具体实施方式
下面结合附图对本公开的几种可选地实现方式进行介绍,当本领域技术人员应当理解,下述实现方式仅是示意性的,并非是穷尽式的列举,在这些实现方式的基础上,本领域技术人员可以对某些特征或者某些示例进行替换、拼接或者组合,这些仍应视为本公开的公开内容。
通常,对重布线层中的金属层进行一次干法蚀刻,以得到金属线之后,需要形成覆盖金属线且填充相邻金属线之间的凹槽的钝化层,以对形成的金属线进行保护,同时确保相邻金属线之间彼此绝缘。然而,在研究的过程中,本公开的发明人注意到:通过上述工艺流程形成的钝化层的质量相对较低,性能相对较差。
图1为一种干法蚀刻形成的导电线的结构示意图,图2为一种在导电线上形成的钝化层的结构示意图。本公开的发明人发现,如图1所示,在对重布线层中的金属层进行一次干法蚀刻,以得到金属线20之后,相邻金属线20之间的凹槽的侧壁上容易形成聚合物残留40;如图2所示,由于聚合物残留40的存在,在后续形成钝化层60时,凹槽内的钝化层60容易提前封口,进而导致钝化层60内存在缝隙,使得钝化层60性能相对较差。
有鉴于此,本公开实施例提供一种半导体结构的制作方法以及半导体结构,半导体结构的制作方法包括:提供基底,基底上覆盖有导电层;干法蚀刻去除部分导电层,以形成第一凹槽,第一凹槽的深度小于导电层的厚度,第一凹槽的槽壁上有聚合物残留;去除第一凹槽的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层,以形成导电线以及位于相邻导电线间的第二凹槽;形成钝化层,其填充在第二凹槽内。通过去除第一凹槽的槽壁对应的部分导电层,可以同时去除沉积在第一凹槽的槽壁上的聚合物,避免后续在第二凹槽内填充钝化层时提前封口,进一步避免钝化层内部出现缝隙,有利于改善半导体结构性能。
请参照图3,本公开实施例提供一种半导体结构的制作方法,包括以下步骤S101至步骤S104。
步骤S101、提供基底,基底上覆盖有导电层。
本实施例中,参照图4,基底10可以为半导体衬底,例如单晶硅、多晶硅或非晶结构的硅或硅锗(SiGe),也可以为混合的半导体结构,例如碳化硅、锑化铟、碲化铅、砷化铟、磷化铟、砷化镓或锑化镓、合金半导体或其组合。本实施例在此不对其进行限制。
本实施例中,导电层30可以通过电镀或者沉积等方式形成。例如,导电层30可以与基底10内部具有的接触垫连接,以使后续能使半导体结构通过导电层30与外部电连接。在一种具体的实现方式中,导电层30的材质例如可以包括铝、钛、钨、氮化钛等导电金属和/或化合物。
例如,导电层30可以包括在基底10上依次设置的多个子导电层。例如,如图4 所示,导电层30可以包括在基底10上依次设置的三个子导电层,即第一子导电层301、第二子导电层302、第三子导电层303。例如,在一种具体的实现方式中,第一子导电层301的材质可以包括钛,第二子导电层302的材质可以包括铝,第三子导电层303的材质可以包括氮化钛。需要说明的是,本实施例包括但不限于此。
步骤S102、干法蚀刻去除部分导电层,以形成第一凹槽,第一凹槽的深度小于导电层的厚度,第一凹槽的槽壁上形成聚合物。
参照图4,干法蚀刻去除部分导电层30,包括:在导电层30上形成第一掩膜层50,第一掩膜层50上具有第一蚀刻开口51。
在一种具体的实现方式中,第一掩膜层50的材质可以包括光阻,通过曝光显影的工艺去除部分光阻,以形成第一蚀刻开口51。
本实施例中,参照图5,干法蚀刻去除部分导电层30,还包括:在导电层30上形成第一掩膜层50以后,以第一掩膜层50为掩膜,对导电层30进行蚀刻,以形成第一凹槽31。
值得说明的是,以第一掩膜层50为掩膜对导电层30进行干法蚀刻,干法蚀刻是一种使用等离子体进行薄膜蚀刻的技术,在蚀刻过程中,使等离子体轰击被蚀刻物体的表面,从而去除被蚀刻物体,达到蚀刻的目的。在本实施例中,干法蚀刻去除导电层30,等离子体轰击导电层30的过程中,会产生结合物,结合物会残留在第一凹槽31的槽壁上,该残留的结合物即为聚合物残留40。在干法蚀刻去除部分导电层30的过程中,可以通过控制干法蚀刻的时间进而控制形成的第一凹槽31的深度,使第一凹槽31的深度小于导电层30的厚度,以便后续通过继续蚀刻第一凹槽31,以去除第一凹槽31槽壁上的聚合物残留40。
步骤S103、去除第一凹槽的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层,以形成导电线以及位于相邻导电线间的第二凹槽。
例如,通过去除第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30,可以形成导电线20,形成的导电线20即为重分布线,相邻的导电线20之间的凹槽即为第二凹槽33。通过去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,可以去除沉积在第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口(即使第二凹槽33的侧壁上仍有聚合物残留,该聚合物残留的体积也远小于图1所示的一次干法刻蚀中的聚合物残留的体积),从而避免钝化层80内部出现缝隙,有利于提高半导体结构性能。
本实施例中,参照图6和图7,去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20以及位于相邻导电线20间的第二凹槽33,包括:在导电层30上形成第二掩膜层60,第二掩膜层60上具有第二蚀刻开口61,第二蚀刻开口61正对第一凹槽31设置,且第二蚀刻开口61在基底10上的正投影面积大于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积。
