In the present embodiment, Second Type doping is carried out to the top of fin 204, the step forming fuse 216 is second Region Ι Ι is carried out, with the described fin formula field effect transistor of first area Ι in source, drain electrode in doping step be same step Suddenly.Specific as follows:
Continuing with reference to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, step S12 in execution Fig. 2, grid are formed on the fin 204 of first area Ι Pole structure 205, the top of fin 204 and side wall described in described grid structure 205 covering part.
In the present embodiment, described grid structure 205 includes gate dielectric layer 206 and is formed at the grid above gate dielectric layer 206 Pole 207.The material of gate dielectric layer 206 is high-k gate dielectric layer, and the material of high-k gate dielectric layer is HfO2、Al2O3、ZrO2、HfSiO、 HfSiON, HfTaO and HfZrO.Grid 207 is dummy grid, and the material of dummy grid is polysilicon.
Referring next to Fig. 5, execute step S13 in Fig. 2, formation side wall 208 around grid structure 205, with side wall 208 is the fin 204 of mask etching first area Ι, forms groove 209, second area Ι Ι fin in the fin of side wall 208 both sides The groove 209 in portion and the groove 209 of first area Ι are formed in same etch step, the fin of first area Ι and second area Ι Ι After portion 204 forms described groove 209, filling semiconductor material 210 in described groove 209.
In the present embodiment, the type of the fin formula field effect transistor being subsequently formed is p-type, and this groove is preferably sigma type Groove, in the range of effective dimensions, the sharp corner of sigma type groove, closer to channel region, is conducive to subsequently in channel region shape Become larger compression, to improve the carrier mobility of channel region, improve the property of the fin formula field effect transistor being subsequently formed Energy.In other embodiments, this groove can also be other shapes, such as rectangle.After forming sigma type groove, in sigma type Filling semiconductor material 210 in groove, in the present embodiment, semi-conducting material is germanium silicon material.Concrete formation process is this area Technical staff knows technology, will not be described here.
Certainly, in other embodiments, when the type of the fin formula field effect transistor being subsequently formed is N-type, this groove Preferably U-shaped groove, in the range of effective dimensions, U-shaped groove is conducive to subsequently forming larger tension in channel region, to carry The carrier mobility of high channel region, improves the performance of the fin formula field effect transistor being subsequently formed.After forming U-shaped groove, in U In type groove, the semi-conducting material of filling is carborundum.
It should be noted that with continued reference to Fig. 5, in the present embodiment, forming groove 209 in the fin 204 of first area Ι Meanwhile, the fin 204 in second area Ι Ι also forms groove 209.The position of the fin 204 in second area Ι Ι for the groove 209 with The position of this fin in first area Ι for the groove 209 is identical.The shape of second area Ι Ι groove 209, packing material and the firstth area The shape of groove 209 of domain Ι, packing material are identical.Formed in groove 209 and groove 209 in the fin 204 of second area Ι Ι Semi-conducting material so that the contact between the follow-up conductive plunger in the fuse-wires structure that second area Ι Ι is formed and fuse Resistance reduces.Further, when the groove 209 being formed in second area Ι Ι fin 204 is sigma type or when U-shaped, can drop Contact resistance between the conductive plunger of low fuse-wires structure and fuse.Further, in second area Ι Ι with first area Ι Inside form groove 209 and its interior semi-conducting material simultaneously, the now groove structure similarity highest in this two regions, thus can So that the contact resistance between conductive plunger in second area Ι Ι and fuse is preferably minimized.
In other embodiments, groove can be formed in the fin of first area and second area by substep.
In other embodiments it is also possible to not form described groove in the fin of second area.
With reference to Fig. 6, step S14 in execution Fig. 2, on semi-conducting material 210 surface of first area Ι and second area Ι Ι Form silicon layer 211(Si Cap).
The concrete grammar forming described silicon layer 211 knows technology for those skilled in the art, will not be described here.First Semi-conducting material 210 surface of region I and second area II forms silicon layer 211, and this silicon layer 211 can prevent subsequently in semiconductor Second Type doping diffusion in material 210, and then can ensure that source electrode, the resistance of drain electrode being subsequently formed in the I of first area Rate is low, but also can ensure that the semi-conducting material 210 subsequently carrying out Second Type doping in second area II resistivity low.
Then, with reference to Fig. 7, execute step S15 in Fig. 2, after forming silicon layer 211, to first area Ι and second area Ι Ι Fin 204 in semi-conducting material 210, the silicon layer 211 on semi-conducting material 210 surface and second area Ι Ι fin top Carry out Second Type doping, form doped region 214, described Second Type is contrary with the first kind, and the doping of described Second Type Dopant dose be more than the first kind doping dopant dose.
This Second Type doping step forms doped region 214, this Second Type doping step in the fin 204 of second area Ι Ι The rapid source electrode 212 forming fin formula field effect transistor in the Ι of first area and drain electrode 213.In second area Ι Ι, Second Type is mixed The contrary meeting that is to say, that Second Type doping and the first kind are adulterated of miscellaneous and original in fin 204 first kind doping type Form P-N junction, this P-N junction has buffer action to fuse.
