Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1) It is difficult to distinguish the pattern of the test structure (test structure) under the optical microscope (optical system), and because the size of the polysilicon gate and the tip of the probe are small, and the broadband of the probe tip relative to the polysilicon gate is relatively large Large, which makes it very difficult to align during testing
[0006] 2) It is easy to cause sample damage (sample damage)
[0008] 4) P-type doped wafers can only be used in the measurement process of the capacitance of NMOS devices (with P substrates)

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to an electrical performance test structure and a manufacturing method and an electrical performance testing process of the electrical performance test structure. The electrical performance testing process can be applied to testing of electrical performance of a gate oxide before manufacturing of an interlayer dielectric layer and before a back-end process. Namely, a micro pad connected with the gate oxide and a substrate is arranged on the electrical performance test structure with a grid electrode, the testing process difficulty is greatly lowered, and on the premise of not damaging a wafer substrate, the electrical performance test on the gate oxide of an NMOS component and a PMOS component is achieved, so that test samples are prevented from being damaged, the test efficiency is greatly improved, and the process cost is effectively lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor device testing, in particular to an electrical testing structure, a preparation method thereof, and an electrical testing process. Background technique [0002] In the manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, according to some special needs, before the formation of the interlayer dielectric layer (Inter Layer Dielectrics, ILD for short), sometimes it is necessary to measure the prepared test pad (probing pad) The electrical properties of the gate oxide. [0003] Traditional methods for measuring the gate oxide layer mainly include nanoprobe measurement method (Nano prober) and manual measurement method (Manual prober); however, the gate oxide layer of the prepared semiconductor device is During electrical measurement, the wafer needs to be broken when preparing samples, and the test time for preparing samples and nanoprobes is very long (long time for sample preparation), which takes...
