종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법에 대해 도 1a 내지 도 1e를 참조하여 설명하면 다음과 같다.A salicide formation method of a semiconductor device according to the related art will be described with reference to FIGS. 1A to 1E as follows.

도 1a 내지 도 1e는 종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 공정단면도이다.1A to 1E are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the related art.

종래기술에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법은, 도 1a에 도시된 바와같이, 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)과 살리사이드가 형성될 영역(B)으로 분할된 실리콘기판(11)상에 게이트산화막(13)과 게이트전극(15)을 차례로 형성한후 이들 측면에 LDD 스페이서(17)를 형성한다.In the method of forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the related art, as illustrated in FIG. 1A, the silicon substrate 11 is divided into a region A in which salicide is not formed and a region B in which salicide is to be formed. After the gate oxide film 13 and the gate electrode 15 are formed in this order, LDD spacers 17 are formed on these side surfaces.

그다음, 도 1b에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 전체 구조의 상면에 산화막(19)을 증착한후 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)에 해당하는 기판부분상에 감광물질층(21) (또는 BARC)을 도포한한다. 이때, 상기 산화막(19)은 나중에 살리사이드 생성과정에서 비살리사이드부위의 살리사이드가 생성되지 않도록 배리어산화막 물질로 작용한다.Then, as shown in FIG. 1B, after depositing the oxide film 19 on the upper surface of the entire structure, the photosensitive material layer 21 (or BARC) on the portion of the substrate corresponding to the region A where salicide is not formed. Apply). At this time, the oxide film 19 serves as a barrier oxide film material so that the salicide of the non-salicide portion is not produced later in the process of forming salicide.

이어서, 도 1c에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 감광물질층(21)을 에치백한후 감광물질층(21)을 제거한다. 이때, 상기 감광물질층(21)의 에치백공정시에 CHF3/CF4/O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각진행한 것이며, 여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2 가스 등을 포함할 수 있다. 또한, 상기 감광물질층(21)의 에치백공정을 진행하면서 게이트전극(15)위의 산화막(19)까지 식 각이 진행되어 게이트전극(15)위의 산화막이 잔류하지 않도록 한다.Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 1C, the photosensitive material layer 21 is etched back and the photosensitive material layer 21 is removed. At this time, the etching proceeds using an activated plasma such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / O 2 / Ar during the etch back process of the photosensitive material layer 21, and C 4 F 8 , C 2 F 6 , C 5 CxFy such as F 8 /, N 2 gas and the like. In addition, etching is performed to the oxide film 19 on the gate electrode 15 while the etch back process of the photosensitive material layer 21 is performed so that the oxide film on the gate electrode 15 does not remain.

그다음, 도 1d에 도시된 바와같이, 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)부분에 감광막패턴(23)을 형성한후 상기 제1감광막패턴(23)을 마스크로 상기 살리사이드가 형성될 영역(B)에 해당하는 기판부분에 있는 산화막(19)을 선택적으로 제거한후 감광막패턴(23)을 제거한다. 이때, 상기 산화막(19)의 일부분의 식각진행은 CHF3/CF4/O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각진행한 것이며, 여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2 가스 등을 포함할 수 있다. Next, as shown in FIG. 1D, after forming the photoresist pattern 23 on the region A where salicide is not formed, the region where the salicide is to be formed using the first photoresist pattern 23 as a mask ( After selectively removing the oxide film 19 on the substrate corresponding to B), the photoresist pattern 23 is removed. In this case, the etching of the portion of the oxide layer 19 is performed by using an activated plasma such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / O 2 / Ar, and the like C 4 F 8 , C2F 6 , C 5 F 8 And / or CxFy, N 2 gas, and the like.

Form salicide (or Co-salicide) 25 in the exposed portion of 15). At this time, salicide (or co-salicide) is not generated in the non-salicide portion by the remaining oxide barrier.

상기와 같은 종래기술에 의하면, LDD 구조를 형성한다음 감광막패턴을 배리어로 사용하여 살리사이드 부위의 산화막을 제거하고 이어 감광막패턴을 제거한후 살리사이드를 형성하므로 인해 공정 단계수가 증가하게 된다.According to the prior art as described above, since the LDD structure is formed and then the photoresist pattern is used as a barrier, an oxide film of the salicide region is removed, followed by the removal of the photoresist pattern, thereby forming a salicide, thereby increasing the number of process steps.

