藉由氣相生長產生氮化矽薄膜的方法Method for producing a tantalum nitride film by vapor phase growth

本發明係關於產生氮化矽薄膜的方法,並且更特別地是關於藉由諸如化學氣相沈積(CVD,chemical vapor deposition)之氣相生長產生氮化矽薄膜的方法。The present invention relates to a method of producing a tantalum nitride film, and more particularly to a method of producing a tantalum nitride film by vapor phase growth such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD).

氮化矽膜具有極佳的阻障性質與極佳的抗氧化性,因而使用於微電子裝置製造(諸如作為蝕刻阻絕層、阻障層或閘極絕緣層)及氧化物/氮化物疊層中。Tantalum nitride film has excellent barrier properties and excellent oxidation resistance, and is therefore used in microelectronic device fabrication (such as as an etch stop layer, barrier layer or gate insulating layer) and an oxide/nitride stack. in.

電漿輔助CVD(PECVD,plasma-enhanced CVD)及低壓CVD(LPCVD,low-pressure CVD)為目前用於形成氮化矽膜的主要方法。Plasma-assisted CVD (PECVD) and low-pressure CVD (LPCVD) are the main methods currently used to form tantalum nitride films.

PECVD的進行通常係藉由在一對平行板電極間導入矽源(通常為矽烷)與氮源(通常為氨氣,但近來為氮氣),並在低溫(約350℃)與低壓(0.001 torr至5 torr)下,於該電極間施加高頻能量,以由矽源與氮源誘發電漿產生。在所形成之電漿中的活性矽物種與活性氮物種會彼此反應,而產生氮化矽薄膜。藉由PECVD而以該方式形成的氮化矽薄膜通常不具有化學計量組成且富含有氫,因而具有低薄膜密度、不佳的階梯覆蓋、快速蝕刻速率及不佳的熱穩定性。PECVD is usually carried out by introducing a helium source (usually decane) and a nitrogen source (usually ammonia, but more recently nitrogen) between a pair of parallel plate electrodes, and at low temperatures (about 350 ° C) and low pressure (0.001 torr). At 5 torr, high frequency energy is applied between the electrodes to induce plasma generation from the helium source and the nitrogen source. The active cerium species and the reactive nitrogen species in the formed plasma react with each other to produce a tantalum nitride film. The tantalum nitride film formed in this manner by PECVD generally does not have a stoichiometric composition and is rich in hydrogen, thus having low film density, poor step coverage, fast etch rate, and poor thermal stability.

LPCVD使用低壓(0.1至2 torr)與高溫(800℃至900℃),而產生品質優於PECVD所產生之氮化矽薄膜的氮化矽薄膜。目前,氮化矽通常藉由LPCVD而由二氯矽 烷與氣態氨的反應產生。然而,在該LPCVD過程中之二氯矽烷與氣態氨的反應會產生副產物氯化氨,該氯化氨會累積於反應器排氣管中並將其阻塞,且亦沈積於晶圓上。再者,現有的LPCVD技術具有氮化矽薄膜成長速率慢的缺點,並具有高熱預算。為降低產生氮化矽薄膜所需的熱預算,近來已發展出藉由將氨氣與六氯二矽烷(作為氮化矽前驅物)進行反應而產生氮化矽薄膜的方法。然而,該方法係因六氯二矽烷中存在有大量的氯而使前揭問題明顯加劇。該方法亦產生含矽微粒,此舉將使排氣管線的壽命實質地降低。最後,雖然該方法可在諸如600℃的反應溫度以極佳的生長速率提供高品質的氮化矽薄膜(良好的階梯覆蓋比例及低氯含量),但是當使用低於550℃的反應溫度時,這些性質會明顯地劣化。LPCVD uses low pressure (0.1 to 2 torr) and high temperature (800 ° C to 900 ° C) to produce a tantalum nitride film that is superior in quality to the tantalum nitride film produced by PECVD. Currently, tantalum nitride is usually made from dichloroguanidine by LPCVD. The reaction of an alkane with gaseous ammonia is produced. However, the reaction of methylene chloride with gaseous ammonia during the LPCVD process produces by-products, ammonium chloride, which accumulates in the reactor exhaust and blocks it and is also deposited on the wafer. Furthermore, the existing LPCVD technology has the disadvantage that the growth rate of the tantalum nitride film is slow and has a high thermal budget. In order to reduce the thermal budget required to produce a tantalum nitride film, a method of producing a tantalum nitride film by reacting ammonia gas with hexachlorodioxane (as a tantalum nitride precursor) has recently been developed. However, this method is significantly exacerbated by the presence of a large amount of chlorine in hexachlorodioxane. This method also produces ruthenium containing particles which will substantially reduce the life of the vent line. Finally, although the method can provide a high quality tantalum nitride film (good step coverage ratio and low chlorine content) at an excellent growth rate at a reaction temperature such as 600 ° C, when a reaction temperature lower than 550 ° C is used These properties will be significantly degraded.

