관련 출원
본 출원은 이하의 동시계류중인(co-pending) 일반적으로 할당된 그 명칭이 Contact Structure of Semiconductor Device,”(Atty Docket No. TSM12-0787)인 특허 출원에 관한 것이고, 상기 출원은 참조에 의해 여기에 통합된다
기술분야
본 발명은 집적 회로 제조에 관한 것이고, 보다 구체적으로 접촉 구조를 갖는 반도체 디바이스에 관한 것이다.
반도체 산업이 더 높은 디바이스 밀도, 더 높은 성능, 및 더 낮은 비용을 위해서 나노미터 기술 공정 노드로 진행함에 따라 핀 전계 효과 트랜지스터(fin field effect transistor; FinFET) 등의 반도체 디바이스의 3차원 설계의 개발에서 제조 및 설계 모두로부터의 도전 과제가 발생되었다. 전형적인 FinFET은 예를 들어 기판의 실리콘층의 일부를 에칭함으로써 형성된 기판으로부터 연장하는 얇은 수직 "핀(fin)"(또는 핀 구조)와 함께 제조된다. FinFET의 채널은 이러한 수직 핀 내에 형성된다. 게이트는 핀의 3개의 측면(예를 들면, 래핑) 위에 제공된다. 채널의 양측 상에 게이트를 갖는 것은 양측으로부터 채널의 게이트 제어를 허용한다. FinFET의 추가의 이점은 짧은 채널 효과 및 더 높은 전류 흐름의 감소를 포함한다.
그러나, 상보성 금속 산화물 반도체(complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor; CMOS) 제조에서는 그러한 피쳐 및 공정을 구현하기 위한 도전 과제가 있다. 예를 들면, 변형 물질(strained material) 상의 실리사이드 형성은 FinFET의 영역의 소스/드레인의 높은 접촉 저항을 발생시킴으로써 디바이스의 성능을 저하시킨다.
실시예에 따르면, 반도체 디바이스 접촉 구조는 주면(major surface) 및 상기 주면 아래의 트렌치를 포함하는 기판; 상기 트렌치를 충진하는 변형 물질(strained material)로서, 상기 변형 물질의 격자 상수는 상기 기판의 격자 상수와 상이한 것인, 상기 변형 물질; 상기 변형 물질 위의 개구부를 갖는 층간 유전체(inter-layer dielectric; ILD)층으로서, 상기 개구부는 절연체 측벽 및 변형 물질 저부(bottom)를 포함하는 것인, 층간 유전체층; 상기 개구부의 측벽 및 저부를 코팅하고, 1 nm 내지 10 nm의 범위 내의 두께를 갖는 유전체층; 및 상기 유전체층의 코팅된 개구부를 충진하는 금속층을 포함한다.
또 다른 실시예에 따르면, 금속 산화물 반도체 전계 효과 트랜지스터(metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor; MOSFET)는 주면을 포함하는 기판; 상기 기판의 상기 주면 상의 게이트 스택; 상기 게이트 스택에 인접한 상기 주면 아래의 트렌치; 상기 게이트 스택에 대향하는 트렌치의 측면에 배치되고, 상기 기판 내에 있는 얇은 트렌치 절연 영역(shallow trench isolation; STI); 및 접촉 구조를 포함하고, 상기 접촉 구조는 상기 트렌치를 충진하는 변형 물질로서, 상기 변형 물질의 격자 상수는 상기 기판의 격자 상수와 상이한 것인, 상기 변형 물질; 상기 변형 물질 위의 개구부를 갖는 층간 유전체(inter-layer dielectric; ILD)층으로서, 상기 개구부는 절연체 측벽 및 변형 물질 저부를 포함하는 것인, 층간 유전체층; 상기 개구부의 측벽 및 저부를 코팅하고, 1 nm 내지 10 nm의 범위 내의 두께를 갖는 유전체층; 및 상기 유전체층의 코팅된 개구부를 충진하는 금속층을 포함한다.
또 다른 실시예에 따르면, 반도체 디바이스를 제조하는 방법은 주면 및 상기 주면 아래의 트렌치를 포함한 기판을 제공하는 단계; 상기 트렌치 내에 변형 물질(strained material)을 에피-성장시키는 단계로서, 상기 변형 물질의 격자 상수는 상기 기판의 격자 상수와 상이한 것인, 상기 에피-성장시키는 단계; 상기 변형 물질 위에 층간 유전체(inter-layer dielectric; ILD)층을 형성하는 단계; 상기 변형 물질의 일부를 노출하도록 상기 ILD층 내에 개구부를 형성하는 단계; 상기 개구부의 내부를 코팅하고 상기 ILD층 위로 연장하는 제 1 금속층을 형성하는 단계; 상기 변형 물질 위에 유전체층을 형성하도록 상기 제 1 금속층을 처리하는(treating) 단계; 및 상기 유전체층의 코팅된 개구부 내에 제 2 금속층을 형성하는 단계를 포함한다.

