Abstract
The fixed charge in a borophosphosilicate glass insulating film deposited on a semiconductor device is reduced by reacting an organic precursor such as TEOS with O3. When done at temperatures higher than approximately 480 degrees C., the carbon level in the resulting film appears to be reduced, resulting in a higher threshold voltage for field transistor devices.

Field of the Invention
[00003] The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for manufacturing semiconductor devices, and in particular to reducing the fixed charge in insulative layers on such devices.
Background of the Invention
[00004] Field effect transistors (FETs) are formed on silicon, or similar semiconductor substrates. A field effect transistor is usually formed with active areas such as two heavily doped, spaced apart regions of silicon, which are called a source and a drain. A gate structure is formed between the source and the drain, and operates to control the amount of electrical current which flows between them. When appropriate voltage is applied to the gate, an electrically conductive channel is formed under the gate, allowing current flow between the source and the drain. Active areas of adjacent transistors may be isolated from each other by the formation of a field oxide layer which acts as an insulator.
[00005] Part of the process of forming transistors involves the application of various layers of material. One such layer is utilized as an insulating layer between the gate and metal interconnects. Silane based layers have been used in the past, but do not fill tight spaces very well. Tetraethyloxysilicate (TEOS) based borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) film layers using TEOS is a silicon containing source gas which has also been used. Doping TEOS with boron and phosphorus through the addition of triethylborane (TEB) and triethylphosphate (TEPO) respectively, increases the film's ability to reflow and fill in tight spaces. Such BPSG layers, however, have been plagued with unacceptable fixed electrical charge, thus being unsuitable for use in semiconductor devices. This is characteristic of both plasma and non-plasma TEOS based BPSG deposition. However, due to the material's superior abilities to reflow at low temperatures and getter mobile species, it is highly desirable to adapt this material for use in semiconductor devices, particularly those employing certain silicide technologies which require lower temperatures to avoid agglomeration, such as those using titanium silicide.
[00006] Such layers are used as insulators between conductive layers. Excess fixed charge has an undesirable effect on adjacent layers. Excessive fixed charge for example can cause the silicon surface to invert under the field oxide, resulting in an undesirable channel for current to flow between two active areas that are isolated by the field oxide. This channel has a charge opposite to that of the substrate, which is also depleted of charge carriers in the region surrounding the inversion region. Thus, the excessive fixed charge creates or quickens the formation of the channel through which current flows, at undesired times. Excessive fixed charge also causes threshold voltage degradation in field transistors, causing premature and excessive leakage, in both n-type and p-type channel devices. The threshold voltage is the minimum voltage that must be applied for a current to flow in the channel between active regions. In semiconductor field transistor devices, it is paramount that the threshold voltage be maintained above a certain level to reduce leakage current between active regions.
[00007] There is a need to bring this fixed charge down to levels that do not induce a channel to form between active regions of field transistors formed in semiconductor substrates. There is also a need to provide an insulative layer having good reflow capabilities at low temperatures and which exhibit a low fixed charge.
Summary of the Invention
[00008] An insulative film layer such as borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) is deposited on a semiconductor device by reacting Tetraethyloxysilicate (TEOS) with ozone (O3). O3 is formed in a corona discharge tube by flowing O2 such that the O3 concentration in O2 is between approximately 2-20% by weight. Triethylphosphate (TEPO) and triethylborane (TEB) are organometallics used to dope the film with phosphorous and boron respectively. The BPSG is deposited at pressures of approximately 10 Torr to 760 Torr or atmospheric pressure. The temperature of the BPSG layer is higher than approximately 480 degrees C. This provides a low fixed charge film of BPSG which reflows well at low temperatures. The low fixed charge raises the threshold voltage which in turn helps prevent inducement of undesired channels between unassociated active areas in devices formed in the substrate.

Description of the Embodiments
[00012] In the following detailed description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and in which is shown by way of illustration specific embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. These embodiments are described in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention, and it is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and that structural, logical and electrical changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
[00013] Numbering in the Figures is usually done with the hundreds and thousands digits corresponding to the figure number, with the exception that the same components may appear in multiple figures. Signals and connections may be referred to by the same number or label, and the actual meaning should be clear from the context of use.
[00014] In FIG. 1 , a semiconductor device comprising a silicon substrate or other suitable semiconductor material indicated generally at 110 has many active areas such as active areas 112 and 114 of adjacent transistors formed therein separated by a field oxide indicated at 116. The field oxide 116 provides isolation between adjacent unassociated active areas of transistors. An insulative glass layer 130 such as an oxide film or borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) is deposited over the active areas to a depth of approximately 25,000 Angstroms using an organic precursor. Metal conductors represented at 140 are then formed on top of the oxide layer 130. In a further embodiment, a second oxide layer is then formed as in inter metal dielectric, and further conductors and oxide layers are formed on top of that to form multiple levels of conductors.
