Abstract(in English) The fluorine-doped silicon oxide (SiOF) as a low dielectric material is formed by high density plasma (HDP) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method using SiH4, SiF4, O2 and Ar as source gases. We studied the reaction mechanism of HDP-SiOF film formation, and evaluated the gap-fill characteristics and parasitic capacitance between metal lines for inter-metal dielectric (IMD) application. SiF4 gas is not only source of Si-F bond in SiOF film but also have in-situ chemically etching characteristics. In case of insufficient amount of O_2 flux, the unstable Si-F_2 bonds were formed in the HDP-SiOF film. The dielectric constant of HDP-SiOF film could be reduced by 23% compared to fhat of PE-TEOS oxide film. Using HDP-SiOF film as gap-filling material in IMD, the gap was completely filled at the aspec ratio below 2.0 and the parasitic capacitance between metal lines could be reduced by 15% compared to that of USG process.
