Direction of silicon technology from past to future 硅技术从过去到未来的发展方向
H. Iwai
Recently, information technology (IT) such as Internet, i-mode, cellular phones, and car navigation has spread very rapidly all over the world. It is expected to dramatically raise the efficiency of our society and greatly improve the quality of life. It should be noted that the progress of IT is entirely owed to that of semiconductor technology, especially silicon LSIs. Silicon LSIs provide high speed/frequency operation of a tremendous number of functions with low cost, low power, small size, small weight, and high reliability. In the last 30 years, MOSFET gate length has reduced by 100 times, DRAM density has increased 500,000 times, and MPU clock frequency has increased 2,500 times. Without such marvellous progress in LSI technologies, current successes in information technology would not be realized at all. In this paper, silicon technology from past to future is reviewed for advanced CMOS LSIs.
最近,互联网、i-mode、手机、汽车导航等信息技术(IT)在世界范围内迅速普及。它有望极大地提高我们社会的效率,极大地改善生活质量。应该指出的是,It的进步完全归功于半导体技术的进步,特别是硅lsi。硅lsi以低成本、低功耗、小尺寸、小重量和高可靠性提供大量功能的高速/频率操作。在过去的30年里,MOSFET栅极长度减少了100倍,DRAM密度增加了50万倍,MPU时钟频率增加了2500倍。如果没有大规模集成电路技术的如此惊人的进步,信息技术就根本不可能取得今天的成功。本文对先进CMOS lsi的硅技术从过去到未来进行了综述。

Failure analysis from the back side of a die 从模具背面进行失效分析
S. Liebert
Reproducible back side sample preparation and failure analysis methods becomes increasingly important due to the increasing number of metal levels within semiconductor devices and the ongoing transition to new packages like flip-chip or lead-on-chip. Defects are often located in the lowest chip levels, which make front side electrical defect localization very difficult. Otherwise electrical defect localization in flip-chip and lead-on-chip devices is only possible from the die back side. We developed a failure analysis flow for these die types which contains back side and front side failure analysis methods, consisting of back side photoemission microscopy after bulk Si thinning and electrical recontacting of the die for electrical defect localization. From the type of stress test, test results and fault location, the defect type can often be deduced. With junction leakage, latch up or Al spiking, the die should be prepared for front side analysis, since during further back side preparation, the whole die active area is removed. Gate oxide defects, particles and interrupted conductive interconnects can be analyzed from both the front and back sides of the die. Due to die fragility after bulk Si thinning for electrical defect localization, defect preparation becomes much easier from the back side. After bulk Si removal, optical inspection is possible. Particles or, for example, damage caused by electrostatic overstress might be visible. Gate oxide defects are analyzable by SEM and interrupted conductive interconnects are detectable using passive voltage contrast or electrical probing with AFM.
由于半导体器件中金属含量的增加以及向倒装芯片或片上导联等新封装的持续过渡,可重复的背面样品制备和失效分析方法变得越来越重要。缺陷通常位于芯片的最底层,这使得前端电缺陷定位非常困难。否则,倒装芯片和片上导联器件中的电气缺陷定位只能从芯片背面进行。我们为这些类型的模具开发了一套失效分析流程,其中包括背面和正面失效分析方法,包括体硅减薄后的背面光电显微镜和用于电缺陷定位的模具电重接触。根据应力测试的类型、测试结果和故障位置,通常可以推断出缺陷的类型。与结泄漏,闩锁或铝尖峰,模具应准备正面分析,因为在进一步的背面准备,整个模具的活动区域被移除。栅极氧化缺陷,颗粒和中断的导电互连可以从模具的正面和背面分析。由于体硅减薄用于电缺陷定位后的模具易碎性,从背面制备缺陷变得容易得多。去除大量硅后,可以进行光学检查。颗粒或例如静电过度应力造成的损坏可能是可见的。栅极氧化物缺陷可以用扫描电镜分析,中断的导电互连可以用无源电压对比或原子力显微镜电探针检测。

