在半导体衬底10的表面区域,设置着控制存储单元阵列MCA的控制电路101。控制电路101例如由CMOS电路构成。CMOS电路也可设置在P型阱或N型阱,所述P型阱或N型阱设置在半导体衬底10的表面区域。在控制电路101的上方,设置着包含多个存储单元的存储单元阵列MCA。
在位于控制电路101上方的多晶硅层102上,形成着多个NAND串NS。具体来说,在多晶硅层102上,形成着作为选择栅极线SGS发挥功能的多个布线层110、作为字线WL发挥功能的多个布线层111(字线WL0~WL7)、及作为选择栅极线SGD发挥功能的多个布线层112。
布线层110由例如4层形成,由多个NAND串NS电连接到共同的选择栅极线SGS,作为2个选择晶体管ST2的栅极电极发挥功能。
布线层111由例如8层形成,在每层电连接到共同的字线WL。
布线层112由例如4层形成,连接到与每个NAND串NS对应的选择栅极线SGD,分别作为1个选择晶体管ST1的栅极电极发挥功能。
存储孔113以贯通布线层110、111、112,到达多晶硅层102的方式形成。在存储孔113的侧面,依序形成着阻挡绝缘层114、电荷累积膜115、及栅极绝缘膜116。在存储孔113内,嵌入着导电膜117。导电膜117作为NAND串NS的电流路径发挥功能。在导电膜117的上端,形成着作为位线BL发挥功能的布线层118。
如以上所述,在多晶硅层102上,依序积层选择晶体管ST2、多个存储单元晶体管MT0~MT7、及选择晶体管ST1,1个存储孔113对应1个NAND串NS。存储单元晶体管MT0~MT7对应导电膜117与字线WL0~WL7的交叉部分设置。
在图1中记载的纸面的深度方向排列着多个以上构成。由此,构成具有三维地排列的存储单元晶体管的存储单元阵列MCA。
图2是导电膜117贯通多个字线WL及层间绝缘层25的部分的放大剖视图。在图2中,将图1中省略的导电层WL间的绝缘层表示为绝缘层25。
在各导电层WL与导电膜117之间,从导电层WL侧起依序设置着阻挡绝缘层114、电荷累积膜115及栅极绝缘膜116。阻挡绝缘层114与导电层WL相接,栅极绝缘膜116与导电膜117相接,在阻挡绝缘层114与栅极绝缘膜116之间设置着电荷累积膜115。
导电膜117作为沟道发挥功能,导电层WL作为控制栅极发挥功能,电荷累积膜115作为累积从导电膜117注入的电荷的数据存储层而发挥功能。也就是说,在导电膜117与各导电层WL的交叉部分,形成着由控制栅极包围沟道周围的构造的存储单元。
本实施方式的半导体装置是能电自由地进行数据的抹除、写入,即使切断电源也能保存存储内容的非易失性半导体存储装置。例如,存储单元是电荷陷阱构造的存储单元。电荷累积膜115具有多个捕获电荷(电子)的陷阱,为例如氮化硅膜。栅极绝缘膜116为例如氧化硅膜,在从导电膜117对电荷累积膜115注入电荷时、或累积在电荷累积膜115的电荷向导电膜117扩散时,成为电位势垒。阻挡绝缘层114为例如氧化硅膜,防止累积在电荷累积膜115的电荷向导电层WL扩散。半导体装置例如可为NAND型闪存。
图3是表示控制电路101的P型MOSFET的构成例的概略剖视图。P型MOSFET(以下也简称为晶体管)具备半导体衬底10、漏极层20、源极层21、栅极绝缘膜30、栅极电极40、GC(Gate Conductor:栅极导体)42、外延层50、接触插塞70、保护膜80、层间绝缘膜90、及衬膜92。晶体管作为构成控制存储单元阵列MCA的控制电路的CMOS的一部分设置。此外,如图1所说明,在控制电路101内的晶体管的上方,设置着存储单元阵列MCA。
半导体衬底10例如为P型硅衬底,在它的表面区域,设置着P型阱或N型阱。P型MOSFET设置在N型阱,N型MOSFET设置在P型阱。在本实施方式中,因为晶体管为P型MOSFET,所以设置在半导体衬底10中的N型阱的表面区域。
