摘要
探讨PA工艺因介电层高低差发生金属线路内部断裂的改善方案。以不同光刻条件和刻蚀条件为基础,对介电层(Si3N4)进行ICP刻蚀。研究表明,增加曝光焦距,刻蚀完的侧壁倾斜角改变不大;而光刻胶对氮化硅的刻蚀选择比越高,刻蚀完氮化硅侧壁斜角变化越大。当光刻胶对氮化硅的刻蚀选择比为2.4时,刻蚀完氮化硅的侧壁斜角可控制在45°~65°。
This paper is a mechanism discussion of improvement solution for metal circuit cracking which caused by the difference height of dielectric layer in PA process. The dielectric layer(Si3 N4)ICP etching is base on different lithography and etching conditions. The result shows that increasing the exposure focus, the variation of bevel angle is almost unchanged after etched; but the raise huge changing under the high selectivity ratio of photoresist to silicon nitride, when the etching selectivity ratio of photo resist to silicon nitride is 2.4, the silicon nitride profile angle can be controlled in 45°~ 65°.
