[0072] The semiconductor contact structure in the related art has the problem that the mask pattern is easy to drift. The inventor has found that the reason is that the middle film layer of the mask pattern and the conductive layer are made of the same material, and the conductive properties of the middle film layer and the conductive layer of the mask pattern can be improved by annealing. During annealing, the middle film layer and the conductive layer of the mask pattern melt and flow, causing the top film layer above the middle film layer of the mask pattern to collapse, that is, the top film layer of the mask pattern drifts, and the contour of the mask pattern changes, affecting the alignment of subsequent processes and the performance of the semiconductor structure.
[0073] To this end, the present disclosure provides a semiconductor structure, wherein an isolation layer is formed at least on the sidewall of the mask pattern, thereby isolating the mask pattern from the first conductive layer. The isolation layer limits the mask pattern, preventing the mask pattern and the first conductive layer from melting and flowing during annealing, thereby preventing the mask pattern from drifting, and ensuring the contour of the mask pattern.
[0074] In addition, the distance between two adjacent mask patterns in adjacent rows is smaller than the distance between two adjacent mask patterns in the same row, and smaller than the distance between two mask patterns that are opposite to each other in alternate rows. The isolation layers on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns in adjacent rows and the corresponding bosses are in contact, and the isolation layers on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns in the same row and the corresponding bosses, and on the side walls of two mask patterns that are opposite to each other in alternate rows, enclose a filling hole. On the one hand, the isolation layer forms a whole, improving the stability of the isolation layer, and on the other hand, the isolation layer fills a smaller gap, and the manufacturing difficulty is low.
[0075] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more obvious and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.
[0076] See also Figure 1 The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor structure, which specifically includes the following steps:
[0077] Step S100: forming a plurality of mask patterns that are spaced apart and arranged in an array on a substrate, wherein in any three adjacent rows of mask patterns, a distance between two adjacent mask patterns in adjacent rows is smaller than a distance between two adjacent mask patterns in the same row, and smaller than a distance between two mask patterns that are opposite to each other in alternate rows.
[0078] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The substrate 10 provides support for the structure thereon, and may include a semiconductor substrate 14 and a third protective layer 15 covering the semiconductor substrate 14. The third protective layer 15 is provided to prevent the surface of the semiconductor substrate 14 from being exposed and oxidized. The semiconductor substrate 14 may be a silicon substrate, a germanium substrate, a gallium nitride substrate, a silicon on insulator substrate (Silicon On Insulator, SOI for short), etc., and the third protective layer 15 may be a silicon oxide layer.
[0079] The mask pattern 20 is formed on the substrate 10. There are a plurality of mask patterns 20. The plurality of mask patterns 20 are arranged at intervals and in an array, that is, the plurality of mask patterns 20 are arranged in a plurality of rows and columns. The column direction can be a first direction ( Figure 2 The X direction is shown, for example, the bit line extension direction), that is, each column of mask patterns 20 is arranged at intervals along the first direction. The row direction is the second direction ( Figure 2 The Y direction shown is, for example, the word line extension direction), that is, each row of mask patterns 20 is arranged at intervals along the second direction.
[0080] Exemplarily, the mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows are staggered, and the mask patterns 20 in alternate rows that are opposite to each other form a column of mask patterns 20, that is, the mask patterns 20 in alternate rows are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction. The projections of the mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows in the first direction only partially overlap, and the projections of the mask patterns 20 in the first direction completely overlap. A row of mask patterns 20 between the alternate mask patterns 20 is located at the center axis extending along the second direction between the two alternate mask patterns 20, and the mask pattern 20 located at the center axis is located at the center of the four adjacent mask patterns 20 in its adjacent row, so that the multiple mask patterns 20 are arranged approximately in a hexagonal manner, so as to increase the arrangement density of the mask patterns 20, and expose the active areas between the multiple mask patterns 20 to form a bit line contact structure arranged approximately in a hexagonal manner, thereby improving the space utilization of the semiconductor structure.
[0081] In any three adjacent rows of mask patterns 20, the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows is smaller than the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in the same row, and smaller than the distance between two mask patterns 20 opposite to each other in alternate rows. That is, among a plurality of adjacent mask patterns 20, the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows is the smallest, and the aspect ratio is the largest, and the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in the same row and the distance between two mask patterns 20 opposite to each other in alternate rows may be equal.
