Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for producing a transistor structure consisting of at least a first and a second bipolar transistor with different collector widths. Such a method is known for example from DE 100 44 838 C2.
- the collector is usually terminated by a highly doped buried layer.
- the buried layer is produced in that the substrate undergoes an ion implantation at the desired location.
- a low-doped epitaxy layer is then applied and the trays for the base, emitter and collector are created.
- HV transistors high-voltage transistors
- HF transistors high-frequency transistors
- the dimensioning of the collector width also determines the properties of a bipolar transistor.
- the area of the epitaxial layer that is located between the trough of the base located in the epitaxial layer and the buried layer is referred to as the collector width.
- RF transistors that are to be optimized for high frequencies must have a small collector width
- HV transistors that are optimized for high breakdown voltages must have a large collector width.
- DE 100 44 838 C2 describes a semiconductor component and a method for its production, in which bipolar components are realized with different collector widths.
- an additional substance is introduced into a buried layer of a bipolar component which influences the diffusion of a dopant of the buried layer and thus the collector width of this bipolar component.
- this method does not result in a sharp transition between the differently doped buried layers and collectors.
- the collector width can therefore not be set exactly and with a sharp profile, but shows a "smeared" profile with a flat gradient.
- the object of the present invention is accordingly to provide an optimized method for producing a transistor structure, in which the formation of collector regions with different collector widths is made possible, the collector regions having a sharp boundary to the buried layers.
- the object is achieved by a method of the type mentioned at the outset, in which at least one first
- Collector area with a first collector width Cl on a first buried layer and a second collector area with a second collector width C2 are generated on a second buried layer, wherein for the generation of the second collector width C2 a first collector zone with a first thickness C3 on the second buried layer and a second collector zone with a second thickness C4 is generated on the first collector zone and at least one insulation region is generated which separates at least the collector regions from one another.
- the collector width of the two bipolar transistors of the transistor structure is different and the collector regions have a sharp or abrupt transition with a steep gradient to the neighboring regions, such as the buried layers.
- the collector width C1 of the first bipolar transistor preferably corresponds to the first thickness C3 of the second collector region.
- the collector width C2 of the second bipolar transistor is made up of the thicknesses C3 and C4 of the collector zones of the second
- the invention is based on the knowledge that a sharp boundary or an abrupt transition from the lightly doped collector to the heavily doped buried layer prevents holding a transistor significantly improved, since an abrupt profile with a steep gradient with a constant sheet resistance has smaller marginal capacitances than a profile with a flat gradient.
- the method according to the invention also improves the high-current behavior of the transistor, since there is no unnecessary dopant in the part of the collector flooded with charge carriers, and instead the passage of the buried layer is reduced.
- the method of the type mentioned at the outset is further developed in such a way that at least a first zone of a first buried layer of a first conductivity type of the first bipolar transistor and a first zone of a second buried layer of a first or a second conductivity type of the second bipolar transistor are introduced into the semiconductor substrate , a first epitaxial layer is generated, which covers the entire area at least the first zone of the buried layers, at least a second zone of the first conductivity type is generated within the first epitaxial layer, the second zone adjoining the first zone of the first buried layer, one second epitaxial layer is generated, which covers at least the entire surface at least the first epitaxial layer and the second zone of the first buried layer, at least one insulation region is generated which separates at least the collector regions from one another t, wherein the second zone of the first buried layer adjoins the first collector region and the first zone of the second buried layer adjoins the second collector region.
- the thickness of the first buried layer being composed of a first zone which is introduced into the semiconductor substrate and a second zone which is introduced into the first epitaxial layer.
- the second buried layer and the first zone of the first buried layer are preferably of the same thickness.
- the thicknesses of the first and two The buried layers therefore differ by the thickness of the second zone of the second buried layer. Since the collector width, as mentioned at the beginning, depends on the thickness of the epitaxial layer, minus the buried layer extending into the epitaxial layer, the collector widths Cl and C2 can be varied in a simple manner and yet, unlike in the designs known to date, there is a sharp transition between the highly doped buried layers and the low doped collector regions.
