在諸如NMOS電晶體及PMOS電晶體之大多數高壓器件 中,通常自一基板之一表面形成一井至大致5微米至10微 米之深度。僅使用離子植入製程難以達成具有5微米至10 微米深度之井的摻雜分布。為此,在離子植入製程後應必 需使用高溫熱處理執行摻雜劑擴散過程。 然而,歸因於高溫熱處理,在矽本體中不能完全達成氧 析出。此引起在用於淺渠溝隔離(STI)之刻蝕製程後在矽基 ® 板中出現諸如環狀位錯之晶體缺陷。 此外,此等晶體缺陷降低生產良率,且亦惡化諸如高壓 器件之臨限電壓及靜態隨機存取記憶體(SRAM)之待用模 式期間的漏電流均一性之電參數特性。此外,此等晶體缺 ' 陷增加在雜質檢驗過程(其為製造半導體器件所必需執行 之過程)期間用以檢驗及分析大量缺陷的時間,從而導致 製造半導體器件之總處理時間的增加。 【發明内容】 142898.doc 201026914

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to semiconductor manufacturing technology, and more particularly to a germanium wafer and a method of fabricating the same. The present invention claims the priority of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2008-0095462 and No. 10-2009-0003 697, filed on Sep. 29, 2008, and January 16, 2009, to the Korean Intellectual Property Office. The patent application is incorporated herein by reference. ® [Prior Art] In most high voltage devices such as NMOS transistors and PMOS transistors, a well is typically formed from the surface of one of the substrates to a depth of approximately 5 microns to 10 microns. It is difficult to achieve a doping profile of a well having a depth of 5 microns to 10 microns using only an ion implantation process. For this reason, it is necessary to perform a dopant diffusion process using a high temperature heat treatment after the ion implantation process. However, due to the high temperature heat treatment, oxygen evolution cannot be completely achieved in the crucible body. This causes crystal defects such as ring dislocations to occur in the ruthenium ® plate after the etching process for shallow trench isolation (STI). In addition, such crystal defects reduce production yield and also deteriorate electrical parameter characteristics such as the threshold voltage of the high voltage device and the leakage current uniformity during the standby mode of the static random access memory (SRAM). Moreover, such crystal defects increase the time to inspect and analyze a large number of defects during the impurity inspection process, which is a process that must be performed to fabricate a semiconductor device, resulting in an increase in the total processing time for fabricating a semiconductor device. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 142898.doc 201026914 Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a Shihwa wafer for preventing crystal defects from being caused by a thermal budget caused by a subsequent high-temperature heat treatment process by sufficiently increasing a gettering site .

Further, it is apparent that the objects and advantages of the present invention can be realized by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. The advantages, features, and aspects of the present invention will become apparent from the following description of the embodiments illustrated in the appended claims. In the figures, 4 illustrates ί青楚, exaggerating the dimensions of layers and regions. It should also be understood that when a layer (or film) is referred to as being "on another layer or substrate," it can be directly on another layer or substrate, or an intervening layer can also be present. In addition, it should be understood that when a layer is referred to as "below another layer," it can be directly in the singularity of one or more intervening layers. In addition, it should also be understood that when a layer is referred to as "between two layers," it can be a "layer" or a plurality of intervening layers between two layers. The present invention achieves the same and uniform BMD density in the body region by using a two-step annealing process for the wafer crucible. As a result, the present invention can prevent crystal defects from being generated due to the thermal budget caused by the subsequent high-temperature heat treatment process by sufficiently increasing the gettering site. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a tantalum wafer in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1 , the germanium wafer 100 includes: a first ablation region DZ1 formed to have a predetermined depth starting from a top surface 1〇1 of the germanium wafer; and a body region region The body region Βκ is formed between the first ablation region DZ1 and a back surface 1 〇2. The wafer i00 further includes a second stripping region DZ2 formed to have a predetermined depth from the back surface 102 toward the top surface 101. The first ablation region DZ1 formed to have a predetermined depth from the top surface 101 toward the back surface 1〇2 is a defect-free region (DFZ) which does not have crystal