However, the present disclosure can have other embodiments in addition to those described in detail below.
[0023] At present, the capacitance adjustment of the capacitor structure usually uses a fuse or one-time programmable (OTP). In a first aspect, the above-mentioned method for adjusting the capacitance of the capacitor structure increases the processing complexity and the size and manufacturing cost of the chip. In a second aspect, the fuse or one-time programmable is a one-time permanent adjustment and cannot realize dynamic adjustment of the capacitance of the capacitor structure.
[0024] According to the capacitance calculation formula of the capacitor structure, the capacitance of the capacitor structure is affected by the facing area between the first electrode and the second electrode, the spacing between the first electrode and the second electrode, and the dielectric constant of the dielectric layer between the first electrode and the second electrode. The greater the facing area between the first electrode and the second electrode, the smaller the spacing between the first electrode and the second electrode, and the smaller the dielectric constant of the dielectric layer between the first electrode and the second electrode, the greater the capacitance of the capacitor structure. That is, after the physical structure of the capacitor structure is determined, the capacitance of the capacitor structure can be determined.
[0025] In view of this, in order to solve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems, this disclosure provides a capacitor structure and a method for adjusting the capacitance value of the capacitor structure.
[0026] Here, we first define the various directions that may be involved in the following text. The stacking direction of the conductive structures is defined as the first direction (i.e., direction D1), the arrangement direction of the first and second conductive patterns in the same conductive structure is defined as the second direction (i.e., direction D2), and the extension direction of the first connecting part (or, the second connecting part) is defined as the third direction (i.e., direction D3); wherein, direction D2 and direction D1 are perpendicular to each other, direction D3 and direction D1 are perpendicular to each other, and direction D3 and direction D2 intersect. In some embodiments, direction D2 and direction D3 are perpendicular to each other, and this will be used as an example in the following explanation.
[0027] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the capacitor structure provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the present disclosure provides a capacitor structure 100, which includes n conductive structures 102 stacked along the D1 direction. Each conductive structure 102 includes a first conductive pattern 108 and a second conductive pattern 120 arranged along the D2 direction. The first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 in each conductive structure 102 form an interdigitated structure. The two first conductive patterns 108 in two adjacent conductive structures 102 arranged along the D1 direction at least partially overlap, and the two second conductive patterns 120 in two adjacent conductive structures 102 arranged along the D1 direction at least partially overlap. n is an integer greater than 1.
[0028] Here, n conductive structures 102 are stacked along the D1 direction, and from top to bottom they are: conductive structure M1, conductive structure M2, conductive structure M3, ... and conductive structure Mn. Figure 1 The capacitor structure 100 described herein includes five conductive structures 102 stacked along the D1 direction, which is exemplified but does not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this disclosure. The capacitor structure 100 provided in the embodiments of this disclosure may include, for example, three, six, seven, or other numbers of conductive structures 102.
[0029] Here, in the same conductive structure 102, the MOM capacitor can be formed between the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120. The orthographic projection of any two first conductive patterns 108 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction on the D2D3 plane at least partially overlaps, and any two first conductive patterns 108 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction have a certain facing area. That is, the MIM capacitor can be formed between any two first conductive patterns 108 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction. The orthographic projection of any two second conductive patterns 120 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction on the D2D3 plane at least partially overlaps, and any two second conductive patterns 120 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction have a certain facing area. That is, the MIM capacitor can also be formed between any two second conductive patterns 120 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction.
[0030] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in a first aspect, the capacitor structure 100 includes a MOM capacitor and a MIM capacitor. In the same conductive structure 102, the MOM capacitor is formed between the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120. The MIM capacitor is formed between any two conductive structures 102 arranged adjacent to each other in the D1 direction. In this way, the density of the capacitor structure 100 can be increased. In a second aspect, n first voltages can be applied to the n first conductive patterns 108 respectively, and n second voltages can be applied to the n second conductive patterns 120 respectively. By adjusting the n first voltages and the n second voltages, the total capacitance of the capacitor structure 100 can be dynamically adjusted, and the flexibility of circuit design and use can be increased.
[0031] In some embodiments, the n conductive structures 102 include a first conductive structure 104 and a second conductive structure 106 arranged opposite to each other in the D1 direction. Here, the first conductive structure 104 and the second conductive structure 106 are respectively located at two ends of the capacitor structure 100 arranged opposite to each other in the D1 direction.
[0032] Here, the first conductive structure 104 can be the conductive structure at the bottom of the capacitor structure 100, and the second conductive structure 106 can be the conductive structure at the top of the capacitor structure 100. For example, the first conductive structure 104 can be the conductive structure Mn, and the second conductive structure 106 can be the conductive structure M1, Figure 1 The above is described taking this case as an example.
