반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법Via hole formation method of semiconductor device

본 발명은 반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법에 관한 것으로, 특히 반도체 소자의 금속 배선 콘택 공정시 와인 글라스(wine glass) 모양의 비아홀 형성 공정을 개선하여 감광막 패턴의 들뜸 현상을 방지하므로써, 후속 건식 식각시 노출된 부위의 어택(attack) 방지 및 공정의 안정화로 반도체 소자의 전기적 특성 및 수율을 향상시킬 수 있는 반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a method of forming a via hole of a semiconductor device, and in particular, to improve the formation of a wine glass via hole during a metal wiring contact process of a semiconductor device, thereby preventing the photosensitive film pattern from being lifted, thereby exposing the substrate to subsequent dry etching. The present invention relates to a method of forming a via hole of a semiconductor device capable of improving the electrical properties and yield of the semiconductor device by preventing attack of the damaged portions and stabilizing the process.

일반적으로, 반도체 소자의 제조 공정중 소자와 소자간 또는 배선과 배선간을 전기적으로 연결시키기 위해 금속 배선 콘택 공정을 실시한다. 반도체 소자가 고집적화 되어감에 비아홀에서의 금속 스텝 커버리지(metal step coverage)를 향상시키기 위해, 비아홀을 와인 글라스 모양으로 형성한다.In general, a metal wiring contact process is performed in order to electrically connect an element and an element or a wiring and an interconnection in a semiconductor device manufacturing process. In order to improve metal step coverage in the via holes as the semiconductor devices are highly integrated, the via holes are formed in a wine glass shape.

도 1a 내지 도 1c는 종래 반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법을 설명하기 위한 소자의 단면도이다.1A to 1C are cross-sectional views of devices for describing a method of forming via holes in a conventional semiconductor device.

도 1a를 참조하면, 반도체 소자를 형성하기 위한 여러 요소가 형성된 구조의 기판(11)상에 하부 금속 배선(12)이 형성되고, 하부 금속 배선(12)상에 층간 절연막(14)이 형성된다. 층간 절연막(14)상에 감광막 패턴(15)이 형성된다. 하부 금속 배선(12)의 상부에는 반사방지막(13)이 형성된다.Referring to FIG. 1A, a lower metal interconnection 12 is formed on a substrate 11 having a structure in which various elements for forming a semiconductor device are formed, and an interlayer insulating layer 14 is formed on the lower metal interconnection 12. . The photosensitive film pattern 15 is formed on the interlayer insulating film 14. An antireflection film 13 is formed on the lower metal wire 12.

도 1b를 참조하면, 감광막 패턴(15)을 식각 마스크로 한 습식 식각 공정으로 층간 절연막(14)을 일정 깊이 식각 하여 접시 모양의 홈(16)을 형성한다. 습식 식각 공정은 묽은 불산 용액(buffered oxide etchant; BOE)을 이용한다.Referring to FIG. 1B, a dish-shaped groove 16 is formed by etching the interlayer insulating layer 14 to a predetermined depth by a wet etching process using the photoresist pattern 15 as an etching mask. The wet etch process uses a dilute hydrofluoric acid solution (buffered oxide etchant (BOE).

도 1c를 참조하면, 감광막 패턴(15)을 다시 식각 마스크로 한 건식 식각 공정으로 하부 금속 배선(12)이 노출될 때까지 층간 절연막(14)을 식각 하여 와인 글라스 모양의 비아홀(17)을 형성한다.Referring to FIG. 1C, a wine glass via hole 17 is formed by etching the interlayer insulating layer 14 until the lower metal wiring 12 is exposed by a dry etching process using the photoresist pattern 15 as an etching mask. do.

