Technical field
The present invention relates to the used transistor gate of semiconductor device, especially relate to gate electrode in the folded tungsten silicide structure of upper amorphous silicon layer.
Background technology
Usually, the gate electrode of MOS transistor is prior to source electrode and drain electrode, at first forms to form on the Semiconductor substrate of gate insulating film.Described gate electrode is formed by polysilicon, for improving its performance, perhaps replaces with amorphous polysilicon, perhaps stacked tungsten silicide layer on polysilicon.
Fig. 2 is existing embodiment, is the partial sectional view with semiconductor element of the structure of stacked tungsten silicide on polysilicon layer.
Referring to Fig. 2, existing grid structure is to form gate oxidation films (SiO on the surface of Semiconductor substrate 10 2) 12, stack gradually polysilicon layer 14 and tungsten silicide layer 16 on gate oxidation films top.
Polysilicon is to have a crystalline material, by the little crystal region formations of being separated by crystal boundary etc. such as (granularities).During deposit, can obtain to have amorphism and crystalline polysilicon film etc.; After the deposit,, represent crystal structure by high-temperature process.
Mainly be to form polysilicon layer 14 by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method.At this moment, for polysilicon, adopt silane (SiH 4) gas is as source gas.As the application result of chemical vapor deposition method, the granularity of the polysilicon of formation is 0.2~0.3 μ m size.
Tungsten silicide layer 16 can form selectively by chemical vapor deposition method or physical deposition method.When adopting chemical vapor deposition method, have the object layer of the polysilicon layer 14 that is used to form tungsten silicide on the Semiconductor substrate 10, and containing WF 6In the atmosphere of gas.At this moment, described WF 6The contained small amount of fluorine atom of gas infiltrates the superficial layer of described polysilicon layer 14.As a result, in silicon tungsten layer 16, there is a spot of fluorine atom.
Contained described fluorine atom in the described tungsten silicide layer 16, most of via described polysilicon layer 14 in the subsequent heat treatment operation, infiltrate described gate oxidation films 12.This is because the size of the structure granularity of the described polysilicon layer 14 of formation is very little, has the permeation pathway of a lot of described fluorine atoms.Its result, the thickness of described gate oxidation films 12 increases, and the electrical characteristics of described gate oxidation films 12 significantly become bad.
On the other hand, when on amorphous silicon, forming tungsten silicide, want big during the amorphous silicon fineness ratio polysilicon of formation, but because the little degree of size of these granularities, so the problem of fluorine atom infiltration still takes place when forming tungsten silicide to 0.5 μ m.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of gate electrode that forms by the stromatolithic structure of polysilicon and tungsten silicide, can prevent to cause gate electrode that the electrical characteristics of gate oxidation films become bad and thickness increases and forming method thereof because of the infiltration of fluorine atom.
For achieving the above object, the invention provides a kind of gate electrode, has the gate insulating film that forms on Semiconductor substrate top, the amorphous silicon layer that is formed by b silane gas on described gate insulating film top and at described amorphous silicon layer top tungsten silicide layer that form, that contain trace impurity, its feature are that described amorphous silicon layer has and can prevent the size of described impurity to the infiltration of gate insulating film side.
According to the present invention, gate electrode has amorphous polysilicon layer that form, that contain very big structure particles on gate oxidation films top.The described amorphous polysilicon layer that contains the macrostructure particle can make impurity diminish to the path of described gate oxidation films side infiltration.
Specifically, one aspect of the present invention provides a kind of gate electrode to comprise: the gate oxidation films that forms on Semiconductor substrate; The amorphous silicon layer that on described gate oxidation films, forms by chemical vapour deposition (CVD) by b silane gas; Tungsten silicide layer that form, that contain trace impurity on described amorphous silicon layer, wherein said amorphous silicon layer has the size of 2~3 μ m, thereby, in follow-up Technology for Heating Processing, reduce of the infiltration of described impurity to gate oxidation films.
Preferably, described impurity is fluorine element.

Fig. 2 is existing embodiment, is the gate electrode cutaway view with stacked tungsten silicide structure on polysilicon layer.
Embodiment
Below, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
With reference to Fig. 1, form gate insulating film 22 on the top of Semiconductor substrate 20, on the top of described gate insulating film 22, the stacked tungsten silicide layer 26 that contains the amorphous silicon layer 24 of big structure particles and contain the fluorine atom of trace.
With disilane (Si 2H 6) be source gas, by chemical vapor deposition method, form described amorphous silicon layer 24, its structure granularity size is about 2~3 μ m, compares with the existing structure that silicon metal is stacked, and its granularity is greatly to 10 times degree.Therefore, described amorphous silicon layer 24 is compared with the employed polysilicon layer of existing gate electrode, and impurity can reduce to 1/10 degree at least to the infiltration path of described gate insulating film 22 sides.As a result, the thickness of described gate insulating film 22 need not to increase, and the electrical characteristics of described gate insulating film 22 can not take place to descend significantly yet.The tungsten silicide that the present invention is suitable for is with WSi 2For good.
Below, the forming process of the gate electrode of described structure is described.
At O 2Expose described Semiconductor substrate 20 in the gas, at described Semiconductor substrate 20 superficial growth oxide (SiO 2), form described gate insulating film 24 thus.
Thus, with 450~580 ℃ temperature, make the described Semiconductor substrate 20 that is formed with described gate insulating film 22 be exposed to the disilane (Si of predetermined pressure 2H 6) gas, formation contains the described amorphous silicon layer 24 of the structure particles of 2~3 μ m sizes thus.Pressure when described b silane gas reacts generally is set at the degree of 0.1~dozens of Torr.