defects such as vacancies and dislocations. Preferably, the first ablation zone DZ1 is formed to have a depth ranging from about 20 micrometers to about 80 micrometers from the direction of the top surface 101 toward the back surface 102. The second stripping zone DZ2 is also DFZ and is formed to have the same depth as the depth of the first ablation zone DZ1 from the back surface 1〇2 toward the top surface 101, or according to the polishing process for the back surface 102, the second ablation zone DZ2 is formed to have a depth smaller than the depth of the first ablation region DZ1. That is, when the top surface 101 and the back surface 102 of the wafer 1 are mirror-polished without difference, the same 142898.doc 201026914 depth forms the first ablation region DZ1 and the second ablation region DZ2 having the same depth. . On the contrary, when the top surface 1〇1 is mirror-polished and the back surface 1〇2 is not mirror-polished, the second ablation region DZ2′ having a depth smaller than the depth of the first ablation region DZ1 is formed because of the roughness according to the back surface 1〇2 An oxygen precipitate is formed next to the back surface 102. The body region BK formed between the first ablation zone DZ1 and the second ablation zone dZ2 includes a bulk microscopic defect (BMD) 103. The BMD 103 remains uniform throughout the body area. BMD 103 includes precipitates and bulk stacks. In addition, the BMD 103 in the body region BK can be controlled to have a sufficient density to absorb metal contaminants to be diffused on the surface of the wafer via subsequent high temperature heat treatment processes or thermal processes. The BMD 103 in the body region Βκ is preferably maintained from a density of approximately lxlO5 ea/cm2 to approximately ixi〇7 ea/cm2 and more preferably from approximately lxlO6 ea/cm2 to lxlO7 ea/cm2. The concentration of oxygen in the bulk region Βκ (hereinafter referred to as "oxygen concentration") is closely related to the oxygen precipitate, and the oxygen concentration is preferably distributed throughout the body region BK within 10% and is maintained from approximately 10.5 to approximately 13 PPMA (atoms) Parts per million). 2 is a cross-sectional view illustrating a method for fabricating a germanium wafer in accordance with a first embodiment of the present invention. Referring to Figure 2, a germanium wafer 200 is prepared. At this time, the germanium wafer 200 may be a bare die. The germanium wafer 200 can be formed in the following steps. First, after the single crystal is grown, the single crystal stone is cut into a wafer shape. The top surface 201 and the back surface 202 of the Shixi wafer 200 are mirror-polished after performing the engraving process to scribe the surface of the wafer or round the side of the diced wafer. At this time, a single crystal crucible was grown using a Czochralski (CZ) crystal growth method. This 142898.doc ^ 201026914 outer can perform a mirror polishing process on the wafer 200 after the subsequent thermal process. The first thermal process of the wafer 200 is performed such that the oxide element 203 between the top surface 201 and the back surface 202 of the germanium wafer 2 is diffused internally. As a result, the first stripping area DZ1 and the second stripping area DZ2 and the body area BK are formed. The first thermal process can be an RTP (rapid thermal process) or an annealing process using a furnace apparatus. Preferably, the first thermal process comprises RTP. In order to rapidly diffuse the top surface 201 of the tantalum wafer 200 and the oxide halogen 203 in the back surface 202, the first thermal process is performed at a high temperature using argon (Ar) gas, nitrogen (NO gas, ammonia (NH 3 ) gas, or a combination thereof). When the first thermal process is a ruler, the first thermal process is performed at a temperature ranging from 1050 ° C to approximately 115 〇t for about 10 seconds to about 30 seconds. When the first thermal process is an annealing process, Performing the first thermal process for a period of approximately 1 minute to approximately 300 minutes at a temperature ranging from 1050 C to approximately 1150 C. Next, performing a second thermal process on the germanium wafer 200 such that the oxide in the body region BK 2〇3 combination. As a result, an oxygen precipitate core 204 is produced. Similar to the first thermal process, the second thermal process may be RTp or an annealing process using a furnace apparatus. The second thermal process preferably includes RTp.

