Hdp-Cvd Dep/Etch/Dep Process For Improved Deposition Into High Aspect Ratio Features

View page
US Patent:
6908862, Jun 21, 2005
Filed:
May 3, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/138189
Inventors:
Dongqing Li - Santa Clara CA, US
Xiaolin C. Chen - San Jose CA, US
Lin Zhang - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L021/311
US Classification:
438700, 438666, 438667, 438668, 438672, 438673, 438978, 216 39
Abstract:
A method of depositing a film on a substrate disposed in a substrate processing chamber. The method includes depositing a first portion of the film by forming a high density plasma from a first gaseous mixture flown into the process chamber. The deposition processes is then stopped and part of the deposited first portion of the film is etched by flowing a halogen etchant into the processing chamber. Next, the surface of the etched film is passivated by flowing a passivation gas into the processing chamber, and then a second portion of the film is deposited over the first portion by forming a high density plasma from a second gaseous mixture flown into the process chamber. In one embodiment the passivation gas consists of an oxygen source with our without an inert gas.

Deposition-Selective Etch-Deposition Process For Dielectric Film Gapfill

View page
US Patent:
7081414, Jul 25, 2006
Filed:
May 23, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/445240
Inventors:
Lin Zhang - San Jose CA, US
Xiaolin Chen - San Jose CA, US
DongQing Li - Santa Clara CA, US
Thanh N Pham - San Jose CA, US
Farhad K Moghadam - Saratoga CA, US
Zhuang Li - San Jose CA, US
Padmanabhan Krishnaraj - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/302
US Classification:
438710, 438221, 438706, 438723
Abstract:
A deposition/etching/deposition process is provided for filling a gap in a surface of a substrate. A liner is formed over the substrate so that distinctive reaction products are formed when it is exposed to a chemical etchant. The detection of such reaction products thus indicates that the portion of the film deposited during the first etching has been removed to an extent that further exposure to the etchant may remove the liner and expose underlying structures. Accordingly, the etching is stopped upon detection of distinctive reaction products and the next deposition in the deposition/etching/deposition process is begun.

Appl. No.:
10/841582
Inventors:

Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/44
US Classification:
438680, 438513, 438905
Abstract:
A method of operating a substrate processing chamber that includes, prior to a substrate processing operation, flowing a seasoning gas comprising silane and oxygen into said chamber at a flow ratio of greater than or equal to about 1. 6:1 oxygen to silane to deposit a silicon oxide film over at least one aluminum nitride nozzle exposed to an interior portion of the chamber. Also, a substrate processing system that includes a housing, a gas delivery system for introducing a seasoning gas into a vacuum chamber, where the gas delivery system comprises one or more aluminum nitride nozzles exposed to the vacuum chamber, a controller and a memory having a program having instructions for controlling the gas delivery system to flow a seasoning gas that has an oxygen to silane ratio greater than or equal to about 1. 6:1 to deposit a silicon oxide film on the aluminum nitride nozzles.

Post Deposition Plasma Treatment To Increase Tensile Stress Of Hdp-Cvd Sio

View page
US Patent:
7465680, Dec 16, 2008
Filed:
Sep 7, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/221303
Inventors:
Xiaolin Chen - San Jose CA, US
Srinivas D. Nemani - Sunnyvale CA, US
DongQing Li - Fremont CA, US
Jeffrey C. Munro - Santa Clara CA, US
Marlon E. Menezes - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/31
H01L 21/469
US Classification:
438788, 438778, 438782, 438787, 438798, 257E21625
Abstract:
A plasma treatment process for increasing the tensile stress of a silicon wafer is described. Following deposition of a dielectric layer on a substrate, the substrate is lifted to an elevated position above the substrate receiving surface and exposed to a plasma treatment process which treats both the top and bottom surface of the wafer and increases the tensile stress of the deposited layer. Another embodiment of the invention involves biasing of the substrate prior to plasma treatment to bombard the wafer with plasma ions and raise the temperature of the substrate. In another embodiment of the invention, a two-step plasma treatment process can be used where the substrate is first exposed to a plasma at a processing position directly after deposition, and then raised to an elevated position where both the top and bottom of the wafer are exposed to the plasma.

US Patent:
7745351, Jun 29, 2010
Filed:
Oct 15, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/252260
Inventors:
Xiaolin Chen - San Jose CA, US
Srinivas D. Nemani - Sunnyvale CA, US
DongQing Li - Fremont CA, US
Jeffrey C. Munro - Santa Clara CA, US
Marlon E. Menezes - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/31
H01L 21/469
US Classification:
438788, 438782, 438798, 257E21241
Abstract:
Methods of forming a dielectric layer where the tensile stress of the layer is increased by a plasma treatment at an elevated position are described. In one embodiment, oxide and nitride layers are deposited on a substrate and patterned to form an opening. A trench is etched into the substrate. The substrate is transferred into a chamber suitable for dielectric deposition. A dielectric layer is deposited over the substrate, filling the trench and covering mesa regions adjacent to the trench. The substrate is raised to an elevated position above the substrate support and exposed to a plasma which increases the tensile stress of the substrate. The substrate is removed from the dielectric deposition chamber, and portions of the dielectric layer are removed so that the dielectric layer is even with the topmost portion of the nitride layer. The nitride and pad oxide layers are removed to form the STI structure.

US Patent:
7902080, Mar 8, 2011
Filed:
May 25, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/753968
Inventors:
Xiaolin Chen - San Jose CA, US
Srinivas D. Nemani - Sunnyvale CA, US
Shankar Venkataraman - Santa Clara CA, US
Assignee:
Applied Materials, Inc. - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
H01L 21/302
US Classification:
438723, 438706, 438725, 438743, 216 80
Abstract:
Methods of filling a gap on a substrate with silicon oxide are described. The methods may include the steps of introducing an organo-silicon precursor and an oxygen precursor to a deposition chamber, reacting the precursors to form a first silicon oxide layer in the gap on the substrate, and etching the first silicon oxide layer to reduce the carbon content in the layer. The methods may also include forming a second silicon oxide layer on the first layer, and etching the second layer to reduce the carbon content in the second layer. The silicon oxide layers are annealed after the gap is filled.
