Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of forming a salicide of a semiconductor device, and more particularly, to a salicide (salicide or co-salicide) region and a non-salicide (non-salicide or non-cosalicide) region in one chip of a semiconductor device. The present invention relates to a method for forming a salicide of a semiconductor device which can be formed simultaneously.
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 도포한다. 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. ) Is applied. 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, N2가스 등을 포함할 수 있다. 또한, 상기 감광물질층(21)의 에치백공정을 진행하면서 게이트전극(15)위의 산화막(19)까지 식각이 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 may include F 8 / etc. of CxFy, N 2 gas or 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, N2가스 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.
이어서, 도 1e에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)의 게이트전극(15)부분과 살리사이드가 형성될 영역(B)에 해당하는 실리콘기판(11) 및 게이트전극(15)의 노출된 부분에 살리사이드 (또는 Co-salicide) (25)을 형성한다. 이때, 비 살리사이드 부분에는 잔류하는 산화막 배리어에 의해서 살리사이드 (또는 Co-salicide)가 생성되지 않는다.Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 1E, the silicon substrate 11 and the gate electrode corresponding to the portion of the gate electrode 15 of the region A in which the salicide is not formed and the region B in which the salicide is to be formed are formed. 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.
이에 본 발명은 상기 종래기술의 제반 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출한 것으로서, 반도체 디바이스의 한 개의 칩내에 살리사이드(salicide 또는 Co-salicide) 영역과 비살리사이드(non-salicide 또는 non-cosalicide)영역을 선택적으로 동시에 형성할 수 있어 공정단계수를 줄일 수 있는 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법을 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and a salicide (salicide or co-salicide) region and a non-salicide (non-salicide or non-cosalicide) region in one chip of a semiconductor device.

(실시예)(Example)
이하, 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법을 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, a method of forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도 2a 내지 도 2h는 본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법을 설명하기 위한 공정단면도이다.2A to 2H are cross-sectional views illustrating a method of forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the present invention.
본 발명에 따른 반도체소자의 살리사이드 형성방법은, 도 2a에 도시된 바와같이, 먼저 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)와 살리사이드영역이 형성될 영역(B)으로 분할된 실리콘기판(31)상에 게이트 형성용 폴리실리콘층(33)을 증착한후 그 위에 하드마스크층(35)을 증착한다.In the method for forming a salicide of a semiconductor device according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2A, a silicon substrate 31 is divided into a region A in which salicide is not to be formed and a region B in which the salicide region is to be formed. ) And then depositing a gate layer polysilicon layer 33 on the hard mask layer 35 thereon.
그다음, 상기 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)에 위치하는 상기 하드마스크층(35)의 일부분상에 제1감광막패턴(37)을 형성한다.Next, a first photoresist layer pattern 37 is formed on a portion of the hard mask layer 35 positioned in the region A where the salicide is not formed.
이어서, 도 2b에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 제1감광막패턴(37)을 마스크로 상기 상기 하드마스크층(35)을 선택적으로 제거한다. 이때, 상기 하드마스크층(35)의 식각진행은, CHF3/CF4/O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각진행한 것이며,여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2가스 등을 포함할 수 있다. 여기서, 식각가스 및 가스유량으로는 CHF3: 1∼200sccm, CF4: 1∼200sccm, O2: 0∼20sccm, Ar : 1∼1000sccm이거나 이들외에 C4F8,: 1∼50sccm, N2, : 0∼500sccm을 사용한다.Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 2B, the hard mask layer 35 is selectively removed using the first photoresist pattern 37 as a mask. In this case, the etching of the hard mask layer 35 is performed by using an activated plasma such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / O 2 / Ar, wherein C 4 F 8 , C 2 F 6 , C 5 F 8 / etc., CxFy, N 2 gas and the like. Here, the etching gas and the gas flow rate may be CHF 3 : 1-200 sccm, CF 4 : 1-200 sccm, O 2 : 0-20 sccm, Ar: 1-1000 sccm, or else C 4 F 8 ,: 1-50 sccm, N 2 ,: 0 to 500sccm is used.