그 다음에, 포토레지스트층(도시되지 않음)이 스핀-온 코팅과 같은 적합한 공정에 의해 게이트 전극층(214) 위에 형성되고, 적당한 리소그래피 패터닝 방법에 의해 패터닝되어 패턴팅된 포토레지스트 피쳐를 형성한다. 적어도 하나의 실시예에 있어서, 패터닝된 포토레지스트 피쳐의 폭은 약 5 nm 내지 약 45 nm의 범위 내에 있다. 패터닝된 포토레지스트 피쳐는 게이트 스택(210)을 형성하기 위해 아래 놓인 층[즉, 게이트 전극층(214) 및 게이트 유전체층(212)]에 건식 에칭 공정을 사용하여 전사될 수 있다. 포토레지스트층은 이후에 박리될 수 있다.
여전히 도 2를 참조하면, 반도체 디바이스(200)는 게이트 스택(210) 및 기판(20)위에 형성되고 게이트 스택(210)의 측벽을 커버하는 유전체층을 더 포함한다. 유전체층은 실리콘 산화물, 실리콘 질화물 또는 실리콘 산화질화물을 포함할 수 있다. 유전체층은 단층 또는 다층 구조를 포함할 수 있다. 유전체층은 CVD, PVD, ALD 또는 다른 적합한 기술에 의해 형성될 수 있다. 유전체층은 약 5 nm 내지 약 15 nm의 범위 내의 두께를 포함한다. 그 다음에, 이방성 에칭이 게이트 스택(210)의 2개의 측면에 한쌍의 측벽 스페이서(216)를 형성하기 위해 유전체층에 수행된다.
도 3 및 도 1의 단계(102)를 참조하면, 핀 구조(202)의 부분들[그 위에 게이트 스택(210) 및 한 쌍의 측벽 스페이서(216)가 형성되는 부분 이외]은 게이트 스택(210)에 인접한 기판(20)의 주면(20s) 아래의 소스 및 드레인(S/D) 트렌치(206)(206a 및 206b를 포함함)를 형성하기 위해 리세스된다. 개시된 실시예에 있어서, S/D 트렌치(206) 각각은 게이트 스택(210)과 STI 영역(204) 중 하나의 사이에 있다. 이와 같이, S/D 트렌치(206a)는 게이트 스택 (206)에 인접하여 있는 반면, STI 영역(204a)은 게이트 스택(210)에 대향하는 S/D 트렌치(206a)의 측면에 배치된다. 이와 같이, S/D 트렌치(206b)는 게이트 스택(210)에 인접하여 있는 반면, STI 영역(204b)은 게이트 스택(210)에 대향하는 S/D 트렌치(206b)의 측면에 배치된다.
개시된 실시예에 있어서, 하드 마스크로서 게이트 스택(210)과 한 쌍의 측벽 스페이서(216)를 사용하여 S/D 트렌치(206)을 형성하도록 비보호되거나 노출된 기판(20)의 주면(20s)을 리세스하기 위해 바이어스된 에칭 공정이 수행된다. 하나의 실시예에 있어서, 에칭 공정은 약 1 mTorr 내지 약 1000 mTorr의 압력, 약 50 W 내지 약 1000 W의 전력, 약 20 V 내지 약 500 V의 바이어스 전압 하에 약 40 ℃ 내지 약 60 ℃의 온도에서 에칭 가스로 HBr 및/또는 Cl2를 사용하여 수행될 수 있다. 또한, 제공된 실시예에 있어서, 에칭 공정에서 사용된 바이어스 전압은 S/D 트렌치(206)를 위한 원하는 프로파일을 달성하기 위해 에칭 방향을 더 잘 제어할 수 있도록 조정될 수 있다.
도 4 및 도 1의 단계 104에 예시된 바와 같이, 기판(20)의 주면(20s) 아래의 S/D 트렌치(206)의 형성 이후에, 도 4의 구조는 S/D 트렌치(206)에서 변형 물질(208)을 에피 성장시킴으로써 생성되고, 여기서 변형 물질(208)의 격자 상수는 기판(20)의 격자 상수와 상이하다. 그러므로, 반도체 디바이스(200)의 채널 영역은 변형되거나 응력이 가해져 디바이스의 캐리어 이동성을 향상시킨다.
