Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing technology, and in particular to a method, device and electronic equipment for preparing a semiconductor metal interconnect structure. Background Art

[0002] In the process of semiconductor chip preparation, metal interconnection plays an important role. In this process, due to the low resistivity of metal aluminum Al and metal tungsten W, specifically, the resistivity of metal tungsten W is 8uΩ·cm (microohm·cm), and the resistivity of metal aluminum Al is 2.65uΩ·cm, so metal aluminum Al and metal tungsten W are often used in metal interconnection. Due to the excellent filling performance of metal tungsten W, it is widely used in the filling process of semiconductor back-end metal interconnection structure. Generally speaking, metal aluminum Al is usually used for planar wire connection in the back-end of semiconductor preparation due to its poor filling performance.

[0003] However, for larger hole filling widths, such as CD>1.4um (micrometers), hole filling depth>0.7um, and hole sidewall angle angle≥80° (degrees), if the hole is completely filled, the metal tungsten W needs to be thicker, and its stress will be too large, which will damage the semiconductor device structure and bring difficulties to the subsequent process. Although the stress and resistivity of metal aluminum Al are smaller, its filling performance is poor, so metal tungsten W or metal aluminum Al is used alone for filling. Summary of the invention

The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application claimed for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] In the process of preparing semiconductor chips, metal interconnection plays an important role. In the process of preparing semiconductor metal interconnection structure, due to the low resistivity of metal aluminum Al and metal tungsten W, specifically, the resistivity of metal tungsten W is 8uΩ·cm (microohm·cm), and the resistivity of metal aluminum Al is 2.65uΩ·cm, so metal aluminum Al and metal tungsten W are often used in metal interconnection. Due to the excellent filling performance of metal tungsten W, it is widely used in the filling process of semiconductor back-end metal interconnection structure. Generally speaking, metal aluminum Al is usually used for planar wire connection in the back-end of semiconductor preparation due to its poor filling performance.

[0022] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of using aluminum to prepare a semiconductor metal interconnect structure is shown. Figure 1As shown in (a1), a metal interconnect substrate ① is first formed by a preliminary exposure and etching process, a groove ② is formed on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ①, and the material of the metal interconnect substrate ① is silicon dioxide SiO2. Figure 1 As shown in (b1) in FIG. 1 , an adhesive material is deposited on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ① to form an adhesive isolation layer ③, such as Figure 1 As shown in (c1), metal aluminum Al is deposited on the upper surface of the adhesion isolation layer ③ to obtain a metal aluminum layer ④, thereby forming the metal interconnect structure shown in (c1). Specifically, the adhesion isolation layer ③ is composed of metal titanium Ti and titanium nitride TiN. The main function of metal titanium Ti is adhesion, and the function of titanium nitride TiN is to prevent aluminum fluoride from corroding the metal interconnect substrate during the deposition of metal aluminum.

[0023] Depend on Figure 1 As shown in (c1), due to the poor filling performance of metal aluminum Al, over-hang will occur when using metal aluminum Al to fill the groove, resulting in premature sealing of the filling process. That is, premature sealing is performed before the void Void is filled, forming a metal interconnect structure with a void Void inside as shown in (c1). After the metal interconnect structure shown in (c1) is subsequently exposed and etched, the void Void will leak out, which will seriously affect the performance of the semiconductor device.

[0024] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of using metal tungsten to prepare a semiconductor metal interconnect structure is shown. Figure 2 As shown in (a2) in FIG. 1 , a metal interconnect substrate ① is first formed by a preliminary exposure and etching process, and a groove ② is formed on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ①. Figure 2 As shown in (b2) in FIG. 1 , an adhesive material is deposited on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ① to form an adhesive isolation layer ③, such as Figure 2 As shown in (c2), metal tungsten W is deposited on the upper surface of the adhesion isolation layer ③ to fill the groove with metal tungsten W to obtain a metal tungsten layer ⑤, thereby forming the metal interconnection structure shown in (c2).

[0025] However, although the use of metal tungsten W to fill the trench has good filling performance, if metal tungsten W is used for larger trenches, such as a trench CD (Critical Dimension)>1.4um, trench depth>0.7um, and trench sidewall inclination angle angle≥80° (degrees), the thickness of the metal tungsten W is also required to be relatively large to completely fill the changed trench. In this way, the stress of the metal tungsten W is too large, which can easily cause the semiconductor device to crack or excessively warp, thereby damaging the semiconductor device. More seriously, due to the bending of the semiconductor device, it is very easy to make the subsequent process for the metal interconnect structure unable to proceed, which brings difficulties to the subsequent process.

