Abstract

一種鰭式場效應電晶體包括基板、設置在基板上的多個絕緣體、閘極堆疊結構和應變材料。基板包括至少一個半導體鰭片，且半導體鰭片包括分佈在其中的至少一個調制部分。半導體鰭片夾於絕緣體之間。閘極堆疊結構設置在部分半導體鰭片上方和部分絕緣體上方。應變材料覆蓋被閘極堆疊結構所顯露的部分半導體鰭片。此外，鰭式場效應電晶體的製造方法亦被提出。

Description

鰭式場效應電晶體及其製造方法
本發明是有關於一種積體電路元件，且特別是有關於一種鰭式場效應電晶體及其製造方法。
由於半導體元件的尺寸不斷縮小，三維多閘極結構，例如鰭式場效電晶體已被開發，以取代平面互補金屬氧化物半導體(CMOS)元件。鰭式場效電晶體的結構特徵為矽基鰭片片(silicon based fin)從基板的表面垂直延伸，並且閘極會圍繞由鰭片片所形成的導電通道，以對通道進一步提供更好的電氣控制。
在鰭式場效電晶體的製造過程中，鰭片的輪廓對於製程裕度而言非常關鍵。目前的鰭式場效電晶體製程面臨負載效應(loading effect)以及鰭片彎曲議題(fin-bending issue)。
本發明的實施例提供了一種鰭式場效應電晶體，其包括基板、多個絕緣體、閘極堆疊結構以及應變材料。基板包括至少 一個半導體鰭片，且半導體鰭片包括分佈在半導體鰭片中的至少一個調制部分。絕緣體設置在基板上，半導體鰭片夾於絕緣體之間。閘極堆疊結構設置在部分半導體鰭片上方和部分絕緣體上方。應變材料覆蓋被閘極堆疊結構所顯露的部分半導體鰭片。

本發明的實施例描述了鰭式場效應電晶體的示例性製程以及由此製程所製成的鰭式場效應電晶體。在本發明的某些實施例中，鰭式場效應電晶體可以形成在塊狀(bulk)矽基板上。然而，鰭式場效應電晶體亦可以形成在絕緣體上矽（SOI）或絕緣體上鍺（GOI）基板上。另外，根據其他實施例，矽基板可以包括其他導電層或其他導電元件，諸如電晶體、二極體等。然，本實施例不限與此。
圖1是根據一些實施例所繪示出的鰭式場效應電晶體的製造方法的流程圖。請參照圖1，鰭式場效應電晶體的製造方法至少包括步驟S10、步驟S12、步驟S14和步驟S16。首先，在步驟S10中，提供基板，並且在基板上形成至少一個半導體鰭片，其中半導體鰭片包括分佈在其中的至少一個調制部分。之後，在步驟S12中，在基板上形成絕緣體，且半導體鰭片夾於絕緣體之間。在本實施例中，絕緣體例如是淺溝渠隔離（STI）結構。之後，在步驟S14中，在部分半導體鰭片上方和部分絕緣體上方形成閘極堆疊結構；在步驟S16中，在被閘極堆疊結構所顯露的部分半導體鰭片上形成應變材料。如圖1示出的，應變材料的形成是在閘極堆疊結構的形成之後。然而，閘極堆疊結構（步驟S14）和應變材料（步驟S16）的形成順序不限於此。
圖2A是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3A是沿著圖2A的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S10中且如圖2A和圖3A所示，提供基板200。在一些實施例中，基板200包括多晶矽基板（例如，晶圓）。取決於設計需求，基板200可以包括各個摻雜區（例如，p型基板或n型基板）。在一些實施例中，摻雜區可以摻雜有p型或n型摻質。例如，摻雜區可摻雜有諸如硼或BF2 的p型摻質，諸如磷或砷的n型摻質和/或前述摻質的組合。摻雜區可配置為用於n型鰭式場效應電晶體，或者配置為用於P型鰭式場效應電晶體。在一些其他實施例中，基板200也可以由其他合適的元素半導體材料，諸如鑽石或鍺；合適的化合物半導體，諸如砷化鎵、碳化矽、砷化銦或磷化銦；或合適的合金半導體，諸如碳化矽鍺、磷砷化鎵或磷化鎵銦製成。