在一些实施例中,第二掩膜层60可以覆盖在第一掩膜层50上,第二蚀刻开口61正对第一凹槽31,且由于第一蚀刻开口51正对第一凹槽31,第二蚀刻开口61正对第一蚀刻开口51,并使第二蚀刻开口61在基底10上的正投影面积大于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,便于后续去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30, 进而使得沉积在第一凹槽31槽壁上的聚合物残留40被一同去除掉。
在本实施例中,在导电层30上形成第二掩膜层60包括:在形成第一凹槽31后,对第一掩膜层50进行收缩处理,以增大第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,形成第二掩膜层60及位于第二掩膜层60上的第二蚀刻开口61。
本实施例中,第二掩膜层60也即为进行收缩处理后的第一掩膜层50,由于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积增大,也即形成的第二蚀刻开口61在基底10上的正投影面积大于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,使得后续以第二掩膜层60做掩膜进行蚀刻时,不仅能蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30,还能蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,便于后续去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,进而使得沉积在第一凹槽31槽壁上的聚合物残留40被一同去除掉。
在本实施例中,对第一掩膜层50进行收缩处理包括:对第一掩膜层50进行蚀刻,以去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁。
通过去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁,可以增大第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,从而形成第二蚀刻开口61,并且形成的第二蚀刻开口61正对第一凹槽31。
可选地,可以对第一掩膜层50进行干法蚀刻,以去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁。在一种具体的实现方式中,通过干法蚀刻,从第一掩膜层50的上表面和侧壁对第一掩膜层50进行整体减薄,以扩大第一蚀刻开口51,从而得到第二掩膜层60(即减薄后的第一掩膜层)以及位于第二掩膜层60中的第二蚀刻开口61(即扩大的第一蚀刻开口)。可选地,干法蚀刻的蚀刻气体可以包括氧气、氢气、氮气中的至少一种。
本实施例中,参照图7,去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20以及位于相邻导电线20间的第二凹槽33,还包括:在形成第二掩膜层60以后,以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30,以形成导电线20和第二凹槽33。
以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30时,会继续蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30,直至蚀刻贯穿导电层30,从而形成导电线20。同时,还会继续蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,可以去除沉积在第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口,进一步避免钝化层80内部出现缝隙,有利于提高半导体结构性能。
例如,参照图6,第二蚀刻开口61与第一凹槽31的槽壁之间的距离D可以包括50nm-100nm,通过调节导电层30的蚀刻面积,可以调节去除的聚合物残留40的体积,以便通过进一步去除沉积在第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口,从而进一步改善半导体结构性能。
本实施例中,参照图7,以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30,以形成第二凹槽33,还包括:以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30及部分基底10,形成第二凹槽33。
以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30时,在蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30以后,还会继续蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分基底10,从而形成导电线20。本实施例中,形成的第二凹槽33的槽底即为基底10,形成的第二凹槽33的槽壁包括基底10和导电层30。
