Description

Form the method for semiconductor device
The present invention relates to form a kind of method of semiconductor device, particularly make a kind of method of film-insulated grid field effect transistor.Can on glassy dielectric substrate, form thin-film transistor on the substrate on the monocrystalline silicon Semiconductor substrate and similarly.
Recently, have in the insulated-gate semiconductor device of film active layer (active area) in research.Make earnest efforts to study a kind of thin-film insulated gate transistor that is called thin-film transistor especially.It is defined as non-crystalline silicon tft, crystalline silicon TFT according to used semi-conductive material crystallization condition.
Crystalline semiconductor is compared with non-crystalline semiconductor, has bigger field mobility and high speed operation.NMOS TFT can not only be made by crystalline silicon, also PMOSTFT can be made.Owing to can form cmos circuit, make TFT so make earnest efforts the research and utilization crystalline silicon now.
See by the achievement that obtains at present, in forming this insulated gate device, make grid insulating film with the silicon thermal oxidation film and can obtain only characteristic.Yet will obtain thermal oxide film needs under about 1000 ℃ film to be heated.Backing material used under of this sort temperature is restricted.In the formation of similar this TFT, adopt sputtering method and various chemical vapor deposition method (CVD) to form insulation film.
Do not need such high temperature owing to form this insulation film, therefore unrestricted to backing material.On the other hand, the problem of existence is that this insulation film made from vapor deposition method has high interface state density and many defectives that resembles this class of pin hole.Remedying and, not being to take, but mainly adopting only deposition conditions to solve this class defective in the thin film deposition reprocessing to the improvement of performance.
Recently, researcher's interest is to improve the exhausted grid field effect transistor (TFT) of film.For example, in the flat 4-38637 of another Japanese patent application NO. of flat 4-30220 of Japanese patent application NO. or same applicant, recommended, used Al, Ti, Cr, Ta, or silicon makes gate electrode, and with their outer surface of sull covering grid electrode.Make mask with anodised gate electrode, with the source region and the drain region of ion implantation formation device, like this, source region and drain region are positioned at from the laying backward of gate electrode edge, make and form so-called off-set construction between them.Then laser annealing being carried out in the source region of device and drain region handles and makes its recrystallization.
Transistor AND gate with this off-set construction has with silicon, tantalum or chromium makes gate electrode and those transistors of not having an off-set construction are compared, and has good characteristic.Yet it is not so high using the repeatability in this case of off-set construction.The reason of low repeatability is, high voltage is added to makes it on the gate electrode in the anodised process, semiconductor region also is under the high electric field, thereby many trap energy level attitudes in semiconductor, have been produced, although will not be added on the semiconductor region in the electric field reality, yet the high-tension influence owing to being added on the gate electrode has also produced one 20 to 150V film voltage on semiconductor.
With reference now to the Fig. 1 (A) that shows existing transistor cutaway view, the problem that exists is described.Transistor comprises glass substrate 101, the semiconductive thin film 102 that on glass substrate 101, forms, the gate electrode 104 that on semiconductive thin film 102, forms and with gate electrode 104 anodic oxidations of aluminum aluminum oxide film 105 with covering grid electrode 104 by gate insulating film 103.Anodic oxidation is achieved in that the gate electrode 104 to being in the electrolyte adds a high positive voltage, and electrolyte is by a suitable electrode grounding.At first, anodic oxidation just begun the electric field that will be produced in electrolyte mainly around gate electrode.In this stage, the voltage that is connected in parallel on the semiconductive thin film 102 is not so high, and when the oxide thickness thickening, electric field concentrates on the oxide film, thereby the voltage that is connected in parallel on the grid insulating film increases, and makes electronics inject the grid insulating film 106 below gate electrode 104 just.
When the described method of flat 4-30220 of Japanese patent application NO. or the flat 4-38637 of NO. of pressing formed oxide-film, the thickness of oxide-film 105 for example was 300 to 400nm.The thickness of gate insulating film 103 for example is 100nm.In this case, suppose that the resistivity of silica and the resistivity of aluminium oxide are equal to each other, even the semiconductor region 102 of supposition below grid insulating film 103 is intrinsics, and has certain resistivity, thereby produced voltage drop thereon, made the electric field in the grid insulating film 103 surpass the voltage drop that is connected in parallel on the aluminum oxide film 105.Because this high electric field can not continue anodization under the situation of not damaging grid insulating film 103.
