BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     This present invention relates to the fabrication methods used to produce semiconductor devices, and more specifically to methods used for planarizing devices using spin on glass, (SOG), chemical mechanical polishing, (CMP), and hot deposition of aluminum alloy metallization. 
     2. Description of Prior Art 
     A major objective of the semiconductor industry has been to continually improve device performance while still maintaining, or decreasing, the manufacturing cost of the specific semiconductor chip. This objective has been, in part, realized by the trend to micro-miniaturazation. The ability to fabricate semiconductor devices with sub-micron features, has allowed both the performance and cost objectives to be met. Smaller features positively influence performance by decreasing parasitic capacitances, as well as decreasing specific performance degrading resistances. In addition micro-miniaturazation has resulted in a decrease in chip size, thus enabling more chips to be placed on a specific size, starting silicon substrate, thus reducing the processing cost for a specific chip. 
     Micro-miniaturization has been accomplished by advances in several key semiconductor fabrication disciplines such as photolithography and reactive ion etching, (RIE). For example more sophisticated exposure cameras, as well as the development of more sensitive photoresist materials, have allowed sub-micron images to be routinely created in photoresist materials. In addition similar advances in anisotropic, dry etching processes, have allowed the sub-micron images in photoresist to be successfully transferred to underlying semiconductor materials. However smaller features, such as narrower metal interconnect lines, along with smaller spaces between interconnect lines, can result in difficulties in obtaining planar surfaces, which are needed to create successful subsequent upper level wiring lines. In addition to maintain the desired conductivity of the narrower metal lines, the height of the metal line has to be increased. This results in a higher aspect ratio than for counterparts fabricated with wider, thinner metal lines, again adding to the difficulties in filling the narrow spaces with insulator. 
     One method used by the semiconductor industry to fill narrow spaces, between metal lines, is a spin on glass, (SOG), process. Unlike more conventional insulator deposition processes, such as low pressure chemical vapor deposition, (LPCVD), or plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition, (PECVD), where conformal coverage of the metal line with the deposited insulator still leaves a severe topography for subsequent wiring processes, the SOG process fills these narrow spaces, and after applying subsequent planarazation techniques, results a planar topography. Prior art has shown SOG applications, such as Kim, et al, in U.S. Pat. No. 5,354,713, as well as Fisher, et al, in U.S. Pat. No. 4,917,759. However these applications, although resulting in the desired planarity, also result in the SOG layer being exposed during subsequent metal depositions. The characteristics of the SOG layer include outgassing of incorporated oxygen or moisture during a hot metal deposition process. This outgassing can result in degraded aluminum metal properties, such as increased resistivity, due to the reaction with the SOG outgassing components. 
     This invention will describe a process for achieving planar topographies, using a SOG process to fill narrow spaces between metal lines. However this invention will show SOG planarization processes, and encapsulation techniques, used to prevent SOG outgassing during subsequent hot aluminum depositions. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     It is object of this invention to use an organic photoresist plug for creation of a desired via hole shape in an insulator composite. 
     It is another object of this invention to use a SOG layer, as part of the insulator composite, for purposes of supplying a planar topography. 
     It is still another object of this invention to encapsulate most of the exposed SOG surface with a less porous dielectric layer, while encapsulating the remaining SOG surface with a barrier, metal layer, prior to deposition of aluminum. 
     In accordance with the present invention a method is described for fabricating semiconductor devices, exhibiting planar metallization and insulation levels, via the use of insulator composites, featuring SOG layers. A first metallization pattern, contacting underlying silicon device elements, is coated with an organic, photo-sensitive material. Photolithographic patterning is performed to create organic plug shapes on the first metallization pattern. A thin interlevel metal dielectric is deposited, conformally covering the organic plugs. A spin on glass, (SOG), layer is next deposited on the thin interlevel metal dielectric, for purposes of filling the spaces between organic plugs, thus creating a smoother topography. The structure, including the SOG layer, is next subjected to a bake out and curing process, for purposes of densifying the SOG layer. Another insulator layer is deposited on the cured SOG layer followed by chemical mechanical polishing to completely planarize the structure, stopping at a point where the top of the organic plugs are exposed. The organic plugs are then removed, resulting in a via hole, in the composite dielectric, to the first metallization layer. A thin contact and barrier layer is next deposited, followed by deposition aluminum. photolithographic and dry etching procedures are then employed to pattern the aluminum--barrier layers--creating the second metallization pattern.

     DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
     The method of forming a planar topography, using a SOG layer to fill the spaces between metal vias, will be covered in detail. This process can be used for the fabrication of metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors, (MOSFET), devices that are currently being manufactured in industry, therefore only the specific areas unique to understanding this invention will be described in detail. 
     FIG. 1, shows a typical, N channel, (NFET), device, where a process exhibiting a planar topography, via use of a SOG layer, will be used to fabricate reliable interconnect metallizations. A substrate, 1, composed of P type, single crystalline silicon, with a &lt;100&gt; orientation, is used. A thick field oxide, 2, (FOX), is formed surrounding the region where the device will be built. Briefly the method used to produce the FOX insulator is to create an oxidation mask of an overlying Si 3  N 4  layer, and an underlying SiO 2  layer. Conventional photolithographic and RIE processes are used to create the mask shape. After photoresist removal, and careful wet cleans, the FOX region is created in the unmasked, non-device regions, via a thermal oxidation in an oxygen--steam ambient, at a temperature between about 800° to 1000° C., to achieve FOX thickness between about 4000 to 7000 Angstroms. After removal of the oxidation masking layers, hot phosphoric acid for the Si 3  N 4  layer and a buffered hydrofluoric acid solution for the underlying SiO 2  layer, a thin SiO 2 , gate insulator, 3, is grown in an oxygen--steam ambient, at a temperature between about 800° to 1000° C., to a thickness between about 65 to 300 Angstroms. A layer of polysilicon is than deposited, using LPCVD processing, at a temperature between about 500° to 700° C., to a thickness between about 1500 to 4000 Angstroms. The polysilicon is than doped via an ion implantation of phosphorous, at an energy between about 25 to 100 Kev., at a dose between about 1E14 to 1E16 atoms/cm 2 . Another alternative is to use a polycide gate structure, consisting of a tungsten silicide layer, chemically vapor deposited to a thickness between about 1500 to 2500 Angstroms, and capped with a chemically vapor deposited polysilicon layer, at a thickness between about 500 to 1000 Angstroms. However for this invention the polysilicon gate structure will be used. Photolithographic and anisotropic RIE processes, using Cl 2  as an etchant, are used to create polysilicon gate structures, 4, shown in FIG. 1. After photoresist removal, using plasma oxygen ashing, and careful wet cleans, a blanket ion implantation is performed, using phosphorous or arsenic, at an energy between about 30 to 100 Kev., at a dose between about 1E12 to 1E13 atoms/cm 2 , is used to create lightly doped source and drain regions, 6a. Next sidewall spacer, 5, is created. The spacer is obtained by initially depositing a layer of silicon oxide, via either PECVD or LPCVD processing, at a temperature between about 400° to 925° C., to a thickness between about 1000 to 4000 Angstroms, followed by an anisotropic RIE procedure, using for example a spices like CHF 3  as an etchant. A blanket ion implantation step is again performed, using arsenic, at an energy between about 30 to 100 Kev., at a dose between about 1E13 to 1E16 atoms/cm 2 , is used to create source and drain regions, 6b, shown schematically in FIG. 1. 
     Another composite layer of undoped, or doped silicon oxide, 7, is deposited using PECVD, LPCVD, or atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition, (APCVD), processing, at a temperature between about 400° to 700° C., to a thickness between about 5000 to 10000 Angstroms. A first via hole, 8, is opened in composite silicon oxide layer, 7, to expose the surface of polysilicon gate structure, 4, or the surface of the source and drain region, 6b, using standard photolithographic and RIE procedures. For this invention the via hole, 8, will be shown opened to only to polysilicon gate structure, 4. The selective, RIE procedure was performed using CHF 3  as an etchant. After photoresist removal, accomplished by using a plasma oxygen ashing process, followed by careful wet cleans, a first level metallization is performed. The first level metallization may be composed of a barrier layer of titanium nitride, followed by an r.f. deposited layer of an aluminum--copper alloy. The aluminum--copper alloy is deposited using r.f. sputtering, to a thickness between about 6000 to 10000 Angstroms. Again conventional photolithographic and RIE processing, using for example a Cl 2  etchant, are employed to create first level metal structure, 9, shown in FIG. 2. Plasma oxygen ashing, followed by careful wet cleans, are again used to remove the photoresist image used to define first level metal structure, 9. 
