[0036] As described in the background art, existing dynamic random access memories still need to be improved. This will now be analyzed and explained in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0037] Figures 1 to 3 The present invention is a structural schematic diagram of each step of a method for forming a dynamic random access memory.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 A substrate 100 is provided, wherein the substrate 100 has a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 relative to each other, and the substrate 100 also has a plurality of separate active regions S1, wherein the active regions S1 extend in a first direction X, and wherein the active regions S1 have a plurality of independent channel regions S2 arranged along the first direction X.
[0039] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 A plurality of word line gate structures 120 are formed in each active region S1 . The plurality of word line gate structures 120 penetrate the active region S1 along a second direction (not marked in the figure). Each word line gate structure 120 is adjacent to one channel region S2 .
[0040] The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction X. The word line gate structure 120 includes a word line gate 121 and a word line gate dielectric layer 122 located between the word line gate and the channel region S2 .
[0041] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 , a plurality of capacitors 130 are formed on the first surface 101 , and each capacitor 130 is electrically connected to one channel region S2 .
[0042] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 A carrier wafer 140 is provided, and after forming a plurality of capacitors 130 , the carrier wafer 140 is bonded to the substrate 100 , with the carrier wafer 140 facing the first surface 101 .
[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 After bonding the carrier wafer 140 to the substrate 100 , the substrate 100 is flipped over, and the substrate 100 is thinned from the second surface 102 .
[0044] Please refer to Figure 3After thinning the substrate 100, a bit line material layer (not marked in the figure) is formed on the second surface 102; a bit line mask layer (not marked in the figure) is formed on the surface of the bit line material layer; the bit line material layer is etched using the bit line mask layer as a mask to form a plurality of bit lines 150 extending in the first direction X on the second surface 102, and the bit lines 150 are in contact with the surface of the channel region S2 of the second surface 102.
[0045] In the above method, before forming a plurality of bit lines 150 on the second surface 102, the active area S1, the word line gate structure 120 and other structures need to be formed on the first surface 101, and the carrier wafer 140 needs to be bonded toward the first surface 101, and the substrate 100 needs to be thinned from the second surface 102. Therefore, before forming the bit line patterning layer, the substrate 100 and the structure formed before forming the bit line patterning layer are affected by factors such as local stress caused by various process steps and the formed structure. The overall warping (such as Figure 4 As shown in FIG, the photolithography process for forming the bit line mask layer is difficult to align with the active area S1 pattern of the second surface 102 (i.e., the surface of the active area S1 exposed on the second surface 102). As a result, the formed bit line 150 is easily disconnected from the channel area S2, causing partial or complete failure of the memory and poor memory reliability.
[0046] To address the above technical issues, the present invention provides a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) and a method for forming the same. A substrate is provided, the substrate having a first surface and a second surface facing each other. The substrate includes a plurality of discrete active areas extending in a first direction and including a plurality of independent channel regions arranged along the first direction. Within each active area, a plurality of wordline gate structures are formed, each adjacent to a channel region. The plurality of wordline gate structures extend through the active area along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. After forming the plurality of wordline gate structures, a first device layer is formed on the first surface. A first dielectric layer is formed on the first device layer. A plurality of stress regulation structures are formed within the first dielectric layer. After forming the plurality of stress regulation structures, a second device layer is formed on the second surface. Consequently, warpage of the DRAM can be reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the DRAM.
[0047] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and beneficial effects of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0048] Figures 5 to 16 It is a structural diagram of each step in a method for forming a dynamic random access memory according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 yes Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the top view of the structure along the middle direction A, Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A schematic cross-sectional structure diagram along direction A1-A2 is provided, showing a substrate 200.
[0050] The substrate 200 has a first side 201 and a second side 202 opposite to each other.
[0051] The substrate 200 includes a plurality of separate active regions I. The active regions I extend in a first direction X. The active regions I include a plurality of independent channel regions II arranged along the first direction X.
[0052] The substrate 200 is made of semiconductor material.
[0053] In this embodiment, the substrate 200 is made of silicon. In other embodiments, the substrate material includes silicon carbide, silicon germanium, a multi-component semiconductor material composed of Group III-V elements, silicon-on-insulator (SOI), or germanium-on-insulator. The multi-component semiconductor material composed of Group III-V elements includes InP, GaAs, GaP, InAs, InSb, InGaAs, or InGaAsP.