In addition, for preventing undesirable influence to the glass substrate under the semiconductive thin film 102, the bottoming insulation film of shape one deck between glass substrate 101 and semiconductive thin film 102 as the silicon oxide film, must pay special attention to the silicon oxide film of bottoming and the structure of semiconductive thin film, for example, must form silicon oxide film in order not contain removable ion.Bigger harm is the existence of capturing attitude.With clean removable ion is limited to a certain degree.But, can not solve the problem relevant with capturing attitude at all.Because this problem is that the total restriction to technology causes.Silicon oxide film 103 and the interface state density between following semiconductor layer 102 are the key factors of decision transistor characteristic.Carrying out on the single crystal semiconductor substrate under the situation of MOS technology, single crystal semiconductor and the interface state density between the grid oxidation film that thermal oxidation method on the semiconductor forms are 10 10Cm -2The order of magnitude.On the other hand, under the situation of thin-film transistor,, corresponding semiconductor is deposited on the oxide film that forms with plasma CVD, atmospheric pressure CVD or low pressure chemical vapor deposition method, so interface state density is up to 10 because being form with polysilicon 12Cm -2Or it is higher.The too high transistor that causes of this interface state density can not be practical.That is to say,, make and capture some charge carriers at the interface, and make the conduction type of semiconductor region and gate voltage irrelevant, the leakage conductance electric current is increased if interphase density is so high.Therefore, for grid insulating film, must constitute and have desired high-quality bottoming silicon oxide film, using sputtering method, or ecr plasma CVD method forms under the situation of silicon oxide film, can not carry out thermal oxidation with middle temperature or low temperature, interface state density is than the high order of magnitude of interface state density with the thermal oxidation situation, thereby similar problem is inevitable.
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of method of making the film-insulated grid field effect transistor of improvement.
Another object of the present invention provides a kind of method of film-insulated grid field effect transistor of the manufacturing improvement with high qualification rate.
Further purpose of the present invention provides the method for film-insulated grid field effect transistor that a kind of manufacturing has the improvement of highly reliable grid insulating film.
Of the present invention more further purpose provide a kind of method of making the film-insulated field-effect transistor of the improvement that trapped electron and lattice defect got rid of from grid insulating film.
Other purposes of the present invention, the advantage and the new feature of invention will be described hereinafter, and the those of ordinary skill of the industry is after through checking, and the part that has can become apparent or by practice of the present invention being understood the purpose and the advantage of invention.Purpose of the present invention can by means of and realize in conjunction with the content that particularly points out in the appending claims.
For realizing above-mentioned purpose of the present invention and other purposes, here it is done specifically and widely to describe, a kind of method of making isolated-gate field effect transistor (IGFET) comprises operation: form semiconductive thin film on a dielectric substrate, on said semiconductor, form grid insulating film, on said gate insulating film, form gate electrode, said grid insulating film is between semiconductor film and gate electrode, be outer surface with the oxide film covering grid electrode of gate electrode, gate electrode is carried out anodic oxidation, and add a negative voltage for said gate electrode with respect to semiconductive thin film.As hereinafter being described in detail, adding the negative electricity pressure energy and eliminate effectively and in anodic oxidation, add lattice defect and the interfacial state that positive voltage causes.
With reference now to showing that institute's making alive concerns on band structure and the gate electrode Fig. 1 (B) illustrates basic mechanism of the present invention to 1 (E).The voltage level of gate electrode is very high in the anode oxidation process, so energy level is very low, makes it produce a high electric field that is connected in parallel on the grid insulating film, shown in Fig. 1 (B).Because high electric field makes electronics and grid insulating film collision, produces lattice defect, and in grid insulating film, special being captured at the interface between semiconductor region and gate insulating film.When gate insulating film was made with silica, the generation of capturing with lattice defect of electronics was tangible.
Even being removed back electron capture and lattice defect from gate electrode, high voltage still keeps, shown in Fig. 1 (C).Transistorized channel characteristic is influenced by trapped electron mainly.For example, if device is the P-channel transistor, semiconductor region just below grid insulating film, that is to say that channel region is transformed into P-type district and allows drain circuit to pass through thus.If device is the N-channel transistor, threshold voltage is to positive excursion.
According to the present invention, be parallel on the grid insulating film for producing a reversed electric field, after anodization, add a negative voltage to gate electrode.Because the electronics that the effect of negative voltage makes in the grid insulating film and captured is disengaged, shown in Fig. 1 (D).Meanwhile, the hole of being introduced by negative voltage is cancelled lattice defect.According to said method, band structure is recovered normal condition after removing negative voltage, shown in Fig. 1 (E).The work that adds negative voltage after the anodic oxidation can be repeated several times if desired.Become under the situation about also can remedy basically before serious adding damage that positive voltage causes for semiconductor region and grid insulating film, add negative voltage and can eliminate this damage.