已有人提出使用揮發性含碳矽氮烷、疊氮矽氮烷及胺基矽烷作為氮化矽前驅物,以解決前揭問題(參考非專利參考資料1與2)。然而,這些單獨使用或結合氨氣使用的氮化矽前驅物會使碳化矽和/或大量的碳摻入氮化矽薄膜產物中。It has been proposed to use volatile carbon-containing decane, azide and alkane as a cerium nitride precursor to solve the above problems (see Non-Patent References 1 and 2). However, these tantalum nitride precursors used alone or in combination with ammonia gas may incorporate niobium carbide and/or a large amount of carbon into the tantalum nitride film product.

本發明之具體實例Specific examples of the invention

本發明係更具體地說明如下。The present invention is more specifically described below.

與藉由諸如CVD之氣相生長過程產生氮化矽薄膜於基板上的方法有關的本發明係使用三甲矽烷基胺((H3 Si)3 N )和/或甲矽烷基聯胺作為氮化矽前驅物。這些前驅物係藉由與聯胺的氣相反應而產生氮化矽薄膜。在這些前驅物當中,甲矽烷基聯胺可藉由本身的熱分解而形成氮化矽薄膜。The present invention relating to a method for producing a tantalum nitride film on a substrate by a vapor phase growth process such as CVD uses trimethylsulfonylamine ((H 3 Si) 3 N ) and/or a mercaptoalkylamine as a nitride.矽Precursor. These precursors produce a tantalum nitride film by gas phase reaction with hydrazine. Among these precursors, the mercapto hydrazine can form a tantalum nitride film by thermal decomposition of itself.

本發明所使用的甲矽烷基聯胺包含有化學式(I)所定義的甲矽烷基聯胺H3 Si(Ra )N-N(Rb )Rc (I)The formazan hydrazine used in the present invention comprises a dimethyl hydrazine H 3 Si(R a )NN(R b )R c (I) as defined by the formula (I).

其中,Ra ,Rb 與Rc 係個別獨立地選自甲矽烷基、氫原子、甲基、乙基及苯基。Wherein R a , R b and R c are each independently selected from the group consisting of a methyl group, a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, an ethyl group and a phenyl group.

與前揭前驅物反應的聯胺包含有化學式(Ⅱ)所定義的聯胺H(R1 )N-N(R2 )R3 (Ⅱ)The hydrazine reacted with the previously disclosed precursor contains the hydrazine H(R 1 )NN(R 2 )R 3 (II) defined by the formula (II)

其中,R1 ,R2 與R3 係個別獨立地選自氫原子、甲基、乙基及苯基。Wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, an ethyl group and a phenyl group.

首先將說明藉由聯胺與前揭前驅物(CVD過程)的反應而產生氮化矽薄膜的方法。在此例中,將預製體氣體、聯胺氣體及視需要而選用的惰性稀釋氣體供給入容納有至少一個基板(特指諸如矽基板的半導體基板)的反應器內,並藉由預製體氣體與聯胺氣體間的反應而將氮化矽薄膜形成於該基板上。First, a method of producing a tantalum nitride film by a reaction of a hydrazine with a precursor (CVD process) will be described. In this case, a preform gas, a hydrazine gas, and optionally an inert diluent gas are supplied into a reactor containing at least one substrate (specifically, a semiconductor substrate such as a ruthenium substrate), and by a preform gas A tantalum nitride film is formed on the substrate by a reaction with a hydrazine gas.

