It should be noted that sharing same source and drain doping area in the present embodiment, between adjacent transistor, that is to say, that institute Source and drain doping area is stated on the substrate 110 between neighboring gate structures, therefore the stressor layers 140 are located at adjacent pseudo- grid structure On substrate 110 between 130.
When formed semiconductor structure is used to form PMOS device, the material of the stressor layers 140 is the germanium silicon of p-type doping Or silicon, Doped ions can be B, Ga or In;When formed semiconductor structure is used to form NMOS device, the stressor layers 140 Material be n-type doping carbon silicon or silicon, Doped ions can be P, As or Sb.
The etching stop layer 150 plays etching stopping in the forming process in subsequent touch hole, to reach guarantor Protect the purpose in the source and drain doping area.The source and drain doping area is between neighboring gate structures, therefore the etching stop layer 150 are located at least on the substrate 110 between neighboring gate structures.And in the present embodiment, the source and drain doping area has stress Layer 140, so the etching stop layer 150 at least covers the stressor layers 140 between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130.
Since technique limits, the etching stop layer 150 is not only located on the substrate 110 between neighboring gate structures, also It extends on the side wall of the gate structure, i.e., the described etching stop layer 150 also covers the side wall.It is described in the present embodiment Etching stop layer 150 is located in the stressor layers 140 and dummy gate structure 130.In addition, in the present embodiment, the grid knot Also there is side wall, so the etching stop layer 150 also covers the surface of the side wall on structure side wall.
In the present embodiment, the material of the etching stop layer 150 is silicon nitride, can by way of atomic layer deposition shape At.In other embodiments of the invention, the material of the etching stop layer can also be the other materials such as silicon oxynitride, can also lead to The other modes such as chemical vapor deposition or physical vapour deposition (PVD) are crossed to be formed.
With reference to Fig. 6, protective layer 161 is formed, the protective layer 161 covers the etching stop layer 150 between gate structure, and Etching stop layer 150 on gate structure sidewall described in exposed portion.
The protective layer 161 is used to protect the etching stop layer 150 between gate structure, prevents the etching stop layer 150 are influenced by subsequent technique.
In the present embodiment, the protective layer 161 is bottom anti-reflection layer.In other embodiments of the invention, the protective layer It can also be polysilicon layer, organic dielectric layer, spun-on carbon layer or amorphous carbon layer.In other embodiments of the invention, the protection The material of layer can also be the fluid or semi-fluid materials that can be used as interlayer dielectric layer after solidifying.
In the present embodiment, the thickness of the protective layer 161 is greater thanThe thickness of the protective layer 161 should not be too small.Institute If the thickness for stating protective layer is too small, the protective layer 161 may be will affect to etching stop layer between neighboring gate structures 150 protective capability is unfavorable for preventing the etching stop layer 150 impaired.
Specifically, the step of forming protective layer 161 includes: to form protected material bed of material (not shown), the guarantor Protective material layer is filled between neighboring gate structures, and covers the gate structure;It returns and carves the protected material bed of material, exposed portion Etching stop layer 150 on the gate structure sidewall.
The protected material bed of material is used to provide basis for the formation of the protective layer.The step of forming the protected material bed of material It include: that the protected material bed of material is formed by way of spin coating.Due to the reduction with device size, between neighboring gate structures Gap width is smaller and smaller;As shown in fig. 6, the width in gap 181 is smaller and smaller between adjacent puppet grid structure 130.So passing through Spin coating mode forms the protected material bed of material, can reduce gap between the adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 of the protected material bed of material filling 181 difficulty is conducive to the gap 181 between the adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 of the protected material bed of material filling full phase.
The step of carving the protected material bed of material is returned, for making the top of formed protective layer 161 lower than the gate structure Top, thus expose on the gate structure sidewall far from 110 side of substrate partial etching stop-layer 150, after being The reduction processing of continuous exposed etching stop layer 150 provides artistic face.
In the present embodiment, returns and carve the protected material bed of material to reduce the height at the top of the protective layer protected material bed of material, reveal Partial etching stop-layer 150 on 130 side wall of dummy gate structure out.Specifically, can be returned by way of wet etching quarter The protected material bed of material.
Return carve the protected material bed of material depth should not it is too big also should not be too small.Return the depth of the quarter protected material bed of material such as Fruit is too big, then the thickness of remaining formed protective layer 161 is too small, may will affect the protective layer 161 to neighboring gate structures Between on substrate etching stop layer 150 protective capability, the possibility that the etching stop layer 150 is damaged may be will increase, It is unfavorable for expanding the process window in subsequent touch hole, is unfavorable for the raising of yield;If returning the depth for carving the protected material bed of material Too small, then the thickness of remaining formed protective layer 161 is too big, exposes the face of etching stop layer 150 on the gate structure sidewall Product is very little, may will affect subsequent being thinned to the etching stop layer 150 exposed, be unfavorable between the neighboring gate structures of gap The depth-to-width ratio in gap 181 is unfavorable for reducing the filling difficulty of subsequent interlayer dielectric layer.
Specifically, 181 depth of gap between depth and neighboring gate structures is carved in returning for the protected material bed of material in the present embodiment The ratio of degree in 20:100 to 95:100 range, that is, return carve after the protective layer 161 with a thickness of between neighboring gate structures In 5% to 80% range of 181 depth of gap.