Adding negative voltage can carry out in the electrolyte that the gate electrode anodic oxidation is used.In this case, semiconductor region is electrically connected with negative electrode fully by electrolyte, finishes the special wiring required with being connected of semiconductor region because of not forming at needs.In addition, adding negative voltage can carry out after substrate is removed from electrolyte.Yet, under the situation that forms a plurality of semiconductor regions that separate on the substrate, in adding the process of negative voltage, must semiconductor region integrally be connected on the positive level with respect to gate electrode with the i.e. wiring of a three-dimensional of special jockey.In addition, from production cost and qualification rate viewpoint, it is desirable adding negative voltage in electrolyte.And if add negative voltage to gate electrode in electrolyte, then hydrogen ion can enter in semiconductor region and the grid insulating film.For example, connect dangling bonds to reduce lattice defect with hydrogen ion.
By the preferred embodiments of the present invention, because gate electrode remains in the electrolyte under negative voltage, electrolyte helps to reduce oxide film that anodization generates and dissolve gate electrode, therefore, the most handy aluminium of gate electrode, titanium, tantalum form, make it not have enough anti-reduction abilities, but can not form gate electrode with those metal such as copper, zinc and silver that is difficult for reduction.When forming gate electrode, should add negative voltage at electrolyte with the said metal in back.
In another kind of method of the present invention, be the voltage V on the gate electrode that to be added to below the gate electrode oxide film CGRemain to a suitable value, to realize current processing, for example voltage V CGBe 30 to 80V.
Find that when adding positive voltage or negative voltage between gate electrode and transistor, the characteristic of TFT has very big improvement in inventor's research.This acting on hereinafter is referred to as current processing or current annealing.With regard to institute's making alive, not the effect that the voltage of both positive and negative type can both play current processing.For example, (source, leakage are the N types) just must add positive voltage to gate electrode under the situation of N channel TFT.P-channel TFT (source, leakage are under the situation of P type, and gate electrode is preferably added negative voltage).
There are two factors to play this current processing effect.Factor is electrochemical action and buried the pin hole of oxide-film.This is the ion transport phenomena (mainly being oxonium ion) in grid insulating film.If grid insulating film is inhomogeneous, make the ion migration with alive method, make inhomogeneous part smooth.Consequently the uniformity of grid insulating film improves among the TFT.
Another factor is to use current flow heats, and in fact annealing down with high temperature has same effect.In this state, fixed charge is removed, and the dangling bonds of ion and the dangling bonds of silicon are connected with each other, and interface state density is reduced.This high annealing effect need make temperature on the entire substrate at about 1000 ℃ high temperature, but will realize that current processing only need make entire substrate in room temperature or in cold liquid.Yet, the energy level (about 0.1ev) that insulation film carries out among a small circle on a small scale corresponding to 1000 ℃ is handled.
Figure 10 is that source, the leak of a TFT depressed and alive state diagram between source, leakage and gate electrode in same electrical.[Figure 10 (A)-(D)].Figure 10 (A) and (C) be the energy band diagram of locating along A-A ' among Fig. 5 (A).Figure 10 (B) and (D) be the energy band diagram of locating along B-B ' among Fig. 5 (A).Source and leak is not doped, and the same with active area below the gate electrode is Intrinsical.Figure 10 (A) and (B) expression added the gate electrode of positive voltage.Figure 10 (C) and (D) expression added the gate electrode of negative voltage.In both cases, because alive effect enables band crooked near the precipitous ground of gate electrode and grid insulating film place.Can be with formation one degree of depth to reverse in a side near the silicon at the interface of silica and silicon.As Figure 10 (A) with (C), can be with precipitous portions of electronics and hole to be accelerated; And it is compound mutually by the complex centre.They are by this compound function and local luminous that loses then.The compound mutually or counteracting of dangling bonds then.As Figure 10 (B) with (D), the interface into grid insulating film of crashing is passed in high energy electron and hole from semiconductor inside.These electronics and hole and lattice collision also produce a large amount of amount of localized heat.
This effect is clearly confirmed by experiment, but realizes that as the basis a large amount of production is difficult with this.Problem is how voltage to be added on semiconductor region and the gate electrode.