상기한 종래 방법은 반도체 소자의 고집적화로 인해 비아홀(17)과 이에 이웃하여 형성되는 다른 비아홀 사이의 간격이 좁아질 경우, 습식 식각시 측면을 많이 치고 들어가 감광막 패턴(15)의 들뜸(lifting) 현상이 발생한다. 또한 감광막 패턴(15)을 DUV 감광물질로 형성할 경우 베이킹(baking) 공정에서 깨어지는 현상이 발생된다. 이와 같이 들뜸 현상 및 깨어짐 현상으로 인하여 0.15㎛ 이하의 반도체 소자인 경우에는 큰 문제점으로 대두되며, 또한 이러한 현상은 반도체 소자의 전기적 특성 및 수율을 저하시키는 요인으로 작용하게 된다.According to the conventional method, when the gap between the via hole 17 and another via hole formed adjacent thereto is narrowed due to the high integration of the semiconductor device, the phenomenon of lifting the photoresist pattern 15 by hitting the side during wet etching is increased. This happens. In addition, when the photosensitive film pattern 15 is formed of a DUV photosensitive material, a phenomenon of breaking occurs in a baking process. As a result, the semiconductor device having a size of 0.15 μm or less due to the lifting phenomenon and the breaking phenomenon becomes a big problem, and this phenomenon also acts as a factor that lowers the electrical characteristics and yield of the semiconductor device.

따라서, 본 발명은 반도체 소자의 금속 배선 콘택 공정시 와인 글라스(wine glass) 모양의 비아홀 형성 공정을 개선하여 감광막 패턴의 들뜸 현상을 방지하므로써, 후속 건식 식각시 노출된 부위의 어택(attack) 방지 및 공정의 안정화로 반도체 소자의 전기적 특성 및 수율을 향상시킬 수 있는 반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention improves the process of forming a wine glass via hole during the metal wiring contact process of the semiconductor device, thereby preventing the photosensitive film pattern from being lifted, thereby preventing attack of the exposed part during subsequent dry etching. It is an object of the present invention to provide a method for forming a via hole of a semiconductor device capable of improving electrical characteristics and yield of a semiconductor device by stabilizing a process.

이러한 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명의 반도체 소자의 비아홀 형성 방법은 반도체 소자를 형성하기 위한 여러 요소가 형성된 구조의 기판 상에 하부 금속 배선을 형성하는 단계; 상기 하부 금속 배선 상에 층간 절연막이 형성하고, 상기 층간 절연막 상에 감광막 패턴을 형성하는 단계; 상기 감광막 패턴을 식각 마스크로 한 1차 건식 식각 공정으로 하부 금속 배선이 노출될 때까지 층간 절연막을 식각 하여 수직 비아홀을 형성하는 단계; 및 상기 감광막 패턴을 제거한 후, 2차 건식 식각 공정으로 상기 수직 비아홀이 형성된 층간 절연막을 식각 하여 경사진 비아홀을 형성하는 단계를 포함하여 이루어지는 것을 특징으로 한다.A method of forming a via hole of a semiconductor device of the present invention for achieving the above object comprises the steps of forming a lower metal wiring on a substrate having a structure in which a number of elements for forming a semiconductor device; Forming an interlayer insulating film on the lower metal interconnection and forming a photoresist pattern on the interlayer insulating film; Forming a vertical via hole by etching the interlayer insulating layer through a first dry etching process using the photoresist pattern as an etching mask until the lower metal wiring is exposed; And removing the photoresist pattern, and etching the interlayer insulating layer on which the vertical via holes are formed by a second dry etching process to form inclined via holes.

도 2a를 참조하면, 반도체 소자를 형성하기 위한 여러 요소가 형성된 구조의 기판(21)상에 하부 금속 배선(22)이 형성되고, 하부 금속 배선(22)상에 층간 절연막(24)이 형성된다. 층간 절연막(24)상에 감광막 패턴(25)이 형성된다. 하부 금속 배선(22)의 상부에는 반사방지막(23)이 형성된다.Referring to FIG. 2A, a lower metal interconnection 22 is formed on a substrate 21 having various elements for forming a semiconductor device, and an interlayer insulating layer 24 is formed on the lower metal interconnection 22. . The photosensitive film pattern 25 is formed on the interlayer insulating film 24. An antireflection film 23 is formed on the lower metal wire 22.

상기에서, 층간 절연막(24)은 보로포스포 실리케이트 글라스(BPSG), 스핀 온 글라스(SOG) 또는 포스포러스 실리케이트 글라스(PSG)가 사용된다.In the above, the interlayer insulating film 24 is made of borophospho silicate glass (BPSG), spin on glass (SOG) or phosphorus silicate glass (PSG).

