Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to memory devices and methods of forming the same, and more particularly to memory devices having cell contacts. Background Art
[0002] As the critical dimension (CD) of features in memory devices becomes smaller, the size of the memory devices is reduced accordingly, thereby increasing the density of components in the devices. However, the reduced feature size results in a higher degree of difficulty in manufacturing, and thus easily leads to defects in the memory devices. For example, it becomes more difficult to evenly form cell contacts between closely spaced components, which may result in seams in the cell contacts and reduce the reliability of the device. Therefore, the formation of memory devices requires a method of forming cell contacts with a complete structure. Summary of the invention

[0014] In some embodiments, the first barrier layer extends into the source / drain region and the second barrier layer is below the top surface of the substrate.
[0015] In some embodiments, the first barrier layer includes a material different from that of the dielectric layer.
[0016] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a method for forming a memory device includes the following steps. A gate structure on a substrate and a dielectric layer covering the gate structure are provided.

[0018] In some embodiments, the first barrier layer deposited by the first process has a first density, and the first density is different from a second density of the second barrier layer deposited by the second process.
[0019] In some embodiments, removing the first barrier layer further includes removing a third portion of the first barrier layer located on the top surface of the dielectric layer.
[0020] In some embodiments, depositing the second barrier layer on the bottom surface of the opening includes depositing the second barrier layer directly on the source / drain region exposed by the opening.
[0021] In some embodiments, after depositing the second barrier layer, the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer together cover side surfaces and a bottom surface of the opening.

It should be noted that, in accordance with standard methods in the industry, various features are not drawn to scale.

[0027] In order to realize the different features of the mentioned subject matter, the following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples. Specific examples of components, configurations, etc. are described below to simplify the present disclosure. Of course, these are merely examples and are not restrictive. For example, in the following description, forming a first feature on or above a second feature may include an embodiment in which the first feature and the second feature are formed in direct contact, and may also include an embodiment in which an additional feature is formed between the first feature and the second feature so that the first feature and the second feature may not be in direct contact. In addition, the present disclosure may repeat reference numbers and / or letters in various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity, and does not itself represent the relationship between the various embodiments and / or configurations discussed.
[0028] Furthermore, spatially relative terms, such as "below," "beneath," "lower," "above," "upper," and the like, may be used herein to facilitate describing one element or feature's relationship to another element or feature as illustrated in the figures. The spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.
[0029] The present disclosure provides a memory device, which includes a cell contact adjacent to a gate structure to electrically connect a source / drain region. The cell contact includes a conductive layer, a first barrier layer formed by a first process, and a second barrier layer formed by a second process. The first barrier layer and the second barrier layer continuously cover an opening for filling the conductive layer, so that the conductive layer uniformly fills the opening to avoid missing material in the cell contact and forming a seam. The second barrier layer with a lower resistivity is formed between the conductive layer and the source / drain region, thereby reducing the resistivity of the conductive path.
[0030] According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figure 1 A flow chart of a method S100 of forming a memory device is shown. FIG. 2A to FIG. 2F The memory device is shown in Figure 1 sectional views of multiple intermediate stages of the forming method S100. Figure 2F The memory device 10 shown in FIG. 1 is used as an example to describe the forming method S100. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that Figure 1 and FIG. 2A to FIG. 2F The method shown may be used not only to form the memory device 10 , but may also be used to form other memory devices having cell contacts and fall within the scope of the present disclosure.
[0031] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2A The method S100 starts at step S102, providing a gate structure 110 and a dielectric layer 120 on a substrate 100. The top surface of the dielectric layer 120 is higher than the top surface of the gate structure 110 and the top surface of the substrate 100, so that the dielectric layer 120 covers the gate structure 110 and the substrate 100. Figure 2A As shown in FIG. 1 , the dielectric layer 120 may cover at least two gate structures 110 on the substrate 100 to subsequently form cell contacts between the gate structures 110. However, the number of gate structures 110 covered by the dielectric layer 120 may vary according to device requirements.