In the experiment gate electrode is connected respectively with electric wire with semiconductor region.And this method just can not be used in a large amount of production.About this problem, the present invention has found out an idea with room temperature electrolyte or cold electrolyte.This electrolyte also has cold acupoints (cold medium), to prevent local overheating and permanent the puncture.This operation brief description is as follows.Fig. 5 (A) illustrates a TFT element.This TFT is formed on the insulation film 2 of substrate 1 and bottoming, comprises an island shape semiconductor region 3, one deck grid insulating film 4 and a gate electrode 5.One deck insulation film 6 is arranged on the gate electrode 5.This insulation film 6 is extremely important in the electrolyte of usefulness.These insulation film 6 common oxide-films that preferably gate electrode carried out anodic oxidation and form.
Although only draw a TFT among the figure, many TFT independent of each other can be arranged on same substrate.Making alive makes between the top of grid insulating film and the bottom and produces potential difference on the gate electrode.Realize current processing with this method.
Fig. 5 (B) has provided the equivalent electric circuit of this TFT.Gate electrode potential is VG.Seen two loops from gate electrode: a loop is to pass insulation film 6 (resistance R 1) arrival electrolyte; Another loop is by grid insulating film 4 (resistance R 2) following gate electrode, semiconductor region 3 (resistance R 4), grid insulating film 4 (resistance R 3) reach electrolyte again.Obviously, controlling resistance R 1, R 2, R 3And R 4Resistance value can select to be added to voltage V on the gate electrode below the grid insulating film CGOptimum value.
If do not have insulation film 6, then R 1=0, because R 1=0, V CG=0, that is to say not have making alive on the grid insulating film.Thereby insulation film 6 must be arranged.As shown in circuit, if R 1<R 2+ R 3+ R 4, V CGJust less than the voltage that is added on the insulation film 6.Learn from experiment, for obtaining big like this voltage, V CGMust can increase R on demand at 30-80V 1With reduce R 3
More particularly, the insulation film 4 on the semiconductor region 3 should integrally be done thinly, or can partially or completely be removed, except the following zone that gate electrode arranged.For example, if all be removed R 3=0, V CGThe a large amount of increase.It also is effective making insulation film 6 thickenings.Consequently be added to the voltage V on the gate electrode GDo not increase and much just can carry out processing of circuit effectively.N channel-type TFT must add positive voltage, and P channel-type TFT must add negative voltage.
If make insulation film 6 with the anode oxide film of gate material, then should make gate electrode with aluminium, tantalum, silicon, titanium, tungsten, chromium and analog.Want to guide equably reaction, this electrolyte should be remained under the constant temperature.Because electrolyte has heat diffusion capabilities (cooling), thereby can prevent the puncture that causes because of local overheating.
Figure 11 carries out the employed device schematic diagram of current processing for the present invention.Filled with electrolyte 8 in the electrolysis tank 7.Substrate 9 and the electrode 10 made with oxidation resistant platinum, palladium and analog thereof are immersed in the electrolyte 8.The immersion method of substrate has two kinds.A kind of is directly to immerse in the electrolyte, shown in Figure 11 (A); Another kind method is substrate 9 to be fixed on substrate support plate 9A go up in the immersion electrolyte, shown in Figure 11 (B).On the exit A, the B that stretch out by this electrode and substrate, add positive voltage or negative voltage.

Make substrate 201 with an inexpensive glass plate, glass plate is the N-O glass plate of being made by Nippon electric glass Co., Ltd.Glass plate is the glass with high deformation temperature and the rich sodium of rich lithium.For stopping lithium ion and sodium ion, on substrate, form one deck silicon nitride film 202.With silicon nitride film 202 thickness of plasma CVD method deposit is 10 to 50nm.On silicon nitride film be one deck silicon oxide film 203 of 100 to 800nm then by same mode deposition thickness with sputtering method.It with plasma CVD method deposition thickness on silicon oxide film 203 20 to 100nm the armorphous semiconductive thin film of one deck.Then semiconductive thin film thermal anneal process through 12 to 72 hours under 600 ℃ is made its recrystallization, and constitute a plurality of semiconductor island 204 and 205 figures with photoetching process and reactive ion etching (RIE).With silica is that target sputtering deposit thickness in oxygen atmosphere is one deck silicon oxide film 206 of 50 to 200nm.Is 2 to 20nm with plasma CVD method or low pressure chemical vapor deposition method by same mode deposition thickness,, preferably thickness is one deck silicon nitride film 207 of 8 to 11nm, makes it constitute a pair of grid insulating film with silicon oxide film 206.On silicon nitride film 207, form the layer of aluminum film with sputtering method or electron-beam vapor deposition method, and be that etching agent is made gate electrode 209 and 210 and essential lead 208 and 211 figure with the mixed acid that the nitric acid that adds 5% in the phosphoric acid is made.On substrate, make transistorized essential member with said method.
