DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

It should be noted that the following detailed description is illustrative and is intended to provide a further description of the disclosure. Unless otherwise indicated, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as that commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the disclosure belongs.


It is to be noted that terms used herein are only to describe specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments of the disclosure. As used herein, unless otherwise explicitly indicated in the context, a singular form is also intended to include a plural form. In addition, it is also to be understood that when the terms “include” and/or “have” are used in the description, they are intended to indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and/or combinations thereof.


It is to be understood that when a component (such as a layer, a film, an area, or a substrate) is described as being “on” another component, this component can be directly on the other component, or there can be an intermediate component. Further, in the specification and the claims, when a component is described as being “connected” to another component, this component can be “directly connected” to the another component or “connected” to the other component through a third component.


As introduced in the background, in a semiconductor structure including a capacitor in the conventional art, the resistance of a capacitor plate on the capacitor is large, so the resistance of the semiconductor structure is large, which affects the performance of the semiconductor structure. In order to solve the above technical problem, the disclosure presents a semiconductor structure, a layout of the semiconductor structure and a semiconductor device.


In a typical implementation mode of the disclosure, a semiconductor structure is provided. As shown in FIG. 1, the semiconductor structure include a plurality of first conductive layers 10 which are spaced, a plurality of capacitor banks 20, a capacitor plate 30 and a second conductive layer 50. The plurality of the capacitor banks 20 are on the first conductive layer 10 in one-to-one correspondence. The capacitor bank 20 includes at least a capacitor 21. Each of the capacitor 21 includes a lower electrode layer, a capacitance dielectric layer and an upper electrode layer stacked from bottom to top, that is, the lower electrode layer is on the first conductive layer 10, the capacitance dielectric layer is on the lower electrode layer, and the upper electrode layer is on the capacitance dielectric layer. The specific structure of the capacitor bank 20 is not shown in the figure. The capacitor plate 30 is on each of the upper electrode layer, that is, the plurality of the capacitor banks are actually connected in series. The second conductive layer 50 is above the capacitor plate 30 and connected with the capacitor plate 30.


In the above semiconductor structure, the second conductive layer 50 is formed above the capacitor plate 30, and the second conductive layer 50 is connected with the capacitor plate 30, so that in the semiconductor structure, the second conductive layer 50 is equivalent to being connected in parallel at two ends of the capacitor plate 30, that is, the second conductive layer 50 is connected with the capacitor plate 30 in parallel, and the resistance formed by the parallel connection of the second conductive layer and the capacitor plate is lower than the resistance of the capacitor plate 30 itself. Therefore, compared to the semiconductor structure without the second conductive layer 50, the resistance of the semiconductor structure with the second conductive layer 50 is low, thereby avoiding the problem of affecting the performance due to the high resistance and improving the performance of the semiconductor structure.


As shown in FIG. 1, in a specific embodiment of the disclosure, the semiconductor structure further include a first contact via 40, which is between the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50, and is used for connecting the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50. The second conductive layer 50 and the capacitor plate 30 can be more conveniently connected through the first contact via 40. The equivalent circuit diagram of the structure is shown in FIG. 2. It can be seen from FIG. 2 that the resistance of the part formed by the capacitor plate 30, the second conductive layer 50 and the first contact via 40 meets Rtotal=RCT+M1//RTCP, and RTCP is the resistance of the capacitor plate 30, RCT+M1 is the resistance of the second conductive layer 50 and the first contact via 40, and Rtotal is the equivalent resistance of the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50 connected in parallel. Therefore, compared to the semiconductor structure without the second conductive layer 50, the resistance in the structure is still low.


The materials of the first contact via in the disclosure are conductive material, which can be selected according to the actual situation, including but not limited to wolfram (W), cuprum (Cu), nickel (Ni), gold (Au) or argentum (Ag), etc.


Specifically, the number of the first contact vias can be set according to the area of the second conductive layer, etc. There can be a plurality of the first contact vias, and there can also be one first contact via. For example, when the area of the second conductive layer is large, the number of the first contact vias can be set to be larger; when the area of the second conductive layer is small, the number of the first contact vias can be set to be small correspondingly. The larger the number of the first contact vias, the lower the overall equivalent resistance, and the lower the equivalent resistance of the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50 connected in parallel.


