Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing technology, and in particular to an atomic layer deposition coating method and system for high aspect ratio structural devices. Background Art
[0002] Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a high-precision thin film deposition technology based on chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It deposits material on the surface of the substrate layer by layer in the form of a single atomic film based on chemical vapor. Specifically, two or more reaction precursor reactants are introduced into the reaction chamber one at a time and adsorbed on the substrate surface. Each reaction precursor reaches saturation adsorption on the substrate surface. In the deposition process of ALD, the reaction precursors are deposited alternately, and the chemical reaction of a new layer of atomic film is directly related to the previous layer. Only one layer of atoms is deposited each time, and the ALD reaction is self-limiting.
[0003] During the atomic layer deposition process, when the reaction precursor reaches the surface of the deposition substrate, it will be deposited on the substrate surface. Between different reaction precursor pulses, the reaction chamber needs to be purged with an inert gas to remove excess reaction precursor that is not adsorbed on the substrate surface, ensuring that the chemical reaction only occurs on the substrate surface.
[0004] With the advancement of science and technology, miniaturization is the trend of the micro-electromechanical industry. Components with high aspect ratio structures are increasingly used, and the demand is also increasing. In the semiconductor field, high aspect ratio microstructures refer to microstructures with a depth and aspect ratio greater than 10 formed on silicon wafers or other substrates through processes such as photolithography combined with etching. Usually, such structures are presented in the form of deep holes or deep grooves. The related technology uses ALD to deposit thin films on the surface of a substrate with a high aspect ratio structure. The reaction precursor cannot effectively diffuse into the interior of the high aspect ratio structure, resulting in the inability to completely fill the material into structures such as deep holes and channels, which seriously affects the working efficiency of devices with high aspect ratio structures.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The following embodiments are described in detail, and examples thereof are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application.
[0026] Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a high-precision thin film deposition technology based on chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It deposits material on the surface of the substrate layer by layer in the form of a single atomic film based on chemical vapor. Specifically, two or more reaction precursors are introduced into the reaction chamber one at a time and adsorbed on the substrate surface. Each reaction precursor reaches saturation adsorption on the substrate surface. In the deposition process of ALD, the reaction precursors are deposited alternately, and the chemical reaction of a new layer of atomic film is directly related to the previous layer. Only one layer of atoms is deposited each time, and the ALD reaction is self-limiting.
[0027] During the atomic layer deposition process, when the reaction precursor reaches the surface of the deposition substrate, it will be deposited on the substrate surface. Between different reaction precursor pulses, the reaction chamber needs to be purged with an inert gas to remove excess reaction precursor that is not adsorbed on the substrate surface, ensuring that the chemical reaction only occurs on the substrate surface.
[0028] With the advancement of science and technology, miniaturization is the trend of the MEMS industry. Components with high aspect ratio structures are increasingly used and the demand is also increasing. In related technologies, ALD process is used to deposit high aspect ratio structures. The equipment used is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes a vacuum pump, a reaction chamber, a first source bottle, a second source bottle and a carrier gas pipeline. The first source bottle stores a first reaction precursor, and the second source bottle stores a second reaction precursor. The specific process of the ALD process is that the first reaction precursor and the second reaction precursor alternately enter the reaction chamber in a "pulse + purge" manner, and the reaction ends after completing a set number of cycles.
[0029] However, when the above-mentioned ALD method is used to deposit thin films on the surface of a device with a high aspect ratio structure, the first reaction precursor and the second reaction precursor cannot quickly and effectively diffuse into the high aspect ratio structure device, resulting in insufficient deposition in structures such as deep holes or grooves.
