Description

Mesa structure PNP type Schottky collecting region SOI SiGe HBT structure
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the field of semiconductor technology, concretely relates to mesa structure PNP type schottky collecting area SOISiGe HBT structure.
Background
The market at present has increasingly strong demands for high-performance devices such as high-speed devices, high-frequency devices, low-cost devices and the like. But because of the limitation of the physical properties of the Si material, the performances of high speed, high frequency and the like of the conventional Si device are difficult to improve; although III-V compound semiconductor devices (e.g., GaAs, InP, etc.) are much better than Si devices in high-speed high-frequency performance, they have disadvantages of incompatibility with Si device processes, high cost, etc. A silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (SiGe HBT) is a silicon-based bipolar junction transistor (SiBJT) with a small amount of Ge added to the base region. The base region is made of SiGe material, so that the device performance is remarkably improved, and the SiGe HBT becomes a standard bipolar transistor in high-speed application. The key indicator of UHF semiconductor devices is the cut-off frequency (f)T) The SiGe HBT developed on the basis of a mature silicon process utilizes the advantages of 'energy band engineering', and fundamentally solves the contradiction between the improvement of the amplification factor and the improvement of the frequency characteristic. Due to the complete compatibility with the mature silicon process and the development and maturation of the process technologies such as Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), the SiGe HBT has its unique advantages and is widely used in high-performance microwave rf devices and circuits.
The SOI (Silicon On Insulator) technology is an ideal platform for developing novel devices and integrated circuits with low power consumption, radiation resistance, high temperature resistance and the like, and simultaneously, the application prospect of the CMOS process is expanded. In the SOI substrate technology, the SiGe HBT device can play roles of reducing the parasitic capacitance effect, reducing the power consumption of the device, avoiding the latch-up effect, and the like by using the insulator substrate in the SOI substrate. In recent years, SiGe HBTs based on SOI substrate technology are becoming one of the hot spots for research in the microelectronics field.
In addition, it is noted that under the same doping condition, since minority carrier (hole) mobility of the PNP base region is lower than that of the NPN-type SiGe HBT, gain of the PNP-type device is smaller, and base transit time is longer, so the NPN-type is mostly used for the current SiGe HBT. On the other hand, under the condition of the same base material, the mobility of a base multi-electron (electron) of the PNP type transistor is higher, so that the square resistance of the PNP type intrinsic base is far smaller than that of the NPN type intrinsic base, the charge-discharge time of the emitter junction capacitor can be shortened, and the switching conversion speed of the device can be improved. Therefore, the PNP SiGe HBT has obvious advantages and application potential in a switching circuit as long as the base transit time is further reduced and the current gain of the device is improved. Furthermore, if the collector junction of a conventional SiGe HBT is replaced by a schottky junction, the operating speed of the device can be further improved, since the schottky contact has two significant main advantages: (1) the collector resistance is 0; (2) because there is no collector junction space charge region, the collector junction transit time can be 0, as can the charge storage time, which can further increase the cutoff frequency.
The inventor of the present invention has found through research that, compared with the above two advantages (1) and (2), more importantly, for the carrier transported at the collector junction, the use of the schottky collector junction can effectively avoid the conversion process of the carrier from the base region of the narrow bandgap to the collector region of the wide bandgap, because the discontinuity Δ E of the collector junction valence band of the conventional PNP type Si/SiGe/Si HBT structureVGreatly, it is not favorable for further improvement of device performance due to the combined action of the speed overshoot effect of the carrier, and the hole concentration accumulated at the collector junction is increased by exp (q Δ E)Vand/kT) (q is the electron electric quantity, k is the boltzmann constant, and T is the temperature), the collector current is reduced, the collector junction transit time is increased, and the above adverse factors can be effectively avoided if a schottky barrier is used.
The inventor of the utility model further discovers through research that in order to realize reducing the purpose of PNP type SiGeHBT base region transit time, except reducing this conventional means of SiGe base region thickness, can also combine the advantage of "strain engineering". At present, "strain engineering" is mainly applied in the process of high-speed MOSFET, especially in the strain process under 90 nm, uniaxial strain is a commonly used technique. Therefore, if the uniaxial strain technology can be introduced into the PNP type SiGe HBT, stress is applied to the base region of the PNP type SiGe HBT through simple process steps, the longitudinal mobility of base region minority carriers (holes) is reduced, the base region transit time is reduced, and the cut-off frequency of the device is improved; meanwhile, the compatibility with the conventional silicon-based CMOS process is also considered, and the method is convenient for large-scale commercial manufacturing.