In order to form aluminum oxide film 212,213,214 and 215, to the outer surface anodic oxidation of gate electrode 209,210 and lead 208,211.That is to say that the substrate that will have gate electrode 209,210 and lead 208,211 is made anode, is immersed in the electrolytic cell with the suitable electrode as negative electrode.Japanese patent application NO, flat 4-30220 antianode oxidizing process has been made detailed description.The practical structures of anodization system and anodic process are by the transistor desirable characteristics, and factors such as technological requirement, scale of investment determine.How negative voltage is added on gate electrode 209,210 and the lead 208,211 with following this embodiment explanation of the present invention.
At first, the speed with 10 volts of per minutes makes the voltage on gate electrode 209,210 and the lead 208,211 rise to 300 volts from 0.Kept 1 hour when the voltage on being added to gate electrode 209,210 and lead 208,211 reaches 300 volts, make gate electrode 209,210 and lead 208,211 anodic oxidations, forming the thickness that covers on it is the aluminum oxide film 212,213,214 and 215 of 350nm.Then the voltage on gate electrode 209,210 and the lead 208,211 is reduced negative voltages-30 volts extremely-100 volts from 300 volts.Preferably-35 volt to-50 volts, pressure decay rate is 10 volts of per minutes.Electron capture that causes in the anodic oxidation and lattice defect are being eliminated with the method that adds negative voltage subsequently.
Secondly, in semiconductor island district 204 and 205, form source region and drain region 216 and 217 according to known CMOS manufacturing technology with ion implantation.That is, the phosphonium ion with 110Kev (kilo electron volt) injects semiconductor island district 204.And gate electrode 209 and aluminum oxide film 213 coverings are semiconductor island mid portions of channel region.The boron fluoride ion-implanted semiconductor island 205 that uses the same method and to have 80Kev.Do not cover at aluminum oxide film 213 and 214, have apart from the gate electrode edge in the so-called off-set construction of certain distance to form source region and drain region 216 and 217, shown in Fig. 2 (C).
Owing to ion injects destroyed basically amorphous state or the very approaching amorphous polycrystalline attitude of becoming of degree of crystallinity that makes source region and drain region 216 and 217, therefore it is carried out laser annealing and make it at source region and drain region recrystallization.The flat 4-30220 of Japanese patent application NO. is described the condition of laser annealing.The heating anneal that can be used under 600 ℃ to 850 ℃ replaces laser annealing.Annealing after annealed substrate put into again hydrogen (air pressure is 1 to 700 torr, preferably 500 to 700 torrs) under 250 to 450 ℃ through 30 minutes to 3 hours again annealing.Make hydrogen atom enter semiconductor region with this hydrogen annealing method, reducing lattice defect, as if dangling bonds is stopped.
Silica interlayer film 218 with sputtering deposit covers this structure then.Open suitable contact hole with photoetching process, pass silicon oxide film 218, silicon nitride film 207 and silicon oxide film 206 expose source region and drain region 216 and 217.Last deposit aluminium or chromium thin film and needle drawing constitute the essential lead that comprises source electrode and drain electrode 220 that is connected with the drain region by contact hole and source region.
With reference now to Fig. 3 (A), the manufacture method of the complementary thin-film isolated-gate field effect transistor (IGFET) of pressing second embodiment of the present invention is described to 3 (D).
Make substrate 301 with a kind of inexpensive glass plate.Glass plate is the Corning7059 glass of being made by Corning Co., Ltd.On substrate, form one deck silicon nitride film 302 to suppress removable ion.The thickness of the silicon nitride film 302 of institute's deposit is 5nm to 200nm.For example use the thick silicon nitride film of RF plasma CVD method deposit 10nm.Being the silicon oxide film 303 of 200nm to 1000nm with identical method deposition thickness on silicon nitride film then, is the silicon oxide film of 50nm with RF plasma CVD method deposition thickness for example.Should and determine according to the tendency of the removable ion that prevents to pass it thickness of silicon nitride film 302 and silicon oxide film 303 influence of the semiconductive thin film on next procedure is formed on it.Certainly, these films 302 and 303 can be used the other technologies deposit.Low pressure chemical vapor deposition for example, sputter and similar deposition technology, but should be according to scale of investment, factors such as mass-produced efficient are selected.These films can deposit continuously in same deposition chamber.
