Description

Ultra-high aspect ratio SONO etching process
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to an etching process with ultra-high depth-to-width ratio in a batch process of SONO (silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide) memory chips.
Background
With the increasing widespread application of micro-electromechanical devices and micro-electromechanical systems in the fields of automobiles and consumer electronics and the broad prospect of silicon channel hole etching technology in the future packaging field, the dry plasma deep silicon etching technology gradually becomes one of the most popular heat-generating technologies in the field of micro-electromechanical system processing and the silicon channel hole etching technology.
In the field of semiconductor technology, 3D package-on-package technology has been considered as a key to manufacturing high performance chips with smaller dimensions. In the application of the 3D stacked package technology, deep via etching is usually performed on materials such as silicon, and vertical conduction is made between chips and between silicon wafers through the deep vias formed by etching, so as to realize interconnection between the chips.
In most cases, through-silicon-via fabrication requires different material layers to be opened, and the through-silicon-via formed thereby must meet the requirements of profile control (e.g., sidewall roughness, etc.), so the through-silicon-via etching process becomes the key of the through-silicon-via fabrication technology.
After the conventional Channel Hole (CH) deep Hole etching process is finished, in the conventional Channel Hole etching process, the stacked structure on the substrate is formed by sequentially depositing silicon oxide, silicon nitride and silicon oxide, wherein the thickness of the silicon oxide film is equal to
Figure BDA0001471198480000011
The film thickness of silicon nitride is
Figure BDA0001471198480000012
The thickness of the silicon oxide is
Figure BDA0001471198480000013
And the specific etching thereof generally employs the following steps:
step S1, forming a layer of epitaxial silicon at the bottom of the channel hole through epitaxial growth deposition;
step S2, depositing silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxide and amorphous silicon film layer on the side wall and bottom of the trench hole in sequence; wherein the amorphous silicon has a thickness of
Figure BDA0001471198480000014
And step S3, performing one-step dry etching to open the film at the bottom of the trench hole so as to connect the film to the epitaxial silicon.
Fig. 1 is a microscopic electron micrograph of a trench hole generated by the above conventional etching process. As shown in fig. 1, in the above conventional process, since the material of the trench hole and the material of the top hard mask are the same, the etching rate of the top of the trench hole is very high by using a one-step etching method, and the etching rate of the trench hole is very low, which finally causes the defect that the top hard mask of the trench hole is not blocked enough to cause damage, and the bottom of the hole cannot be opened.
Therefore, how to improve the SONO etching process and ensure that all SONO holes are opened, thereby forming an etching process that is connected with bottom epitaxial silicon and obtains a high aspect ratio, is a direction of research by those skilled in the art.

It is to be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and are not to precise scale, which is merely for the purpose of facilitating and distinctly claiming the embodiments of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 2, a first embodiment of the present invention provides a novel high aspect ratio SONO etching process after a conventional Channel Hole (CH) deep Hole etching process is completed, wherein the process includes providing a substrate stack structure, specifically, providing a substrate, and forming a plurality of staggered stacked interlayer dielectric layers and sacrificial dielectric layers on the surface of the substrate, where the sacrificial dielectric layers are formed between adjacent interlayer dielectric layers; the interlayer dielectric layer is a silicon oxide layer, the sacrificial dielectric layer is a silicon nitride layer, so that an O/N (O/N Stacks) stack structure 7 is formed, and the silicon nitride layer on the uppermost layer is used as an etching hard mask layer; the method is characterized in that:
step S1: depositing an amorphous silicon layer on the uppermost etching hard mask layer;
step S2: forming a channel hole on the substrate stack structure; forming a layer of epitaxial silicon at the bottom of the channel hole through epitaxial growth deposition;
step S3, depositing silicon Oxide (OX), silicon nitride (SiN), silicon Oxide (OX) and amorphous silicon (Si) film layers on the side wall and the bottom of the trench hole in sequence;
step S4, opening the silicon layers at the top and the bottom of the trench hole by adopting dry etching, and simultaneously ensuring that the silicon layer on the side wall has a certain residue;
and step S5, adopting dry chemical etching to remove the silicon oxide and the silicon nitride layer deposited at the bottom of the through hole.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2a, 1 is a base silicon layer on a trench hole substrate; wherein a multilayer staggered O/N Stacks (O/N Stacks)7 is formed on the surface of the substrate, and a hard mask layer and an amorphous silicon thin film layer 3(Si) are etched by silicon nitride (SIN) 4;
in the stacked structure, the thickness of the silicon oxide layer 5 immediately adjacent to the etched hard mask layer is controlled to
Figure BDA0001471198480000051
The thickness of the silicon nitride layer 4 for etching the hard mask layer is controlled to