일부 실시예에 있어서, 변형 물질(208)은 Si, Ge, SiGe, SiC, SiP, 또는 III-V 반도체 물질을 포함한다. 개시된 실시예에 있어서, 사전 세정(pre-cleaning) 공정이 HF 또는 다른 적합한 솔루션으로 S/D 트렌치(206)을 세정하기 위해 수행될 수 있다. 그 다음에, 실리콘 게르마늄(SiGe)과 같은 변형 물질(208)은 S/D 트렌치(206)를 충진하기 위한 저압 CVD(LPCVD) 공정에 의해 선택적으로 성장된다. 하나의 실시예에 있어서, 변형 물질(208)의 상면은 주면(20s)(도시되지 않음)보다 낮다. 또 다른 실시예에 있어서, S/D 트렌치(206)를 충진한 변형 물질(208)은 주면(20s) 위에서 상향하여 연장된다. 개시된 실시예에 있어서, LPCVD 공정은 약 400 ℃ 내지 약 800 ℃의 온도에서 약 1 Torr 내지 약 15 Torr의 압력 하에 반응 가스로서 SiH2Cl2, HCl, GeH4, B2H6, 및 H2를 사용하여 수행한다.
이 시점까지의 공정 단계는 S/D 트렌치(206) 내에 변형 물질(208)을 갖는 기판(20)을 제공하고 있다. 일부 어플리케이션에 있어서, 변형 물질 (208)위의 실리사이드 영역은 니켈, 티타늄, 코발트 및 그 조합과 같은 금속 물질의 얇은 층을 증착하는 블랑켓으로 형성될 수 있다. 그 다음에, 기판(20)은 가열되어 실리콘이 접촉되는 금속에 반응하도록 한다. 반응 후에 금속 실리사이드의 층은 실리콘 함유 물질과 금속 사이에 형성된다. 비반응 금속은 금속 물질을 공격하지만 실리사이드는 공격하지 않는 에쳔트를 통하여 선택적으로 제거된다. 그러나, 금속 실리사이드와 변형 물질(208) 사이의 페르미 레벨 핀닝(Fermi level pinning)은 고정된 쇼트키 장벽 높이(Schottky barrier height; SBH)을 야기한다. 이 고정된 SBH는 반도체 디바이스의 S/D 영역의 높은 접촉 저항을 발생시켜 장치의 성능을 저하시킨다.
따라서, 도 5 내지 도 12를 참조하여 아래에 설명된 프로세싱은 실리사이드 영역을 대체하기위해 전도성 유전체층을 포함하는 접촉 구조를 형성할 수 있다. 전도성 유전체 층은 높은 저항 금속 실리사이드를 대체하기 위해 낮은 저항 중간층으로서 사용할 수 있다. 그와 같이, 접촉 구조는 반도체 장치의 S/D 영역의 낮은 접촉 저항을 제공할 수 있고, 따라서 디바이스의 성능을 향상시킨다.
반도체 디바이스 (200)의 접촉 구조[도 12에 나타낸 접촉 구조(230) 등]을 제조하는 도 5 및 도 6 과 도 1의 단계(106)에 예시된 바와 같이, 변형 물질(208),게이트 스택(210), 한 쌍의 스페이서 측면(216) 및 분리 영역(204) 위에 층간 유전체(ILD)층(218)을 형성함으로써 생성된다.
ILD층(218)은 유전체 물질을 포함한다. 유전체 물질은 실리콘 산화물, 실리콘 질화물, 실리콘 산화질화물, 포스포실리케이트 글래스(PSG), 보로포스포실리케이트 글라스 (BPSG), 스핀 온 글래스(SOG), 플루오리네이트 시리카 글래스(FSG), 탄소 도핑된 실리콘 산화물(예를 들어 SiCOH) 및/또는 그 조합을 포함할 수 있다. 일부 실시예에서, ILD층(218)은 CVD, 고밀도 플라즈마(HDP) CVD, 서브 대기CVD (SACVD), 스핀-온, 스퍼터링, 또는 다른 적합한 방법에 의해 변형 물질(208)을 위에 형성될 수 있다. 본 실시예에 있어서, ILD층(218)은 약 4000 Å 내지 약 8000 Å 내의 두께를 갖는다. ILD층(218)은 하나 이상의 유전체 물질 및/또는 하나 이상의 유전체층을 포함할 수 있다는 것이 이해된다.
ILD층(218)은 게이트 전극층(214)의 상면이 노출하거나 도달할 때까지 CMP 공정을 사용하여 평탄화된다(도 6에 나타냄). CMP 공정은 게이트 전극층(214)와 ILD층(218)에 대해 주로 평면 표면을 제공하도록 높은 선택성을 갖는다.
