以下,基於圖式對實施形態進行詳細說明。另,於用以說明實施形態之全部圖中,對具有同一功能之構件標註同一符號,並省略其重複之說明。又,於以下之實施形態中,除特別必要時以外,原則上不重複同一或同樣之部分之說明。
另,於實施形態所使用之圖式中,亦有為了容易觀察圖式而省略陰影線之情形。
(實施形態1) 圖1顯示本實施形態之半導體裝置即n型MISFET1Tr及p型MISFET2Tr之剖面構造。
本實施形態之半導體裝置具備:區域An,其形成n型MISFET1Tr;區域TAn,其為用於對區域An之井區域PW供電之區域;區域Ap,其形成p型MISFET2Tr;及區域TAp,其為用於對區域Ap之井區域NW供電之區域。
區域An與區域TAn係藉由形成於半導體基板SB之元件分離部STI區劃。井區域PW形成為較元件分離部STI更深,跨越區域An與區域TAn形成。區域Ap與區域TAp係藉由元件分離部STI區劃。井區域NW形成為較元件分離部STI更深,跨越區域Ap與區域TAp形成。
於半導體基板SB上形成有絕緣層BX,於絕緣層BX上形成有半導體層SM。絕緣層BX之厚度係10~20 nm左右,半導體層SM之厚度係10~20 nm左右。又,於供電區域即區域TAn及區域TAp中,去除絕緣層BX及半導體層SM。因此,可經由磊晶層EP,對井區域PW及井區域NW個別地施加電壓。
首先,說明區域An之MISFET1Tr之構造。
於區域An中,於半導體基板SB形成有n型井區域DNW,於井區域DNW內形成有p型井區域PW。藉由該井區域DNW,井區域PW與半導體基板SB電性分離。於與絕緣層BX相接之井區域PW之表面,形成有具有較井區域PW更高之雜質濃度之p型地平面區域(雜質區域)GP1。地平面區域GP1作為MISFET1Tr之背閘極發揮功能,MISFET1Tr之閥值電壓係藉由地平面區域GP1之內部電位調整。
井區域PW及地平面區域GP1係導入硼(B)等p型雜質之區域。又,井區域PW之雜質濃度係5×1017 ~5×1018 /cm3 左右,地平面區域GP1之雜質濃度係1×1018 ~2×1019 /cm3 左右。
於區域An之半導體層SM上,介隔閘極絕緣膜GF1,形成有閘極電極G1。於此處,閘極絕緣膜GF1包含將氧化矽膜作為主體之絕緣膜IF1、與形成於絕緣膜IF1上之高介電常數膜HK1。高介電常數膜HK1為介電常數高於氧化矽膜之膜,且為用於調整MISFET1Tr之閥值之膜,至少包含第1金屬、與不同於第1金屬之第2金屬。於本實施形態中,第1金屬係例如鉿(Hf),第2金屬係例如鋁(Al),高介電常數膜HK1係包含Hf、Al及O之膜。
具體而言,本實施形態之高介電常數膜HK1包含Hfx Al(1-x) ON(1>X≧0.75)或Hfx Al(1-x) O(1>X≧0.75)。即,於高介電常數膜HK1中,第1金屬之原子數(Hf)相對於第1金屬及第2金屬之總原子數(Hf+Al)之比例係75%以上,且不滿100%。
於閘極電極G1之側面,介隔偏移間隔物OS,形成有側壁間隔物SW。於偏移間隔物OS下及側壁間隔物SW下之半導體層SM,形成有低濃度之n型雜質區域即延伸區域EX1。又,於半導體層SM上之一部分形成有磊晶層EP。於該磊晶層EP,形成有較延伸區域EX1更高濃度之n型雜質區域即擴散區域D1。該等延伸區域EX1及擴散區域D1構成MISFET1Tr之源極區域或汲極區域。
於區域TAn,與區域An同樣,形成有井區域DNW及井區域PW。另,雖於井區域PW之表面形成有地平面區域GP1,但亦可不形成區域TAn之地平面區域GP1。如上所述,由於區域TAn中去除絕緣層BX及半導體層SM,故以與包含地平面區域GP1之井區域PW直接相接之方式,形成有磊晶層EP。於磊晶層EP,形成有p型雜質區域即擴散區域D2。因此,供給至區域TAn之插塞PG之電壓係藉由磊晶層EP及井區域PW,而供給至區域An之地平面區域GP1。
