Description

鳍式场效应管及其形成方法
技术领域
本发明涉及半导体制造技术领域,特别涉及一种鳍式场效应管及其形成方法。
背景技术
随着半导体技术的飞速发展,半导体器件的特征尺寸不断缩小。半导体器件特征尺寸的减小对半导体器件的性能提出了更高的要求。
目前,金属-氧化物半导体场效应晶体管(MOSFET)的尺寸正在不断变小。为了适应工艺节点的减小,MOSFET场效应管的沟道长度也在逐渐缩短。沟道长度的缩短具有增加芯片的管芯密度、增加MOSFET场效应管的开关速度等好处。
然而,沟道长度的缩短容易造成栅极对沟道控制能力变差的问题,从而使栅极电压夹断(pinch off)沟道的难度也越来越大,进而造成亚阀值漏电现象,即出现短沟道效应(short-channel effects,SCE)。
因此,为了更好地适应器件尺寸按比例缩小的要求,半导体工艺逐渐从平面MOSFET晶体管向具有更高功效的三维立体式晶体管(如鳍式场效应管)过渡。鳍式场效应晶体管具有很好的沟道控制能力,可以减小短沟道效应。
然而,鳍式场效应管器件工作时容易发生漏电现象,从而影响鳍式场效应管器件的电学性能。如何提高鳍式场效应管的电学性能,成为亟需解决的问题。
发明内容

可选的,去除位于层间介质层上阻挡层的步骤包括:

图16是本发明鳍式场效应管一实施例的剖面结构示意图。
具体实施方式
根据背景技术形成的鳍式场效应管的电学性能有待提高。现结合一种鳍式场效应管对鳍式场效应管的电学性能有待提高的原因进行分析。
参考图1,图1为鳍式场效应管形成方法一步骤的结构示意图,所述鳍式场效应管的形成方法,包括:提供衬底100,所述衬底100上的具有多个分立的鳍部110;形成位于所述鳍部110露出的衬底100上的隔离结构120,所述隔离结构120覆盖所述鳍部110的部分侧壁表面,且所述隔离结构120顶部低于鳍部110顶部;形成横跨所述鳍部110的伪栅极(图未示),所述伪栅极覆盖鳍部110的部分顶部和侧壁;在所述伪栅极的侧壁上形成侧墙150;在位于所述伪栅极两侧的鳍部110中形成源漏掺杂区140;形成覆盖所述源漏掺杂区140和伪栅极的刻蚀停止层130;形成覆盖所述伪栅极和所述鳍部110的层间介质层131;去除所述伪栅极,在层间介质层131中形成开口115;在所述开口115中形成界面介质层111;在所述界面介质层111和所述层间介质层131上形成栅介质层160;在所述栅介质层160上形成功函数层170;在所述功函数层170上形成阻挡层180;在所述开口115中填充金属,形成金属栅极(图未示);形成所述阻挡层180之后,进行退火处理。
由于退火处理的步骤中会产生较高的温度,使得形成的阻挡层180产生应力,继而使得鳍部110上的界面介质层111也产生应力形变,从而发生漏电现象,因此,降低了鳍式场效应管的电学性能。
此外,退火处理中所述阻挡层180受热容易发生膨胀,由于阻挡层180和栅介质层160的膨胀系数不同,受热过程中阻挡层180和栅介质层160相互作用产生应力,从而也会使得与栅介质层160接触的界面介质层111产生应力形变,因而导致发生漏电现象。
为了解决所述技术问题,本发明提供一种鳍式场效应管的形成方法,包括:提供半导体衬底,所述半导体衬底上具有多个分立的鳍部;形成横跨所述鳍部的伪栅极,所述伪栅极覆盖鳍部的部分顶部和侧壁;形成覆盖所述伪栅极和所述鳍部的层间介质层;去除所述伪栅极,在层间介质层中形成开口;在所述开口中形成栅介质层;在所述栅介质层和所述层间介质层上形成阻挡层;去除位于层间介质层上的栅介质层和阻挡层;去除位于层间介质层上的栅介质层和阻挡层的步骤之后,进行退火处理;去除所述开口中的阻挡层;在所述开口中形成金属栅极。
本发明在进行退火处理之前,将位于层间介质层上的栅介质层和阻挡层去除,这样做的目的是为了减小退火时阻挡层所产生的应力,从而减小位于衬底上的界面介质层退火时产生的应力,进而改善了界面介质层应力形变而导致的漏电问题,因此,提高了鳍式场效应管的电学性能。
此外,将位于层间介质层上的栅介质层和阻挡层去除,有利于使得退火时所述栅介质层和阻挡层产生的应力得到释放,从而减小了退火时阻挡层产生的应力,缓解了界面介质层产生的应力形变,进而改善了漏电问题。

其中,所述源漏掺杂区340的材料为SiC时,所述源漏掺杂区340还用于向沟道区提供拉应力作用,提高NMOS器件的载流子迁移率;所述源漏掺杂区340的材料为SiGe时,所述源漏掺杂区340还用于向沟道区提供压应力作用,提高PMOS器件的载流子迁移率。
本实施例中,在所述隔离结构320和鳍部310上还具有刻蚀停止层330。
所述刻蚀停止层330用于在形成鳍式场效应管接触孔的工艺中定义接触孔的刻蚀停止位置。所述刻蚀停止层330的材料是氮化硅;所述刻蚀停止层330的厚度范围是8纳米至30纳米。
所述鳍式场效应管还包括:位于鳍部310上的界面介质层311;位于界面介质层311表面的栅介质层360;位于栅介质层360表面的第一功函数层370;位于第一功函数层370表面的阻挡层380。
本实施例中,所述界面介质层311的材料为氧化硅,所述界面介质层311的厚度范围为:5埃至10埃;所述栅介质层260的材料为氧化铪或者氧化镧铪。所述栅介质层260的厚度范围为:10埃至30埃。所述第一功函数层370的材料为氮化钛或者氮化钽,所述第一功函数层370的厚度范围为:8埃至50埃;所述阻挡层380的材料为硅,所述阻挡层380的厚度范围为:20埃至50埃。所述第一功函数层370的作用是用来调节鳍式场效应管的阈值电压。
本实施例中,所述鳍式场效应管的后续形成工艺中还包括退火处理,由于所述阻挡层380位于所述开口313中,退火处理工艺中的高温不会使得所述阻挡层380产生很大的应力作用,进而使得位于鳍部310上的界面介质层311不会因阻挡层380的应力作用而产生形变,发生漏电现象,从而提高了鳍式场效应管的电学性能。
需要说明的是,由于所述阻挡层380位于所述开口313中,有利于使得退火时所述栅介质层360和阻挡层380产生的应力得到释放,从而减小了退火时阻挡层380产生的应力,进而缓解了界面介质层311产生的应力形变,从而改善了漏电问题。
虽然本发明披露如上,但本发明并非限定于此。任何本领域技术人员,在不脱离本发明的精神和范围内,均可作各种更动与修改,因此本发明的保护范围应当以权利要求所限定的范围为准。