[0082] Among them, two mask patterns 20 adjacent to each other in adjacent rows refer to a mask pattern 20 in a row of mask patterns 20 and a mask pattern 20 that is closest to the mask pattern 20 in the adjacent row of mask patterns 20. Each mask pattern 20 may be adjacent to one, two or four adjacent rows of mask patterns 20. Mask patterns 20 in the same row are arranged along the second direction, and two mask patterns 20 opposite to each other in alternate rows are arranged along the first direction.
[0083] Step S200: using the mask pattern as a mask, etching the substrate to form a boss corresponding to the mask pattern and a contact groove surrounding the boss in the substrate.
[0084] Continue reading Figure 2 Hehe Figure 3, using the mask pattern 20 as a mask, the exposed substrate 10 is etched to form a boss 12 and a contact groove 13 in the substrate 10. The boss 12 corresponds to the mask pattern 20 to transfer the pattern of the mask pattern 20 to the substrate 10.
[0085] There may be a plurality of bosses 12, and the arrangement of the plurality of bosses 12 is the same as the arrangement of the plurality of mask patterns 20, that is, each boss 12 corresponds to a mask pattern 20 and is located directly below the corresponding mask pattern 20. The contact groove 13 surrounds the boss 12, that is, the boss 12 is located in the contact groove 13, so that the plurality of bosses 12 are spaced apart. The cross section of the boss 12 is a regular trapezoid, and the cross section of the contact groove 13 is an inverted trapezoid.
[0086] Step S300: An isolation layer is formed on the side wall of each mask pattern and boss, the isolation layers on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns and corresponding bosses in adjacent rows are in contact with each other, and the isolation layers on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns and corresponding bosses in the same row and on the side walls of two mask patterns and corresponding bosses opposite to each other in alternate rows enclose a filling hole, and the filling hole exposes the substrate.
[0087] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the mask pattern 20 and the boss 12 thereunder are the corresponding mask pattern 20 and boss 12. An isolation layer 30 is deposited on the sidewalls of each mask pattern 20 and boss 12. The top surface of the isolation layer 30 may be flush with the top surface of the mask pattern 20, and the material of the isolation layer 30 may include silicon nitride or silicon nitride oxide. By covering the isolation layer 30 on the sidewalls of the mask pattern 20, the isolation layer 30 surrounds and isolates the mask pattern 20 and provides support, thereby ensuring the independence of the mask pattern 20 during the subsequent annealing process, avoiding the melting drift of the mask pattern 20, and thus ensuring the accuracy of the position and morphology of the mask pattern 20.
[0088] The isolation layer 30 on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns 20 and corresponding bosses 12 in adjacent rows is in contact, and the isolation layer 30 is filled between the two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows, and is filled between the two adjacent bosses 12 in adjacent rows. The isolation layer 30 on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns 20 and bosses 12 in the same row, and on the side walls of two mask patterns 20 and bosses 12 opposite to each other in alternate rows, encloses a filling hole 31, and the filling hole 31 exposes the substrate 10.
[0089] It can be understood that the corresponding mask pattern 20 and the boss 12 form a column, and the isolation layer 30 is deposited on the side wall of each column, and the isolation layer 30 is filled between two adjacent columns in an adjacent row. The isolation layer 30 on the side walls of two adjacent columns in a row and the isolation layer 30 on the side walls of two opposite columns in alternate rows enclose a filling hole 31.
[0090] By contacting the isolation layer 30 on the side wall of the boss 12 with two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows, on the one hand, the isolation layer 30 forms a whole, improving the stability of the isolation layer 30, and ensuring the stability of the overall structure of multiple mask patterns 20. On the other hand, the isolation layer 30 fills the gap between the two adjacent mask patterns 20 and the boss 12 in the adjacent rows, thereby filling up the smaller gap between the adjacent mask patterns 20 and the smaller gap between the adjacent bosses 12, reducing the difficulty of filling.
[0091] Step S400: forming a first conductive layer, wherein the first conductive layer covers the side surfaces of the isolation layer and completely fills the filling hole.