接著,說明區域Ap之MISFET2Tr之構造。
於區域Ap中,於半導體基板SB形成有n型井區域NW。於與絕緣層BX相接之井區域NW之表面,形成有具有較井區域NW更高之雜質濃度之n型地平面區域GP2。地平面區域GP2作為MISFET2Tr之背閘極發揮功能,MISFET2Tr之閥值電壓係藉由地平面區域GP2之內部電位調整。
又,井區域NW及地平面區域GP2為導入砷(As)等n型雜質之區域。又,井區域NW之雜質濃度係5×1017 ~5×1018 /cm3 左右,地平面區域GP2之雜質濃度係1×1018 ~2×1019 /cm3 左右。
於區域Ap之半導體層SM上,介隔閘極絕緣膜GF2,形成有閘極電極G2。於此處,閘極絕緣膜GF2具有包含氧化矽膜等之絕緣膜IF1、與形成於絕緣膜IF1上之高介電常數膜HK1。高介電常數膜HK1為介電常數高於氧化矽膜之膜,且為用於調整MISFET2Tr之閥值之膜,包含上述第1金屬與第2金屬。即,於本實施形態中,閘極絕緣膜GF1及閘極絕緣膜GF2由相同之膜構成。
於閘極電極G2之側面,介隔偏移間隔物OS,形成有側壁間隔物SW。於偏移間隔物OS下及側壁間隔物SW下之半導體層SM,形成有低濃度之p型雜質區域即延伸區域EX2。又,於半導體層SM上之一部分形成有磊晶層EP。於該磊晶層EP,形成有較延伸區域EX2更高濃度之p型雜質區域即擴散區域D2。該等延伸區域EX2及擴散區域D2構成MISFET2Tr之源極區域或汲極區域。
於區域TAp,與區域Ap同樣,形成有井區域NW。另,雖於井區域NW之表面形成有地平面區域GP2,但亦可不形成區域TAp之地平面區域GP2。如上所述,由於區域TAp中去除絕緣層BX及半導體層SM,故以與包含地平面區域GP2之井區域NW直接相接之方式,形成有磊晶層EP。又,於磊晶層EP,形成有n型雜質區域即擴散區域D1。因此,供給至區域TAp之插塞PG之電壓係經由磊晶層EP及井區域NW,供給至區域Ap之地平面區域GP2。
又,於之後說明,形成於區域An之擴散區域D1、與形成於區域TAp之擴散區域D1係由相同步驟形成之n型雜質區域。同樣地,形成於區域Ap之擴散區域D2、與形成於區域TAn之擴散區域D2係由相同步驟形成之p型雜質區域。
於閘極電極G1上、閘極電極G2上及磊晶層EP上,為了降低與插塞PG之接觸電阻,例如形成有包含矽化鎳(NiSi)或矽化鈷(CoSi2 )之矽化物層SI。
於區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之主表面上,以覆蓋MISFET1Tr及MISFET2Tr之方式形成有層間絕緣膜IL1。作為層間絕緣膜IL1,可使用氧化矽膜之單體膜、或氮化矽膜與於其上形成較厚之氧化矽膜之積層膜等。於層間絕緣膜IL1形成有接觸孔,藉由於接觸孔內埋入以鎢(W)等為主體之導電性膜,而於層間絕緣膜IL1內形成有複數個插塞PG。各插塞PG係經由矽化物層SI,連接於閘極電極G1、閘極電極G2及磊晶層EP。
於埋入有插塞PG之層間絕緣膜IL1上,形成有層間絕緣膜IL2。於層間絕緣膜IL2形成有配線用之槽,藉由於配線用之槽內埋入例如以銅為主成分之導電性膜,而於層間絕緣膜IL2內形成有與插塞PG連接之配線M1。
<關於本實施形態之半導體裝置之主要特徵> MISFET1Tr及MISFET2Tr係稱為SOTB(Silicon-On-Thin-Buried oxide:薄型埋入式氧化物上覆矽)之完全耗盡型之電晶體,且係閘極長為65 nm以下之電晶體。又,為了抑制雜質之偏差引起之閥值變動等,對成為通道區域之半導體層SM,未進行閥值調整用之離子注入。即,成為通道區域之半導體層SM為未導入n型或p型雜質之真性半導體層。或,即使於半導體層SM內導入p型雜質,該雜質濃度亦為1×1013 /cm3 以下。