Fig. 9 to Fig. 12 are graphs illustrating the oxygen concentration in the body region of each condition. Referring to Table 2 and Figure 7, BMD densities greater than 1 χ 1 〇 5 ea/cm 2 were obtained under all conditions. In particular, 13 BMD densities greater than 1 χ 1 〇 6 ea/cm 2 were obtained under conditions ( (independent of oxygen concentration). Although no data is presented regarding the BMD density of a germanium wafer fabricated by performing only RTP-times or twice, it is predicted that the BMD density will be significantly lower than the BMD density under the above conditions. Controlling metal contaminants by drawing BMD. However, because BMD density tends to decrease during high temperature processing, high BMD density needs to be ensured during the fabrication of germanium wafers. In general, semiconductor devices need to operate in a high voltage environment. High voltage device. For manufacturing For high-voltage devices, it is necessary to perform a heavy ion implantation process and a high-temperature annealing process because it requires a deep-distributed bonding region (ie, a doped region). When the bmd density is lowered during the high-temperature annealing process, not only (4) Defect assessment and attribution * Low absorption of this force 'After the shallow trench isolation (sti), a circular dislocation occurs. The result of measuring the BMD density by f, when the BMD density is approximately 2.5X105 ea/cn^ Some annular dislocations occur, but no annular dislocations occur when the bmd density is approximately m. Therefore, it is necessary to control the BMD density to be greater than 142898.doc • 16 - 201026914 at least 1x10 ea/cm. In this embodiment, and manufacturing Regardless of the conventional thermal process during the wafer, a two-step annealing process is additionally performed for the initial process of fabricating the semiconductor device. The initial process includes an oxidation process performed prior to ion implantation for forming a well. The oxidation process corresponds to The process for forming a masking oxide layer during ion implantation for forming a well (hereinafter, referred to as well ion implantation). Referring to Table 2 and Figure 8, showing each Dz depth. DZ depth is closely related to BMD mobility and oxygen concentration. As BMD density and oxygen concentration increase, DZ depth becomes smaller. #Oxygen concentration is the same under each condition (for example, 11.6 in Table 2) The BMD density under conditions 丨 and 2 is higher than the BMD density under conditions 3 and 4, but the DZ depth under conditions 丨 and 2 is lower than the DZ depth under conditions 3 and 4. Therefore, 〇2 depth It can be measured by bmd density. See Table 2 and Figure 9 to Figure 12 for the BMD density and DZ depth according to the oxygen concentration under each condition. As the oxygen concentration (〇i) increases, the bmd density changes. The DZ depth becomes smaller. Therefore, the oxygen concentration (〇〇 is also measured as the βμ〇 density. That is, the BMD density in the body region can be calculated by measuring the Dz depth and the oxygen concentration (〇i). Fig. 13 and Fig. 14 are Shi Xi Cross-sectional view of a wafer.

As shown, a plurality of dream dislocations appear in the Shi Xi wafer of the figure, but not in the wafer of 142898.doc 17 201026914 In addition, when an epitaxial layer is formed by epitaxial growth, crystal defects in the bulk region of the germanium wafer in which the epitaxial layer is formed are remarkably reduced. FIGS. 15 and 16 illustrate Shi Xijing. A crystal defect map of a central body region in which a stray layer is formed. This inspection is performed using an inspection device manufactured by KLA Corporation. As shown in Fig. 15, a large number of crystal defects are observed in an oxidation process without a two-step annealing process. Distributed in the figure. In this article, The oxidation process forms a masking oxide layer during well ion implantation. Conversely, as shown in Figure 16, 'the crystal defects are significantly reduced when performing the two-step annealing process with the present invention. In the following, reference will be made to Figure 17A. Figure 17D details a method for fabricating a semiconductor device having a well for a device under pressure, the method comprising a two-step annealing process in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Figures 17A through 17D illustrate an embodiment in accordance with the present invention. A method for fabricating a semiconductor device. Referring to FIG. 17A, a mask oxide layer 6〇1 is formed on a germanium wafer 600 using the two-step annealing process shown in FIG. 6. The germanium wafer 6 can be as shown