Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a chemical mechanical polishing process, and more particularly to a chemical mechanical polishing process and a method of increasing the accuracy of the polishing end point thereof. - [Prior Art] • With the rapid development of semiconductor process technology, the number of transistors produced per unit area on the wafer is increasing, and the accumulation of components is high. The more unacceptable the unevenness of the wafer surface In this case, the demand for wafer surface flatness is also increasing. Chemical meehariieal Polishing provides a good overall surface finish and has become an indispensable film planarization technology in the sub-micron process. For example, a chemical mechanical polishing process for a tungsten insert is shown in Fig. 1A. Figure 1A is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of a conventional metal interconnect. There is a layer of oxidized stone layer 111 on the substrate 101" of the wafer. The oxidized stone layer 111 has an opening. The oxidized layer 111 is covered with an adhesive layer 140. The material of the adhesive layer 140 is, for example, titanium nitride/titanium (TiN/Ti). The adhesive layer 140 is a conductor layer 150, and the material of the conductor layer 15 is, for example, a crane. The opening 13 is used for the 'contact hole', and the adhesive layer 140 and the conductor layer 150 filled in the opening 130 serve as conductive plugs. Since the surface of the f layer U1 is oxidized, wires are also formed to connect the respective conductive plugs. Therefore, the adhesive layer and the conductor layer on the surface of the oxidized layer 111 must be removed by a mechanical polishing process. How to accurately detect the grinding end point in order to avoid problems such as residual, dishing or erosi〇n caused by the premature end of the chemical mechanical polishing process or the long-term grinding process, It is one of the research focuses of the chemical mechanical polishing process. The method commonly used in the industry to detect the polishing end point is to irradiate the conductor layer 150 with an infrared laser, and perform a chemical mechanical polishing process on the layer to be polished (the conductor layer 150 and the adhesive layer 14 in FIG. The intensity of the reflection of the laser beam to be polished is continuously detected by the infrared light. Since the material of the layer to be polished mostly contains metal, the yttrium oxide layer ln is non-metal, and therefore, the intensity of the infrared laser for the layer to be polished is much greater than the intensity of the beam for the oxidized layer 111. Therefore, when the reflection intensity is detected, there is a tendency to decrease, and it can be inferred that the layer to be polished has been removed, and the surface of the ruthenium oxide layer 111 is exposed, which is the polishing end of the chemical mechanical polishing. On the other hand, the vigorous development of the slave integrated circuit has become more and more demanding on the component accumulating degree, and the result of the narrowing of the line width has increased the difficulty of the lithography process. In particular, when the material of the reflection I· raw material, such as metal or polycrystalline stone, is used, the surface of these materials is reflected by the surface of the Rongxian County, causing the deviation of the size of the photoresist layer and correcting the transfer.

Although the anti-reflection layer Or the necessity of the existence of #雷# p, ^ Γ layer has its effect on the lithography process, so - also created a new problem. That 1270135 16154twf.doc / g is 'when we use chemical mechanical polishing When the planarization step is performed, it may be changed from the original single-layer yttrium oxide layer 111 to the material layer 120 as shown in FIG. 1B. The material layer 120 is made of the substrate 101, for example, a yttrium oxide layer, a first dielectric anti-reflection. The layer 113, the second dielectric anti-reflective layer ι15 and the cap oxide layer 117. These layers will cause the reflection intensity of the infrared light laser to be less regular, the thickness of the layer to be polished is reduced, and the reflection intensity is On the contrary, it may rise, causing a disorder of the reflection intensity. This phenomenon will make it impossible for us to judge the polishing end point. If the polishing is terminated too early, the residue of the conductor layer 150 may be generated on the material layer 120, possibly causing a bridge. In contrast, if the grinding is terminated too late, the material layer 120 will be invaded, causing the material layer to be thinned at the same time and causing the conductor layer 150 to be excessive. Grinding, even in components with a relatively concentrated degree, may result in insufficient dielectric material between the metal interconnects and affect component operation. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a chemical mechanical polishing. The process and the method for increasing the accuracy of the polishing end point can avoid the problem that the detection intensity is unclear, and effectively improve the detection of the polishing end point of the chemical mechanical polishing process.

