Detailed Description
The embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to specific embodiments, and other advantages and effects of the present invention will be easily understood by those skilled in the art from the disclosure of the present specification. The invention is capable of other and different embodiments and of being practiced or of being carried out in various ways, and its several details are capable of modification in various respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Please refer to fig. 1 to 15. It should be noted that the drawings provided in the present embodiment are only schematic and illustrate the basic idea of the present invention, and although the drawings only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of the components in actual implementation may be changed arbitrarily, and the layout of the components may be more complicated.
Example one
Referring to fig. 1 to 15, the present embodiment provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device structure, which includes: the method comprises the following steps:
1) providing a semiconductor substrate 101 with a gate oxide layer 102 formed on the surface;
2) forming a patterned gate layer 103 and a barrier layer 104 covering the top of the gate layer 103 above the gate oxide layer 102;
3) performing a first ion implantation on the semiconductor substrate 101 to form a first doped region 105 in the semiconductor substrate 101, wherein the blocking layer 104 is configured to block ions from entering a region of the semiconductor substrate 101 below the gate layer 102 during the first ion implantation.
In step 1), referring to step S1 of fig. 1 and fig. 2 to 4, the semiconductor substrate 101 having the gate oxide layer 102 formed on the surface thereof is provided. Optionally, the semiconductor substrate 101 includes a silicon substrate.
As an example, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the semiconductor substrate 101 may be further divided into a High Voltage (HV) device region and a Low Voltage (LV) device region according to device design requirements. Fig. 3 shows the case of the high-voltage device region, and fig. 4 shows the case of the low-voltage device region. Optionally, the high voltage device region and the low voltage device region are separated by a shallow trench isolation structure, which is not shown in fig. 3 or fig. 4. Due to different device requirements, the thickness of the gate oxide layer 102 in the high-voltage device region is different from that in the low-voltage device region, and the thickness of the gate oxide layer 102 in the high-voltage device region is thicker than that of the gate oxide layer 102 in the low-voltage device region. Optionally, the thickness of the gate oxide layer 102 in the high voltage device region is about
Figure BDA0002725730800000051
On the other hand, the thickness of the gate oxide layer 102 in the low-voltage device region is about several tens of
Figure BDA0002725730800000053
As can be seen from fig. 3 and 4, in the high-voltage device region, the gate oxide layer 102 is distributed on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate 101, and in the low-voltage device region, the gate oxide layer 102 is distributed only under the gate layer 103, because the gate oxide layer 102 of the low-voltage device region is thin (about tens of thickness)
Figure BDA0002725730800000052
) And is consumed in the processes of gate etching, subsequent cleaning and the like.
As an example, a well region, which may be formed by furnace tube diffusion or ion implantation and is not shown in fig. 2, is further formed in the semiconductor substrate 101 on which the gate oxide layer 102 is formed.
In step 2), referring to step S2 of fig. 1 and fig. 2 to 4, a patterned gate layer 103 and a barrier layer 104 covering the top of the gate layer 103 are formed over the gate oxide layer 102.
As an example, the gate layer 103 includes a polysilicon layer, and the barrier layer 104 includes a silicon nitride layer. Optionally, the gate layer 103 has a thickness of about
Figure BDA0002725730800000054
On the other hand, the barrier layer 104 may have a thickness of about several hundred
Figure BDA0002725730800000056
For example 300 to
Figure BDA0002725730800000057
For semiconductor process with increasingly smaller feature sizes, the thickness of the gate layer 103 is further reduced to about 45nm with the line width reduction
Figure BDA0002725730800000055
From side to side and even thinnerDegree of the disease. The gate layer 103 with an excessively thin thickness cannot effectively act as an ion implantation barrier layer in the high-energy ion implantation process, and the barrier layer 104 is introduced to effectively block the high-energy ion implantation, so that ions outside the design are prevented from entering a gate oxide layer and a device channel region below the gate to influence the device performance. The material and thickness of the barrier layer 104 may also be adjusted accordingly according to the gate process and the ion implantation conditions.
As an example, as shown in fig. 2 to 4, the process of forming the gate layer 103 and the barrier layer 104 includes the following steps:
sequentially depositing a gate material layer 103a and a barrier material layer 104a over the semiconductor substrate 101;
forming a patterned photoresist layer 106 over the barrier material layer 104a by a photolithography process;
and forming the patterned gate layer 103 and the patterned barrier layer 104 by using the photoresist layer 106 as an etching mask through a dry etching process.
As an example, as shown in fig. 3, after the patterned gate layer 103 and the patterned barrier layer 104 are formed in the high-voltage device region by a dry etching process; as shown in fig. 4, after the patterned gate layer 103 and the patterned barrier layer 104 are formed by a dry etching process in the low-voltage device region.