[0092] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 , at least a first conductive layer 40 is formed in the filling hole 31, for example, the first conductive layer 40 can be formed by an epitaxial growth process, the first conductive layer 40 is in contact with the substrate 10, and covers the side of the isolation layer 30. The first conductive layer 40 fills the filling hole 31 to fill the filling hole 31. The top surface of the first conductive layer 40 can be flush with the top surface of the mask pattern 20 and the top surface of the isolation layer 30, so that the isolation layer 30 isolates the mask pattern 20 and the first conductive layer 40, thereby preventing the mask pattern 20 and the first conductive layer 40 from flowing laterally in the molten state during annealing, and ensuring the accuracy of the position of the mask pattern 20.
[0093] See also Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In some other examples, the first conductive layer 40 may also cover the top surface of the isolation layer 30 and the top surface of the mask pattern 20, that is, forming the first conductive layer 40 includes: depositing the first conductive layer 40 on the side and top surface of the isolation layer 30 and the top surface of the mask pattern 20, the first conductive layer 40 fills the filling hole 31, and the top surface of the first conductive layer 40 is higher than the top surface of the mask pattern 20, so as to facilitate the formation of the first conductive layer 40.
[0094] In the above example, the isolation layer 30 can support the mask pattern 20 and prevent the mask pattern 20 and the first conductive layer 40 from flowing laterally when in a molten state, so as to define the position of the mask pattern 20 and avoid the mask pattern 20 from shifting, thereby avoiding alignment problems in subsequent processes. The mask pattern 20 and the first conductive layer 40 above the isolation layer 30 are the entire film layer, and the flow of the mask pattern 20 when molten has no effect on the mask pattern 20.
[0095] The material of the first conductive layer 40 includes polysilicon, and the mask pattern 20 can be a stacked structure. The material of the middle film layer in the stacked structure is the same as the material of the first conductive layer 40, for example, a polysilicon layer, and the material of the middle film layer in the stacked structure can be undoped polysilicon, and the material of the first conductive layer is doped polysilicon, so that the first conductive layer 40 and the middle film layer are isolated by using the isolation layer 30 and the top film layer above the middle film layer, so that the isolation effect is good, and the effect of preventing the mask pattern 20 from drifting is good.
[0096] For example, Fig. 9 As shown, the mask pattern 20 includes a barrier layer 21, a third conductive layer 22 and a first protective layer 23 stacked in sequence, and the barrier layer 21 is located on the substrate 10. The material of the third conductive layer 22 is the same as that of the first conductive layer 40. The first conductive layer 40 and the third conductive layer 22 of the same material are completely isolated by the isolation layer 30 and the first protective layer 23, and the two will not contact each other in the molten state, thereby preventing the third conductive layer 22 from drifting, and the position of the mask pattern 20 is accurate. Among them, the material of the barrier layer 21 can be nitride or oxide, such as silicon nitride and silicon oxide, and the material of the first protective layer 23 can be oxide, such as silicon oxide.
[0097] Step S500: performing annealing treatment on the first conductive layer, the isolation layer, the mask pattern and the substrate.
[0098] Laser annealing is performed on the first conductive layer 40, the isolation layer 30, the mask pattern 20 and the substrate 10, and the internal holes of the first conductive layer 40 are improved by melting and recrystallization, so as to improve the conductivity of the first conductive layer 40 and reduce the resistance between the first conductive layer 40 and the substrate 10. At the same time, the isolation layer 30 is used to isolate the first conductive layer 40 and the mask pattern 20, so as to prevent the middle part of the mask pattern 20 from flowing together with the first conductive layer 40 and causing the top of the mask pattern 20 to collapse, that is, to prevent the mask pattern 20 from drifting, and to ensure the contour of the mask pattern 20.
[0099] In summary, the manufacturing method in the embodiment of the present disclosure uses the mask pattern 20 as a mask, etches the substrate 10 to form the boss 12, forms an isolation layer 30 on the sidewalls of the mask pattern 20 and the boss 12, forms a first conductive layer 40 in the filling hole 31 enclosed by the isolation layer 30, and anneals the first conductive layer 40 to improve the holes in the first conductive layer 40 and improve the conductive performance of the first conductive layer 40. At the same time, the isolation layer 30 isolates the first conductive layer 40 from the mask pattern 20 to prevent the mask pattern 20 and the first conductive layer 40 from melting and flowing to cause the mask pattern 20 to collapse, that is, to prevent the mask pattern 20 from drifting, and to ensure the contour of the mask pattern 20.
