[0029] The technical solution of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Although the exemplary implementation methods of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the implementation methods described here. On the contrary, these implementation methods are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art.

[0030] The present disclosure is described in more detail in the following paragraphs by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present disclosure will become more apparent from the following description and claims. It should be noted that the drawings are in very simplified form and in non-precise proportions, and are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the purpose of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0031] It will be understood that the meaning of “on,” “over,” and “over” of the present disclosure should be interpreted in the broadest manner, so that “on” not only means that it is “on” something with no intervening features or layers (i.e., directly on something), but also includes the meaning that it is “on” something with intervening features or layers.

[0032] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0033] In the disclosed embodiments, the term "layer" refers to a material portion including an area having a thickness. A layer may extend over the entirety of a lower or upper structure, or may have an extent less than the extent of a lower or upper structure. In addition, a layer may be an area of ​​a homogeneous or inhomogeneous continuous structure having a thickness less than the thickness of a continuous structure. For example, a layer may be located between the top and bottom surfaces of a continuous structure, or a layer may be between any horizontal faces at the top and bottom surfaces of a continuous structure. A layer may extend horizontally, vertically, and / or along an inclined surface. A layer may include multiple sublayers.

[0034] It should be noted that the technical solutions described in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be arbitrarily combined without conflict.

[0035] A three-dimensional dynamic random access memory generally includes bit lines, transistors, and capacitors stacked on a substrate. Taking a semiconductor structure including horizontal bit lines and vertical word lines as an example, there is parasitic capacitance between the stacked bit lines in the vertical direction. When the number of stacked bits is large, the presence of parasitic capacitance is likely to affect the overall electrical performance of the semiconductor structure, and even cause the semiconductor structure to fail to work. Therefore, how to improve the integration of semiconductor structures and eliminate parasitic capacitance in stacked structures has always been a problem that needs to be solved in the field.

[0036] Based on this, in order to solve the above problems, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a semiconductor structure and a method for preparing the same.

[0037] Figure 1 is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a semiconductor structure according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2 is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a semiconductor structure according to another exemplary embodiment. Figure 3A is based on Figure 2 A schematic top view of a semiconductor structure is shown.

Figure 5 is based on Figure 4 A schematic diagram of a semiconductor structure shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 5 The semiconductor structure will be described.

[0038] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the semiconductor structure includes a wire stacking structure CL, the wire stacking structure CL includes a plurality of wire layers 110 spaced apart along a vertical direction D3, the wire layer 110 includes a first wire portion 110a and a second wire portion 110b, and the wire layer 110 extends along a first direction D1; a storage structure MG located on one side of the wire stacking structure CL along a second direction D2, the storage structure MG being electrically connected to the first wire portion 110a; a contact plug 210 located on the other side of the wire stacking structure CL along the second direction D2, the contact plug 210 being electrically connected to the first wire portion 110a; and a shielding structure 310, the shielding structure 310 being at least sandwiched between adjacent second wire portions 110b in the vertical direction D3.

[0039] In the semiconductor structure provided by the present disclosure, on the first hand, by providing a contact plug electrically connected to the first wire portion along the second direction, it is possible to avoid the formation of an additional step structure region for connecting each layer of wire layers, thereby effectively improving the integration of the semiconductor structure. On the second hand, by providing a shielding structure coupled to the second wire portion, it is possible to effectively reduce the parasitic capacitance between the wire layers and reduce the signal interference between adjacent wire layers, thereby improving the overall electrical performance of the semiconductor structure. On the third hand, by integrating both the contact plug and the shielding structure in the area where the wire layer is located, it is possible to further improve the integration of the semiconductor structure and ensure the reliability of the semiconductor structure.

[0040] In some embodiments, the semiconductor structure is formed on a substrate 100, and the material of the substrate 100 includes a semiconductor material, for example, a single-element semiconductor material (for example, silicon (Si) or germanium (Ge), etc.), a III-V compound semiconductor material (for example, gallium nitride (GaN), gallium arsenide (GaAs) or indium phosphide (InP), etc.), a II-VI compound semiconductor material (for example, zinc sulfide (ZnS), cadmium sulfide (CdS) or cadmium telluride (CdTe), etc.), an organic semiconductor material, or other semiconductor materials known in the art.

[0041] In some embodiments, the plurality of wire layers 110 included in the wire stack structure CL can be used as bit lines in a three-dimensional dynamic random access memory. In other examples, the wire layer 110 can be a word line in a three-dimensional dynamic random access memory. The wire layer 110 extends along a first direction D1 parallel to the plane where the substrate 100 is located, and the plurality of wire layers 110 are arranged at intervals along a third direction D3 perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 100 is located. The material of the wire layer 110 can be a conductive material including a semiconductor material (e.g., doped polysilicon), a metal (e.g., tungsten (W), titanium (Ti), tantalum (Ta), ruthenium (Ru), cobalt (Co), molybdenum (Mo), etc.), a conductive metal nitride (e.g., titanium nitride, tantalum nitride, etc.) and a metal semiconductor compound (e.g., tungsten silicide, cobalt silicide, titanium silicide, etc.). The wire layer 110 can also be a multilayer structure, for example, the wire layer 110 can be a double-layer structure composed of a metal semiconductor compound and a conductive metal nitride.