도 6의 반도체 디바이스(200)에 적용된 후속의 CMOS 프로세싱 단계는 ILD층(218)를 통해 접촉 개구부를 형성하여 반도체 디바이스(200)의 S/D 영역에 전기적 접촉을 제공하는 것을 포함한다. 도 7을 참조하면, 도 7의 구조는 변형 물질(208)의 일부를 노출하기 위해 ILD층(218)에서 개구부(220)를 형성함으로써 생성된다[도 1에서 단계(108)]. 일례로서, 개구부(220)의 형성은 ILD층(218) 위에 스핀 온 코팅과 같은 적합한 공정에 의해 포토레지스트의 층(도시되지 않음)을 형성하고, 적합한 리소그래피 방법에 의해 패터닝된 포토레지스터가 피쳐를 형성하도록 포토레지스터층을 패터닝하고, 변형 물질(208)의 일부를 노출하기 위해 제거하도록 노출된 ILD층(218)을 에칭(예를 들어, 건식 에칭, 습식 에칭 및/또는 플라즈마 에칭 공정을 사용함으로써)하는 것을 포함한다. 이와 같이, 개구부(220)는 변형 물질(208) 위에 있고, 여기서 개구부(220)는 변형 물질 저부(220b)와 유전체 측벽(220a)를 포함한다. 패터닝된 포토레지스트층은 이후 박리할 수 있다.
도 8 및 도 1의 단계(108)를 참조하면, ILD층(218) 내에 개구부(220)를 형성한 후에, 도 8의 구조는 개구부(220) 내부를 코팅하고 게이트 스택(210)과 ILD층(218) 위로 연장하는 제 1 금속 층(222)을 형성함으로써 생성된다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 제 1 금속층 (222)는 Ti, Al, Zr, Hf, Ta, In, Ni, Be, Mg, Ca, Y, Ba, Sr, Sc, 또는 Ga를 포함할 수 있고 CVD, ALD 또는 스퍼터링과 같은 방법을 사용하여 있다. 일부 실시예에서는 제 1 금속층(222)은 약 1 nm 내지 약 4 nm 범위 내의 제 1 두께(T1)이 있다.
도 9 및 도 10과 도 1의 단계(112)를 참조하면, 제 1 금속층(222)의 형성에 후속하여 도 10의 구조가 변형 물질(208) 위에 유전체층(226)을 형성하기 위해 제 1 금속층(222)을 처리함으로써 생성된다. 개시된 실시예에 있어서, 제 1 금속 층(222)을 처리하는 단계는 먼저 약 1*10-10 Torr에서 약 760 Torr의 산소 압력 하에 에어 또는 밀봉 챔버와 같은 산소 함유 환경에 제 1 금속층(222)의 표면을 노출함으로써 수행되고, 결과적으로 블랭킷 흡착된 산소 함유 필름(blanket adsorbed oxygen-containing film)(224)을 제 1 금속층(222)의 표면 위에 형성한다(도 9에 나타냄). 일부 실시예에 있어서, 산소 함유 환경은 H2O, O2, 또는 O3을 포함한다.
산소 함유 환경에서 제 1 금속층(222)의 표면을 노출한 후에, 제 1 금속층(222)을 처리하는 단계는 약 200 ℃ 내지 800 ℃의 온도에서 제 1 금속층(222)의 표면을 비활성 가스에 노출하는 것을 더 포함한다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 비활성 가스는 N2, He, 또는 Ar을 포함한다. 개시된 실시예에서 블랭킷 흡착된 산소 함유 필름(224)은 변형 물질(228) 위에 유전체층(226)을 형성하기 위해 접촉되는 제 1 금속층(222)과 반응한다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 개구부(220)의 내부를 코팅하는 유전체층(226)은 코팅된 개구부(220a)를 형성한다.
일부 실시예에 있어서, 유전체층(226)은 약 1 nm 내지 약 10 nm의 범위 내에 있는 제 2 두께(t2)를 갖고, 이것은 유전체층(226)을 전도성으로 만든다. 이와 같이, 유전체층(226)은 이후 전도성 유전체층(226)이라 한다. 적어도 하나의 실시예에서, 전도성 유전체층(226)은 TiO, TiO2 또는 Ti2O3을 포함한다. 대안의 실시예에서 전도성 유전체층(226)은 Al2O3을 포함한다. 대안의 실시예에서 전도성 유전체층은 Zr, Hf, Ta, In, Ni, Be, Mg, Ca, Y, Ba, Sr, Sc, Ga, 및 그 혼합물로 구성된 그룹의 산화물로부터 선택된다. 개시된 실시예에서 전도성 유전체층(226)은 고정된 SBH를 감소시키고 고저항 금속 실리사이드를 대체하기 위해 저저항 중간층으로서 사용할 수 있고 디바이스의 성능을 향상시킨다.