In order to connect the second conductive layer 50 and the capacitor plate 30 better, and stably support the second conductive layer 50, as shown in FIG. 1, in a specific embodiment of the disclosure, there are a plurality of the first contact vias 40, and the plurality of the first contact vias 40 are set intervals.


There can be one second conductive layer 50, as shown in FIG. 1; in this case, the area of the second conductive layer 50 is approximately equal to that of the capacitor plate 30 (actually the area of the second conductive layer is slightly smaller).

In an embodiment of the disclosure, as shown in FIG. 3, there are a plurality of the second conductive layers 50, and the plurality of the second conductive layers 50 are set intervals in a predetermined direction which is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first conductive layer 10. In this case, the sum of the areas of all of the plurality of the second conductive layers 50 can be approximately equal to the area of the capacitor plate 30.


It is also to be noted that when there is one second conductive layer, the second conductive layer can be formed by one or a plurality of metal materials. When the second conductive layer is formed by the plurality of the metal materials, the plurality of the metal materials can be mixed to form a single layer, or can form a metal layer separately, and the plurality of the metal materials form a plurality of the metal layers, and the plurality of the metal layers are superimposed to form the second conductive layer. When there are the plurality of the second conductive layers, the materials and thicknesses of the plurality of the second conductive layers can be the same or different. When the thicknesses are different, the height of the first contact via can also be adjusted. In addition, the specific material setting of each of the plurality of the second conductive layer can be seen in the case of one second conductive layer, which will not be described here.


In another embodiment of the disclosure, the material of the first conductive layer of the disclosure can be metal, that is, the first conductive layer is a metal layer. The top of the first conductive layer is connected with the bottom of the lower electrode layer.


The lower electrode layer of the disclosure can include conductive compounds formed by one or two of metal nitrides and metal silicides, such as Titanium Nitride, Titanium Silicide, Nickel Silicide, and TiSixNy. In a specific embodiment of the disclosure, the lower electrode layer includes a TiSixNy layer formed by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD).


The capacitance dielectric layer of the disclosure can be a high K dielectric layer, so as to improve the capacitance value per unit area, and can include a layer stack formed by nitrides or one of ZrOx, HfOx, ZrTiOx, RuOx, SbOx and AlOx or more than two of the group of the above materials.


The upper electrode layer of the disclosure can include compounds formed by one or two of metal nitrides and metal silicides, such as Titanium Nitride, Titanium Silicide, Nickel Silicide, and TiSixNy. In a specific embodiment, the upper electrode layer include a TiSixNy layer formed by ALD.


It is to be noted that the materials of the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer in the disclosure can include, but are not limited to, wolfram (W), cuprum (Cu), nickel (Ni), gold (Au) or argentum (Ag), etc. The materials of the second conductive layer and the first conductive layer can be the same or different, and those skilled in the art can choose the suitable material according to the actual situation.


The capacitor plate of the disclosure is a conductive layer, which can include conductive materials and semiconductor materials, such as Si and/or Ge. Suitable materials can be selected according to the actual situation to form the capacitor plate 30 of the disclosure.


In a specific embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the semiconductor structure of the disclosure also includes a second contact via 60, which is on the first conductive layer 10 and outside a predetermined area of the capacitor plate. The predetermined area is an area, in which the capacitor bank is set, of the first conductive layer.


The material of the second contact via is conductive material, which can be selected according to the actual situation, including but not limited to wolfram (W), cuprum (Cu), nickel (Ni), gold (Au) or argentum (Ag), etc.


In a specific embodiment of the disclosure, there are a plurality of the second contact vias 60. In the specific design process, one or more second contact vias can be set according to the actual situation, and the specific position can also be adjusted according to the actual situation.