如圖2A和圖3A所示，基板200包括分佈在其中的兩種調制材料M1和調制材料M2，其中調制材料M1和M2例如是藉由離子佈植所形成的佈植區域或是藉由原子層沉積（ALD）形成的半導體層。在一些實施例中，調制材料M1和調制材料M2的材料包括氧化矽鍺（SiGeOx ，0＜x）、矽鍺（SiGe）、氧化矽（SiOx ，0＜x）、磷化矽（SiP）、磷酸矽（SiPOx ，0＜x＜1）或前述材料的組合。調制材料M1的厚度例如是介於約1nm至約50nm之間，而調制材料M2的厚度例如是介於約1nm至約50nm之間。在一些實施例中，藉由適當地控制摻質佈植劑量和摻質佈植深度，可以藉由離子佈植在基板200的不同位置而形成調制材料M1、M2。在一些其他實施例中，位於調制材料M1和M2之間的磊晶層（例如，矽磊晶層）可以藉由磊晶製程形成。
在一些實施例中，在基板200上順序地形成墊層202a和罩幕層202b。墊層202a可以是藉由熱氧化製程所形成的氧化矽薄膜。墊層202a可以作為在基板200和罩幕層202b之間的黏著層。墊層202a可以作為用於蝕刻罩幕層202b的蝕刻終止層。在至少一個實施例中，罩幕層202b例如是藉由低壓化學氣相沉積（LPCVD）或電漿增強化學氣相沉積（PECVD）所形成的氮化矽。罩幕層202b可以在隨後的微影製程期間用作硬罩幕。具有預定圖案的圖案化光阻層204形成在罩幕層202b上。
圖2B是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3B是沿著圖2B的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S10中並且如圖2A至圖2B和圖3A至圖3B所示，隨後蝕刻未被圖案化光阻層204所覆蓋的罩幕層202b和墊層202a，以形成圖案化的罩幕層202b’和圖案化的墊層202a’以便暴露出下面的基板200。藉由使用圖案化的罩幕層202b’、圖案化的墊層202a’和圖案化光阻層204作為罩幕，基板200的部分會被暴露並且蝕刻以形成溝渠206和半導體鰭片208。半導體鰭片208被圖案化的罩幕層202b’、圖案化的罩幕層202a’和圖案化光阻層204所覆蓋。兩相鄰的溝渠206之間以間距S分隔，且兩相鄰溝渠206之間的間距S可以小於約30nm。換句話說，兩相鄰的溝渠206可藉由對應的半導體鰭片208分隔開。
半導體鰭片208的高度和溝渠206的深度在從約5nm至約500nm的範圍內。在形成溝渠206半導體鰭片208之後，然後移除圖案化光阻層204。在一個實施例中，可以執行清洗製程以移除半導體基板200a和半導體鰭片208上的原生氧化物。可以使用稀釋的氫氟（DHF）酸或其他合適的清洗溶液實施清洗製程。
在進行上述的鰭片蝕刻製程之後，包括有兩個調制部分MP1和調制部分MP2的半導體鰭片208會形成在基板200a上方。調制部分MP1和調制部分MP2的材料和厚度與調制材料M1和調制部分M2的材料和厚度實質上相同。然而，調制部分MP1和MP2的數量不限於此。舉例而言，每個半導體鰭片208均可以具有一個或多於兩個調制部分。此外，調制部分MP1和基板200a之間的最小距離例如是介於500nm至1000nm之間，而調制部分MP2和基板200a之間的最小距離例如是介於5nm至500nm之間。前述的調制部分MP1和MP2的分佈位置不限於此。本領域技術人員可以根據設計需求而更動半導體鰭片208中調制部分的數量、厚度和位置。
調制部分MP1和MP2可以調制或穩定半導體鰭片208的特性。舉例而言，調制部分MP1和MP2有助於控制鰭片的高度、應力、電特性等。據此，具備調制部分MP1和MP2的半導體鰭片208可以改進晶圓分析和測試（WAT）結果。