[0033] Here, the first conductive structure can be the conductive structure at the top of the capacitor structure, and the second conductive structure can be the conductive structure at the bottom of the capacitor structure. For example, the first conductive structure can be the conductive structure M1, and the second conductive structure can be the conductive structure Mn.
[0034] Here, the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 in the same conductive structure 102 have the same height position along the D1 direction. For example, the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 in the conductive structure M3 have the same height position along the D1 direction.
[0035] In some embodiments, the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 can include a conductive material, including but not limited to at least one of tungsten (W), copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), and polysilicon (Poly).
[0036] In some embodiments, the capacitance structure 100 further includes a first dielectric layer, the first dielectric layer being located between the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 in the same conductive structure 102.
[0037] In some embodiments, the capacitance structure 100 further includes a second dielectric layer, the second dielectric layer being located between any two conductive structures 102 arranged adjacently along the D1 direction.
[0038] In some embodiments, the first dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer can include a dielectric material, including but not limited to silicon oxide.
[0039] In some embodiments, the process of forming the first conductive pattern 108, the second conductive pattern 120, the first dielectric layer, and the second dielectric layer can include but not limited to chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), or any combination thereof.
[0040] Exemplarily, forming the conductive structure 102 can include the following steps: etching the first layer of the first dielectric layer by using a mask plate to form a first recess and a second recess; filling the conductive material in the first recess and the second recess to form the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 respectively; forming the first layer of the second dielectric layer covering the first layer of the first dielectric layer, the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120; at this time, the first layer of the conductive structure 102, for example, the conductive structure M1, can be formed. Forming the second layer of the first dielectric layer covering the first layer of the second dielectric layer; etching the second layer of the first dielectric layer by using a mask plate to form a third recess and a fourth recess; filling the conductive material in the third recess and the fourth recess to form the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 respectively; forming the second layer of the second dielectric layer covering the second layer of the first dielectric layer, the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120; at this time, the second layer of the conductive structure 102, for example, the conductive structure M2, can be formed. The third layer of the first dielectric layer can be continuously formed, and the conductive structure 102 can be formed in the third layer of the first dielectric layer until n conductive structures 102 stacked along the D1 direction are formed.
[0041] Here, the first layer of the first dielectric layer and the second layer of the first dielectric layer are the first dielectric layer between the first conductive pattern 108 and the second conductive pattern 120 in the same conductive structure 102, and the first layer of the second dielectric layer and the second layer of the second dielectric layer are the second dielectric layer between two conductive structures 102 arranged adjacent along the D1 direction.
[0042] In some embodiments, there is no direct electrical connection between the n first conductive patterns 108 stacked along the D1 direction, and n first voltages can be applied to the n first conductive patterns 108 respectively, which can be the same or different; there is no direct electrical connection between the n second conductive patterns 120 stacked along the D1 direction, and n second voltages can be applied to the n second conductive patterns 120 respectively, which can be the same or different.
[0043] That is, the capacitance structure 100 is controlled by n voltage groups, each of which includes a first voltage and a second voltage. Each voltage group and each conductive structure 102 correspond one-to-one, a first voltage in each voltage group is applied to the first conductive pattern 108, and a second voltage in each voltage group is applied to the second conductive pattern 120. The first voltage applied to the first conductive pattern 108 in the same conductive structure 102 and the second voltage applied to the second conductive pattern 120 can be the same or different, the n first voltages applied to the n first conductive patterns 108 respectively can be the same or different, and the n second voltages applied to the n second conductive patterns 120 respectively can be the same or different.
[0044] In some embodiments, the capacitor structure 100 further includes: n first contact structures, each of which is electrically connected to n first conductive patterns 108; and n second contact structures, each of which is electrically connected to n second conductive patterns 120.
[0045] Here, the n first conductive patterns 108 stacked along the D1 direction are not directly electrically connected, meaning they are not sequentially connected by conductive wires, and the same voltage is applied to all n first conductive patterns 108. Similarly, the n second conductive patterns 120 stacked along the D1 direction are not directly electrically connected, meaning they are not sequentially connected by conductive wires, and the same voltage is applied to all n second conductive patterns 120. The n first conductive patterns 108 can each be led out with electrical signals through n first contact structures, and the n second conductive patterns 120 can each be led out with electrical signals through n second contact structures. In other words, the n first voltages applied to the n first conductive patterns 108 through the n first contact structures can be the same or different, and the n second voltages applied to the n second conductive patterns 120 through the n second contact structures can be the same or different. This allows for more flexible and adjustable voltage application to the n first conductive patterns 108 and n second conductive patterns 120.