在預製體氣體與聯胺氣體的反應期間,反應室內部可維持在0.1 torr至1,000 torr的壓力,而將反應室內維持在0.1 torr至10 torr的壓力為較佳。During the reaction of the preform gas with the hydrazine gas, the pressure inside the reaction chamber can be maintained at a pressure of 0.1 to rr to 1,000 torr, and it is preferred to maintain the pressure in the reaction chamber at a pressure of 0.1 to rr to 10 torr.

預製體氣體與聯胺氣體的反應通常可在不超過1,000 ℃的溫度(CVD反應溫度)下進行。然而,在低於300℃的溫度下幾乎無氮化矽產生。因此,預製體氣體與聯胺氣體的反應可在300℃至1,000℃進行。縱使在400℃至700℃的低溫下,該預製體與聯胺仍得以足夠高的生長速率(薄膜形成速率)產生氮化矽。此外,當CVD反應溫度為300℃至500℃時,縱使開口的縱橫比為10,其仍可獲得諸如至少約0.8的階梯覆蓋比例。階梯覆蓋比例可定義為位於接梯形體之最小膜厚除以位於平坦或平面區域之膜厚所獲得的數值。CVD反應溫度通常為靠近氮化矽形成於其上之基板的溫度。The reaction of the preform gas with the hydrazine gas can usually be no more than 1,000 The temperature is °C (CVD reaction temperature). However, almost no tantalum nitride is produced at temperatures below 300 °C. Therefore, the reaction of the preform gas with the hydrazine gas can be carried out at 300 ° C to 1,000 ° C. Even at a low temperature of 400 ° C to 700 ° C, the preform and the hydrazine are still capable of producing a tantalum nitride at a sufficiently high growth rate (film formation rate). Further, when the CVD reaction temperature is from 300 ° C to 500 ° C, even if the aspect ratio of the opening is 10, it is still possible to obtain a step coverage ratio such as at least about 0.8. The step coverage ratio can be defined as the value obtained by dividing the minimum film thickness of the trapezoidal body by the film thickness of the flat or planar region. The CVD reaction temperature is usually the temperature of the substrate on which the tantalum nitride is formed.

聯胺氣體與預製體氣體通常可以不超過100的聯胺/預製體流速比供給入反應室中。雖然當聯胺/預製體流速比超過100時仍可產生氮化矽,但是超過100的聯胺/預製體流速比通常為不經濟的。較佳的聯胺/預製體流速比數值為1至80。The hydrazine gas and the preformed gas can typically be fed into the reaction chamber at a hydrazine/preform flow rate ratio of no more than 100. Although tantalum nitride can be produced when the hydrazine/preform flow rate ratio exceeds 100, a hydrazine/preform flow rate ratio of more than 100 is generally uneconomical. Preferred hydrazine/preform flow ratio values are from 1 to 80.

以視需要而選用之方式輸入反應室內的惰性稀釋氣體可為諸如氮氣之惰性氣體或諸如氬氣之稀有氣體。The inert diluent gas input into the reaction chamber in a manner selected as needed may be an inert gas such as nitrogen or a rare gas such as argon.

因為本發明所使用的預製體或聯胺皆未含有氯,所以其反應並不會產生先前造成困擾的氯化銨副產物。再者,雖然本發明所使用的甲矽烷基聯胺和/或聯胺包含有含碳物種,但是縱使在使用該含碳物質的情況下,氮化矽產物中仍僅發現相當低的碳濃度。Since neither the preform nor the hydrazine used in the present invention contains chlorine, the reaction does not produce the previously troubled ammonium chloride by-product. Furthermore, although the formazan hydrazine and/or hydrazine used in the present invention contains a carbonaceous species, even in the case of using the carbonaceous material, only a relatively low carbon concentration is found in the tantalum nitride product. .