In another typical implementation mode of the disclosure, a layout of a semiconductor structure is provided. As shown in FIG. 4, the layout include a plurality of first conductive layer patterns 100 which are set intervals, a plurality of capacitor bank patterns 200, a capacitor plate pattern 300 and a second conductive layer pattern 500. The capacitor bank pattern 200 is on the first conductive layer pattern 100 in one-to-one correspondence. The capacitor bank pattern 200 includes at least a capacitor pattern 201. The capacitor plate pattern 300 is overlaid on each of the plurality of the capacitor bank patterns 200. The second conductive layer pattern 500 is overlaid on at least a part of the capacitor plate pattern 300.


In the layout of the semiconductor structure, the second conductive pattern is on the capacitor plate pattern, so that the second conductive layer is formed correspondingly on the capacitor plate in the semiconductor structure corresponding to the layout, that is, the second conductive layer connected with the capacitor plate is formed; the second conductive layer is equivalent to being connected in parallel at two ends of the capacitor plate, that is, the second conductive layer is connected with the capacitor plate in parallel, and the resistance formed by the parallel connection of the second conductive layer and the capacitor plate is lower than the resistance of the capacitor plate itself. Therefore, compared to the layout of the semiconductor structure without the second conductive layer pattern, the resistance of the semiconductor structure corresponding to the layout added the second conductive layer pattern is low, thereby avoiding the problem of affecting the performance due to the high resistance and improving the performance of the semiconductor structure.


As shown in FIG. 4, in a specific embodiment of the disclosure, the semiconductor structure further includes a first contact via pattern 400, which is between the capacitor plate pattern 300 and the second conductive layer pattern 500. Specifically, the first contact via pattern 400 is on the capacitor plate pattern 300, and the second conductive layer pattern 500 is overlaid on the first contact via pattern 400. In this way, when the semiconductor structure corresponding to the layout is used, the corresponding first contact via pattern forms a first contact via, and the first contact via is connected with the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50, as shown in FIG. 1. The second conductive layer 50 and the capacitor plate 30 can be more conveniently connected through the first contact via 40. The equivalent circuit diagram of the structure is shown in FIG. 2. It can be seen from FIG. 2 that the resistance of the part formed by the capacitor plate 30, the second conductive layer 50 and the first contact via 40 meets Rtotal=RCT+M1//RTCP, and RTCP is the resistance of the capacitor plate 30, RCT+M1 is the resistance of the second conductive layer 50 and the first contact via 40, and Rtotal is the equivalent resistance of the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50 connected in parallel. Therefore, compared to the layout of the semiconductor structure without the second conductive layer pattern 500, the resistance in the corresponding semiconductor structure is still low.


It is to be noted that in order to display each pattern, so that those skilled in the art can more clearly know the position of each pattern, FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 of the disclosure are actually perspectives of the layout, that is, some patterns that have actually been covered by other patterns are also shown. In FIG. 4, the capacitor bank pattern 200 that has been covered by the capacitor plate pattern 300 is shown, and the first contact via pattern 400 that has been covered by the second conductive layer pattern 500 is also shown. In FIG. 6, the capacitor bank pattern 200 that has actually been covered by the capacitor plate pattern 300 is shown.


Specifically, the number of the first contact via patterns 400 can be set according to the area of the second conductive layer pattern 500, etc. There can be a plurality of the first contact vias or one first contact via. For example, when the area of the second conductive layer pattern 500 is large, the number of the first contact via patterns 400 can be set to be larger; when the area of the second conductive layer pattern 500 is small, the number of the first contact via patterns 400 can be set to be smaller correspondingly. The larger the number of the first contact via patterns, the lower the overall equivalent resistance, and the lower the equivalent resistance of the capacitor plate 30 and the second conductive layer 50 connected in parallel.


In order to better connect the second conductive layer 50 and the capacitor plate 30 in the corresponding semiconductor structure, and stably support the second conductive layer 50, as shown in FIG. 4, in a specific embodiment of the disclosure, there are a plurality of the first contact via patterns 400, and the plurality of the first contact via patterns 400 are spaced.

Of course, there can be a plurality of the second conductive layer patterns 500. In an embodiment of the disclosure, there are a plurality of the second conductive layer patterns, and the plurality of the second conductive layer patterns are spaced. In this case, the sum of the areas of all the second conductive layer patterns can be approximately equal to the area of the capacitor plate pattern 300.
