Leakage problem 'while improving flash memory's data retention ability. Background note
可電抹除且可程式唯讀記憶體(electrical ly erasable programmable read only memory, EEPROM)乓 有可重複寫入、可被電抹除以及其所儲存之資料可保存十 年以上的優點,因此已成為目前最常被使用也是發展最迅 速的記憶體產品之一,然而EEPR0M卻具有存取速^較慢的 缺點。為了解決這個缺點,一種稱作快閃·記憶體(f 1 & s h、 memory)的產品被英代爾(Intel)公司發展出來。快閃記情 體的結構與E E P R 0 Μ相同,只不過快閃記憶體的資料抹除^ 作是以區域方式(block by block)進行,取代傳統EEpR〇MElectrically ly erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) has the advantages of being rewritable, electrically erasable, and its stored data can be stored for more than ten years. It has become one of the most commonly used and rapidly developing memory products. However, EEPROM has the disadvantage of slower access speed ^. To address this shortcoming, a product called flash memory (f 1 & sh, memory) was developed by Intel Corporation. The structure of the flash memory is the same as E E P R 0 Μ, but the data erasure of the flash memory is performed in a block by block mode, replacing the traditional EEPR〇M
以位元為單位(byte by byte)方式進行,因此能明顯地節 省資料抹除的時間。 * 立請參考圖一,圖一為習知一快閃記憶體單元3〇的剖面 示意圖。如圖一所示,快閃記憶體單元3 〇包含有一基^ 10、一浮動閘極(floating gate)17、一 0N0介電層J 8以及It is performed in byte by byte mode, so it can significantly save data erasure time. * Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic cross-sectional view of a conventional flash memory unit 30.

The hot electrons tunnel into and out of the floating gate 17 through the floating gate oxide layer 13 to achieve the flash memory unit 30 data access function. However, it is known that polycrystalline silicon residue 22 is often generated during the process of making the flash memory unit 30, which causes a leakage phenomenon and reduces the data retention ability of the memory. This is because the cross-sectional profile of the dielectric layers 12a and 12b is not perpendicular to the substrate. When the angle 0 (as shown in Fig. 1) between the dielectric layers 12a and 12b and the substrate exceeds 90 degrees, the word line 20, the first polycrystalline silicon layer 14 and the second polycrystalline silicon are etched. After layer 16 is formed, a polysilicon residue 2 2 that is not etched away is formed on the sidewall of the dielectric layer. This polycrystalline silicon residue 2 2 is also known as a stringer 0 by those skilled in the art. Therefore, this The purpose of the invention is to provide a flash memory manufacturing method to solve the above problems. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a flash memory without stray matter (s t r i n g e r 1 e s s), which can obtain good reliability.

Next, a polycrystalline silicon layer 52 is deposited on the surface of the oxide layer 51 to a thickness of about 800 to 1600 Angstroms. The method for depositing the polycrystalline silicon layer 52 can be a low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) method. The process conditions are: silane (SiD) is used as the reaction gas, and the temperature is set at 5700 to 6500 ° C. In the meantime, the pressure is about 0.3 to 0.6 Torr (t0rr). Subsequently, a nitride stone having a thickness of about 400 to 150 angstroms is deposited on the surface of the polycrystalline layer 52. Layer 5 4. The silicon nitride layer 54 can be deposited by a general CVD method. Since it is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be repeated. The silicon nitride layer 54 is used as a sacrificial layer. It will be removed during the process. Next, as shown in FIG. 3, a yellow light (lithography) process is performed to form a photoresist layer (not shown) on the surface of the nitrided layer 54.

It is preferably 100 Angstroms. . The photoresist layer is subsequently removed. The thicknesses of the surfaces of 58a and 58b and the nitrided layer 55 are about 5 Å. Then another CVD shallow trench 5 9 is uniformly settled to 50 to 200 angstroms, which is different from that shown in FIG. The nitride nitride layer 56 'forms a silicon nitride sidewall 60 on each side wall of the three-dimensional structures 58a and 58b. The bottom thickness of the silicon nitride sidewall 60 is about 70 to 120 angstroms. Then, an ion implantation process is performed, and a conductive dopant of a predetermined concentration is implanted into the silicon substrate 50 to form a doped region 62, which is used as a bit line or a buried drain. The ion implantation process uses arsenic ions with an energy of about 50 to 150 KeV and doses of 1E14 to 1E17 ions per square centimeter (ions / cm2), and is doped one or more times at a vertical angle at room temperature. Other N-type ions, such as phosphorus ions, are also applicable to the present invention. Next, as shown in Figure 5, a high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition (HDPCVD) process is performed to deposit a HDP stone oxide. Layer 64, and fill the shallow trench 5b.

Generally, the overgrinding time is between about 5 and 25 seconds. The surface of the residual HDP silicon oxide layer 64 polished by CMP may have a slight dishing phenomenon, but this phenomenon does not affect the present invention. Next, as shown in Figure 7A and Figure 7B (Figure 7b is a side view of Figure 7A), a wet etch process is performed, using phosphoric acid heated to 150-180 ° C ( phosphoric acid (3P04) solution as an etching solution, stripping the nitrided layer 54 completely. The wet etching process is performed in a groove (not shown), and the soaking time is about several tens of minutes, depending on the thickness of the nitrided layer 54. In addition, other wet etching methods that can effectively remove the silicon nitride layer 54 are also applicable to the present invention. A part of the silicon nitride sidewall 60 needs to be removed at the same time during this wet-etching process, so that the residual nitride nitride sidewall 60 remains at about 200 to 800 angstroms. The residual silicon nitride inverted wall 60 can be used as a stringer block in the subsequent process. As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B (FIG. 8B is a side view of FIG. 8A), a polycrystalline silicon layer 66 is formed on each of the polycrystalline silicon layers 52. The thickness of the polycrystalline silicon layer 66 is about 500-1200 Angstroms. The polycrystalline silicon layer 5 2 and the polycrystalline silicon layer 6 6 together constitute a floating gate 68 of the flash memory. The polycrystalline silicon layer 66 can be formed by using a commonly used CVD method, such as the LPCVD method, a yellow light process, and an etching process.
