Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a three-dimensional CMOS field-effect transistor having a Fin structure and a method of manufacturing the same.
In general, discrete components such as metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) field effect transistors are mainly used for switching semiconductor devices. Recently, as the degree of integration of semiconductor devices increases due to the rapid development of the semiconductor industry, MOS field effect transistors are gradually scaled down. However, the scaling down of the MOS field effect transistor leads to a decrease in the channel area and the channel length, which causes problems such as a short channel effect and a deterioration in the gate control force, which makes it difficult to highly integrate the semiconductor devices.
In order to solve the above problem, generally, a method of highly doping channel ions in a channel region is used. However, in this case, the channel resistance increases and the current driving capability is reduced.
Therefore, as another solution for the high integration of semiconductor devices, researches on field effect transistors whose structures are extended in three dimensions have been widely carried out. In this case, research has been actively conducted on a pin field effect transistor which increases a channel area by protruding a channel region in the form of a fin and forming a gate electrode on the semiconductor substrate including the channel region.
In general, a semiconductor device employs a CMOS field effect transistor including an NMOS field effect transistor and a PMOS field effect transistor. At this time, electrical characteristics such as current driving capability required for each of the NMOS field effect transistor and the PMOS field effect transistor may be different depending on the type of the semiconductor device employing the CMOS field effect transistor.
When the semiconductor device is an inverter, the electrical characteristics of the NMOS field effect transistor and the PMOS field effect transistor must be balanced. However, generally, in the same structure, the current drive capability of the PMOS field effect transistor is about 1/2 to 1/3 the current drive capability of the NMOS field effect transistor. Therefore, in order to implement the inverter, it is necessary to improve the current driving capability of the PMOS field effect transistor to the same or similar level as the current driving ability of the NMOS field effect transistor.
Conventionally, a technique of increasing the gate width of the PMOS field-effect transistor by about 2 to 3 times as much as the NMOS field-effect transistor has been used to improve the current driving capability of the PMOS field-effect transistor. However, when the above-described technique is applied, there is a problem that the operation speed of the inverter is delayed and a large offset noise is caused in switching. This is because the charge transfer characteristics between the NMOS field-effect transistor and the PMOS field-effect transistor are basically different from each other, and only the control of the current by the increase of the gate width limits the balance in the switching.
To improve this, Professor T. Ohmi of Tohoku University in Japan proposed a CMOS field effect transistor by controlling the orientation of the substrate. The CMOS field effect transistor is used as a substrate of a PMOS field effect transistor as a (551) oriented silicon substrate, which greatly improves the mobility of charge. However, since the above-described technique uses the orientation control of the substrate, it is difficult to implement the NMOS field effect transistor and the PMOS field effect transistor simultaneously in one substrate orientation.
As described above, there has been a limit in improving the electrical characteristic difference between the NMOS field effect transistor and the PMOS field effect transistor for the implementation of the inverter in the prior art.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of manufacturing a three-dimensional CMOS field-effect transistor. The method includes forming a separation layer for separating an NMOS active region and a PMOS active region in a semiconductor substrate, etching the semiconductor substrate in one region with the separation layer therebetween to form a first fin, Forming a second fin by etching the semiconductor substrate in another region with the isolation film interposed therebetween; defining a p-channel region in the second fin to define a PMOS active Forming a gate insulating film on the semiconductor substrate defining the n-channel region and the p-channel region, and forming a gate electrode to cover the sidewalls and upper surfaces of the n-channel region and the p-channel region, .

4 is a graph illustrating a result of a computer simulation of a current-voltage of a three-dimensional CMOS field-effect transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention. A SiO 2 film having a thickness of 20 nm was used as a gate insulating film, the height of the first fin of the NMOS active region was set to 48 nm, and the height of the second fin of the PMOS active region was set to 80 nm.
Referring to FIG. 4, it can be seen that the threshold voltage of the p-type MOSFET device in the PMOS active region is -0.409 V and the threshold voltage (V th ) of the n-type MOSFET device in the NMOS active region is approximately 0.471 V. The subthreshold slope (SS) of the p-type MOSFET device in the PMOS active region is -82.3 mV / decade, and the subthreshold slope (SS) of the n-type MOSFET device in the NMOS active region is approximately equal to + 79.8 mV / decade Can be confirmed. Therefore, when the height (80 nm) of the second fin of the PMOS active region is about 1.7 times higher than that of the first fin (48m) of the NMOS active region, it can be seen that the electric characteristics of both MOSFET devices exhibit substantially similar values.