[0054] In this embodiment, the method for forming the substrate 200 includes: providing an initial substrate (not labeled in the figure); forming a plurality of first isolation masks (not labeled in the figure) separated from each other on a surface of the initial substrate, wherein the first isolation masks extend along a first direction X, and the plurality of first isolation masks are arranged along a second direction Y; etching the initial substrate using the plurality of first isolation masks as masks to form a plurality of first isolation openings (not labeled in the figure) in the initial substrate, wherein the first isolation openings extend along the first direction X, the plurality of first isolation openings are arranged along the second direction Y, and the first surface 201 exposes the first isolation openings.
[0055] The second direction Y is perpendicular to the first direction X.
[0056] Thus, the substrate 200 is formed, and adjacent active regions I are separated by the first isolation openings.
[0057] In this embodiment, a first isolation structure 210 is provided between adjacent active regions I.
[0058] The material of the first isolation structure 210 includes a dielectric material, and the dielectric material includes silicon oxide or a low-K material (K is less than 3.9). The purpose of using the low-K material is to further reduce parasitic capacitance through the material with a low dielectric constant.
[0059] The method for forming the first isolation structure 210 includes: forming an isolation structure material layer in a plurality of first isolation openings and on the first surface 201, wherein the surface of the isolation structure material layer is higher than the first surface 201; flattening the isolation structure material layer until the first surface 201 is exposed, and forming the first isolation structure 210 in the first isolation openings.
[0060] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 yes Figure 8 Schematic diagram of the top view of the structure along the middle direction A, Figure 8 yes Figure 7 A schematic cross-sectional structure diagram along the center direction B1-B2 shows that a plurality of word line gate structures 220 are formed in each active area I, each word line gate structure 220 is adjacent to a channel area II, and the plurality of word line gate structures 220 penetrate the active area I along the second direction Y.
[0061] The word line gate structure 220 includes a gate 221 and a gate dielectric layer 222 located between the gate 221 and the substrate 200 .
[0062] In this embodiment, the method for forming a plurality of word line gate structures 220 includes: etching the first surface 201 and the plurality of first isolation structures 210 to form a plurality of word line gate openings (not marked in the figure) in the substrate 200 and the plurality of first isolation structures 210, wherein the channel region II is located between adjacent word line gate openings and is adjacent to at least one word line gate opening; forming a gate dielectric layer 222 on the inner wall surface of the word line gate opening; after forming the gate dielectric layer 222, forming a gate 221 in the word line gate opening.
[0063] In this embodiment, the gate 221 is a single layer and is made of, for example, polysilicon or metal.
[0064] In other embodiments, the gate is a composite gate, comprising a first gate and a second gate located on top of the first gate, wherein the first gate and the second gate are made of different materials. The first gate is made of a metal material, and the second gate structure is made of polysilicon. Because the gate comprises a first gate and a second gate made of different materials, the threshold voltage of the wordline gate structure can be adjusted by adjusting the volume ratio of the first gate and the second gate to meet different device design requirements.
[0065] In this embodiment, the gate dielectric layer 222 is made of silicon oxide or a low-K material.
[0066] In other embodiments, the material of the gate dielectric layer includes a high-K material (K greater than 3.9), and the high-K material includes aluminum oxide or hafnium oxide.
[0067] In this embodiment, the top surface of the gate 221 is lower than the first surface 201 . After the wordline gate structure 220 is formed, a capping dielectric layer 223 is formed in the wordline gate opening. The capping dielectric layer 223 is located on the top surface of the gate 221 .
[0068] The function of the covering dielectric layer 223 is to protect the word line gate structure 220, reduce damage to the word line gate structure 220 in subsequent processes, and ensure the insulation between the word line gate structure 220 and the first device layer formed subsequently to meet the circuit design requirements of the memory.
[0069] In this embodiment, the material of the covering dielectric layer 223 includes a dielectric material, and the dielectric material includes silicon oxide or a low-K material. The purpose of using the low-K material is to further reduce parasitic capacitance by using a material with a low dielectric constant.