如圖2B和圖3B所示，半導體鰭片208包括至少一個主動鰭片208A和設置在主動鰭片208A的兩相對側的一對擬鰭片208D。換句話說，其中一個擬鰭片208D設置在主動鰭片208A的一側，而另一個擬鰭片208D則設置在主動鰭片208A的另一側。在一些實施例中，主動鰭片208A的高度和擬鰭片208D的高度實質上相同。例如，主動鰭片208A和擬鰭片208D的高度例如是介於約10埃至約1000埃之間。擬鰭片208D能夠保護主動鰭片208A不受由隨後的沉積製程而導致的鰭片彎曲。此外，擬鰭片208D能夠阻止主動鰭片208A不受在鰭片蝕刻製程期間的負載效應的嚴重影響。
圖2C是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3C是沿著圖2C的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S12中以及如圖2B至圖2C和圖3B至圖3C所示，在基板200a上方形成絕緣材料210以覆蓋半導體鰭片208並填充溝渠206。除了半導體鰭片208之外，絕緣材料210還覆蓋圖案化的墊層202a’和圖案化的罩幕層202b’。絕緣材料210可以包括氧化矽、氮化矽、氮氧化矽、旋塗介電材料或低介電常數介電材料。可以藉由高密度電漿化學氣相沉機（HDP-CVD）、次大氣壓化學氣相沉機（SACVD）或藉由旋塗等形成絕緣材料210。
圖2D是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3D是沿著圖2D的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S12中以及如圖2C至2D和圖3C至圖3D所示，例如藉由化學機械研磨製程以移除絕緣材料210、圖案化的罩幕層202b’和圖案化的墊層202a’直到暴露半導體鰭片208。如圖2D和圖3D所示，在研磨絕緣材料210之後，研磨的絕緣材料210的頂部表面與半導體鰭片的頂部表面實質上共面。
圖2E是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3E是沿著圖2E的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S12中以及如圖2D至圖2E和圖3D至圖3E所示，藉由蝕刻製程部分地移除填充在溝渠206中已被研磨的絕緣材料210以使得絕緣體210a形成在基板200a上面，並且每個絕緣體210a位於兩個鄰近的半導體鰭片208之間。在一個實施例中，蝕刻製程可以是採用氫氟酸（HF）的濕蝕刻製程或乾蝕刻製程。絕緣體210a的頂部表面T1低於半導體鰭片208的頂部表面T2。半導體鰭片208從絕緣體210a的頂部表面T1突出。半導體鰭片208的頂部表面T2和絕緣體210a的頂部表面T1之間的高度差是H，且此高度差H介於約15nm至約50nm的範圍內。
如圖2E和圖3E所示，半導體鰭片208中的調制部分MP2會被暴露，且調制部分MP2位於絕緣體210a的頂面T1和半導體鰭片208的頂面T2之間。半導體鰭片208中的調制部分MP1則被絕緣體210a所包覆。
