Abstract

This invention provides a film deposition method to form film on a semiconductor wafer surface. The surface of the semiconductor wafer is divided into a first area covering the center of the semiconductor wafer and a second area covering the edge of the semiconductor wafer. There is a step height between the first area and the second area. An in situ inert gas plasma treatment step is carried out to form a temperature gradient between the first area and the second area on the semiconductor wafer and thus create a deposition rate gradient of precursor A between the first area and the second area. This can eliminate the poor uniformity issue of the deposited film surface resulting from the step height. After the completion of the inert gas plasma treatment step, a chemical vapor deposition process of the precursor A is performed onto the semiconductor wafer surface to deposit a film with a flat surface on the semiconductor wafer.

Description of the invention (1) Field of the invention The present invention provides a method of depositing a thin film on the surface of a semiconductor wafer 'to deposit a thin film with a good surface uniformity on the surface of the semiconductor wafer.

然而當利用PECVD法形成薄膜時,其厚度均句度 (thickness iinif〇rmit;y)極易受到溫度影響而產生誤 差,進而降低後續各項製程的良率,尤其當該薄膜係由具 較大分子之物質所構成時,此一影響更是特別明顯。針對 此一缺失’業界通常係利用調整氣體流量(gas n〇w rate)反應壓力及喷氣頭間距(sh〇werhea(j spacing)等 參數進行補償’以使所生成之薄膜具有較佳之厚度均勻 度。惟使用此種補償方式卻會改變薄膜的性質 (property)’導致產品功能受損,同時亦會縮限製程彈性 (process window)。隨著產品日益精密複雜,對於薄膜之 厚度均勻度的要求亦曰趨嚴格,因此,如何在不改變薄膜 性質的前提下’增進薄膜之厚度均勻度,實為一刻不容緩 的重要議題。However, when a PECVD method is used to form a thin film, its thickness thickness iiniform (y) is extremely susceptible to temperature and causes errors, thereby reducing the yield of subsequent processes, especially when the thin film This effect is particularly pronounced when composed of molecular matter. In response to this deficiency, 'the industry usually compensates by adjusting parameters such as gas flow rate (gas flow rate) reaction pressure and jet head spacing (showera (j spacing)') so that the resulting film has better thickness uniformity .However, the use of this compensation method will change the properties of the film, leading to the damage of the product's function and the shrinkage of the process window.
