Description

Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and relates to a semiconductor device and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Existing Charge pumps (Charge pumps), also known as switched capacitor voltage converters, are converters that use so-called "fast" or "pumping" capacitors to store energy, mainly in applications including MOS (metal-oxide-silicon) capacitors and MOM (metal-oxide-metal) capacitors, which however generally require a large wafer area.
Taking 3D NAND as an example, 3D NAND is a technology of increasing capacity by vertically stacking memory cells to obtain higher storage density. In 3D NAND technology, the memory cell operates at a high voltage, so a capacitor is required to implement the voltage boosting. In the conventional 3D NAND architecture, the peripheral circuit (peripheral) and the stacked memory Array (Array) are usually fabricated on the same wafer, so that in such a 3D NAND architecture, the peripheral circuit may have enough space to form a capacitor with a larger plate area, so that a sufficient capacitance may be provided to meet the application requirements, and thus the technical problem of preparing a high-density, high-capacitance capacitor in the conventional 3D NAND architecture is not considered excessively. However, with the development of semiconductor technology, the preparation of integrated circuits with lower cost, faster and higher integration has become the target pursued by the existing semiconductor technology, so that the conventional large-sized 3D NAND architecture is no longer suitable for the development requirement, and similarly, the existing structure of the capacitor prepared by occupying a larger wafer area is no longer suitable for the development requirement, and how to prepare a high-density and high-capacitance capacitor in a limited space to meet the development trend of semiconductor devices has become an urgent problem to be solved.
Therefore, it is necessary to provide a novel semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same.

It should be noted that, the illustrations provided in the present embodiment merely illustrate the basic concept of the present invention by way of illustration, and only the components related to the present invention are shown in the drawings and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, and the form, number and proportion of each component in actual implementation may be changed at will, and the layout of the components may be more complex.
Comparative example
In the comparative example, a semiconductor device is exemplified by 3D NAND, as shown in fig. 1, which is a schematic structural diagram of the 3D NAND in the present comparative example, wherein the 3D NAND has a first wafer 10 and a second wafer 20, the first wafer 10 includes a metal interconnection layer 11, the second wafer 20 includes an array interconnection layer 21 and a functional array layer 22, and the 3D NAND is electrically connected to the metal interconnection layer 11 and the array interconnection layer 21 through a bonding process, thereby achieving the electrical connection of the first wafer 10 and the second wafer 20 to perform circuit control of the second wafer 20 through the first wafer 10.
It should be noted that, in fig. 1, only a part of the device structure is illustrated in the edge region of the first wafer 10 for simplicity of illustration, but it is understood that the entire first wafer 10 has the elements such as the transistor, the contact element, the metal interconnection layer, the shallow trench isolation structure, etc., and the specific elements and the distribution thereof may be selected and arranged according to the needs.
Specifically, since the conventional 3D NAND is to make the peripheral circuit (peripheral) and the stacked memory Array (Array) on the same wafer, in this comparative example, in order to reduce the device size, improve the integration level and improve the device quality, the peripheral circuit and the stacked memory Array are respectively made on different wafers, and the peripheral circuit and the stacked memory Array are electrically connected through a bonding process.
Referring to fig. 2, an enlarged schematic view of the area a of the first wafer 10 is shown, wherein the specific structure and preparation method of the second wafer 20 are described in the prior art, and the first wafer 10 may be applied to other semiconductor devices as needed, which is not limited herein.
The first wafer 10 includes a semiconductor substrate 100, a first dielectric layer 200, a contact element 300, and the metal interconnection layer 11. The semiconductor base 100 includes a semiconductor substrate 101, a transistor 102, a shallow trench isolation structure 103, and a passivation layer 104, and the transistor 102 includes a source 1021, a drain 1022, and a gate structure 1023, the transistor 102 may be a CMOS transistor, but is not limited thereto; the metal interconnection layer 11 includes the second dielectric layer 400, the metal layer 500 and the metal plug 600, but is not limited thereto, and the metal interconnection layer 11 may include other structures. The contact element 300 includes a first contact element 301 contacting the active region and a second contact element 302 contacting the gate structure 1023, so that a capacitor is formed by the first contact element 301 and the second contact element 302, and the first contact element 301 and the second contact element 302 are electrically connected to the outside, that is, the array interconnect layer 21 in the second wafer 20, through a first metal layer 501, a second metal layer 502, and a metal plug 600 located between the first metal layer 501 and the second metal layer 502 in the metal interconnect layer 11, respectively, it being understood that the first contact element 301 and the second contact element 302 form two plates of the capacitor, and that the capacitor further includes an insulating medium, that is, the first dielectric layer 200, located between the first contact element 301 and the second contact element 302.