圖2F是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3F是沿著圖2F的剖面線I-I’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S14中以及如圖2E至圖2F和圖2F至圖3F所示，在部分半導體鰭片208和部分絕緣體210a上方形成閘極堆疊結構212。在一個實施例中，閘極堆疊結構212的延伸方向D1例如垂直於半導體鰭片208的延伸方向D2，以便覆蓋半導體鰭片208的中間部分M（在圖3F中所示）。上述中間部分M可以作為三閘極(tri-gate)鰭式場效應電晶體的通道。閘極堆疊結構212包括閘極介電層212a和設置在閘極介電層212a上方的閘極層212b。閘極介電層212b設置在半導體鰭片208的部分上方以及絕緣體210a的部分上方。
形成閘極介電層212a以覆蓋半導體鰭片208的中間部分M。在一些實施例中，閘極介電層212a可以包括氧化矽、氮化矽、氮氧化矽或高介電係數電介材料。高介電常數電介材料包括金屬氧化物。用於高介電常數電介材料的金屬氧化物的實例包括Li、Be、Mg、Ca、Sr、Sc、Y、Zr、Hf、Al、La、Ce、Pr、Nd、Sm、Eu、Gd、Tb、Dy、Ho、Er、Tm、Yb、Lu的氧化物和/或前述材料的混合物。在一個實施例中，閘極介電層212a是厚度介於約10至30埃的高介電係數介電層。可以使用合適的製程來形成閘極介電層212a，諸如原子層沉積（ALD）、化學氣相沉積（CVD）、物理氣相沉積（PVD）、熱氧化、紫外線臭氧氧化或前述製程的組合。閘極介電層212a還可以包括介面層（未示出）以減小閘極介電層212a和半導體鰭片208之間的損壞。前述的介面層可以包括氧化矽。
然後，在閘極介電層212a上形成閘極層212b。在一些實施例中，閘極層212b可以包括單層或多層結構。在一些實施例中，閘極層212b可以包括多晶矽或金屬，諸如Al、Cu、W、Ti、Ta、TiN、TiAl、TiAlN、TaN、NiSi、CoSi，具有與基板材料相容的功函數的其他導電材料，或者前述材料的組合。在一些實施例中，閘極電極層212b包括包含矽的材料，諸如多晶矽、非晶矽或前述材料的組合，並且閘極電極層212b是在應變材料214的形成之前形成。在其他實施例中，閘極電極層212b是擬閘極(dummy gate)，且在形成應變材料214之後，擬閘極會被金屬閘極（或稱作“替代閘極）所替代。在其他實施例中，閘極介電層212b包括厚度介於約30nm至約60nm之間。可以使用合適的製程，諸如ALD、CVD、PVD、電鍍或前述製程的組合，來形成閘極層212b。
此外，閘極堆疊結構212還可以包括設置在閘極介電層212a和閘極介電層212b的側壁上的一對間隙物212c。此對間隙物212c還可以覆蓋半導體鰭片208的部分。間隙物212c由介電材料（諸如氮化矽或SiCON）形成。間隙物212c可包括單層或多層結構。半導體鰭片208的未被閘極堆疊結構212覆蓋的部分此後稱為暴露部分E。
圖2G是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3G是沿著圖2G的剖面線II-II’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S16中以及如圖2F至圖2G和圖3F至圖3G所示，移除並且使半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E凹陷而形成凹陷部分R。舉例而言，可藉由等向性蝕刻、非等向性蝕刻或前述製程的組合來移除暴露部分E。在一些實施例中，半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E會凹陷至絕緣體210a的頂部表面T1以下。凹陷部分R的深度D小於絕緣體210a的厚度TH。換句話說，半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E不會被完全移除。如圖2G和圖3G中所示，當使半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E凹陷時，半導體鰭片208被閘極堆疊結構212覆蓋的部分不會移除。半導體鰭片208被閘極堆疊結構212所覆蓋的部分會在閘極堆疊結構212的側壁處暴露出來。