in FIG. The wafers to which RTP is applied once or twice as described in Figure 4, or bare wafers to which RTP is not applied as described in Figure 5. The masking oxide layer 6 can be an oxidized second layer, And forming a thickness ranging from approximately 10 A to approximately 14 A. Referring to FIG. 17B, a well 602 is formed in the tantalum wafer 600 to a predetermined depth. Depending on the conductivity type of the high voltage device, the well 6〇2 may have p Type or n type conductive 14289 8.doc •18· 201026914 Type. Wells are formed through ion implantation processes and diffusion processes. It is difficult to form wells for high voltage devices using only ion implantation processes. Therefore, it should be performed after completion of the ion implantation process. The diffusion process and the ion implantation process are such that a well 602 having the doping profile of Fig. 17B is formed. The diffusion process is performed for a long period of time via an annealing process using a high temperature heating device such as a furnace. Preferably, only nitrogen is used (NO The gas is in the range of approximately 11 〇〇. The diffusion process is performed at a temperature of approximately 250 = ^ for approximately 6 hours to approximately 1 hour. Referring to Figure 17C, a pad nitride layer serving as a hard mask (not shown) ) is formed on the mask oxide layer 601, or a pad nitride layer is formed on a buffer layer (not shown) formed by performing an additional oxidation process after removing the mask oxide layer 601. The reason for removing the masking oxide layer 6〇1 is that the masking oxide layer 601 is not suitable for the buffer layer because the masking oxide layer 6〇1 is damaged during the ion implantation process. A photoresist pattern 604 for forming an STI trench is then formed over the pad nitride layer. φ The pad nitride layer can be formed via a low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) process to prevent damage to the germanium wafer 600 during the deposition process by minimizing stress applied to the broken wafer. The pad nitride layer may be formed of tantalum nitride. A pad nitride layer can be formed to a thickness ranging from approximately 14 Å to approximately 2000 Å. The photoresist pattern 604 is used as a button mask to partially etch the pad nitride layer, the mask oxide layer 6〇1, and the germanium wafer 6〇〇 in order, thereby forming a pad nitride pattern 603, masking oxidation. The pattern 601A, the wafer 6A, and the well 602A. As a result, a trench 605 having a predetermined depth and a slope of 142898.doc • 19 - 201026914 is formed in the germanium wafer 6A. Referring to Fig. 17D, a device isolation structure 6?6 filling the trenches 6?5 is formed, and then the pad nitride pattern 6?3 and the mask oxide pattern 6?ia are removed. The device isolation structure 606 can be formed from a high density plasma (HDP) layer having excellent gap fill properties. While comparing the method of the present invention with a comparative example, the advantageous effects of the above embodiments of the present invention will be described below. The method of the present invention comprises forming a masking oxide layer via an oxidation process using a two-step annealing process, and a comparative example includes forming a masking oxide layer via an oxidation process using a one-step annealing process. In the oxidation process of this comparative example, a tantalum wafer was oxidized using a wet oxidation process at a single temperature ranging from 800 C to 850 °C. 18 to 21 illustrate defects in a germanium wafer prepared by the oxidation process of the comparative example. In particular, Fig. 18 illustrates a graph of crystal defects examined by a testing apparatus manufactured by KLa Corporation after forming a trench through a STI process in a wafer prepared by a comparative example oxidation process. As shown in Fig. 18, it is observed that crystal defects such as ring-shaped defects are present in most defective wafers. 19 and 20 are scanning electron microscope microscopic (SEM) images of a ruthenium wafer obtained by an inspection apparatus manufactured by KLA Corporation. Specifically, Fig. 19 is a SEM image showing the wearing surface of the enamel wafer, and Fig. 20 is a plane tilt STM image.

However, a small number of BMDs are formed in the central portion of the germanium wafer, that is, formed in the body region. . That is, the BMD density of the body region is significantly lower than the BMD density of the top surface of the wafer. 22 to 24 are test results of crystal defects in a germanium wafer prepared by an oxidation process using a two-step annealing process according to an embodiment of the present invention.