In this case, since the contact element 300 is in contact with the active region and the gate structure 1023, it is necessary to consider the distance b between the contact element 300 and the gate structure 1023 and the overlapping distance a between the gate structure 1023 and the contact element 300 when forming the first contact element 301 and the second contact element 302, and thus it is difficult to further manufacture the capacitor having high capacitance.
In addition, as semiconductor technology advances toward higher density and higher capacity, the number of layers of the functional array layer 22 in the second wafer 20 is also increasing in the 3D NAND architecture, thereby requiring the first wafer 10 to have a denser distribution, so that the capacitors on the transistors 102 are also difficult to meet.
Furthermore, in the 3D NAND, in order to reduce the size of the 3D NAND, the first dielectric layer 200 is generally thin, so that the height of the contact element 300 is small, and thus the capacitance that the capacitor formed by the contact element 300 can provide is limited in height, thereby also limiting the feasibility of forming the capacitor with high capacitance.
Examples
To further solve the limitation of the semiconductor device in the comparative example in terms of high capacitance, the following is further improved.
Referring to fig. 3, the present embodiment provides a 3D NAND, the 3D NAND has a first wafer 10' and a second wafer 20', the first wafer 10' includes a metal interconnection layer 11', the second wafer 20' includes an array interconnection layer 21' and a functional array layer 22', and the 3D NAND is electrically connected to the metal interconnection layer 11' and the array interconnection layer 21' through a bonding process, so as to electrically connect the first wafer 10' and the second wafer 20', so as to control the circuit of the second wafer 20' through the first wafer 10 '.
It should be noted that, in fig. 3, only a part of the device structure is illustrated in the edge region of the first wafer 10 'for simplicity of illustration, but it is understood that the transistor, the contact element, the metal interconnection layer, the shallow trench isolation structure, etc. are all included in the first wafer 10', the specific distribution may be set according to needs, and the specific electrical connection manner between the contact element and the metal interconnection layer 11 'in the first wafer 10' in illustration may be selected according to needs, and only the contact element located on the same shallow trench isolation structure may be required to form a capacitor, and the specific electrical connection manner is not limited herein.
Referring to fig. 4, an enlarged schematic view of the area a 'of the first wafer 10' is shown, wherein the specific structure and preparation method of the second wafer 20 'are not described herein, and the first wafer 10' may be applied to other semiconductor devices as needed in another example, without being excessively limited thereto.
Wherein the first wafer 10' comprises:
a semiconductor substrate 110, wherein the semiconductor substrate 110 includes a transistor 112 and a shallow trench isolation structure 113;
a dielectric layer on the semiconductor substrate 110, wherein the dielectric layer covers the transistor 112 and the shallow trench isolation structure 113;
a contact element 310, the contact element 310 penetrating the dielectric layer, and the contact element 310 comprising at least one first contact element 311 and at least one second contact element 312 in contact with the same shallow trench isolation structure 113, such that a capacitor is constituted by the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312;
a metal interconnect layer 11', the metal interconnect layer 11' being located on the dielectric layer, and the metal interconnect layer 11' being electrically connected to the contact element 310.