[0070] In this embodiment, after forming the capping dielectric layer 223, a second isolation structure 224 is formed between adjacent wordline gate structures 220. The second isolation structure 224 is also located in the channel region II and is adjacent to one wordline gate structure 220. The second isolation structure 224 improves the insulation between adjacent wordline gate structures 220 in the first direction X to meet device design requirements.
[0071] Since the second isolation structure 224 is formed before the subsequent formation of the stress adjustment structure, the steps between the subsequent formation of the stress adjustment structure and the formation of the second device layer can be further reduced, so that the stress can be adjusted more accurately in the subsequent process to better reduce warping.
[0072] In other embodiments, the second isolation structure may be formed after the substrate 200 is subsequently thinned from the second surface 202 .
[0073] It should be noted that, for ease of understanding, Figure 7 The cover dielectric layer 223 is not shown.
[0074] It is important to understand that Figure 6 and Figure 7 The figure only schematically illustrates one arrangement of the wordline gate structures 220 and the second isolation structures 224. The wordline gate structures 220 and the second isolation structures 224 can be arranged in any other manner according to actual design requirements. The specific arrangement of the wordline gate structures 220 and the second isolation structures 224 should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0075] In this embodiment, after forming the capping dielectric layer 223 and before subsequently forming the first device layer, an ion implantation process is performed on the first surface 201 to implant dopant ions into the substrate 200, thereby forming a first doped region (not shown) exposed by the first surface 201 within the channel region II. The dopant ions in the first doped region include N-type ions or P-type ions. The N-type ions include phosphorus ions, arsenic ions, or antimony ions, and the P-type ions include boron ions, boron fluoride ions, or indium ions.
[0076] Next, please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 and Figure 8 In the same viewing direction, a first device layer 230 is formed on the first surface 201.
[0077] In this embodiment, the first device layer 230 includes: a plurality of capacitors 231 , each of the capacitors 231 being electrically connected to one of the channel regions II.

[0083] The material of the capacitor dielectric layer 231 b includes high-K materials such as titanium oxide, zirconium oxide, and hafnium oxide.
[0084] In this embodiment, the first device layer 230 further includes a first device dielectric layer 232 surrounding the plurality of capacitors 231 .
[0085] In this embodiment, the method for forming the first device layer 230 includes: forming a first device dielectric layer 232 on the first surface 201; etching the first device dielectric layer 232 to form a plurality of capacitor openings (not marked in the figure) in the first device dielectric layer 232, wherein the bottom of the capacitor openings exposes the surface of the first doped region; forming a first electrode layer 231a on the inner wall surfaces of the plurality of capacitor openings; forming a capacitor dielectric film (not marked in the figure) on the surface of the first electrode layer 231a and the surface of the first device dielectric layer 232, wherein the portion of the capacitor dielectric film located on the surface of the first electrode layer is the capacitor dielectric layer 231b; and forming a second electrode film (not marked in the figure) on the surface of the capacitor dielectric film, wherein the portion of the second electrode film located on the surface of the capacitor dielectric layer 231b is the second electrode layer 231c.
[0086] In other embodiments, the first device layer further includes: a plurality of capacitor conductive structures located between the first surface and the plurality of capacitors and surrounded by the first device dielectric layer, the top surface of each capacitor conductive structure being in contact with the capacitor, and the bottom surface of each capacitor conductive structure being in contact with the surface of the first doped region, thereby electrically connecting each capacitor to a channel region.
[0087] In another embodiment, the first device layer includes: a plurality of bit lines, each bit line being electrically connected to a plurality of channel regions within an active region; and a first device dielectric layer surrounding the plurality of bit lines.
[0088] Please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 and Figure 9 The viewing direction is consistent with that of FIG. 2 , and capacitor plates 240 are formed on the surfaces of the capacitors 231 . The surfaces of the capacitor plates 240 are higher than the surfaces of the capacitors 231 .
[0089] In this embodiment, the capacitor plate 240 includes: a first capacitor plate 241, the surface of which is higher than the surface of the second electrode film; and a second capacitor plate 242 located on the surface of the first capacitor plate 241. The first capacitor plate 241 is made of silicon, and the second capacitor plate 242 is made of tungsten.
[0090] The process of forming the capacitor plate 240 includes a chemical vapor deposition process, etc.
