Description

低介电常数隐晶层及纳米结构
技术领域
本发明涉及一种低介电常数隐晶,其可与下一代集成电路和器件结合使用。这些隐晶通过化学汽相处理(CVP)方法[S.Kalem和O.Yavuz,OPTICS EXPRESS 6,7(2000)]来生长,其包括将硅表面暴露于酸性混合物蒸汽。隐晶表示一种如此精细地成粒状以致在光学显微镜下不能分辨出不同的颗粒的材料。具有这种微小晶体的以这种方式设置的物质的状态称作隐晶。这种类型的晶体能显示出特别的介电特性,其可用于多种领域中。
背景技术
关于上述光学特性介电氟化X铵隐晶在文献中没有报道。
当氟化铵NH4F与晶片表面上的Si反应时显示在硅晶片上形成了氟化硅铵(ASiF)材料[M.Niwano,K.Kurita,Y.Takeda和N.Miyamoto,Applied Physics Letters 62,1003(1993)]。
如在另一文献中说明的,在等离子体辅助半导体清洗和沉积处理期间在真空室的壁上和真空排气线中发现了氟化硅铵[S.Munley,I.McNaught,D.Mrotek,和C.Y.Lin,Semiconductor International,10/1,(2001)]。
也已经表明,使用HF/HNO3能从多孔硅获得氟化硅铵的发光粉末[M.Saadoun,B.Bessais,N.Mliki,M.Ferid,H/Ezzaouia和R.Bennaceur,Applied Surface Science 210,240(2003)]。
相似地,[H.Ogawa,T.Arai,M.Yanagisawa,T.Ichiki和Y.Horiike,Jpn.J.Applied Physics 41,5349(2002)]已经示出,当剩余的天然(natural)氧化物与晶片表面上的热铵(NH3)和氟化氮(NF3)反应时,氟化硅铵形成于硅晶片上。
而且,报道了当HF和NH3气体于真空下在SiO2上反应时形成了氟化硅铵[P.D.Agnello,IBM J.of Research and Development 46,Number 2/3,2002)]。
在上述文献中没有应用特性隐晶结构。而且,在这些文献中,获得的是一种无意的、无规则的、杂乱且被产物污染的氟化硅铵。
文献中没有关于氟化X铵的微米和纳米线的报道。
关于氟化X铵隐晶的介电常数能在很大范围内被调节且其可用作绝缘体的事实没有报道。
微电子线路和纳电子线路是本发明最重要的应用领域。根据International Road Map for Semiconductors(ITRS)[C.Case,Solid StateTechnology,Jan.,47(2004)][P.Zeitzoff,R.W.Murto,H.R.Huff,Solid StateTechnology,71(2002)],半导体工业需要一种低介电常数(k)的金属间绝缘体,其介电常数大大低于k=3.0。工业上期待低k解决方案。因此,开发一种与下一代集成电路(IC)制造相兼容的低k电介质是非常重要的。另一方面,继续努力寻找一种用于栅绝缘的高k电介质。
根据历史上的摩尔定律[G.E.Moore,Electronics 38,114(1965)][G.E.Moore,IEDM Technical Digest,Washington DC,11(1975)],在CMOS技术中继续按比例缩小。需要多级金属化以适应多个有源元件的信号集成。这些金属互连中的电阻和寄生电容是限制下一代系统中IC性能的重要因素。这引起工业从铝/SiO2转移向铜/低k结构。虽然铜降低了线电阻,但是低k电介质降低了金属线之间的寄生电容。
为了克服晶体管尺寸的按比例缩小中的困难,每单位面积的电容要保持恒定。因此,需要一种高k值电介质。这些电介质可以是氧化物和硅酸盐如Al2O3、ZrO2、HFO2。C.J.Parker,G.Lucovsky和J.R.Hauser,IEEE Electron.Device Lett.(1998);Y.Wu和G.Lucovsky,IEEEElectron.Device Lett(1998);H.Yang和G.Lucovsky,IEDM Digest,(1999)已经提出了使用这些材料的解决方案。然而,对于克服关于经济成本和界面缺陷数量存在非常困难的挑战。本发明的隐晶技术能提供该领域中的潜在解决方案。例如,保持原生(native)栅极氧化物的优点,可以使用隐晶形成高k电介质。
集成电路中的金属线通过介电绝缘体相互电绝缘。随着IC尺寸变得更小,金属线之间的距离降低,由此导致增加的电容。这导致RC延迟,功率损失,电容感应信号或串扰。
