Description

There is fin formula field effect transistor leaking in GeSn source and forming method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of semiconductor manufacture, be specifically related to fin formula field effect transistor leaking in a kind of GeSn of having source and forming method thereof.
Background technology
Metal-oxide semiconductor fieldeffect transistor (MOSFET) is for integrated circuit industry served for four more than ten years.People have invented various ingenious technology constantly dwindles its characteristic size, but does not change its basic structure.But integrated circuit (IC) design window, comprises performance, dynamic power consumption, quiescent dissipation and device tolerance, has narrowed down to the stage of having to invent a kind of new transistor arrangement.Along with long constantly the dwindling of grid, the transfer characteristic (I of MOSFET ds-V gs) degenerate, be mainly manifested in two aspects.The one, sub-threshold slope becomes large and threshold voltage reduction, that is to say, by reducing gate electrode voltage V gscan not make MOS device turn-off finely.On the other hand, sub-threshold slope and threshold voltage are all responsive especially to the long variation of grid, that is to say, the process allowance of MOS device becomes non-constant, and this phenomenon is called as short-channel effect.
In order effectively to suppress short-channel effect, researcher has proposed a kind of device architecture on the one hand, and this device architecture makes semiconductor channel only exist only in the very place near grid, can eliminate all leak channels away from grid.Because now this semiconductor channel is sufficiently thin, its shape looks like the fin (Fin) of a fish, thereby researcher is called fin formula field effect transistor (FinFET) visually.FinFET device can significantly strengthen the control ability of grid to raceway groove, has effectively suppressed short-channel effect, make it have that drive current is large, off-state current is little, devices switch than high, cost is low, transistor density advantages of higher.The material of Fin can adopt cheap body Si substrate or silicon-on-insulator substrate (SOI) to process.
On the other hand, along with constantly dwindling of device size, the mobility that Si material is lower has become the principal element of restriction device performance.For the performance of continuous boost device, must adopt the more channel material of high mobility.The main technical schemes of research is at present: adopt Ge or SiGe material to do the channel material of PMOSFET device, III-V compound semiconductor materials is the channel material of NMOSFET device.Ge has the hole mobility that is four times in Si, and along with deepening continuously of research, the technological difficulties in Ge and SiGe channel mosfet are captured one by one.In the MOSFET of Ge or SiGe device, in order to introduce single shaft compressive strain in Ge or SiGe raceway groove, can fill strain Ge at source and drain areas 1-xsn x(GeSn) alloy, the strain GeSn leaking by source like this can introduce single shaft compressive strain in raceway groove, significantly promotes the performance of Ge or SiGe raceway groove, and when channel length is during at nanoscale, its performance boost is particularly evident.With Ge mutually compatible GeSn alloy be a kind of IV family semi-conducting material, and there is good compatibility with complementary metal oxide semiconductors (CMOS) (CMOS) technique of silicon.But the GeSn alloy of the high Sn content of direct growth high-quality is very difficult.First, the equilirbium solid solubility of Sn in Ge is less than 1%(and is about 0.3%); Secondly, the surface of Sn can be less than Ge, is very easy to occur fractional condensation on surface; Again, Ge and α-Sn have very large lattice mismatch (14.7%).
In the time of growth GeSn material, the method conventionally adopting is molecular beam epitaxy (MBE).Wherein, the process of existing MBE technique growth GeSn material is: insert Sn solid metal as Sn source material in the Sn solid source stove of vacuum chamber; Substrate is inserted on the heater of vacuum chamber of molecular beam epitaxy source stove, vacuum chamber is vacuumized, substrate is heated; To the heating of Sn solid metal, make the fusing of Sn solid metal, evaporation produces the atom of Sn, opens baffle plate, makes Sn atom arrive substrate surface; In the vacuum chamber of molecular beam epitaxy source stove, pass into the chemical compound gas that contains Ge, make Ge atomic deposition to substrate surface, complete the epitaxial growth of GeSn alloy.The method can obtain the good GeSn film of crystal mass, but apparatus expensive, growth course is comparatively time-consuming, and cost is higher, in large-scale production, will be subject to certain limitation.Also someone adopts chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique growth GeSn film, but the GeSn film quality making is poor, and thermal stability is not good, and the easy fractional condensation of Sn, is not suitable for semiconductor device yet.And, in FinFET structure, the method that generally need to adopt constituency to form forms GeSn at source-drain area, can adopt in theory chemical vapor deposition to carry out selective growth GeSn film, and the thermal stability of the method in the time of non-selective growth GeSn alloy is not good at present, the easy fractional condensation of Sn, its selective growth technique is still immature, and cost is also higher.

