Description:
[0001]     This application claims the priority of Russian Patent Application No. 2001120907, filed 27 Jul. 2001 and PCT/JP02/07388, filed 22 Jul. 2002 the disclosure of which is expressly incorporated by reference herein, respectively. 
     
    
     FIELD OF THE INVENTION  
       [0002]     This invention relates to insulating films to be used in electronic and electric fields, manufacturing method thereof, and semiconductor device using thereof.  
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION  
       [0003]     With the development of high-density integration of semiconductor integrated circuits, the size of features such as wiring lines and space between features has been greatly reduced. As a result, line-to-line parasitic capacitances have become greater and affected the operation speeds of the semiconductor integrated circuits. Various suggestions have been made to solve this problem. One such suggestions is to use a poly-paraxylylene film of a low dielectric constant as the wiring insulating film.  
         [0004]     For example, a poly-paraxylylene film is prepared by subliming 2,2-paracyclophane at 120° C., pyrolyzing the resulting product into the intermediate of paraxylylene at 650° C., polymerizing the intermediate at 20° C. in a polymerization tank, and depositing the resulting polymer on a substrate.  
         [0005]      FIG. 1  shows an example of a manufacturing method for a semiconductor device which uses poly-paraxylylene as an insulating layer. This method produces a semiconductor device having multiple wiring layers by the processes of forming a first aluminum wiring layer  11  on a semiconductor substrate  10 , forming an insulating film  12  of poly-paraxylylene prepared by the above method on the aluminum wiring layer  11  of the semiconductor substrate (Process “a”), forming a silicon oxide layer  13  over the above layer by a chemical vapor-phase growth process (Process “b”), grinding the silicon oxide layer  13  by a chemical machine grinding method and forming via-holes in the layer  12  that are filled with tungsten  14  (Process “c”), forming a second aluminum wiring layer  15  on the ground layer  13  (Process “d”), and repeating these processes (a) to (d).  
         [0006]     The above method can provide a substrate having multiple wiring layers, that is, a semiconductor device having semiconductor elements on the substrate.  
         [0007]     In production of semiconductor devices, heat-treating processes can be added to the above processes. Such processes include a heat-treating process at about 400° C. during formation of a silicon oxide layer and a tungsten layer and a heat-treating process of 1 hour at 400° C. in an air atmosphere during formation of a resistance layer which is required for production of multiple wiring layers. Therefore, the insulating film material is preferably a material that does not generate degradable gases when heated for one hour at 400° C. in an air atmosphere.  
         [0008]     The physical properties of the above paraxylylene film degrade when heat-treated at 400° C. As a result, the above paraxylylene film cannot be used as an insulating film for semiconductor integrated circuits that require downsizing of wires and wire pitches.  
         [0009]     Reducing the dielectric constant is desirable for insulating films of semiconductor devices. Insulating materials having specific inductive capacity of 2.5 or less have been desired.  
         [0010]     MACROMOLECULES 1999, 32, 7555-7561 discloses an organic polymer film having of a low specific inductive capacity of 2.3 and excellent heat resistance. The film is prepared by subliming 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-cyclophane at 70 to 100° C. at a vacuum pressure, pyrolyzing thereof at 650° C., and depositing the resulting polymer onto a cool substrate. However, a film obtained by pyrolyzation at 650° C. contains many components that become volatile at 250 to 400° C. (Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc., 1997, Vol. 443, 21-33 and Mat. Res. Soc. Symp. Proc., 1997, Vol. 476, 213-218). As a result, these material components cannot be completely removed from the film even when the film is heat-treated at 400° C. after formation. No heat-treatment for formation of a resistance layer in an air atmosphere has been disclosed, although some heat-treatments in a gas atmosphere have been described.  
       SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION  
       [0011]     An object of this invention is to provide an organic polymer film of low dielectric constant and high heating resistance which is applicable as an insulating layer for semiconductor devices. Additional objects include a manufacturing method for such organic polymer films, and a semiconductor device using such films.  
         [0012]     These and other objects and advantages are achieved by an organic polymer film having a specific inductive capacity of 2.5 or less and a weight loss ratio of 0.05% or less by weight after one-hour heating in an air or inactive gas atmosphere at 400° C.  
