Problems solved by technology

like Figure 4 As shown, under the condition of dry etching, the oblique etching angle can usually be obtained by increasing the overpassivation of the side wall, but the general inclination angle will be greater than 45°, which may not meet the requirements of certain application fields in semiconductor process manufacturing

Abstract

The invention discloses a novel dry etching method, which comprises the following steps: forming a to-be-etched layer on a semiconductor substrate; forming a masking material on the to-be-etched layer; carrying out dry etching on the masking material and the to-be-etched layer; simultaneously carrying out lateral etching (parallel to the surface of the substrate) of a masking layer and longitudinal etching (vertical to the surface of the substrate) of the to-be-etched layer; and obtaining the inclination angle (the included angle between a slope surface and the surface of the substrate) of the corresponding etched slope surface by accurately controlling the speed ratio. The method can flexibly adjust the inclination angle of the etched slope surface within a large range (0-90 degrees), and especially has advantages in the field of the application with a small inclination angle (smaller than 20 degrees) of the etched slope surface in comparison with a conventional etching method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of manufacturing novel devices of semiconductor integrated circuits, and more specifically relates to an etching method. Background technique [0002] As we all know, thin film growth is a commonly used process in semiconductor manufacturing. It is a challenge to increase the step coverage of film growth on undulating surfaces. Gentle slopes are conducive to improving the coverage of growth on surfaces with steps and undulations. In particular, the step coverage of physical vapor deposition (PVD) process is lower than that of chemical vapor deposition (CVD), but PVD process has its own advantages over CVD process: PVD process adopts physical sputtering, and in principle, the grown film has The characteristics are consistent with the purity of the sputtering target material, but due to the chemical reaction involved in the CVD process, there are incomplete reactants or non-target by-products in the grown film to varyin...