[0032] In some embodiments, the substrate 100 may be a semiconductor substrate, such as a bulk semiconductor, a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI), or the like. The substrate 100 may include silicon, silicon carbide, silicide, doped silicon, or other materials suitable for forming the source / drain regions 102 therein. In some embodiments, the dielectric layer 120 on the substrate 100 may include silicon oxide, a high-k dielectric material, or the like.
[0033] In some embodiments, the gate structure 110 adjacent to the source / drain region 102 may include a gate electrode 112 on the substrate 100 and a gate dielectric layer 114 covering the gate electrode 112. The gate electrode 112 may include a metal, a metal silicide, polysilicon, or other suitable conductive material. The gate dielectric layer 114 may be formed of a material different from the dielectric layer 120, such as a nitride. The gate structure 110 may further include a support foot 116 extending from the gate dielectric layer 114. The support foot 116 helps stabilize the gate structure 110 on the substrate 100. The dielectric layer 120 may be formed between the support foot 116 and the gate dielectric layer 114.
[0034] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2B , the method S100 proceeds to step S104 to form an opening 120p through the dielectric layer 120. Specifically, the opening 120p is formed from the top surface of the dielectric layer 120 toward the substrate 100. The opening 120p is adjacent to the gate structure 110 to expose the substrate 100 located on one side of the gate structure 110. The opening 120p defines a position where a cell contact is subsequently formed, so the opening 120p can particularly expose the source / drain region 102 in the substrate 100. Although the opening 120p is illustrated as having a flat bottom surface, the opening 120p in other embodiments may have a curved bottom surface.
[0035] In the embodiment where the dielectric layer 120 covers a plurality of gate structures 110, the opening 120p may be formed between two gate structures 110. In some embodiments, the opening 120p may extend into the source / drain region 102. Figure 2B As shown in , the opening 120p may extend until the bottom surface of the opening 120p is lower than the top surface of the substrate 100. In such an embodiment, a portion of the source / drain region 102 may be removed to form the opening 120p. In some other embodiments, the depth of the opening 120p may be equal to the dielectric layer 120, so that the surface of the source / drain region 102 exposed in the opening 120p is substantially coplanar with the top surface of the substrate 100.
[0036] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2C, the method S100 proceeds to step S106, depositing a first barrier layer 130 in the opening 120p and on the dielectric layer 120. Specifically, the first barrier layer 130 is deposited using a first process, wherein the first process is suitable for depositing materials in the opening 120p having a high aspect ratio. For example, the first barrier layer 130 may be deposited by advanced sequential flow deposition (ASFD). Continuous sequential flow deposition is a technique similar to an atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. The material deposited by one reaction cycle of the continuous sequential flow deposition has an atomic-scale thickness, thereby providing a deposited material with a high degree of conformality. Therefore, the first barrier layer 130 may continuously and conformally cover the opening 120p and the dielectric layer 120. Since the first barrier layer 130 deposited by one reaction cycle of continuous gas flow chemical phase deposition has such a thin thickness, the first barrier layer 130 can exhibit higher uniformity and higher compactness than a material layer deposited by chemical vapor deposition (CVD).
[0037] like Figure 2C As shown in FIG. 1 , after the first process, the first barrier layer 130 includes a first portion 132 covering the bottom surface of the opening 120p, a second portion 134 covering the side surface of the opening 120p, and a third portion 136 covering the top surface of the dielectric layer 120. The first portion 132 and the second portion 134 continuously cover the bottom surface of the opening 120p. Figure 2B The exposed surface in the opening 120 p is shown. In embodiments where the bottom surface of the opening 120 p is lower than the top surface of the substrate 100 , the first portion 132 may be lower than the top surface of the substrate 100 .
[0038] In some embodiments, the thickness of the first barrier layer 130 may be sufficient to cover the surface of the opening 120p, and the opening 120p is not completely filled by the first barrier layer 130. For example, the thickness of the first barrier layer 130 may be greater than 0 nanometers, and the thickness of the first barrier layer 130 may be less than or equal to 20 nanometers. If the thickness of the first barrier layer 130 is too close to 0 nanometers, the first barrier layer 130 may be too thin to evenly cover the exposed surface in the opening 120p. If the thickness of the first barrier layer 130 is greater than 20 nanometers, the first barrier layer 130 may affect the subsequent deposition. Figure 2E The second barrier layer 140 in the embodiment of the present invention may significantly change the memory device characteristics such as resistivity.