例如,以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30还包括:以第二掩膜层60为掩膜通 过干法蚀刻的方式对导电层30进行蚀刻。干法蚀刻的过程中,使用等离子体轰击导电层30,同时,等离子体还能够轰击第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,使得聚合物残留40被击碎成碎屑,从而进一步去除聚合物残留40。值得说明的是,在干法蚀刻的过程中聚合物残留40被去除,同时,第二凹槽33的槽壁上有可能形成新的聚合物残留40,由于第二凹槽33上的聚合物残留40的体积小于第一凹槽31上聚合物残留40的体积,可以避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口,改善半导体结构性能。
步骤S104、形成钝化层,其填充在第二凹槽内。
本实施例中,参照图8,形成钝化层80,其填充在第二凹槽33内之前,还包括:去除第二掩膜层60。
例如,可以通过清洗液清洗去除第二掩膜层60。在蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30时,沉积在第一凹槽31槽壁上的聚合物残留40的碎屑可能会掉落在第二凹槽33的槽底。在通过清洗液去除第二掩膜层60的过程中,可以进一步去除掉落在第二凹槽33的槽底的碎屑,有利于进一步提高半导体结构的性能。
在形成钝化层80,其填充在第二凹槽33内之前,还包括:在去除第二掩膜层60之后,形成绝缘层70,其覆盖在导电线20以及第二凹槽33的槽壁和槽底。通过形成绝缘层70,可以隔绝相邻的导电线20。绝缘层70的材质例如可以包括氮化物、氧化物以及氮氧化物等。
在形成绝缘层70之后,可以形成覆盖其的钝化层80,钝化层80填充在第二凹槽33内,且钝化层80还覆盖在导电线20上。钝化层80的材质例如可以包括聚酰亚胺,从而起到应力缓冲以及保护导电线20的作用。例如,钝化层80还能够起到平坦化的作用。
本公开实施例提供一种半导体结构的制作方法,包括:提供基底10,基底10上覆盖有导电层30;干法蚀刻去除部分导电层30,以形成第一凹槽31,第一凹槽31的深度小于导电层30的厚度,第一凹槽31的槽壁上形成聚合物残留40;去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20以及位于相邻导电线20间的第二凹槽33;形成钝化层80,其填充在第二凹槽33内。通过去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,可以同时去除沉积在第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口,进一步避免钝化层80内部出现缝隙,有利于提高半导体结构性能。
本实施例中,参照图5,以第一掩膜层50为掩膜,对导电层30进行蚀刻,以形成第一凹槽31,还包括:第一凹槽31的深度H1为导电层30厚度H2的1/3-1/2。第一凹槽31的深度H1为导电层30厚度H2的1/3-1/2时,第一凹槽31槽壁上形成的聚合物残留40便于通过后续蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽壁,而从第一凹槽31上剥离,有利于进一步去除聚合物残留40,从而进一步提高半导体结构的性能。
例如,形成的第一凹槽31的深度,还可以通过控制蚀刻时间来调节。例如,以第一掩膜层50为掩膜,对导电层30进行蚀刻,以形成第一凹槽31的蚀刻时间可以为第一时段,去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20以及第二凹槽33的蚀刻时间可以为第二时段,第一时段与第二时段的和为总的蚀刻时间, 为进一步去除聚合物残留40,进一步提高半导体结构的性能,可使第一时段为总的蚀刻时间的1/3-1/2。
上述实施例中,通过一次收缩处理和一次蚀刻工艺形成第二凹槽33,从而实现了去除第一凹槽31上的聚合物残留40。参照图9至图13,在一些其他的实施例中,根据第一凹槽31上聚合物残留40的实际情况,去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20和第二凹槽33,还可以包括:中间蚀刻。通过设置中间蚀刻步骤,有利于进一步去除第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40。
请参照图9,中间蚀刻的步骤可以包括:在导电层30上形成中间掩膜层90,中间掩膜层90上具有中间蚀刻开口91,中间蚀刻开口91正对第一凹槽31设置,中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积大于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,并且中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积小于第二蚀刻开口61在基底10上的正投影面积。
在本实施例中,在导电层30上形成中间掩膜层90包括:在形成第一凹槽31后,对第一掩膜层50进行收缩处理,以增大第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,形成中间掩膜层90及位于中间掩膜层90上的中间蚀刻开口91。
