[0060] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0061] The following is an explanation of the relevant technologies:
[0062] As dynamic random access memory (DRAM) shrinks, its capacitors need to meet both high capacitance and low leakage requirements, and the selection of dielectric materials becomes particularly critical. The ideal dielectric material needs to meet both high dielectric constant (k>100) and low leakage (<10e -7 A / cm 2 ), physical thickness <10nm. However, when the dielectric material is deposited on the metal lower electrode, the oxygen source introduced will cause the surface of the metal lower electrode to oxidize and form an interface layer. The interface layer of the dielectric capacitor will affect the quality of the dielectric film, thereby affecting the capacitor performance, such as leakage current, dielectric constant, etc.
[0063] Hafnium oxide (HfO2)-based ferroelectric memory devices (such as ferroelectric field effect transistors FeFET and ferroelectric random access memory FeRAM) have attracted extensive attention from academia and industry for their advantages such as fast read and write speed, low power consumption, high integration potential, and non-volatility, and are considered to be one of the most promising new memories in the post-Moore era. However, this type of device faces many challenges, one of which is that when the ferroelectric layer is deposited on the metal lower electrode, the oxygen source introduced causes the surface of the metal lower electrode to oxidize and form an interface layer. The interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor will induce lattice dislocation of the subsequently grown ferroelectric layer, increase defects, generate a depolarization field, and intensify charge injection into the ferroelectric layer, thereby affecting the performance of the ferroelectric memory device (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics).
[0064] Therefore, for memory devices (such as 1T1C structure, that is, the storage unit of the memory includes a transistor and a capacitor), whether it is a dielectric capacitor or a ferroelectric capacitor, there is an interface layer problem, that is, when depositing the dielectric layer of the capacitor (such as the dielectric layer or the ferroelectric layer), the oxygen source introduced will cause the surface of the metal lower electrode to oxidize, forming an interface layer, which will seriously affect the performance of the device.
[0065] In addition, for storage devices, whether it is a dielectric capacitor or a ferroelectric capacitor, its electrode material is usually an oxygen-philic metal material. During the annealing process of forming a high dielectric constant phase (dielectric capacitor) or a ferroelectric phase (such as FeRAM or FeFET), or during the subsequent use of the device, the oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer (dielectric capacitor) or the ferroelectric layer (such as FeRAM or FeFET) will be absorbed by the metal electrode, causing the oxygen atoms to diffuse to the interface where the metal electrode contacts the dielectric layer (or the interface where the metal electrode contacts the ferroelectric layer), or even diffuse into the interior of the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer (or ferroelectric layer), and ultimately leading to device performance degradation.
[0066] The semiconductor device and its manufacturing method, and the electronic device provided in the present application are intended to solve at least one of the above technical problems in the prior art.
[0067] The following is a detailed description of the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above technical problems with specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following implementations can refer to, draw on or combine with each other, and the same terms, similar features and similar implementation steps in different implementations will not be described repeatedly.

Figures 9 to 12 Shows Figure 8 The schematic diagram of the structure of the semiconductor device in different processes in the manufacturing method shown in FIG. Figure 6 and Fig.12 1 and 2 show schematic diagrams of structures of different specific examples of a semiconductor device provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 and Fig.12As shown, the semiconductor device 100 includes: a substrate 10, a dielectric layer 22, a first conductive layer 21 and a second conductive layer 23, the dielectric layer 22 is located on one side of the substrate 10, and the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms; the first conductive layer 21 is located on the side of the dielectric layer 22 close to the substrate 10; the second conductive layer 23 is located on the side of the dielectric layer 22 away from the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the second conductive layer 23 on the substrate 10 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first conductive layer 21 on the substrate 10.
[0069] The semiconductor device 100 further includes: a first isolation layer 24 and a second isolation layer 25, wherein the first isolation layer 24 is located between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 and contacts the dielectric layer 22, wherein the material of the first isolation layer 24 includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms, wherein the bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is smaller than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms; and the second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 and contacts the dielectric layer 22, wherein the material of the second isolation layer 25 includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms, wherein the bond energy between the third metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is smaller than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms.
[0070] Bond Energy is a physical quantity that characterizes the strength of a chemical bond. It can be measured by the amount of energy required to break a bond, and the energy unit can be kJ / mol.
[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the substrate 10 supports the dielectric layer 22 , the first conductive layer 21 , the second conductive layer 23 , the first isolation layer 24 and the second isolation layer 25 .
[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes oxygen atoms and the first metal atoms, and the material of the first isolation layer 24 includes oxygen atoms and the second metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the first isolation layer 24) between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22, not only can the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 be isolated, but also the surface of the first conductive layer 21 is prevented from being oxidized to form an interface layer during the formation of the dielectric layer 22, so that no interface layer is formed on the surface of the first conductive layer 21 facing the dielectric layer 22, thereby solving the problems of the interface layer of the dielectric capacitor affecting the capacitance performance in the prior art, and solving the problem of the interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor affecting the ferroelectric capacitor in the prior art. The performance of the semiconductor device (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics) can be improved; the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 can be prevented from directly contacting each other, thereby inhibiting the first conductive layer 21 from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22 and inhibiting the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, leading to degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer 22 to reduce oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer) and preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.
[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the second isolation layer 25 includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the second isolation layer 25) between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, not only can the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 be isolated, so that the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 are not in direct contact, but also the second conductive layer 23 is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, and the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 is inhibited, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer 22 and oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 can be reduced, thereby providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer) and preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.
[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, by disposing a first isolation layer 24 between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 and disposing a second isolation layer 25 between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 , the performance of the semiconductor device can be improved.
[0075] In the embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, the bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is less than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms, and the oxygen atoms in the first isolation layer 24 easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, fill some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.
[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, the bond energy between the third metal atom and the oxygen atom is less than the bond energy between the first metal atom and the oxygen atom, and the oxygen atoms in the second isolation layer 25 easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, fill some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.
[0077] Optionally, the material of the substrate 10 includes but is not limited to Si, SiGex and the like.
[0078] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is conductive; the second isolation layer 25 is conductive.

