The thickness of described oxide layer 121 is lower, it is follow-up after described oxide layer 121 surfaces form the N-type emitter, due to the emission resistance that has the described emitter of oxide layer 121 meeting raising between described P type base stage and N-type emitter, although can satisfying break-through, electronics crosses described oxide layer 121 arrival P type base stages, but the electron amount that arrives base stage from emitter can descend, thereby reduces the performance of described NPN transistor.
Please refer to Figure 11, at the interior formation N-type of described the second opening 106 polysilicon layer 107, described N-type polysilicon layer 107 covers the inwall of the second opening 106 and the surface of the second insulating barrier 105.
Described N-type polysilicon layer adopts epitaxy technique to form, and is positioned at the N-type emitter of the described N-type polysilicon layer 107 on described oxide layer 121 surfaces as bipolar transistor.In the present embodiment, the doping ion of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 is arsenic, and in other embodiments of the invention, the doping ion of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 can also be other N-type ions such as phosphorus.In other embodiments of the invention, also can in described the second opening, form other materials, as emitter, such as monocrystalline silicon etc.
Please refer to Figure 12, after forming described N-type polysilicon layer 107, above-mentioned semiconductor structure is carried out to annealing in process, cavity 122 appears in the oxide layer 121 that annealing in process makes; After carrying out above-mentioned annealing in process, on described N-type polysilicon layer 107 surfaces, form pattern mask layer (not shown); Take described pattern mask layer as mask, the described N-type polysilicon layer 107 of etching and the second insulating barrier 105, expose the part surface away from the base polysilicon layer 103 of described the second opening portion, and remainder N-type polysilicon layer 107 is as the N-type emitter; In described base polysilicon layer 104, N-type polysilicon layer 107 and the first insulating barrier 105 sidewall surfaces, form protective layer 108.
Described annealing in process is rapid thermal anneal process, and annealing temperature is 800 ℃~1000 ℃, and annealing time is 10s~50s.In the present embodiment, described annealing temperature is 900 ℃, and annealing time is 30s.Described annealing in process can be carried out in one or more gases such as nitrogen, helium, argon gas, xenon.Annealing in process makes the interior appearance of described oxide layer 121 cavity 122, and a large amount of electronics can directly enter in P type base stage from N-type polysilicon layer 107 by described cavity, thereby reduces the emitter resistance of bipolar transistor.

In other embodiments of the invention, also can after the described N-type polysilicon layer of etching and the second insulating barrier, carry out annealing in process, make the interior appearance of described oxide layer 121 cavity 122.
Described empty 122 between described P type base stage 120 and N-type polysilicon layer 107, and described empty 122 is the vacuum cavity.Because the size in described cavity is minimum, the electrons in N-type polysilicon layer 107 directly arrives described P type base stage 120 by described cavity.
In other embodiments of the invention, carrying out annealing in process, form in described empty 122 process, the lattice structure of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 is recombinated, and with the N-type polysilicon layer 107 on oxide skin(coating) 122 contact-making surfaces, can fill full described empty 122 and directly contact with P type base stage 120.
Please refer to Figure 13 to Figure 15, be the annealing in process process, the interior process schematic diagram that cavity occurs of described oxide layer 121.
Please refer to Figure 13, before carrying out annealing in process, described oxide layer 121 and the partial schematic diagram that is positioned at the N-type polysilicon layer 107 on described oxide layer 121 surfaces.
The material internal of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 has the crystal grain of different crystal orientations and size, and there is crystal boundary in different intergranules.Crystal boundary is the transitional region of different intergranules, is also the zone of the intensive existence of defect, and near grain boundary structure, atomic arrangement is comparatively loose, and foreign atom is easily assembled in the crystal boundary position.When temperature raise, this aggregation tendency can be more obvious.
The surface of described oxide layer 121 is comparatively smooth, and Thickness Ratio is more even.Described oxide layer 121 can form a potential barrier for hole, stops P type base stage 120(to please refer to Figure 12) in hole to the interior diffusion of described N-type polysilicon layer 107, thereby can reduce base current I b, the multiplication factor of raising bipolar transistor.But because described oxide layer 121 can improve the emitter resistance of emitter, thereby can improve the power consumption of described bipolar transistor, affect transistorized performance.
So, when utilizing described oxide layer 121 to improve the multiplication factor of bipolar transistor, further reduce described emitter resistance, can further improve the performance of described bipolar transistor.
In the present embodiment, after forming described N-type polysilicon layer 107, above-mentioned semiconductor structure is carried out to annealing in process, reduce emitter resistance.
Described annealing in process adopts rapid thermal anneal process, and annealing temperature is 800 ℃~1000 ℃, and annealing time is 10s~50s.In the present embodiment, described annealing temperature is 900 ℃, and annealing time is 30s.Described annealing in process can be carried out in one or more gases such as nitrogen, helium, argon gas, xenon.
Please refer to Figure 14, for carrying out the annealing in process initial stage, described oxide layer 121 and the partial schematic diagram that is positioned at the N-type polysilicon layer 107 on described oxide layer 121 surfaces.
