[0007][Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In the conventional method of etching a semiconductor substrate in the manufacturing process of a semiconductor device as described above, a reaction gas is brought into a plasma state by glow discharge, and ions in the plasma impact the substrate and become excited. Since it is removed by easily causing a chemical reaction with fluorine and chlorine ions, if a photoresist or the like is used as a mask for the area to be etched, it will be decomposed by ion bombardment and re-attached to the side wall. This deposit may deteriorate the shape of the groove formed, or because it is difficult to remove, the deposit may remain, causing electrical instability in capacitance and the like. In addition, contamination of the semiconductor substrate occurs due to sputtering of the material on the inner wall of the device. [0005] Also, there are differences in the etching rate depending on the crystal plane of the substrate, (100), (110), (1
11) The accuracy of groove formation deteriorates in the order of surfaces. In addition, the etching rate increases when the impurity content is around 1020/Cm3, and even in reactive ion etching, undercuts are likely to occur under the mask, resulting in poor shape accuracy. [00061 Furthermore, in the case of flattening the substrate surface, similarly,
As wafer diameters increase, uniform etching within the wafer surface and batch becomes more difficult due to the effects of plasma density and gas flow. [0007]

[0015]DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. FIGS. 1(a) to 1(d) are cross-sectional views of a semiconductor chip shown in order of steps for explaining the first embodiment of the present invention,
This is a case where the present invention is applied to groove formation. [0010] First, as shown in FIG. 1(a), a photoresist film 1 is coated on a silicon substrate 10. Subsequently, the photoresist film 1 is patterned by photolithography. Next, as shown in Fig. 1(b), an ion implanter with variable acceleration voltage is used to implant the ions from several keV to several tens of Me.
While varying the range of V, germanium was added at a high concentration (2,
5x 10" cm-3) to form a germanium implantation layer 3. [0011] Next, as shown in FIG. By heat treatment at over 100℃,
A silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer 4 is formed. Finally, the silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer 4 is selectively etched using a dry etching method using a mixed gas of CF4 and 02, or a wet etching method using a mixed solution of ammonia water and hydrogen peroxide at about 100°C. To form a fine groove 5 with a good aspect ratio shape accuracy. The etching rate of the silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer 4 when using CF4 +02 gas is about 4 times that of the silicon substrate, and about 20 times when using an ammonia water/hydrogen peroxide mixture, so that the grooves 5 can be formed with high precision. I can do it. (00121 FIGS. 2(a) to 2(d) are cross-sectional views of a semiconductor chip for explaining a second embodiment of the present invention, in which the present invention is applied to planarization of a substrate. [0013] First, as shown in FIG. 2(a), a coating film 7 of polyimide, silanol, etc. is formed on the silicon substrate 10 having the convex portion 6 to flatten the surface.Next, as shown in FIG. 2(b)
As shown in FIG. 2, germanium is ion-implanted at a high concentration through the coating film 7 to form the convex portion 6 as a germanium-implanted layer 3A. [0014] Next, as shown in FIG. 2(C), the coating film 7
After removing, the convex portion is converted into a silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer 4A by heat treatment at several hundred degrees centigrade or higher by lamp annealing or furnace annealing. Next, as shown in Figure 2(d), a dry etching method using a mixed gas of CF 4 and 02, or an ammonia water etching method at about 100°C is performed.
By selectively etching the silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer 4A using a wet etching method using a hydrogen peroxide solution, a flat silicon substrate with good uniformity and no irregularities can be formed on the surface. [0015]

とができるという効果もある。[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention selectively introduces germanium at a high concentration into a silicon substrate by ion implantation to form a silicon-germanium mixed crystal layer, and then etches this mixed crystal layer. The surface can be flattened and grooves can be formed using the same method. Therefore, there is no fear of electrical instability caused by re-deposition of organic matter on the groove sidewalls due to reactive ion etching, and it is possible to form fine grooves with a high aspect ratio and good shape accuracy for VLSI, and to form grooves on silicon substrates. Flattening can be performed. In addition, since ion implantation is used for groove formation, the groove formation is highly uniform both within the wafer and within the batch, and grooves with excellent shape accuracy can be formed regardless of the surface orientation of the semiconductor substrate or the dose of impurities. There is also this effect.