此種電晶體係以0.75 V左右之超低電壓驅動,流動於各半導體層SM(通道區域)之電流之控制不僅使用施加於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之電壓而進行,亦使用施加於井區域PW及井區域NW之電壓而進行。即,MISFET1Tr係藉由對閘極電極G1及井區域PW個別地供給電壓而驅動。又,MISFET2Tr係藉由對閘極電極G2及井區域NW個別地供給電壓而驅動。
於本實施形態中,由於成為通道區域之半導體層SM為無摻雜物,故MISFET1Tr之閥值電壓主要藉由地平面區域GP1所包含之雜質之雜質濃度、與高介電常數膜HK1所包含之金屬之總原子數設定。同樣地,MISFET2Tr之閥值電壓主要藉由地平面區域GP2所包含之雜質之雜質濃度、與高介電常數膜HK1所包含之金屬之總原子數設定。
以下,使用圖2說明本申請案發明者進行之關於高介電常數膜HK1所含之金屬之比例之研究結果。
首先,本申請案發明者研究了為供n型MISFET1Tr使用而對高介電常數膜HK1導入鋁(Al),但判定於p型MISFET2Tr中閥值電壓過低。如上所述,閥值電壓雖於地平面區域GP2亦可於某種程度上進行調整,但因地平面區域GP2由雜質區域構成,故不適用於更微細地調整閥值電壓。因此,雖期望藉由高介電常數膜HK1內之金屬進行閥值電壓之微調整,但根據本申請案發明者之研究,可明確知道鋁並非最適於p型MISFET2Tr。
因此,本申請案發明者研究了對高介電常數膜HK1不僅導入鋁,亦導入鉿(Hf)。藉由對高介電常數膜HK1亦導入鉿,可將p型MISFET2Tr之閥值電壓設計為適當值。此時,雖於n型MISFET1Tr中閥值電壓略微下降,但其變化量為適用範圍內。
又,根據本申請案發明者之研究可明確知道,於p型MISFET2Tr中,因高介電常數膜HK1中之鋁,NBTI(Negative Bias Temperature Instability:負偏壓溫度不穩定性)劣化。
圖2係本申請案發明者之實驗資料,藉由高介電常數膜HK1所含之第1金屬(Hf)及第2金屬(Al)之比例,顯示p型MISFET2Tr之NBTI之劣化量。橫軸顯示第1金屬之原子數(Hf)相對於第1金屬與第2金屬之總原子數(Hf+Al)之比例,縱軸係以相對值顯示p型MISFET2Tr之NBTI之劣化量。即,以縱軸之1.0作為基準,大於1.0之值表示NBTI之劣化量較大,MISFET2Tr之可靠性下降,小於1.0之值表示NBTI之劣化量較小,MISFET2Tr之可靠性提高。
如圖2所示,高介電常數膜HK1所含之第1金屬(Hf)之比例越大,高介電常數膜HK1所含之第2金屬(Al)之比例越小,判定NBTI越得到改善。尤其,當第1金屬之原子數(Hf)相對於第1金屬與第2金屬之總原子數(Hf+Al)之比例為75%以上時,便判定NBTI得到改善。
因此,期望將高介電常數膜HK1設為Hfx Al(1-x) ON(1>X≧0.75)、或Hfx Al(1-x) O(1>X≧0.75)。換言之,於高介電常數膜HK1中,期望將第1金屬之原子數(Hf)相對於第1金屬及第2金屬之總原子數(Hf+Al)之比例設為75%以上,且不滿100%。若高介電常數膜HK1為此種構成,便可改善p型MISFET2Tr之NBTI。因此,本實施形態之半導體裝置可將n型MISFET1Tr及p型MISFET2Tr之閥值電壓設計為最適值,且可使p型MISFET2Tr之可靠性提高。
<關於本實施形態之半導體裝置之製造方法> 以下,使用圖3~圖11說明本實施形態之半導體裝置之製造方法。