At first, deposit one layer thickness is 20 to 200nm amorphous semiconductor film 304 on silicon oxide film 303, for example, be 430 to 450 ℃ at underlayer temperature, using the low pressure chemical vapor deposition deposition thickness of the reacting gas of forming with single silane is the amorphous semiconductor layer of 100nm.On ground floor semiconductive thin film 304, under 520 ℃ to 560 ℃ different temperatures,, form thickness and be 5 at underlayer temperature to 200nm for example at 550 ℃ of following consecutive depositions, for example be the second layer amorphous semiconductor film 305 of 10nm, shown in Fig. 3 (A).Studies confirm that through the inventor underlayer temperature mainly influences the crystallization process again of semiconductive thin film subsequently.For example, semiconductive thin film be not higher than deposit on 480 ℃ the substrate, then semiconductive thin film recrystallization difficulty.On the contrary, when semiconductive thin film is to be not less than deposit under 520 ℃ the underlayer temperature, then realize recrystallization easily.
Then semiconductive thin film 305 is made its recrystallization through 24 hours thermal anneal process under 600 ℃, make it be transformed into so-called half amorphous semiconductor film.Yet, be embedded in following semiconductive thin film 304 and remain amorphous state.In order to make semiconductive thin film 305 realize recrystallization effectively, the carbon atom that exists in the semiconductive thin film 305, the density of nitrogen-atoms and oxygen atom should not be higher than 7 * 10 respectively 19Cm -3The density that records respectively in the test is not higher than 1 * 10 17Cm -3These semiconductive thin films 304 and 305 usefulness photoetching and corrosion technology composition form a plurality of semiconductor islands 306 and 307.Use the top film of each semiconductor island of intrinsic semiconductor main composition then.Deposition thickness is the silicon oxide film 310 of 50-300nm, for example, makes the target silicon oxide film that sputter 150nm is thick in oxygen atmosphere with silica and constitutes grid insulating film.On silicon oxide film 310, form the aluminium film with sputtering method or electron beam evaporation, and form the lead of not drawing among gate electrode 311,312 and the essential figure with adding mixed acid corrosion composition that 5% nitric acid forms in the phosphoric acid.40 ℃ of following corrosion rates is 225 mm/min.To determine to be arranged in the channel length and the channel width of 8 millimeters of the length of following semiconductor island 306 and 307 be 20 microns to the gate electrode of Xing Chenging then, shown in Fig. 3 (B).
For forming the outer surface anodic oxidation of the aluminum oxide film 313 and the 314 pairs of gate electrodes 311,312 and lead.The substrate that is about to have gate electrode 311,312 and lead is made anode, immerses in the electrolyte with the suitable electrode as negative electrode.Anode oxidation method describes in detail in flat 3-231188 of Japanese patent application NO or the flat 3-238713 of NO..The practical structures of anodic oxidation system and technical process depend on transistorized desirable characteristics, technological requirement and scale of investment or the like factor.Add negative voltage for gate electrode 311,312 and lead by this embodiment of the present invention subsequently.
At first, adding 10 volts speed by per minute makes the voltage on gate electrode 311,312 and the lead increase to 300 volts from 0.Voltage on gate electrode 311,312 and lead reaches 300 volts, keeps 1 hour under this state, and making gate electrode 311,312 and lead anodic oxidation form the thickness that covers on it is the aluminum oxide film 313 and 314 of 350nm.Then, make voltage on gate electrode 311,312 and the lead from 300 volts of negative voltages that are reduced to-30 volts to-100 volts, preferably-35 volt to-50 volts with the speed of 10 volts of per minutes.Electron capture that produces in the anodic oxidation and lattice defect have been eliminated with added negative voltage.
Secondly, in semiconductor island 306 and 307, form source region and drain region 315 and 316 by known CMOS manufacturing technology with ion implantation, promptly, phosphonium ion with 110Kev injects semiconductor island 306, and gate electrode 311 and aluminum oxide film 313 cover the mid portion of the semiconductor island that is channel region.To have in the same way in the boron fluoride ion-implanted semiconductor island 307 of 80Kev.Do not cover at aluminum oxide film 313 and 314, have apart from the gate electrode edge in the so-called off-set construction of certain distance to form source region and drain region 315 and 316, shown in Fig. 3 (C).
Can replace ion to inject with ion doping technique and form source region and drain region 315 and 316.And the situation of big substrate is handled without ion implantation usually.Handle with ion doping equipment for 30 inches of diagonal angle line lengths or bigger substrate.In ion doping technique, do not need hydrogen ion is quickened and introduces in the film, thereby substrate temperature tends to raise widely, thereby be difficult to select photoresist mask to be used as the ion injecting mask.
