Abstract

The invention relates to a shallow groove isolation formation method. The method comprises the following steps: a semiconductor substrate with a groove is provided; pad oxide layers are formed on the bottom part and the side wall of the groove, and in situ annealing is performed; insulation substance is filled into the groove. The shallow groove isolation formation method of the invention can reduce the transmission frequency of the substrate, reduce the pollution, ensures the process to be simplified, and reduces the cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for forming shallow trench isolation in a semiconductor manufacturing process. Background technique [0002] As the semiconductor manufacturing process develops to a process node with a small line width, the isolation process between semiconductor devices has also been developed from an early local oxidation process (LOCOS) to a shallow trench isolation (Shallow Trench Isolation, STI) process. The main steps of the shallow trench isolation process are: trench etching, insulator filling, grinding and planarization. Since the shallow trench isolation process directly affects the leakage current and other electrical properties between semiconductor devices on the semiconductor substrate, the industry always uses various methods to improve the performance of the shallow trench isolation. Chinese patent application No. 200410101523.1 discloses a method fo...