Impact of ESD-induced soft drain junction damage on CMOS product lifetime 静电致软漏极损伤对CMOS产品寿命的影响
J. Reiner, T. Keller, H. Jaggi, S. Mira
The impact of ESD-induced soft drain junction damage on product lifetime was investigated. Several thousand input-output (I/O) pads of a 0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS IC were stressed by ESD (electrostatic discharge) and subsequently subjected to bakes, ESD re-stress and high temperature operating life tests. While the ESD-induced soft drain junction damage appears to be stable versus temperature stress and ESD re-stress, it results in early failures during accelerated operating life tests. These life test failures are caused by breakdown of the gate oxide which was left unbroken during the ESD stress that caused the ESD-induced soft drain junction damage. Thus, ESD-induced soft drain junction damage might cause a reliability risk (latent ESD failure). Consequently, it needs to be avoided by assuring sufficient robustness of the IC against this ESD damage mechanism. A leakage current criterion of 1 /spl mu/A is rather large to detect this kind of damage after ESD stress.
研究了静电致软漏结损伤对产品寿命的影响。对0.35 /spl mu/m CMOS IC的数千个输入输出(I/O)焊盘进行ESD(静电放电)应力,随后进行烘烤、ESD再应力和高温工作寿命测试。虽然在温度应力和ESD再应力下,ESD引起的软漏极损伤似乎是稳定的,但在加速工作寿命测试中,它会导致早期失效。这些寿命测试故障是由于在ESD应力期间栅极氧化物击穿而导致的,而在ESD应力期间栅极氧化物未被击穿,从而导致ESD诱导的软漏接损坏。因此,ESD引起的软漏接损坏可能会导致可靠性风险(潜在的ESD故障)。因此,需要通过确保IC对这种ESD损伤机制的足够鲁棒性来避免这种情况。用1 /spl mu/A的漏电流判据来检测这种ESD应力后的损伤是比较大的。

Generation of hole traps in silicon dioxides 二氧化硅中空穴阱的产生
J.F. Zhang, H. K. Sii, G. Groeseneken, R. Degraeve
Oxide breakdown is a potential showstopper for future CMOS technology. Defect generation is responsible for the breakdown. Previous work (Degraeve et al., 2000; Stathis and DiMaria, 1999; Zhang et al, 1992) was focused on electron trap generation, while little information is available on hole trap generation. This paper unambiguously shows that a significant amount of hole traps can be created.

Investigation of hot-carrier induced interface damages via small-signal characteristics of drain-to-substrate gated-diode 基于漏极-衬底栅极二极管小信号特性的热载子界面损伤研究
M. Lau, C.T. Hsu, Y. Yeow
The DC gated-diode current measurement has been used extensively to study hot-carrier induced degradation in MOSFETs. This technique relies on the property of interface states acting as effective recombination centres to detect their presence. According to Shockley-Read-Hall recombination theory (Muller and Kamins, 1986), gated-diode generation/recombination current is mainly contributed by states close to the midgap. This paper presents a study of the small-signal characteristics of the drain-to-substrate junction of an n-channel MOSFET configured as a gated diode to study hot-carrier induced degradation. This small-signal admittance consists of the small-signal drain-to-substrate capacitance and conductance (C/sub db/ and G/sub db/). Similar to DC gated diode characterisation, the small signal admittance uses the change in the space charge region of the gated-diode to detect the presence and the spatial distribution of hot-carrier induced interface and trapped charges. G/sub db/ is sensitive to change in midgap interface states acting as recombination centres as well as any change in bulk recombination due to change in the volume of the spatial charge region. It corresponds to the slope of the DC diode I-V characteristics of the junction. Change in C/sub db/ reflects the width of the diode space charge region. Therefore, the information obtained from the analysis of C/sub db/ and G/sub db/ before and after electrical stressing are complementary to each other. We compare experimental results for C/sub db/ and G/sub db/ to show the applicability of this method to characterize hot carrier stress response of submicron MOSFETs.
直流栅极二极管电流测量已被广泛用于研究mosfet中热载子诱发的退化。该技术依靠界面态作为有效复合中心的特性来检测它们的存在。根据Shockley-Read-Hall复合理论(Muller and Kamins, 1986),门极二极管的产生/复合电流主要由靠近中隙的状态贡献。本文研究了作为门控二极管的n沟道MOSFET的漏极-衬底结的小信号特性,以研究热载子诱导的退化。这个小信号导纳由小信号漏极到衬底的电容和电导(C/sub db/和G/sub db/)组成。与直流门控二极管的特性类似,小信号导纳利用门控二极管空间电荷区的变化来检测热载子诱导界面和捕获电荷的存在和空间分布。G/sub db/对作为复合中心的中隙界面态的变化以及由于空间电荷区体积的变化而引起的体复合的任何变化都很敏感。它对应于直流二极管结的I-V特性的斜率。C/sub / db/的变化反映了二极管空间电荷区的宽度。因此,电应力前后C/sub db/和G/sub db/分析得到的信息是相辅相成的。我们比较了C/sub db/和G/sub db/的实验结果,证明了该方法对表征亚微米mosfet热载流子应力响应的适用性。