於圖3,顯示所謂SOI基板,其具有:半導體基板SB,其為支持基板;絕緣層BX,其形成於半導體基板SB上;及半導體層SM,其形成於絕緣層BX之上。
半導體基板SB較佳包含具有1~10 Ωcm左右之電阻率之單晶矽,包含例如p型單晶矽。絕緣層BX包含例如氧化矽,絕緣層BX之厚度係例如10~20 nm左右。半導體層SM較佳包含具有1~10 Ωcm左右之電阻率之單晶矽,半導體層SM之厚度係例如10~20 nm左右。另,半導體層SM係藉由離子注入等未導入n型或p型之雜質之真性半導體層。或,即使於半導體層SM內導入p型雜質,其雜質濃度亦為1×1013 /cm3 以下。
於以下說明準備此種SOI基板之步驟之一例。SOI基板能夠以例如SIMOX(Separation by IMplanted OXygen:植氧分離)法製造。於SIMOX法中,於包含矽(Si)之半導體基板以高能量離子注入氧(O2 ),通過其後之熱處理使矽與氧結合,且於較半導體基板之表面略深之位置形成包含氧化矽之絕緣層BX。於該情形時,殘存於絕緣層BX上之矽之薄膜成半導體層SM,絕緣層BX下之半導體基板成半導體基板SB。又,亦可藉由貼合法形成SOI基板。於貼合法中,例如,於將包含矽之第1半導體基板之表面氧化而形成絕緣層BX後,藉由於該第1半導體基板於高溫下壓著包含矽之第2半導體基板而貼合,其後,將第2半導體基板薄膜化。於該情形時,殘存於絕緣層BX上之第2半導體基板之薄膜成為半導體層SM,絕緣層BX下之第1半導體基板成為半導體基板SB。進而,亦可使用其他方法例如智慧切割製程等,製造SOI基板。
接著,形成貫通半導體層SM及絕緣層BX且到達半導體基板SB之槽,且藉由於槽內埋入絕緣膜而形成元件分離部STI。區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp由元件分離部STI彼此分離。
接著,藉由光微影法及離子注入法,於區域An及區域TAn之半導體基板SB形成n型井區域DNW,於井區域DNW內形成p型井區域PW,於井區域PW內形成p型地平面區域GP1。
接著,藉由光微影法及離子注入法,於區域Ap及區域TAp之半導體基板SB形成n型井區域NW,於井區域NW內形成n型地平面區域GP2。
接著,藉由光微影法及乾蝕刻法,選擇性地去除區域TAn及區域TAp之半導體層SM,使區域TAn及區域TAp之絕緣層BX露出。
接著,如圖4所示,藉由例如熱氧化法,於區域An及區域Ap之半導體層SM上,形成包含例如氧化矽膜之絕緣膜IF1。絕緣膜IF1之膜厚係2~3 nm左右。該絕緣膜IF1於之後成為MISFET1Tr之閘極絕緣膜GF1之一部分及MISFET2Tr之閘極絕緣膜GF2之一部分。
接著,根據需要,亦可對絕緣膜IF1於包含例如氮之環境氛圍中進行電漿處理。藉由該電漿處理,將絕緣膜IF1之表面氮化。即,導入至較絕緣膜IF1之膜厚之一半更靠上部之氮濃度大於導入至較絕緣膜IF1之膜厚之一半更靠下部之氮濃度。換言之,絕緣膜IF1之下部為氧化矽膜,絕緣膜IF1之上部成為氮氧化矽膜。
藉由進行此種電漿處理,可獲得如以下之效果。例如,雖於後續之步驟形成閘極電極G1、G2,但因其後之製造步驟中之熱處理,有閘極電極G1、G2中之雜質擴散至半導體層SM之虞。於此處,藉由進行上述電漿處理,使絕緣膜IF1之表面氮化,可防止導入至例如閘極電極G2之硼(B)等p型雜質自閘極電極G2中向半導體層SM擴散。又,藉由包含氧化矽膜之絕緣膜IF1之表面氮化,可使閘極絕緣膜GF1及閘極絕緣膜GF2之介電常數提高。
於之後說明,於本實施形態中,進行上述電漿處理之情形時,高介電常數膜HK1成為Hfx Al(1-x) ON(1>X≧0.75),未進行上述電漿處理之情形時,高介電常數膜HK1成為Hfx Al(1-x) O(1>X≧0.75)。