現將說明單獨使用甲矽烷基聯胺及利用其熱分解產生氮化矽薄膜的方法。在此例中,將甲矽烷基聯胺氣體及視 需要而選用的任何惰性稀釋氣體輸入反應室內,並藉由甲矽烷基聯胺的熱分解而產生氮化矽薄膜。如同前揭的CVD過程,反應室內的壓力可維持在0.1 torr至1,000 torr,而反應室內的壓力維持在0.1 torr至10 torr為較佳。A method of producing a tantalum nitride bismuth film alone and a thermal decomposition thereof to produce a tantalum nitride film will now be described. In this case, the methotrexate hydrazine gas and Any inert diluent gas selected as needed is fed into the reaction chamber and a tantalum nitride film is produced by thermal decomposition of the methyl hydrazine amide. As in the previously disclosed CVD process, the pressure in the reaction chamber can be maintained at 0.1 torr to 1,000 torr, and the pressure in the reaction chamber is preferably maintained at 0.1 torr to 10 torr.

如同前揭的CVD過程,通常可在300℃至1,000℃進行甲矽烷基聯胺氣體的分解。縱使在400℃至700℃的低溫下,該甲矽烷基聯胺分解仍得以足夠高的生長速率(薄膜形成速率)產生氮化矽。此外,當分解溫度為300℃至500℃時,仍可獲得高階梯覆蓋比例。As in the CVD process previously disclosed, the decomposition of the germyl hydrazine gas can generally be carried out at 300 ° C to 1,000 ° C. Even at a low temperature of 400 ° C to 700 ° C, the carzolidine hydrazine is decomposed to a sufficiently high growth rate (film formation rate) to produce tantalum nitride. Further, when the decomposition temperature is from 300 ° C to 500 ° C, a high step coverage ratio can still be obtained.

對於CVD過程與熱分解過程而言,該甲矽烷基聯胺氣體可預先製備或儲存於密封容器內直至使用為止,或者可當場進行合成,且含有合成甲矽烷基聯胺氣體的氣態反應混合物可輸入反應室內。將甲矽烷基胺氣體與聯胺氣體輸入合成室內,以進行甲矽烷基聯胺氣體的現場合成。此時,亦可將惰性稀釋氣體(諸如前揭可輸入反應室內的惰性稀釋氣體)與前揭反應氣體輸入合成室內。有關輸入甲矽烷基胺氣體與聯胺氣體於合成室內的條件部分,合成室內的壓力應維持在0.1至1,000 torr,且聯胺氣體/甲矽烷基胺氣體的流速比應為10至1,000。該二種氣體可在室溫至500℃的溫度下進行反應。甲矽烷基聯胺係藉此反應產生。其次,可藉由調壓器將合成室內所產生的含甲矽烷基聯胺氣態反應混合物進行壓力調整,並輸入前揭的反應室內。在此所使用的甲矽烷基胺包含有化學式(Ⅲ)所定義的甲矽烷基胺 (H3 Si)m N(H)3-m (Ⅲ)For the CVD process and the thermal decomposition process, the methotrexate hydrazine gas may be prepared in advance or stored in a sealed container until use, or may be synthesized on the spot, and the gaseous reaction mixture containing the synthetic methionine hydrazine gas may be Enter the reaction chamber. The methotrexate gas and the hydrazine gas are fed into the synthesis chamber for on-site synthesis of the methyl hydrazine hydrazine gas. At this time, an inert diluent gas (such as an inert diluent gas previously introduced into the reaction chamber) and a preliminary reaction gas may be introduced into the synthesis chamber. Regarding the conditions for the input of the methotrexate gas and the hydrazine gas in the synthesis chamber, the pressure in the synthesis chamber should be maintained at 0.1 to 1,000 torr, and the flow rate ratio of the hydrazine gas/formamidine gas should be 10 to 1,000. The two gases can be reacted at a temperature of from room temperature to 500 °C. The formylalkylamine is produced by this reaction. Secondly, the methotrexate-containing hydrazine-containing gaseous reaction mixture produced in the synthesis chamber can be pressure-regulated by a pressure regulator and input into the previously exposed reaction chamber. The formalkaneamine used herein comprises a methylideneamine (H 3 Si) m N(H) 3-m (III) as defined by the formula (III).

