Abstract

The traditional method for producing multi-level contacts has the problem of increasing interference effect of the exposure light source when the linewidth shrinks. Moreover, since the depths of multi-level contacts are different, it is difficult to control the interference of the reflected light, which not only makes the microlithography process difficult to control, but is also confronted with the problem that the overetched photoresist being washed away due to the different depths of the contact window. The present invention integrates the reflection light of multi-depths into reflection light of a single-depth by depositing a silicon nitro-oxide with a titanic compound layer, and decreases the reflected light by antireflection coating, which not only avoids the interference of the reflected light, but also can be the hard mask of the etching process. It shows a good effect to control the critical dimension of the microlithography and etching processes, and can even enlarge the microlithography process window and increase the yield rate of product.

Description of the invention (1) Background of the invention (please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing multi-layer contact windows, especially to an application The anti-reflection layer silicon oxynitride and titanium compound layers are used in the method of manufacturing a multilayer contact window, which can solve the problems of conventional multilayer methods such as the difficulty of controlling the multilayer reflected light and the end point of etching and the low yield of the lithographic process window. The prior art shows that as the density of integrated circuits increases, the critical dimension (CD) continues to shrink, and the requirements for lithography and etching processes continue to increase. 'To smaller critical dimensions, and even to the next generation Advancing the critical dimension has become the industry's biggest challenge. The Intellectual Property Bureau employee consumer cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs of the printed clothing semiconductor manufacturing process uses near ultraviolet (NUV) or even deep ultraviolet (DUV) as the light source for the development of lithographic definition graphics exposure. With the critical size of line width, It becomes smaller, and the light source itself has a great influence on the resolution of the photoresist on the silicon wafer. Taking g_Une (436 nm) and i-line (365 nm) to KrF (248 nm) as an example, the wavelength shrinks, which increases the resolution (Resolution), the critical size of the line width is reduced, but it also causes the focal depth ( Depth of Focus (DOF) becomes smaller. Inaccurate focusing will result in poor exposure, making it difficult to control the lithography process. As the wavelength shrinks, the swing amplitude of the Swing curve of the energy intensity and line width to the depth of the photoresistance increases, the line width control is not easy, and the standing wave effect is significant. The method of manufacturing a multilayer contact window 'is due to the line width's shrinkage (shrink) and reflected light interference at different depths, such as the critical size. The paper size is universal. Due to the family standard (CNS) Al specification (210 * 297 mm) 426984 A7 Member of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, X Consumer Cooperation. Printed by B7. V. Invention Description (2) The CD becomes easy to enlarge, the sentence is poor, the notching phenomenon and the standing wave phenomenon are very serious; more Due to the different etching depths, it is not easy to control the etching. In the process of manufacturing a multilayer contact window, the critical dimension CD control of the lithography changes due to different depths, that is, the distance of the incident light reaching the first reflecting surface is different, which causes the complexity of reflected light interference, because when the depth of the contact window At the same time, the interference of reflected light from the lower layer is different, which causes the line width of each exposure area to be different. The line width cannot be controlled uniformly. On the other hand, the line width is reduced and the interference level is relatively large. It is difficult to control the deep end of the last name and so on. As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional multilayer contact window structure has a dielectric layer 13 and a patterned photoresist I2 deposited on a silicon substrate i; the dielectric layer π is generally a silicon-oxygen layer such as shattered glass (BPSG, Boro -phospho-silicate-glass) and / or TEOS 'Tetra-ethyl-ortho-sil.icate or other dielectric materials. Among them are the gate material defined by the isolation layer 14 and tungsten silicide 15 and polycrystalline silicon 16; the incident light 17 penetrates the dielectric layer 13 after passing through the uncovered area of the photomask. Due to its light penetrability, part of the light All the way to the gate defined by the isolation layer U and tungsten silicide I5 and polycrystalline silicon 16 are reflected through the surface of the dielectric layer 13 and then interfere with the photoresist 12 in the masking area of the mask, causing partial exposure of the photoresist in the masking area; or reflection The interference phenomenon between light and incident light leads to standing wave effect, the pattern section is blurred and wavy, and the process control is not easy. Furthermore, the contact depths of the contact windows are not the same, which makes it difficult to control the end of the etching. If the etching is too deep, the thickness of the photoresist will be insufficient or it will be over-etched to the element materials located at a shallower position, such as polycrystalline silicon 16, Make the line width easy to exceed the control standards; if the etching depth is not enough, the component materials in deeper positions-5 ~ This paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A1 grid 497 meals ---- i ---;- -, "Install -------- order (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