[0042] In some embodiments, the wire layer 110 includes a first wire portion 110a and a second wire portion 110b, wherein the second wire portion 110b may be located at at least one end of the first wire portion 110a along the first direction D1, for example, the second wire portion 110b may be located at both ends of the first wire portion 110a along the first direction. The projection of the first wire portion 110a along the second direction D2 coincides with the projection of the storage structure MG along the second direction, the size of the first wire portion 110a along the first direction D1 is less than or equal to the size of the storage structure MG along the first direction D1, and the projection of the second wire portion 110b along the second direction D2 does not coincide with or only partially coincides with the projection of the storage structure MG along the second direction D2.

[0043] In one example, the projection of the second wire portion 110b along the second direction D2 only overlaps with the projections of two columns of memory cells MC located at both ends of the first direction D1 in the memory structure MG along the second direction D2, but does not at least partially overlap with the projections of the memory cells MC located in the middle column in the memory structure MG along the second direction D2, wherein a column of memory cells MC refers to a plurality of memory cells MC stacked in the vertical direction D3.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first wire portion 110a can be located at both ends of the second wire portion 110b along the first direction D1, and the projection of the second wire portion 110b along the second direction D2 falls into the projection of the storage structure MG along the second direction D2, that is, the size of the second wire portion 110b along the first direction D1 is smaller than the size of the storage structure MG along the first direction D1.

[0045] In some embodiments, the storage structure MG includes a storage layer ML located at the same layer as each wire layer 110, the storage layer ML includes a plurality of storage cells MC arranged at intervals along the first direction D1, each storage cell MC includes a transistor structure 120 and a capacitor structure 130, and one end of the transistor structure 120 along the second direction D2 is electrically connected to the corresponding first wire portion 110a, and the other end is electrically connected to the capacitor structure 130.

[0046] The transistor structure 120 includes a first source and drain 122, a second source and drain 124, and a channel layer 123 located between the first source and drain 122 and the second source and drain 124. The transistor structure 120 also includes a word line structure 121. The first source and drain 122, the channel layer 123, and the second source and drain 124 may be arranged in sequence along the second direction D2, and the word line structure 121 may extend along the vertical direction D3 and be coupled to the channel layer 123. The word line structure 121 includes a word line dielectric layer and a word line conductive layer, the word line dielectric layer is located between the word line conductive layer and the channel layer 123, and the word line structure 121 may cover at least one sidewall of the channel layer 123 to form a single-gate transistor, a double-gate transistor, or a full-ring gate transistor. The conductive layer 110 is electrically connected to one of the first source and drain 122 and the second source and drain 124 as a bit line, and the capacitor structure 130 is electrically connected to the other of the first source and drain 122 and the second source and drain 124. The capacitor structure may be a columnar capacitor structure or a cylindrical capacitor structure, wherein the capacitor structure includes a lower electrode, a capacitor dielectric layer, and an upper electrode. The materials of the lower electrode and the upper electrode include metal materials, for example, Ti, Ta, W, Cu, Al, TiN, TaN, or a combination thereof, and the capacitor dielectric layer may be a high dielectric constant material, such as hafnium oxide, zirconium oxide, aluminum oxide, lanthanum oxide, titanium oxide, tantalum oxide, niobium oxide, or strontium titanate. In other examples, the memory cell MC may also be other types of memory cells, such as a phase change memory cell, a resistive memory cell, and the like.

[0047] In some embodiments, the contact plugs 210 and the memory structure MG are respectively located on both sides of the conductive line stack structure CL along the second direction D2. The number of the contact plugs 210 is proportional to the number of layers of the memory structure MG. For example, if a plurality of contact plugs 210 are coupled to a plurality of memory layers ML in a one-to-one correspondence, the number of the contact plugs 210 is the same as the number of layers of the memory structure MG. Figure 1In the figure, three contact plugs 210 and three memory layers ML are used as examples for illustration. The actual number of contact plugs 210 and the number of layers of the memory structure MG may be greater. A plurality of contact plugs 210 are arranged at intervals along the first direction D1, and the projection of each contact plug 210 along the second direction D2 may be staggered or only partially overlapped with the projection of each memory cell MC along the second direction D2 along the first direction D1. A plurality of contact plugs 210 are electrically connected to a plurality of first wire portions 110a in a one-to-one correspondence, that is, the first wire portion 110a of each wire layer 110 is electrically connected to a corresponding contact plug 210. The heights of the plurality of contact plugs 210 in the vertical direction D3 are all different. For example, the top surfaces of the plurality of contact plugs 210 are flush with each other, but the bottom surface of each contact plug 210 is flush with the wire layer 110 located at the same layer. The plurality of contact plugs 210 electrically connected to the conductive line stacking structure CL form a stepped structure without forming the conductive line stacking structure CL into a stepped structure, which can save the occupied area of ​​the semiconductor structure in the first direction D1 and improve the integration of the semiconductor structure.

