Low sheet resistance buried metal bit line realized by high-temperature metal CVD process in vertical channel transistor array
JAPANESE JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS(2024)
摘要
With the continuous evolution of dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices, there is a growing demand for increased storage density per unit area. In this work, we aim to create a high-density array of vertical channel transistors using advanced DRAM process technology. A thickness of SiO2 (X+3 nm) was determined for the protective layer, which shows the best-protecting effect. We employed CVD to grow thin Ti films on the array's bottom. To reduce the resistance of the buried bit line (BBL), we formed a high-quality metal silicide using a thermal annealing process combined with self-align technology. Nanoprobe measurement results show an average resistance of approximately 60 omega of the bit line of each cell transistor, where the low series resistance can improve device performance. Our work involved optimizing the protective layers and achieving high-performance BBLs, paving the way for the development of high-density DRAMs.