The forming step of the P-N junction in the present embodiment is also the formation of the fin formula field effect transistor colonizing in first area Among step, therefore, almost nil cost.And, the present embodiment just can form the isolation to fuse simply by doping, Therefore, method is simple.In addition, also being started using the method that the P-N junction on fin in the second area is isolated to fuse Directly form the precedent of fuse on the active area.Reason is as follows:Fuse of the prior art be can not be formed directly into active In area, active area belongs to large-area semiconductor structure, the especially very big semiconductor structure of width, even if having on fuse There is larger immediate current, the substantial amounts of heat that this electric current produces also can shed from large-area active area, therefore, existing skill In art, need insulating barrier and fleet plough groove isolation structure to be provided below in fuse.And the P-N junction below the fuse of the present invention is just permissible The technique realizing forming fuse on the active area.
With reference to Fig. 8, step S16 in execution Fig. 2, after forming doped region 214, first area Ι's and second area Ι Ι Silicon layer 211, on the doped region 214 at the fin top of second area Ι Ι formed metal silicide layer 215.Wherein, on silicon layer Metal silicide layer 215 can reduce the contact resistance between silicon layer 211 and the conductive plunger being subsequently formed.Need explanation It is that metal silicide layer 215, then this metal silicide layer 215 are formed on the doped region 214 at the fin top of second area Ι Ι Collectively form fuse 216 with the doped region 214 at the fin top of second area Ι Ι, when subsequent technique formed anode and negative electrode it Between when there is larger immediate current, fuse 216 has two kinds by the situation that low resistance state changes into high-impedance state:(1)Metal silicide The resistivity of layer 215 is less than doped region 214, and therefore, between anode and negative electrode, larger immediate current can be preferentially from metal silication Flow through in 215 layers of nitride layer, so that the inside of metal silicide layer 215 occurs electromigration(Electromigration, EM) Phenomenon that is to say, that the metal ion great majority in metal silicide layer 215 all migrate to negative electrode or anode so that The inside of metal silicide layer 215 produces cavity so that the resistance of metal silicide layer 215 increases considerably, and then makes molten The resistance of silk 216 increases considerably, and changes into high-impedance state by low resistance state.(2)Larger immediate current between anode and negative electrode Substantial amounts of heat energy can be produced, metal silicide layer 215 can be fused together with doped region 214 by this substantial amounts of heat energy, so that The resistance of fuse 216 increases considerably, and changes into high-impedance state by low resistance state.Certainly, in other embodiments, in second area Ι Ι The doped region 214 at fin top on can not also form metal silicide layer 215, also can implement the present invention.Fuse now It is only doped region 214, when there is larger immediate current between the anode that subsequent technique is formed and negative electrode, in doped region 214 Impurity also can migrate, migrate to male or female, thus the resistance of doped region 214 can be made to increase considerably, High-impedance state is changed into by low resistance state.
In other embodiment, the semiconductor material surface in the groove of first area and second area forms silicon layer(Si Cap)While, silicon layer can also be formed in the upper surface of the fin of second area.Therefore, the fin top of second area is entered While the doping of row Second Type forms doped region, the silicon layer that also upper surface of the fin of second area can be formed carries out second Type is adulterated, and forms fuse together.The silicon layer that fuse includes being formed in second area fin upper surface has following benefit:Can in case Only the Second Type doping diffusion at the fin top of second area is so that the Second Type doping at the fin top of second area Distribution is narrow, thus reducing the resistivity of the doped region at fin top of second area so that the condition of fuse failure is more held Easy to control, and then improve the utility ratio of fuse.When the fuse at the fin top in second area has a plurality of, above-mentioned benefit meeting Become apparent from.
In other embodiments, when the upper surface in the fin of second area has silicon layer, on the fin of second area Metal silicide layer be formed on silicon layer.
Then, with reference to Fig. 9, execute step S17 in Fig. 2, form interlayer dielectric layer 217, cover described fuse 216.
In the present embodiment, form interlayer dielectric layer 217, cover Semiconductor substrate, fleet plough groove isolation structure 203, the firstth area Metal silicide layer 215 on domain Ι and second area Ι Ι fin, the grid structure 205 in the Ι of first area and side wall 208.So Afterwards, interlayer dielectric layer 217 higher than grid structure is removed using the method for chemically mechanical polishing so that interlayer dielectric layer 217 Surface is equal with the surface of grid structure 205.
It should be noted that when fuse 216 has larger immediate current, substantial amounts of heat, inter-level dielectric can be produced Layer 217 covering fuse 216 can make this heat cannot Quick diffusing go out, and is more beneficial for the fusing of fuse 216.