The thickness of the amorphous silicon layer 3 redeposited on the uppermost etched hard mask layer is controlled in step S1
Figure BDA0001471198480000053
In step S2, an epitaxial silicon layer 2 is epitaxially grown on the bottom of the trench hole.
In step S3, silicon Oxide (OX), silicon nitride (SiN), silicon Oxide (OX), amorphous silicon (Si) thin film layer are sequentially deposited on the trench hole sidewall and bottom, i.e. the SONO layer structure 6 (in the figure, the structure 6 is sequentially Si, OX, SiN, OX layers from top to bottom) is formed, as shown in fig. 2a, 6, wherein the thickness of the silicon layer on the outermost surface of the SONO structure 6 is preferably as shown in fig. 2a
Figure BDA0001471198480000054
The deposition steps S1-S3 are conventional in the art, such as the conventional Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) process for depositing the oxide, and thus are not shown and will not be described in detail herein.
In step S4, the silicon layers at the top and bottom of the trench hole are opened by dry etching, specifically, plasma dry etching, and the silicon layers at the sidewall of the trench hole are ensured to remain, wherein
Figure BDA0001471198480000055
After etching, the epitaxial silicon layers at the top and the bottom of the channel hole are removed, and only the epitaxial silicon layers on the side wall of the channel hole are remained, as shown in fig. 2 b. After the dry etching in the step S4, the structure of the top and bottom of the trench hole becomes silicon Oxide (OX), silicon nitride (SiN), and silicon Oxide (OX), and the specific structure is shown in fig. 2 b.
The etching gas for dry etching is usually selective, so that the silicon layer can be accurately opened by selecting the type of the etching gas, and the silicon layer on the side wall of the channel hole is ensured to keep a certain residual thickness. For the above purpose, Cl is preferably used2and/HBr is used as etching gas for the plasma etching. Among them, the applicant has shown Cl in a plurality of tests2The selectivity of/HBr to silica is high and there is substantially no loss of silica during this step.
Finally, dry chemical etching is performed in step S5 to selectively etch the silicon oxide and silicon nitride layers (OX & SiN). The selection ratio of the etching gas to the silicon oxide and silicon nitride layers to the amorphous silicon is (OX & SiN/Si) >500:1, so that the silicon oxide and silicon nitride layers (OX & SiN) can be accurately etched enough, the bottom of a channel hole is completely opened, the channel hole can be well connected with epitaxial silicon, and meanwhile, the side wall and the hard mask SiN cannot be damaged. The etched channel hole structure is shown in fig. 2c, where the silicon Oxide (OX), silicon nitride (SiN) layers at the top and bottom of the channel hole are opened.
In summary, the invention changes the structure of the thin film layer in the prior art, thereby improving the performance of the thin film layer in the prior art

On the other hand, the conventional one-step etching process is optimized into a two-step etching process: the first step is dry etching to etch Si, and the second step is dry chemical etching to etch OX/SIN. The process ensures that all SONO holes are opened in the etching process, thereby realizing good connection between the channel holes and the bottom epitaxial silicon, simultaneously ensuring that the side wall hard mask silicon nitride of the channel holes is not damaged, increasing the process window of the subsequent processing procedure and improving the performance of the product.
