Referring to fig. 1, in an embodiment of the present invention, a patterned device is illustrated, and isolation between adjacent patterned devices or between a patterned device and other semiconductor devices is performed on the same substrate, for example, by a shallow trench isolation structure. The substrate 10 is provided first, and the substrate 10 may be any material suitable for forming, for example, a semiconductor material formed of silicon carbide (SiC), gallium nitride (GaN), aluminum nitride (AlN), indium nitride (InN), indium phosphide (InP), gallium arsenide (GaAs), silicon germanium (GeSi), sapphire, silicon wafer, or other III/V compound, etc., and a stacked structure formed of these semiconductor materials, or a silicon on insulator, a stacked silicon on insulator, a silicon germanium on insulator, a germanium on insulator, etc. The material of the substrate 10 is not limited in the present invention, and the substrate 10 may be a P-doped semiconductor substrate or an N-doped semiconductor substrate, and in this embodiment, the substrate 10 is, for example, a P-doped silicon substrate.
Referring to fig. 1 to 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in A-A direction, and fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in B-B direction. The pad oxide layer 11 is formed on the substrate 10, the pad oxide layer 11 being, for example, a material such as dense silicon oxide, and the pad oxide layer 11 may be formed on the substrate 10 by, for example, a dry oxygen oxidation method, a wet oxygen oxidation method, an In-situ vapor growth method (In-Situ Steam Generation, ISSG), or a chemical vapor deposition (Chemical Vapor Deposition, CVD) method. In this embodiment, the pad oxide layer 11 is, for example, a silicon oxide layer, and the substrate 10 is placed in a furnace tube at a temperature of, for example, 950 ℃ to 1150 ℃ and oxygen mixed with a small amount of hydrogen is introduced, so that the substrate 10 reacts with the oxygen at a high temperature to generate a dense pad oxide layer 11. The thickness of the pad oxide layer 11 is, for example, 70nm to 100nm, specifically 70nm, 80nm, 90nm, 100nm, or the like.
Referring to fig. 2 to 3, in an embodiment of the present invention, after forming the pad oxide layer 11, a pad nitride layer 12 is formed on the pad oxide layer 11, and the pad nitride layer 12 is, for example, silicon nitride or a stack of silicon nitride and silicon oxide. Wherein the pad oxide layer 11 serves as a buffer layer to improve the stress between the substrate 10 and the pad nitride layer 12. In the present invention, the pad nitride layer 12 may be formed on the pad oxide layer 11 by, for example, low pressure chemical vapor deposition (Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition, LPCVD) or the like. Specifically, for example, the substrate 10 with the pad oxide layer 11 is placed in a furnace filled with dichlorosilane and ammonia gas, and the pad nitride layer 12 is deposited by reacting at a pressure of, for example, 2t to 10t and a temperature of, for example, 700 ℃ to 800 ℃. Wherein the pad nitride layer 12 and the pad oxide layer 11 are formed, for example, in the same device, i.e., after the formation of the pad oxide layer 11, the device parameters are controlled to form the pad nitride layer 12, so as to simplify the manufacturing process. The thickness of the pad nitride layer 12 is 70nm to 90nm, specifically 70nm, 80nm, 900nm, or the like, for example. The pad nitride layer 12 protects the substrate 10 and the pad oxide layer 11 from processes such as chemical mechanical polishing planarization (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) involved in the fabrication of shallow trench isolation structures. And the pad nitride layer 12 can be used as a mask in the shallow trench formation process, and protects the substrate 10 and the pad oxide layer 11 at other positions from being damaged when the substrate 10 is etched.