Because injecting, ion make the degree of crystallinity of source region and drain region 315 and 316 destroyed basically, therefore become amorphous state or approached amorphous polycrystalline attitude, therefore laser annealing be need carry out, the source region and the drain region recrystallization that have the gate electrode 311,312 that covers with oxide film 313,314 made.The condition of laser annealing is open in the flat 3-231188 of Japanese patent application NO. and 238713.This structure covers with the silica interlayer film 319 of RF plasma CVD deposit.Open suitable connecting hole with photoetching process, expose source region and drain region 315 and 316 by silicon oxide film 319 and silicon oxide film 310.Last deposit and composition aluminium film form and pass the essential lead that comprises source electrode and drain electrode 320 to 322 that connecting hole and source region and drain region 315 link to each other with 316.
The energy of laser annealing should be high to making second layer semiconductor film 304 recrystallizations, constitutes the homogeneously crystallized source and the leakage of full thickness as ground floor semiconductor film 305.Yet, by second embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of source region and drain region 316 and 315 is about 100nm, because exist the irrelevant ground floor semiconductive thin film 304 of gate electrode and laser annealing still to be amorphous state, therefore the thickness of the channel region below gate electrode 312 and 311 is that 10nm is so little just.Consequently, the face resistance value of source region and drain region 316 and 315 reduces, and the cut-off current that passes channel region is limited basically.In addition, can avoid undesirable influence of capturing attitude of producing in interfacial state between semiconductive thin film and the following silicon oxide film and the silicon oxide film below in this case.The semiconductive thin film 305 that promptly plays the channel region effect does not directly contact with silicon oxide film 303, but does not directly contact contacting between the semiconductor film that only do not play the raceway groove effect between the right and wrong crystalline state semiconductive thin film 304 and the silicon oxide film.The inventor's experiment shows, unless the interface state density between silicon oxide film 303 and the amorphous semiconductor film 304 surpasses 5 * 10 12Cm -2, otherwise undesirable influence can not appear.
With reference now to Fig. 4 (A), the manufacture method of the complementary thin-film isolated-gate field effect transistor (IGFET) of pressing the 3rd embodiment of the present invention is described to 4 (E).

Secondly, in semiconductor island 403 and 404, form source region and drain region 403 and 404 by known CMOS manufacturing technology.That is, inject semiconductor island 403, and gate electrode 406 and aluminum oxide film 408 cover the mid portion of the semiconductor island that is channel region with phosphonium ion with 110Kev.Use the same method in the boron fluoride ion-implanted semiconductor island 404 that will have 80Kev, unshielded at aluminum oxide film 408 and 409, in the so-called off-set construction that the gate electrode edge has, form source region and drain region 413 and 414, shown in Fig. 4 (D).
Substantially destroy and become amorphous state or approach amorphous polycrystalline attitude owing to ion injects the degree of crystallinity make source region and drain region, use the mode identical that laser annealing is carried out in source region and drain region and make its recrystallization with first embodiment.The flat 4-30220 of Japanese patent application NO. openly sends out the condition of laser annealing.After the annealing, substrate is in hydrogen (pressure is 1 to 700 torr, is preferably 500 to 700 torrs) again, at 250 to 450 ℃ through 30 minutes to 3 hours annealing in process.Make hydrogen atom enter semiconductor region and reduced lattice defect with this method for annealing in hydrogen, make unsettled strong termination as resembling.

With reference now to Fig. 8 (A), the manufacture method of the semiconductor device of pressing the 6th embodiment of the present invention is described to 8 (F).The complementary TFT that N-channel TFT that this embodiment forms on same substrate and P channel TFT are formed.(CTFT) example.
At first, forming thickness with sputtering method on substrate (Corning 7059 glass) 31 is the silica bottom layer film 32 of 2000 .Forming thickness with plasma CVD method is 500-1500 , and for example the intrinsic of 1500 (I type) amorphous silicon film is the silicon oxide film of 200 with sputtering method formation thickness, in nitrogen, makes this amorphous silicon membrane crystallization at 600 ℃ through 48 hours annealing in process.
After the crystallization step,, form island shape silicon area 33P (being used for the P channel TFT) and 33n (being used for the N-channel TFT) to the silicon thin film needle drawing.Be that the silicon oxide film 34 of 1000 is made grid insulating film with the sputtering method deposition thickness then.Make target with silica in the sputter, underlayer temperature is 200-400 ℃, for example is 250 ℃, and sputtering atmosphere is oxygen and argon, argon/oxygen=0-0.5, for example 0.1 or lower.