[0030] Based on this, the present application provides an atomic layer deposition coating method and system for high aspect ratio structural devices. The atomic layer deposition coating method uses a combination mode of a boost diffusion process (Boost diffuse) and an inert gas purge process, and controls the first valve and the second valve in coordination, or the opening of the first butterfly valve and the second butterfly valve is changed in reverse periodicity to increase and decrease the pressure in the reaction chamber, thereby effectively avoiding the disadvantage of insufficient diffusion of reaction precursors on the surface of high aspect ratio structural devices, and improving the phenomenon of insufficient deposition in structures such as deep holes or grooves. Figure 2 The figure shows a schematic diagram comparing the atomic layer deposition coating method provided by the present application with the atomic layer deposition method in the related art. Figure 2Figure a is the natural diffusion process of the reaction precursor in traditional ALD. Figure 2 b is the pressurized diffusion process of the reaction precursor mentioned in this application. Among them, the inert gas purging process includes pumping the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state and purging operation; Figure 2 The purge in the process refers to the purge operation, and the pulse refers to the introduction of the first reaction precursor and / or the second reaction precursor.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the present application provides an atomic layer deposition coating system for a high aspect ratio structure device, and the atomic layer deposition coating system is used to implement an atomic layer deposition coating method for a high aspect ratio structure device. The atomic layer deposition coating system includes: A reaction chamber, a vacuum pump connected to the reaction chamber, a pressurized gas pipeline, and a carrier gas pipeline; A first valve V1 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the reaction chamber and the vacuum pump, and a second valve V2 is provided on the pressurized gas pipeline connected to the reaction chamber; the first valve V1 is used to control the ability of the vacuum pump to evacuate the reaction chamber, and the second valve V2 is used to control whether to introduce pressurized gas into the reaction chamber. The first valve V1 and the second valve V2 can be used to control the cavity pressure of the reaction chamber.
[0032] A fifth valve V5 is provided on the carrier gas pipeline, and the carrier gas pipeline is respectively connected to the first source bottle and the second source bottle, the first source bottle stores the first reaction precursor, the second source bottle stores the second reaction precursor, the third valve V3 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the first source bottle and the carrier gas pipeline, and the fourth valve V4 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the second source bottle and the carrier gas pipeline. Among them, the third valve V3, the fourth valve V4 and the fifth valve V5 are respectively used to control whether the first reaction precursor is introduced, whether the second reaction precursor is introduced, and whether the carrier gas is introduced.
[0033] In this embodiment, by adjusting the opening and closing of the first valve V1 and the second valve V2, the pressurized gas enters the reaction chamber, so that the pressure of the reaction chamber increases and decreases rapidly, thereby allowing the reaction precursor to quickly enter the deep holes / channels of the high aspect ratio structure device and be effectively adsorbed in the high aspect ratio structure device.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the present application also provides an atomic layer deposition coating system for high aspect ratio structure devices, Figure 3On the basis of the disclosed structure, a first butterfly valve V6 is provided on the connecting pipeline between the reaction chamber and the vacuum pump, and the first butterfly valve V6 is located between the first valve V1 and the reaction chamber; a second butterfly valve V7 is provided on the pressurized gas pipeline connected to the reaction chamber, and the second butterfly valve V7 is located between the second valve V2 and the reaction chamber; wherein the opening of the first butterfly valve V6 and the second butterfly valve V7 is controllable; the first butterfly valve V6 and the second butterfly valve V7 are used to control the pressure in the reaction chamber to increase and decrease within the second time, so that the pressure in the reaction chamber is in dynamic change. The first butterfly valve V6 is used to control the suction volume of the vacuum pump, and the second butterfly valve V7 is used to control the inlet flow of the pressurized gas. After the reaction is completed, the airflow in the vacuum pump is effectively prevented from flowing back into the reaction chamber by closing the first valve V1, and the pressurized gas can be effectively prevented from entering the reaction chamber by closing the second valve V2.
[0035] The openings of the first butterfly valve V6 and the second butterfly valve V7 in the present application are controllable. After the reaction precursor enters the reaction chamber, the openings of the first butterfly valve V6 and the second butterfly valve V7 are changed periodically in the opposite direction to increase and decrease the pressure in the reaction chamber, so that the reaction precursor can effectively enter the deep holes of the high aspect ratio structural device, and at the same time effectively avoid the disadvantage of insufficient diffusion of the reaction precursor in the structure of the high aspect ratio structural device, and improve the phenomenon that the reaction precursor cannot be fully deposited in structures such as deep holes or channels of the high aspect ratio structural device. Figure 4 The atomic layer deposition coating system provided by the embodiment shown in the figure is simultaneously Figure 3 The atomic layer deposition coating system shown in the figure increases or decreases the pressure in the reaction chamber more slowly than in the pressurized diffusion process, but is still faster than the prior art, that is, the pressure in the reaction chamber increases more slowly and decreases more slowly.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the present application also provides an atomic layer deposition coating method for a high aspect ratio structure device, the method comprising: Placing a high aspect ratio structure device in a reaction chamber, and evacuating the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state; Introducing a first reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the first reaction precursor when the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches a first time; Performing a pressurization diffusion treatment on the reaction chamber, stopping the pressurization diffusion treatment when the time of the pressurization diffusion treatment reaches a second time and pumping the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state; Introducing a second reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the second reaction precursor when the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches a third time; The reaction chamber is subjected to a pressurized diffusion treatment, and when the pressurized diffusion treatment time reaches a second time, the pressurized diffusion treatment is stopped and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state, thereby completing the coating on the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device.
