Description

Tunneling Field Effect Transistor and Manufacturing Method Thereof}

The present invention relates to a tunneling field effect transistor and a method of manufacturing the same.

Currently, MOSFETs (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors) continue to be miniaturized and integrated. Following this trend, the channel length of the Field Effect Transistor has been continuously reduced, resulting in drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL), punchthrough, impact ionization and subthreshold leakage currents. Short channel effects such as subthreshold leakage current occur. Power consumption, along with the short channel effect, is one of the other important issues in current nanoelectronics. Scaling the supply reduces the energy required for switching, but in today's integrated circuits an increase in gate voltage of at least 60 mV is required to increase the current by about 10 times at room temperature.

To overcome these limitations, Tunneling Field Effect Transistors (TFETs), which can inject charge carriers into channels using quantum mechanical effects called band-to-band tunneling, are proposed. It became. The operation mechanism of the tunneling field effect transistor will be described with reference to FIG. 1. The band diagram before biasing the n-channel TFET is shown in Figure 1 (a). It is very unlikely that electrons located in the valence band before being biased are injected into the body region by tunneling the band. However, if, for example, a constant potential is applied to the source and the drain and a predetermined potential is applied to the gate, the band of the body is shifted down by a certain amount by the applied potential as shown in FIG. do. Therefore, electrons located in the source side balance band are injected into the body region by tunneling the band. This phenomenon is called Band To Band Tunneling (BTBT), which is the main operating mechanism of the TFET.

Conventional TFETs have a drawback in that the width of the channel through which the current flows is formed in a straight line so that the maximum amount of current that can flow is limited. In order to remedy these shortcomings, a method of using a double gate structure, a vertical pillar nanowire structure, and a group III-V compound semiconductor has been proposed. The disadvantage is that it is difficult.

The present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art, and to provide a structure of a TFET having improved current driving performance by increasing the width of the channel. Another object of the present invention is to provide a structure of a TFET having improved current driving performance using a conventional MOS process.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described embodiments of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective schematic view of a tunneling field effect transistor (TFET) according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line AA ′ of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a sectional view taken along line BB ′ of FIG. 1. to be. For reference, in FIG. 2, the semiconductor substrate 110 is illustrated as transparent for convenience of understanding. 2, 3, and 4, a tunneling field effect transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a semiconductor substrate 110 having a gate recess R having a predetermined depth, and the recess ( The gate insulating layer 120 formed in R, the gate 130 formed through the gate insulating layer 120 in the gate recess R, and the first conductive dopant are doped and are recessed. A drain doped with a source 140 and a second conductivity type dopant formed deeper than the depth of the recess on one side of the drain and formed deeper than the depth of the recess on the other side of the recess R , 150). 2 and 4, the source 140 and the drain 150 are formed to have a predetermined thickness between the semiconductor substrate 110 and each of the buried insulating layers 160S and 160D. do. Through such a structure, gate-to-gate capacitance and gate-to-drain capacitance can be minimized. In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, the source 140 and the drain 150 may have a structure in which the buried insulating layers 160S and 160D are not buried in order to simplify the manufacturing process. The source and drain are heavily doped with opposite conductivity types. In one embodiment, drain 150 is doped with N + if source 140 is doped with P +. In another embodiment, drain 150 is P + doped if source 140 is doped with N +.

