Description

The formation method of semiconductor structure
Technical field

Background technology
Along with the making of integrated circuit develops to very lagre scale integrated circuit (VLSIC) (ULSI), the current densities of its inside is increasing, contained number of elements constantly increases, and makes the surface of wafer that enough area cannot be provided to make required interconnection line (Interconnect).In order to co-operating member reduces rear increased interconnection line demand, the design of the two-layer above multiple layer metal interconnection line utilizing through hole to realize, becomes the method that very large scale integration technology must adopt.
Traditional metal interconnectedly to be realized by aluminium, but constantly reducing along with device feature size in integrated circuit (IC) chip, the current density in metal connecting line constantly increases, and the response time constantly shortens, and conventional aluminum interconnection line reaches technological limits.After process is less than 130nm, traditional aluminum interconnecting technology gradually replace by copper interconnecting line technology.With aluminum metallic matrix ratio, the resistivity of copper metal is lower, electromigration lifetime is longer, and RC that metal interconnecting wires can reduce interconnection line postpones, improves the integrity problem that electromigration etc. causes to utilize process for copper to make.But adopt process for copper to make interconnection line and also there is two problems: one is that the diffusion velocity of copper is very fast, two is etching difficulties of copper, therefore, its manufacturing process that is suitable for completely different from aluminium technique, mosaic texture usually can be adopted to realize in the mode of filling.
But, along with the continuous reduction of semiconductor technology node, critical size (the CD of the groove in semiconductor device and through hole, critical dimension) also corresponding reduction, easily produce cavity when filling copper metal in groove and through hole, have a strong impact on the electric property of formed semiconductor device.In addition, existing technique groove and through hole are carried out copper metal filled before usually can at groove and through-hole side wall deposited barrier layer and inculating crystal layer, to improve the adhesiveness of copper metal and groove or through-hole side wall and to prevent copper atom from being spread to dielectric layer by sidewall.But when groove and through-hole side wall deposition of adhesion and inculating crystal layer, the adhesion layer deposited and inculating crystal layer easily form projection at groove and via openings place, further reduce the width of formed groove and via openings, have a strong impact on follow-up copper metal filling processes, cause producing cavity in formed copper metal interconnecting wires.
With reference to figure 1, form by existing technique the cross-sectional view of copper semiconductor structure, the technique forming copper semiconductor structure is as follows: first, copper blocking layer 103 and low-k interlayer dielectric layer 105 on the substrate 101; Then, etching low dielectric constant interlayer dielectric layer 105, forms through hole; Again then, barrier layer 107 is formed in via bottoms and sidewall, to improve the adhesiveness between the copper metal of follow-up filling and the low-k interlayer dielectric layer 105 of through-hole side wall, and preventing copper atom from spreading in low-k interlayer dielectric layer 105, this barrier layer 107 is generally Ta, TaN or Ta and TaN composition; Then, barrier layer 107 forms copper seed layer 109, then in through hole, fill copper metal by physical gas-phase deposition, form layers of copper 111.The formation quality of this layers of copper is very large to the performance impact of circuit, directly can have influence on multiple performance parameters of circuit.
In the forming process of above-mentioned layers of copper 111, if the filling quality of copper metal is not good, the cavity 113 shown in Fig. 1 is formed in layers of copper 111 inside, formed semiconductor structure electromigration (EM will be caused, Electronic Migration) lost efficacy, the fabrication having a strong impact on the semiconductor device comprising formed semiconductor structure can test the rate of finished products of (WAT, wafer acceptance test) and wafer sort (CP, circuitprobing).
