    • A dry etching method for a conductive material layer is disclosed. The dry etching method has the steps of: forming an oxygen-containing antireflection film on a surface of a conductive material layer; forming a patterned mask layer on the antireflection film; forming a sidewall protection film on a sidewall of the mask layer; and etching the conductive material layer using the mask layer having the sidewall protection film formed thereon. The sidewall protection film is formed after the antireflection film is patterned using the mask layer. The antireflection film is patterned after the sidewall protection film is formed, with the sidewall protection film left on the sidewall of the antireflection film. The sidewall protection film is formed by using at least one of sulfur based compound and sulfur nitride based compound. The antireflection film is composed of an SiON based material. The conductive material layer is composed of a material selected from the group consisting of a polycide film, an Al based alloy material layer, a Cu based alloy material layer and a refractory metal layer. The conductive material layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate having an insulating film formed on a surface thereof. The conductive material layer is formed on an insulating film having a barrier metal layer formed on a surface thereof.

    • A method of forming interconnectors involves the passivation (surface protective) of aluminum interconnector patterns and connection hole surfaces without objectionable particle level problems. Under electrical discharge disassociation conditions, sulphur (S) is liberated and permits the formation of an anti-corrosive polythiazyl in a plasma generated by using gaseous sulphur and nitrogen containing compounds. For example, in order to prevent the exposure of an aluminum interconnector material layer to atmospheric air after it has been resist masked and etched, plasma CVD is used with a gas containing a mixture of S.sub.2 F.sub.2 /H.sub.2 /N.sub.2, to form a protective film on the surfaces of the pattern. In this coated condition, after corrosion is prevented until such time as the next fabrication step which forms an interlayer insulation membrane is carried out. The protective film can be removed by heating the wafer to about 150.degree. C. at which time the protective film readily sublimes or decomposes. Other application come in that, after a natural oxide film is removed from a contact hole surface, until an upper interconnector is formed, the above mentioned protective film is temporarily formed over the exposed surfaces to prevent the reformation of the natural oxide film.
    • 形成互连器的方法涉及铝互连器图案和连接孔表面的钝化(表面保护),而没有不利的粒子水平问题。 在放电分解条件下,释放硫(S),并允许在通过使用气态含硫和含氮化合物产生的等离子体中形成抗腐蚀性的聚噻唑。 例如,为了防止铝绝缘体材料层在其被抗蚀剂掩模蚀刻之后暴露于大气中,等离子体CVD与含有S2F2 / H2 / N2混合物的气体一起使用以形成保护膜 图案的表面。 在这种涂覆状态下,防止腐蚀,直到进行形成层间绝缘膜的下一个制造步骤为止。 可以通过将晶片加热至约150℃来除去保护膜,此时保护膜容易升华或分解。 另外的应用是,在从接触孔表面除去自然氧化物膜之后,直到形成上部互连器,上述保护膜暂时形成在露出的表面上,以防止天然氧化物膜的重整。

    • A dry etching method whereby an SiO.sub.2 layer and an Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer may be etched with high selectivity for each other. As etching gas, such sulfur fluorides as S.sub.2 F.sub.2 are used which, when dissociated by electric discharges, will form SF.sub.x.sup.+ as a main etchant for the SiO.sub.2 layer or F* as a main etchant for the Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer and release sulfur in the plasma. When the SiO.sub.2 layer is etched on the Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 layer as an underlying layer via a resist mask, nitrogen atoms, removed from the underlying layer upon exposure thereof to the plasma, will combine with sulfur in the plasma to form on the exposed surface thereof such sulfur nitride compounds as polythiazyl (SN).sub.x, which will, in turn, serve to achieve high selectivity for the underlying layer. The SiO.sub.2 layer can also be etched via an Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask patterned into a predetermined shape, in which case sulfur nitride compounds formed on the Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 mask will serve to achieve high selectivity therefor.
    • 可以以高选择性彼此蚀刻SiO 2层和Si 3 N 4层的干蚀刻方法。 作为蚀刻气体,使用如S2F2这样的硫化氟,当通过放电解离时,其将形成SF x +作为SiO 2层或F *的主要蚀刻剂,作为Si 3 N 4层的主要蚀刻剂并释放等离子体中的硫。 当通过抗蚀剂掩模在Si 3 N 4层上作为下层蚀刻SiO 2层时,在暴露于等离子体时从底层去除的氮原子将与等离子体中的硫结合,以在暴露的表面上形成这样的硫 氮化物作为聚噻吩(SN)x,其又将用于实现对下层的高选择性。 也可以通过图案化为预定形状的Si 3 N 4掩模蚀刻SiO 2层,在这种情况下,形成在Si 3 N 4掩模上的硫化氮化合物将用于实现高选择性。

    • Disclosed is a dry etching method by which a polycide film consisting of a refractory metal silicide layer and a polysilicon layer are stacked one upon the other may be etched with high anisotropy, low pollution, high selectivity and high speed without using flon gases.According to the method of the present invention, an etching gas containing a fluorine base gas mixed at least with HBr is used for etching the polycide film for realizing anisotropic processing under sidewall protection by a reaction product of mainly the resist material and Br.Overetching for uniform processing in the wafer plane is performed with the use approximately solely of the fluorine base gas or HBr for realizing a high speed and improving substrate selectivity.The overetching step is preceded by oxygen plasma treatment for oxidizing the reaction product and intensifying side wall protective effects while improving anisotropy.Finally, the changes in the emission spectrum intensity during the etching are monitored for determining the end point of etching of the refractory metal silicide layer to enable more accurate setting of the etching conditions.
