Description
技术领域
本发明实施例涉及一种用于制造半导体器件的方法,并且更具体地,涉及一种用于位于栅电极和源极/漏极区域上方的绝缘层的结构及制造方法。
背景技术
随着半导体器件的尺寸的减小,例如,自对准接触件(SAC)广泛地用于制造更靠近场效应晶体管(FET)中的栅极结构布置的源极/漏极(S/D)接触件。通常,通过图案化层间介电(ILD)层来制造SAC,在该层间介电层下面,接触蚀刻停止层(CESL)形成在具有侧壁间隔件的栅极结构上方。ILD层的最初的蚀刻停止在CESL处,并且然后,蚀刻CESL以形成SAC。随着器件密度增加(即,半导体器件的尺寸减小),侧壁间隔件的厚度变得更薄,这可能导致S/D接触件与栅电极之间的短路。因此,需要提供具有S/D接触件与栅电极之间的改进的电隔离的SAC结构及制造工艺。

图1A和图1B示出了在形成金属栅极结构后半导体器件的结构。在图1A和图1B中,金属栅极结构10形成在沟道层5上方,例如,金属栅极结构10是鳍结构的部分。在一些实施例中,金属栅极结构10的厚度在从约15nm至约50nm的范围内。侧壁间隔件30提供在金属栅极结构10的侧壁上。在一些实施例中,侧壁间隔件30的在侧壁间隔件底部处的薄膜厚度在从约3nm至约15nm的范围内,并且在其它实施例中,该薄膜厚度在从约4nm至约10nm的范围内。金属栅极结构10和侧壁间隔件30的组合可以统称为栅极结构。此外,邻近于栅极结构形成源极/漏极区域50或者在栅极结构之间形成源极/漏极区域50,并且以第一层间介电(ILD)层40填充在栅极结构之间的间隔。在本发明中,源极和栅极可以交换使用,并且源极/漏极(或者S/D)可以指的是源极和漏极的其中一个或者两个。
图1C是栅极结构的放大视图。金属栅极结构10包括金属材料的一层或多层16,金属材料诸如Al、Cu、W、Ti、Ta、TiN、TiAl、TiAlC、TiAlN、TaN、NiSi、CoSi、其它导电材料。栅极介电层12设置在沟道层5和金属栅极之间,金属栅极包括诸如高k金属氧化物的金属氧化物的一层或者多层。用于高k介电质的金属氧化物的实例包括Li、Be、Mg、Ca、Sr、Sc、Y、Zr、Hf、Al、La、Ce、Pr、Nd、Sm、Eu、Gd、Tb、Dy、Ho、Er、Tm、Yb、Lu的氧化物和/或它们的混合物。
在一些实施例中,一个或多个功函调整层14插在栅极介电层12和金属材料16之间。功函数调整层14由导电材料制成,导电材料诸如TiN、TaN、TaAlC、TiC、TaC、Co、Al、TiAl、HfTi、TiSi、TaSi或者TiAlC的单层,或者这些材料的两层或者多层。对于n沟道FET,TaN、TiAlC、TiN、TiC、Co、TiAl、HfTi、TiSi和TaSi中的一种或多种用作功函调整层,而对于p沟道FET,TiAlC、Al、TiAl、TaN、TaAlC、TiN、TiC和Co中的一种或多种用作功函调整层。
侧壁间隔件30包括绝缘材料的一层或者多层。绝缘材料诸如基于氧化硅的材料或者基于氮化硅的材料,包括SiO2、SiN、SiON、SiCN以及SiOCN。第一ILD层40包括诸如基于氧化硅的材料(诸如二氧化硅(SiO2)和SiON)的绝缘材料的一层或者多层。
侧壁间隔件30的材料和第一ILD层40的材料是互相不同的,使得每层可以选择性蚀刻。在一个实施例中,侧壁间隔件30由SiOCN、SiCN或者SiON制成,而第一ILD层40由SiO2制成。
在这个实施例中,可以通过采用栅极替代工艺制造鳍式场效应晶体管(FinFET)。
图1D示出了FinFET结构的示例性立体图。
首先,在衬底300上方制造鳍结构310。鳍结构包括底部区域和作为沟道区315的上部区域。例如,衬底是具有在从约1×1015cm-3至约1×1018cm-3的范围内的杂质浓度的p型硅衬底。在其他的实施例中,衬底是具有在从约1×1015cm-3至约1×1018cm-3的范围内的杂质浓度的n型硅衬底。可选地,衬底可以包括诸如锗的其他元素半导体、化合物半导体或者它们的组合,化合物半导体包括诸如SiC和SiGe的IV-IV族化合物半导体,诸如GaAs、GaP、GaN、InP、InAs、InSb、GaAsP、AlGaN、AlInAs、AlGaAs、GaInAs、GaInP和/或GaInAsP的III-V族化合物半导体。在一个实施例中,衬底是SOI(绝缘体上硅)衬底的硅层。