其中,m為從1至3的整數。輸入合成室內的聯胺包含有化學式(Ⅳ)所定義的聯胺 H(Rx )N-N(Ry )Rz (Ⅳ)Wherein m is an integer from 1 to 3. The hydrazine input into the synthesis chamber contains the hydrazine H(R x )NN(R y )R z (IV) defined by the formula (IV)

其中,Rx ,Ry 與Rz 係個別獨立地選自氫原子、甲基、乙基及苯基。Wherein R x , R y and R z are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a methyl group, an ethyl group and a phenyl group.

例如,可藉由甲矽烷基胺(Ⅲ)與聯胺(Ⅳ)的反應產生甲矽烷基聯胺(I)。For example, the formylalkylamine (I) can be produced by the reaction of a mercaptoalkylamine (III) with a hydrazine (IV).

實施例Example

本發明將藉由下列工作實施例而更詳細地進行說明,惟本發明並非僅限於這些工作實施例。The invention will be explained in more detail by the following working examples, but the invention is not limited to these working examples.

實施例1Example 1

本實施例使用具有實施例1所示結構的生產設備。在將進料流速為0.5 sccm或4 sccm的TSA氣體及進料流速為40 sccm的1,1-雙甲基聯胺(UDMH)氣體輸入容納有矽基板的反應室內時,於不同的CVD反應溫度(T)下將氮化矽薄膜產生於矽基板上。反應室內的壓力維持在1 torr。在該製程期間量測氮化矽沈積(生長)速率,並將 所獲得的數值對反應溫度(單位為K)倒數的1,000倍繪製於第5圖中。第5圖中的線段a為進料0.5 sccm TSA氣體(UDMH/TSA進料流速比=80)的結果圖,而線段b為進料4 sccm TSA氣體(UDMH/TSA進料流速比=10)的結果圖。This embodiment uses a production apparatus having the structure shown in Embodiment 1. When a TSA gas having a feed flow rate of 0.5 sccm or 4 sccm and a 1,1-bismethyl hydrazine (UDMH) gas having a feed flow rate of 40 sccm are input into a reaction chamber containing a ruthenium substrate, different CVD reactions are performed. A tantalum nitride film is formed on the tantalum substrate at a temperature (T). The pressure in the reaction chamber is maintained at 1 torr. Measure the rate of deposition (growth) of tantalum nitride during the process and The value obtained is plotted in Figure 5 for 1,000 times the reciprocal of the reaction temperature (in K). Line a in Figure 5 is the result of the feed 0.5 sccm TSA gas (UDMH/TSA feed flow ratio = 80), while line b is the feed 4 sccm TSA gas (UDMH/TSA feed flow ratio = 10) The result graph.

由第5圖的結果得知,氮化矽薄膜生長速率在較低UDMH/TSA進料流速比時會較高,並隨著反應溫度的增加而增加。然而,縱使在低達480℃的溫度下執行時,氮化矽薄膜的生長速率仍夠高。From the results of Fig. 5, it is known that the growth rate of the tantalum nitride film is higher at a lower UDMH/TSA feed flow rate ratio and increases as the reaction temperature increases. However, even when performed at temperatures as low as 480 ° C, the growth rate of the tantalum nitride film is still high enough.

所獲得之氮化矽薄膜的成分經歐傑(Auger)元素分析與橢圓儀量測發現為Si0.8-0.9 N。在80之UDMH/TSA進料流速比下所製備的氮化矽薄膜的碳含量僅為3重量%。藉由0.25%水性氟化氫之各個氮化矽薄膜的蝕刻速率在所有狀況中皆為30-50埃/分鐘,其係實質地低於PECVD氮化矽薄膜的蝕刻速率。The composition of the obtained tantalum nitride film was found to be Si 0.8-0.9 N by Auger elemental analysis and ellipsometry. The carbon nitride content of the tantalum nitride film prepared at a feed rate ratio of UDMH/TSA of 80 was only 3% by weight. The etch rate of each tantalum nitride film by 0.25% aqueous hydrogen fluoride is 30-50 angstroms/minute in all cases, which is substantially lower than the etch rate of the PECVD tantalum nitride film.