High resistance via induced by marginal barrier metal step coverage and F diffusion 由于边缘障碍金属台阶覆盖和F扩散引起的高电阻
J. Y. Dai, S. K. Loh, S. F. Tee, C. L. Tay, S. Ansari, E. Er, S. Redkar
In submicron multilevel metallization CMOS devices, high resistance vias and open via contacts are a common issue that can cause low yield and reliability problems (Islamraja et al., 1992). Via failure modes such as contaminated via, delaminated via and blown via contacts have been well documented (Hamanaka et al., 1994; Chen et al., 1995). Compared to the open via contact, a high resistance via due to insufficient process margin is more difficult to isolate and physically characterize. It has been reported that F contamination induces resistance variations and leads to timing issues in the SRAM (Perungulam et al., 2000). However, understanding of the F diffusion mechanism through the Ti-TiN barrier metal layer and the correlation with the barrier metal properties and thus the failure mechanism during reliability testing is still limited. In this paper, the failure mechanism of high via resistance caused by F diffusion was studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) at different process split steps. Properties of different barrier metal layers by different processes are also discussed.
在亚微米多层金属化CMOS器件中,高电阻过孔和开孔触点是一个常见的问题,可能导致低产量和可靠性问题(Islamraja等人,1992)。经孔失效模式,如污染经孔、分层经孔和吹过的经孔触点已被详细记录(Hamanaka等人,1994;Chen et al., 1995)。与开孔接触相比,由于工艺裕度不足而导致的高电阻通孔更难隔离和物理表征。据报道,F污染会引起SRAM的阻力变化并导致定时问题(Perungulam et al., 2000)。然而,对于F通过Ti-TiN势垒金属层的扩散机制以及与势垒金属性能的关系以及可靠性测试中的失效机制的理解仍然有限。本文利用透射电镜研究了不同工艺分离步骤下F扩散引起的高通孔电阻失效机理。讨论了不同工艺制备的不同阻挡层的性能。

Novel diode structures and ESD protection circuits in a 1.8-V 0.15-/spl mu/m partially-depleted SOI salicided CMOS process 1.8 v 0.15-/spl mu/m部分耗尽SOI盐化CMOS工艺中的新型二极管结构和ESD保护电路

Due to the low thermal conductivity of the buried oxide underneath the thin-film silicon layer and the shallow-trench-isolation (STI) structure on the insulating layer, electrostatic discharge (ESD) robustness of CMOS devices in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS technology has become a major reliability challenge (Chan et al., 1994; Raha et al., 1999; Smith, 1998). As SOI technology continues to be scaled down, the thickness of the top layer silicon film is decreased, and the junction area for ESD protection devices to discharge ESD current becomes smaller. Therefore, the ability to dissipate the heat generated by ESD events in SOI CMOS ICs is seriously degraded. In this paper, two novel diode structures with effective larger p-n junction area for better heat dissipation in partially-depleted SOI CMOS technology are proposed. The I-V characteristics and ESD robustness of these new diodes are investigated and compared to that of the Lubistor diode (Voldman et al., 1996).
由于薄膜硅层下埋藏氧化物的低导热性和绝缘层上的浅沟隔离(STI)结构,在绝缘体上硅(SOI) CMOS技术中CMOS器件的静电放电(ESD)稳健性已成为主要的可靠性挑战(Chan et al., 1994;Raha et al., 1999;史密斯,1998)。随着SOI技术的不断缩小,顶层硅膜的厚度减小,用于ESD保护器件放电ESD电流的结面积变小。因此,SOI CMOS ic中由ESD事件产生的热量的散热能力严重下降。在部分耗尽SOI CMOS技术中,提出了两种具有更大p-n结面积的新型二极管结构,以获得更好的散热效果。对这些新型二极管的I-V特性和ESD稳健性进行了研究,并与Lubistor二极管进行了比较(Voldman et al., 1996)。
