Definitions
- a substrate is placed in a furnace or a chamber of a rapid thermal apparatus and heated to a high temperature, greater than 800°C, while an anneal gas such as 0 2 or N 2 is fed directly into the furnace or chamber, respectively, where the substrate is located.
- anneal gas such as 0 2 or N 2
- a problem with utilizing such high anneal temperatures is that dielectric films such as tantalum pentaoxide crystallize when exposed to high temperatures which can lead to high leakage currents. Additionally high anneal temperatures can cause other ions to diffuse into the film, especially at the interfaces of the devices, and cause poor electrical performance. Still further, many modern high density processes require a reduced thermal budget in order to prevent or minimize dopant diffusion or redistribution in a device. Still further some processes utilize materials with low melting points which preclude subsequent use of high temperature processing.
- Figure 1 is a flow chart which illustrates a process of forming a dielectric layer in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 2d is an illustration of a cross-sectional view showing the formation of an annealed dielectric film on the substrate of Figure 2b.
- Figure 3a is an illustration of an apparatus which may be utilized to anneal a dielectric layer in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 3b is an illustration of a chamber which may be used in the apparatus of Figure 3a.
- the present invention describes a novel method and apparatus for passivating and /or annealing films.
- highly reactive atomic species are used to nitridate, passivate, deposit and anneal films.
- the highly reactive atomic species are formed in a plasma created by exposing an anneal gas such as 0 2 and N.O, and N 2 to microwaves.
- the plasma creates electrically neutral highly energized atoms from the molecular anneal gas.
- the plasma used to generate the active atomic species is created in a cavity or chamber which is separate (remote) from the chamber in which the substrate to be annealed or passivated is located.
- the atomic species are in a highly energized state when they enter the anneal chamber, they readily react with films and substrates, and so do not require high substrate temperatures to initiate reaction. Because the present invention utilizes remotely generated highly reactive atomic species low substrate temperatures, less than or equal to 400°C, can be used nitridating, passivating, depositing, and annealing films and substrate. The low temperature processes of the present invention can substantially reduce the thermal budget necessary to manufacturer integrated circuits. Additionally because the active atomic species are remotely generated, the substrate to be annealed or passivated is not exposed to the harmful plasma used for generating the active atomic species.
- remotely generated active atomic species are used to anneal an active dielectric film, such as a gate dielectric or a capacitor dielectric.
- an active dielectric film such as a gate dielectric or a capacitor dielectric.
- a dielectric film is deposited over substrate.
- the dielectric film is then exposed to remotely generated active atomic species, such as reactive oxygen atoms or reactive nitrogen atoms.
- the highly energized atomic species readily react with the dielectric film to fill vacancies in the lattice which left unfilled can lead to high leakage currents and poor device performance.
- remotely generated active atomic species can be used in all phases of dielectric film formation including substrate passivation prior to dielectric layer deposition, annealing during dielectric deposition and annealing after dielectric deposition. In this way high quality, high performance capacitor and gate dielectrics as well as barrier layers can be fabricated.
- Figure 1 illustrates a flow chart which depictsasingle process which utilizes the different nitridation, passivation, deposition, and anneal processes of the present invention.
- Figures 2a-2e illustrate an embodiment of the present invention where the processes of the present invention are used to form a capacitor of a DRAM cell. It is to be appreciated that these specific details are only illustrative of an embodiment of the present invention and are not to be taken as limiting to the present invention.
- Chamber of 350 of apparatus 300 includes a wafer support 352 for supporting a wafer or substrate 351 face up in chamber 350.
- Wafer support 352 can include an aluminum chuck 354.
- Chamber 350 includes a quartz window 356 through which infrared radiation from a plurality (14) of quartz tungsten halogen lamp 358 is transmitted.
- the lamps mounted directly below the process chamber radiantly heat the chuck which in turn heats the wafer by conduction.
- a closed loop temperature control system senses the temperature of the substrate or wafer using a thermocouple mounted in the chuck. The temperature control system regulates the temperature of the wafer by varying the intensity of lamps 358.
- chamber 350 is also configured to receive deposition gases used to deposit a film by chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In this way, a dielectric film can be annealed in the same chamber as used to deposit the film, or the dielectric film can be annealed as it is deposited. Additionally, chamber 350 can be a thermal reactor such as the Applied Material's Poly Centura single wafer chemical vapor deposition reactor or the Applied Material's RTP Centura with the honeycomb source, each configured to receive active atomic species from remote plasma generator 301. In one embodiment of the present invention apparatus 300 is part of a cluster tool which includes among other chambers, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) chamber, a load lock, and a transfer chamber with a robot arm. Configuring the various chambers around a transfer chamber in the form of a cluster tool enables wafers or substrates to be transferred between the various chambers of the cluster tool without being exposed to an oxygen ambient.
