Metal gate etch-back planarization technology
Metal gate etch-back planarization technology
摘要
Abstract
Planarization used in a gate-last CMOS device was successfully developed by particular technologies of SOG two-step plasma etch-back plus one special etch-back step for SOG/SiO2 interface trimming.The within-thewafer ILD thickness non-uniformity can reach 4.19% with a wafer edge exclusion of 5 mm.SEM results indicated that there was little “dish effect” on the 0.4 μm gate-stack structure and finally achieved a good planarization profile on the whole substrate.The technology provided a CMP-less process basis for sub-100 nm high-k/metal gate-last CMOS integration.关键词