이어서, 도 2d에 도시된 바와같이, 다운 플로우 방식으로 블랭킷식각을 진행하여 상기 잔류하는 질화막(41)과 ONO박막(39)부분을 선택적으로 제거한다. 이때, 질화막 식각은 O2/CF4 가스를 이용한 다운 플로우(down flow)방식으로 진행한다. 이렇게 다운 플로우 방식으로 식각을 진행하게 되면 질화막과 산화막간의 선택비가 12:1정도가 되어 산화막 물질은 거의 제거되지 않게 되어 상기 ONO박막(39)부분중 NO부분만 제거되고 O(oxide)부분만 남게 된다.Next, as shown in FIG. 2D, blanket etching is performed in a downflow manner to selectively remove the remaining nitride film 41 and the ONO thin film 39. At this time, the nitride film etching is performed in a down flow method using O 2 / CF 4 gas. When the etching is performed in the downflow manner, the selectivity between the nitride film and the oxide film is about 12: 1, so that the oxide material is hardly removed. Only the NO part of the ONO thin film 39 is removed and only the O (oxide) part remains. do.

그다음, 도 2e에 도시된 바와같이, 전체 구조의 상면에 LDD구조를 만들기 위한 산화막(45)을 증착한다.Then, as shown in Fig. 2E, an oxide film 45 for forming an LDD structure is deposited on the upper surface of the entire structure.

이어서, 도 2f에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 산화막(45)을 건식식각하여 게이트전극(35a)(35b)측면에 스페이서(45a)을 형성한다. 이때, 상기 산화막(45)의 식각진행은 CHF3/CF4/O2/Ar 또는 C4F8/O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 진행한다. 여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2, O2 등을 포함할 수 있다. 이렇게 식각공정을 진행하게 되면, 비살리사이드영역(A)부분의 활성영역에는 잔류산화막이 계속 남게 되고, 나머지 부분인 이중 게이트전극부분과 살리사이드영역(B)가 형성될 활성영역표면에는 산화막이 남지 않게 된다.Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 2F, the oxide layer 45 is dry-etched to form spacers 45a on the side surfaces of the gate electrodes 35a and 35b. In this case, the etching process of the oxide layer 45 is performed using an activated plasma such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / O 2 / Ar or C 4 F 8 / O 2 / Ar. It may include C 4 F 8 , C 2 F 6 , C 5 F 8 / CxFy, N 2 , O 2 , and the like. When the etching process is performed, the remaining oxide film remains in the active region of the non-salicide region (A), and the oxide film is formed on the surface of the active region where the remaining double gate electrode portion and the salicide region (B) are to be formed. It will not remain.

그다음, 도 2g에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 드러난 이중 게이트전극(35a)(35b)상면과 살리사이드영역(B)의 활성영역표면에 살리사이드막(47)을 형성한다.Then, as shown in FIG. 2G, a salicide film 47 is formed on the exposed double gate electrodes 35a and 35b and on the active region surface of the salicide region (B).

상기에서 설명한 바와같이, 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법에 의하면, 감광막(또는, BARC)의 에치백공정을 진행하지 않기 때문에 공정상 파티클에 대한 오염이 적게 된다.As described above, according to the method for forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, since the etch back process of the photosensitive film (or BARC) is not performed, contamination to particles is reduced in the process.

또한, 기존과는 다르게 LDD스페이서를 형성하는 단계에서 비살리사이드 (또는 Co-salicide)와 살리사이드영역을 구분하여 형성시킬 수 있게 된다.In addition, unlike the conventional method, the non-salicide (or co-salicide) and the salicide region may be formed by forming the LDD spacer.

그리고, 비살리사이드영역과 살리사이드영역에 선택적으로 살리사이드를 형성할 수 있게 된다.Then, the salicide can be selectively formed in the nonsalicide region and the salicide region.

한편, 본 발명은 상술한 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 한정되지 아니하며, 청구범위에서 청구하는 본 발명의 요지를 벗어남이 없이 당해 발명이 속하는 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자라면 누구든지 다양한 변경 실시가 가능할 것이다.On the other hand, the present invention is not limited to the above-described specific preferred embodiments, and various changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the gist of the invention claimed in the claims. will be.
