As stated in the Background Art, in prior art, the performance with the common gate electrode CMOS tube of high-K gate dielectric layer and metal gate electrode is not good.
The present inventor finds through research, as described in Figure 1, described first grid structure 101 is for the formation of the grid structure of PMOS, and described second grid structure 102 is for the formation of the grid structure of NMOS tube, therefore, in order to meet the different performance demand of PMOS and NMOS tube, described first work-function layer 111 is different with the material of the second work-function layer 121; Concrete, described first work-function layer 111 needs to have higher work function, described second work-function layer 121 needs to have lower work function, regulates the threshold voltage of formed PMOS and NOMS pipe with this, thus ensures the stable performance of the CMOS tube formed.
In order to form the first different work-function layer 111 and the second work-function layer 121 of material, form the method for described common gate electrode CMOS tube as shown in Figures 3 to 5.
Please refer to Fig. 3, the Semiconductor substrate 100 comprising adjacent PMOS area I and NMOS area II is provided, described Semiconductor substrate 100 surface has dielectric layer 103, there is in described dielectric layer 103 first opening (not shown), described first opening exposes Semiconductor substrate 100 surface of PMOS area I and NMOS area II, have in described first opening and cover the sidewall of described first opening and the high-K gate dielectric layer 130 of lower surface, be positioned at first work-function layer 111 on described high-K gate dielectric layer 130 surface, and be positioned at first metal gate 112 on described first work-function layer 111 surface.
Please refer to Fig. 4, first work-function layer 111 of removal NMOS area II and the first metal gate 112, till exposing high-K gate dielectric layer 130, form the second opening 109.
Please refer to Fig. 5, formed at described second opening 109(as shown in Figure 4) and cover the sidewall of described second opening 109 and the second work-function layer 121 of lower surface, and be positioned at the second metal gate 122 of described second work-function layer 121 surface and full described second opening 109 of filling.Wherein, the high-K gate dielectric layer 130 being positioned at PMOS area I is the first high-K gate dielectric layer 110, and the high-K gate dielectric layer 130 being positioned at NMOS area II is the second high-K gate dielectric layer 120.
But, in the common gate electrode CMOS tube formed with said method, between described first metal gate 112 and the second metal gate 122, easily form oxide layer; Described oxide layer can cause the resistance between described first metal gate 112 and the second metal gate 122 to increase, and even makes electric isolution between described first metal gate 112 and the second metal gate 122, and then makes the degradation of formed CMOS tube.Concrete, because the material of described first metal gate 112 is metal, such as copper, tungsten or aluminium, the material of described first work-function layer 111 is metal or metallic compound, such as titanium nitride or tantalum nitride, and described metal or metallic compound are very easily oxidized; As shown in Figure 4, first work-function layer 111 of described removal NMOS area II and the technique of the first metal gate 112 are anisotropic dry etch process, and the etching gas in described anisotropic dry etch process, or in the cleaning process after described anisotropic dry etch process, very easily make described first metal gate 112 and the first work-function layer 111 be oxidized.Therefore, when forming common gate electrode CMOS tube with said method, the first metal gate 112 of described second opening 109 and the sidewall surfaces of the first work-function layer 111 side form oxide layer; And then after follow-up formation second work-function layer 121 and the second metal gate 122, can be isolated by described oxide layer between described first metal gate 112 and the second metal gate 122, the resistance between described first metal gate 112 and the second metal gate 122 is caused to increase, even be electrically isolated from each other, cause the degradation of formed CMOS tube.
The present inventor after further research, after formation first grid structure and second grid structure, second dielectric layer is formed in described first grid structure and second grid body structure surface, there is in described second dielectric layer the contact through hole exposing part first grid structure and part second grid body structure surface, and form conductive plunger in described contact through hole; Produce electric isolution between described first metal gate and the second metal gate after, described conductive plunger can make to be electrically connected between described first metal gate and the second metal gate, makes the performance improvement of formed common grid CMOS tube.