As an example, as shown in fig. 2, an amorphous carbon layer 107 and an anti-reflective layer 108 are further formed between the barrier material layer 104a and the photoresist layer 106; a stress buffer layer 109 is further formed between the gate material layer 103a and the barrier material layer 104 a. Optionally, the anti-reflection layer 108 is a silicon oxynitride layer for playing a role of anti-reflection in the photolithography process; the stress buffer layer 109 is a silicon dioxide layer, and is used for solving the adhesion problem between the silicon nitride layer and the polysilicon layer due to stress.
As an example, in the dry etching process, the patterned amorphous carbon layer 107 may be etched by using the patterned photoresist layer 106 as an etching mask, and then the patterned amorphous carbon layer 107 may also be used as an etching mask to etch the gate layer 103 and the barrier layer 104. This is because the amorphous carbon layer 107 has a higher etching selectivity when etching silicon nitride and polysilicon than the photoresist layer 106, which can prevent the occurrence of insufficient photoresist during etching silicon nitride and polysilicon.
Optionally, the photoresist layer 106 has a thickness of about
Figure BDA0002725730800000061
On the other hand, the thickness of the anti-reflection layer 108 and the amorphous carbon layer 107 is about several hundreds of
Figure BDA0002725730800000062
The stress buffer layer 109 has a thickness of about several tens of a
Figure BDA0002725730800000063
The composition and thickness of each layer can also be adjusted according to the actual conditions of the process.
In step 3), please refer to step S3 of fig. 1 and fig. 5 to 10, a first ion implantation is performed on the semiconductor substrate 101 to form a first doped region 105 in the semiconductor substrate 101, and the blocking layer 104 is configured to block ions from entering a region of the semiconductor substrate 101 below the gate layer 102 during the first ion implantation.
As an example, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, after the gate layer 103 and the barrier layer 104 are formed by etching in step 2), a thermal oxide layer 110 is formed by thermal oxidation on the gate layer 103 made of a silicon material and the semiconductor substrate 101 in the low-voltage device region through a furnace process, and the thickness of the thermal oxide layer is about several tens of thicknesses
Figure BDA0002725730800000064
The thermal oxide layer 110 is also formed on the surface of the barrier layer 104 made of silicon nitride, but is relatively thin (less than)
Figure BDA0002725730800000065
). It is noted that, in the present embodiment, the thermal oxide layer 110, the stress buffer layer 109 and the gate oxide layer 102 are formedThe constituent materials are silicon dioxide and thus have no apparent boundaries in actual devices.
As an example, as shown in fig. 7, a first doping region 105 is formed in the semiconductor substrate 101 of the high-voltage device region by first ion implantation as shown by an arrow direction, and due to the blocking effect of the gate layer 103 and the blocking layer 104, a formation region of the first doping region 105 does not include a region of the semiconductor substrate 101 below the gate layer 102. Optionally, the first ion implantation forms a high voltage low doped drain region (HV LDD region) of the semiconductor device. In the low-voltage device region, as shown in fig. 8, the first doped region 105 is formed only in the high-voltage device region by ion implantation through the photoresist layer 105 a. Optionally, after the first ion implantation, a process of performing an annealing process on the first doped region 105 is further included. The injected ions are diffused and activated by repairing the crystal lattice damage through an annealing process, the annealing process comprises furnace tube annealing or laser annealing and other process methods, and the injected region is expanded in a certain transverse direction after the annealing process.
As an example, as shown in fig. 9 and 10, it is the case of the high voltage device region and the low voltage device region after the first ion implantation and annealing process. Wherein the first doped region 105 has been formed in the high voltage device region, and the photoresist layer 105a is also removed in the low voltage device region. In fig. 9 and 10, the thinner layer 110 of hot oxygen (less than that of the barrier layer 104) at the surface of the barrier layer 104 is also washed away by a dilute hydrofluoric acid solution
Figure BDA0002725730800000071
) The gate layer 103 and the thicker thermal oxide layer 110 of the semiconductor substrate 101 in the low-voltage device region remain to have a thickness of about several tens of a
Figure BDA0002725730800000072
As an example, as shown in fig. 11 to 15, after the first doping region 105 is formed, a process of forming a second doping region 111 in the low-voltage device region is further included; the process of forming the second doped region 111 includes the following steps:
removing the barrier layer 104;
and in the low-voltage device area, performing second ion implantation on the semiconductor substrate 101 by using the gate layer 103 as a barrier layer of the ion implantation, and forming a second doped area 111 in the semiconductor substrate 101, wherein the distribution area of the second doped area 111 does not include the area of the semiconductor substrate 101 below the gate layer 103.
As an example, as shown in fig. 9 to 12, the barrier layer 104 made of a silicon nitride material is removed by a phosphoric acid wet etching process in the high-voltage device region and the low-voltage device region.
As an example, as shown in fig. 13 and 14, before the second ion implantation, a process of forming a sidewall layer 112 on a sidewall of the gate layer 103 is further included. Optionally, the sidewall layer 112 is made of a silicon nitride material. The method for forming the sidewall layer 112 includes: a silicon nitride material layer is uniformly deposited on the semiconductor substrate 101, including the gate layer 103 and the sidewall, by a silicon nitride deposition process, the silicon nitride layers on the semiconductor substrate 101 and the gate layer 103 are removed by an anisotropic silicon nitride dry etching process, and the silicon nitride layer on the sidewall of the gate layer 103 is retained, thereby forming the sidewall layer 112.