According to the formation method of the FinFET of second embodiment of the invention, can obtain equally the fin-shaped field effect transistor that GeSn is source-drain area, and the GeSn layer thickness of source-drain area is thinner, quality is better, and the method have advantages of simple, cost is low.
According to the present invention in the formation method of the FinFET of above-mentioned two embodiment, by utilizing injection technology to carry out surface modification to original Ge layer.The atom, molecule, ion or the plasma that are about to contain Sn element are injected in original Ge layer, by controlling suitable temperature and implantation dosage, make the not obvious diffusion of Sn element of injecting, just can make the Sn atom in lattice can not assemble the sediment that forms Sn, keep the metastable state of GeSn alloy and fractional condensation does not occur, can obtain like this thinner thickness, the good GeSn layer of quality, have advantages of simple, cost is low.And in existing GeSn formation method, MBE method needs expensive equipment and needs ultra high vacuum, complex process and cost are high; CVD method is also not exclusively ripe, because growth temperature is high, thus often there is the fractional condensation of Sn element in metastable GeSn, thus the crystal mass of GeSn layer affected, and its equipment and comparatively costliness of source of the gas, thereby cost is also higher.
It should be noted that, in injection technology process, original Ge fin structure can only have surface part to be changed to GeSn layer, also can all be changed to GeSn layer.Particularly, in the time that the leakage of the source of FinFET needs to form thicker GeSn layer, can inject the ion or the plasma that contain Sn element.Ion and energy of plasma are high, can inject and reach certain depth.In the time that the leakage of the source of FinFET needs to form thinner GeSn layer, not only inject ion or plasma and can form GeSn layer, the molecule that injects Sn atom or contain Sn element also can form GeSn layer.
In an example of the present invention, the method of injecting can adopt Implantation, that is: incide in Ge layer and go thering is ion beam certain energy, that contain Sn element (comprising Sn ion or the plasma containing Sn element), and rest in Ge layer, make Ge layer segment or be all converted to GeSn alloy.The degree of depth that changes injection by changing the energy of ion beam, ion beam energy is higher, injects darker.In injection process, can adopt the voltage of variation to obtain the ion beam energy of variation, thereby Sn element is distributed within the specific limits comparatively equably.Particularly, except conventional Implantation, Implantation also comprises that plasma source Implantation and plasma immersion ion inject, and plasma based ion is injected.In the time that plasma based ion is injected, Ge layer is buried in the plasma that contains Sn element, accelerated under electric field action containing the cation of Sn element, and directive Ge layer surface is also injected in Ge layer.Inject by plasma based ion, can be easy to the implantation dosage that reaches very high, be easy to the GeSn layer of the Sn content that obtains 1%~20%, highly efficient in productivity, cost is also very low, and is subject to the impact of surface configuration little, and nonplanar Ge surface also can be realized equably and being injected.Wherein, plasma immersion ion is injected to a kind of preferred injection mode, because injecting, plasma immersion ion is subject to the impact of substrate shape little, inject more even, on this nonplanar structure of Ge fin structure, inject and can obtain the effect that each position is comparatively evenly injected, make whole source-drain area comparatively be formed uniformly GeSn film, thereby can promote to amplitude peak the electric property of raceway groove.Implantation can form thicker GeSn layer, and Implantation Energy is higher, and GeSn layer is thicker.Preferably, the thickness of GeSn layer is 0.5-100nm.