[0037] In the atomic layer deposition coating method, performing pressurization diffusion treatment on the reaction chamber, stopping the pressurization diffusion treatment when the time of the pressurization diffusion treatment reaches a second time and pumping the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state includes: A pressurized gas with a constant flow rate is introduced into the reaction chamber and the reaction chamber is simultaneously stopped from being evacuated. When the time for introducing the pressurized gas or the time for stopping evacuating the reaction chamber reaches a second time, the pressurized gas is stopped from being introduced and the reaction chamber is continuously evacuated until the reaction chamber is evacuated back to a low vacuum state. or, The amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas pumped into the reaction chamber are changed in reverse periodicity. When the time of the reverse periodicity change reaches a second time, the reverse periodicity change is stopped and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state.
[0038] Due to the different flow rates of the pressurized gas (constant or periodically changing), the atomic layer deposition coating control process is also different. The implementation method of the atomic layer deposition coating also corresponds to atomic layer deposition coating systems of different structures, which are introduced below.
[0039] In some embodiments, the present application provides an atomic layer deposition coating method for a high aspect ratio structure device. Figure 3 In the atomic layer deposition coating system for high aspect ratio structural devices, when the high aspect ratio structural device is placed in the reaction chamber, the reaction chamber door is opened, and the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, the second valve V2, the third valve V3, the fourth valve V4, and the fifth valve V5 are closed; after the high aspect ratio structural device is placed in the reaction chamber, the reaction chamber door is closed, and the second valve V2, the third valve V3, and the fourth valve V4 are closed, and the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, and the fifth valve V5 are opened to evacuate the reaction chamber; when the first reaction precursor is introduced into the reaction chamber, the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, the third valve V3, and the fifth valve V5 are opened , and the second valve V2 and the fourth valve V4 are closed at the same time; when the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches the first time, the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, and the fifth valve V5 are opened, and the second valve V2, the third valve V3, and the fourth valve V4 are closed; when the second reaction precursor is introduced into the reaction chamber, the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, the fourth valve V4, and the fifth valve V5 are opened, and the second valve V2 and the third valve V3 are closed at the same time; when the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches the third time, the vacuum pump, the first valve V1, and the fifth valve V5 are opened, and the second valve V2, the third valve V3, and the fourth valve V4 are closed at the same time.
[0040] In order to facilitate a clear understanding of the functions of each valve and to facilitate distinction, the first valve V1, the second valve V2, the third valve V3, the fourth valve V4 and the fifth valve V5 are referred to as vacuum angle valve V1, booster valve V2, source valve V3, source valve V4 and carrier valve V5 respectively in the following text.
[0041] The atomic layer deposition coating method provided in this embodiment includes: S1: Place a high aspect ratio structure device in a reaction chamber, and evacuate the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state. The structure of the high aspect ratio structure device is a high aspect ratio micro-nano structure. The pressure in the reaction chamber under the low vacuum state is 1-2 torr.
[0042] The step of placing a high aspect ratio structure device in a reaction chamber and evacuating the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state includes: Placing a high aspect ratio structure device in a reaction chamber, introducing a carrier gas into the reaction chamber, and starting a vacuum pump to evacuate the reaction chamber; When the pressure in the reaction chamber reaches the preset pressure value, the first reaction precursor is introduced into the reaction chamber. The preset pressure value is 1~2torr, and the pumping speed of the vacuum pump is 500~800 m 3 / h, the flow rate of carrier gas before passing through carrier gas valve V5 is consistent with the flow rate into the reaction chamber, both of which are 40~60sccm.
[0043] Specifically, the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is opened, and the high aspect ratio structure device is placed. During this process, the vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, booster valve V2, source valve V3, source valve V4 and carrier gas valve V5 are closed. It should be noted that when the carrier gas valve V5 is closed, the carrier gas in the carrier gas pipeline is pushed toward the carrier gas valve V5, and when the booster valve V2 is closed, the booster gas in the booster gas pipeline is pushed toward the booster valve V2. After the high aspect ratio structure device is placed, the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is closed, and the vacuum pump is turned on to evacuate the reaction chamber at the same time. The carrier gas valve V5, vacuum pump and vacuum angle valve V1 are opened, and the pumping speed of the vacuum pump is 500~800 m 3 / h, the flow rate of carrier gas is the same as described above, the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, and the pressure value of the reaction chamber is 1~2torr. During this process, the boost valve V2 is closed, and the source valve V3 and source valve V4 are closed.