The first isolation layer 24 is located between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22, the first isolation layer 24 is conductive, and the first conductive layer 21 and the first isolation layer 24 form a first electrode 31. The second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, the second isolation layer 25 is conductive, and the second isolation layer 25 and the second conductive layer 23 form a second electrode 32. The first electrode 31, the dielectric layer 22, and the second electrode 32 form a capacitor 30.

In this way, the thickness between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 can be characterized by the thickness of the dielectric layer 22, avoiding the problem of setting the first isolation layer 24 and / or the second isolation layer 25 as the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22, resulting in an increase in the thickness of the insulating medium, causing a decrease in the capacitance of the capacitor, and causing the technical problem of degradation of the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer. Through this setting, the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor can be made smaller, that is, the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor is smaller, which can increase the capacitance of the capacitor and prevent the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer from being degraded.
[0081] In the embodiment of the present application, the dielectric layer 22 is an insulating medium, so that there is no electrical conduction between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 .

Optionally, the material of the substrate passivation layer is, for example, SiO x , SiON, etc.
[0179] Forming the second isolation layer 25 includes: depositing a second metal oxide layer having conductivity on a side of the dielectric layer 22 away from the substrate 10 to serve as the second isolation layer 25 .

[0198] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms, and the material of the first isolation layer includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the first isolation layer) between the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer, not only can the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer be isolated, but also the surface of the first conductive layer is prevented from being oxidized to form an interface layer during the formation of the dielectric layer, so that no interface layer is formed on the surface of the first conductive layer facing the dielectric layer, thereby solving the problem of the interface layer of the dielectric capacitor affecting the capacitance performance in the prior art, and solving the problem of the interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor affecting the ferroelectric semiconductor in the prior art. The performance of the bulk device (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics) can be improved; the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer can be prevented from directly contacting each other, thereby inhibiting the first conductive layer from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer and inhibiting the formation of more oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, and leading to degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the first isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer to reduce oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer) and preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.
[0199] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the second isolation layer includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the second isolation layer) between the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer, not only can the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer be isolated, so that the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer are not in direct contact, but also the second conductive layer is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer, and the formation of more oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer is inhibited, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, and leading to degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the second isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer and oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer can be reduced, thereby providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer) and preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.
[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing a first isolation layer between the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer, and providing a second isolation layer between the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer, the performance of the semiconductor device can be improved.
[0201] In the embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, the bond energy between the second metal atom and the oxygen atom is less than the bond energy between the first metal atom and the oxygen atom, and the oxygen atoms in the first isolation layer can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer, fill part of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, and provide oxygen for the dielectric layer, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.
[0202] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, the bond energy between the third metal atom and the oxygen atom is less than the bond energy between the first metal atom and the oxygen atom, and the oxygen atoms in the second isolation layer easily diffuse into the dielectric layer to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.
[0203] In the embodiment of the present application, the first conductive layer is set to form a first electrode together with the first isolation layer, the second isolation layer is set to form a second electrode together with the second conductive layer, the dielectric layer forms an insulating medium of the capacitor, and the first isolation layer and the second isolation layer are not set to form an insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer. In this way, the thickness between the first electrode and the second electrode can be characterized by the thickness of the dielectric layer, thereby avoiding the problem of setting the first isolation layer and / or the second isolation layer as an insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer, which increases the thickness of the insulating medium and reduces the capacitance of the capacitor, and the technical problem of causing the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer to degrade. Through this arrangement, the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor can be made smaller, that is, the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor is smaller, which can increase the capacitance of the capacitor and prevent the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer from degrading.