[0026] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a semiconductor metal interconnect structure, by using metal tungsten and metal aluminum to fill the trench, thereby improving the filling performance and preventing damage to the semiconductor device, as follows: See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flow chart of a method for preparing a semiconductor metal interconnect structure provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 3 As shown, the method provided in the embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps: S100, performing photolithography on a preset semiconductor device to form a metal interconnection matrix.

[0027] Wherein, a groove is formed on the surface of the metal interconnection substrate.

[0028] S200, depositing metal tungsten and metal aluminum on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate in sequence to obtain a target semiconductor metal interconnect structure.

[0029] In step S100 to step S200, the trench is filled with metal tungsten and metal aluminum in combination, thereby improving the filling performance and preventing damage to the semiconductor device.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, step S200 includes: Metal tungsten is deposited on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate to form a metal tungsten layer, and the metal tungsten layer is subjected to an etching back process to obtain a structure to be processed formed by the metal tungsten layer located on the sidewall of the groove and the metal interconnect substrate, and metal aluminum is deposited on the surface of the structure to be processed to obtain a target semiconductor metal interconnect structure.

[0031] Preferably, the present application discloses a novel filling process in which metal tungsten W is first partially filled, then the groove morphology is regulated through a back etching process, and then the groove is filled with metal Al. In this way, the target semiconductor metal interconnect structure obtained by combining metal tungsten W and metal Al avoids the problem of insufficient filling and premature sealing caused by filling with metal aluminum Al alone, and also solves the problem of excessive warping of the semiconductor metal interconnect structure obtained by filling with metal tungsten W alone.

[0032] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a process for preparing a semiconductor metal interconnect structure provided by an embodiment of the present application. In step S100, as Figure 4 As shown, after preliminary exposure and etching treatment of the preset semiconductor device, a metal interconnect substrate ① as shown in (a3) ​​can be formed. The metal interconnect substrate ① is composed of silicon oxide, more specifically, silicon dioxide SiO2, and a groove ② is formed on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ①.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown in (b3), before executing step S200, the method further includes: An adhesion material is deposited on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ① to form an adhesion isolation layer ③ (red part) on the surface of the metal interconnect substrate ①, wherein the corresponding materials of the adhesion isolation layer ③ are metal titanium Ti and titanium nitride TiN.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown in (c3), step S200 includes: Metal tungsten W is deposited on the surface of the adhesion isolation layer ③ to fill the groove with the metal tungsten W to obtain a metal tungsten layer ⑤.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown in (d) in FIG. 1 , step S300 includes: According to the preset etching process standard Figure 4 The metal tungsten layer ⑤ in the structure shown in (c3) is etched back to obtain the target metal tungsten structure layer ⑦ in the structure shown in (d).

[0036] Preferably, the target metal tungsten structure layer ⑦ is a metal tungsten layer located on the surface of the adhesion isolation layer at the sidewall of the trench.

[0037] Specifically, for grooves of different morphologies, different back-etching process standards need to be determined in advance according to actual needs. Specifically, the back-etching process standards include multiple back-etching process parameters, and the multiple back-etching process parameters include but are not limited to at least one of the following items: the metal tungsten etching depth and the retention angle corresponding to the metal tungsten layer on the groove sidewall. Generally speaking, the smaller the retention angle, the lower the metal tungsten etching depth value, and the more conducive to the use of metal aluminum Al for subsequent filling.

[0038] Therefore, based on the metal tungsten etching depth indicated by the etch-back process standard, the metal tungsten layer located on the surface of the adhesion isolation layer at the bottom of the trench can be divided into two categories: complete removal and partial removal.

[0039] It is composed of a metal interconnect substrate ①, an adhesion isolation layer ② and a target metal tungsten structure layer ⑦. Figure 4 The target structure to be processed is shown in (d).

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown in (e) in the figure, metal aluminum Al is deposited on the surface of the target structure to be processed to obtain the target semiconductor metal interconnect structure as shown in (e).