當半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E被移除以使半導體鰭片208的暴露部分E凹陷以形成凹陷部分R時，未被閘極堆疊結構212所覆蓋的調制部分MP1（如圖2F和圖2G所示）可以被用以作為蝕刻終止層，以良好地控制凹陷部分R的輪廓。在上述的鰭片凹陷製程期間，未被閘極堆疊結構212所覆蓋的調制部分MP1亦可被完全地移除。在其他實施例中，上述鰭片凹陷製程可以停止在調制部分MP1處，並且使未被閘極堆疊結構212所覆蓋的調制部分MP1被保留下來。由於調制部分MP1有助於控制凹陷部分R的輪廓，因此調制部分MP1也可以良好地控制後續的應變材料的磊晶成長。承上述，調制部分MP1放大了後續磊晶製程的製程裕度。
圖2H是鰭式場效應電晶體在製造過程的各個階段的一個階段的鰭式場效應電晶體的立體圖，以及圖3H是沿著圖2H的剖面線II-II’的鰭式場效應電晶體的剖面示意圖。在圖1的步驟S16中以及如圖2G至圖2H和圖3G至圖3H所示，應變材料214是選擇性地成長在半導體鰭片208的凹陷部分R上方，並且延伸超過絕緣體210a的頂部表面T1以對半導體鰭片208施加應變(strain)或應力(stress)。
如圖2H和圖3H所示，應變材料214包括設置在閘極堆疊結構212一側的源極以及設置在閘極堆疊結構212另一側的汲極。源極覆蓋半導體鰭片208的一端，且汲極覆蓋半導體鰭片208的另一端。在此情況下，擬鰭片208D可以藉由位於其上的應變材料214接地。
在一些實施例中，源極和汲極可以僅覆蓋主動鰭片208A被閘極堆疊結構212所顯露的一端（即，第一端和第二端），並且擬鰭片208D未被應變材料214所覆蓋。在此情況下，擬鰭片208D是電性浮置。由於應變材料214的晶格常數不同於基板200a，因此半導體鰭片208被閘極堆疊結構212覆蓋的部分會被施加應變或應力以增強鰭式場效應電晶體的載流子遷移率和性能(performance)。在一個實施例中，應變材料214，諸如碳化矽（SiC），是由低壓化學氣相沉積(LPCVD)製程磊晶成長以形成n型鰭式場效應電晶體的源極和汲極。在另一個實施例中，應變材料214，諸如碳化矽（SiC），由低壓化學氣相沉積(LPCVD)製程磊晶成長以形成p型鰭式場效應電晶體的源極和汲極。
在本發明一實施例的鰭式場效應電晶體中，當施加驅動電壓至閘極堆疊結構212時，主動鰭片208A會包括被閘極堆疊結構212所覆蓋的通道，而擬鰭片208D是電性浮置或接地。換句話說，雖然閘極堆疊結構212和擬鰭片208D會部分地重疊，但是擬鰭片208D不會作為電晶體的通道。
在鰭式場效應電晶體的製造過程中，擬鰭片208D會面臨鰭片彎曲的問題（即，化學氣相沉積應力效應），而主動鰭片208A則不會被鰭片彎曲問題嚴重地影響到。此外，由於擬鰭片208D的形成，主動鰭片208A不會被負載效應和鰭片彎曲效應嚴重地影響到。擬鰭片208D可以增大製程裕度並且為應變材料214（應變源極/汲極）提供更好的臨界尺寸(critical dimension loading)。因此，包括有擬鰭片208D的鰭式場效應電晶體具有更好的晶圓分析和測試（WAT）結果、更好的可靠性表現和更好的良率表現。
參考圖2A和圖3A，其所繪示的半導體鰭片208包括至少一個主動鰭片208A和一對擬鰭片208D。然而，主動鰭片208A和擬鰭片208D的數量不限制此。此外，擬鰭片208D的高度也可以被更改。以下將搭配圖4至圖8針對更動後的實施例進行描述。
