A kind of formation method of dual-damascene structure
Technical field
The present invention relates to semiconductor integrated circuit and manufacture field, particularly the formation method of a kind of dual-damascene structure (dual damascene structure).
Background technology
Along with the fast development of semiconductor technology, the future development to miniaturization that the size of IC device design also continues.Based on market competition and industry demand, the performance/cost performance improving constantly product is the power of microelectric technique development.
Current semiconductor device CMOS has deep submicron structures, comprises the semiconductor element of enormous quantity in semiconductor integrated circuit IC.In this large scale integrated circuit, the high-performance between element, highdensity connection not only interconnect in single interconnection layer, and will interconnect between multilayer.Therefore, usually provide multilayer interconnect structure, wherein multiple interconnection layer is stacking mutually, and interlayer dielectric is placed in therebetween, for connecting semiconductor element.When particularly utilizing dual damascene (dual-damascene) technique to form multilayer interconnect structure, in interlayer dielectric, form interconnection groove and connecting hole in advance, then fill described interconnection groove and connecting hole with electric conducting material such as copper (Cu).
The main devices of integrated circuit especially in very lagre scale integrated circuit (VLSIC) is metal-oxide semiconductor fieldeffect transistor (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor is called for short MOS transistor).Since metal-oxide-semiconductor is invented, its physical dimension is constantly reducing always, and the number of transistors in chip constantly increases, and while the metal connecting line of chip is more and more thinner, level also gets more and more.Therefore increasing company have employed copper wiring and instead of original aluminum manufacturing procedure, and compared with aluminium, the resistance coefficient of copper is less, and fusing point is high, and deelectric transferred ability is strong, is therefore widely adopted.But because copper is difficult to be etched, the lithographic technique traditionally for the formation of aluminum metal wiring is inapplicable for copper.Therefore single mosaic technology and the dual-damascene technics of copper is developed.Because the efficiency of dual-damascene technics is higher, be therefore widely used.