- CVD chemical vapor deposition
- the first step in one embodiment of the present invention, as set forth in block 102 of flow chart 100, is to nitridate substrate 200 to form a thin, between 10-25A, silicon nitride barrier layer 205 on bottom electrode 206 as shown in Figure 2a.
- Nitridating bottom electrode 206 is desirable when bottom electrode 206 is a silicon electrode.
- Silicon nitride film 205 forms an oxidation prevention barrier layer for bottom electrode 206. In this way, oxygen can not penetrate grain boundaries of polysilicon electrode 206 and form oxides therein which can lead to a decrease in the effective dielectric constant of a capacitor dielectric and to an increase in electrode resistance.
- nitridating substrate 201 is desirable.
- a thin silicon nitride layer can be formed by nitridating substrate 200 by exposing substrate 200 to remotely generated reactive nitrogen atoms in anneal chamber 350 while substrate 200 is heated to a temperature between 700 - 900°C and chamber 350 maintain at a pressure between 0.5 torr - 2 torr.
- Reactive nitrogen atoms can be formed by flowing between 0.5 to 2 SLM of N 2 or ammonia (NH 3 ) into cavity 310 and applying a power between 1400-5000 watts to magnatron 302 to create plasma from the N 2 or NH 3 gas in cavity 310.
- the nitradation process forms silicon nitride only on those locations where silicon is available to react with the reactive nitrogen atoms, such as polysilicon electrode 206 and not on those areas where no silicon is available for reaction such as ILD 206.
- a suitable silicon nitride layer 205 can be formed by nitridating substrate 200 with remotely generated reactive nitrogen atoms for between 30-120 seconds.
- a thin silicon nitride layer 205 can be formed by other well known techniques such as by thermal nitridation in a LPCVD batch type furnace.
- Highly reactive electrically neutral nitrogen atoms 207 then flow through conduit 314 into chamber 350 where they passivate 209 substrate 200.
- Exposing substrate 200 to active nitrogen atoms 207 can be used to stuff the capacitor electrode 206 with nitrogen atoms and thereby prevent subsequent oxidation of the capacitor electrode.
- Silicon nitride layer 205 can be sufficiently passivated by exposing substrate 200 to remotely generated reactive nitrogen atoms for between 30-120 seconds.
- silicon nitride barrier layer 205 can be passivated by subsituting forming gas (3-10% H 2 and 97-90% N 2 ) for the N 2 anneal gas. The addition of hydrogen (H 2 ) helps to cure defects and to remove contaminates.
- dielectric layer 208 can be a silicon-oxide dielectric such as silicon dioxide and silicon oxynitride and composite dielectric stacks of silicon-oxide and silicon nitride film such as well known ONO and NO and nitrided oxides.
- silicon-oxide dielectric such as silicon dioxide and silicon oxynitride
- composite dielectric stacks of silicon-oxide and silicon nitride film such as well known ONO and NO and nitrided oxides.
- ONO and NO and nitrided oxides are well known and can be used in the fabrication of gate dielectric layers and capacitor dielectrics.
- a low temperature silicon dioxide film can be formed by chemical vapor deposition utilizing a silicon source, such as TEOS, and an oxygen source, such as 0 2 .
- the substrate can be placed into a thermal process chamber such as the chamber of an Applied Materials CVD single wafer reactor.
- substrate 201 can be placed or left in anneal chamber 350 configured to receive deposition gases.
- the substrate is then heated to a desired deposition temperature while the pressure within the chamber is pumped down (reduced) to a desired deposition pressure.
- Deposition gases are then fed into the chamber and a dielectric layer formed therefrom.
- a deposition gas mix comprising, a source of tantalum, such as but not limited to, TAETO [Ta (OC2Hs)5] and TAT-DMAE [Ta (OC2H5)4 (OCHCH2 N(CH3)2], and source of oxygen such as 0 2 or N 2 0 can be fed into a deposition chamber while the substrate is heated to a deposition temperature of between 300-500°C and the chamber maintained at a deposition pressure of between 0.5 -10 Torr.
