Technical field
The present invention relates to semiconductor integrated circuit and make the field, particularly relate to 5 volts of PMOS devices in a kind of SONOS technology; The invention still further relates to the manufacture method of 5 volts of PMOS devices in a kind of SONOS technology.
Background technology
At present, existing SONOS flash memory becomes one of main flow of existing flash type because possessing advantage such as high density, big capacity, and is widely used in digital camera, in the electronic products such as smart mobile phone.Existing SONOS flash memory is to need not to provide high tension apparatus in one of circuit and technologic advantage, namely the general voltage that is used for information erasing and writes can be in 12 volts for maximum operating voltage, and the maximum operating voltage of the FLASH flash memory of the floating grid of comparing will hang down much.So one of shortcoming of existing SONOS technology is exactly that service speed is slower, the time erasable by FN tunnelling mechanism generally arrives the hundreds of millisecond at several milliseconds.Further improve existing SONOS flash memory wiping/writing speed, one of approach is the bottom oxide layer of attenuate ONO film, and its risk is that data holding ability reduces.
Another method that improves existing SONOS flash disk operation speed is the erasable voltage of increase information.But in the existing SONOS technology, this operating voltage be the raising of the erasable voltage of described information be subjected to the source/leakage PN junction of 5 volts of PMOS devices the highest withstand voltage be the restriction of puncture voltage, the highest safety operation voltage that has adopted can't further improve.If operating voltage exceeds area of safety operaton, leakage current can be well beyond circuit specification, and leakage current has also limited charge pump (Charge Pump) circuit simultaneously more high-tension ability is provided.As shown in Figure 1, structural representation for 5 volts of PMOS devices in the existing SONOS technology, existing PMOS device is formed on the silicon substrate, described silicon substrate is the N-type silicon substrate or is formed with the N trap at silicon substrate, active area is that STI shown in Fig. 1 isolates by shallow slot field oxygen, existing PMOS device comprises: be formed at the grid structure on the described active area, described grid structure is made up of gate oxide and polysilicon gate, and also being formed with side wall at the sidewall of described grid structure is the grid sidewalls.The P type source-drain area that is formed in described grid structure both sides, the described active area is source/leakage shown in Fig. 1.And be formed at N-type channel region (not indicating among Fig. 1) in the described active area in the middle of described grid structure bottom, the described P type source-drain area.Described P type source-drain area and its N-type substrate or the N trap of active area on every side can form source/leakage PN junction, the shallow slot field oxygen that can extend out from the silicon of active area by entering owing to the boron that injects in source-drain area in the existing PMOS device is that shallow trench isolation is from (STI), can cause the perk on the close side direction of STI of source/leakage PN junction, at the more shallow knot of side formation of described STI.The perk structure of described source/leakage PN junction is the weakness of the source/drain terminal PN junction of existing 5 volts of PMOS devices, has limited the raising of the puncture voltage of existing 5 volts of PMOS devices.
So the key that will improve the service speed of existing SONOS flash memory is the high-voltage safety working region of improving circuit, thereby the space is provided for the erasable operating voltage of raising information.If but by introducing the method for high-pressure process or introducing high tension apparatus, process complexity and technology cost will increase much, properties of product are improved the competitiveness of bringing and also can be weakened.Therefore the method more attractive of the puncture voltage of the source/leakage PN junction by improving 5 volts of PMOS devices.