In the present embodiment, with reference to Fig. 4, in grid structure 205, grid 207 is dummy grid, continues with reference to reference 9 and Figure 10, After forming interlayer dielectric layer 217, need to remove the grid 207 in the Ι of first area, be internally formed grid in interlayer dielectric layer 217 Pole groove 218, high-k gate dielectric layer is exposed in the bottom of gate recess 218.With reference to Figure 11, form metal gate in gate recess 218 Pole 219.Remove grid 207 and form that the technique of metal gates 219 broadly falls into those skilled in the art know technology, here is not Repeat again.
With reference to Figure 12, in the present embodiment, after forming metal gates 219, interlayer is continuously formed on interlayer dielectric layer 217 and is situated between Matter layer 220.
Then, with continued reference to Figure 12, execute step S18 in Fig. 2, in described interlayer dielectric layer 217, described fuse 216 two ends form conductive plunger 221 respectively.
Fin field in the present embodiment, in the forming step of the conductive plunger at fuse two ends being subsequently formed and first area The forming step of the conductive plunger on source electrode 212 and drain electrode 213 in effect transistor is same step.Specifically include:
Then, the surface in interlayer dielectric layer 220 forms patterned mask layer(Not shown), patterned covered with described Film layer is mask, etches described interlayer dielectric layer 217 and 220, forms several openings in interlayer dielectric layer 217 and 220, First area Ι, the metal silicide layer 215 in described source electrode 212 and drain electrode 213 is exposed in the bottom of this opening;In second area Ι Ι, the metal silicide layer 215 at described fuse 216 two ends is exposed in the bottom of this opening.After forming opening, using conductive layer filling Described opening, forms conductive plunger 221, wherein conductive layer is metal, can be metallic copper or tungsten in the present embodiment.
In other embodiments, after the top of the fin of second area is carried out with Second Type doping formation doped region, can Inter-level dielectric is formed with the surface of the directly silicon layer on Semiconductor substrate, semi-conducting material, grid structure, side wall and doped region Layer, after forming interlayer dielectric layer, removes dummy grid, forms metal gates in high-k gate dielectric layer surface, then, in inter-level dielectric Layer be internally formed opening, the silicon layer of semiconductor material surface is exposed in the bottom of described opening, then in the silicon layer of open bottom Upper formation metal silicide layer, after forming metal silicide layer, filling opening forms conductive plunger.It should be noted that this is real Apply example and cannot form metal silicide layer on doped region, or, when silicon layer is had on doped region, also cannot on silicon layer shape Become metal silicide layer.Therefore, this doped region is fuse.
The present invention provide not only a kind of method forming electric fuse structure on fin, to realize on the semiconductor device Form the diversity of electric fuse structure method, and the step that is integrally formed of the electric fuse structure in this method is to colonize in together Among the forming step of fin formula field effect transistor in one Semiconductor substrate, therefore, the method for the present invention simple and Process costs are almost nil.
Second embodiment
In the present invention, the technique of the fin formula field effect transistor in the Ι of first area is divided into high-k gate dielectric layer in front formation work Skill(HK First)With high-k gate dielectric layer in rear formation process(HK Last).Electric fuse structure in first embodiment is in height K gate dielectric layer is formed during front formation process.Electric fuse structure in second embodiment is rear in high-k gate dielectric layer Formed during formation process.
With reference to Figure 13 and Figure 14, the difference with first embodiment is:
(1)With reference to Figure 13, grid structure 305 is formed on the fin 304 of the first area Ι of Semiconductor substrate 300.Grid Structure 305 includes gate dielectric layer 306 and is formed at the grid 307 above gate dielectric layer 306.Wherein, the material of gate dielectric layer 306 For silica, grid 307 remains as dummy grid.When removal dummy grid forms pseudo- grid recess, also remove gate dielectric layer 306.
(2)With reference to Figure 14, in high-k gate dielectric layer in rear formation process, the high-k gate dielectric layer 314 of formation covers grid The bottom of groove and side wall.

Reason is as follows:If forming high-k gate dielectric layer, moving back in high-k gate dielectric layer formation process after forming metal silicide layer The resistance of the metal silicide layer being formed before can be increased considerably by ignition technique, thus destroying the performance of metal silicide layer. In a second embodiment, in order to form high-k gate dielectric layer 314 and metal gates 315, subsequent technique has formation interlayer dielectric layer 317 and 318 step, the silicon layer 311 that this interlayer dielectric layer 317 and 318 covers in first area Ι and second area Ι Ι is worked as in layer Between when forming the opening exposing silicon layer 311 in dielectric layer 317 and 318, metal silicide layer 320 could be formed in this opening, Then form conductive plunger 321 with constitutive promoter.Therefore, in high-k gate dielectric layer in rear formation process it is impossible to doping Form metal silicide in area 316, or, when there is silicon layer 311 on doped region 316, gold also cannot be formed on silicon layer 311 Belong to silicide.Therefore, this doped region 316 is fuse.
It should be noted that the formation process of the fuse-wires structure of the present invention is applicable not only to rear grid formation process, but also It is applied to front grid technique.