[0044] The carrier gas valve V5 and the vacuum pump are opened during vacuuming and are closed after the coating on the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device is completed.
[0045] S2: introducing a first reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the first reaction precursor when the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches a first time.
[0046] Specifically, after the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the source valve V3 is opened, and the first reaction precursor is introduced. When the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches the first time, the source valve V3 is closed, and the introduction of the first reaction precursor is stopped. The first time is 0.1~10s, and the source mass of the first source bottle is determined according to the actual reaction precursor. In this process, the boost valve V2 is closed, the source valve V4 is closed, the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, and the carrier gas valve V5 is opened. Exemplarily, when the first reaction precursor is TMA (trimethylaluminum), the amount of TMA source introduced is 1~2mg, and the first time is 0.1~2s; when the first reaction precursor is Cu(acac)2 (copper acetylacetonate), the amount of Cu(acac)2 source introduced is 1~3mg, and the first time is 3~6s.
[0047] S3: introducing a constant flow of pressurized gas into the reaction chamber and stopping evacuating the reaction chamber at the same time, and when the time for introducing the pressurized gas or the time for stopping evacuating the reaction chamber reaches a second time, the introduction of the pressurized gas is stopped and the evacuation of the reaction chamber is continued until the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state. In some embodiments, after the reaction chamber is pumped to a low vacuum state, a purging operation is also included. The inert gas purging process includes pumping the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state and a purging operation. The purging operation lasts for 5 to 10 seconds.
[0048] Among them, when a constant flow of pressurized gas is introduced into the reaction chamber and the vacuum pumping of the reaction chamber is stopped at the same time, the operation of introducing the pressurized gas and the operation of stopping the vacuum pumping of the reaction chamber are carried out simultaneously, that is, while the pressurizing valve V2 is opened, the vacuum angle valve V1 is closed, and the time for introducing the pressurized gas and the time for stopping the vacuum pumping of the reaction chamber are the same, both being the second time.
[0049] By adjusting the opening and closing of the vacuum angle valve V1 and the boost valve V2, the boost gas is allowed to enter the reaction chamber, causing the pressure in the reaction chamber to increase and decrease rapidly, thereby allowing the reaction precursor to quickly enter the deep holes / channels of the high aspect ratio structural device and be effectively adsorbed in the high aspect ratio structural device.
[0050] In this embodiment, after each reaction precursor gas is introduced, a large amount of pressurized gas is introduced, and the vacuum pump is kept in a state of continuously evacuating the reaction chamber, so that the pressure of the reaction chamber increases and decreases rapidly, so that the reaction precursor is fully diffused in the reaction chamber, and this process is called pressurized diffusion treatment; each time the reaction precursor is introduced for deposition, a pressurized diffusion treatment is performed, that is, the atomic layer deposition coating method provided in the present application includes multiple pressurized diffusion treatments. Taking the deposition of two reaction precursors as an example, the atomic layer deposition coating method includes two pressurized diffusion treatments; wherein, the first pressurized diffusion treatment specifically includes: When performing the first pressurized diffusion treatment, the boost valve V2 is opened and the vacuum angle valve V1 is closed, and the pressurized gas is introduced. When the time for the pressurized gas to be introduced or the time for stopping the vacuum pumping of the reaction chamber reaches the second time, the boost valve V2 is closed and the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, wherein the second time is 1 to 20 seconds. During this process, the source valve V3 and the source valve V4 remain closed, and the carrier gas valve V5 remains open. When the boost valve V2 is opened, the maximum pressure in the reaction chamber can reach 1.5 to 2.0 torr.
[0051] After closing the boost valve V2, the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state, wherein the flow rate of the boost gas before passing through the boost valve V2 is consistent with the flow rate into the reaction chamber, both of which are 800-1500 sccm. The inert gas purge process includes pumping the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state and a purge operation. The purge operation time is 5-10 seconds.
[0052] Exemplarily, the pressurized gas or carrier gas is any one of nitrogen, argon, helium, and neon.
[0053] S4: introducing a second reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and when the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches a third time, stopping the introduction of the second reaction precursor.