接著,如圖5所示,藉由濺鍍法使金屬膜MT1堆積於區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp。藉此,於區域An及區域Ap中,於絕緣膜IF1上形成金屬膜MT1。即,於區域An及區域Ap之各者中,對絕緣膜IF1添加(供給)構成金屬膜MT1之材料。本實施形態之金屬膜MT1係包含第1金屬(Hf)與第2金屬(Al)之膜,其膜厚係3 nm左右。作為金屬膜MT1之形成方法,例如首先於濺鍍裝置內之第1腔室內,使鉿(Hf)堆積。接著,於相同濺鍍裝置內之第2腔室內,使鋁(Al)堆積。使鉿與鋁堆積之順序可為任一者在前。又,第1金屬之原子數(Hf)相對於第1金屬及第2金屬之總原子數(Hf+Al)之比例為75%以上,且不足100%。
接著,對金屬膜MT1實施例如700℃左右之熱處理,且使絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1反應,藉此形成高介電常數膜HK1。於本實施形態中,絕緣膜IF1之表面所包含之氧化矽(SiO2 )、與金屬膜MT1所包含之鉿(Hf)及鋁(Al)反應,作為高介電常數膜HK1形成Hfx Al(1-x) O膜。另,對絕緣膜IF1於氮之環境氛圍中進行電漿處理之情形時,絕緣膜IF1之表面所包含之氮氧化矽(SiON)、與金屬膜MT1所包含之鉿(Hf)及鋁(Al)反應,作為高介電常數膜HK1形成Hfx Al(1-x) ON膜。
又,亦可不個別地進行此種熱處理步驟,而利用附加於後述之其他步驟之熱,使絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1反應。
圖6顯示緊接圖5之製造步驟,且顯示閘極電極G1、閘極電極G2、蓋膜CP、閘極絕緣膜GF1及閘極絕緣膜GF2之形成步驟。
首先,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,藉由例如CVD(Chemical Vapor Deposition:化學氣相沉積)法,作為閘極電極用之導電性膜,堆積例如多晶矽膜。另,於該CVD法中,施加600~700℃左右之熱處理。接著,使用光微影法及離子注入法,對各區域之導電性膜導入雜質。於此處,於區域An及區域TAn之導電性膜導入n型雜質,於區域Ap及區域TAp之導電性膜導入p型雜質。
另,構成各閘極電極之導電性膜不限定於多晶矽膜,亦可為金屬膜、或多晶矽膜與金屬膜之積層膜。
接著,於導電性膜上,藉由例如CVD法,作為閘極電極上之蓋膜用之絕緣膜,堆積例如氮化矽膜。另,於該CVD法中,施加600~700℃左右之熱處理。
於此處,亦可不個別地進行於圖6之前說明之用於使絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1反應之熱處理步驟,而利用附加於圖6等其他步驟之熱。例如,亦可藉由於上述閘極電極用之導電性膜之成膜時、及於上述蓋膜用之絕緣膜之成膜時施加之熱處理,使絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1反應,而形成高介電常數膜HK1。又,絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1之反應亦可進而藉由於後續之步驟,即偏移間隔物OS形成步驟、虛設側壁間隔物DSW形成步驟、磊晶層EP形成步驟、側壁間隔物SW形成步驟、及擴散區域D1、D2形成後之活性化處理中實施之熱處理而進行。