Problems solved by technology

Although the hard mask avoids the bombardment denaturation and residual problems of the photoresist mask, it needs to deposit an additional dielectric film, and perform multi-step photolithography and etching, and the process is complex
The reasons why the hard mask is not suitable for HgCdTe devices are: 1) The deposition temperature of the hard mask layer is far beyond the temperature range (below 70°C) that the HgCdTe material can withstand, while the low temperature growth (2 , graphite, amorphous carbon, etc.) have a large lattice mismatch with HgCdTe materials, and the adhesion of the film is poor; 3) the hard mask requires multi-step photolithography and pattern etching, and the introduced pattern size There are many process errors, which makes it difficult to guarantee the pattern accuracy of the small-size implantation area

Abstract

The invention discloses a removal method of a composite mark for injecting high-energy particles. The mask is a composite photoresist mask with a three-layer structure; a photoresist mask pattern is manufactured between an injecting resisting layer dielectric film and a surface sacrificing dielectric film through the mask to be used as a high-energy particles injecting mask; two dielectric film etching agents for removing the composite mask are different; when removing the mask, the sacrificing dielectric film, the photoresist mask and the resisting layer dielectric film are sequentially removed. With the adoption of the composite mask, the problem that the photoresist mask is cracked and denatured under the attack of the high-energy particles can be avoided; in addition, the mask can be removed without residue; the cleanness of the surface of a chip is ensured, and the device performances can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to mask technology in microelectronic technology, in particular to a method for removing a compound mask structure used for HgCdTe high-energy ion implantation. Background technique [0002] Infrared focal plane array detectors based on mercury cadmium telluride photodiodes have been widely used in military security, resource exploration, ocean monitoring, and space remote sensing. According to the device structure, HgCdTe photodiodes can be divided into n-on-p type and p-on-n type. The n-on-p process has matured after decades of technology accumulation, and the short-wave infrared (SWIR) and mid-wave infrared (MWIR) HgCdTe FPA devices based on this process have already had high performance. However, for long-wave (LW) and very long-wave (VLW) devices, in order to obtain the spectral response of the corresponding band, the band gap of the HgCdTe base material must be further reduced (<90meV). In such a narrow bandgap, the tun...