[0054] Specifically, when the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state again, the source valve V4 is opened, and the second reaction precursor is introduced. When the second reaction precursor introduction time reaches the third time, the source valve V4 is closed, and the second reaction precursor is stopped. The third time is 0.1~15s, and the source mass of the second source bottle is determined according to the actual reaction precursor. In this process, the boost valve V2 is closed, the source valve V3 is closed, the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, and the carrier gas valve V5 is opened. Exemplarily, when the second reaction precursor is H2O (liquid), the amount of H2O introduced is 1~3mg, and the third time is 0.1~2s; when the second reaction precursor is H2 (gaseous), the amount of H2 introduced is 3~6L, and the third time is 5~15s.
[0055] S5: introducing a constant flow of pressurized gas into the reaction chamber and simultaneously stopping evacuating the reaction chamber; when the time for introducing the pressurized gas or the time for stopping evacuating the reaction chamber reaches a second time, the introduction of the pressurized gas is stopped and the evacuation of the reaction chamber is continued until the reaction chamber is returned to a low vacuum state.
[0056] After the second reaction precursor is introduced, a pressurized gas is introduced to perform a second pressurized diffusion treatment, and the second pressurized diffusion treatment specifically includes: When performing the second pressurized diffusion treatment, the booster valve V2 is opened and the vacuum angle valve V1 is closed, and the pressurized gas is introduced. When the pressurized gas introduction time or the time for stopping the vacuum pumping of the reaction chamber reaches the second time, the booster valve V2 is closed and the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened to pump the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state; wherein the second time is 1 to 20 seconds. During this process, the source valve V3 and the source valve V4 remain closed, and the carrier gas valve V5 remains open.
[0057] When the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, the booster valve V2, source valve V3, and source valve V4 remain closed, and the vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, and carrier gas valve V5 remain open. After the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the reaction chamber is purged with an inert gas for 5 to 10 seconds.
[0058] Wherein, steps S2 to S5 constitute one deposition cycle. The number of deposition cycles is determined according to the target thickness of the required film, and steps S2 to S5 are repeated until a film of target thickness is obtained on the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device.

In some embodiments, the number of deposition cycles is 100 to 200 times.
[0060] In this embodiment, each time after the reaction precursor gas is introduced, the pressurized gas is introduced, and the vacuum pump is stopped from continuously evacuating the reaction chamber. By adjusting the opening and closing of the vacuum angle valve V1 and the booster valve V2, the pressurized gas enters the reaction chamber, so that the pressure of the reaction chamber increases and decreases, thereby allowing the reaction precursor to quickly enter the deep holes / channels of the high aspect ratio structure device and be effectively adsorbed in the high aspect ratio structure device.

[0066] The atomic layer deposition coating method provided in this embodiment is the same as the atomic layer deposition coating method provided in the above embodiment and will not be described in detail. In order to facilitate a clear understanding of the functions of each valve and to facilitate distinction, the first butterfly valve V6 and the second butterfly valve V7 are referred to as APC butterfly valve V6 and APC butterfly valve V7 in the following text.
[0067] The atomic layer deposition coating method provided in this embodiment includes: S1': placing a high aspect ratio structure device in a reaction chamber, and evacuating the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state.
[0068] Specifically, the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is opened, and the high aspect ratio structure device is placed. During this process, the vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, booster valve V2, source valve V3, source valve V4 and carrier valve V5 are closed, and the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 and APC butterfly valve V7 are 0%. It should be noted that when carrier valve V5 is closed, the carrier gas in the carrier gas pipeline is pushed toward carrier valve V5, and when booster valve V2 is closed, the booster gas in the booster gas pipeline is pushed toward booster valve V2; after placing the high aspect ratio structure device, the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is closed, and the vacuum pump is turned on to evacuate the reaction chamber.

[0069] The vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, boost valve V2 and carrier gas valve V5 are opened during vacuuming and closed after the coating of the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device is completed.
[0070] S2': introducing a first reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the first reaction precursor when the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches a first time.
[0071] Specifically, after the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the source valve V3 is opened, and the first reaction precursor is introduced. When the first reaction precursor introduction time reaches the first time, the source valve V3 is closed, and the first reaction precursor is stopped. The first time is 0.1~10s, and the source mass of the first source bottle is determined according to the actual reaction precursor. In this process, the source valve V4 is closed, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is the preset opening, and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is 0%. Exemplarily, when the first reaction precursor is TMA (trimethylaluminum), the TMA source amount is 1~2mg, and the first time is 0.1~2s; when the first reaction precursor is Cu(acac)2 (copper acetylacetonate), the Cu(acac)2 source amount is 1~3mg, and the first time is 3~6s.