[0048] In some embodiments, the contact plug 210 includes a vertical conductive portion 211 and a conductive connection portion 212, the conductive connection portion 212 contacts the corresponding first wire portion 110a, the size of the conductive connection portion 212 in the second direction D2 is larger than the size of the vertical conductive portion 211 in the second direction D2, and the vertical conductive portion 211 does not contact the first wire portion 110a. The size of the conductive connection portion 212 in the first direction D1 may also be larger than the size of the vertical conductive portion 211 in the first direction D1, that is, the projection of the vertical conductive portion 211 on the substrate 100 is located within the projection of the corresponding conductive connection portion 212 on the substrate 100. It can be understood that the wire layer 110 located at the same layer as the contact plug 210 refers to the wire layer 110 located at the same layer as the conductive connection portion 212 in the contact plug 210, that is, the wire layer 110 electrically connected to the contact plug 210. The material of the contact plug 210 includes a conductive material, and the material of the contact plug 210 may be the same as the material of the wire layer 110.

[0049] In some embodiments, the shielding structure 310 is located only between the second wire portions 110 b adjacent to each other in the vertical direction D3 and not between the first wire portions 110 a . The projection of the shielding structure 310 on the substrate 100 covers the projection of the second wire portions 110 b on the substrate 100 .

[0050] In some embodiments, the shielding structure 310 includes a conductive shielding layer 310a and a dielectric shielding layer 310b sandwiched between the conductive shielding layer 310a and the second wire portion 110b, and the dielectric shielding layer 310b conformally covers the surface of the second wire portion 110b. The dielectric shielding layer 310b at least covers the top and bottom surfaces of the second wire portion 110b, and the dielectric shielding layer 310b may also cover part of the side surface of the second wire portion 110b. The dielectric shielding layer 310b can prevent the conductive shielding layer 310a from short-circuiting with the second wire portion 110b.

[0051] In some embodiments, the material of the conductive shielding layer 310a includes a conductive material, and the material of the dielectric shielding layer 310b includes an insulating material, such as a low dielectric constant material such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon carbide, silicon carbide nitride or silicon oxynitride. The shielding structure 310 and the second conductor portion 110b form a MIM (Metal-Insulator-Metal) shielding capacitor. Since the capacitance of the MIM shielding capacitor itself is relatively small, the parasitic capacitance between the second conductor portions 110b can be reduced.

[0052] In some embodiments, the shielding structure 310 may extend along the vertical direction D3, for example, the shielding structure 310 includes an integrally formed vertical shielding portion 311 and a horizontal shielding portion 312, wherein the vertical shielding portion 311 extends along the vertical direction D3, and the horizontal shielding portion 312 is protruded from the side wall of the vertical shielding portion 311 along the second direction D2 and is located between adjacent second wire portions 110b in the vertical direction D3. The parasitic capacitance between all wire layers 110 in the wire stacking structure CL is reduced by a shielding structure 310, thereby improving the control efficiency of the shielding structure 310.

[0053] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3A and 3B As shown, the projection of the wire layer 110 on the substrate 100 is annular, and the wire layer 110 includes two first wire portions 110a arranged in parallel along the second direction D2, and two second wire portions 110b are respectively connected to the two ends of the two first wire portions 110a; the storage structure MG includes a first storage structure MG1 and a second storage structure MG2, and the first storage structure MG1 and the second storage structure MG2 are respectively located on the opposite sides of the two first wire portions 110a in the wire stacking structure CL and are mirror-symmetrical along the axis of the first direction D1. The storage structure MG and the contact plug 210 are respectively located on the outside and inside of the annular wire layer 110, and the shielding structure 310 is also located on the inside of the annular wire layer 110.

[0054] In some embodiments, the second conductor portion 110b includes a first sub-portion 110b1, a second sub-portion 110b2 and a third sub-portion 110b3 which are connected in sequence, the first sub-portion 110b1 and the third sub-portion 110b3 are respectively connected to the two first conductor portions 110a, and the first sub-portion 110b1, the second sub-portion 110b2 and the third sub-portion 110b3 surround a first groove C1; the vertical shielding portion 311 of the shielding structure 310 is located in the first groove C1 and extends along the vertical direction D3, and the horizontal shielding portion 312 is located between adjacent second conductor portions 110b in the vertical direction D3.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first wire portion 110a and the second wire portion 110b are alternately connected in sequence to form an annular structure, and the contact plug 210 is located in a strip-shaped groove enclosed by the annular structure, and is connected to the two first wire portions 110a on both sides of the same layer. The projection of the second wire portion 110b on the substrate 100 is U-shaped, so that the first wire portion 110a electrically connected to the first storage structure MG1 and the first wire portion 110a electrically connected to the second storage structure MG2 are electrically connected to each other, and the first storage structure MG1 and the second storage structure MG2 share the wire layer 110 to improve the control efficiency of the storage structure. The storage layers ML on both sides of it on the same layer can be controlled by one contact plug 210, so that the number of contact plugs 210 can be reduced.