[0046] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a top view schematic diagram of the conductive structure provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the first conductive pattern 108 includes: a first comb pattern 110, the first comb pattern 110 including a plurality of first teeth 112 extending along the D2 direction; the second conductive pattern 120 includes: a second comb pattern 122, the second comb pattern 122 including a plurality of second teeth 124 extending along the D2 direction; the first teeth 112 of the first comb pattern 110 and the second teeth 124 of the second comb pattern 122 are staggered along the D3 direction; wherein, in the same conductive structure 102 (e.g., the first conductive structure 104), the number of first teeth 112 included in the first comb pattern 110 and the number of second teeth 124 included in the second comb pattern 122 are the same.
[0047] In other embodiments, in the same conductive structure 102, the number of first teeth 112 included in the first comb pattern 110 and the number of second teeth 124 included in the second comb pattern 122 are different. For example, the difference between the number of first teeth 112 included in the first comb pattern 110 and the number of second teeth 124 included in the second comb pattern 122 is 1.
[0048] here, Figure 2The first comb pattern 110 includes three first teeth 112, and the second comb pattern 122 includes three second teeth 124, which are exemplified but do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this disclosure. The first comb pattern 110 provided in the embodiments of this disclosure may include two, four, five, or other numbers of first teeth 112, and the second comb pattern 122 may include two, four, five, or other numbers of second teeth 124.
[0049] Here, each first tooth 112 extends along the D2 direction, and multiple first teeth 112 are parallel to each other and spaced apart along the D3 direction. Each second tooth 124 extends along the D2 direction, and multiple second teeth 124 are parallel to each other and spaced apart along the D3 direction. Here, the first teeth 112 and the second teeth 124 are parallel to each other, and the first teeth 112 and the second teeth 124 are alternately arranged along the D3 direction.
[0050] Here, the orthographic projections of the first tooth 112 and the second tooth 124 arranged adjacent to each other along the D3 direction on the D1D2 plane at least partially overlap, and the first tooth 112 and the second tooth 124 arranged adjacent to each other along the D3 direction have a certain facing area, which can form a MOM capacitor.
[0051] In some embodiments, the orthographic projections of the first tooth 112 and the second tooth 124, which are arbitrarily adjacent along the D3 direction, coincide on the D1D2 plane.
[0052] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the number of first teeth 112 included in the two first comb patterns 110 of two conductive structures 102 arranged arbitrarily adjacent to each other along the D1 direction is the same, and the number of second teeth 124 included in the two second comb patterns 122 of two conductive structures 102 arranged arbitrarily adjacent to each other along the D1 direction is the same.
[0053] Here, the orthographic projections of two first teeth 112 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction on the D2D3 plane at least partially overlap, and there is a certain facing area between the two first teeth 112 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction. A MIM capacitor can be formed between the two first teeth 112 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction. Similarly, the orthographic projections of two second teeth 124 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction on the D2D3 plane at least partially overlap, and there is a certain facing area between the two second teeth 124 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction. A MIM capacitor can be formed between the two second teeth 124 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction.
[0054] like Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, the first conductive pattern 108 further includes: a first connecting portion 118 extending along the D3 direction; the first tooth 112 includes a first end portion 114 and a second end portion 116 disposed opposite to each other along the D2 direction, and the first end portion 114 of the plurality of first teeth 112 is connected to the first connecting portion 118; the second conductive pattern 120 further includes: a second connecting portion 130 extending along the D3 direction; the second tooth 124 includes a third end portion 126 and a fourth end portion 128 disposed opposite to each other along the D2 direction, and the third end portion 126 of the plurality of second teeth 124 is connected to the second connecting portion 130; wherein, the second end portion 116 of the plurality of first teeth 112 faces the second connecting portion 130, and the fourth end portion 128 of the plurality of second teeth 124 faces the first connecting portion 118. Figure 2 The four dashed circles in the middle represent the first end 114, the second end 116, the third end 126, and the fourth end 128, respectively.
[0055] Here, the first tooth 112 is located between two adjacent second teeth 124 arranged along the D3 direction, and the second tooth 124 is also located between two adjacent first teeth 112 arranged along the D3 direction. The first end 114 of the first tooth 112 is connected to the first connecting portion 118, and there is a certain distance between the second end 116 of the first tooth 112 and the second connecting portion 130; the third end 126 of the second tooth 124 is connected to the second connecting portion 130, and there is a certain distance between the fourth end 128 of the second tooth 124 and the first connecting portion 118.
[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the projections of two first conductive patterns 108 in two conductive structures 102 arranged arbitrarily adjacent to each other along the D1 direction on a plane perpendicular to the D1 direction (i.e., the D2D3 plane) coincide; the projections of two second conductive patterns 120 in two conductive structures 102 arranged arbitrarily adjacent to each other along the D1 direction on a plane perpendicular to the D1 direction (i.e., the D2D3 plane) coincide.
[0057] Here, the projections of two first conductive patterns 108 arranged arbitrarily adjacent along the D1 direction coincide, meaning that the area facing each other is larger, which is beneficial for increasing the capacitance value of the capacitor structure.