In an example of the present invention, the method for injection can adopt magnetron sputtering.When magnetron sputtering, Ar ion accelerates to fly to negative electrode Sn target or the target containing Sn under electric field action, and with high-energy bombardment target surface, makes target generation sputter.Sputtering particle is mainly atom, also has a small amount of ion.By adjusting voltage of electric field, the technological parameters such as vacuum degree, make sputtering particle have higher energy, and with higher speed directive Ge layer, part particle can be injected in Ge layer and form metastable GeSn alloy.Alternatively, in the process of utilizing magnetron sputtering to inject to Ge layer, on substrate, load back bias voltage, such as-40~-120V, can make like this part particle sputtering there is more high-energy, be conducive to particle and be injected into the more depths on Ge top layer, for example, can be deep to some nanometers.It should be noted that, the material sputtering during due to magnetron sputtering is more, conventionally can after forming GeSn layer, further form Sn film.Therefore after magnetron sputtering, also need to remove the Sn film that magnetron sputtering forms on GeSn layer.For example, can utilize and GeSn and Sn are had to high corrosion select the solution of ratio to clean to remove Sn film and expose GeSn layer.Common cleaning solution comprises watery hydrochloric acid, dilute sulfuric acid, rare nitric acid.The thickness of the GeSn layer remaining after cleaning is 0.5-20nm, and preferably, this GeSn layer thickness is 0.5-10nm.
In an example of the present invention, in injection technology, heating-up temperature can be controlled between 100-600 ℃, preferably 150-450 ℃.The film quality obtaining under this temperature range is better.Temperature is too low, injects the damage that brings and can not repair, GeSn layer second-rate; Excess Temperature, will spread seriously the Sn in GeSn layer, and the solid solubility of Sn in Ge very low (being atomic percent 0.3% under equilibrium state), the Sn in GeSn layer easily separates out and forms Sn sediment.
In an example of the present invention, after forming GeSn layer, can also strengthen this GeSn layer by annealing in process.The temperature range of annealing is 100-600 ℃, preferably 150-450 ℃.Temperature is too low, injects the damage that brings and can not repair, GeSn layer second-rate; Excess Temperature, will the Sn in GeSn layer be spread seriously, and the solid solubility of Sn in Ge be very low, and the Sn in GeSn easily separates out and forms Sn sediment.It is pointed out that if adopt first grid technique, gate medium wherein may not bear 450 ℃ of above high temperature, and now, the heating-up temperature in injection technology and annealing in process temperature can be controlled at below 400 ℃.
In an example of the present invention, GeSn layer is strain GeSn layer.The thickness of strain GeSn layer is 0.5-100nm.Be preferably 10-40nm.In strain GeSn layer, the atomic percentage conc of Sn is less than 20%.It should be noted that, in the GeSn layer of strain, Sn content is higher completely, and it answers variation larger, and correspondingly its thickness should be reduced to below the critical thickness of relaxation, could keep complete strain.In strain GeSn layer, Sn content is higher, and its critical thickness is thinner.In the time that Sn content is 10%, the variation of answering of the GeSn film of the upper complete strain of Ge is about 1.5%, the now about 30nm of the critical thickness of strain GeSn layer, that is now the GeSn thickness of FinFET source-drain area should not exceed 30nm; And in the time that Sn content is 5%, it answers variation approximately 0.8%, more than its critical thickness can reach 100nm, illustrate that now the GeSn thickness of FinFET source-drain area can reach 100nm and GeSn layer still keeps complete strain.
Need to further illustrate, in the time that GeSn layer is strain GeSn layer, in injection technology, in heating-up temperature and annealing process, the height of annealing temperature need to mate with the material character of strain GeSn layer.The strain GeSn layer that the atomic percentage conc that for example needs Sn in common FinFET device is 3-8%, and the GeSn layer that Sn atomic percentage conc is 8% is stable substantially at 450 ℃, thus now in injection technology in heating-up temperature and annealing process annealing temperature need to be no more than 450 ℃.