[0091] Please continue to refer to Figure 10 , forming a second dielectric layer 250 on the surface of the capacitor plate 240 .
[0092] In this embodiment, the second dielectric layer 250 is made of a dielectric material, and the dielectric material includes silicon oxide or a low-K (K less than 3.9) material.
[0093] The process of forming the second dielectric layer 250 includes a chemical vapor deposition process, etc.
[0094] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 and Figure 10 A second stress adjustment layer 260 is formed on the first device layer 230 in the same viewing direction. The second stress adjustment layer 260 is used to adjust the stress in the first direction X and the second direction Y at the same time.
[0095] Since the second stress adjustment layer 260 is formed before the subsequent formation of the first dielectric layer, a force opposite to the warping direction can be applied to the overall structure of the memory before the subsequent formation of the plurality of stress adjustment structures, thereby preliminarily reducing the overall warping of the memory structure in the first direction X and the second direction Y. Therefore, when the warping is more severe, not only is the degree of warping of the second surface 202 reduced, but the process difficulty and complexity of performing local stress adjustment using the plurality of stress adjustment structures is also reduced.
[0096] Specifically, on the one hand, the required second stress adjustment layer 260 can be formed to adjust the stress based on the warping of the formed structure and the warping predicted by experience, thereby reducing the more serious warping as a whole. On the other hand, since the overall stress adjustment is performed in advance through the second stress adjustment layer 260 before the local stress adjustment is performed through several stress adjustment structures in the future, the number of stress adjustment structures that need to be formed subsequently and the complexity of the structure can be reduced.
[0097] The material of the second stress adjustment layer 260 includes silicon oxide, silicon nitride, metal or polysilicon.
[0098] It should be understood that the material of the second stress-regulating layer 260 is selected based on the warping direction (i.e., the type of stress to be reduced or neutralized). For example, when neutralizing tensile stress in the structure, materials such as metal, polysilicon, and silicon nitride can be used; when neutralizing compressive stress in the structure, materials such as silicon oxide and silicon nitride can be used.
[0099] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second stress adjustment layer 260 is formed on the surface of the second dielectric layer 250 .
[0100] In another embodiment, the first device layer includes a plurality of bit lines and a first device dielectric layer, and the second stress adjustment layer is formed on the first device layer.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 , Figure 12 yes Figure 13 Schematic diagram of the top view of the structure along the middle direction A, Figure 13 yes Figure 12 A schematic cross-sectional structural diagram along the direction B1 - B2 shows that a first dielectric layer 270 is formed on the surface of the second stress adjustment layer 260 .
[0102] The material of the first dielectric layer 270 includes dielectric material.
[0103] Please continue to refer to Figure 12 and Figure 13 , a plurality of stress adjustment structures 271 are formed in the first dielectric layer 270 .
[0104] The material of the stress adjustment structure 271 is different from the material of the first dielectric layer 270 .
[0105] In this embodiment, the plurality of stress adjustment structures 271 include at least one of: a plurality of first adjustment structures 271 a extending along the second direction Y; and a plurality of second adjustment structures 271 b extending along the first direction Y.
[0106] The first adjustment structure 271a is used to cut off the stress in the first direction X to reduce the warping in the first direction X. The second adjustment structure 271b is used to cut off the stress in the second direction Y to reduce the warping in the second direction Y.
[0107] The material of the stress adjustment structure 271 includes silicon oxide, silicon nitride, metal or polysilicon.
[0108] Similar to the second stress regulation layer 260, the material of the stress regulation structure 271 is selected based on the warping direction (i.e., the type of stress to be reduced or neutralized).

[0119] Compared to this embodiment, in another embodiment, the second stress adjustment layer 260 is not formed before forming the first dielectric layer 270. Instead, the second stress adjustment layer is formed on the first dielectric layer and the stress adjustment structures after forming the plurality of stress adjustment structures and before subsequently forming the bonding dielectric layer. The second stress adjustment layer is used to adjust stress in the first direction and the second direction at the same time. Since the second stress adjustment layer is formed on the first dielectric layer and the stress adjustment structures after forming the plurality of stress adjustment structures, the stress adjustment capability can be further enhanced on the basis of stress adjustment by the plurality of stress adjustment structures.