漏极层20及源极层21设置在半导体衬底10的N型阱,为包含杂质的扩散层。杂质例如为硼(B)。晶体管为N型MOSFET的情况下,漏极层20及源极层21设置在半导体衬底10的P型阱,杂质例如为磷(P)或砷(As)。
栅极绝缘膜30设置在位于漏极层20与源极层21之间的半导体衬底10上。对于栅极绝缘膜30,例如使用氧化硅膜、或相对介电常数高于氧化硅膜的高介电材料。
栅极电极40设置在栅极绝缘膜30上。对于栅极电极40,例如使用掺杂多晶硅、金属等导电性材料。
GC42设置在栅极电极40上。对于栅极GC42,例如使用钨等导电性材料。
外延层50是设置在接触插塞70与源极层21或漏极层20之间,且掺杂了硼及碳(C)这两个作为杂质的掺杂外延硅层。例如,外延层50的硼浓度为1×1021cm-3以上,碳浓度为2×1020cm-3以上。此外,外延层50是导入硼及碳同时使它们外延生长的单晶硅层。通过包含碳,能抑制硼扩散,而将外延层50内的硼浓度维持得较高。由此,能将外延层50本身的电阻维持得较低,此外,能通过使硼扩散到沟道区域10c而抑制短沟道效应的产生。如果产生短沟道效应,那么晶体管特性会劣化。
接触插塞70设置在外延层50上。此外,接触插塞70以相对于源极层21或漏极层20突出到比半导体衬底10的表面F更下方的方式设置。另外,关于外延层50的形状及接触插塞70的形状的细节,参考图4在下文说明。
接触插塞70具备势垒金属层72、与插塞73。另外,接触插塞70还可以具备设置在势垒金属层72与外延层50之间的硅化物层。硅化物层由势垒金属层72的金属与外延层50的硅反应而形成。
势垒金属层72较薄地设置在外延层50上的接触孔CH的内壁。对于势垒金属层72,例如使用Ti或TiN。所述情况下,硅化物层成为TiSi(硅化钛)。如果硼及碳从外延层50扩散,那么硅化物层成为包含B、C的TiSi。
插塞73填充在接触孔CH内。对于插塞73,例如使用W(钨)。
保护膜80设置在GC42的上表面,保护GC42。对于保护膜80,例如使用氮化硅膜等绝缘性材料。
层间绝缘膜90设置在栅极电极40的侧面及保护膜80的上方。在层间绝缘膜90,可设置接触孔CH,在它的内部设置着接触插塞70。对于层间绝缘膜90,例如使用氧化硅膜等绝缘膜。
接触插塞70电连接到控制电路101的其它元件或存储单元阵列MCA。接触插塞70包含在衬底10与存储单元阵列MCA之间。
衬膜92以被覆半导体衬底10、栅极电极40及保护膜80的方式设置。晶体管为P型MOSFET的情况下,衬膜92能对沟道区域10c施加压缩应力,提高载流子迁移率(空穴的迁移率)。此外,晶体管为N型MOSFET的情况下,衬膜92能对沟道区域10c施加拉伸应力,提高载流子迁移率(电子的迁移率)。对于衬膜92,例如使用氧化硅膜等绝缘性材料。
另外,晶体管为P型MOSFET,但也可为N型MOSFET。其中,因为作为P型杂质的硼比作为N型杂质的磷或砷更容易扩散,所以由热负荷引起的短沟道效应及接触电阻上升等不良影响在P型MOSFET中相对较大。因此,在本实施方式中,将晶体管作为P型MOSFET进行说明。
图4是表示图3的外延层50及它的周边的一例的放大图。
如上所述,接触插塞70以突出到比半导体衬底10的表面F更下方的方式设置。因为接触插塞70为金属,所以电阻相对较低。因此,接触插塞70越长,越能抑制接触电阻。
此外,外延层50以覆盖突出到比半导体衬底10的表面(面F)更下方的接触插塞70的方式配置。因为外延层50包含高浓度的硼,所以电阻比源极层21或漏极层20更低。由此,能利用电阻相对较低的外延层50,使接触插塞70与源极层21或漏极层20电连接。此外,因为外延层50在比面F更下方的位置覆盖接触插塞70的底部,所以能提高与半导体衬底10的接触表面积。其结果,能抑制接触电阻。此外,在接触部分,也能容易使电流更均匀地流动。
