Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the three-dimensional memory process, the effective storage area of ​​the stepped structure is on the order of millimeters, but after photolithography and etching processes, the critical dimension of the effective storage area of ​​the stepped structure will be reduced by several hundred nanometers. Setting monitoring reference marks to monitor the critical dimensions of the effective storage area of ​​the ladder structure, but it is still difficult to accurately monitor the critical dimensions of the nanometer scale

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a monitoring reference mark forming method, a monitoring reference mark and a three-dimensional memory, and the method is applied to a forming process of thethree-dimensional memory and comprises the steps: providing a semi-finished semiconductor which comprises a substrate and a laminated structure deposited on the substrate; forming a monitoring reference mark at a specific position of the top of the laminated structure through a forming process of a top selection gate trench of the three-dimensional memory, wherein the monitoring reference mark isembedded in the top of the laminated structure; and etching the top of the laminated structure containing the monitoring reference mark through a forming process of the stepped structure of the three-dimensional memory, so that the monitoring reference mark protrudes out of the top of the laminated structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to but are not limited to the field of semiconductors, and in particular relate to a method for forming a monitoring reference mark, a monitoring reference mark, and a three-dimensional memory. Background technique [0002] In the three-dimensional memory process, the effective storage area of ​​the stepped structure is on the order of millimeters, but after photolithography and etching processes, the critical dimension of the effective storage area of ​​the stepped structure will be reduced by several hundred nanometers. Setting monitoring reference marks to monitor the critical dimension of the effective storage area of ​​the ladder structure, but it is still difficult to accurately monitor the critical dimension of the nanometer scale. Since the size of the contact point of the ladder structure is nanoscale and needs to be formed based on an accurate ladder structure, the change of the critical dimen...