As an example, as shown in fig. 15, a second doped region 111 is formed in the semiconductor substrate 101 of the low-voltage device region by a second ion implantation. The gate layer 103 and the sidewall layer 112 serve as a barrier layer for ion implantation in the second ion implantation process, and prevent ions outside the design from entering the channel layer below the gate layer 103. By introducing the sidewall layer 112, the shielding range of both sides of the gate layer 103 is expanded, and the implantation coverage area of the second ion implantation is adjusted. The sidewall layer 112 can also enhance electrical isolation between the gate layer 103 and a subsequently formed contact hole structure. After the second ion implantation process, a step of performing an annealing process on the second doped region 111 is also included. Compared with the first ion implantation process, the implantation energy of the second ion implantation is lower, the ion implantation can be effectively blocked by the gate layer 103, and the formed second doped region 111 is shallower than the first doped region 105. Optionally, the second ion implantation forms a low voltage low doped drain region (LV LDD region) of the semiconductor device. In the process of performing the second ion implantation on the low-voltage device region, the second ion implantation may also be performed simultaneously in the high-voltage device region, or the second ion implantation may also be blocked by a photoresist. In this embodiment, through two ion implantation processes with different energies, respective LDD regions are formed in the high voltage device region and the low voltage device region, and the high voltage device process and the low voltage device process are effectively integrated in the same device process. In addition, the preparation method of the embodiment can also be used in other process technologies such as a 3D NAND CMOS wafer, and the like, and is also used for solving the problem that the gate structure in the existing process cannot effectively block the implantation of high-energy high-voltage low-doped drain ions. It should be further noted that, in the present embodiment, the blocking layer 104 is introduced to block the high-voltage low-doped drain ion implantation, but in other embodiments of the present invention, the blocked ion implantation process is not limited to the high-voltage low-doped drain ion implantation, and may be any other high-energy implantation process with a thinner gate layer.
As an example, after the second doping region is formed, a process of forming a source region and a drain region in the semiconductor substrate is further included. Optionally, the source region and the drain region are formed by an ion implantation process, and a self-aligned metal silicide layer (salicide) is formed in the source region and the drain region. In addition, after the process, the structures such as an interlayer dielectric layer, a contact hole structure, a metal wiring layer and the like can be further formed by adopting a conventional back-end process so as to realize the electrical connection between the high-voltage device area and the low-voltage device area.
Example two
Referring to fig. 3 and 7, the present embodiment provides a semiconductor device structure, including:
a semiconductor substrate 101 having a gate oxide layer 102 formed on a surface thereof;
a patterned gate layer 103 located above the gate oxide layer 102 and a barrier layer 104 covering the top of the gate layer 103;
a first doped region formed in the semiconductor substrate, a distribution region of the first doped region excluding a region of the semiconductor substrate below the gate layer.
As shown in fig. 3, the gate oxide layer 102 is located on the surface of the semiconductor substrate 101. Alternatively, shown in fig. 3 is a high voltage device region of a semiconductor device. And the gate layer 103 and the barrier layer 104 are patterned by dry etching. As shown in fig. 7, the first doping region 105 is formed by high-energy ion implantation, and the distribution region of the first doping region 105 does not include the region of the semiconductor substrate 101 below the gate layer 103. In the semiconductor device structure provided by this embodiment, the blocking layer 104 is introduced to effectively block high-energy ion implantation, and prevent ions outside the design from entering the gate oxide layer 102 and the channel region below the gate layer 103.
As an example, the gate layer 103 includes a polysilicon layer, and the barrier layer 104 includes a silicon nitride layer. Optionally, the gate oxide layer 102 has a thickness of about

On the other hand, the thickness of the gate layer 103 is about

On the other hand, the barrier layer 104 may have a thickness of about several hundred

For example 300 to

By introducing the barrier layer 104, high-energy ion implantation can be effectively blocked, and ions outside the design are prevented from entering a gate oxide layer and a device channel region below the grid electrode to influence the device performance. The material and thickness of the barrier layer 104 may also be adjusted accordingly according to the gate process and the ion implantation conditions.
As an example, a stress buffer layer 109 is further formed between the gate layer 103 and the barrier layer 104. The stress buffer layer 109 is a silicon dioxide layer, and is used to solve the adhesion problem between the barrier layer 104 made of silicon nitride and the gate layer 103 made of polysilicon due to stress.

According to the invention, the barrier layer for ion implantation is introduced at the top of the gate layer, so that ions during high-energy ion implantation can not be implanted into a channel region below the gate layer under the condition that the characteristic size of a semiconductor manufacturing process is reduced and the gate layer is thin; in addition, the invention also effectively integrates the high-voltage device region and the low-voltage device region in the same device structure.