         [0013]     In another embodiment, the invention provides an organic polymer film having a specific inductive capacity of 2.0 to 2.5 or less and a weight loss ratio of 0.05% or less by weight after one-hour heating in an air or inactive gas atmosphere at 400° C.  
         [0014]     This invention also provides a method for forming an organic polymer film containing fluorinated poly-paraxylylene prepared by subliming a cyclophane compound containing fluorine atoms, pyrolyzing the product of sublimation into paraxylylene monomer, and polymerizing said paraxylylene monomer.  
         [0015]     In another embodiment, an organic polymer film containing fluorinated poly-paraxylylene is prepared by subliming 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-cyclophane as a cyclophane compound containing fluorine atoms in the sublimation zone, pyrolyzing the product of sublimation into paraxylylene monomer in the pyrolysis zone, polymerizing paraxylylene monomer into poly-paraxylylene in the polymerization zone, and depositing the poly-paraxylylene on a substrate.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION  
       [0035]     This invention can provide an organic polymer film having a specific inductive capacity of 2.5 or less and a weight loss rate of 0.05% or less by weight after heating one hour at 400° C. in an air or inactive gas atmosphere. This is provided by selecting a pyrolysis temperature in the range of 680 to 770° C. and more preferably 700 to 750° C. in formation of a polymer film (which is obtained by gas-phase polymerization of a cyclophane compound containing fluorine atoms such as 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-cyclophane or 4,5,7,8,12,13,15,16-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane) and by heating the resulting fluorinated poly-paraxylylene alternately to increase the temperature and to maintain the temperature in a stepwise manner, wherein the final increasing step of the stepwise heating increases the temperature to 390 to 410° C.  
         [0036]     For efficient pyrolysis of a cyclophane compound containing fluorine atoms such as 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-cyclophane (dimer) into monomer, a pyrolysis temperature of this invention should preferably be in the range of 680 to 770° C. and more preferably 700 to 750° C. If the pyrolysis temperature is below 680° C., the pyrolysis from dimer to monomer is insufficient and consequently, the fluorinated poly-paraxylylene cannot have the expected specific inductive capacity and heat resistance. On the other hand, when the pyrolysis temperature is above 770° C., the resulting monomer is further pyrolyzed in to unwanted by-products that reduce the heat resistance of fluorinated poly-paraxylylene. In other words, the by-products contain a lot of ingredients that are volatile at 250 to 400° C. These by-products cannot be removed even when a formed film is heat-treated at 400° C.  
         [0037]     To obtain an organic polymer film having a weight loss ratio of 0.05% by weight after one-hour heating at 400° C., the above polymerization reactions are performed under a reduced pressure of 0.001 to 0.1 mmHg. It is preferable to sublime 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-cyclophane at 30 to 70° C. and polymerize at −40 to +20° C. Further it is preferable to add a process of heating the formed film alternately to increase the temperature and to maintain the temperature in a stepwise manner, wherein the final increasing step of the stepwise heating increases the temperature to 390 to 410° C.  
         [0038]     This heat treatment can be done in the presence of air but the stepwise heating condition is dependent upon the atmosphere. The heat-treatment in a vacuum pressure of 0.001 to 0.1 mmHg should preferably comprise a first step of heating up to 170 to 220° C. at a maximum rate of 5° C./minute, a second step of heating for at least 10 minutes to maintain the temperature, a third step of heating up to 350 to 390° C. at a maximum rate of 1° C./minute, a fourth step of heating for at least 30 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range, a fifth step of heating up to 390 to 410° C. at a maximum rate of 0.5° C./minute, and a sixth step of heating for at least 30 minutes at 390 to 41° C. More preferably, the heat-treatment should comprise a first step of heating up to 190 to 210° C. at a maximum rate of 5° C./minute, a second step of heating for at least 30 minutes to maintain the temperature, a third step of heating up to 370 to 380° C. at a maximum rate of 1° C./minute, a fourth step of heating for at least 60 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range, a fifth step of heating up to 390 to 410° C. at a maximum rate of 0.5° C./minute, and a sixth step of heating for at least 60 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range.  