It with reference to Fig. 7, is formed after the protective layer 161, reduction processing is carried out to the etching stop layer 150 of exposing 162。
The reduction processing 162 is for removing separate 110 side of substrate, etching stopping on the gate structure sidewall The segment thickness of layer 150, thus expand opening size of the gap 181 far from 110 side of substrate between neighboring gate structures, And then reduce the depth-to-width ratio in gap 181 between neighboring gate structures, reduce the technology difficulty of subsequent filling interlayer dielectric layer.
Due to being covered with the protective layer 161 on the etching stop layer 150 between neighboring gate structures, so described be thinned Processing 162 can only remove the partial etching stop-layer 150 that the protective layer 161 exposes and carry out, and will not influence neighboring gates The thickness of partial etching stop-layer 150 between structure on substrate 110 will not influence between neighboring gate structures on substrate 110 The etching stopping ability of partial etching stop-layer 150.
Specifically, the protective layer 161 is located in the stressor layers 140 between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 in the present embodiment, So the reduction processing 162 can only carry out the partial etching stop-layer 150 on 130 side wall of dummy gate structure, not It will affect the partial etching stop-layer 150 between the protective layer 161 and the stressor layers 140.
In the present embodiment, the material of the etching stop layer 150 is silicon nitride, so the reduction processing 162 can lead to The mode for crossing plasma etching carries out.Specifically, the plasma pair including at least one of C-F base and HBr can be passed through The etching stop layer 150 carries out the reduction processing 162.
In other embodiments of the invention, the reduction processing can also be carried out by way of wet etching.Specifically, subtracting Used etching solution is the mixed solution (HF/ of phosphoric acid, hydrofluoric acid (HF) or hydrofluoric acid and ethylene glycol during thin processing DG one of) or a variety of.
The etch amount of the reduction processing 162 should not it is too big also should not be too small.If the etch amount of the reduction processing 162 It is too big, then the gate structure may be impacted, will increase the impaired possibility of the gate structure, be unfavorable for yield It improves;If the etch amount of the reduction processing is too small, it may will affect and expand 181 width of gap between neighboring gate structures Effect, be unfavorable for expand neighboring gate structures between gap 181 depth-to-width ratio, be unfavorable for reducing filling out for subsequent interlayer dielectric layer Fill technology difficulty.Specifically, the etch amount of the reduction processing 162 exists in the present embodimentIt arrivesRange.
It should be noted that according to the concrete technology ability and formed semiconductor structure that form the semiconductor structure Specific design, set the etch amount of the reduction processing 162, thus reach interlayer dielectric layer filling capacity improve and protection Gate structure is taken into account.
In the present embodiment, the protective layer 161 be bottom anti-reflection layer, can not subsequent realization adjacent semiconductor constructs it Between, the electrical isolation between adjacent metal, therefore refer to Fig. 8, the forming method further include: the reduction processing 162 it Afterwards, formed before interlayer dielectric layer, remove the protective layer 162, with prevent the protective layer 162 influence subsequent technique into Row, prevents performance degradation caused by the presence of the protective layer 162.Specifically, the protective layer 161 is bottom anti-reflective Layer, it is possible to remove the protective layer by way of ashing or wet etching.
But in other embodiments of the invention, the protective layer can also be the stream that can be used as interlayer dielectric layer after solidifying Body or semi-fluid materials.When can be used as the fluid or semi-fluid materials of interlayer dielectric layer after the protective layer is to solidify, The protective layer can not be removed, makes the protective layer as a part of the interlayer dielectric layer.
In conjunction with reference Fig. 9, after the reduction processing 162 (as shown in Figure 7), formation be filled in neighboring gate structures it Between interlayer dielectric layer 170.
The interlayer dielectric layer 170 fills the gap 181 between full neighboring gate structures, for realizing adjacent semiconductor knot Electric isolution between structure, between adjacent metal.In addition, formed semiconductor structure has rear grid technique shape in the present embodiment At high-K metal gate structure, so the interlayer dielectric layer 170 is also used to define the ruler of formed high-K metal gate structure Very little and position.
Since the etching stop layer 150 on gate structure sidewall is through reduction processing 162, so for the gate structure side For etching stop layer 150 on wall, the thickness far from 110 side of substrate is smaller, the thickness close to 110 side of substrate Spend it is larger, i.e., far from the size on the vertical gate structure sidewall direction of etching stop layer 150 described in 110 side of substrate Less than the size on the vertical gate structure sidewall direction of etching stop layer 150 described in 110 side of substrate.And Etching stop layer 150 on the gate structure sidewall is ladder-like in single layer towards the surface of neighboring gate structures.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, etching stop layer 150 on pseudo- grid structure 130 (as shown in Figure 8) side wall, far from institute Processing of the part of substrate 110 by the reduction processing 162 is stated, so that thickness is smaller;Close to the substrate 110 part with And the part between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 in stressor layers 140, since the protection by the protective layer 162 is (such as Fig. 7 institute Show), so that thickness is larger;Therefore gap 181 is greater than far from the width of 110 side of substrate between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 Width close to 110 side of substrate, and the side wall in gap 181 is in that single layer is ladder-like between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130.
Due between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 gap 181 far from the 110 side width of substrate larger, adjacent puppet The depth-to-width ratio in gap 181 is smaller between grid structure 130, can be effectively reduced and fills out in gap 181 between adjacent pseudo- grid structure 130 The technology difficulty for filling interlayer dielectric layer 170 reduces the probability that cavity generates in the interlayer dielectric layer 170, improves inter-level dielectric The formation quality of layer 170 improves the yield for forming the semiconductor structure, improves the performance of formed semiconductor structure.
