Problems solved by technology

However, in 3D PCM, the adhesion between the phase change material and the electrodes above and below the phase change material and the encapsulation layer is not good, which easily causes the diffusion of the phase change material along the sidewall interface of the electrode material and the composition change of the phase change material.

Abstract

The embodiment of the present application discloses a method for forming a semiconductor device and a semiconductor device, wherein the method includes: forming a semiconductor stack structure; selecting at least one layer of the semiconductor stack structure as a layer to be processed, and , etching the layer to be treated to form first etching gaps and first phase change structures alternately arranged along the second direction, the surface of the first phase change structure has a first roughness, so The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction; roughening treatment is performed on the surface of each of the first phase change structures, so that the treated surface of the first phase change structure has a second roughness, and The second roughness is greater than the first roughness; a first encapsulation layer is deposited around the processed first phase change structure to form the semiconductor device.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present application relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and relates to but not limited to a method for forming a semiconductor device and the semiconductor device. Background technique [0002] In commercial semiconductor devices, such as Three Dimensional Phase Change Memory (3D PCM), word lines (Word Line, WL) and bit lines (Bit Line, BL) are composed of 20nm / 20nm lines or gaps (Line / Space, L / S) pattern formation. Memory cells are placed at intersections between mutually perpendicular WL and BL, forming a cross-point architecture. [0003] The 3D PCM memory cells are encapsulated by a thin layer of silicon nitride to prevent the diffusion of the phase change material. However, in 3D PCM, the adhesion between the phase change material and the electrodes above and below the phase change material and the encapsulation layer is not good, which easily causes the diffusion of the phase change material along the sidewa...