         [0039]     In an air atmosphere, the heat-treatment should comprise a first step of heating up to 170 to 220° C. at a maximum rate of 10° C./minute, a second step of heating for at least 10 minutes to maintain the temperature, a third step of heating up to 350 to 390° C. at a maximum rate of 3° C./minute, a fourth step of heating for at least 15 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range, a fifth step of heating up to 390 to 410° C. at a maximum rate of 1° C./minute, and a sixth step of heating for at least 15 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range. Further preferably, the heat-treatment should comprise a first step of heating up to 190 to 210° C. at a maximum rate of 10° C./minute, a second step of heating for at least 15 minutes to maintain the temperature, a third step of heating up to 370 to 380° C. at a maximum rate of 3° C./minute, a fourth step of heating for at least 30 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range, a fifth step of heating up to 390 to 410° C. at a maximum rate of 1° C./minute, and a sixth step of heating for at least 30 minutes to maintain the temperature in this range.  
         [0040]     In this invention, we measured the quantity which is lost by heating by Mettler TA-300 (manufactured by Mettler Co.) and processed its data by Solaris operating system (software). The measurement comprises the steps of placing a roll of the film of 10 to 16 mg in a ceramic TG pan, heating it up to 400° C. at a rate of 10° C./minute, keeping it at 400° C. for 1 to 3 hours, and repeated these steps both in the air and nitrogen atmospheres.  
         [0041]     This invention will be described in further detail by way of embodiments.  
       Embodiment 1  
       [0042]     Referring to  FIG. 2 , embodiments of this invention will be explained below.  
         [0043]     We took the steps of putting 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane  7  which is a cyclophane compound containing fluorine atoms in a crucible furnace  2  in the sublimation zone of  FIG. 2 ( a ), subliming thereof at 30 to 70° C. into dimer (vapor) under reduced pressure of 0.005 mmHg or higher, heating the crucible furnace  2  at 60° C., sending the dimer 7 to the pyrolyzation zone  3 , pyrolyzing thereof into monomer  8  (high-active α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene intermediate) at 750° C., polymerizing and depositing the high-active intermediate  8  on a 50 mm-diameter glass disk  4  which is cooled at −10° C. in the polymerization zone  5 . The rate of deposition was 0.27 μm/minute. Here, we obtained a 35 μm-thick organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene  9 . We further took the steps of returning the pressure of the chamber to the ordinary pressure, putting the film in a glass ampule, evacuating the ampule down to 0.005 mmHg, heat-treating the film in the ampule according to the heat-treatment program of  FIG. 2 ( b ) (alternate and stepwise heating to increase the temperature and to keep the temperature) and finally heat-treating thereof at 400° C.  
         [0044]     The obtained fluorinated poly-paraxylylene film has a weight loss ratio of 0% after 3-hour heating at 400° C. in the nitrogen atmosphere and a weight loss ratio of 0% after 1-hour heating at 400° C. in the air atmosphere. (The accuracy of measurement of the instrument is 0.05%.)  
         [0045]     The final film has a density of 1.62 g/cm 3 , a specific inductive capacity of 2.20 (at 1 MHz), and a dielectric dissipation factor of 0.001 or less.

       [0046]     We put 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane  7  in a crucible furnace  2  in a chamber under a reduced pressure of 0.005 mmHg or higher. We heated the crucible furnace  2  up to 70° C. to sublime 1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane  7  and moved the sublimation gas from the sublimation zone to the pyrolysis zone. In the pyrolysis zone, the sublimation gas was pyrolyzed into high-active α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene intermediate  8  at 700° C. Then we polymerized and deposited this high reactive intermediate  8  on a 50 mm-diameter glass disk  4  which is kept at −1° C. in the polymerization zone  5 . The rate of deposition was 0.26 μm/minute. Here, we obtained a 30 μm-thick organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene.  
         [0047]     We further took the steps of returning the pressure of the chamber to the ordinary pressure, putting the film in a glass ampule, evacuating the ampule down to 0.005 mmHg, heat-treating the film in the ampule up to 200° C. at a rate of 5° C./minute, keeping thereof at 200° C. for 40 minutes, heating thereof up to 380° C. at a rate of 1° C./minute, keeping thereof at 380° C. for 60 minutes, heating thereof up to 400° C. at a rate of 0.5° C./minute, and keeping thereof at 400° C. for 60 minutes.  