도 11 및 도 12와 도 1의 단계(114)를 참조하면, 전도성 유전체층(226)의 형성은 전도성 유전체층(226)의 코팅된 개구부(220a) 내에 제 2 금속층(228)을 형성함으로써 생성된다. 개시된 실시예에 있어서, 제 2 금속층(228)은 전도성 유전체층(226)의 코팅된 개구부(220a)를 충진하기 위해 유전체층(226) 위에 증착된다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 제 2 금속층(228)은 Ta, Ti, Hf, Zr, Ni, W, Co, Cu, 또는 Al을 포함한다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 제 2 금속층(228)은 CVD, PVD, 도금, ALD 또는 다른 적합한 기술에 의해 형성될 수 있다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 제 2 금속층(228)은 라미네이트를 포함할 수 있다. 라미네이트는 베리어 금속층, 라이너 금속층 또는 습윤 금속층을 더 포함할 수 있다. 또한, 제 2 금속층(228)의 두께는 코팅된 개구부(220a)의 깊이에 의존할 것이다. 그러므로, 제 2 금속층(228)은 코팅된 개구부(220a)가 거의 충진되거나 오버 충진될 때까지 증착된다.
그 다음에, 다른 CMP는 코팅된 개구부(220a)를 충진한 후에(도 12에 나타냄), 제 2 금속층(228)를 평면화하기 위해 수행된다. CMP가 코팅된 개구부(220a)의 외측의 제 2 금속층의 일부를 제거한 이후 CMP 공정은 ILD층(218)에 도달했을 때 정지할 수 있고, 그에 따라 실질적으로 평면의 표면을 제공한다.
일부 실시예에 있어서, 도 2 내지 도 12에 개시된 예에 관하여 반도체 디바이스(200)를 위한 접촉 구조(230)는 주면(20s) 및 주면(20s) 아래의 트렌치(206)를 포함한 기판(도 3 참조); 트렌치(206)를 충진하는 변형 물질(208) - 변형 물질(208)의 격자 상수는 기판(20)의 격자 상수와 상이함 -(도 4 참조); 변형 물질(208) 위의 개구부(220) - 개구부(220)는 유전체 측면(220a)과 변형 물질 저부(220b)를 포함 - 을 갖는 층간 유전체층(ILD)(218)(도 7 참조); 개구부(220)의 측벽(220a) 및 저부(220b)를 코팅하는 유전체층(226) - 유전체층(226)은 1 nm 내지 10 nm의 범위 내의 두께(t2)를 갖음 - (도 10 참조); 및 유전체층(226)의 코팅된 개구부(220a)를 충진하는 금속층(228)(도 12 참조)을 포함한다.
개시된 실시예에 있어서, 게이트 스택(210)은 게이트-퍼스트(gate-first) 공정을 사용하여 제조된다. 대안의 실시예에 있어서, 게이트 스택(210)은 더미 게이트 스택을 먼저 형성함으로써 수행되는 게이트-라스트(gate-last) 공정을 사용하여 제조될 수 있다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 게이트-라스트 공정은 더미 게이트 스택을 둘러싸는 ILD층을 형성하는 단계, ILD층 내에 트렌치를 형성하기 위해 더미 게이트 전극층 제거하는 단계, 그 다음에 전도성 게이트 전극층으로 트렌치를 충진하는 단계를 포함한다. 일부 실시예에 있어서, 게이트-라스트 공정은 더미 게이트 스택을 둘러싸는 ILD층을 형성하는 단계, ILD층 내에 트렌치를 형성하기 위해 더미 게이트 전극층 및 더미 게이트 전극층을 제거하는 단계, 그 다음에 게이트 유전체층과 전도성 게이트 전극층으로 트렌치를 충진하는 단계를 포함한다.

본 발명은 예시를 통해 바람직한 실시예의 측면에서 설명되었지만, 본 발명은 개시된 실시예에 한정되지 않음을 이해하여야 한다. 반대로, (당업자에게 명백해지는 바와 같이,) 다양한 수정 및 유사한 배치를 포함하도록 의도된다. 그러므로, 첨부된 청구항의 범위는 그러한 수정 및 유사한 배치를 모두 내포하기 위해서 가장 광범위한 해석을 따라야 한다.
