Abstract
Description
본 발명은 반도체 소자의 금속배선 형성방법에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는, 다마신(damascene) 공정에서 층간절연막 물질인 저유전율 절연막의 열화를 방지하기 위한 방법에 관한 것이다.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for forming metal wirings in a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a method for preventing deterioration of a low dielectric insulating film, which is an interlayer insulating film material, in a damascene process.
반도체 소자의 고집적 및 고속화가 진행되면서, 4.0∼4.2 정도의 유전율을 갖는 SiO2막으로된 통상의 층간절연막은 소자의 구동 속도 향상을 방해하는 요인으로서 작용하게 된다. 즉, 반도체 소자의 고집적화는 필연적으로 셀 영역의 크기 감소를 수반하게 되는데, 셀 영역의 크기가 감소되면, 이웃하는 금속배선들간의 기생 캐패시턴스가 증가되어 RC 지연이 증가하게 되고, 이 결과, 소자의 구동 속도를 향상시키는데 한계를 갖게 된다.As the integration and speed of semiconductor devices progress, the conventional interlayer insulating film made of SiO2 film having a dielectric constant of about 4.0 to 4.2 acts as a factor that hinders the improvement of the driving speed of the device. That is, high integration of semiconductor devices inevitably entails a reduction in the size of the cell region. When the size of the cell region is reduced, parasitic capacitance between neighboring metal interconnections increases, resulting in an increase in the RC delay. There is a limit to improving the driving speed.
따라서, 고속 소자의 구현을 위해, 층간절연막 물질에 대한 연구, 즉, 저유전율의 절연막을 반도체 제조 공정에 적용하려는 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다.Therefore, in order to realize a high-speed device, research into interlayer insulating film materials, that is, research into applying an insulating film having a low dielectric constant to a semiconductor manufacturing process has been actively conducted.
한편, 주지된 바와 같이, 기존의 금속배선은 RIE(Reaction Ion Etching) 공정, 즉, 금속막 상에 마스크 패턴을 형성한 후, RIE 공정으로 상기 금속막을 직접 식각하는 방법으로 형성되어져 왔다. 그런데, 상기 RIE 공정을 이용한 방법은 금속배선의 임계 치수(critical dimension)가 감소되고 있는 추세에서, 그 전기적 특성의 확보가 어려운 문제점이 있는 바, 새로운 방식의 금속배선 공정이 필요하게 되었고, 이에, 다마신(Damascene) 공정이 제안되었다.On the other hand, as is well known, the existing metal wiring has been formed by a method of directly etching the metal film by a reaction ion etching (RIE) process, that is, after forming a mask pattern on the metal film, the RIE process. However, the method using the RIE process has a problem that it is difficult to secure the electrical characteristics in the trend that the critical dimension of the metal wiring is reduced, and thus a new method of metal wiring is needed. The damascene process has been proposed.
상기 다마신 공정은 금속배선이 형성된 영역을 미리 한정한 후, 금속막의 증착 및 CMP(Chemical Mechanical Polishing)를 수행하여 금속배선을 형성하는 기술이다.The damascene process is a technique of forming a metal interconnection by defining a region in which metal interconnection is formed in advance and then performing deposition of a metal film and chemical mechanical polishing (CMP).
이러한 다마신 공정은 RIE 공정에 의한 금속배선 형성방법 보다 상대적으로 우수한 전기적 특성을 얻을 수 있기 때문에 반도체 소자의 고집적화 추세에서 그이용이 확대되리라 예상된다. 특히, 금속배선의 재질이 기존의 알루미늄에서 텅스텐 또는 구리로 변경되는 추세에서, 기존의 식각 공정으로는 구리막의 식각 매우 어렵기 때문에 상기 다마신 공정의 적용은 필수가 될 것으로 예상된다.Since the damascene process can obtain relatively superior electrical characteristics than the metallization method by the RIE process, its use is expected to expand in the trend of high integration of semiconductor devices. In particular, in the trend that the material of the metal wiring is changed from conventional aluminum to tungsten or copper, it is expected that the application of the damascene process is required because the etching of the copper film is very difficult with the conventional etching process.
그런데, 다마신 공정을 이용하여 금속배선을 형성할 경우, 통상, 2회의 마스킹 및 식각을 통해 층간절연막에 비아홀 및 트렌치로 구성되는 다마신 패턴의 형성한 후, Ar과 같은 비활성 기체를 이용한 스퍼터링 방식의 식각을 행하여 노출된 하부 금속배선 표면의 금속산화막을 제거하고, 그런다음, 베리어막 및 배선용 금속막을 증착하는데, 이때, 층간절연막으로서 저유전 절연막이 적용되면, 상기 금속산화막의 제거를 위한 RF 식각 과정에서 측벽 방향으로 입사되는 비활성 가스에 의해 보잉(bowing)과 같은 측벽 프로파일(profile) 변경이 발생됨으로써, 층간절연막, 즉, 저유전 절연막의 열화가 초래된다.However, in the case of forming the metal wiring by using the damascene process, after forming a damascene pattern composed of via holes and trenches in the interlayer insulating layer through two masking and etching processes, a sputtering method using an inert gas such as Ar is used. Etching to remove the exposed metal oxide film on the lower metal wiring surface, and then depositing the barrier film and the metal film for wiring, if a low dielectric insulating film is applied as an interlayer insulating film, RF etching for removal of the metal oxide film In the process, the sidewall profile change such as bowing is generated by the inert gas incident in the sidewall direction, resulting in deterioration of the interlayer insulating film, that is, the low dielectric insulating film.
또한, 층간절연막으로서 저유전 절연막이 적용되면, 상기 다마신 패턴을 형성하는 과정에서 층간절연막 내에 수분이 함유될 수 있는데, 이러한 수분이 베리어막의 증착 과정에서 아웃개싱(outgassing)됨으로써, 금속막의 매립(gap-fill) 불량을 유발하게 된다.In addition, when a low dielectric insulating film is applied as the interlayer insulating film, water may be contained in the interlayer insulating film in the process of forming the damascene pattern, which is outgassed during the deposition of the barrier film, thereby filling the metal film ( gap-fill).
결국, 종래 기술에 따라 금속배선의 형성을 위해 다마신 공정을 이용하면서, 층간절연막의 재질로 저유전 절연막을 적용하게 되면, 상기 저유전 절연막의 열화가 야기되는 바, 소자의 제조수율 및 신뢰성 저하가 발생된다.As a result, when the low dielectric insulating film is applied as a material of the interlayer insulating film while using the damascene process for forming the metal wiring according to the prior art, deterioration of the low dielectric insulating film is caused. Is generated.
따라서, 본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 안출된 것으로서,금속배선 공정에서 층간절연막 물질인 저유전 절연막의 열화를 방지할 수 있는 반도체 소자의 금속배선 형성방법을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a metal wiring of a semiconductor device capable of preventing deterioration of a low dielectric insulating film, which is an interlayer insulating film material, in the metal wiring process.