[0039] In some embodiments, the first barrier layer 130 may include TiN, SiN, SiO 2 , nitride formed by decoupled plasma nitridation (DPN) or remote plasma nitridation (RPN) or a combination thereof. The first barrier layer 130 may include a material different from the dielectric layer 120, so that the subsequent etching of the first barrier layer 130 may not significantly affect the dielectric layer 120.
[0040] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2D , method S100 proceeds to step S108, from Figure 2C The structure shown removes a portion of the first barrier layer 130. Specifically, the removal process selectively removes the first barrier layer 130 parallel to the bottom surface of the opening 120p. For example, the removal process may be an anisotropic etching process, such as a dry etching process using plasma. Therefore, a first portion 132 of the first barrier layer 130 located on the bottom surface of the opening 120p is removed, while a second portion 134 remains on the side surface of the opening 120p. Due to the removal of the first portion 132, the source / drain region 102 is exposed again in the opening 120p.
[0041] After removing the first portion 132, the second portion 134 of the first barrier layer 130 may remain on the side surface from the top to the bottom of the opening 120p. Therefore, in embodiments where the bottom surface of the opening 120p is lower than the top surface of the substrate 100, the second portion 134 may extend into the source / drain region 102. In some embodiments, removing the first barrier layer 130 may further include removing the third portion 136 on the top surface of the dielectric layer 120. After removing the third portion 136, the top surface of the second portion 134 may be coplanar with the top surface of the dielectric layer 120.
[0042] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2E , the method S100 proceeds to step S110, and a second barrier layer 140 is deposited on the bottom surface of the opening 120p. The second barrier layer 140 is directly deposited on the source / drain region 102 exposed by the opening 120p, so that the second barrier layer 140 directly contacts the source / drain region 102. In addition, the second barrier layer 140 extends on the bottom surface of the opening 120p to directly contact the first barrier layer 130 on the side surface of the opening 120p. After the second barrier layer 140 is deposited, the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 jointly cover the side surface and the bottom surface of the opening 120p. In an embodiment where the bottom surface of the opening 120p is lower than the top surface of the substrate 100, the second barrier layer 140 may be lower than the top surface of the substrate 100.
[0043] Specifically, the second barrier layer 140 is deposited using a second process, wherein the second process is different from the first process for depositing the first barrier layer 130. The deposition conformality of the first process may be higher than the deposition conformality of the second process. Therefore, some properties of the second barrier layer 140 are different from those of the first barrier layer 130, and in particular, the second density and the second resistivity of the second barrier layer 140 are different from the first density and the first resistivity of the first barrier layer 130.
[0044] For example, in an embodiment where continuous gas flow chemical phase deposition is used to deposit the first barrier layer 130, and the second process is chemical vapor deposition, the second resistivity of the second barrier layer 140 may be lower than the first resistivity of the first barrier layer 130. In such an embodiment, the first density of the first barrier layer 130 may be higher than the second density of the second barrier layer 140.
[0045] In some embodiments, the second process may not be as suitable as the first process for depositing material on the side surface of the opening 120p, so the second barrier layer 140 is formed substantially along a direction parallel to the bottom surface of the opening 120p. Figure 2E As shown in FIG. 1 , the second barrier layer 140 is formed on the bottom surface of the opening 120p and exposes the first barrier layer 130 in the opening 120p. In some other embodiments, when the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 cover the surface of the opening 120p, the second barrier layer 140 may cover a portion of the first barrier layer 130.
[0046] In some embodiments, the second barrier layer 140 may have a thickness sufficient to cover the bottom surface of the opening 120p, and the opening 120p is not completely filled by the second barrier layer 140. For example, the first thickness of the first barrier layer 130 may be equal to the second thickness of the second barrier layer 140. In some embodiments, the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 may include similar or identical components to provide high adhesion between the two barrier layers. This helps the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 to continuously cover the surface of the opening 120p. Although the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 may be formed of the same component, the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 may still exhibit different characteristics due to the difference between the first process and the second process.
