A kind of manufacture method of MOS capacitor. Fig. 2 is the flow chart making MOS capacitor according to one embodiment of the present invention.
Perform step 201, it is provided that substrate, this substrate comprises multiple region.
Exemplarily, substrate can be at least one in the following material being previously mentioned: stacking SiGe (S-SiGeOI), germanium on insulator SiClx (SiGeOI) and germanium on insulator (GeOI) etc. on stacking silicon (SSOI), insulator on silicon, silicon-on-insulator (SOI), insulator. Substrate comprises multiple region, and the plurality of region is for respectively forming MOS capacitor, and each region is only formed a MOS capacitor. The size in these regions and quantity can carry out self-defined according to the quantity and size etc. of the effective area of substrate, MOS capacitor to be formed by Producer.
Perform step 202, the oxytropism adulterant of variable concentrations and/or the kind of adulterating respectively in multiple regions.
The oxytropism adulterant of variable concentrations and/or the kind of adulterating respectively in above-mentioned each region, the concentration of the oxytropism adulterant namely adulterated in each region is different, or the kind of oxytropism adulterant is different, or the concentration of oxytropism adulterant and kind are all different. Oxytropism adulterant by adulterate in different regions variable concentrations and/or kind, it is possible to make regions different on substrate have different oxyphie characteristics, in order to can have different work functions when being subsequently formed oxide skin(coating) such as what hereinafter will describe.
Kinds of processes can be adopted to adulterate in the zones of different of substrate the oxytropism adulterant of variable concentrations and/or kind. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the technique that doping adopts is ion implantation technology, adopt this method and can control to be easy to doping content easily by control implantation dosage and injection length, and also can change dopant species easily by changing target source. Specifically, when adopting ion implantation technology to adulterate, oxytropism adulterant for adulterate in different regions variable concentrations and/or kind, photoetching process can be coordinated to use together, namely when needing to be adulterated in the first area in multiple regions, it is possible to form the first photoresist layer only exposing first area on substrate; Then ion implantation technology is carried out; Finally remove the first photoresist layer. When the second area in multiple regions is adulterated, it is possible to form the second photoresist layer only exposing second area on substrate; Then ion implantation technology is carried out; Finally remove the second photoresist layer. The like, until all of region all completes doping on substrate.
Compared with forming oxide skin(coating) with on unadulterated region, when forming oxide skin(coating) on the region doped with oxytropism adulterant, oxide skin(coating) can have higher growth rate. The oxytropism adulterant with this characteristic includes phosphorus or arsenic etc.
Further, the implantation dosage of ion implantation technology is more than zero and less than or equal to 2 �� 1015/cm2, to avoid the injection of high dose that substrate surface is caused damage. From the viewpoint of time efficiency etc., it is preferable that the injection length of ion implantation technology can be the 10-100 second.

Perform step 203, multiple regions are formed oxide skin(coating) (i.e. the dielectric layer of MOS capacitor).
Zones of different at substrate is respectively formed on oxide skin(coating), and owing to the concentration of oxytropism adulterant adulterated in zones of different and/or kind are different, therefore, the growth rate of the oxide skin(coating) in zones of different is different, and then makes it have different work functions. Preferably, the thickness of oxide skin(coating) can be 10-30 angstrom, to ensure oxide skin(coating) effectiveness in MOS capacitor. Oxide skin(coating) can adopt multiple method to grow, it is preferable that the method forming oxide is rapid thermal oxidation. By adopting rapid thermal oxidation to carry out grown oxide layer, oxytropism adulterant is relatively big on the impact of the growth rate of oxide skin(coating), and then is easier to be formed the oxide skin(coating) of different-thickness in different regions.
Oxide skin(coating) well known to a person skilled in the art oxide skin(coating) or composite oxide layer typically. The exemplary embodiment of oxide skin(coating) includes but not limited to: the composite bed that alumina layer, tantalum oxide layers, titanium oxide layer, zirconia layer, yttrium oxide layer, Gadolinia. layer, lanthana layer, silicon oxide layer, lanthana aluminium lamination, hafnium oxide layer and above-mentioned various material layers are formed.