[0041] By Figure 4 It can be seen that the target semiconductor metal interconnect structure formed by the method of the present application also has corresponding voids, but compared with Figure 1 By simply using metal aluminum Al for deposition, the hole area is greatly reduced, thus avoiding the problems caused by over-hang of metal aluminum deposition to a great extent.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 The first mapping relationship curve between the thickness of the metal tungsten layer and the warpage of the semiconductor during the trench filling process provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 6 , Figure 6 A second mapping relationship curve between the thickness of the metal aluminum layer and the semiconductor warpage during the trench filling process provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0043] Specifically, Figure 5 , the horizontal axis x1 represents the thickness of the metal tungsten layer, the unit is nm (nanometer), the vertical axis Y BOW1 Indicates the semiconductor warpage, in um (micrometer), where the first mapping relationship curve is represented by Y BOW1 =0.5395x1+136.52.

[0044] Specifically, a warpage test may be performed on the metal tungsten material in advance to obtain actual warpage test data corresponding to the metal tungsten. The actual warpage test data includes a plurality of warpage test samples, each of which includes the thickness of the metal tungsten and its corresponding semiconductor warpage value, for example Figure 5 The coordinate system shows 7 warpage test samples from left to right ( Figure 5 Middle dots), including (250nm, 255.9um), (300nm, 290.1um), (500nm, 437.4um), (800nm, 570um), (850nm, 593.9um), (900nm, 626um) and (1100nm, 717.8um).

[0045] Using multiple warpage test samples for fitting, the first mapping relationship curve is represented by Y BOW1 =0.5395x1+136.52, such as Figure 5 The curve ML shown is the Y curve fitted by multiple warpage test samples. BOW1 =0.5395x1+136.52 corresponding relationship curve.

[0046] like Figure 6 is the second mapping relationship curve between the thickness of the metal aluminum layer and the warpage of the semiconductor device. The horizontal axis x2 represents the thickness of the metal aluminum layer in nm (nanometers), and the vertical axis Y BOW2 represents the semiconductor warpage, in um (micrometer), where the second mapping relationship curve is represented by Y BOW2 =0.0009x2+35.894.

[0047] Through the first mapping relationship curve and the second mapping relationship curve, it can be clearly determined that metal aluminum Al and metal tungsten W have corresponding different degrees of warping at different thicknesses. The user can determine the deposition thickness of metal tungsten and metal aluminum based on the first mapping curve and the second mapping curve according to actual conditions.

[0048] See also Figure 7 , Figure 7 The scanning electron microscope images of metal aluminum deposition under different metal tungsten layer thicknesses provided in the embodiment of the present application are shown. In the process of forming a semiconductor metal interconnect structure using the method provided in the embodiment of the present application: like Figure 7 (G1) is a low-magnification scanning electron microscope image of metal aluminum deposition with a metal tungsten layer thickness of 4000 angstroms, as shown in Figure 7 (G2) in the figure is a partial enlarged schematic diagram of (G1). As shown in (G2), when the thickness of the metal tungsten layer is 4000 angstroms, the top sealing rate is 1 / 4, the hole is located in the groove, and the retention angle of the target metal tungsten structure layer located on the right side of the groove is 78.3°.

[0049] like Figure 7 (G3) is a low-magnification scanning electron microscope image of aluminum deposition under a 5000 angstrom metal tungsten layer thickness. Figure 7 (G4) in the figure is a partial enlarged schematic diagram of (G3). As shown in (G3), when the thickness of the metal tungsten layer is 5000 angstroms, the top sealing rate is 3 / 4, the hole is located in the groove, and the retention angle of the target metal tungsten structure layer located on the right side of the groove is 77°.

[0050] As Figure 7 (G5) is a low-magnification scanning electron microscope image of aluminum deposition under a 6000 angstrom metal tungsten layer thickness. Figure 7 (G6) in the figure is a partial enlarged schematic diagram of (G5). As shown in (G6), when the thickness of the metal tungsten layer is 6000 angstroms, the top sealing rate is 4 / 4, the hole is located above the groove, and the angle of the target metal tungsten structure layer on the right side of the groove is 61°.

[0051] It can be seen from (G1) to (G3) that the larger the retention angle corresponding to the target metal tungsten structure layer, the less conducive it is to filling, and the smaller the retention angle, the more conducive it is to filling.