中间掩膜层90也即为进行收缩处理后的第一掩膜层50,由于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积增大,也即形成的中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积大于第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,使得后续以中间掩膜层90做掩膜进行蚀刻时,不仅能蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30,还能蚀刻第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,便于后续去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,进而使得沉积在第一凹槽31槽壁上的聚合物残留40被一同去除掉。
对中间掩膜层90进行收缩处理包括:对第一掩膜层50进行蚀刻,以去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁。
通过去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁,可以增大第一蚀刻开口51在基底10上的正投影面积,从而形成中间蚀刻开口91,并且形成的中间蚀刻开口91正对第一凹槽31。
可选地,可以对第一掩膜层50进行干法蚀刻,以去除第一蚀刻开口51的侧壁。在一种具体的实现方式中,通过干法蚀刻,从第一掩膜层50的上表面和侧壁对第一掩膜层50进行整体减薄,以扩大第一蚀刻开口51,从而得到中间掩膜层90(即减薄后的第一掩膜层)以及位于中间掩膜层90中的中间蚀刻开口91(即扩大的第一蚀刻开口)。可选地,干法蚀刻的蚀刻气体可以包括氧气、氢气、氮气中的至少一种。
参照图10,中间蚀刻的步骤还包括:在形成中间掩膜层90以后,以中间掩膜层90为掩膜,对导电层30进行蚀刻,以形成中间凹槽32。值得说明的是,通过去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,进而使得沉积在第一凹槽31槽壁上的部分聚合物残留301被一同去除掉,同时,在进行中间蚀刻的过程中,中间凹槽32的槽壁上还会继续形成聚合物残留301,此时聚合物残留301的体积较之前减小。
参照图10,中间凹槽32的深度大于第一凹槽31的深度且小于第二凹槽33的深度。在蚀刻的过程中,去除第一凹槽31的槽底对应的部分导电层30,以使中间凹槽32的深度大于第一凹槽31的深度,后续通过继续蚀刻中间凹槽32的槽底对应的部分导电层30,中间凹槽32的深度小于第二凹槽33的深度。在蚀刻的过程中,可以通过 控制蚀刻的时间,进而控制形成的中间凹槽32的深度。
参照图11以及图12,在形成中间凹槽32以后,去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20和第二凹槽33,还包括:去除中间凹槽32的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20和第二凹槽33。
具体地,在形成中间凹槽32以后,在导电层30上形成第二掩膜层60,第二掩膜层60上具有第二蚀刻开口61,第二蚀刻开口61正对中间凹槽32设置,且第二蚀刻开口61在基底10上的正投影面积大于中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积。在形成第二掩膜层60以后,以第二掩膜层60为掩膜蚀刻导电层30,以形成导电线20和第二凹槽33,以便完全去除聚合物残留40。参照图13,在完全去除聚合物残留40以后,再形成填充在第二凹槽33内的钝化层80。
可选地,上述实施例中的中间蚀刻可以为多次,每一次中间蚀刻中,中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积均大于上一次中间蚀刻中中间蚀刻开口91在基底10上的正投影面积。根据第一凹槽31上形成的聚合物残留40的体积,可以通过调节中间蚀刻步骤的次数,进一步去除聚合物残留40。通过将每次中间蚀刻的中间蚀刻开口91的导电层30上的投影面积相较上一次而进行扩大,可以使得每次中间蚀刻时,都能去除中间凹槽32的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,进而使得沉积在中间凹槽32的槽壁上的聚合物残留40被一同去除掉。值得说明的是,每次中间蚀刻步骤均可以采用上述实施例中的步骤实现,在此不再赘述。
本公开实施例还提供一种半导体结构,半导体结构由上述半导体结构的制作方法形成。半导体结构的制作方法包括:提供基底10,基底10上覆盖有导电层30;干法蚀刻去除部分导电层30,以形成第一凹槽31,第一凹槽31的深度小于导电层30的厚度,第一凹槽31的槽壁上形成聚合物残留40;去除第一凹槽31的槽壁和槽底对应的部分导电层30,以形成导电线20以及位于相邻导电线20间的第二凹槽33;形成钝化层80,其填充在第二凹槽33内。通过去除第一凹槽31的槽壁对应的部分导电层30,可以同时去除沉积在第一凹槽31的槽壁上的聚合物残留40,避免后续在第二凹槽33内填充钝化层80时提前封口,进一步避免钝化层80内部出现缝隙,有利于提高半导体结构性能。
