摘要:
Disclosed are methods for forming a silicon oxide layer of a semiconductor device capable of insulating between fine conductive patterns without causing a process failure, and for forming a wiring having the silicon oxide layer. After forming conductive patterns on a semiconductor substrate, an anti-oxidation layer is sequentially formed on the conductive patterns and on the semiconductor substrate. The anti-oxidation layer prevents an oxidant from penetrating into the conductive patterns and the semiconductor substrate. A reflowable oxide layer is formed by coating a reflowable oxidizing material on the anti-oxidation layer while burying the conductive patterns. The silicon oxide layer is formed by thermally treating the reflowable oxide layer. Then, the silicon oxide layer filled between conductive patterns and the anti-oxidation layer exposed to the semiconductor substrate are etched so as to form a contact hole, thereby forming the wiring of the semiconductor device. Thus, a planar silicon oxide layer is formed between conductive patterns having a fine interval therebetween without creating a void. In addition, a metal layer pattern, which acts as a conductor in the conductive patterns, can be prevented from being oxidized when the silicon oxide layer is formed.

摘要:
In a method for forming an interlayer dielectric film, an insulating film is deposited on a semiconductor substrate that has a metal wiring pattern. The insulating film is polished by CMP until exposing an upper portion of the wiring pattern. A spin on glass composition, which includes polysilazane, is coated over the polished insulating material and exposed portions of the wiring pattern to form a film. The film is then pre-baked in a temperature range of 50 to 350° C., and then hard-baked in a temperature range of 300 to 500° C. After the hard-baking, the film is then heat-treated in an oxidation atmosphere. With the hard-baking, gasses of the coating of film may be removed so that the amount of gas generated during a subsequent anneal or heat-treating process may be reduced. Accordingly, particle contaminants may be reduced by such process in addition to providing a means for reduced risk of crack formation.

The method of the invention further includes planarizing the insulation layer between the hard bake process and the annealing step. Also, the hard bake process can be omitted.
