Embodiment
As described in background, the poor-performing of the fin formula field effect transistor formed in the prior art.
Fig. 1 to Fig. 3 is a kind of structural representation of fin formula field effect transistor forming process.
With reference to being the schematic diagram that is obtained along A-A1 lines of cut in Fig. 1 with reference to figure 1 and Fig. 2, Fig. 2, there is provided Semiconductor substrate 100, there is initial fin in Semiconductor substrate 100;Initial fin is cut off along the surface normal direction of Semiconductor substrate 100, will Initial fin is divided into the first fin 110 and the second fin 111;Isolation structure and separation layer are formed on a semiconductor substrate 100 120, the isolation structure is between adjacent first fin 110, and between adjacent second fin 111, and isolation structure Top surface is located at the first fin 110 and second less than the first fin 110 and the top surface of the second fin 111, separation layer 120 Between fin 111, and the top surface of separation layer 120 is higher than the first fin 110 and the top surface of the second fin 111.
With reference to figure 3, be developed across the first grid structure 130 of the first fin 110 and across the second fin 111 Two grid structures 131;The first source and drain doping area 140 is formed in the first fin 110 of the both sides of first grid structure 130, The second source and drain doping area 141 is formed in second fin 111 of two grid structure both sides 131.
The step of forming the first source and drain doping area 140 be:The shape in the first fin 110 of the both sides of first grid structure 130 Into the first depression;The first source and drain material layer is formed in the described first depression, so as to form the first source and drain doping area 140.
The step of forming the second source and drain doping area 141 be:The shape in the second fin 111 of the both sides of second grid structure 131 Into the second depression;The second source and drain material layer is formed in the described second depression, so as to form the second source and drain doping area 141.
However, the poor-performing for the fin formula field effect transistor that the above method is formed, shows:First grid structure 130 The second source and drain between the first source and drain doping area 140, second grid structure 131 and separation layer 120 between separation layer 120 is mixed Miscellaneous area 141 forms serious collapse phenomenon, and the stress of respective channels is reduced, it has been investigated that, reason is:
With the continuous reduction of characteristic size, the distance between adjacent first grid structure 130 and adjacent second grid The distance between structure 131 constantly reduces so that the growing space in the first source and drain doping area 140 and the second source and drain doping area 141 Reduce.

Accordingly, the second source and drain doping area 141 between second grid structure 131 and separation layer 120 is caused to be formed seriously Collapse.
Due to the first source and drain doping area 140 between first grid structure 130 and separation layer 120, second grid structure 131 The second source and drain doping area 141 between separation layer 120 forms serious collapse phenomenon, causes to subtract the stress of respective channels It is small, so as to cause the degradation of fin formula field effect transistor.
On this basis, the present invention provides a kind of forming method of fin formula field effect transistor, including:Semiconductor lining is provided Bottom, there is the first initial fin in the Semiconductor substrate;Form the first groove in the described first initial fin, described first Groove runs through the first initial fin along perpendicular to the first initial fin bearing of trend;Exposed in the first groove first initial Fin side wall forms epitaxial layer;After forming epitaxial layer, full separation layer is filled in first groove;After forming separation layer, shape Into the grid structure across the first initial fin;Source and drain doping is formed in the first initial fin of the grid structure both sides Area.
The first initial fin side wall due to being exposed in the first groove forms epitaxial layer, hence in so that initial first On the bearing of trend of fin, total effective dimensions increase of the first initial fin and epitaxial layer of the first groove both sides.In grid knot In the case that the density of structure is constant so that the formation space increase in source and drain doping area.So that between grid structure and separation layer The pattern in source and drain doping area influenceed by growing space it is smaller so that the performance of fin formula field effect transistor is carried It is high.