[00015] In one embodiment, the glass 130 is formed to a depth of between 2K angstroms and 30K angstroms in a standard chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor such as the Applied Materials P5000 single wafer cold well CVD reactor by reacting tetraethyloxysilicate (TEOS) with ozone (O3). O3 is formed in a corona discharge tube by flowing O2 at a rate of approximately 2000-8000 cubic centimeters per minute such that the O3 concentration in O2 is approximately 13% by weight. In further embodiments, the concentration ranges from approximate 2-20% by weight. TEOS is then pumped by liquid injectors into a flash evaporator at the rate of approximately 200-800 milligrams per minute and combined with a helium carrier gas which is provided at a rate of between approximately 2000-10,000 cubic centimeters per minute. This mixture is then combined with the oxygen mixture and introduced into the reactor through a common shower head to form the oxide layer on the substrate which is preferably heated to a temperature of at least approximately 480 degrees Celsius.
[00016] Triethylphosphate (TEPO) and Triethylborane (TEB) are organometallics used to dope the film with phosphorous and boron respectively. They are also controllably injected into the flash evaporator at rates of between 20-90 milligrams per minute and 40-300 milligrams per minute respectively to form varying percentages of doping. To form a silicon dioxide layer, neither TEPO nor TEB are added. Both are added to form a BPSG insulative oxide layer. TEPO is used alone to provide a phosphorous doped silicon dioxide layer and TEB is used alone to provide a boron doped silicon dioxide layer. The percentage of boron is varied between approximately 0.5-6%, and the percentage of phosphorous is varied between approximately 0.5-8%. Boron doping tends to lower the temperature required for reflow of the oxide layer. Phosphorous is used as a mobile ion getterer, and in combination with boron, assists in lowering the reflow temperature. Boron and phosphorous doping may also be obtained through the use of other well known organometallics.
[00017] The glass layer 130 is deposited at a pressure of approximately 200 Torr. In further embodiments, the pressure varies between approximately 10 Torr to 760 Torr or atmospheric pressure. The temperature at which the deposition of the glass layer takes place in one embodiment is approximately 510 degrees C. or higher. The heating of the substrate is provided in a known manner such as by lamp, resistive coils in the substrate chuck or infrared sources.
[00018] Following deposition of the glass layer, the substrate 110 is then transferred to a furnace for a high temperature reflow in the case of BPSG or densifying in the case of oxide. In one embodiment, a batch furnace reflow is performed at approximately 907 degrees C. for 30 minutes in a nitrogen (N2) environment at approximately atmospheric pressure. Alternatively, the wafer is reflowed by a rapid thermal process (RTP) reflow at approximately 1000 degrees C. for 20 seconds, again in an N2 environment at approximately atmospheric pressure. The exact times and temperatures for these reflows will vary significantly depending on the percentage concentrations of boron and phosphorous in the glass layer 130.
[00019] The above steps result in the introduction of carbon into the glass layer from the use of the organometallic dopants. The carbon level at the interface between the oxide film and active area silicon interface appears to be directly correlated to the amount of fixed charge in the film. By increasing the film deposition temperature higher than approximately 480 degrees C., the carbon level in the film appears to be scavenged by the O3, leading to a lower fixed charge.
[00020] FIG. 2 is a graph of the carbon level concentrations in atoms per cubic centimeter at various depths in Angstroms of each oxide layer deposited using the present invention. Oxide layers were formed at various identified oxide deposition temperatures. The oxide layers were also reflowed for 30 minutes at 907 degrees C. The measurements were taken at various depths using standard secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS).
[00021] The reflow of the layer causes the carbon to migrate toward the interface between the silicon and the oxide layer at about 26,000 Angstrom. The data presented in the graph of actual typical experimental results, shows the carbon has migrated to depths near the interface. The total concentration of carbon is seen to be significantly reduced when the film is deposited in the presence of O3 at temperatures of approximately 480 degrees C. and above. When deposited at 510 degrees C., the concentration of carbon is fewer than about 1018 to 1017 atoms per cubic centimeter at its highest concentration and the fixed charge density is less than approximately 5×1010 per square centimeter.
[00022] By reducing the carbon level in the film, a low fixed charge film of oxide is provided. In essence, a higher metal field threshold voltage is obtained for n-channel devices as indicated in FIG. 3. FIG. 3 is a graph of threshold voltage for 24,000 angstrom thick BPSG fields applied in an O3 environment in a deposition chamber at the same temperatures as in FIG. 2. In addition, both a batch furnace reflow for 30 minutes at 907 degrees C. and a rapid thermal process (RTP) reflow for 20 seconds at 1000 degree C. were performed in N2 prior to the threshold voltages being measured. As indicated, the threshold voltage increased dramatically when the film was applied in the presence of O3 at temperatures above approximately 510 degrees C. Improvement was also noted at temperatures above approximately 480 degrees C. It should be noted that the first three layers in FIG. 3 were formed with 3% boron (B2O3) and 6% phosphorous (P2O5). At 530 degrees C., the percentages of boron and phosphorous were both 5%. An inorganic control group silane (SiH4) is also shown.
[00023] It is to be understood that the above description is intended to be illustrative, and not restrictive. Many other embodiments will be apparent to those of skill in the art upon reviewing the above description. The scope of the invention should, therefore, be determined with reference to the appended claims, along with the full scope of equivalents to which such claims are entitled.