And the tendency of the reflection intensity obtained by detecting the wavelength is completely removed when the layer to be honed 2 is completely removed, and the period closer to the interface between the layer to be polished and the layer of material has a tendency to gradually decrease. The remaining wafer is then ground and the end of the grinding is detected using a beam of detected wavelength. According to the CMP process of the embodiment of the invention, the pre-grinding step comprises: (a) providing at least one wafer; (b) providing a test beam having a wave length, illuminating the wafer; (c) Pre-polishing the wafer to remove the layer to be polished until the material layer is exposed, and at the same time continuously detecting the intensity of the reflection of the test beam in the polishing process; and (the illusion is that the layer to be polished is about to be completely removed) And the closer to the trend of the reflection intensity of the interface between the layer to be polished and the material layer, if the intensity of the reflection gradually increases, repeat steps (a) to (d) to select another wafer and Another wave 1270135 ^IS^f.doc / g length 'to make another reflection intensity judgment until the reflection intensity has a tendency to gradually decline. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the chemical mechanical polishing process, the above wavelength The test beam can be provided by a chemical mechanical polishing machine having a single wavelength. In addition, the test beam can also be provided by a chemical mechanical polishing machine having a plurality of wavelengths. According to the CMP process of the embodiment of the present invention, the intensity of the reflection detected when the layer to be polished is to be completely removed is compared with the intensity of the reflection when the pre-grinding process has not been performed. , at least, 0.17. _ According to the chemical mechanical polishing process of the embodiment of the present invention, after repeating steps (a) to (d) a plurality of times, data of multi-array reflection intensity is obtained, and the data is selected. The wavelength at which the reflection intensity decreases most per unit time is the detection wavelength.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more <RTIgt; [Embodiment] The method of the present invention for increasing the accuracy of the polishing end point of the chemical mechanical polishing process is carried out before the chemical mechanical polishing process. The details are as follows. Figure 2 is a flow chart showing the steps of the method of increasing the accuracy of the grinding end point of a chemical mechanical polishing process. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of a test piece according to an embodiment of the invention. Referring to Figures 2 and 3, a test piece is first provided. The layer to be polished 31 is formed on the test piece 300 and the material layer 320 is located below the layer 31 to be polished (step 201). The layer to be polished 310, for example, i includes an adhesion layer 34 and a layer conductor layer 35. The material of the adhesive layer is, for example, niobium titanate/titanium (TiN/Ti). The material of the conductor layer 35 is, for example, 嫣德蓉导雷姑料. The material layer 320 from the substrate 301 may include a dielectric layer 3, a dielectric anti-reflective layer 313, an anti-reflective layer 315, and a cap oxide layer η. The material of the layer 311 is, for example, oxidized stone. The material of the dielectric anti-reflective layer is, for example, nitrogen (IV), oxynitride, oxygen-cut or reflective layer 315, such as titanium, titanium nitride, titanium-tungsten alloy, Wei zinc or other suitable materials. The above-mentioned layer to be polished 31Q is a conductor layer 35, and the material layer 320 is a dielectric layer 3, a dielectric anti-reflection layer 11 1270135 16154 twf.doc/g 313, an anti-reflection layer 315 and a cap oxide layer. For example, the 317 layer and the material layer 320 may be composed of other film layers or other materials, depending on the needs of the components. Further, the dielectric anti-reflection layer 313 and the anti-reflection layer 315 are, for example, film layers remaining in the previous lithography and fine film. Next, a test beam having a - wavelength is supplied, and the test piece 3 is irradiated (step 205). Then, a chemical mechanical polishing process is performed on the test piece 3, and the f-grinding layer 31 is removed until the material layer 320 is exposed, and at the same time, the side test beam is held in the polishing process to illuminate the surface of the test piece (ie, The resulting reflection intensity of the surface of the layer to be polished 310 (step 211). Then, it is judged that the layer to be polished 310 is about to be completely removed, and the closer to the period of the interface between the layer to be polished 310 and the layer of material 32 is reversed (step 215). In addition, in order to improve the accuracy of the lithography process, the film layer in the material layer 32 is not as simple as the conventional material layer (such as the dielectric layer =0 in the prior art). In this embodiment, the material layer 32 includes, for example, a dielectric layer 311, a dielectric anti-reflective layer 313, an anti-reflection layer 315, and a cap oxide layer 317. Therefore, the reflection intensity of the light beam when the test piece 300 is irradiated As the film is ground, there may be an upward trend, and the reflection intensity is disordered, and it is difficult to judge the end point of the polishing. Therefore, if the intensity of the reflection during this period has a tendency to gradually increase (step 221), then another test piece and another wavelength need to be selected, and step 2 is repeated with beams of different wavelengths (U, step 2〇5). Step 211 and step 215, another determination of the intensity of the reflection is performed until the trend of the reflection intensity is gradually decreasing. 12 1270135 16154twf.doc/g Of course, the other test piece has the same structure as the original test piece, so that The appropriate wavelength is tested. Right is the tendency of the reflection intensity to gradually decrease (step 231), and the test beam of this wavelength can be selected for detecting the polishing end point of the subsequent chemical mechanical polishing process. In an embodiment, to be ground The intensity of the reflection detected when the layer is about to be completely removed is at least reduced by 〇·17 compared to the intensity of the reflection detected when the chemical mechanical polishing process has not been performed. It is worth mentioning that although reflection The beam whose intensity is gradually decreasing is suitable for detecting the grinding end of the chemical mechanical polishing process. 