Description

主動閘極接觸及其製造方法
本揭露係關於諸如積體電路(IC)等半導體裝置之製造。本揭露尤其適用於透過7奈米(nm)及更先進的技術節點形成IC之主動閘極上方接觸(contacts over active gates;COAG)。
對於記憶體增加、運算能力增強且速度更快之較小的半導體裝置,需求日益增加。半導體裝置持續按比例縮小尺寸而使密度增加。然而,習知的製造技術涉及接觸隔離區上方的閘極電極之一部分,不僅浪費布局空間,還對密度造成不利影響。因此,在閘極之功能性部分上方直接形成接觸來提升裝置密度。
因此,有效率的實現方法需要具有COAG之比例縮小裝置。
本揭露之一態樣是一種具有COAG之比例縮小的半導體裝置,該COAG形成源極/汲極接觸(CA)及閘極接觸(CB)。

  19. 如申請專利範圍第18項所述之方法,其中,該等第一閘極結構及該等第二閘極結構係藉由以下步驟所形成:形成在該基板之該鰭片上方側向分開之第一虛設閘極、及各在該鰭片之該外部分及相鄰於該鰭片之該STI層上方側向分開之第二虛設閘極;形成位在該等第一虛設閘極及該等第二虛設閘極之各側壁上之側壁間隔物;繼該第一RSD及該第二RSD之該形成後,形成位在該基板上方之第二ILD層;將該第二ILD層向下平坦化至該等側壁間隔物;移除該等第一虛設閘極及該等第二虛設閘極;形成介於該等側壁間隔物之間、及沿著該等側壁間隔物之一部分的高k/金屬閘極(HKMG)層;以及形成介於該等側壁間隔物之間、及沿著該等側壁間隔物之第二部分、或沿著該等側壁間隔物之剩餘部分的該HKMG層上方之金屬層。
  20. 如申請專利範圍第18項所述之方法,其中,該等TS結構係藉由以下步驟所形成:分別移除該第一RSD與該第二RSD上方介於該等側壁間隔物之間的該第二ILD層,第一溝槽與第二溝槽從而形成;用鈷(Co)、鎢(W)或釕(Ru)填充該第一溝槽與該第二溝槽;以及將該Co、W或Ru向下平坦化至該等側壁間隔物。