The first photoresist layer 13 is exposed and developed, and a first opening 131 is formed on the first photoresist layer 13 to locate the shallow trench isolation structure. In this embodiment, the first opening 131 is disposed, for example, in a "U" shape or a "concave" shape, and the substrate in the "U" shape or the "concave" shape opening is used to dispose the gate structure and the doped region.
Please refer to fig. 4-5, in the followingIn an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 4 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in A-A direction, and fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in B-B direction. Etching is performed in the direction of the substrate 10 by using the first photoresist layer 13 with the first opening 131 as a mask, and the pad nitride layer 12, the pad oxide layer 11 and a part of the substrate 10 exposed by the first opening 131 are removed to form a shallow trench 141. In the present embodiment, for example, the shallow trench 141 is selectively formed by dry etching, and the etching gas includes, for example, chlorine (Cl) 2 ) Trifluoromethane (CHF) 3 ) Difluoromethane (CH) 2 F 2 ) Nitrogen trifluoride (NF) 3 ) Sulfur hexafluoride (SF) 6 ) And hydrogen bromide (HBr) or the like, or a mixture thereof with oxygen (O 2 ) Is a combination of (a) and (b).
Referring to fig. 6 to 7, in an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in A-A direction, and fig. 7 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in B-B direction. An insulating medium is deposited within shallow trench 141 to form shallow trench isolation structure 14. Specifically, an insulating medium is deposited within shallow trench 141 until the surface of pad nitride layer 12 is covered. Optionally, the substrate 10 may be annealed in an oxygen atmosphere prior to depositing the insulating medium to form an inner liner oxide layer (not shown) in the shallow trench 141 to reduce leakage. The invention is not limited to the deposition of the insulating medium, and the corresponding insulating medium can be formed by, for example, high density plasma chemical vapor deposition (High Density Plasma CVD, HDP-CVD) or high aspect ratio chemical vapor deposition (High Aspect Ratio Process CVD, HARP-CVD). After the insulating medium is deposited, a high temperature (e.g., 800-1200 ℃) tempering process may be performed to increase the density and stress of the insulating medium. The insulating medium is, for example, silicon oxide with high adaptability to the grinding tool, and in other embodiments, the insulating medium may be an insulating material such as fluorosilicone glass.
Referring to fig. 6 to 8, fig. 8 is a top view of a shallow trench isolation structure and a substrate in an embodiment of the invention. After forming the insulating medium, the insulating medium is subjected to a planarization process, for example, a chemical mechanical polishing (Chemical Mechanical Polishing, CMP) process is used to planarize the insulating medium and a portion of the pad nitride layer 12 so that the heights of the insulating medium and the pad nitride layer 12 are uniform. The pad nitride layer 12 after polishing is then etched and removed, and the invention is not limited to the method of removing the pad nitride layer 12, for example, dry etching, wet etching, or the like. In this embodiment, for example, wet etching is performed using an acid solution, specifically phosphoric acid with a volume fraction of, for example, 85% -88%, and the pad nitride layer 12 is etched at, for example, 150 ℃ -165 ℃. After removing the pad nitride layer 12, the pad oxide layer 11 is removed by replacing the etching solution, for example, by replacing it with hydrofluoric acid or buffered oxide etching solution (Buffered Oxide Etch, BOE), so that a step is formed between the substrate 10 and the shallow trench isolation structure 14, and the step height is 10nm to 20nm, for example. After the shallow trench isolation structure 14 is formed, the region of the substrate 10 where the shallow trench isolation structure 14 is located is defined as an isolation region, and the remaining region is defined as an active region, i.e., the isolation region is configured, for example, in a "U" shape or a "concave" shape.

In this embodiment, the gate oxide layer 15 is formed, for example, by an in-situ vapor growth method, and the thickness of the formed gate oxide layer 15 is, for example, 8nm to 15nm. In the process of forming the gate oxide layer 15, the shallow trench isolation structure 14 area is not affected, the original thickness is maintained, and the thickness of the gate oxide layer 15 is smaller than the step height between the shallow trench isolation structure 14 and the substrate 10. By reforming the gate oxide layer 15, the effect of front-end process fluctuations on the device is repaired and prevented.
Referring to FIG. 11, in an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1 in the direction A-A. After the gate oxide layer 15 is formed, a gate material layer (not shown) is formed on the gate oxide layer 15. The gate material layer is, for example, a polysilicon layer, and the polysilicon layer may be P-type doped or N-type doped, and the doping type of the gate material layer is different from the doping type of the substrate 10.

A patterned photoresist layer (not shown) is formed on the gate material layer, and the gate material layer is etched, for example, by a dry etching process, a wet etching process, or a combination of a dry etching process and a wet etching process, with the patterned photoresist layer as a mask, and in this embodiment, the gate material layer is sequentially anisotropically etched, for example, by a dry etching process, to form the gate structure 16. In which, in the A-A direction of fig. 1, the dimension of the gate structure 16 on the active region is defined as a channel length (channel length), in the B-B direction of fig. 1, the dimension of the gate structure 16 on the active region is defined as a channel width (channel width), the gate structure 16 extends to both sides of the isolation region in the channel width direction, and both ends of the gate structure 16 cover part of the isolation region.

After forming the gate structure 16, doped regions are formed in the substrate 10 on either side of the gate structure 16 to serve as source and drain doped regions for the semiconductor device. The doped region includes a first doped region 171 and a second doped region 172, and the doping types of the first doped region 171 and the second doped region 172 are the same and opposite to the doping type of the substrate 10. In this embodiment, the doping ions of the first doping region 171 and the second doping region 172 are, for example, N-type ions such As phosphorus (P) or arsenic (As), where the first doping region 171 serves As a source doping region of the semiconductor device and the second doping region 172 serves As a drain doping region of the semiconductor device.