도 2b를 참조하면, 감광막 패턴(25)을 식각 마스크로 한 1차 건식 식각 공정으로 하부 금속 배선(22)이 노출될 때까지 층간 절연막(24) 및 반사방지막(23)을 식각 하여 수직 비아홀(26)을 형성한다.Referring to FIG. 2B, the interlayer insulating film 24 and the anti-reflection film 23 are etched by the first dry etching process using the photoresist pattern 25 as an etching mask until the lower metal wiring 22 is exposed. 26).

상기에서, 1차 건식 식각 공정은 CF4, C2F6, C3F8, C4F8, CHF3등과 같은 식각 기체에 CO, O2, Ar, He 등의 기체를 첨가하여 상기한 바와 같이 하부 금속 배선(22)이 노출될 때까지 실시하거나, 아니면 층간 절연막(24)만 식각 하여 반사방지막(23)을 식각하지 않을 수도 있다. 1차 건식 식각 공정에서 첨가 기체인 CO, O2등은 비아 콘택의 경사와 하부 금속 배선(22)상의 반사방지막(23)의 식각을 조절하는 역할을 하며, 첨가 기체인 Ar, He 등과 같은 불활성 기체는 비아 콘택 식각 공정에서 발생할 수 있는 금속성 폴리머(metallic polymer)의 양을 감소시키는 역할을 한다.In the above, the first dry etching process is described by adding a gas such as CO, O 2 , Ar, He, etc. to the etching gas such as CF 4 , C 2 F 6 , C 3 F 8 , C 4 F 8 , CHF 3 , etc. As described above, the anti-reflection film 23 may not be etched until the lower metal wires 22 are exposed, or only the interlayer insulating film 24 is etched. In the first dry etching process, CO and O 2 , which are additive gases, control the inclination of the via contact and the etching of the anti-reflection film 23 on the lower metal wiring 22, and inert such as Ar and He, which are additive gases. The gas serves to reduce the amount of metallic polymer that can occur in the via contact etching process.

도 2c를 참조하면, 감광막 패턴(25)을 제거한 후, 식각 마스크 없이 2차 건식 식각 공정으로 수직 비아홀(26)이 형성된 층간 절연막(24)을 일정 시간 식각 하여 경사진 비아홀(27)을 형성한다. 경사진 비아홀(27)을 형성한 후에 잔존하는 금속성 폴리머를 CF4/O2/Ar 플라즈마를 이용하여 제거한다.Referring to FIG. 2C, after removing the photoresist pattern 25, an inclined via hole 27 is formed by etching the interlayer insulating layer 24 having the vertical via hole 26 formed therein by a secondary dry etching process without an etching mask. . After forming the inclined via hole 27, the remaining metallic polymer is removed using a CF 4 / O 2 / Ar plasma.

상기에서, 감광막 패턴(25)은 O2플라즈마에 Ar, He 기체를 첨가하여 제거한다. 2차 건식 식각 공정은 1차 건식 식각 공정과 마찬가지로 CF4, C2F6, C3F8, C4F8, CHF3등과 같은 식각 기체에 CO, O2, Ar, He 등의 기체를 첨가하여 실시한다. 2차 건식 식각 공정에서 첨가 기체인 CO, O2등은 비아 콘택의 경사와 하부 금속 배선(22)상의 반사방지막(23)의 식각을 조절하는 역할을 하며, 첨가 기체인 Ar, He 등과 같은 불활성 기체는 비아 콘택 식각 공정에서 발생할 수 있는 금속성 폴리머(metallic polymer)의 양을 감소시키는 역할을 한다. 1차 건식 식각 공정시 반사방지막(23)을 식각하지 않았을 경우에는 콘택 저항의 증가를 방지하기 위해 2차 건식 식각 공정시에 반드시 하부 금속 배선(22)이 노출되도록 반사방지막(23)을 제거하여야 한다.In the above, the photoresist layer pattern 25 is removed by adding Ar and He gases to the O 2 plasma. Like the first dry etching process, the second dry etching process uses a gas such as CO, O 2 , Ar, or He in an etching gas such as CF 4 , C 2 F 6 , C 3 F 8 , C 4 F 8 , or CHF 3 . It is carried out by addition. In the second dry etching process, CO and O 2 , which are additive gases, control the inclination of the via contact and the etching of the anti-reflection film 23 on the lower metal wiring 22, and inert such as Ar and He, which are additive gases. The gas serves to reduce the amount of metallic polymer that can occur in the via contact etching process.