在本實施例中,反應室內的氣態反應混合物亦以傅力葉轉換紅外線光譜(FTIR,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy)進行分析。在二個UDMH/TSA進料流速比下,其已證實:(a)TSA之二個主峰值(在約947 cm-1 的峰值為SiN鍵結,而在約2172 cm-1 的峰值為SiH鍵結)的強度比(I(947)/I(2172))會發生變化(見第6圖),以及(b)SiH鍵結的峰值會由2172 cm-1 遷移至2163 cm-1 。該結果證實雙甲矽烷基甲基聯胺(SiH3 )2 N-N(CH3 )2 係於大於或等於450℃下藉由TSA與UDMH的反應而產生。與 本實施例中之氮化矽薄膜產生有關的關係與合成為:(I)甲矽烷基聯胺可作用為前驅物;(Ⅱ)甲矽烷基聯胺可藉由甲矽烷基胺與聯胺的反應而產生;以及(Ⅲ)可使用藉由甲矽烷基胺與聯胺之反應而產生的含甲矽烷基聯胺氣態反應混合物形成氮化矽。In this embodiment, the gaseous reaction mixture in the reaction chamber is also analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). At two UDMH/TSA feed flow ratios, it has been confirmed that: (a) the two main peaks of TSA (the peak at about 947 cm -1 is SiN bonding, and the peak at about 2172 cm -1 is SiH) The intensity ratio of the bond (I(947)/I(2172)) changes (see Figure 6), and (b) the peak of the SiH bond migrates from 2172 cm -1 to 2163 cm -1 . This result confirmed that the bis-decylalkylmethylamine (SiH 3 ) 2 NN(CH 3 ) 2 was produced by the reaction of TSA with UDMH at 450 ° C or higher. The relationship and synthesis related to the production of the tantalum nitride film in the present embodiment are as follows: (I) the methylidene hydrazine can act as a precursor; (II) the methylidene hydrazine can be obtained by the formylamine and the hydrazine. And (III) forming a tantalum nitride using a gaseous reaction mixture containing a methyl hydrazine alkylamine produced by the reaction of a mercaptoalkylamine with a hydrazine.

實施例2Example 2

使用具有第1圖所示結構的生產設備,在不同反應溫度下,在容納有矽基板的反應室內形成氮化矽薄膜,其中該矽基板上形成有縱橫比(深度/直徑)為10的溝渠(直徑:0.6微米)。以40 sccm的流速輸入UDMH;以4 sccm的流速輸入TSA氣體;以及反應室內的壓力為1 torr。在不同溫度下所獲得之氮化矽薄膜的階梯覆蓋比係以掃瞄式電子顯微鏡(SEM,scanning electron microscopy)進行量測,且其結果示於第7圖中。Using a production apparatus having the structure shown in FIG. 1, a tantalum nitride film is formed in a reaction chamber containing a tantalum substrate at a different reaction temperature, wherein a trench having an aspect ratio (depth/diameter) of 10 is formed on the tantalum substrate. (Diameter: 0.6 microns). UDMH was fed at a flow rate of 40 sccm; TSA gas was fed at a flow rate of 4 sccm; and the pressure in the reaction chamber was 1 torr. The step coverage ratio of the tantalum nitride film obtained at different temperatures was measured by a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the results are shown in Fig. 7.

第7圖的結果不僅顯示藉由建立500℃的反應溫度可提高氮化矽薄膜產物的階梯覆蓋比,並可預測藉由將反應溫度設定在更低數值便可進一步提高階梯覆蓋比。The results of Fig. 7 show not only that the step coverage ratio of the tantalum nitride film product can be improved by establishing a reaction temperature of 500 ° C, but also that the step coverage ratio can be further improved by setting the reaction temperature to a lower value.

本發明已藉由不同具體實例與工作實施例而說明如上,但本發明並非僅限於此。可將前揭的不同具體實例結合使用。The present invention has been described above by way of various specific examples and working examples, but the invention is not limited thereto. Different specific examples of the foregoing can be used in combination.

如前所述,本發明的方法不會伴隨產生氯化銨,不會有明顯的含碳污染物摻入薄膜產物中,且縱使在相當低的 溫度下亦可產生具有較佳薄膜性質的氮化矽薄膜。As stated previously, the process of the present invention does not concomitantly produce ammonium chloride, and no significant carbonaceous contaminants are incorporated into the film product, and even at relatively low levels. A tantalum nitride film having better film properties can also be produced at a temperature.