[0047] In some embodiments, when forming the second barrier layer 140, the third barrier layer 145 may be simultaneously deposited on the top surface of the dielectric layer 120. The third barrier layer 145 extends on the dielectric layer 120 to directly contact the first barrier layer 130. Therefore, the first barrier layer 130, the second barrier layer 140, and the third barrier layer 145 collectively cover the opening 120p and the dielectric layer 120. Figure 2EAs shown in , the third barrier layer 145 may extend on the first barrier layer 130 so that the side surface of the third barrier layer 145 is coplanar with the side surface of the first barrier layer 130. Since the third barrier layer 145 is formed in the second process, the characteristics of the third barrier layer 145 may be similar to those of the second barrier layer 140. For example, the third resistivity of the third barrier layer 145 may be equal to the second resistivity of the second barrier layer 140 and lower than the first resistivity of the first barrier layer 130.
[0048] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2F , the method S100 proceeds to step S112, where a conductive layer 150 is formed in the opening 120p. Specifically, the conductive layer 150 is formed on the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 to fill the opening 120p. The first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 continuously cover the surface of the opening 120p, so that the material of the conductive layer 150 can be uniformly formed from the bottom surface and the side surface of the opening 120p. Therefore, the conductive layer 150 can completely fill the opening 120p and avoid forming a seam in the conductive layer 150.
[0049] In some embodiments, the conductive layer 150 may include a single layer or multiple layers of metal, such as Ti, W, Cu, Al, Co, metal silicide, metal nitride, or a combination thereof. In embodiments where the third barrier layer 145 is formed on the top surface of the dielectric layer 120, the conductive layer 150 may extend onto the third barrier layer 145 and further extend directly above the gate structure 110.
[0050] According to the above method, a memory device 10 is formed. The memory device 10 includes a gate structure 110 on a substrate 100, a source / drain region 102 in the substrate 100, a dielectric layer 120 covering the substrate 100 and the gate structure 110, and a cell contact 160 adjacent to the gate structure 110. The cell contact 160 includes a conductive layer 150, a first barrier layer 130 on the sidewall of the conductive layer 150, and a second barrier layer 140 on the bottom surface of the conductive layer 150. The second barrier layer 140 directly contacts the first barrier layer 130, so that the first barrier layer 130 and the second barrier layer 140 together surround the conductive layer 150, thereby separating the conductive layer 150 from the dielectric layer 120 and separating the conductive layer 150 from the substrate 100. The second barrier layer 140 having low resistivity is interposed between the conductive layer 150 and the source / drain region 102, so the conductive path from the conductive layer 150 to the source / drain region 102 has sufficiently low resistivity. The cell contact 160 may further include a third barrier layer 145 between the top surface of the dielectric layer 120 and the conductive layer 150.
[0051] According to the above-mentioned embodiments, a memory device formed according to the process of the present disclosure includes a cell contact adjacent to a gate structure. The cell contact includes a first barrier layer and a second barrier layer formed in two different processes, so that the two barrier layers have different characteristics. The first barrier layer with a higher degree of conformality is deposited on the side surface of the opening for the cell contact, and the second barrier layer with a lower resistivity is deposited on the bottom surface of the opening. The conductive layer of the cell contact can be uniformly formed on the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer to avoid forming a seam in the cell contact, thereby improving the reliability of the memory device. The second barrier layer directly contacts the source / drain region and the conductive layer to reduce the resistivity of the conductive path between the cell contact and the source / drain region.
[0052] The features of some embodiments are summarized above so that those skilled in the art can better understand the viewpoints of the present disclosure. Those skilled in the art should understand that they can easily use the present disclosure as a basis for designing or modifying other processes and structures to achieve the same purpose and / or achieve the same advantages as the embodiments described herein. Those skilled in the art should also understand that such equivalent constructions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and various changes, substitutions and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.
