙中通入非工艺气体,以降低基板w在脱离加热托盘3的情况下发生电弧放电的风险。其中,在本实施例15中,非工艺气体为惰性气体或氮气。
在基板w与加热托盘3之间的间隙被非工艺气体充满时,保持射频源5为打开状态,降低基板w发生电弧放电的风险,保证了薄膜沉积工艺的安全性和稳定性。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例十四相同,此处不再赘述。
实施例十六
本实施例16提供了一种薄膜沉积方法,与实施例14相比,区别在于:
保持射频源5为打开状态下,调低射频源5的射频功率小于薄膜沉积工艺时的射频源5的射频功率,以降低基板w在脱离加热托盘3的情况下发生电弧放电现象的风险,从而保证薄膜沉积工艺的安全性和稳定性。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例十四相同,此处不再赘述。
实施例十七
本实施例17提供了一种薄膜沉积方法,与实施例14相比,区别在于:
在基板w旋转或者加热托盘3旋转或者基板w与加热托盘3同步旋转之前,调整射频源5为关闭状态,并对处理腔室1进行净化处理。
由于在基板w上沉积一定层数的薄膜后,处理腔室1内部会存在杂质颗粒, 处理腔室1内部越脏,基板w在处理腔室1内部脱离加热托盘3时,越容易发生电弧放电现象。因此,在在基板w旋转或者加热托盘3旋转或者基板w与加热托盘3同步旋转之前,较佳的,可以关闭射频源5,通过气体供应组件2向处理腔室1内部供应氮气,对处理腔室1进行净化处理。
本实施例的其他设置与实施例十四相同,此处不再赘述。

步骤S5,向处理腔室1内部再次通入工艺气体,并调整射频源5为打开状态,然后在基板w上再沉积一定层数的薄膜;
步骤S6,停止向处理腔室1内部通入工艺气体,并向处理腔室1内部通入惰性气体或氮气,以保持处理腔室1内部的压力;
步骤S7,判断基板w上沉积薄膜的层数是否满足设定层数;若不满足,则重复上述步骤S2-S6;若满足,则执行步骤S8;
步骤S8,将基板w从处理腔室1内部取出,完成薄膜沉积工艺。
其中,加热托盘3与基板w同步旋转的旋转轴AA’垂直且穿过基板w的中心O。在本实施例18中,加热托盘3以过基板w中心的轴线AA’为旋转轴与基板w同步旋转进一步包括:加热托盘3绕着旋转轴AA’沿正向旋转设定角度后,再绕着旋转轴AA’沿反向旋转。
基板w上沉积的薄膜包括交替沉积的第一种材料和第二种材料。
其中,该薄膜沉积方法还包括:在基板w表面上每沉积一种材料后,都需要抽走处理腔室1内的废气,再进行后续工艺步骤。