그다음, 제1감광막패턴(37)을 제거한후 전체 구조의 상면에 감광물질을 도포한후 포토리소그라피 공정기술에 의해 노광 및 현상공정을 거쳐 상기 감광물질층을 선택적으로 제거하여 상기 살리사이드 형성영역(B)의 일부분에 제2감광막패턴(39)을 형성한다.Then, after removing the first photoresist pattern 37, the photosensitive material is applied to the upper surface of the entire structure, and then the photosensitive material layer is selectively removed by photolithography process technology to selectively remove the salicide forming region ( A second photoresist pattern 39 is formed on a portion of B).
이어서, 도 2c에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 제2감광막패턴(39)과 상기 하드마스크층패턴(35a)을 마스크로 상기 게이트 형성용 폴리실리콘층(33)을 선택적으로 제거하여 게이트전극(33a)(33b)를 형성한후 제2감광막패턴(39)을 제거한다. 이때, 상기 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)에는 하드마스크층패턴(35a)이 존재하여 마스크 역할을 하기 때문에 감광막패턴은 필요하지 않는다. 또한, 상기 게이트전극(33a)는 살리사이드가 형성되지 않을 영역(A)에 위치하고, 게이트전극(33b)는 살리사이드가 형성될 영역(B)에 위치한다. 이때, 상기 게이트형성용 폴리실리콘층(33) 식각은 Cl2/HBr/He-O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 진행한다. 또한, 상기 폴리실리콘과 질화막간의 선택비는 약 200∼300:1 정도가 되기 때문에 질화막 하드마스크를 배리어로 사용하여 패턴 진행시에 하드마스크인 질화막은 폴리실리콘에 비해 식각되는 정도가 적기 때문에 질화막 하드마스크층(35a)은 계속 남아 있게 된다.Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 2C, the gate forming polysilicon layer 33 is selectively removed using the second photoresist layer pattern 39 and the hard mask layer pattern 35a as a mask to form a gate electrode 33a. After forming 33b, the second photosensitive film pattern 39 is removed. In this case, since the hard mask layer pattern 35a exists in the region A in which the salicide is not formed, and serves as a mask, the photoresist pattern is not necessary. In addition, the gate electrode 33a is positioned in a region A where salicide is not formed, and the gate electrode 33b is positioned in a region B in which salicide is to be formed. At this time, the gate forming polysilicon layer 33 is etched using an activated plasma such as Cl 2 / HBr / He-O 2 / Ar. In addition, since the selectivity ratio between the polysilicon and the nitride film is about 200 to 300: 1, the nitride film hard mask is used as a barrier so that the nitride film, which is a hard mask during etching, is less etched than the polysilicon. The mask layer 35a remains.
그다음, 전체 구조의 상면에 LDD용 산화막(미도시)을 증착한후 이를 이방성 식각에 의해 선택적으로 제거하여 상기 게이트전극(33a)(33b)측면에 LDD스페이서(41)를 형성한다. 이때, 상기 LDD산화막(미도시)의 일부분의 식각진행은 CHF3/CF4/O2/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각진행한 것이며, 여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2, O2등을 포함할 수 있다.Then, an LDD oxide film (not shown) is deposited on the top surface of the entire structure and then selectively removed by anisotropic etching to form the LDD spacer 41 on the side of the gate electrodes 33a and 33b. At this time, the etching progress of a portion of the LDD oxide film (not shown) is performed by using an activated plasma, such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / O 2 / Ar, such as C 4 F 8 , C2F 6 , C 5 It may include F 8 / etc. of CxFy, N 2, O 2 or the like.