使用具有低于SiO2的介电常数的介电常数的聚合物作为互连绝缘体。但是,聚合物不坚固的事实是重要的缺点。
掺杂碳的氧化物是低k电介质的解决方案。可以获得具有小于3.0的介电常数的氧化物。然而,关于使用寿命其表现出很大的缺点。
IC制造中通过降低有源电路元件的尺寸获得的性能特性在互连和封装元件中可能会损失。在这种情况下,不是晶体管的速度而是互连的RC延迟变得重要。而且,随着降低尺寸,需要更深的金属线,由此使得金属间电容比级间电容更重要。为了克服这些困难,需要极好的低k电介质和新的制造方法。当前的低k电介质由氧化物和聚合物构成。隐晶可以是潜在的解决方案。由此,能通过避免相邻电路之间的串扰实现高性能IC。
一种解决方案是使用气隙降低电容的方法[B.Shieh等人,IEEEElectron Device Letters,19,no.1,p.16-18(1998)][D.L.Wollesen,Lowcapacitance interconnection,美国专利号No:5,900,668,1999年5月4日提交]。在这些解决方案中,SiO2已经用作级间和金属间电介质。美国专利号Nos.US 5,470,802,US 5,494,858、US 5,504,042和US 5,523,615专利涉及通过气隙降低电容的可能性。但是在这些方法中,粗糙的(harsh)化学物质应当用于形成气隙。隐晶技术在制造气隙中可提供更简单、无损伤、低成本的解决方案。
发明内容
本发明涉及ASiF隐晶,其介电值能通过几种方法调节并且能在Si和Si基晶片上合成。通过扩散,ASiF隐晶的介电常数能从其最小值1.50调节到较高得多的值(所需的)。由此,隐晶能具有其它特性如铁电体性和光发射。
本发明对于低成本和高性能的低k技术提供一种重要的替换方案。因为其是从潜在的集成电路晶片获得的并具有低于2.00的介电常数。该值比2007年及之后的ITRS所预测的更小。
本发明在Si CMOS技术和GaAs技术中、在增加异质结双极型晶体管(HBT)特性、高密度信息存储和信息安全、微电子封装、光电部件制造、IC系统冷却、技术集成和传感器制造方面具有重要的应用。

具体实施方式
已经研究出一种用于在硅(Si)和Si基晶片上合成氟化硅铵(ASiF)的方法。在该方法中,我们使用我们已经研究出的汽相生长技术[S.Kalem和O.Yavuz,OPTICS EXPRESS 6,7(2000)]。通过该方法,我们通过使氢氟酸(HF)和硝酸(HNO3)的蒸汽在晶片表面上反应来生长隐晶层。具有白粒状颜色的隐晶层在晶片上以1μm/小时的生长速度合成。
该技术的优点是:i)不需要电接触,ii)可以在表面上选择性写入,iii)层是同质的,iv)能控制厚度,v)可以形成扩散阻挡,vi)与其它常规技术相比节省成本。
当常规化学制剂的混合物蒸汽在晶片上反应时,隐晶氟化硅铵层(NH4)2SiF6(ASiF)形成于现有技术晶片上。该方法称作化学汽相处理(CVP)并包括以下步骤:
a)准备聚四氟乙烯生长室和超声清洗工艺;
b)制备包含比率为(4-10)∶(1-8)的HF、HNO3的化学制剂混合物和25-50%的氢氟酸(HF)以及55-75%的硝酸(HNO3);
c)用氮气冲洗该混合物并以一片晶片共腾(priming)该混合物10秒;
d)用待处理的晶片完全封闭室口;
e)确保反应产物通过排气通道从腔室中排空;
f)控制Ph和温度;
g)通过在晶片上HF和HNO3种类之间的遵循以下反应式的硅居间耦合反应,隐晶层形成于晶片上:
X+6HF+2HNO3→(NH4)2XF6+3O2
其中X可以是Si、Ge或C。
h)晶片以1μm的速度被转变成隐晶层;
i)可以退火隐晶层并且能增强其强度和密度;
j)在氮气氛下在50℃以上将隐晶转变为纳米结构且特别是微米和纳米线。
这里是在隐晶层制造中使用的晶片特性:
1.在5-10欧姆-cm之间的电阻率
2.p型、硼掺杂、(100)和(111)取向的Si
3.n型、磷掺杂、(100)和(111)取向的Si
4.在硅SiO2/Si上的硅原生氧化物(热氧化物)
5.化学计量的硅上Si3N4(Si/Si3N4)
6.Si1-XGeX,x<0.3(Si上Si1-XGeX)
隐晶制造装置由衬底(1)、用于产物(2)反应的气体排气通道、聚四氟乙烯容器(3)、蒸汽处理室(4)、化学制剂混合物(5)、Ph计(7)、化学制剂提取门(9)、加热器(8)和温度控制器(6)、室口和样品夹具(11)以及氮闪蒸(10)。