此外,外延层50的宽度大于接触插塞70的宽度。宽度为垂直于接触插塞70的方向(图4的横向)的距离。也就是说,从半导体衬底10的上方观察的外延层50的外边缘位于比接触插塞70的外边缘更外侧。这是因为如之后说明,从接触孔CH的底部,在垂直于接触孔CH的方向(平行于面F的方向)蚀刻半导体衬底10(参考图12)。此外,因为上述形状,外延层50以从接触插塞70向沟道区域10c侧延伸的方式设置。因为外延层50的电阻相对较低,所以能抑制从接触插塞70到沟道区域10c的电流通路(电流路径)的寄生电阻。其结果,能进一步抑制接触电阻,同时能提高接通电流。
此处,在图3中,dCS表示接触插塞70的直径。dwidth表示作为接触层的外延层50的宽度。ddepth表示作为接触层的外延层50的深度。drecess表示从接触孔CH的底部向垂直于接触孔CH的方向延伸的外延层50的距离。dCS-GC表示从接触插塞70到GC42的距离。
如上所述,优选为外延层50的宽度大于接触插塞70的宽度。也就是说,优选为dCS<dwidth。此外,外延层50的宽度根据接触插塞70与栅极的位置关系而调整。包含相对较高浓度的硼的外延层50作为低电阻的电流通路发挥功能。但是,如果外延层50过于接近沟道区域10c,那么容易产生由外延层50内的硼扩散到沟道区域10c引起的短沟道效应。因此,优选drecess例如优选为满足dCS-GC/2>drecess
图5~图8是表示比较例的P型MOSFET的构成例的概略剖视图。在下文中,对图3所示的构造中的接触电阻、与图5~图8的构造中的接触电阻的比较进行说明。另外,接触电阻值本身根据接触的剖面积变化。因此,在本实施方式中,接触电阻值由标准的值表示。
图3所示的本实施方式的接触构造的情况下,从接触插塞70到源极层21或漏极层20的接触电阻为约232ohm。此外,接通电流为约115μA/μm。
图5所示的接触构造在源极层21或漏极层20与外延层50之间设置未掺杂外延层52。未掺杂外延层52为未掺杂外延硅层,为未导入杂质而外延生长的单晶硅层。因此,未掺杂外延层52与外延层50相比,杂质浓度较低,电阻较高。未掺杂外延层52是为了提高外延层50的晶体状态、及抑制硼扩散而设置。
未掺杂外延层52设置到比半导体衬底10的表面F高的位置。此外,在未掺杂外延层52上设置着外延层50,在外延层50上设置着接触插塞70。因此,图5所示的接触构造与图3所示的接触构造相比,接触插塞70底部的位置为高于面F的位置。此外,外延层50的宽度及未掺杂外延层52的宽度与接触插塞70的宽度大致相同。此外,因为未掺杂外延层52具有相对较高的电阻(寄生电阻),所以造成接触电阻增大。图5所示的接触构造的其它构成与图3的构成相同。图5所示的接触构造的情况下,从接触插塞70到漏极层20或源极层21的接触电阻为约880ohm。此外,接通电流为约95μA/μm。
图6所示的接触构造相对于图5的接触构造,未设置未掺杂外延层52。因为未设置电阻相对较高的未掺杂外延层52,所以与图5所示的构造相比,认为能提高接触电阻。图6所示的接触构造的其它构成与图5的构成相同。此外,在图6中,外延层50的宽度与接触插塞70的宽度大致相同。因此,图6所示的外延层50与图3所示的接触构造相比,接触表面积较小,接触电阻较大。图6所示的接触构造的情况下,从接触插塞70到漏极层20或源极层21的接触电阻为约706ohm。此外,接通电流为约90μA/μm。