Because N-type polysilicon layer 107 is interior doped with the N-type ion, described N-type ion is easily assembled near crystal boundary, and in the annealing in process process under above-mentioned parameter, the energy of N-type ion increases, and diffusion velocity increases.Near the contact-making surface of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 and oxide layer 121, N-type ion in N-type polysilicon layer 107 spreads downwards, and because the atomic mass of described N-type ion is larger, described atom has certain energy, clash into described oxide layer 121, make described oxide layer 121 surfaces depression occur; And because the concentration of the N-type ion of the crystal boundary position of described N-type polysilicon layer 107 is higher, the thickness of described oxide layer 121 near described crystal boundary position obviously descends, the silica at this place shifts to both sides under the effect of impact of N-type ion, make surperficial depression of oxide layer 121 near the N-type polysilicon layer 170 of grain boundaries.
Simultaneously, in annealing process, the inner atom increased activity of oxide layer 121, under effect of impact due to the silica N-type ion in the N-type polysilicon layer near the N-type polysilicon layer 170 of grain boundaries, to both sides, shift, oxide layer 121 rearranges at the annealing process Atom, makes the thickness away from the oxide layer 121 of the N-type polysilicon layer 170 of grain boundaries improve.
Please refer to Figure 15, for after described annealing in process completes, described oxide layer 121 and be positioned at the partial schematic diagram of the N-type polysilicon layer 107 on described oxide layer 121 surfaces.
After the process annealing in process of certain hour, the interior thickness near N-type polysilicon layer 107 positions of described oxide layer 121 continues to descend, and occurs empty 122.Described empty 122 cover 1%~20% of P type base stage and N shape emitter interface, and preferably, described empty 122 cover 20% of P type base stage and N shape emitter interface.The coverage rate in described cavity can be by the temperature and time adjustment of annealing.
After the interior appearance of described oxide layer 121 cavity 122, a large amount of electronics can directly enter in P type base stage from N-type polysilicon layer 107 by described cavity, thereby reduce the emitter resistance of bipolar transistor.
But due to the mobility in the hole mobility less than electronics, and the coverage rate in described cavity is lower, so, the quantity that hole in P type base stage enters into the N-type polysilicon layer by described cavity seldom, majority still enters into the N-type polysilicon layer by the described oxide layer 121 of tunnelling, forms base current I b, described base current I bSize remains unchanged substantially.
Between emitter and base stage, apply bias voltage V BESituation under, the actual voltage V that is added on emitter and base stage Be=V BE-I e* R e-I b* R b, Ie emitter current wherein, R eFor emitter resistance, I bFor base current, R bFor base resistance.Due to emitter resistance R eReduce I bAnd R bRemain unchanged, so between emitter and base stage, apply bias voltage V BEIn identical situation, after the employing embodiments of the invention carry out annealing in process, the actual voltage V that is added on emitter and base stage BeImprove the collector current I that makes cIncrease, and then make the magnificationfactorβ=I of described bipolar transistor c/ I bImprove, thus the performance of raising bipolar transistor.
Please refer to Figure 16, after the interior formation of described oxide layer 121 cavity 122, the partial schematic diagram of electronics and hole flow.
After annealing in process, the interior formation of described oxide layer 121 cavity 122, electronics flows in from N-type polysilicon layer (N-type emitter) to P type base stage by described empty 122, the formation emitter current.Tunneling effect is mainly still passed through in hole in P type base stage, by oxide layer 121 tunnellings, enter in N-type polysilicon layer (N-type emitter), described tunneling effect is to be determined by the thickness of oxide layer 121, because the thickness surface of described oxide layer 121 is very little, so hole current does not have to change substantially.So on the whole, quantity that electronics passes through increases and the quantity in hole not have variation substantially, thereby can improve the emitter current of bipolar transistor.
Please refer to Figure 17, for the emitter resistance rate of bipolar transistor, the base stage saturation current graph of a relation with the coverage rate of oxide layer, wherein, curve 1 is the base stage saturation current curve of bipolar transistor, and curve 2 is the curve of the emitter resistance rate of bipolar transistor.
Adopt the method in the above embodiment of the present invention, by the temperature and time that control is annealed, can adjust empty area, namely adjust the coverage rate of oxide layer on P type base stage and N shape emitter interface.Annealing temperature is higher, annealing time is longer, and the coverage rate of oxide layer is lower.
As can be seen from Figure 17, when the oxide layer coverage rate, reduce to 80% process from 100%, the emitter resistance rate declines by a big margin; And base stage saturation current amplitude of variation is very little.So in the present embodiment, preferred, the coverage rate of described oxide layer is 80%, namely the coverage rate in cavity is 20%, the emitter resistance rate of reduction bipolar transistor that can be by a relatively large margin, and improve multiplication factor.
In the forming process of the bipolar transistor of the present embodiment, described P type base stage and N-type emitter are annealed, make the oxide layer fracture of described P type base surface, produce cavity, improve the multiplication factor of bipolar transistor, reduce emitter resistance.
Although the present invention discloses as above, the present invention not is defined in this.Any those skilled in the art, without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, all can make various changes or modifications, so protection scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with the claim limited range.