Specifically, the semiconductor base 110 includes a semiconductor substrate 111, a transistor 112, a shallow trench isolation structure 113, and further may further include a passivation layer 114, and the transistor 112 includes a source 1121, a drain 1122, and a gate structure 1123, and the transistor 112 may be a CMOS transistor, but is not limited thereto; the dielectric layer is a first dielectric layer 210; the metal interconnect layer 11' includes a second dielectric layer 410, a metal layer 510, and a metal plug 610. The specific structure and type of the semiconductor substrate 110 and the metal interconnection layer 11' are not excessively limited herein. The contact element 310 includes the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 that are in contact with the same shallow trench isolation structure 113, so that the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 form the capacitor, and it can be understood that the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 form two plates of the capacitor, and the capacitor further includes the first dielectric layer 210 that is an insulating medium between the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312. Further, the contact element 310 further includes a contact element disposed on the transistor 112 and electrically connected to the gate structure 1123 and the active region of the transistor 112, respectively. Wherein the contact element 310 is electrically connected to the metal interconnection layer 11', so that the contact element 310 and the array interconnection layer 21' in the second wafer 20' can be connected through the metal interconnection layer 11' to perform circuit control on the second wafer 20 '.
In this embodiment, the contact element 310 is disposed on the shallow trench isolation structure 113 without considering the problem of the locations of the contact element 310 and the transistor 112, and the size of the contact element 310 is limited only by the precision of the etching process, so that the pitch of the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 can be effectively reduced to form the capacitor with smaller pitch to increase the capacitance.
As an example, in the capacitor, a space D1 is provided between the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312, and the range of the space D1 is 0.1 μm to 0.15 μm.
Specifically, referring to FIG. 5a, an enlarged top view of the area B of FIG. 4 is shown. Wherein, according to the principle of the capacitor, when the distance D1 between the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 is smaller, the capacitance of the capacitor can be increased. Further, when the distance D1 is smaller, the number of the contact elements 310 may be increased in a limited area to increase the distribution density of the capacitor, so as to expand the application range of the semiconductor device. The range of the distance D1 may include any value ranging from 0.1 μm to 0.15 μm, such as 0.12 μm, 0.14 μm, etc., which is not limited herein.
As an example, the range of the area S between the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 includes 0.01 μm 2 ~100μm 2
Specifically, according to the principle of the capacitor, as the area S facing between the first contact member 311 and the second contact member 312 is larger, the capacitance of the capacitor may be increased. To avoid increasing the size of the semiconductor device, the size of the contact element 310 is related to the size of the shallow trench isolation structure 113 and the thickness of the first dielectric layer 210, and in this embodiment, the range of the area S may include 1 μm 2 、10μm 2 、50μm 2 、100μm 2 And the like, and may be specifically selected as desired.
By way of example, the contact elements 310 are formed with an aspect ratio in the range of 1:1 to 2500:1, preferably 200:1 to 2500:1 or 1:1 to 20:1.
In particular, the contact element 310 includes a square morphology with an aspect ratio of 1:1, but may also include a rectangular morphology, which may be selected as desired.
Wherein the range of the length of the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 is 0.05 μm to 100 μm.
Specifically, in the embodiment, referring to fig. 5a, the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 adopt a wall shape, wherein the range of the length L1 of the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 may include 0.05 μm to 100 μm. In this embodiment, since the wall morphology is adopted, it is preferable to have a larger value of the length L1, such as 10 μm, 25 μm, 50 μm, 80 μm, 100 μm, etc., within 10 μm to 100 μm in order to increase the capacitance of the capacitor, but not limited thereto. As shown in fig. 5b and 5c, the shape of the contact element 310 is rectangular, and the lengths L2 and L3 are smaller than the length L1, for example, the lengths L2 and L3 may take values within 0.05 μm, 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.8 μm, etc. from 0.05 μm to 1.0 μm, so as to increase the distribution density of the capacitor and increase the capacitance by providing the contact element 310 with a smaller size,
the range of the widths of the first contact element 311 and the second contact element 312 is 40nm to 50nm.
Specifically, when the width of the contact element 310 is smaller, the number of the contact elements 310 may be increased in a limited area to increase the distribution density of the capacitor, but the width of the contact element 310 is also affected by the etching process, so that in this embodiment, the value of the width of the contact element 310 may be a point value in any range of 45nm, 48nm, 50nm, etc., which is not limited excessively.