在形成鳍结构310之后,在鳍结构310上方形成隔离绝缘层320。隔离绝缘层320包括通过LPCVD(低压化学汽相沉积)、等离子体CVD或可流动CVD形成的绝缘材料(如氧化硅、氮氧化硅或氮化硅)的一层或多层。隔离绝缘层可以由旋涂玻璃(SOG)、SiO、SiON、SiOCN和/或掺杂氟的硅酸盐玻璃(FSG)的一层或多层形成。
在鳍结构上方形成隔离绝缘层320后,实施平坦化操作以移除隔离绝缘层320的部分。平坦化操作可以包括化学机械抛光(CMP)和/或回蚀刻工艺。然后,进一步去除(凹进)隔离绝缘层320,使得暴露鳍结构的上部区域。
伪栅极结构GATE形成在暴露的鳍结构上方。伪栅极结构包括由多晶硅制成的伪栅电极层以及包括伪栅极介电层。侧壁间隔件350包括绝缘材料的一层或者多层,侧壁间隔件350也形成在伪栅电极层的侧壁上。在形成伪栅极结构之后,使未被伪栅极结构覆盖的鳍结构310凹进至隔离绝缘层320的上表面的下方。然后,通过使用外延生长方法在凹进的鳍结构上方形成源极/漏极区域360。源极/漏极区域可以包括应变材料以施加应力到沟道区315。
然后,层间介电(ILD)层370形成在伪栅极结构和源极/漏极区域上方。在平坦化操作之后,去除伪栅极结构以用作栅极间隔。然后,在栅极间隔中,形成包括金属栅电极以及包括诸如高k介电层的栅极介电层的金属栅极结构330,以获得在图1D中示出的FinFET结构。在图1D中,切割(cut)金属栅极结构330、侧壁330以及ILD层370的部分以示出下部的结构。
图1D的金属栅极结构330、侧壁330、源极/漏极360以及ILD层370基本上分别对应于图1A和图1B的金属栅极结构10、侧壁间隔件30、源极/漏极区域50以及第一ILD层40。
图2至图16根据本发明的一个实施例示出的沿着图1A的线X1-X1的示例性截面图,描述了半导体器件的顺序制造工艺的各个阶段。应该理解,可以在通过图2至图16示出的工艺之前、期间和之后提供额外的操作,并且对于该方法的额外实施例,下文描述的一些操作可以被替换或消除。操作/工艺的顺序可以互换。
如图2中示出的,通过使用干和/或湿蚀刻工艺凹进栅电极层10。在一些实施例中,在从第一ILD层40的上表面测量的凹进间隔25的在栅电极10之上的深度D1在从约10nm至约25nm的范围内,并且在其它实施例中,该深度D1在从约15nm至约20nm的范围内。
如图3中示出的,通过使用干和/或湿蚀刻工艺凹进侧壁间隔件30以加宽凹进间隔25。由于侧壁间隔件30由不同于第一ILD层40的材料制成,可以基本上可选择性地蚀刻侧壁间隔件层30。在一些实施例中,在从第一ILD层40的上表面测量的凹进间隔25的在侧壁间隔件30之上的深度D2在从约5nm至约20nm的范围内,并且在其它实施例中,该深度D2在从约8nm至约15nm的范围内。
深度D2不同于深度D1。在一些实施例中,深度D2小于深度D1。换句话说,在图3中,侧壁间隔件30的顶部高于栅电极10的顶部。在一些实施例中,在深度D2和深度D1(即侧壁间隔件30和栅电极10的高度的不同)之间的高度差在从约5nm至约15nm的范围内,并且在其它实施例中,该高度差在从约8nm至约12nm的范围内。
需要注意的是,可以在凹进侧壁间隔件30后凹进栅电极层10。
然后,如图4中示出,保护层60共形地形成在凹进间隔25中。保护层60在随后的蚀刻操作中保护侧壁间隔件30。此外,设置在栅电极10上方的保护层60用作栅极结构中的盖绝缘层。绝缘材料的一层或者多层毯状层共形地形成在图3中示出的结构上方。如图4中示出的,保护层60部分地填充间隔25。在一些实施例中,保护层60的厚度在从约3nm至约5nm的范围内。
在形成保护层60后,第一蚀刻停止层(ESL)70形成在保护层60上。绝缘材料的一层或者多层毯状层共形地形成在保护层60上。然后,如图6中示出的,施加诸如回蚀工艺和/或化学机械抛光(CMP)工艺的平坦化操作以去除保护层60的上部和第一ESL 70的上部。
在一些实施例中,在平坦化操作之后,第一ESL 70在从约40nm至约50nm的范围内,并且在特定的实施例中,第一ESL 70在从约20nm至约30nm的范围内。