[0072] S3': the amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas pumped into the reaction chamber are changed in reverse periodicity, and when the time of the reverse periodicity reaches a second time, the reverse periodicity is stopped and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state.
[0073] The pressurized gas volume is the flow rate of the pressurized gas before it passes through the boost valve V2, and the suction volume is the suction volume of the vacuum pump.
[0074] When the amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas pumped into the reaction chamber change in reverse periodicity, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 change in reverse periodicity. When the time of reverse periodicity changes reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 stop changing in reverse periodicity. During this process, the source valve V3 and the source valve V4 are closed. The second time is 1 to 20 seconds.
[0075] When the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 decreases from the preset opening to 0%, and then increases from 0% to the preset opening, while the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 increases from 0% to the preset opening, and then decreases from the preset opening to 0%, it is called a reverse periodic change, and the time of a reverse periodic change is 1~20s, that is, the second time. When the time of the reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 remains at the preset opening, the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 remains at 0%, and the vacuum pump draws the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state.
[0076] S31': The opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 show continuous and synchronous reverse periodic changes. When the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 decreases from a preset opening to 0%, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 increases from 0% to the preset opening. When the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 increases from 0% to the preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 decreases from the preset opening to 0%. Exemplarily, the preset opening is 70-90%.
[0077] When the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 decreases, the flow of pressurized gas through the boost valve V2 decreases; when the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 increases, the flow of pressurized gas through the boost valve V2 increases. For example, taking the preset opening of 80% as an example, the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 decreases from 80% to 0%, and then increases from 0% to 80%; the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 increases from 0% to 80%, and then decreases from 80% to 0%.
[0078] S32': When the time of the reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is maintained at a preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is maintained at 0%, and the vacuum pump draws the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state.
[0079] Specifically, when the time of reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 stop reverse periodic change, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is maintained to a preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is maintained to 0%, and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state.
[0080] In some embodiments, after the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, a purging operation is further included. The inert gas purging process includes evacuating the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state and a purging operation. The purging operation is specifically purging the reaction chamber with an inert gas. The purging time is 5 to 10 seconds.
[0081] S4': introducing a second reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and when the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches a third time, stopping the introduction of the second reaction precursor.
[0082] Specifically, when the vacuum pump draws the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state, the source valve V4 is opened, and the second reaction precursor is introduced. When the second reaction precursor introduction time reaches the third time, the source valve V4 is closed, and the introduction of the second reaction precursor is stopped. The third time is 0.1-15s, and the source mass of the second source bottle is determined according to the actual reaction precursor. In this process, the source valve V3 is closed, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is the preset opening, and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is 0%. Exemplarily, when the second reaction precursor is H2O (liquid), the amount of H2O introduced is 1-3mg, and the third time is 0.1-2s; when the second reaction precursor is H2 (gaseous), the amount of H2 introduced is 3-6L, and the third time is 5-15s.
[0083] S5': the amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas pumped into the reaction chamber are changed in reverse periodicity, and when the time of the reverse periodicity reaches a second time, the reverse periodicity is stopped and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state.
[0084] When the amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas pumped into the reaction chamber change in reverse periodicity, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 change in reverse periodicity continuously and synchronously. When the time of reverse periodicity changes reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 stop changing in reverse periodicity. During this process, the source valve V3 and the source valve V4 are closed. The second time is 1 to 20 seconds.
[0085] When the time of the reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is maintained at the preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is maintained at 0%, and the vacuum pump draws the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state.
[0086] S51': The opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 change periodically in the opposite direction. When the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 decreases from a preset opening to 0%, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 increases from 0% to the preset opening. When the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 increases from 0% to the preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 decreases from the preset opening to 0%. Exemplarily, the preset opening is 70-90%.
[0087] When the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 decreases, the flow of pressurized gas through boost valve V2 decreases; when the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 increases, the flow of pressurized gas through boost valve V2 increases. For example, taking the preset opening of 80% as an example, the opening range of APC butterfly valve V6 is 80% to 0%, and then from 0% to 80%; the opening range of APC butterfly valve V7 is from 0% to 80%, and then from 80% to 0%.
[0088] S52': When the time of the reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 is maintained at a preset opening, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V7 is maintained at 0%, and the vacuum pump draws the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state.