圖4根據一些實施例繪示出半導體鰭片的剖面示意圖。走參考圖4，半導體鰭片208包括一組主動鰭片208A（例如，兩個主動鰭片）和兩個擬鰭片208D，其中一個擬鰭片208D設置在此組主動鰭片208A的一側，而另外一個擬鰭片208D設置在此組主動鰭片208A的另一側。在一些其他實施例中，主動鰭片208A的數量可以是多於兩個。
圖5根據一些實施例繪示出半導體鰭片的剖面示意圖。請參考圖5，半導體鰭片208包括一組主動鰭片208A（例如，兩個主動鰭片）和四個擬鰭片208D，其中兩個第一擬鰭片208D設置在此組主動鰭片208A的一側，而另外兩個第二擬鰭片208D則設置在此組主動鰭片208A的另一側。在一些其他實施例中，主動鰭片208A的數量可以是多於兩個，而擬鰭片208D的數量可以是三個或多於四個。此組主動鰭片208A可以作為單一個鰭式場效應電晶體的通道或多個鰭式場效應電晶體的通道。
圖6根據一些實施例繪示出半導體鰭片的剖面示意圖。請參考圖6，半導體鰭片208包括一個主動鰭片208A和設置在主動鰭片208A的兩相對側的兩個擬鰭片208D。主動鰭片208的高度H1大於擬鰭片208D的高度H2。
圖7根據一些實施例繪示出半導體鰭片的剖面示意圖。請參考圖7，半導體鰭片208包括兩個主動鰭片208A和設置在主動鰭片208A兩相對側的四個擬鰭片208D，且主動鰭片208的高度H1大於擬鰭片208D的高度H2。在一些其他的實施例中，主動鰭片208A的數量可以是多於兩個，而擬鰭片208D的數量可以是三個或多於四個。
在一些其他實施例中，如在圖6和圖7中所示，擬鰭片208D的高度H2小於絕緣體210a的厚度TH。因此，擬鰭片208D會埋在絕緣體210a的部分中。高度較小的擬鰭片208D可藉由鰭片切割製程(fin-cut process)來形成。鰭片切割製程可以在形成絕緣體210a之前進行，以使得擬鰭片208D的頂部部分可以被移除進而降低擬鰭片208D的高度。前述的鰭片切割製程例如是蝕刻製程。較短的擬鰭片208D所面臨的鰭片彎曲問題（即，化學氣相沉積應力效應）可以顯著地被減少。
圖8根據一些實施例繪示出半導體鰭片的剖面示意圖。請參考圖8，與圖4至圖7所繪示的實施例不同，圖8中所繪示的半導體鰭片208包括三個主動鰭片208A，並且半導體基板200a上未形成有擬鰭片。前述的主動鰭片208A的數量可以根據實際設計需求而更動。
根據本發明的一些實施例，鰭式場效應電晶體包括基板、設置在基板上的多個絕緣體、閘極堆疊結構和應變材料。基板包括至少一個半導體鰭片，且半導體鰭片包括分佈在其中的至少一個調制部分。半導體鰭片夾於絕緣體之間。閘極堆疊結構設置在部分半導體鰭片上方和部分絕緣體上方。應變材料覆蓋被閘極堆疊結構所顯露的部分半導體鰭片。
在上述鰭式場效應電晶體中，調制部分包括半導體層，且半導體層的材料例如為氧化矽鍺（SiGeOx）、矽鍺（SiGe）、氧化矽（SiOx）、磷化矽（SiP）、磷酸矽（SiPOx）或前述材料的組合。
在上述鰭式場效應電晶體中，調制部分包括佈植區域，且佈植區域的材料例如為氧化矽鍺（SiGeOx）、矽鍺（SiGe）、氧化矽（SiOx）、磷化矽（SiP）、磷酸矽（SiPOx）或前述材料的組合。
在上述鰭式場效應電晶體中，調制部分包括第一調制部分以及第二調制部分，且第一調制部分和第二調制部分分佈在半導體鰭片中的不同位置。
在上述鰭式場效應電晶體中，應變材料包括源極和汲極，源極覆蓋主動鰭片的第一端，汲極覆蓋主動鰭片的第二端，而第一端和第二端被閘極堆疊結構所顯露，且源極和汲極分別位於閘極堆疊結構的兩相對側。
