Description
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to semiconductor technology, and more particularly, to a semiconductor structure and a method for forming the semiconductor structure.
Background
With further advances in semiconductor technology, integrated circuit devices are becoming smaller in size, and conventional fin field effect transistors (finfets) have limitations in further increasing the operating current. In particular, since only the regions of the fin near the top surface and the sidewalls are used as the channel region, the volume of the fin used as the channel region is smaller, which limits the operating current of the fin field effect transistor. Therefore, a gate-all-around (GAA) structure field effect transistor is proposed, so that the volume for serving as a channel region is increased, and the operating current of the fin type field effect transistor with the channel gate-around structure is further increased, thereby improving the performance of the semiconductor device.
However, the performance of semiconductor devices is still in need of improvement.

Compared with the prior art, the technical scheme of the invention has the following beneficial effects:
in the semiconductor structure provided by the technical scheme of the invention, the source doped layer is positioned on the substrate surface of the first region, and the gate structure is positioned on the side wall surface of the vertical nanowire and the substrate surface of the second region, so that the source doped layer overlapped with the gate structure on the substrate surface of the second region is reduced in the direction vertical to the substrate surface, thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance formed between the gate structure and the source doped layer, and further improving the performance of the semiconductor structure.
Accordingly, in the method for forming a semiconductor structure provided by the technical scheme of the invention, since the source doped layer is formed on the substrate surface of the first region and the gate structure is formed on the sidewall surface of the vertical nanowire and the substrate surface of the second region, the overlapping part between the source doped layer and the gate structure of the second region is reduced in the direction vertical to the substrate surface, thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance formed between the gate structure and the source doped layer and further improving the performance of the semiconductor structure.
Further, since the buffer layer is formed on the surface of the substrate before the source doped material layer is formed, on one hand, the buffer layer can be used as an etching stop layer, and through the buffer layer, when the source doped material layer of the second region is removed subsequently, the damage of the etching process for removing the source doped material layer of the second region to the substrate can be reduced, so that the performance of the semiconductor structure is improved; on the other hand, the material of the buffer layer can be selected to enable the crystal lattice of the source-drain doped layer formed on the buffer layer to be matched with the crystal lattice of the substrate, so that the performance of the semiconductor structure is further improved.

fig. 2 to 8 are schematic cross-sectional views illustrating steps of a method for forming a semiconductor structure according to an embodiment of the present invention.
Detailed Description
As described in the background, the performance of semiconductor devices is still in need of improvement. The analysis will now be described with reference to specific examples.
Note that "surface" in this specification is used to describe a relative positional relationship in space, and is not limited to whether or not it is in direct contact.
Fig. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor structure.
Referring to fig. 1, the semiconductor structure includes: a substrate 100, and a source doped layer 110 on the substrate 100; the semiconductor device comprises a channel column 130 positioned on the source doped layer 110 and a first dielectric layer 120 positioned on the surface of the source doped layer 110, wherein the first dielectric layer 120 covers part of the side wall surface of the channel column 130.
In a direction perpendicular to the substrate, the tops of the channel pillars 130 have doped regions (not shown) whose channel pillar 130 portions function as drains for vertical nanowire transistors.
The source doped layer 110 serves as the source of the vertical nanowire transistor. Thus, a channel can be formed in the channel pillar 130.
The semiconductor structure further includes: the gate structure 140 is located on the surface of the first dielectric layer 120 and on the sidewall surface of the channel pillar 130; a first conductive plug 161 located on the source doped layer 110, the first conductive plug 161 being electrically interconnected with the source doped layer 110; a second conductive plug 162 located on the top surface of the channel pillar 130, the second conductive plug 162 being electrically interconnected with the channel pillar 130 portion of the doped region; a third conductive plug 163 on the gate structure 140 on the surface of the first dielectric layer 120, the third conductive plug 163 being electrically interconnected with the gate structure 140; a second dielectric layer 150 surrounding the gate structure 140, the channel pillar 130, the first conductive plug 161, the second conductive plug 162, and the third conductive plug 163.
However, in the above structure, since the source doping layer 110, the first dielectric layer 120, and the gate structure 140 on the surface of the substrate 100 overlap in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 100, parasitic capacitance is easily generated between the overlapped source doping layer 110 and gate structure 140, thereby making the performance of the semiconductor structure poor.