[0089] Specifically, when the time of reverse periodic change reaches the second time, the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 and the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 stop reverse periodic change, the opening of APC butterfly valve V6 is maintained to a preset opening, the opening of APC butterfly valve V7 is maintained to 0%, and the reaction chamber is pumped back to a low vacuum state. After the reaction chamber reaches the low vacuum state, the reaction chamber is also purged with inert gas for 5 to 10 seconds.
[0090] Wherein, steps S2' to S5' constitute one deposition cycle. The number of deposition cycles is determined according to the target thickness of the required film, and steps S2' to S5' are repeated until a film of target thickness is obtained on the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device.
[0091] When the coating on the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device is completed, the vacuum pump is turned off, the vacuum angle valve V1 is turned off, the booster valve V2 is turned off, the source valve V3, the source valve V4, and the carrier valve V5 are turned off, the opening of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the APC butterfly valve V7 is 0%, and the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is opened to take out the high aspect ratio structure device. In some embodiments, the number of deposition cycles is 100 to 200 times.
[0092] The openings of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the APC butterfly valve V7 in the present application are controllable. After the reaction precursor enters the reaction chamber, the openings of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the APC butterfly valve V7 are adjusted, and the pressure in the reaction chamber increases and decreases. The openings of the APC butterfly valve V6 and the APC butterfly valve V7 are changed periodically in the opposite direction, so that the reaction precursor can effectively enter the deep holes of the high aspect ratio structural device, and at the same time, the disadvantage of insufficient diffusion of the reaction precursor in the structure of the high aspect ratio structural device is effectively avoided, and the phenomenon that the reaction precursor cannot be fully deposited in structures such as deep holes or channels of the high aspect ratio structural device is improved.
[0093] The following is a detailed explanation with reference to specific cases.
[0094] The structures of the high aspect ratio structural devices used in the following embodiments are all deep hole structures with an aspect ratio of 300:1, and the pressurized gas or carrier gas used in the following embodiments is any one of nitrogen, argon, helium, and neon. The pumping speed of the vacuum pump, the flow rate of the carrier gas, and the pressure value of pumping the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state in the following embodiments are all the same, and the same parameters are maintained during the deposition process of the high aspect ratio structural device.
[0095] Example 1 In this embodiment, the first reaction precursor is TMA (trimethylaluminum), and the second reaction precursor is H2O. The system device used in this embodiment is connected as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the flow rate of the pressurized gas in this embodiment is constant.
[0096] (1) Open the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber and place the high aspect ratio structure device. During this process, the vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, booster valve V2, source valve V3, source valve V4 and carrier valve V5 are closed; after placing the high aspect ratio structure device, close the door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber, and turn on the vacuum pump to evacuate the reaction chamber. At the same time, open the carrier valve V5, vacuum pump and vacuum angle valve V1, close the booster valve V2, and close the source valve V3 and source valve V4. The vacuum pump has a pumping speed of 600m 3 / h, the flow rate of carrier gas is 40sccm, the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, and the pressure value of the reaction chamber is 1torr. When the carrier gas valve V5 is closed, the carrier gas in the carrier gas pipeline pushes against the carrier gas valve V5, and when the booster valve V2 is closed, the booster gas in the booster gas pipeline pushes against the booster valve V2. Among them, the vacuum pump is turned on when the reaction chamber is evacuated, and is closed after the coating of the surface of the high aspect ratio structure device is completed.
[0097] (2) When the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the source valve V3 is opened to introduce the first reaction precursor. When the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches the first time, the source valve V3 is closed to stop introducing the first reaction precursor, wherein the first time is 0.2s, and the mass of the first source bottle is 1.5mg. During this process, the booster valve V2 is closed, the source valve V4 is closed, the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, the carrier gas valve V5 is opened, and the vacuum pump is turned on.
[0098] (3) When performing the pressurized diffusion treatment, a constant flow of pressurized gas is introduced into the reaction chamber and the reaction chamber is stopped from being evacuated at the same time, the pressurizing valve V2 is opened, the vacuum angle valve V1 is closed, and the pressurized gas is introduced. When the pressurized gas introduction time or the time of stopping the evacuation of the reaction chamber reaches a second time, the pressurized gas is stopped, the pressurizing valve V2 is closed, and the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened to evacuate the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state; wherein the second time is 5s, and the flow rate of the pressurized gas is 1000sccm. During this process, the source valves V3 and V4 remain closed, and the carrier gas valve V5 remains open.