     FIG. 3, shows the application of another photosensitive resist layer, 10, at a thickness between about 6000 to 12000 Angstroms. A critical exposure is next performed for purposes of creating photoresist plug, 11, shown in FIG. 4. The photoresist plug, 11, is treated, using u.v. baking, to allow it to withstand subsequent high temperature processing, at temperatures about 450° C. The photolithographic mask used to create photoresist plug, 11, is the compliment of the photolithographic mask used in conventional via opening procedures. A first interlevel dielectric layer, 12, of silicon oxide, is deposited, using PECVD processing, at a temperature between about 200° to 450° C., to a thickness between about 500 to 3000 Angstroms. It is imperative that the temperature remain below about 450° C., to avoid degradation to photoresist plug, 11. The deposition characteristics of first interlevel dielectric layer do not result in complete filling of the spaces between photoresist plugs, and by itself can not produce a planar topography for subsequent overlying metallization levels. Therefore a layer of spin on glass, (SOG), 13, is applied, using conventional coating methods, to a thickness between about 3000 to 7000 Angstroms. The SOG layer, 13, is subjected to a bake out at a temperature between about 100° to 200° C., and curing, at a temperature between about 250° to 450° C., for purpose of removing incorporated, volatile components from the SOG layer. These process sequences, shown schematically in FIG. 5, indicate the successful filling of the spaces between photoresist plugs, 11. It is also important that the subsequent via metallization, interface first dielectric layer, 12, rather than interface the less dense SOG layer, 13. 
     A second interlevel dielectric layer, 14, of silicon oxide, is now deposited using PECVD processing, at a temperature between about 200° to 450° C., to a thickness between about 6000 to 12000 Angstroms. A chemical mechanical polishing, (CMP), procedure is than used finalize the surface planarity, shown schematically in FIG. 6. The CMP process, using conventional methods, is performed to a point in which the top surface of photoresist plug, 11, is exposed. At this stage the photoresist plugs, 11, are removed using plasma oxygen ashing or wet chemical processing, followed by careful wet cleans, and a sputter clean, performed in a metal deposition tool, for purposes of removing native oxide from the surface of first level metal structure, 9. The removal of photoresist plug, 11, results in the formation of the second via hole, 15, shown in FIG. 7. 
     A contact and barrier metallization, 16, of titanium, at a thickness between about 300 to 1000 Angstroms, and titanium nitride, at a thickness between about 200 to 1000 Angstroms, is deposited and shown in FIG. 8. Next a deposition of an aluminum copper layer, 17, is performed using r.f. sputtering, at a temperature between about 22° to 550° C. The ability to perform the aluminum based metallization at elevated temperatures, results in the optimum metal characteristics, such as resistivity and conformality. This was possible since no SOG layer was exposed at the sidewall of the via. If the SOG layer was exposed during the aluminum deposition, possible evolution of volatile components could have occurred, deleteriously influencing the properties of the aluminum metallurgy. In addition to the deposition of the contact and barrier layer, 16, and the aluminum based metallurgy layer, 17, a anti-reflective coating, (ARC), for example a layer of titanium nitride. 18, is also deposited using r.f. sputtering, to a thickness between about 5000 to 10000 Angstroms. The ARC layer will aid in allowing subsequent photolithographic exposures to be performed. Conventional photolithographic and RIE procedures, using for example, Cl 2  as an etchant, are performed to create the second level metal structure, consisting of titanium nitride, aluminum--copper, titanium nitride--titanium. Photoresist removal is again accomplished via plasma oxygen ashing and careful wet cleans. The resulting second level metal structure is shown schematically in FIG. 9. 
     This process of using a SOG layer to create planar topographies for subsequent metallization levels, although shown being applied to an N channel MOSFET device, can be applied to a P channel, (PFET), device, a complimentary, (CMOS), device, or a BiCMOS, (bipolar - CMOS), device. 
     While this invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to, the preferred embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention.
A process has been developed in which planar, multilevel metallizations, are used to fabricate semiconductor devices. The process features initially forming tall, narrow photoresist plugs, and filling the spaces between photoresist plugs with a planarizing layer of a composite dielectric, which includes a spin on glass layer. Removal of the photoresist plug results in the creation of a narrow via hole. The composite dielectric was deposited by initially using a non-porous, silicon oxide layer, followed by the planarizing spin on glass layer. Therefore metal via fills will interface the non-porous, silicon oxide layer.