- a source of tantalum such as but not limited to, TAETO [Ta (OC2Hs)5] and TAT-DMAE [Ta (OC2H5)4 (OCHCH2 N(CH3)2]
- source of oxygen such as 0 2 or N 2 0
- TAETO or TAT-DMAE is fed into the chamber at a rate of between 10 - 50 milligrams per minute while 0 2 or N 2 0 is fed into the chamber at a rate of 0.3 - 1.0 SLM.
- TAETO and TAT-DMAE can be provided by direct liquid injection or vaporized with a bubbler prior to entering the deposition chamber.
- a carrier gas, such as N 2 , H 2 and He, at a rate of between 0.5-2.0 SLM can be used to transport the vaporized TAETO or TAT-DMAE liquid into the deposition chamber.
- Deposition is continued until a dielectric film 508 of a desired thickness is formed.
- a tantalum pentaoxide (Ta 2 O s ) dielectric film having a thickness between 50-200 A provides a suitable capacitor dielectric.
- N 2 0 nitrous oxide
- oxygen gas 0 2 oxygen gas
- dielectric layer 208 is a tantalum pentaoxide (Ta 2 O s ) film doped with titanium (Ti).
- a tantalum pentaoxide film doped with titanium can be formed by thermal chemical vapor deposition by providing a source of titanium, such as but not limited to TTPT (C 12 H 26 0 4 Ti), into the process chamber while forming a tantalum pentaoxide film as described above.
- TIPT diluted by approximately 50 % with a suitable solvent such as isopropyl alcohol (IPA) can be fed into the process chamber by direct liquid injection or through the use of a bubbler and carrier gas such as N 2 .
- IPA isopropyl alcohol
- a TIPT diluted flow rate of between 5-20 mg/minute can be used to produce a tantalum pentaoxide film having a titanium doping density of between 5-20 atomic percent and a dielectric constant between 20-40.
- the precise Ti doping density can be controlled by varying the tantalum source flow rate relative to the titanium source flow rate. It is to be appreciated that a tantalum pentaoxide film doped with titanium atoms exhibits a higher dielectric constant than an undoped tantalum pentaoxide film.
- dielectric layer 208 is a composite dielectric layer comprising a stack of different dielectric materials such as a Ta 2 0 5 /Ti0 2 /Ta 2 0 5 stack.
- a Ta 2 0 5 /Ti0 2 /Ta 2 0 5 composite film can be formed by first depositing a tantalum pentaoxide film as described above. After depositing a tantalum pentaoxide film having a thickness between 20-50 A the flow of the tantalum source is stopped and replaced with a flow of a source of titanium, such as TIPT, at a diluted flow rate of between 5- 20mg/min.
- the titanium source is replaced with the tantalum source and the deposition continued to form a second tantalum pentaoxide film having a thickness of between 20-50 A.
- a higher dielectric constant titanium oxide (TiO z ) film between two tantalum pentaoxide (Ta 2 O s ) films, the dielectric constant of a composite stack is increased over that of a homogeneous layer of tantalum pentaoxide (Ta 2 O s ).
- dielectric film 208 is annealed with remotely generated active atomic species 211 as shown in Figure 2d, to form an annealed dielectric layer 210.
- Dielectric film 208 can be annealed by placing substrate 200 into anneal chamber 350 coupled to remote plasma generator 301. Substrate 200 is then heated to an anneal temperature and exposed to active atomic species 211 generated by disassociating an anneal gas in applicator chamber 310. By generating the active atomic species in a chamber remote from the anneal chamber (the chamber in which the substrate is situated) a low temperature anneal can be accomplished without exposing the substrate to the harmful plasma used to form the active atomic species.
- dielectric film 208 is a transition metal dielectric and is annealed with reactive oxygen atoms formed by remotely disassociating 0 2 gas.
- Dielectric layer 208 can be annealed in chamber 350 with a reactive oxygen atoms created by providing an anneal gas comprising two SLM of 0 2 and one SLM of N2 into chamber 310, and applying a power between 500 - 1500 watts to magnatron 302 to generate microwaves which causes a plasma to ignite from the anneal gas.
- reactive oxygen atoms can be formed by flowing an anneal gas comprising two SLM of 0 2 and three SLM of argon (Ar) into cavity 310.
- Dielectric layer 208 can be sufficiently annealed by exposing substrate 200 to reactive oxygen atoms for between 30-120 seconds.