Specifically, a second photoresist layer 151 is formed on the substrate 10, where the second photoresist layer 151 locates the remaining gate oxide layer 15 and the shallow trench isolation structure 14, and the second photoresist layer 151 also exposes the gate oxide layer 15 at a later formation drain position. The second photoresist layer 151 is used as a mask, and the gate oxide layer 15 and part of the shallow trench isolation structure 14 in the region outside the second photoresist layer 151 are removed by dry etching or wet etching. In this embodiment, the gate oxide layer 15 and a portion of the shallow trench isolation structure 14 are removed, for example, by wet etching, and the gate oxide layer 15 and a portion of the shallow trench isolation structure 14 remaining on the substrate 10 are defined as an oxide layer region 152, and the oxide layer region 152 wraps around the gate structure 16, and a region between the gate structure 16 and the isolation region. The oxide region 152 forms a second opening 181 on the second doped region 172 to locate the drain.
Referring to fig. 1, 14-16, after the etching of the gate oxide layer 15 is completed, a remaining oxide layer region 152 spans over the shallow trench isolation structure 14 and the active region and covers a portion of the active region in the channel width direction of the gate structure 16, and a first preset distance d1 is provided between the gate oxide layer 15 and the gate structure 16 at the interface between the active region and the shallow trench isolation structure 14, where the first preset distance d1 is, for example, 0.8 μm to 1.1 μm. The remaining oxide layer region 152 covers a portion of the shallow trench isolation structure 14 in the direction of the channel length of the gate structure 16 and extends in the direction of the gate structure 16 until a portion of the substrate 10 on a side of the gate structure 16 remote from the shallow trench isolation structure 14. The gate oxide layer 15 and the gate structure 16 have a second predetermined distance d2 therebetween, and the second predetermined distance d2 is, for example, 0.1 μm to 0.3 μm. I.e., the gate structure 16 is on the active region on the side remote from the shallow trench isolation structure 14, the gate oxide 15 on the active region is at a different distance from the gate structure 16. By increasing the distance from the gate oxide layer 15 at the interface of the shallow trench isolation structure 14 and the active region to the gate structure 16, the gate oxide layer under the gate structure 16 can be prevented from being drilled and etched in the direction of the channel width of the gate structure 16, the semiconductor leakage phenomenon is reduced, and the yield of the semiconductor device is improved. Meanwhile, in the manufacturing process, only the exposure range of the second photoresist layer is required to be modified, no additional process steps are required to be added, the size of the semiconductor device is not changed, the manufacturing cost is not increased, and meanwhile, the performance of the semiconductor device is improved.
Referring to fig. 17, in an embodiment of the present invention, after removing a portion of the gate oxide layer, a sidewall dielectric layer (not shown) is formed on the substrate 10 and the gate structure 16, and the material of the sidewall dielectric layer is, for example, silicon oxide, silicon nitride or a stack of silicon oxide and silicon nitride. After forming the sidewall dielectric layer, for example, the gate structure 16, the shallow trench isolation structure 14 and a portion of the sidewall dielectric layer on the gate oxide layer 15 may be removed by using an etching process such as dry etching or wet etching, so as to retain the sidewall dielectric layers on both sides of the gate structure 16. The remained side wall dielectric layer is defined as a side wall structure 18, the height of the side wall structure 18 is consistent with that of the grid electrode structure 16, the width of the side wall structure 18 is gradually increased from the top to the bottom of the grid electrode structure 16, and the insulating side wall structure 18 is arranged to prevent the prepared semiconductor device from generating electric leakage. In this embodiment, the shape of the sidewall structure 18 is, for example, arc, and in other embodiments, the shape of the sidewall structure 18 may be triangular or L-shaped.
Referring to fig. 18 to 19, in an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 18 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in A-A direction, and fig. 19 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in B-B direction. After forming the sidewall structures 18, a Self-Aligned Block (SAB) 19 is formed on the first doped region 171, the second doped region 172 and the gate structure 16, i.e., the Self-Aligned Block 19 covers the first doped region 171, a portion of the second doped region 172 and the top of the gate structure 16. The salicide block layer 19 is, for example, a metal silicide such as nickel silicide (NiSi) or cobalt silicide (CoSi) to reduce the contact resistance between the subsequent metal lines and the semiconductor device. Specifically, a metal material, such as titanium, cobalt, or nickel, is deposited on the substrate 10 and the gate structure 16, and the metal material reacts with silicon in the substrate 10 and the gate structure 16 by a rapid annealing process to form a metal silicide, and finally, unreacted metal material is removed.
Referring to fig. 1, 20 to 21, in an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 20 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in A-A direction, and fig. 21 is a cross-sectional view of fig. 1 in B-B direction. After the salicide block layer 19 is formed, an interlayer dielectric layer 20 is formed on the salicide block layer 19, the interlayer dielectric layer 20 covering the surface of the substrate 10. In this embodiment, the interlayer dielectric layer 20 may be formed on the substrate 10 by, for example, high-density plasma chemical vapor deposition, the thickness of the interlayer dielectric layer 20 may be 500nm to 800nm, and the material of the interlayer dielectric layer 20 may be, for example, an insulating material such as silicon dioxide. A plurality of openings are formed in the interlayer dielectric layer 20 in communication with the salicide block layer 19 and a conductive material is deposited in the openings, such as by a deposition process, for example, a metal material, such as a titanium/titanium nitride barrier layer and tungsten metal, is deposited in the openings to form the electrode. Wherein the conductive plug connected to the first doped region 171 is defined as the source 21 of the semiconductor device, the conductive plug connected to the gate structure is defined as the gate 22 of the semiconductor device, and the conductive plug connected to the second doped region 172 is defined as the drain 23 of the semiconductor device.
