Description
Technical field
Present invention relates particularly to EUV needed for one kind multi-layer mirror used in extreme ultraviolet (EUV) photoetching technique
The characterized with good accuracy method of multilayer film microstructure.
Background technique
EUV lithography technology is considered as meeting semiconductor industry demand, most promising Next Generation Lithography.But
EUV wave band, almost all of material is all opaque, and refractive index very close 1, so EUV optical system cannot use
Traditional refraction optical element, and reflective optical system must be used.Therefore, the multilayer film of EUV light high reflectance is realized
As the core optical element of EUV optical system, meanwhile, EUV multilayer film also become EUV optical field science and technology research and development hot spot with
Core, the common concern by domestic and international research team.
EUV multilayer film obtains the material of high reflectance as optical wavelength used by optical system is different and different, with light
Wavelength concentrates on for the exposure optical system of 13.5nm range, and multilayer film mostly uses molybdenum (Mo) layer and silicon (Si) layer to be gradually superimposed
Mo/Si multilayer film, which can be realized the EUV light of vertical normal incidence 65%~68% reflectivity.Although
The higher EUV multilayer film of reflectivity can be experimentally developed, but since EUV multilayer film is the more complicated body of structure
System, there are still higher difficulty for the characterized with good accuracy of microstructure, and only realize the microstructure of EUV multilayer film
Characterized with good accuracy is just able to achieve the theoretical foundation that preferably provides of multilayer film technique, and setting for complicated aperiodic EUV multilayer film
Meter provides necessary theoretical calculation parameter.It researchs and analyses and shows that the higher reason of EUV multilayer film Microstructure characterization difficulty has three
: (1) there is diffusion in aspect, and the thickness of diffusion layer is only nm magnitude between multilayer film film layer.It is more by taking Mo/Si multilayer film as an example
The Diffusion barrier layer of tunic is generally the MoSi that generation is chemically reacted between Mo layers and Si layers2Film, thickness is between 1-3nm;
(2) interface roughness between multilayer film film layer is difficult to carry out accurate Characterization, and interface roughness has the reflectivity of multilayer film
Tremendous influence;(3) density of each film material of multilayer film determines the light refractive index for the material being coated with, and nm grades of thickness
Density of film is difficult directly to be measured.
For the characterization and analysis for realizing Mo/Si multilayer film microstructure, generallyd use in the context of detection of EUV multilayer film
Method has the fitting of grazing incidence X-ray reflectivity (GIXR) spectrum to solve, the fitting of EUV reflectance spectrum solves and transmission electron microscope
(TEM) detection methods such as observation.In the above-mentioned methods, GIXR is a kind of lossless high-precision detecting method, but disadvantage is this
The signal noise of detection is larger, and the parameter that nonlinear fitting needed for theoretical model solves is more, and hard X used by GIXR
Ray is insensitive between the physical characteristic of the diffusion layer multilayer film film layer;The noise of EUV reflectance spectrum is smaller, but waits periodic multilayer films
Spectral reflectance curve it is relatively simple, be difficult by its be fitted solve obtain multilayer film high-precision configuration parameter information;The side TEM
Although method can directly be observed multilayer film film layer structure, this method is a kind of destructive detection method, and its characterization is smart
Degree is not high, generally as the reference of multilayer film Microstructure characterization.