隐晶层由不可辨别的颗粒(12)形成,如通过光学极性显微镜和甚至通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)表明的。此外,其具有光滑界面(13)并且很好地集成到晶片上,如SEM界面研究所表明的。
X射线衍射分析表明隐晶优先在<111>方向(14)上生长。衍射峰及其相对强度在表1中总结。

具有白色的隐晶(12)以规则薄层形式形成于晶片(1)上。退火试验表明ASiF停留在高达约150℃的表面上。其在该温度以上分解。
根据退火温度,ASiF的体晶(15)形成于该表面上。这些晶体的尺寸可以高达15μm×30μm。
隐晶可选择性地实现为晶片上的点(16)。
制造尺寸从几纳米直到一微米且长度高达50μm的纳米线(17)。而且,制造多种纳米结构且特别是纳米支路。
ASiF隐晶的室温光学特性显示出振动峰,如表2中所总结的。频率与ASiF中N-H(18)、Si-O(19)和(ve)Si-F(20)的各种结合结构的振动相关。Si-O振动与界面处氧化物层的存在有关。
表2,ASiF隐晶的FTIR数据总结,其中VS:非常坚固,S:坚固,M:中间,W:弱,VW:非常弱。
Figure GA20171853200680017063101D00091
FTIR分析表明ASiF在3μm(18)、7μm(18)、13.6μm(20)和20.8μm(21)具有强吸收凹槽,且由此其可用在光学应用中。
在本发明的另一应用中,隐晶层位于(异质双极型晶体管,HBT)晶体管中的源极(23)-集电极(28)和漏极(25)-集电极(28)之间,以降低电容并由此提高HBT的高频性能。上述电容在III-V族化合物半导体基(GaAs/AlGaAs bazl1)HBT[M.Mochizuki,T.Nakamura,T.Tanoue和H.Masuda,Solid State Electronics 38,1619(1995)]和SiGe基HBT[
Figure GA20171853200680017063101D00092
和H.Dambkes,Solid State Electronics 38,1595(1995)]中起到非常重要的作用。在这种器件中,隐晶层位于基区(31)的两侧和源区(29)和漏区(30)的下方。在该结构中,在形成晶体管结构之后,基极的两侧已经使用上述方法被转变成隐晶。
通过增加对超高密度和高速应用的需要,对新的高性能信息存储系统有增加的兴趣[H.Coufal和G.W.Burr,International Trends in Optics,2002][美国专利号No.6,846,434]。在本发明的另一应用中,我们提供了解决高性能信息存储的替换解决方案。使用隐晶,可以在电子晶片上获得高密度存储单元(20)。在该应用中,已经可以在硅基晶片上通过形成隐晶单元(16)选择性写入。隐晶在相对低的温度下可能具有相位变化(16)的事实提供了擦除和改写的可能性。由此,低温下的快速相位变化特征能实现快速写入应用。而且,通过ASiF隐晶的8.5nm单位单元尺寸,可获得数量级为Tb/cm2的信息存储密度。在该领域中由隐晶技术引入的新颖性在于:i)可以在微电子晶片上写入而不进行光刻,ii)以Tb/cm2的范围提供高密度信息存储,iii)高速擦除和改写。
在信息安全应用中,隐晶用在垂直腔激光器或者LED中[A.C.Tpper,H.D.Foreman,A.Garnache,K.G.Wilcox,S.H.Hoogland,J.Phys,D:Appl.Phys.37,R75(2004)],正好在有源区(32)和顶部布拉格反射器(35)上方形成隐晶窗口(37)。由此,激光器或LED表面已经被转变成透明窗口。在此,ASiF必须通过帽盖层(33)保护。利用这种激光器/LED芯片能产生物理单向函数。He-Ne激光器自ASiF(38)的散射示出了可行性。该散射表明存在随机结构。这证明在信息安全中隐晶可用于产生安全密钥。与CMOS应用[A.Fort,F.Cortigiani,S.Rocchi和V.Vignoli,Analog Integrated Circuits and Signal Processing34,97(2003)]和使用无源元件的其它光学应用[R.Pappu,B.Recht,J.Taylor和N.Gershenfeld,Science 297,2026(2002)]相比,该方法更加节省成本且能够更好地集成到IC。
本发明能用于将两个晶片结合在一起。该方法包括通过CVP和在高温在H2O、氮气和氢气(H2)下按压两个晶片在两个晶片的表面上形成隐晶层。
