Embodiment
In prior art, be all form amorphous semiconductor material under the high temperature conditions, thus the development need of semiconductor technology cannot be met.
Prior art, when forming metal silicide, comprises the following steps:
Shown in figure 1, silicon substrate 60 is first provided, described silicon substrate 60 comprises source region 61 and drain region 62, described silicon substrate 60 comprises grid structure, and described grid structure comprises: be positioned at the gate dielectric layer 81 on silicon substrate 60, the metal gate electrode 82 be positioned on gate dielectric layer 81, the side wall 83 be positioned on the silicon substrate 60 of gate dielectric layer 81 and metal gate electrode 82 both sides.
Continue with reference to shown in figure 1, source region 61 is formed metal level 71, and form metal level 72 on drain region 62.
Then, first time annealing in process process is carried out, with the transition state product making metal level 71 and 72 change high resistant into.
Then, carry out second time annealing in process, thus make the transition state product of high resistant change the metal silicide of low-resistance into.
Because the temperature of second time annealing in process will far above the temperature of first time annealing in process, thus when carrying out second time annealing in process, metal material in metal level 71 and 72 (as arrow direction in Fig. 1) can corrode the silicon materials be positioned at below transistor side wall 83 downwards, and can enter in the channel region under grid structure, finally can cause transistor short circuit, semiconductor device yield is declined to a great extent.
Inventor finds through research: in the process forming metal silicide, after carrying out first time annealing in process and before carrying out second time annealing in process, first can form one deck amorphous semiconductor material (as: amorphous silicon layer) on the metal layer, potential energy due to amorphous semiconductor material is less than the potential energy of metal level, and the compactness of amorphous semiconductor material is poor, thus when carrying out second time annealing in process, metal material can remove the amorphous semiconductor material corroded above it, avoid erosion silicon substrate, finally greatly can improve the yield of semiconductor device.
When adopting the method for prior art to form amorphous semiconductor material on the metal layer, owing to being hot conditions, its temperature range is little with the temperature difference of second time annealing in process, therefore metal material will be made to diffuse in silicon substrate in the process forming amorphous semiconductor material.Based on this, be necessary to reduce the temperature forming amorphous semiconductor material, when making to form amorphous semiconductor material on the metal layer, metal material can not diffuse in silicon substrate.
Inventor finds after further research, when forming amorphous semiconductor material, the Ultraviolet radiation process that can be less than or equal to 400 DEG C by temperature replaces high-temperature heat treatment of the prior art, in this temperature range, metal material can not spread in silicon substrate, and the process namely forming amorphous semiconductor material does not all affect metal level and silicon substrate, finally when second time annealing in process, metal material changes dispersal direction, avoids the impact on silicon substrate.

It should be noted that, when gate electrode is polysilicon, when etching nickel material, also needing to retain the nickel material be positioned on gate electrode simultaneously.
Then, carry out first time annealing in process, described first time the temperature of annealing in process be more than or equal to 200 DEG C and be less than or equal to 400 DEG C.
The time of annealing in process described first time can be more than or equal to 10s and be less than or equal to 20s.
Described first time, the thermal creep stress of annealing in process was lower, only have the part metal level 310a adjacent with the source region 110 and part metal level 320a adjacent with drain region 120 and pasc reaction to define metal silicide after making annealing, and still have part metals to fail to react with silicon topmost.In addition, because the temperature selected is lower, the metal silicide now produced is a kind of transition state product of high resistant, as: Ni 2si, GoSi etc.
Due to first time, the temperature of annealing in process is lower, and therefore metal level 310a and metal level 320 can not corrode the silicon materials be positioned at below transistor side wall 230, and can not enter in the channel region under grid structure.
Then, with reference to shown in Figure 11, after first time annealing in process, wet-etching technology can be adopted to remove metal level 310a and 320a do not reacted with silicon, thus only leave metal silicide 310b and 320b of high resistant.
Continue, with reference to shown in Figure 11, metal silicide 310b and 320b of high resistant and the surface of grid structure to form amorphous semiconductor material 400.
Described amorphous semiconductor material 400 needs to be formed under low temperature environment (being less than or equal to 400 DEG C).Amorphous semiconductor material 400 described in the present embodiment is amorphous silicon, and it specifically can adopt the method for above-described embodiment to be formed, and now metal silicide 310b and 320b of high resistant and grid structure are as described semiconductor base, do not repeat them here.
The thickness of described amorphous semiconductor material 400 can be more than or equal to 10 dusts and be less than or equal to 200 dusts, as: 10 dusts, 50 dusts, 100 dusts, 150 dusts or 200 dusts.
Owing to only needing to form metal silicide in the present embodiment on source region 110 and drain region 120, the amorphous semiconductor material 400 therefore in the present embodiment can only be positioned on metal level 310a and metal level 320a.But when gate electrode 230 also needing form metal silicide, then amorphous semiconductor material 400 also needs to be positioned on the metal level on gate electrode 230 simultaneously.
Because the temperature now forming amorphous semiconductor material 400 is lower, the metal in metal silicide 310b and 320b of therefore high resistant can not spread downwards.
Then, shown in reference Figure 12, in order to metal silicide 310b and 320b of the high resistant formed after first time annealing in process being converted into metal silicide 310c and 320c of low-resistance, carry out second time annealing in process, the temperature of described second time annealing in process is more than or equal to 400 DEG C and is less than or equal to 700 DEG C.
The time of described second time annealing in process can be more than or equal to 10s and be less than or equal to 20s.
The temperature of described second time annealing in process is greater than the temperature of first time annealing in process, thus can form metal silicide 310c and 320c of low-resistance, as: GoSi 2, NiSi etc., the electrical contact quality of formation is better.
Although the temperature of second time annealing in process is higher, metal can spread further in second time annealing in process, but owing to being now positioned at the potential energy of potential energy much smaller than the metal silicide of high resistant of the amorphous semiconductor material 400 on metal silicide 310b and 320b of high resistant, and its compactness is poor, then potential energy is larger for the Semiconductor substrate 100 of amorphous silicon material, and quality is tightr, therefore now the dispersal direction of metal can be upwards (as shown in arrow in Figure 11), namely spread from the place that potential energy is high to the place that potential energy is low, namely diffuse in amorphous semiconductor material 400, and the silicon materials be positioned at below transistor side wall 230 can not be corroded, and can not enter in the channel region under grid structure, metal material finally can be suppressed the erosion of Semiconductor substrate 100, improve the yield of semiconductor device.
Then, continue, with reference to shown in Figure 12, to remove the amorphous semiconductor material 400 in Figure 11, thus on source region 110, form the metal silicide 310c of low-resistance, and on drain region 120, form the metal silicide 320c of low-resistance.
Particularly, wet etching method can be adopted to remove described amorphous semiconductor material 400.Amorphous semiconductor material 400 described in the present embodiment is amorphous silicon, thus can adopt the one in TMAH and KOH solution or combination as wet etching solution to remove described amorphous silicon.
The present embodiment is between twice annealing process, add the step forming amorphous semiconductor material 400 under cryogenic, thus can when second time annealing in process, metal material can be made to diffuse in amorphous semiconductor material 400 instead of diffuse to source region 110 and drain region 120, metal material finally can be suppressed the erosion of Semiconductor substrate 100, improve the yield of semiconductor device.
Although the present invention discloses as above, the present invention is not 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, and therefore protection scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with claim limited range.
