Abstract

The invention discloses a forming method of a silicon nitride film, comprising the steps: providing a substrate; depositing the silicon nitride film on the substrate, and processing the silicon nitride film by oxygen-containing gas. The invention also correspondingly discloses a forming method of an MIM capacitor by utilizing the forming method of the silicon nitride film. The silicon nitride filmformed by the method has less quantity of electric charge, so the evenness of the electrogenicity thickness and the physical thickness of the silicon nitride film are enhanced. The MIM capacitor formed by the method has the advantages that not only the electrical characteristics of puncturing voltages and leakage current, and the like are improved but also electricity evenness among components isenhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for forming a silicon nitride film and an MIM capacitor. Background technique [0002] The integrated circuit manufacturing process is a planar manufacturing process that combines photolithography, etching, deposition, ion implantation and other processes to form a large number of various types of complex devices on the same substrate and connect them to each other to have a complete electronic functions. Among them, capacitors are electronic components commonly used in integrated circuit technology, and can be widely used in circuits such as couplers, filters, and oscillators. [0003] Among existing integrated circuit capacitors, metal-insulator-metal (MIM, Metal-insulator-metal) capacitors have gradually become mainstream in radio frequency integrated circuits. The reason is that it is usually made in the metal interconnection layer, which is com...