图7所示的接触构造相对于图5的接触构造,以接触插塞70的底部位于更低位置的方式设置。因为电阻相对较低的接触插塞70及外延层50延伸,接近源极层21或漏极层20,所以与图5所示的构造相比,认为能抑制接触电阻。图7所示的接触构造的其它构成与图5的构成相同。此外,在图7中,外延层50的宽度与接触插塞70的宽度大致相同。因此,图7所示的外延层50与图3所示的接触构造相比,接触表面积较小,接触电阻较大。图7所示的接触构造的情况下,从接触插塞70到源极层21或漏极层20的接触电阻为约800ohm。
图8所示的接触构造相对于图5的接触构造,硼及碳的导入方法不同。在图8中,不利用外延生长进行外延层50的形成,而形成未掺杂外延层52。之后,利用离子注入法将硼及碳向未掺杂外延层52导入。因此,图8所示的硼及碳的分布54与图3及图5~图7不同。这是因为,在离子注入法中,与外延生长相比,更难在空间上控制杂质浓度。例如,如果在期望的位置高浓度地掺杂使用硼,那么也会掺杂到更深的位置,有可能产生泄漏或短沟道效应。此外,在离子注入法中,有可能使未掺杂外延层52的晶体状态恶化。此外,在离子注入法中,也难以进行如图3所示的在接触插塞70的侧面附近导入硼及碳。图8所示的接触构造的其它构成与图5的构成相同。图8所示的接触构造的情况下,从接触插塞70到源极层21或漏极层20的接触电阻为约800ohm。
如此,图3所示的本实施方式的接触构造以接触插塞70突出到比面F更下方的方式设置,以由外延层50覆盖接触插塞70的底部的方式设置。此外,外延层50以从接触插塞70向沟道区域10c延伸的方式设置。由此,图3的接触构造与图5~图8的接触构造相比,能将接触电阻抑制得较低。此外,图3的接触构造能提高接通电流,有助于提高晶体管的开关特性、及使控制电路100的动作高速化。
接下来,说明本实施方式的半导体装置的制造方法。
图9~图14是表示第1实施方式的半导体装置的制造方法的一例的剖视图。在图9~图14中,表示作为晶体管的P型MOSFET的制造方法。
首先,如图9所示,在半导体衬底10上,将硼等杂质导入到半导体衬底10的表面区域,将漏极层20及源极层21形成在半导体衬底10的表面区域。
接下来,如图10所示,在半导体衬底10上形成栅极绝缘膜30。栅极绝缘膜30可为利用热氧化法形成的氧化硅膜,也可为利用堆积法形成的高介电材料。接下来,在栅极绝缘膜30上堆积栅极电极40的材料。接下来,在栅极电极40上形成GC42及保护膜80。使用光刻及RIE(Reactive Ion Etching:反应性离子蚀刻)法等将堆积的多层积层膜进行形状加工,由此获得图10所示的构造。
接下来,在栅极电极40及半导体衬底10上堆积层间绝缘膜90及衬膜92。层间绝缘膜90例如可为使用TEOS(Tetraethoxysilane:四乙氧基硅烷)等的氧化硅膜。接下来,使用光刻技术及RIE法等,如图11所示,在层间绝缘膜90形成接触孔CH。接触孔CH以贯通层间绝缘膜90到达漏极层20及源极层21的方式形成。另外,也可在形成接触孔CH后进行湿法步骤,去除自然氧化膜。
接下来,如图12所示,在源极层21或漏极层20,形成从半导体衬底10的表面F到达低于半导体衬底10的表面F的特定位置P1的孔10h。也就是说,蚀刻半导体衬底10,形成孔10h。更详细来说,流动HCl气体来蚀刻半导体衬底10。由此,如图12所示,不仅在向下方向,在横向(平行于面F的方向)也能蚀刻半导体衬底10,能形成具有比接触孔CH的直径大的直径的孔10h。
图15是表示第1实施方式的接触孔CH及孔10h的形状的一例的示意图。
