Abstract

The invention discloses a method for manufacturing a T-shaped gate electrode on the surface of a semiconductor, which is suitable for the production of microelectronic devices such as HEMT and the like. The method includes the steps of digging a groove on an adhesive layer on the surface of a semiconductor according to the top width of a T-shaped electrode, forming a dielectric side wall in the groove by deposition and directional etching methods, depositing metal, and stripping the adhesive layer and the metal layer outside a gate region to leave a final T-shaped gate electrode. The invention can process the pattern with wider T-shaped top size to obtain thinner electrode bottom surface. It can be processed with a slightly wider lithographic dimension to achieve a gate length approaching the optical limit.

Description

Method for making T-grid on surface of semiconductor
The present invention relates to a kind of method that in the middle of production high mobility transistor (HEMT) and metal-semiconductor field effect transistor microelectronic components such as (MESFET), adopts at semiconductor surface manufacturing T shape gate electrode.
In the middle of the development of microelectronic components such as existing HEMT and MESFET, for characteristics such as the frequency that improves them and noise factors, it is long to require to shorten grid as possible on the one hand, reduce the electric capacity between grid and source, the leakage, make every effort to reduce resistance and grid source resistance on the other hand again, the gate electrode structure that is called " T shape grid " or " Mushroom Gate " (following general designation " T shape grid " structure) of prior art exploitation, above-mentioned development requirement produces in order to adapt to just.
Have the method for making T shape gate electrode at semiconductor surface now, as previously proposing by people such as P.Chao, at the two-layer or three layers of glue-line that the electron beam sensitive degree is differed of semiconductor surface coating, narrow cavity at the bottom of the generation top width after electron beam exposure develops, just form T shape gate electrode (" Electron Beam Fabrication of GaAs Low-Noise MESFET Using a New Trilayer Resist Technique " after removing whole glue-lines through depositing metal and with lift-off technology again at semiconductor surface, IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, Vol.ED-32, No.6, Jun.1985, pp1042-1046).Obviously, this technology only is applicable to the technology of electron beam graphics processing.The employing tri-layer masking system that U.S. Pat 5155053 proposes produces narrow cavity at the bottom of the top width in conjunction with isotropism and anisotropic two-step reaction ion etching, subsequently equally again through depositing metal and lift-off mask formation T shape gate electrode.It must adopt the meticulous design size at the narrow end of T shape gate electrode in the glue mask pattern processing against corrosion of end face.Although this patent is claimed the figure manufacturing process that this technology is suitable for and is comprised broad range such as focused ion beam, electron beam, light beam and X ray, yet, if adopt means of photolithography processing, owing to be subjected to the constraint of litho pattern size, the limit that makes the bottom width of T shape gate electrode be difficult to approach 1/2 optical wavelength.Although in the figure process technology that microelectronics is produced so far, means such as focused ion beam, electron beam and X ray have clear superiority aspect fineness, but because their cost costliness and operating efficiency are low, limited their extensive use, particularly influence their a large amount of being applied to and carry out direct figure processing in the microelectronic product manufacturing, photoetching technique was both cheap and easy and simple to handle, was still the means that at present a large amount of microelectronic products (comprising many high-performance new products) are still needed and relied in directly figure is processed.Continue the ultimate precision that utilizes photoetching technique and try hard to realize it, make microelectronic product can keep lower cost and higher production efficiency, can obtain satisfied performance again, be still the target that the present stage people are pursued.
Purpose of the present invention is exactly in order to realize above-mentioned pursuit, will adopt the bottom width of the narrower T shape gate electrode of figure processing dimension realization of broad in microelectronic components such as HEMT and MESFET are made, the figure processing dimension of allowing with photoetching technique realizes than meticulousr T shape gate electrode bottom width.
Realize that the technical measures that purpose of the present invention is taked are, the step that method comprised that the present invention makes T shape gate electrode at semiconductor surface is: 1. sprawl the ground floor material at semiconductor surface, its thickness is no more than the predetermined altitude of T shape gate electrode; 2. form in the ground floor material that 1. step is sprawled according to the preliminary dimension of T shape gate electrode end face and dig through holostrome or dig the groove hole of staying the part bed thickness; 3. at deposit second layer insulating material on the ground floor material and in the groove hole that is 2. forming through step; 4. with the anisotropic etching method along removing perpendicular to the direction of semiconductor surface at the ground floor material surface and at the second layer insulating material of groove hole bottom deposit, stay through step ground floor material and the inwall groove hole that attaches second layer insulating material 2.; 5. the semiconductor surface at T shape gate electrode formation position is exposed at the bottom of making the ground floor material attenuate of staying outside the groove hole and making the groove hole; 6. depositing conductive material inside and outside the groove hole; 7. peel off whole ground floor materials and at the electric conducting material of its surface deposition from semiconductor surface.
Method of the present invention is to carry out figure processing and grooving by the end face design size of T shape gate electrode broad in 2. in step, and through step 7. after, owing to there is insulative sidewall to fill, make that what form at semiconductor surface is the T shape grid that has than the meticulousr bottom surface of end face size.Can be applicable to multiple figure process technologies such as focused ion beam, electron beam, X ray and optical lithography on the methodological principle of the present invention, and all have and to make the meticulousr effect of T shape gate electrode bottom more used figure processing dimension self, but if adopt optical lithography techniques, in the size range that optical lithography techniques is allowed, carry out figure processing, can make the bottom width of T shape grid approach the ultimate precision of optics, this is low cost, high efficiency for realizing, be again microelectronic component production, have more Special Significance with superior performance.