In one embodiment, the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140. The fact that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140 means that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R is not physically formed beyond the outer circumferential surface or the inner circumferential surface of the source 140. Rather, when an operating voltage is applied between the source 140 and the drain 150, and a threshold voltage is applied to the gate 130, band to band tunneling (BTBT) does not occur. This means that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R is not formed beyond the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140. This will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 6. 6 is a cross-sectional view of a surface where the source 140 is in contact with the gate in which the recess R is formed, and according to a relationship between the outer circumferential surface of the gate and the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source, Shown by dividing). 6 illustrates a gate 130 and a gate insulating layer 120, and a buried insulating layer 160S is positioned toward the source 140 at a corresponding position. The cross section of the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess is denoted by RP, and the inner perimeter of the source 140 is the interface between the source 140 and the buried insulating film 140S, and is represented by SIP, and the outer circumferential surface of the source 140 ( The outer perimeter is indicated by SOP as an interface between the source 140 and the semiconductor substrate 110. In addition, the region where band-to-band tunneling occurs is indicated as TR. Referring to FIG. 6A, the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate-formed recess coincides with the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source. In this case, the region TR where band-to-band tunneling occurs is located between the inner circumferential surface SIP and the outer circumferential surface SOP of the source. In this case, therefore, the outer perimeter of the gate recess does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface of the source or the drain. Referring to FIG. 6B, the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess R does not coincide with the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source, and the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess is physically the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source. It can be seen that, but the band-to-band tunneling occurs in the TR region when the driving voltage is applied to the source 140 and the drain 150 and the threshold voltage is applied to the gate 130. Can be. Accordingly, in the case of FIG. 6B, the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface SOP of the source or the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source. Referring to FIG. 6C, the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess R does not coincide with the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source, but is physically formed beyond the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source. In the case where the driving voltage is applied to the source 140 and the drain 150, and the threshold voltage is applied to the gate 130, band-to-band tunneling does not occur. Therefore, when formed as shown in FIG. 6C, it can be seen that the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess substantially exceeds the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source. Referring to FIG. 6 (d), the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess R does not coincide with the inner circumferential surface SIP of the source and is physically formed beyond the outer circumferential surface SOP of the source. It can be seen that band-to-band tunneling does not occur when a driving voltage is applied to the source 140 and the drain 150 formed as described above and a threshold voltage is applied to the gate 130. Therefore, in the case of FIG. 6D, it can be seen that the outer circumferential surface RP of the gate recess substantially exceeds the inner circumferential surface SOP of the source.

2 to 3, the bottom portion of the gated recess R, the bottom portion of the gate 130, the bottom portion of the source 140 and the bottom portion of the drain 150 are shown in FIGS. It is formed into a curved surface. As such, the channel width of the source 140, the drain 150, and the gate 130 is increased by the depth of the semiconductor substrate. In addition, the bottom portion of the source 140, the drain 150, and the gate 130 is formed as a curved surface as shown. At this time, considering the cross section of the bottom of the source 140, the drain 150 and the gate 130, as shown in Figure 7 the bottom of the source 140, drain 150 and the gate 130 in a plane It can be seen that the channel width increases when it is formed in a curved surface compared to when formed (dotted line). Increasing the channel width means that the area where band-to-band tunneling takes place increases, which means that the current in the on state of the transistor increases. Therefore, according to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an advantage that a tunneling field effect transistor having excellent driving current characteristics can be obtained.

In another embodiment, the bottom portion of the gated recess R, the bottom portion of the gate 130, the bottom portion of the source 140 and the bottom portion of the drain 150 are planar as shown by the dotted lines in FIG. 7. Is formed. According to the present exemplary embodiment, the channel width of the source 140, the drain 150, and the gate 130 is increased by the depth of the semiconductor substrate. Advantages of increasing the channel width by the recessed depth and the bottom portion of the recess R, the bottom portion of the gate 130, the bottom portion of the source 140 and the bottom portion of the drain 150 can be formed in a plane. The benefits of simplicity of process are at the same time.