接触孔CH的形状为大致圆柱状。另一方面,孔10h的形状为大致四角锥状。这是因为,利用使用HCl气体的各向异性蚀刻,容易暴露硅的(111)面。因此,孔10h变为被(111)面覆盖的形状。覆盖孔10h的面为与(111)等效的面即可,以例如(-1-11)、(1-1-1)、(-11-1)、(111)这4个面形成大致四角锥。(111)面为从衬底表面(001)面倾斜53°的表面,但也有出于深度方向的蚀刻速度与横向的蚀刻速度的平衡而在45~60°之间变化的情况。接触孔CH也可为长方体状或狭缝状,根据接触孔CH的形状,覆盖孔10h的面的形状会发生变化。例如,如果接触孔CH为狭缝状,那么孔10h变为大致三角柱状。
接下来,如图13所示,使用外延生长法将外延层50形成在接触孔CH及孔10h内的源极层21或漏极层20的上方。外延层50是掺杂硼及碳这两者同时外延生长的掺杂硅晶体层。例如,硼浓度为1×1021cm-3以上,碳浓度为2×1020cm-3以上。由此,形成含有硼及碳的外延层50。此时,外延层50的上表面例如以具有(001)面的方式外延生长。此外,外延层50形成到作为半导体衬底10的表面的面F附近。另外,在形成接触插塞70时,有外延层50的上表面变低的情况,在图4所示的例中,外延层50的上表面凹陷成扇状。因此,在接触插塞70的底部位于低于面F的位置的范围内,外延层50可形成到略高于面F的位置。
另外,图12及图13的步骤连续执行。也就是说,在外延生长装置投入半导体衬底10后,利用半导体衬底10的HCl各向异性蚀刻形成具有(111)面的孔10h,并在原位(in-situ)成膜外延层50回填孔10h。通过连续执行具有(111)面的孔10h的形成与外延层50的回填,不会在孔10h的界面留下会引起电阻上升的杂质层或损伤层,能形成低电阻且接通电流较大的CMOS元件。通过使半导体装置1在半导体衬底10与外延层50的界面具有硅的(111)面,而获得低电阻且接通电流较大的CMOS元件。
此外,优选为外延层50通过掺杂杂质及碳这两者同时使半导体晶体外延生长而形成。由此,即使施加热负荷,也能高浓度地保持外延层50内的硼,能提高耐热性。
接下来,如图14所示,形成到达GC42的接触孔CHa。此外,通过在接触孔CH、CHa内形成金属材料,外延层50上的接触插塞70及GC42上的接触插塞70a并行形成。接触插塞70以从高于特定位置P1且低于半导体衬底10的表面F的特定位置P2向上方延伸的方式形成。例如,将势垒金属层72较薄地形成在接触孔CH内,进一步在接触孔CH内填充插塞73。对于势垒金属层72,例如使用Ti或TiN。对于插塞73,例如使用钨。由此,形成包含势垒金属层72及插塞73的接触插塞70。由此,获得图3所示的晶体管的构造。之后,也可在晶体管(栅极电极40)的上方,形成图1所示的存储单元阵列MCA。此时,也可利用存储单元阵列MCA的形成步骤中的热负荷,在势垒金属层72与外延层50之间,形成TiSi等硅化物层。
如以上所述,根据第1实施方式,接触插塞70以相对于源极层21或漏极层20突出到比上述衬底的表面更下方的方式设置。此外,外延层50设置在接触插塞70与源极层21或漏极层20之间。由此,能抑制接触电阻。
此外,在晶体管的上方,设置着存储单元阵列MCA。这是因为,与将存储单元阵列MCA设置在晶体管附近的情形相比,能抑制芯片面积,此外,能提高每芯片面积的存储单元阵列MCA的数量(单元密度)。但是,所述情况下,有必要在形成接触插塞70后,形成存储单元阵列MCA。因此,在形成存储单元阵列MCA时的热处理步骤中,对控制电路101及接触插塞70施加热负荷。因所述热负荷,外延层50及扩散层等所包含的杂质硼容易扩散。硼的扩散造成与接触插塞70电连接的外延层50中的硼浓度减少,从而引起接触电阻上升。
通常,作为抑制接触电阻的方法,已知有大量注入硼来提高硼浓度。但是,如果大量注入硼,那么容易产生因硼扩散到沟道区域10c引起的短沟道效应。