이어서, 도 2d에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 LDD스페이서(41)을 형성한후 전체 구조의 상면에 버퍼질화막(43)을 증착한후 상기 버퍼질화막(43)상에 감광물질을 도포하고, 이어 포토리소그라피 공정기술에 의한 노광 및 현상공정을 거쳐 상기 감광물질층을 선택적으로 패터닝하여 상기 살리사이드 형성영역(B)에 위치하는 버퍼질화막(43)의 일부분상에 제3감광막패턴(45)을 형성한다. 이때, 상기 버퍼질화막(43)증착시에 도 2c에서와 같이 LDD 스페이서(41)를 형성한 후에 활성영역에 산화막 (즉, 게이트산화막)이 잔류하고 있다면 바로 증착이 가능하지만 게이트산화막이 존재하지 않는다면 웨이퍼의 스트레스를 방지하기 위하여 약간의 산화막을 성장시킨후에 질화막을 증착시켜야 한다.Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 2D, after the LDD spacer 41 is formed, a buffer nitride film 43 is deposited on the upper surface of the entire structure, and then a photosensitive material is coated on the buffer nitride film 43. The photosensitive material layer is selectively patterned through an exposure and development process using a lithography process technology to form a third photoresist pattern 45 on a portion of the buffer nitride film 43 positioned in the salicide forming region B. . In this case, when the buffer nitride layer 43 is deposited, an oxide layer (ie, a gate oxide layer) remains in the active region after forming the LDD spacer 41 as shown in FIG. 2C, but if the gate nitride layer does not exist In order to prevent the stress of the wafer, a slight oxide film must be grown before the nitride film is deposited.
그다음, 도 2e에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 제3감광막패턴(45)을 마스크로 상기 상기 비실리사이드 형성영역(A)부분에 있는 버퍼질화막(43)을 제거하여 실리콘기판(31)의 활성영역표면이 드러나도록한다. 이때, 상기 버퍼질화막(43)의 식각진행은 CHF3/CF4/Ar 또는 C4F8/Ar 등의 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각진행한다. 여기에 C4F8, C2F6, C5F8/등의 CxFy, N2, O2등을 포함할 수 있다.Next, as shown in FIG. 2E, the buffer nitride film 43 in the portion of the non-silicide formation region A is removed using the third photoresist pattern 45 as a mask to form an active surface of the silicon substrate 31. Let this reveal. At this time, the etching progress of the buffer nitride layer 43 is performed by using an activated plasma, such as CHF 3 / CF 4 / Ar or C 4 F 8 / Ar. It may include C 4 F 8 , C 2 F 6 , C 5 F 8 / CxFy, N 2 , O 2 , and the like.
이어서, 도 2f에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 드러난 실리콘기판(31)의 활성영역표면을 산화시켜 산화막(47)을 형성한다. 이때, 상기 버퍼질화막(43)에는 산화시킬 수 있는 소오스 (즉, Si 성분)가 존재하지 않기 때문에 산화막이 존재하지 않는다.Subsequently, as illustrated in FIG. 2F, the surface of the exposed active region of the silicon substrate 31 is oxidized to form an oxide film 47. At this time, since the source (that is, Si component) that can be oxidized does not exist in the buffer nitride film 43, the oxide film does not exist.
그다음, 도 2g에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 비실리사이드영역(A)의 게이트전극(33a)상면에 있는 하드마스크층패턴(35a)과 실리사이드영역(B)에 있는 버퍼질화막(43a)부분을 제거한다. 이때, 상기 이들 막의 성분인 질화막의 제거는 활성화된 플라즈마를 이용하여 식각하는 것이 아니라 O2/CF4가스를 이용하여 다운 플로우(down flow)방식으로 식각을 진행한다. 이렇게 다운 플로우 방식으로 식각을 진행하게 되면 질화막과 산화막간의 선택비가 12:1정도가 되어 산화막 물질은 거 제거되지 않아 비살리사이드영역(A)의 활성영역에 생성된 산화막(47)을 보호할 수가 있다.Next, as shown in FIG. 2G, the hard mask layer pattern 35a on the upper surface of the gate electrode 33a of the non-silicide region A and the portion of the buffer nitride film 43a in the silicide region B are removed. . At this time, the removal of the nitride film, which is a component of these films, is not etched using the activated plasma but is etched in a down flow manner using O 2 / CF 4 gas. When the etching is performed in the down-flow manner, the selectivity between the nitride film and the oxide film is about 12: 1, so that the oxide material is not removed, thereby protecting the oxide film 47 formed in the active region of the nonsalicide region (A). have.
이어서, 도 2h에 도시된 바와같이, 상기 드러난 비실리사이드영역(A)의 게이트전극(33a)의 상면과 실리사이드영역(B)의 활성영역과 게이트전극(33b)의 상면에 살리사이드막(49)을 형성한다.Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 2H, the salicide layer 49 is formed on the top surface of the gate electrode 33a of the exposed silicide region A, the active region of the silicide region B, and the top surface of the gate electrode 33b. To form.
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.
