Abstract

The invention provides a method for improving the uniformity of large-size silicon wafer device performance. After a first side wall is formed, due to the reasons mentioned in the prior art, the thicknesses of gate dielectric layers are different in different areas, chemical acid liquor is adopted to completely remove the gate dielectric layers on the two sides of a gate electrode, and then an in-situ moisture growth technology is used for forming a gate dielectric layer with the consistent thickness again on the surface of a semiconductor substrate. Due to the fact that the gate dielectric layer formed through the in-situ moisture growth technology is consistent in thickness in different density areas, the influence of the gate dielectric layers of different thicknesses on the follow-up light doping drain technology injection can be avoided, and then the electric property uniformity of the formed device can be ensured.

Description

Improve the inhomogeneity method of large-sized silicon wafers device performance
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of semiconductor manufacture, relate in particular to a kind of inhomogeneity method of large-sized silicon wafers device performance that improves.
Background technology
In current semi-conductor industry, 12 inches of silicon chip manufacturing process have become main flow, and 18 inches of silicon chip manufactures are simultaneously also in positive development.In large-sized silicon wafers is manufactured, the uniformity of zones of different device performance is one and considers silicon chip and be worth important index.Due to the density difference of zones of different device, for example the device density in SRAM region is much larger than the device density of WAT test zone, and different components density just causes uniformity to be difficult to control.
In fabrication of semiconductor device, be subject to the restriction of the uniformity of processing performance own, there is notable difference in the cmos device electric property of the same design of large-sized silicon wafers zones of different.This species diversity will cause the electrical health degree of full wafer silicon chip entirety to decline, and also can exert an influence to the yield of silicon chip central area and fringe region simultaneously, has directly reduced the economic worth of finished product silicon chip.Semiconductor manufacture at present, improving the electrical uniformity of silicon chip is mainly to rely on the manufacture uniformity that promotes a certain technique so as to improving the electrical uniformity of silicon chip.