'But, if the reflection intensity is reduced, the natural The easier it is to accurately detect the end point of the polishing. Therefore, after repeating step 2 (n, step 2〇5, step 2, and step 215 many times, data of multiple sets of reflection intensities can be obtained, and among these, the reflection per unit time is selected. The wavelength with the most drop in intensity is used for the subsequent grinding process. Since this wavelength is the wavelength at which the reflection intensity drops the most per unit time when the layer to be polished is to be completely removed, the long beam is used to detect the polishing end point. , will be the most appropriate and most accurate to accurately detect the wavelength of the grinding end point, which can increase the accuracy of the polishing end of the chemical mechanical polishing process. Also, in addition, the test beam is from a grinding machine. The optical instrument can provide only one specific length, and the method of changing the wavelength of the detection beam is to raise a grinding machine with another specific wavelength. Of course, the grinding machine Table: The light = the instrument can also be a beam that can provide a plurality of different wavelengths. At this time, the method of changing the wavelength of the detection beam can be Directly adjust the 13 1270135 16154twf.doc/g integer and convert it to another wavelength for testing. Therefore, the present invention is performed before the polishing process to determine the beam of a specific wavelength. Thereafter, the specific = beam is reused. Performing the monitoring of the polishing end point of the subsequent chemical mechanical polishing process, thereby increasing the accuracy of the polishing end point of the chemical mechanical polishing process. The following describes a method proposed by the above method for increasing the accuracy of the polishing end point of the chemical mechanical polishing process. The chemical mechanical polishing process, and the chemical mechanical polishing process is applied, for example, to a contact window process. Fig. ^ is a flow chart of the steps of the chemical milling (four) process of the embodiment - the reference 4, first provided A plurality of wafers have been formed with a +grinding layer and a layer of material underlying the layer to be polished (steps). Layer 5 is a layer conductor layer and a layer of adhesion layer. The material of the conductor layer is, for example, a conductive material such as tantalum tungsten, copper or nickel. Sticking ntm. The material layer may include a dielectric layer 反射 reflective layer, an anti-reflective layer, and a cap oxide layer from the substrate. Material of the dielectric layer The material of the oxygen-based anti-reflection layer is, for example, nitride nitride, nitrogen nitride or SixNy (0H)z. The material of the anti-reflection layer is, for example, a suitable material such as a two-neck alloy, a stone smear, or the like. Crystal mouth. A cross-sectional view of the test piece structure of Fig. 3 of Fig. The use of =, 1 far from at least one wafer is performed to perform a pre-grinding step to determine the measured wavelength of the polishing end point (step 405). In the pre-grinding step, the detector oil is used and the material layer is exposed to the layer to be polished. And a reflection intensity trend obtained by detecting the wavelength of 14 1270135 16154 twf.doc/g, which is gradually reduced when the layer to be polished is to be completely removed, and the closer to the interface between the layer to be polished and the material layer the trend of. This pre-grinding step is the method for increasing the accuracy of the grinding end point of the CMP process disclosed in the above embodiments. That is to say, step 405 includes each step mentioned in the above embodiment, except that the test piece 1 in the above embodiment is changed to the wafer here, so step 405 is in this embodiment. I won't go into details here. In the event of a storm, the remaining wafer is ground and the end of the grinding is detected using a beam of detected wavelength (step 411). It is worth mentioning that since the present invention precedes step 411, a wavelength test is performed to determine a beam of a particular wavelength (step 405). Thereafter, the light beam of this specific wavelength is used again to perform step 411'. Therefore, the accuracy of the polishing end point of the chemical mechanical polishing process can be increased. Further, after the polishing end point is detected, the wafer may be subjected to an over-polishing step (step 421) to prevent the layer to be ground from leaving a residue on the material layer, thereby causing bridging. In summary, the present invention performs a pre-grinding step before the chemical mechanical polishing process of the wafer is officially performed, and firstly tests which wavelength beam 'reflecting intensity for the wafer is moved along with the layer to be polished. In addition, there is a sharp drop. The beam, which is the wavelength at which the intensity of the reflection decreases the most, is used as a beam for detecting the end of the subsequent chemical mechanical polishing process. Even if a multi-layer film layer is provided under the layer to be polished, the grinding end point of the CMP process can be accurately determined. The price of the polishing end is not caused by the setting of other layers, but the phenomenon of reflection intensity ||L is generated. Therefore, the entire component can be completed according to the design of the component, avoiding the problem of bridging, short circuit, etc., and improving the component. Reliability and product yield. Further, in an example, the layer to be polished in the wafer is, for example, a film layer containing a film, and the material layer under the layer to be polished includes, for example, two layers of a dielectric anti-reflection layer. In the process of pre-polishing, when the wafer is irradiated with infrared light of a wavelength, the measured reflection intensity is as shown in FIG. 5. When the thickness of the layer to be polished is closer to 〇nm, the reflection intensity is increased. Potential. When other wavelengths are selected, and the light beams of 300 nm and 365 nm are respectively irradiated to the wafer, the detected reflection intensity is as shown in Fig. 6 (wavelength 3 〇〇 leg) and Fig. 7 (wavelength 365 plane), when The closer the thickness of the layer to be polished is to 〇nm, the decrease in the intensity of the reflection. It can be seen that the ship with a wavelength of 300, a wavelength of 365, and a wavelength of 673 can be used to polish the end of such a wafer in a chemical machine. Therefore, before the grinding process, the method of determining the detection wavelength will help the subsequent grinding system. Although the present invention has been difficult to achieve the above, the lining is used to limit the view.
