Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing technology, specifically to a MIM capacitor and its fabrication method. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of image sensor (CIS) technology, the demand for high dynamic range is increasing, and LOFIC (Lateral Overflow Capacitor) technology can effectively solve this problem. Currently, in traditional planar high dielectric constant (High K) MIM capacitors, using a metal oxide layer (such as aluminum oxide, hafnium oxide, etc.) deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) as the dielectric layer allows the capacitance density of the MIM capacitor to reach 3 fF / µm. 2 ~7fF / um 2 Those skilled in the art have found that the capacitance density performance of three-dimensional MIM capacitors (groove MIM capacitors) is 3 to 8 times higher than that of traditional planar High K MIM capacitors.
[0003] However, the weak points in the three-dimensional MIM capacitor process often occur at the interface of the trench sidewalls after the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process removes the excess upper metal electrode material layer (the CMP step of removing the excess upper metal electrode material layer occurs after the upper metal electrode material layer / body metal material layer is filled in the trench). The top of the lower metal electrode layer on the trench sidewall and the top of the metal ion barrier layer (e.g., TiN layer) on the trench sidewall are easily damaged by the chemical mechanical polishing process, causing the device's reliability TDDB (time breakdown) to fail prematurely at the weak points of the three-dimensional MIM capacitor, thus affecting the device's reliability and electrical performance.

Next, the spin-coated material layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer and a portion of the spin-coated material layer in the trench are removed. Then, the diffusion suppression layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer and the diffusion suppression layer on the trench sidewall not covered by the spin-coated material layer are etched back to remove them, ensuring that the top of the diffusion suppression layer does not exceed the top of the trench. Subsequently, an insulating layer is formed on the remaining diffusion suppression layer in the trench, the trench sidewall not covered by the diffusion suppression layer, and the surface of the first interlayer dielectric layer.

[0037] Preferably, after the diffusion inhibition layer 50 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 and the diffusion inhibition layer 50 on the sidewall of the trench 41 that is not covered by the remaining thickness of the spin-coated material layer 61, the height of the remaining diffusion inhibition layer 50 on the sidewall of the trench 41 is 10% to 30% of the total depth of the trench 41.
[0038] Next, proceed to step S7: (Refer to...) Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the semiconductor structure after removing the remaining thickness of the spin-coated material layer 61 in the trench 41 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0039] Preferably, the remaining thickness of the spin-coated material layer 61 in the trench 41 is removed by an ashing process or a dry etching process.
[0040] Further, proceed to step S8: (Refer to...) Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the semiconductor structure after the formation of the insulating layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. An insulating layer 70 is formed, which covers the remaining diffusion suppression layer 50 in the trench 41, the sidewalls of the trench 41 not covered by the diffusion suppression layer 50, and the surface of the first interlayer dielectric layer 40.