         [0048]     The obtained film has a density of 1.62 g/cm 3 , a specific inductive capacity of 2.20 (at 1 MHz), and a dielectric dissipation factor of 0.001 or less.  
         [0049]     The film has a weight loss ratio of 0% after 3-hour heating at 400° C. in the nitrogen atmosphere and a weight loss ratio of 0% after 1-hour heating at 400° C. in the air atmosphere. (The accuracy of measurement of the instrument is 0.05%.).  
       Embodiment 3  
       [0050]     We put 1,1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane in a crucible furnace in a chamber under a reduced pressure of 0.005 mmHg or higher. We heated the crucible furnace up to 60° C. to sublime 1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane and moved the sublimation gas from the sublimation zone to the pyrolysis zone. In the pyrolysis zone, the sublimation gas was pyrolyzed into high-active α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene intermediate at 730° C. Then we polymerized and deposited this high reactive intermediate on a 100 mm-diameter silicon wafer which is kept at −15° C. in the polymerization zone. The rate of deposition was 0.29 μm/minute. Here, we obtained a 10 μm-thick organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene.  
         [0051]     We further took the steps of returning the pressure of the chamber to the ordinary pressure, putting the silicon wafer in a vacuum heating furnace, evacuating the chamber down to 0.005 mmHg, heat-treating the silicon wafer up to 200° C. at a rate of 5° C./minute, keeping thereof at 200° C. for 30 minutes, heating thereof up to 380° C. at a rate of 1° C./minute, keeping thereof at 380° C. for 60 minutes, heating thereof up to 400° C. at a rate of 0.5° C./minute, and keeping thereof at 400° C. for 60 minutes.  
         [0052]     The obtained film has a specific inductive capacity of 2.20 (at 1 MHz), and a dielectric dissipation factor of 0.001 or less.  
         [0053]     The film has a weight loss ratio of 0% after 3-hour heating at 400° C. in the nitrogen atmosphere and a weight loss ratio of 0% after 1-hour heating at 400° C. in the air atmosphere. (The accuracy of measurement of the instrument is 0.05%.)  
       Embodiment 4  
       [0054]     Referring to  FIG. 2 , a semiconductor device of this invention will be explained below.  
         [0055]     We prepared a semiconductor device having multi-layer wirings by repeating a set of: 
        Step “a” of forming a first aluminum wiring  11  on a semiconductor substrate  10 , and forming an organic polymer layer  12  of poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene on the aluminum wiring  11  in the same preparation method as Embodiment 3,     Step “b” of heating the formed film for 30 minutes at 400° C. under reduced pressure of 0.005 mg, and forming a silicon oxide layer  13  over the above layer by a chemical vapor-phase growth at 400° C.,     Step “c” of grinding the silicon oxide layer  13  by a chemical machine grinding method and forming via-holes in the layer with tungsten  14 , and     Step “d” forming a second aluminum wiring  15  thereon.        
 
         [0060]     This organic polymer film of the semiconductor device has a specific inductive capacity of 2.2 and thus enables reduction of the line-to-line parasitic capacitances. Accordingly, this invention can accomplish a semiconductor device of fast signal transmission and high reliability.

       [0061]     Referring to  FIG. 3 , a multiple layer wiring substrate of this invention will be explained below.  
         [0062]     We prepared a substrate having multiple aluminum wiring layers by repeating a set of: 
        Step “a” of forming a first aluminum wiring  11  on a semiconductor substrate  10 , and forming an organic polymer layer  12  containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene on the aluminum wiring  11  in the same preparation method as Embodiment 3,     Step “b” of heating the formed film for 30 minutes at 400° C. under reduced pressure of 0.005 mg, and forming a silicon oxide layer  13  over the above layer by a chemical vapor-phase growth,     Step “c” of grinding the silicon oxide layer  13  by a chemical machine grinding method and forming via-holes in the layer with tungsten  17 ,     Step “d” of forming a 0.3 μm-thick resistance element film  16  of Cr—SiO 2  (Cr:SiO 2 =66:34 (% by weight)) by spattering, heat-treating the film at 400° C. for 2 hours in the air atmosphere to make the resistance stable, and forming a 0.4 μm-thick second aluminum layer  15  on the resistance element film, and     Step “e” of applying a light-sensitive layer (OFPR resist fabricated by Tokyo Ohka Kogyo Co., Ltd.) to the aluminum layer  17 , exposing the light-sensitive layer to a resist pattern light, developing the pattern on the aluminum layer with the NMD-3 developer (fabricated by Tokyo Ohka Kogyo Co., Ltd.) (Process 8), etching the pattern-masked aluminum layer with a preset etching solution (phosphoric acid:nitric acid:acetic acid:water=78:2:15:5 by volume), thus forming a second aluminum wiring layer, next etching the resistance element layer with a preset etching solution (aqueous solution of 7.5 mol/l of hydrogen fluoride, 2.4 mol/l of hydrochloric acid, 0.51 mol/l of phosphoric acid, and 3.74 mol/l ammonium fluoride), and thus forming a Cr—SiO 2  wiring layer  16 .        