保护层60和第一ESL 70由不同的绝缘材料制成。保护层60由对基于硅的绝缘材料具有高抗蚀刻性的材料制成。在一些实施例中,诸如AlO、AlON和/或AlN的基于铝的绝缘材料用作保护层60,并且诸如SiN和/或SiON的基于氮化硅的材料用作第一ESL 70。设置在栅电极10上方的第一ESL 70用作栅极结构中的另一盖绝缘层。
如图7中示出的,在平坦化操作之后,通过使用合适的蚀刻操作去除设置在源极/漏极结构50上方的第一ILD层40。
随后,在图7的结构的上方形成导电材料。在图7的结构的上方形成诸如钨、钛、钴、钽、铜、铝、镍或者它们的硅化物或者其它合适的材料的导电材料的一层或者多层。然后,实施诸如CMP工艺的平坦化操作以获得图8的结构。在两个栅极结构之间的间隔填充导电材料,从而形成了与源极/漏极区域50接触的源极/漏极接触层80。
然后,如图9中示出的,通过使用合适的蚀刻操作凹进源极/漏极接触层80。如图10中示出的,用绝缘材料填充通过凹进源极/漏极接触层80形成的间隔,从而形成第二ESL90。
第二ESL 90包括诸如SiC和/或SiOC的基于碳化硅的绝缘材料的一层或多层。绝缘材料的毯状层形成在图9的结构的上方,并且然后实施诸如CMP工艺的平坦化操作以获得图10的结构。
此外,如图11中示出的,在图10的结构的上方形成第二ILD 100。第二ILD层100包括绝缘材料的一层或者多层,绝缘材料包括诸如二氧化硅(SiO2)和SiON的基于氧化硅的材料或者低k介电材料。在一些实施例中,例如,在形成第二ILD层100之前形成第三ESL 105,第三ESL 105由SiN、SiON和/或SiOCN制成。
在形成第二ILD层100后,在第二ILD层100上方形成第一掩模图案110,第一掩模图案110具有位于栅电极10上方的开口。如图12中示出的,通过使用第一掩模图案110作为蚀刻掩模,使用蚀刻操作蚀刻第二ILD层100、第三ESL105以及第一ESL 70以形成接触孔112。在该蚀刻操作中,在栅电极10上形成的保护层60用作蚀刻停止层,并且第一ESL 70的蚀刻基本上停止在保护层60处。第一掩模图案110包括抗蚀图案和硬掩膜图案的至少一种。硬掩模图案可以包括一种或者多种介电材料、诸如TiN或者TaN的金属氮化物或者诸如TiO2的金属氧化物。
随后,如图13中示出的,进一步蚀刻保护层60以完成形成接触孔112。在一些实施例中,保护层60的蚀刻包括湿蚀刻工艺。然后,去除第一掩模图案110。在一些实施例中,在保护层60的蚀刻之前,去除第一掩模层110。
如图14中示出的,第二掩模图案115形成在第二ILD层100上方,第二掩模图案115具有位于源极/漏极接触层80上方的开口。如图14中示出的,通过使用第二掩模图案115作为蚀刻掩模,使用蚀刻操作蚀刻第二ILD层100、第三ESL105以及第二ESL 90以形成接触孔117。在该蚀刻操作中,基本上不蚀刻保护层60(和侧壁间隔件30),因此可以以自对准方式形成接触孔117。第二掩模图案115包括抗蚀图案和硬掩膜图案的至少一种。硬掩模图案可以包括一种或者多种介电材料、诸如TiN或者TaN的金属氮化物或者诸如TiO2的金属氧化物。然后,如图15中示出的,去除第二掩模图案115。在一些实施例中,在第二ESL 90的蚀刻期间,去除第二掩模层115。
在一些实施例中,在形成接触孔117后形成接触孔112。
如图16中示出的,随后以一种或者多种导电材料填充接触孔112和117以形成通孔插塞120和122。随后,在图15的结构的上方形成导电材料的毯状层,并且然后对毯状层施加诸如CMP的平坦化操作。
应该理解,图16所示的器件还经受CMOS工艺以形成诸如互连金属层、介电层、钝化层等的各种部件。
本文描述的各个实施例或实例提供若干优于现有技术的优点。例如,在本发明中,利用简化的制造操作在栅电极上方形成两个盖层是可能的,并且两个盖层用作接触蚀刻停止层。此外,两个盖层的其中一个也作为保护层以用于侧壁间隔件,这也可以简化制造操作。通过使用用于保护层、第一蚀刻停止层(盖层)以及第二蚀刻停止层的不同的材料,在接触孔蚀刻操作期间增加蚀刻选择性是可能的。
应该理解,本文不必讨论所有优点,没有特定优势是所有实施例或实例都必需的,并且其他实施例或实例可提供不同优点。