Next, a method of manufacturing a tunneling field effect transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 8 to 13. 8 to 13 are cross-sectional views illustrating an outline of a process of manufacturing a tunneling field effect transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 8, a semiconductor substrate 110 on which a tunneling field effect transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention is formed is prepared. In one embodiment, the semiconductor substrate is a silicon substrate as shown in FIG. 8. In another embodiment, the semiconductor substrate is a silicon substrate on which a buried oxide film is formed although not shown. The dopant is implanted into the semiconductor substrate to form the source region 142 and the drain region 152, respectively. In an embodiment, the step of forming the source region 142 and the drain region 152 is performed by injecting high concentrations of dopants of different conductivity types using a mask process. As an example, when the N type dopant is implanted at a high concentration to form the source region 142, the drain region 152 is formed by implanting the P type dopant at a high concentration. As another example, when the P type dopant is implanted at a high concentration to form the source region 142, the drain region 152 is formed by implanting the N type dopant at a high concentration. In one embodiment, when dopants are implanted to form the source region 142 and the drain region 152, the dopant implantation energy is strongly controlled at the central portions of the source region 142 and the drain region 152, and the source As shown in FIG. 2, the bottom portion of the source region 142 and the drain region 152 may be formed to have a curved surface by slightly adjusting the injection energy toward the periphery of the region 142 and the drain region 152. In another embodiment, bottom portions of the source region 142 and the drain region 152 are formed in a plane. Forming in this way can simplify the manufacturing process. 8 illustrates the formation of the source region 142 by implanting the dopant of the first conductivity type and the formation of the drain region 152 by implanting the dopant of the second conductivity type, which is purely easy to understand. For this purpose, in the actual process, the source region 142 is formed and the drain region 152 is formed. As another example, after forming the drain region 152, the source region 142 is formed.

Referring to FIG. 9, the gate substrate R is formed by etching the semiconductor substrate 110. In one embodiment, as described above, in one embodiment, the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140. The fact that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R does not substantially exceed the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140 means that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R is not physically formed beyond the outer circumferential surface or the inner circumferential surface of the source 140. Rather, when an operating voltage is applied between the source 140 and the drain 150, and a threshold voltage is applied to the gate 130, band to band tunneling (BTBT) does not occur. This means that the outer circumferential surface of the gate recess R is not formed beyond the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the source 140.

Referring to FIG. 10, a gate insulating layer 120 is formed in the gate recess R. Referring to FIG. The gate insulating film is an important component that determines the performance of the transistor, and it is necessary to form the gate insulating film in high purity. In one embodiment, after the gate recess R is formed, a cleaning process is performed to form a high purity gate insulating film before forming the gate insulating film 120.

Referring to FIG. 11, a gate 130 is formed in the gate recess R on which the gate insulating layer 120 is formed. In an embodiment, the forming of the gate 130 is performed by forming a material layer forming the gate such that the gate recess R is buried, and then performing a planarization process targeting the semiconductor substrate 110. For example, the planarization process is performed by performing chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). In another example, the planarization process is performed by performing an etch back process.

12 and 13 are cross-sectional views taken along line X-X ', unlike FIGS. Referring to FIG. 12, portions of the source region 142 and the drain region 152 are etched to form a source region recess SR and a drain region recess DR. A buried insulating film is formed in the source region recess SR and the drain region recess DR in a later step. Although only the source region recess SR is illustrated in FIG. 13, the drain region recess DR is formed through the same process or another process.

Referring to FIG. 13, a buried insulating layer 160 is formed in the source region recess SR and the drain region recess DR. In one embodiment, the buried insulating layers 160S and 160D are formed in the source region recess and the drain region recess to form the capacitance between the gate 130 and the source 140 and the capacitance between the gate 130 and the drain 150. Can be reduced. In one embodiment, the buried insulating layers 160S and 160D form an oxide film on the entire surface of the semiconductor substrate 110 to fill the source region recess SR and the drain region recess DR, and then the semiconductor substrate 110. It is formed by performing a planarization process to target the front surface of. In one example, the planarization process is performed by performing the above-described chemical mechanical polishing. In another example, the planarization process is performed by performing the above-described etch back process.

That is, all other characteristics except the channel width according to the recess are the same as in the comparative example. FIG. 15 is a perspective view showing an orange region of band-to-band tunneling. FIG. It can be seen that the channel is formed along the shape of the cross section of the gate contacting the source. In comparison with FIG.