Description of the invention (6) Dielectric layers are formed ▲ Most of the contact windows are the reflective layer and The anti-reflection layer is used as an etched hard cover, and the bottom of the contact windows and the elements individually abut. In a preferred embodiment, the reflective layer is selected from titanium and titanium nitride. It is a silicon oxynitride. Further, the present invention further discloses a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, which includes the following steps: forming a plurality of devices on a substrate; forming an anti-reflective silicon oxynitride layer and a reflective titanium compound layer On the substrate, a plurality of multilayer contact windows are etched and formed on the substrate, wherein the reflective layer and the anti-reflection layer are used as an etched hard mask, and the bottom of the contact windows is separate from the components. The ground is in contact. An example of the anti-reflection layer is shown in Fig. 2 to reduce the interference of reflected light. After the incident light 21 enters the photoresist 12, it is partially absorbed for photochemical exposure reaction, partly reflected by the top layer of the anti-reflection layer 24 to form the first reflected light 22, and part of the incident light penetrates the anti-reflection layer 24 and is reflected by the lower layer. The second reflected light 23 is reflected by the layer 25 and returns to the photoresist 12; by controlling the thickness, refractive index (Refractive index, η) and extinction coefficient (k) of the anti-reflection layer 24, the second The phase difference between the reflected light 23 and the incident light 21 or the first reflected light 22 is a half wavelength, that is, 180G. The two cancel each other out, and the reflected light interference can be removed. FIG. 3 further illustrates how the present invention eliminates the problem of multiple reflection interference by depositing a reflective layer and an anti-reflective layer on a conventional multilayer contact window structure. First, a reflective layer 33 is deposited on the dielectric layer 13 of the multi-layered contact window substrate, and then an anti-reflection layer 32 is deposited thereon, and a photoresist 12 is coated; the dielectric layer is generally BPSG and / or TEOS or other Dielectric material.

Description of the invention (7) When the exposure pattern of the layer contact window mask is exposed, the incident light 31 penetrates the mask After covering the area, it enters the anti-reflection layer 32 and the reflective layer 33. The reflective layer 33 reflects all the penetrating light back to the anti-reflection layer 32. The light no longer penetrates into the dielectric layer 13, and there is no trouble of multiple deep reflected light. Multiple depths of reflected light are integrated into a single depth of reflected light to simplify the complex problem of reflected light; on the other hand, the phase difference between the first reflected light reflected by the anti-reflection layer 32 and the second reflected light reflected by the reflective layer 33 is better Each of them is reduced to 180Q, and the interference of reflected light is further reduced. This phase difference can be controlled by the thickness of the anti-reflection layer 32, the refractive index, and the extinction coefficient in combination with the wavelength of the light source. During the manufacturing process of the multiple contact window, such a process design allows the reflected light interference generated during the lithographic exposure and development stages to be resolved. As for the etching process stage, the deposition of the anti-reflection layer 32 and the reflection layer 33, especially the reflection layer 33. It can be used as a hard cover screen to counteract the problem of over-etching which may be caused by different etching depths during the etching process ". Hereinafter, the steps of a specific embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to circle 4. First, a reflective layer 33 is deposited on the dielectric layer 13. The reflective layer 33 can be selected from titanium, or titanium plus titanium nitride. The considerations for selection and the difference are the adhesion of the material of the front layer. Next, an anti-reflection layer 32 is deposited, and the lithography pattern is made. In a specific embodiment, the anti-reflection layer 32 is selected from silicon oxynitride; the thickness of the anti-reflection layer is about 200. Between Angstrom and ι〇⑼ang, preferably between 28 Angstrom and 310 Angstrom. Next, the anti-reflection layer 32 and the anti-reflection layer 33 are removed, and the pressure is between 0 '〇1 millitorr (mT) to 10 millitorr, using 1% -40% CH4, 1% _20% CHF3,1 % 50% Bci3, '3 %% Cl2, 1% -80% Ar or 1% _20% 〇2 gas chemical etching exposure area anti-reflection -10-----.------ I iw- -Packing ---- tf --- Order · (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) The K degree of this paper applies the Chinese standard (CNS) A4 (21ϋ X 297 male 4269 8 δ A7 _______B7_________ V. Description of the invention (8) Abrasion grinding 32 and anti-reflection layer 33, as shown in Fig. 4a. The silver engraving method is commonly used by ordinary people in the industry. The oxide layer in the contact window opens the contact window, as shown in Fig. 4b. At this time, during the etching process, the deposited reflective layer 33 and the anti-reflection layer 32 can prevent the etching difference that may be caused by the different etching depth of the contact window, and avoid The photoresist cannot resist the loss of etching, leading to damage to the surface layer of the dielectric layer 13 and the inaccuracy of the etching and affecting the accuracy of the pattern. The contact window is not etched deeply enough, which causes the contact window to remain unopened and excessive etching. In addition to destroying the underlying material of the contact window, the size of the contact window is different, which also causes difficulties in the process and reduces the product yield. Next, the photoresist and nitrogen are removed by etching.