[0044] Preferably, the insulating layer 70 covers the top of the remaining diffusion suppression layer 50 in the trench 41.
[0045] Next, proceed to step S9: (Refer to...) Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the semiconductor structure after the formation of the main metal material layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. The main metal material layer 80 is formed, and the main metal material layer 80 fills the trench 41 and the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40.
[0046] In this embodiment, the main metal material layer 80 is made of copper.
[0047] Preferably, the host metal material layer 80 is formed using a physical vapor deposition process.
[0048] Finally, proceed to step S10: (Refer to...) Figure 11 , Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the semiconductor structure after the main metal material layer extending beyond the upper surface of the insulating layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer and the main metal material layer extending beyond the top of the trench are removed by grinding according to an embodiment of the present invention. A chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process is used to remove the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the upper surface of the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 and the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the top of the trench 41, so that the upper surface of the main metal material layer 80 in the trench 41 is flush with the upper surface of the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40. The diffusion suppression layer 50, the insulating layer 70, and the main metal material layer 80 constitute a trench MIM capacitor. Specifically, the diffusion suppression layer 50 is the lower electrode of the trench MIM capacitor, the insulating layer 70 is the intermediate dielectric layer of the MIM capacitor, and the main metal material layer 80 is the upper electrode of the trench MIM capacitor.
[0049] In other embodiments, during the process of using chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) to remove the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the upper surface of the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 and the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the top of the trench 41, CMP can also be used to over-polish and remove the insulating layer 70 and a portion of the thickness of the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40. However, it is necessary to ensure that the top of the diffusion suppression layer 50 and the insulating layer 70 at the top of the diffusion suppression layer 50 are not polished, so that the insulating layer 70 can cover the top of the diffusion suppression layer 50, thereby preventing the diffusion suppression layer 50 from being accidentally polished. This eliminates the weak points at the top of the trench sidewall of the subsequent trench MIM capacitor, improving the reliability and electrical performance of the device.
[0050] Further reference Figure 12 , Figure 12 This is a schematic diagram of the semiconductor structure after the formation of the conductive plug material layer according to an embodiment of the present invention. After grinding away the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the upper surface of the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 and the main metal material layer 80 extending beyond the top of the trench 41, the method for fabricating the MIM capacitor may further include: Step S11: Form a second barrier layer 91, which covers the insulating layer 70 and the main metal material layer 80; Step S12: Form a second interlayer dielectric layer 92, which covers the second barrier layer 91; Step S13: Etch the second interlayer dielectric layer 92 and the second barrier layer 91 and stop at the surface of the main metal material layer 80 in the trench 41 to form a through hole; Step S14: Form a conductive plug material layer 93, which fills the through hole and contacts the main metal material layer 80 in the trench 41.
[0051] In this embodiment, the second barrier layer 91 is made of nitrogen-doped silicon carbide (NDC); the second interlayer dielectric layer 92 is made of silicon dioxide.
[0052] In this application, after forming a diffusion suppression layer in the trench, a spin-coated material layer is applied to the trench and the surface of the diffusion suppression layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer. Then, the spin-coated material layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer and a portion of the spin-coated material layer in the trench are removed. Next, the diffusion suppression layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer and the diffusion suppression layer on the trench sidewall not covered by the spin-coated material layer are etched back to remove the diffusion suppression layer, so that the top of the diffusion suppression layer does not exceed the top of the trench. Then, an insulating layer is formed on the remaining diffusion suppression layer in the trench, the trench sidewall not covered by the diffusion suppression layer, and the surface of the first interlayer dielectric layer. This insulating layer can cover the top of the diffusion suppression layer, thereby avoiding the situation where the top of the diffusion suppression layer (metal lower electrode layer) on the trench sidewall is easily damaged by the grinding process due to the subsequent grinding removal of the main metal material layer on the first interlayer dielectric layer. This eliminates the weak point at the top of the trench sidewall of the trench MIM capacitor, improving the reliability and electrical performance of the device.
[0053] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a MIM capacitor, see reference. Figure 11 The MIM capacitor includes: A semiconductor structure 10, wherein a metal interconnect 11 is formed in the semiconductor structure 10, and a first barrier layer 30 and a first interlayer dielectric layer 40 covering the first barrier layer 30 are sequentially formed on the semiconductor structure 10. Trench 41, the trench 41 being located in the first interlayer dielectric layer 40 and the first barrier layer 30, wherein the trench 41 exposes a portion of the metal interconnect 11; A diffusion inhibition layer 50 covers the bottom wall and part of the sidewall of the trench 41, wherein the top end of the diffusion inhibition layer 50 on the sidewall of the trench 41 does not exceed the top end of the trench 41. An insulating layer 70 covers the diffusion suppression layer 50 in the trench 41, the sidewalls of the trench 41 not covered by the diffusion suppression layer 50, and the surface of the first interlayer dielectric layer 40. A main metal material layer 80 covers and fills the insulating layer 70 in the trench 41. The upper surface of the main metal material layer 80 in the trench 41 is flush with the upper surface of the insulating layer 70 on the first interlayer dielectric layer 40. At this time, the diffusion suppression layer 50, the insulating layer 70 and the main metal material layer 80 constitute a MIM capacitor. Specifically, the diffusion suppression layer 50 is the lower electrode of the trench MIM capacitor, the insulating layer 70 is the intermediate dielectric layer of the MIM capacitor, and the main metal material layer 80 is the upper electrode of the trench MIM capacitor.
[0054] In the MIM capacitor provided in this application, the top of the diffusion suppression layer does not exceed the top of the trench, so that the insulating layer can wrap the top of the diffusion suppression layer. This avoids the situation where the top of the diffusion suppression layer (lower metal plate layer) on the trench sidewall is accidentally damaged by the grinding process when the main metal material layer beyond the first interlayer dielectric layer is removed in the subsequent grinding process. This makes the weak point at the top of the trench sidewall of the trench MIM capacitor no longer exist, thus improving the reliability and electrical performance of the device.
[0055] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this application.