- the inventors propose to further develop the method of the type mentioned at the outset in such a way that at least a first zone of a first buried layer of a first conductivity type of the first bipolar transistor and a second buried layer of a first or a second conductivity type of the second bipolar transistor into the semiconductor substrate are introduced, at least a first collector zone of the first bipolar transistor and a first collector zone of the second bipolar transistor are generated, the first collector zone of the first bipolar transistor adjoining the first zone and the first collector zone of the second bipolar transistor adjoining the second buried layer, the first collector zone being the first Conductivity type is formed, a second collector zone on the first collector zone of the second bipolar transistor and a second collector zone on the first collector zone of the first bipolar transistor are generated and m at least one insulation area is generated which at least separates the collector zones from one another.
- the third collector zone is deposited epitaxially.
- the collector zone is grown with as few crystal defects as possible, which is very important for the functional properties of a bipolar transistor.
- the isolation area which at least separates the collector areas from one another, is separated from one another using shallow trench isolation technology (STI technology).
- STI technology shallow trench isolation technology
- CVD Chemical Vapor Deposition
- the two laterally adjacent, highly doped buried layers of two bipolar transistors are preferably electrically isolated from one another.
- This isolation area can be designed, for example, as a filling trench (complete trench) or as a deep trench (deep trench).
- a filling trench is a trench, for example between components of a chip, in which the silicon is etched or interrupted up to the buried layers, so that current paths between the components are completely interrupted.
- a filling trench can separate larger transistor areas from one another, as also described in an article by S. Maeda, "Impact of 0.18 ⁇ m SOI CMOS Technology using Hybrid Trench Isolation with High Resistivity Substrate on Embedded RF / Analog Applications ", 2000 Symp. On VLSI Technology - Digest of Technical Papers (CAT.No. 00CH37104), pages 154 to 155.
- a deep trench is described, for example, in the article "An SOI-Based High Performance Self-Aligned Bipolar Technology Featuring 20 ps Gate Delay and a 8.6 fJ Power Delay Product" by E. Bertagnolli et al. , 1993, Symp. On VLSI-Technologie, Digest of Technical Papers (CAT.No. 93CH3303-5), pages 63 to 64.
- the deep trench In contrast to the filling trench is the deep
- the deep trench is used for dielectric component isolation.
- FIGS. 1 a to 1d show a schematic cross-sectional view of a first method according to the invention for producing a transistor structure according to the invention with two collector regions of different collector width by means of selective epitaxy,
- FIGS. 2a to 2e in a schematic cross-sectional view a second method according to the invention for producing a transistor structure with two collector regions with different collector widths by means of epitaxy over the entire surface
- the first method according to the invention described below with reference to FIGS. 1a to 1d for producing a transistor structure according to the invention with two collector regions of different collector widths is carried out by means of selective epitaxy.
- the, for example, n + -doped, buried layers 5.1 and 5.2 have already been introduced into the semiconductor substrate 1 and have been isolated from one another by insulation regions 4, here implemented as deep trenches 4.
- the semiconductor substrate 1 consists, for. B. from single-crystal silicon, which is p-doped.
- a first auxiliary layer 6 and a second auxiliary layer 7 are provided, which separate the insulation region 4 from the semiconductor substrate 1 and the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2.
- the second auxiliary layer 7 borders on the insulation region 4 and the first auxiliary layer 6 on the second auxiliary layer 7 as well as on the semiconductor substrate 1 and the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2.
- the second auxiliary layer 7 preferably consists of a material that is resistant to oxidation and can be etched selectively to oxide, such as silicon nitride Si 3 4. This enables side wall defects to be avoided, that is to say crystal defects that occur at the interface between a dielectric material and silicon epitaxial growth of silicon arise.
- the two ⁇ te auxiliary layer 7 may be formed of polysilicon.
- the thickness of this second auxiliary layer 7 is in the range between 3 nm to 60 nm.
- the first auxiliary layer 6 preferably consists of a material which can be etched selectively to the layer 7 and which avoids large mechanical stresses on the semiconductor substrate 1, such as an oxide. Furthermore, the auxiliary layer 6 can protect the sensitive silicon surface of the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2 from oxidation up to the epitaxy.