[0100] In addition, the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows is smaller than the distance between two adjacent mask patterns 20 in the same row, and smaller than the distance between two mask patterns 20 opposite to each other in alternate rows. The isolation layers 30 on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows and the corresponding bosses 12 are in contact, and the isolation layers 30 on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns 20 in the same row and the corresponding bosses 12, as well as on the side walls of two mask patterns 20 opposite to each other in alternate rows, enclose the filling holes 31. On the one hand, the isolation layers 30 form a whole, improving the stability of the isolation layers 30. On the other hand, the isolation layers 30 fill the smaller gaps, and the manufacturing difficulty is low. Since the smaller gaps are filled by the isolation layers 30, the poor filling of the conductive material in the smaller gaps can be avoided, and the conductive material remaining in the gaps after etching to form the bit lines can be avoided, and the leakage problem caused by the residual conductive material can be avoided.
[0101] In some possible implementations, forming a plurality of mask patterns 20 spaced apart and arranged in an array on a substrate 10 (step S100) includes:
[0102] Step S101: providing a substrate 10 , wherein the substrate 10 has a plurality of active regions 11 disposed at intervals.
[0103] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the substrate 10 has a plurality of active areas 11 (Active Area, referred to as AA), and the plurality of active areas 11 are arranged at intervals. For example, the semiconductor substrate 14 of the substrate 10 includes a plurality of active areas 11, and a shallow trench isolation (Shallow Trench Isolation, referred to as STI) structure isolating each active area 11, and the active area 11 is used to form a source area, a drain area, and a channel area of a transistor. The third protective layer 15 covers the active area 11 and the shallow trench isolation structure, and the shallow trench isolation structure can be formed in the same deposition process as the third protective layer 15.
[0104] Step S102: forming a mask pattern 20 on the substrate 10, wherein the mask pattern 20 covers the ends of the active regions 11, and one mask pattern 20 covers the ends of two active regions 11 adjacent to each other along the first direction.
[0105] By deposition and etching, a plurality of mask patterns 20 arranged at intervals are formed on the substrate 10. Each mask pattern 20 covers the end of the active area 11, and the ends of two active areas 11 adjacent to each other along the first direction are covered with a mask pattern 20, so that each mask pattern 20 covers at least the end of one active area 11. The active areas 11 and the mask patterns 20 located in the same column along the direction are alternately arranged in sequence.
[0106] For some examples, see Figure 3 and Fig.11, forming an isolation layer 30 on the sidewalls of each mask pattern 20 and the boss 12 (step S300), comprising:
[0107] S301: forming an initial isolation layer 32, the initial isolation layer 32 covers the side walls of the mask pattern 20, the top surface of the mask pattern 20, and the side walls and bottom walls of the contact groove 13, and the initial isolation layers 32 on the side walls of two adjacent mask patterns 20 and the corresponding bosses 12 in adjacent rows are in contact with each other.
[0108] An initial isolation layer 32 is deposited on the sidewalls and top surface of the mask pattern 20 and the sidewalls and bottom wall of the contact groove 13 , wherein the sidewalls of the contact groove 13 are the sidewalls of the boss 12 , and the bottom wall of the contact groove 13 is the substrate 10 exposed between the bosses 12 .
[0109] The initial isolation layers 32 on two adjacent mask patterns 20 in adjacent rows are in contact with each other, the initial isolation layers 32 on two adjacent bosses 12 in adjacent rows are in contact with each other, and the initial isolation layer 32 on the mask pattern 20 is adapted to the initial isolation layer 32 on the corresponding boss 12, that is, the initial isolation layer 32 on the mask pattern 20 and the initial isolation layer 32 on the corresponding boss 12 have the same shape and thickness.
[0110] S302 : removing the initial isolation layer 32 located on the top surface of the mask pattern 20 and the initial isolation layer 32 located on the bottom wall of the contact groove 13 to expose the substrate 10 , and the remaining initial isolation layer 32 forms the isolation layer 30 .
