Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit, and more particularly, to a method for manufacturing an embedded sige epitaxial layer.
Background
After a germanium-silicon growth area is defined and a groove is formed in a side wall adopted in the existing 28nm technology node embedded germanium-silicon epitaxial layer growth process, the thickness of silicon nitride (SiN) of a hard mask layer (HM) remained at the top corner of a grid structure of a PMOS (P-channel metal oxide semiconductor) is smaller than that of silicon nitride (SiN) of the hard mask layer (HM)The selection ratio of the germanium silicon to the HM SiN is reduced, and germanium silicon residues are easily grown at the top corner of the grid structure of the PMOS. Secondly, after the growth of the germanium and silicon is finished, in order to strip the SiN on the top end and the side wall of the grid structure of the NMOS, the action time of phosphoric acid is as high as 6 minutes, and finally, the SiN is removed, and meanwhile, the silicon loss of the active region is caused to be as high as or greater than the standard value of the Si in the area of the NMOS>Furthermore, to completely strip away the SiN, phosphoric acid has exposed the polysilicon gate and the gate dielectric layer, such as the gate oxide layer, during an Over Etch (OE) phase, which can result in loss of critical dimensions of the gate structure and reduced gate oxide reliability (GOI).
Referring to the drawings, the following description of the prior art is provided, as shown in fig. 1A to fig. 1F, which are schematic device structures in steps of a method for manufacturing an embedded sige-si epitaxial layer; the manufacturing method of the existing embedded germanium-silicon epitaxial layer comprises the following steps:
step one, as shown in fig. 1A, a semiconductor substrate 101 for integrating PMOS and NMOS is provided. In general, a well region is further formed on the semiconductor substrate 101, the well region includes a P-well 103 and an N-well 104, the NMOS is formed on the P-well 103, and the PMOS is formed on the N-well 104.
A plurality of gate structures formed by overlapping gate dielectric layers and polysilicon gates 105 are formed on the semiconductor substrate 101, a first hard mask layer 106 is formed on the top of each gate structure, and the first hard mask layer 106 is made of silicon nitride; first sidewalls 107 are formed on the sides of the gate structure, and the material of the first sidewalls 107 includes silicon nitride.
Conventionally, the semiconductor substrate 101 is a silicon substrate.
A field oxide layer 102 is formed on the semiconductor substrate 101, a plurality of active regions are isolated by the field oxide layer 102, and each of the PMOS and each of the NMOS are formed in the corresponding active region.
The gate dielectric layer is a gate oxide layer or a high dielectric constant layer.
Step two, as shown in fig. 1B, a second hard mask layer 108 composed of a silicon nitride layer is formed.
And step three, as shown in fig. 1C, performing a photolithography process to form a photoresist 109 pattern, wherein the photoresist 10 pattern opens the formation region of the PMOS and covers the formation region of the NMOS.
And etching the second hard mask layer 108 to expose the surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 between the gate structures. It can be seen that, in the process of etching the second hard mask layer 108, since the first hard mask layer 106 and the first sidewall 107 are both made of silicon nitride, the first hard mask layer 106 and the first sidewall 107 are also damaged and the silicon nitride overlapping thickness at the top corner of the gate structure is reduced, that is, the thickness d101 at the dashed circle 111 is reduced.
And then, performing plasma etching self-alignment on the semiconductor substrate 101 between the second hard mask layers 108 corresponding to the side surfaces of the gate structure to form the groove 110a, where in fig. 1C, the groove 110a is separately denoted by a mark 110 a.
Typically, the recess 110a is U-shaped or bowl-shaped, and the etching process consumes a portion of the thickness of the first hard mask layer 106, the second hard mask layer 108 and the first sidewall 107 in the PMOS region at the same time.
Then, as shown in fig. 1D, the photoresist 109 is removed. In the prior art 28nm technology node process, after the groove 110a is formed, the d101 is usually reduced toThis makes the selectivity of the sige epitaxy at the top corners of the gate structure less good, which tends to form sige residues. FIG. 2A is a photograph corresponding to FIG. 1D, and it can be seen that D101 at two top corners of the polysilicon gate 105 are ^ and/or greater than>And &>A in FIG. 2A denotes `>
Then, wet etching is performed on the semiconductor substrate 101 to make the shape of the groove 110 be sigma-shaped; typically, the chemical solution used for wet etching includes a tetramethylammonium hydroxide solution (TMAH).
As shown in fig. 1E, an epitaxial growth of sige is performed to form an embedded sige epitaxial layer 112 in the recess 110.
The germanium-silicon epitaxial growth is selective germanium-silicon epitaxial growth. From the thinner thickness of d101 in fig. 1C, the top corner of the gate structure forms sige residues.
Step four, as shown in fig. 1F, a phosphoric acid wet etching process is adopted to simultaneously strip the remaining first hard mask layer 106, the second hard mask layer 108 and the first sidewall 107. Referring back to fig. 1E, d102 corresponds to the maximum thickness of the first hard mask layer 106 and the second hard mask layer 108, and the phosphoric acid wet etching process needs to ensure that silicon nitride corresponding to the thickness d102 is removed, so that the phosphoric acid wet etching process needs a longer etching time, and the longer phosphoric acid wet etching process may cause a loss of a surface material of the semiconductor substrate 101 and a loss of a side material of the polysilicon gate 105, and may also adversely affect a gate dielectric layer such as a gate oxide layer.
Comparing the width d103 of the polysilicon gate 105 of fig. 1E with the width d103a of the polysilicon gate 105 of fig. 1F, it can be seen that the width d103a is smaller than the width d103, which may cause a loss of the critical dimension of the polysilicon gate 105.
As shown in fig. 2B, is a photograph of a formation region of the PMOS corresponding to fig. 1F; it can be seen that sige residues 112a are formed at the top corners of the polysilicon gate 105, i.e., at the regions 111.
FIG. 2C is a photograph of a top view of the substrate shown in FIG. 1F after the steps corresponding to the substrate have been completed; as can be seen, the polysilicon gates 105 are all in a strip structure, and germanium silicon residues 112a are formed at top corners of the polysilicon gates 105 in the PMOS formation region.

Fifthly, a dielectric stripping process is carried out, the dielectric stripping process is used for stripping the second hard mask layer and the first hard mask layer 6 in the NMOS forming area and the second hard mask layer and the first hard mask layer 6 in the PMOS forming area, and the dielectric stripping process comprises the following steps:
step 51, as shown in fig. 4F, performing a second silicon nitride etching by using a phosphoric acid wet etching process, where the second silicon nitride etching removes both the first hard mask layer 6 and the second silicon nitride layer 9 that are not covered by the first silicon dioxide layer 8.
It can be seen that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the superimposed layers of the second silicon nitride layer 9 and the first hard mask layer 6 are not etched at the same time for a long time, so that the material loss of the semiconductor substrate 1 and the loss of the side material of the polysilicon gate 5 caused by the long actual silicon nitride etching in the prior art can be eliminated. In contrast, in the embodiment of the present invention, during the process of removing the second silicon nitride layer 9 and the first hard mask layer 6 of the PMOS formation region that has been thinned in step 33, both the semiconductor substrate 1 and the polysilicon gate 5 are protected by the first silicon dioxide layer 8, so that the material loss of the semiconductor substrate 1 and the loss of the side material of the polysilicon gate 5 are not generated.