[0099] When the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, the carrier gas valve V5, the vacuum pump and the vacuum angle valve V1 are opened, at which time the booster valve V2 is closed, and the source valve V3 and the source valve V4 are closed. After the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the reaction chamber is purged with an inert gas for 8 seconds.
[0100] (4) After the purge is completed, the source valve V4 is opened to introduce the second reaction precursor. When the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches the third time, the source valve V4 is closed to stop introducing the second reaction precursor; wherein the third time is 0.2s, and the mass of the second source bottle is 1.5mg. During this process, the booster valve V2 is closed, the source valve V3 is closed, the vacuum pump is opened, the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, and the carrier gas valve V5 is opened.
[0101] (5) When performing the pressurized diffusion treatment, a constant flow of pressurized gas is introduced into the reaction chamber and the reaction chamber is stopped from being evacuated at the same time, the pressurizing valve V2 is opened, the vacuum angle valve V1 is closed, and the pressurized gas is introduced. When the pressurized gas introduction time or the time of stopping the evacuation of the reaction chamber reaches a second time, the pressurized gas is stopped, the pressurizing valve V2 is closed, and the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened to evacuate the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state; wherein the second time is 5s, and the flow rate of the pressurized gas is 1000sccm. During this process, the source valves V3 and V4 remain closed, and the carrier gas valve V5 remains open.
[0102] When the reaction chamber is evacuated to a low vacuum state, the booster valve V2, source valve V3, and source valve V4 remain closed, and the vacuum pump, vacuum angle valve V1, and carrier gas valve V5 remain open. When the reaction chamber reaches a low vacuum state, the reaction chamber is also purged with an inert gas for 8 seconds.
[0103] Among them, steps (2) to (5) constitute one deposition cycle.
[0104] After 150 deposition cycles, the vacuum pump is turned off, the vacuum angle valve V1 is turned off, the boost valve V2 is turned off, the source valve V3 is turned off, the source valve V4 is turned off, and the carrier valve V5 is turned off. The door of the wafer loading platform in the reaction chamber is opened to take out the high aspect ratio structure device, on which the Al2O3 (aluminum oxide) film is deposited. Figure 6 The figure shows the pressure curve of the reaction chamber of the present embodiment, where t1 is the first time, t2 is the second time, t3 is the purge time, t4 is the third time, t5 is the second time, and t6 is the purge time. Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown.
[0105] Example 2 In this embodiment, the first reaction precursor is TMA, the second reaction precursor is H2O, and the system device used in this embodiment is connected as follows Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the amount of pressurized gas introduced into the reaction chamber and the amount of gas extracted from the reaction chamber vary in an inverse periodic manner.

The first time is 5s, and the mass of the first source bottle is 2mg. During this process, the source valve V4 is closed, the vacuum angle valve V1 is opened, the carrier gas valve V5 is opened, and the vacuum pump is turned on.

[0158] Taking Example 4 as an example, the influence of the percentage of Cu element inside the high aspect ratio structure device was tested by adjusting the opening of the butterfly valve. Fig.25 The horizontal axis is the preset opening of the APC butterfly valve, and the vertical axis is the percentage of Cu element (%). Fig.25 It can be seen that when the preset opening is 80%, the structural filling effect is best, and the percentage of Cu atoms in the deep hole structure of the high aspect ratio structure device is greater than 85%.

In this way, effective coating of the reaction precursor in the deep hole or channel structure of the high aspect ratio structural device can be achieved.
[0160] It can be seen from the above embodiments that the present application provides an atomic layer deposition coating method and system for high aspect ratio structural devices, the method comprising placing the high aspect ratio structural device in a reaction chamber, and evacuating the reaction chamber to a low vacuum state; introducing a first reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the first reaction precursor when the introduction time of the first reaction precursor reaches a first time; performing a pressurization diffusion treatment on the reaction chamber, stopping the pressurization diffusion treatment when the pressurization diffusion treatment time reaches a second time and evacuating the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state; introducing a second reaction precursor into the reaction chamber, and stopping the introduction of the second reaction precursor when the introduction time of the second reaction precursor reaches a third time; performing a pressurization diffusion treatment on the reaction chamber, stopping the pressurization diffusion treatment when the pressurization diffusion treatment time reaches a second time and evacuating the reaction chamber back to a low vacuum state, thereby completing the coating on the surface of the high aspect ratio structural device.