[0111] The initial isolation layer 32 located on the top surface of the mask pattern 20 and the bottom wall of the contact groove 13 is removed by etching, exposing the top surface of the mask pattern 20 and the substrate 10. The remaining initial isolation layer 32 covers the sidewalls of the mask pattern 20 and the sidewalls of the boss 12, and the remaining initial isolation layer 32 forms the isolation layer 30. The isolation layer 30 is formed by deposition and etching back.
[0112] In order to increase the area of the substrate 10 exposed in the filling hole 31, increase the contact area between the first conductive layer 40 and the substrate 10, and reduce the contact resistance between the first conductive layer 40 and the substrate 10, refer to Fig.12 Before forming the first conductive layer 40 (step S400), the method further includes: thinning the side surface of the isolation layer 30 of the side wall of the filling hole 31 to expand the filling hole 31, and the expanded filling hole 31 is spaced apart from the mask pattern 20 and the boss 12.
[0113] The isolation layer 30 on the side wall of the filling hole 31 is etched to thin the side of the isolation layer 30, reduce the thickness of the isolation layer 30, and expand the volume of the filling hole 31, so that the area of the substrate 10 exposed in the filling hole 31 is increased. The mask pattern 20 and the boss 12 are not exposed in the enlarged filling hole 31, and the enlarged filling hole 31 is spaced apart from the mask pattern 20, and the enlarged filling hole 31 is spaced apart from the boss 12, that is, the thinned isolation layer 30 still covers the side wall of the mask pattern 20 and the side wall of the boss 12.
[0114] For some examples, see Fig.10 and Fig.13 The mask pattern 20 includes a barrier layer 21, a third conductive layer 22 and a first protective layer 23 which are stacked in sequence. After the first conductive layer 40, the isolation layer 30, the mask pattern 20 and the substrate 10 are annealed (step S500), the method further includes:

[0116] The top surface of the first conductive layer 40 is planarized, for example, chemical mechanical grinding is performed on the top surface of the first conductive layer 40. After annealing, the top surface of the first conductive layer 40 is rough. By planarizing the top surface of the first conductive layer 40, the roughness of the top surface of the first conductive layer 40 can be reduced, so that the top surface of the first conductive layer 40 is flat. After the first conductive layer 40 is etched back, the top surface of the remaining first conductive layer 40 is relatively flat.
[0117] In step S700 , a portion of the isolation layer and the first conductive layer is removed, and the isolation layer and the first conductive layer located in the contact groove are retained to expose at least the side wall of the third conductive layer.

[0119] For example, Fig.14 As shown, the retained isolation layer 30 and the retained first conductive layer 40 are only filled in the contact groove 13 , and the top surfaces of the retained isolation layer 30 and the retained first conductive layer 40 are flush with the top surface of the substrate 10 .
[0120] For example, see Fig.15The reserved isolation layer 30 and the reserved first conductive layer 40 are filled in the contact groove 13 and between the barrier layers 21. The top surfaces of the reserved isolation layer 30 and the first conductive layer 40 are flush with the top surface of the barrier layer 21, so that the isolation layer 30 is in contact with the side surface of the barrier layer 21. When the isolation layer 30 and the barrier layer 21 are made of the same material, the isolation layer 30 and the barrier layer 21 are integrated, which has a better isolation and barrier effect.
[0121] Step S800: forming a second conductive layer on the retained isolation layer and the first conductive layer, wherein the second conductive layer fills the space between adjacent mask patterns and contacts the third conductive layer.
[0122] See also Fig.16 , a second conductive layer 50 is formed on the retained isolation layer 30 and the first conductive layer 40, the second conductive layer 50 fills between adjacent mask patterns 20 and contacts the third conductive layer 22, so as to subsequently form a contact plug connecting the bit line and the substrate 10.

[0127] See also Fig.17 and Fig.18 The exposed first protection layer 23 is etched away to expose the third conductive layer 22 . The top surface of the third conductive layer 22 is flush with the top surface of the second conductive layer 50 to form a flat surface, so as to form a bit line layer on the third conductive layer 22 and the second conductive layer 50 .