- An inert gas such as N 2 or argon (Ar) is preferably included in the anneal gas stream in order to help prevent recombination of the active atomic species.
- the active atomic species e.g. reactive oxygen atoms
- the active atomic species travel from the applicator cavity 310 to the anneal chamber 350, they collide with one another and recombine to form 0 2 molecules.
- the inert gas does not disassociate and so provides atoms which the active atomic species can collide into without recombining.
- Figure 4 illustrates how exposing a tantalum pentaoxide dielectric film to remotely generated reactive oxygen atoms improves the quality and electrical performance of the as deposited film.
- Graph 402 shows how the leakage current of a capacitor having a lOOA unannealed tantalum pentaoxide dielectric film varies for different top electrode voltages.
- Graph 404 shows how the leakage current of a capacitor having a lOOA tantalum pentaoxide dielectric film annealed with remotely generated reactive oxygen atoms varies for different top electrode voltages.
- a capacitor utilizing an unannealed tantalum pentaoxide dielectric experiences high leakage current of about lx 10 -1 (amps/cm 2 ) when ⁇ 1.5 volts is applied to the top electrode and a high leakage current of 1x10 " * (amps/cm 2 ) when zero volts is applied to the top electrode.
- the leakage current has a relatively low leakage current of
- the deposition step 106 and the anneal step 108 occur simultaneously so that the dielectric film is annealed as it is deposited.
- a dielectric film can be deposited and annealed simultaneously using a single deposition/ anneal chamber coupled to receive a remote plasma from a remote plasma generator source and coupled to receive a deposition gas mix.
- a deposition gas mix comprising a metal source such as a TAT-DMAE or TIPT, or a silicon source, such as TEOS, and a source of oxygen such as 0 2 or N 2 0 can be fed into a common anneal /deposition chamber while the substrate is heated to a desired deposition temperature and the chamber maintained at a desired deposition pressure.
- an anneal gas such as 0 2
- an anneal gas can be supplied into applicator cavity chamber 310 of the remote plasma generator 300 at a rate of between 0.5 - 2 SLM. Reactive oxygen atoms can then flow from chamber 310 into the anneal /deposition chamber.
- the reactive oxygen atoms then react with the metal or silicon provided from the deposition gas mix to form a metal- oxide or silicon-oxide compound respectively.
- the only source of oxygen atoms into the deposition /anneal chamber is reactive oxygen atoms from applicator 310.
- top capacitor electrode 212 can be formed over annealed dielectric layer 210.
- Any well known technology can be used to form top electrode 212 including blanket depositing a polysilicon film or metal film, such as TiN, over annealed dielectric film 210 and then using well known photolithography and etching techniques to pattern the electrode film and dielectric layer.
- remotely generated active atomic species can be used to fabricate a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistor.
- the first step is to nitridate a monocrystalline silicon substrate 502 with remotely generated reactive nitrogen atoms 503 as describe above.
- Nitridating substrate 502 with remotely generated reactive nitrogen atom forms a thin silicon nitride film 501 on substrate 502 which improves the interface between the silicon substrate 502 and the subsequently deposited gate dielectric layer.
- a gate dielectric layer 504 is formed over nitridated substrate 502.
- Gate dielectric layer 504 can be a thermally grown silicon dioxide film, a CVD deposited silicon dioxide film, or a transition metal film such as tantalum pentaoxide or titanium oxide or combinations thereof. Gate dielectric 504 will typically have a thickness between 20 to lOOA.
- the dielectric film 504 is annealed with remotely generated active atomic species 505, such as reactive oxygen atoms, to form an annealed dielectric film 506 as described above. Annealing of the gate dielectric film fills vacancies in the lattice and generally improves the quality of the film. The annealing step can occur as a separate step after the deposition of the gate dielectric or can occur simultaneous with the deposition of the gate dielectric.
- a gate electrode material such as polysilicon or a metal or a combination thereof, can be blanket deposited over annealed gate dielectric 506 and then patterned into a gate electrode 508, as shown in Figure 5d, with well known photolithography and etching techniques.
- a pair of source/drain regions 510 can then be formed on opposite sides of the gate electrode 508 with well known ion implantation or solid source diffusion techniques, in order to complete fabrication of the MOS device.
- a novel method and apparatus for forming and /or annealing a dielectric film with a remotely generated active atomic species has been described. Utilizing a, remotely generated active atomic species to anneal and /or deposit a film enables a high quality, high dielectric constant film to be formed at low temperatures.