Make mask 37n with photoresist, expose the semiconductor region of N channel TFT.With this mask etching silica 34, the hydrofluoric acid with 10% is corrosive agent.Substrate immerses (1-5% neutralizes with ammoniacal liquor) in the tartaric ethylene glycol solution once more, carries out current processing after adding positive voltage to gate electrode.Current potential on the gate electrode increases to the 30-80 volt with 4 volts/minute speed, and for example 60 volts, and this maintenance 1 hour.
Under the alive situation of gate electrode of P-channel-type TFT, because all being insulated material, gate electrode covers, effective voltage adds less than on the electrode below the dielectric film.In this operation, can not make the P-channel TFT carry out current processing.This current processing is used for the P channel TFT, when being added on the gate insulating film transistor performance is degenerated owing to positive voltage.(Fig. 8 (B)).
Use mask 37n, make the silicon area 33n that mask injects impurity (phosphorus) the N channel TFT with the anode oxide film 36 of gate electrode 35n and encirclement gate electrode.With hydrogen phosphide (PH 3) make foreign gas, accelerating voltage is 60-90KV, 80KV for example, dosage is 1 * 10 15Cm -2-8 * 10 15Cm -2, for example 2 * 10 15Cm -2, consequently formed N type impurity range 38n (Fig. 8 (C)).
The mask 37P that makes with photoresist covers the N channel TFT, exposes the semiconductor region 33P of P channel TFT, with this mask etching silicon oxide film 34.Hydrofluoric acid with 10% is made corrosive agent.Substrate immerses (1-5% neutralizes with ammoniacal liquor) in the tartaric ethylene glycol solution once more.Carry out current processing to adding negative voltage on the grid.Gate electrode potential at first increases to-30 to-80 volts with-4 volts/minute speed, for example-60 volt, and keeps 1 hour.
Voltage also is to be added on the gate electrode of N channel-type TFT in this case since gate electrode all to be insulated material topped, virtual voltage adds less than on the gate electrode below the insulation film (Fig. 8 (D)).
With mask 37P and gate electrode 35P, reach the anode oxide film 36P that surrounds gate electrode and make mask, impurity (hydrogen) is injected the silicon area 33P of P-raceway groove TPT with the plasma doping method.With diborane (B 2H 6) make foreign gas, accelerating voltage is 40-80KV, 65KV for example, dosage is 1 * 10 15Cm -2-8 * 10 15Cm -2, for example 5 * 10 15Cm -2Consequently formed impurity range 38P (Fig. 8 (E)).
Then, carry out laser annealing with laser radiation.With KrF excimer laser (wavelength 248nm, pulse duration is 20nsec).The energy density of laser is 200-500mJ/cm 2, 250mJ/cm for example 2, each local irradiation 2-10 time, for example 2 times, substrate is heated to 100-450 ℃, for example 250 ℃, makes impurity activation in this way.
Forming thickness with plasma CVD method is that the silicon oxide film 39 of 6000 is made interlevel insulator, forms connecting hole therein.Form the source region of TFT and the electrode wiring 40a in drain region with metal film, 40b, 40c, 40d, metal film are the sandwich constructions that is made of titanium nitride membrane and aluminium film.At last, in an atmospheric hydrogen, under 350 ℃ through 30 minutes annealing in process.Form thin-film transistor (Fig. 8 (F)) with this method.
Constitute displacement resistor with the thin-film transistor that forms herein, prove when drain voltage is 15 volts and can work, when drain voltage is 18 volts, can under 20MHz, work at 11MHz.
If as present embodiment, CTFT is carried out current processing,, also should separate for the voltage that adds on each gate electrode owing to form the gate electrode of P channel TFT and N channel TFT respectively.Yet, in the CTFT circuit, many times be that the grid of P channel TFT and the grid of N channel TFT are linked together.If the picture system that said usefulness is different comes making alive, then need to reconstruct a figure who connects them here.
On the other hand, be to solve this problem among the present invention with mask 37P and 37n.This mask also can be used as doping mask, and manufacturing process is not increased.
With reference now to Fig. 9 (A), the manufacture method of the semiconductor device of pressing seventh embodiment of the invention is described to 9 (F).This embodiment is an example making CTFT.Forming thickness with sputtering method on substrate (Corning 7059 glass) 41 is the silica bottom layer film 42 of 2000 .Forming thickness with plasma CVD method is 500-1500 , and for example the intrinsic of 1500 (I type) amorphous silicon film is the silicon oxide film of 200 with sputtering method deposit one layer thickness on it.In nitrogen atmosphere, through 48 hours amorphous silicon film is carried out crystallization treatment at 600 ℃.