- the openings 12 are etched up to the second auxiliary layer 7 in an STI oxide layer 13, which preferably covers the entire area of the semiconductor substrate 1 with the auxiliary layers 6 and 7 located thereon.
- the etching can be carried out by anisotropic dry etching, which selectively stops on silicon nitride, and thus on the second auxiliary layer 7.
- a first collector region 2.1 with a thickness C1 and a collector zone 2.2.1 with a thickness C3 are then epitaxially deposited, the first collector region
- the col Lector zone 2.2.1 is provided for the second collector region of a second bipolar transistor.
- the thicknesses Cl and C3 of the collector area 2.1 and the collector zone 2.2.1 are approximately the same and are preferably between 50 nm and 300 nm.
- This collector zone 2.2.2 preferably has a thickness C4 which is between 100 nm and 200 nm.
- the collector width C2 of the second collector range 2.2 which is composed of the collector zones 2.2.1 and 2.2.2, is thus in the range between 150 nm and 500 nm.
- the second collector region 2.2 terminates at approximately the same height with the surface of the STI oxide layer 13.
- the collector width C1 of the first collector region 2.1 and the collector width C2 of the second collector region 2.2 are typically in a ratio to one another which is between 0.05 and 0.9. Typical values are 100 nm for the collector width Cl and 250 nm for the collector width C2.
- the different collector widths Cl and C2 of the two collector regions 2.1 and 2.2 on the same semiconductor substrate 1 ensure that both the properties of an RF transistor and an HV transistor are optimized.
- the method according to the invention for producing a transistor structure for two bipolar transistors using selective epitaxy which is described with reference to FIGS. 1a to 1d, is particularly simple.
- the various collector areas are deposited in successive epitaxial steps with the required thickness in the STI oxide layer 13, the already completed collector area 2.1 being covered by a masking layer 8 in order to prevent further epitaxial cutting.
- the areas required for epitaxial deposition in the STI oxide layer 13 are therefore only for the corresponding one
- collector areas 2.x with different collector widths and sharp transitions to the highly doped ones With the help of epitaxy over the entire area, it is possible to bury collector areas 2.x with different collector widths and sharp transitions to the highly doped ones
- the collector regions 2.x are planar at the same level with the surface of the STI oxide layer 13, the thicknesses D1 and D2 of the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2 being varied.
- This planar closure is particularly advantageous because planar surfaces are required for subsequent photo steps (not described here) with structure sizes smaller than 0.35 ⁇ m.
- a first zone 5.1.1 of a first buried layer and a further first zone 5.2.1 of one are covered over the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate 1 second buried layer has already been implanted, an epitaxial layer 9 with a thickness El is deposited.
- the first zones 5.1.1 and 5.2.1 are preferably n + -doped.
- a second zone 5.1.2 of the buried layer 5.1 and a second zone 5.2.2 of the buried layer 5.2 are then introduced into the epitaxial layer 9 in FIG. 2b, these second zones 5.x.2 also being n + -doped.
- the second zone 5.1.2 extends approximately over the area of the first zone 5.1.1, the second zone 5.2.2 of the buried layer 5.2, however, only over a partial area of the first zone 5.2.1 of the buried layer 5.2.
- a second epitaxial layer 10 is deposited over the entire area over the epitaxial layer 9 and the second zones 5.x.2 of the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2 in a thickness E2.
- this second epitaxial layer 10 can result from a single or a plurality of depositions in succession.
- the thickness E2 of this epitaxial layer 10 allows the collector width C1 of a first collector region to be determined, the collector width C1 corresponding to the thickness E2 of the epitaxial layer 10.
- the collector width C2 of the second collector region corresponds to the sum of the thicknesses El of the epitaxial layer 9 and the thickness E2 of the epitaxial layer 10.
- the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2 are isolated from one another in FIG. 2d by means of insulation regions 4, in the present example designed as deep trenches.