与此相对,在第1实施方式中,可不增加硼的注入量,而抑制接触电阻。此外,通过外延层50所包含的碳,能抑制硼从包含相对高浓度的硼的外延层50内扩散。因此,能抑制因热负荷引起的短沟道效应及接触电阻上升。由此,能减少接触电阻同时提高对于硼扩散的耐热性。其结果,能提高控制电路101的特性,此外,能形成更高容量的存储装置。
另外,晶体管未必设置在存储单元阵列MCA的下方。
(第2实施方式)
图16是表示第2实施方式的P型MOSFET的构成例的剖视图。第2实施方式在设置外延层60这点上与第1实施方式不同。
晶体管还具有外延层60。
外延层60设置在源极层21或漏极层20与外延层50之间,使用与外延层50的第1材料不同的第2材料。也就是说,在外延层50的外周设置着外延层60。第1材料例如为Si。第2材料例如为SiGe。SiGe的Ge浓度例如为约1%~约10%。此外,外延层60还包含杂质。杂质例如为硼。
此外,外延层60以由源极层21侧的外延层60及漏极层20侧的外延层60夹着栅极电极40下方的沟道区域10c的方式配置。外延层60的SiGe的晶格常数大于Si。由此,能对沟道区域10c施加压缩应力。其结果,能提高沟道区域10c中的载流子迁移率(空穴的迁移率)。此外,第2材料(SiGe)以对沟道区域10c给予应变的方式选择即可。
此处,dSiGe表示外延层60的膜厚。也就是说,dSiGe也可为从外延层50的底部到外延层60的底部的距离。
外延层60的膜厚例如优选为总膜厚的一半以下。也就是说,优选为ddepth/2>dSiGe
另外,晶体管为N型MOSFET的情况下,例如对于外延层60的材料,也可使用SiC或SiN替代SiGe。SiC及SiN的晶格常数小于Si。由此,能对N型MOSFET的沟道区域10c施加拉伸应力,能提高载流子迁移率(电子的迁移率)。此外,外延层60内的杂质例如为磷或砷。
外延层60在图12所示的步骤后形成。也就是说,在形成外延层50之前,使半导体晶体在孔10h内的源极层21或漏极层20的上方外延生长,形成与外延层50的第1材料不同的第2材料的外延层60即可。
因为第2实施方式的半导体装置1的其它构成与第1实施方式的半导体装置1中对应的构成相同,所以省略其详细说明。第2实施方式的半导体装置1能获得与第1实施方式相同的效果。
(第3实施方式)
图17是表示控制电路101的N型MOSFET及P型MOSFET的构成例的剖视图。第3实施方式在设置具有外延层50的N型MOSFET这点上与第1实施方式不同。
在图17所示的例中,在CMOS电路所包含的N型MOSFET及P型MOSFET这两者中,如第1实施方式所说明,设置着接触插塞70及外延层50。此外,在N型MOSFET与P型MOSFET之间,例如设置着绝缘层94。绝缘层94例如为STI(Shallow Trench Isolation:浅沟槽隔离),将N型MOSFET的P型阱与P型MOSFET的N型阱隔离。
如第1实施方式所说明,在N型MOSFET中,外延层50的杂质例如为磷或砷。此外,在外延层50,与P型MOSFET相同,优选为包含高浓度的杂质,此外,更优选为包含碳,因为它能抑制杂质扩散。
如此,在第3实施方式中,在N型MOSFET及P型MOSFET这两者中,能抑制接触电阻。
因为第3实施方式的半导体装置1的其它构成与第1实施方式的半导体装置1中对应的构成相同,所以省略其详细说明。第3实施方式的半导体装置1能获得与第1实施方式相同的效果。此外,也可将第2实施方式组合到第3实施方式的半导体装置1。也就是说,也可将外延层60设置在N型MOSFET及P型MOSFET这两者。
虽已对本发明的若干个实施方式进行了说明,但所述实施方式是作为例子提示的,并未意图限定发明的范围。所述实施方式可由其它各种方式实施,在不脱离发明主旨的范围内,可进行各种省略、替换、变更。所述实施方式或其变化包含在发明的范围或主旨中,同样地,包含在权利要求书所记载的发明及其均等范围内。