 
         [0068]     The organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene of this multiple layer wiring substrate has a specific inductive capacity of 2.2, which enables reduction of the line-to-line parasitic capacity.  
         [0069]     In this embodiment, the Cr—SiO 2  wires  16  are formed as thin-film resistance elements for end resistances. The resistance of each Cr—SiO 2  wire is 60±3 ohms, which indicates that the resistance element is highly reliable.  
         [0070]     Accordingly, a semiconductor device comprising an organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene as an insulating film and a Cr—SiO 2  wiring layer as a thin film resistance element for end resistances can speed up signal transmission and assure high reliability.  
       COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 1  
       [0071]     We prepared a 35 μm-thick organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene in the same method as Embodiment 1 except that 1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane was pyrolized at 650° C.  
         [0072]     We returned the pressure of the chamber to the ordinary pressure, removed the film from the glass disk, put the film in a glass ampule, and evacuated the ampule down to 0.005 mmHg. Then we heat-treated the film in the ampule by heating it up to 400° C. at a rate of 4° C./minute and heating for 60 minutes to keep it at 400° C.  
         [0073]     The final film has a density of 1.62 g/cm 3 , a specific inductive capacity of 2.20 (at 1 MHz), and a dielectric dissipation factor of 0.001 or less.  
         [0074]     The film has a weight loss ratio of 0.15% after 3-hour heating at 400° C. in the nitrogen atmosphere and a weight loss ratio of 0.2% after 1-hour heating at 400° C. in the air atmosphere. (The accuracy of measurement of the instrument is 0.05%.)  
       COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 2  
       [0075]     We prepared a 35 μm-thick organic polymer film containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene in the same method as Embodiment 1 except that dimer 1,2,2,9,9,10,10-octafluoro-2,2-paracyclophane which is the raw material of poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene was pyrolized at 850° C.  
         [0076]     We returned the pressure of the chamber to the ordinary pressure, removed the film from the glass disk, put the film in a glass ampule, and evacuated the ampule down to 0.005 mmHg. Then we heat-treated the film in the ampule by heating it up to 400° C. at a rate of 4° C./minute and heating for 60 minutes to keep it at 400° C.  
         [0077]     The final film has a density of 1.50 g/cm 3 , a specific inductive capacity of 2.15 (at 1 MHz), and a dielectric dissipation factor of 0.001 or less.  
         [0078]     The film has a weight loss ratio of 0.3% after 3-hour heating at 400° C. in the nitrogen atmosphere and a weight loss ratio of 0.35% after 1-hour heating at 400° C. in the air atmosphere. (The accuracy of measurement of the instrument is 0.05%.)  
       COMPARATIVE EXAMPLE 3  
       [0079]     We formed a first aluminum wiring layer  11  on a semiconductor  10  and an organic polymer layer  12  containing poly-α,α,α′,α′-tetrafluoro-paraxylylene on this aluminum layer in the same method as Comparative example 2. Then we took processes of heat-treating thereof at 400° C. for 30 minutes under reduced pressure of 0.005 mmHg, forming a silicon oxide layer  13  by a chemical vapor-phase growth at 400° C., grinding the silicon oxide layer  13  by a chemical machine grinding method, forming via-holes with tungsten  14 , and forming a second aluminum wiring layer  15 .  
         [0080]     However, no more processes were carried out because swells and separations due to outgassing were found on the boundary between the organic polymer layer  12  and the silicone oxide layer  13 .
