Description

负载效应的监控方法和版图Monitoring method and layout of load effect

技术领域technical field

本申请涉及半导体制造技术领域,具体涉及一种半导体器件的沟负载效应的监控方法和版图。The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, and in particular, to a method and layout for monitoring the channel load effect of a semiconductor device.

背景技术Background technique

在半导体制造的刻蚀过程中,当需要被刻蚀的图形裸露在反应气体或溶液中时,关键尺寸(critical dimension,CD)较大的图形的被刻蚀速率小于关键尺寸较小的图形,这是由于关键尺寸较大的区域中被消耗掉的程度较之关键尺寸较小的区域更为严重,导致反应物浓度较低,而刻蚀速率与反应物浓度成正比,这种现象被称之为负载效应(loadingeffect)In the etching process of semiconductor manufacturing, when the pattern to be etched is exposed to the reactive gas or solution, the etching rate of the pattern with a larger critical dimension (CD) is lower than that of the pattern with a smaller critical dimension, This is due to the fact that regions with larger critical dimensions are consumed to a greater extent than regions with smaller critical dimensions, resulting in lower concentrations of reactants, and the etch rate is proportional to the concentration of reactants, a phenomenon known as Loading effect

在集成有半导体功率器件的晶圆上,通常包含有不同特征尺寸的沟槽结构(例如深槽隔离(deep trench isolation,DTI)结构),由于负载效应,不同特征尺寸的沟槽结构的深度不同,当负载效应影响较大导致不同特征尺寸的沟槽结构的深度差异过大时,会造成器件的击穿电压较低,降低器件的稳定性。On a wafer with integrated semiconductor power devices, trench structures with different feature sizes (such as deep trench isolation (DTI) structures) are usually included. Due to the loading effect, the depths of the trench structures with different feature sizes are different. , when the influence of the load effect is large, and the depth difference of the trench structures with different feature sizes is too large, the breakdown voltage of the device will be lower, and the stability of the device will be reduced.

鉴于此,相关技术中,通常会对晶圆进行切片,获得切片样品,通过电子显微镜(transmission electron microscope,TEM)对切片样品进行量测,得到不同特征尺寸的沟槽结构的深度,从而对不同特征尺寸的沟槽深度的负载效应进行监控。In view of this, in the related art, the wafer is usually sliced to obtain a sliced sample, and the sliced sample is measured by a transmission electron microscope (TEM) to obtain the depth of the trench structure with different feature sizes, so as to measure the depth of the groove structure with different feature sizes. The loading effect of the trench depth of the feature size is monitored.

然而,通过TEM对切片样品进行量测的时间较长,监控效率较低;同时,无法实现对负载效应进行实时监控,监控的时效性较差。However, the measurement time of sliced samples by TEM is long, and the monitoring efficiency is low; at the same time, real-time monitoring of the loading effect cannot be realized, and the monitoring timeliness is poor.