- the STI oxide layer 13 is then etched into the epitaxial layer 10 according to FIG. 2d and preferably filled with STI oxide, areas for the collector connection region 11 and the first and second collector regions 2.1 and 2.2 being left free. Then the collector connection areas 11 are connected via the second 5.2.2 and 5.1.2 are etched to enable the collector to be electrically connected.
- the first collector area 2.1 thus has a first collector width C1, the second collector area a larger collector width C2.
- Both collector areas 2.1 and 2.2 are planar with the surface of the STI oxide layer 13 and both have sharp transitions between the heavily doped areas of the buried layers 5.x and the less doped collector areas 2.x. This gives the transistor structure defined and precisely determinable properties.
- FIGS. 3a to 3c Another method according to the invention for producing a transistor structure according to the invention with two collector regions of different collector widths is described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 3a to 3c.
- FIG. 3a a structure is made available analogously to FIG. 1b, with a, preferably p-doped, semiconductor substrate 1, a first zone 5.1.1 implanted in the semiconductor substrate 1, a first buried layer and an implanted second buried layer 5.2, with a thickness D2, insulation areas 4, a first auxiliary layer 6 and a second auxiliary layer 7, an STI oxide layer 13 and the collector zones 2.1.1 and 2.2.1.
- the auxiliary layers 6 and 7 are undercut in FIG. 3a under the STI oxide layer 13, so that the collector zones 2.1.1 and 2.2.1 have a step-like profile in cross section.
- the STI oxide layer 13 shows an overhang over part of the collector zones 2.1.1 and 2.2.1.
- the thickness C3 of these collector zones 2.1.1 and 2.2.1 can vary between 5 nm and 300 nm.
- the collector zone 2.1.1 is doped, as shown by the arrows 15 in FIG. 3b, in such a way that they bury the same doping as the first zone 5.1.1 of the first Layer 5.1 has. This is preferably an n + doping.
- This newly formed second zone 5.1.2 and the first zone 5.1.1 now form the buried layer 5.1 with a thickness D1.
- a first collector region 2.1 is epitaxially deposited on the first buried layer 5.1 with a collector width C1 and on the collector zone 2.2.1 a further collector zone 2.2.2 with a thickness C4.
- the second collector area 2.2 now forms from the two collector zones 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 and has a collector width C2, which represents the sum of the thicknesses C3 and C4. Both collector regions 2.1 and 2.2 are planar with the surface of the STI oxide layer 13.
- the transistor structure of FIG. 3c is suitable for use in bipolar transistors.
- an insulating layer 3 is produced between the semiconductor substrate 1 and the buried layers 5.1 and 5.2.
- the generation of the collector regions 2.1 and 2.2 with different collector widths C1 and C2 and sharp transitions between the collector regions and the buried layers can correspond to the method according to the invention from FIGS. 3a to 3c.
- the methods according to the invention which are explained on the basis of FIGS.
- the first buried layer 5.1 and the second buried layer 5.2 are preferably designed as the same conductivity type. This configuration enables two similar transistor structures to be formed next to one another, that is to say, for example, two npn transistors or two pnp transistors.
- the first buried layer 5.1 and the second buried layer 5.2 are designed as different conductivity types. This makes it possible to form an npn transistor next to a pnp transistor on the same semiconductor substrate 1.
- the collector regions are formed with a dopant gradient, the concentration of the dopant varying in the horizontal direction.
- This development makes it possible, for example, to design an increased dopant concentration in the middle collector area.
- This development in particular with a small thickness of the collector area, reduces the base collector space charge zone and thus reduces the collector transit time.
- This development is particularly advantageous in the case of very small transistor structures in which the emitter region is arranged centrally above the collector region.
- filling trenches can also be used as insulation regions 4 instead of the deep trenches.
- the methods according to the invention enable the production of transistor structures with a first collector region 2.1, with a first collector mode C1, and a second collector region 2.2, with a larger collector width C2, on the same semiconductor substrate 1. with all transitions between differently doped areas have a sharp interface.
- the first collector region 2.1 is suitable for a high-frequency transistor with high cut-off frequencies f ⁇
- the second collector region 2.2 is suitable for a high-voltage transistor with increased breakdown voltages.