即,假設藉由於閘極電極用之導電性膜之成膜時、及蓋膜用之絕緣膜之成膜時施加之熱處理,絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1未完全地反應,仍可藉由於後續之各步驟施加之熱處理,使絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1反應。最終,於圖9所示之矽化物層SI之形成步驟後,絕緣膜IF1與金屬膜MT1之反應結束,作為高介電常數膜HK1形成有Hfx Al(1-x) ON膜或Hfx Al(1-x) ON膜。
接著,使用光微影法及乾蝕刻法,將上述絕緣膜與上述導電性膜圖案化。藉此,如圖6所示,於區域An形成閘極電極G1,於區域Ap形成閘極電極G2。又,於各閘極電極上分別形成蓋膜CP。接著,藉由去除自各閘極電極露出之高介電常數膜HK1(金屬膜MT1)及絕緣膜IF1,而於區域An之閘極電極G1下及區域Ap之閘極電極G2下,殘留高介電常數膜HK1、與絕緣膜IF1。另,於高介電常數膜HK1(金屬膜MT1)之去除步驟中,使用包含硝酸或硫酸之水溶液,於絕緣膜IF1之去除步驟中,使用包含氟酸之水溶液。又,於去除絕緣膜IF1時,亦去除殘留於區域TAn及區域TAp之絕緣層BX。
藉由以上,於區域An之閘極電極G1下,形成包含高介電常數膜HK1及絕緣膜IF1之閘極絕緣膜GF1,於區域Ap之閘極電極G2下,形成包含高介電常數膜HK1及絕緣膜IF1之閘極絕緣膜GF2。
圖7顯示偏移間隔物OS、虛設側壁間隔物DSW及磊晶層EP之形成步驟。
首先,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,藉由例如CVD法,形成包含例如氧化矽膜之絕緣膜。另,於該CVD法中,施加600~700℃左右之熱處理。接著,藉由對該絕緣膜進行各向異性蝕刻,而於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之各者之側面,形成偏移間隔物OS。此時,於區域TAn及區域TAp中,藉由各向異性蝕刻,去除偏移間隔物OS用之絕緣膜,露出半導體基板SB。
接著,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,藉由例如CVD法,形成包含例如氮化矽膜之絕緣膜。另,於該CVD法中,施加600~700℃左右之熱處理。接著,藉由對該絕緣膜進行各向異性蝕刻,而於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之各者之側面,介隔偏移間隔物OS形成虛設側壁間隔物DSW。此時,於區域TAn及區域TAp中,藉由各向異性蝕刻,去除虛設側壁間隔物DSW用之絕緣膜,露出半導體基板SB。
接著,藉由磊晶生長法,於區域An及區域Ap之半導體層SM上、以及區域TAn及區域TAp之半導體基板SB上,形成包含例如單晶矽之磊晶層EP(半導體層EP)。另,於該磊晶生長法中,施加650~750℃左右之熱處理。半導體層EP之膜厚係20 nm~40 nm左右。此時,由於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2以蓋膜CP覆蓋,故於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2上未形成磊晶層EP。
另,磊晶層EP與半導體層SM為相同材料故而一體化,於本實施形態中,為易於理解發明,以箭頭顯示磊晶層EP,以虛線顯示磊晶層EP與半導體層SM之邊界。
圖8顯示虛設側壁間隔物DSW及蓋膜CP之去除步驟、與延伸區域EX1、EX2之形成步驟。
首先,藉由以難以削減偏移間隔物OS之條件進行蝕刻處理,而於區域An及區域Ap中,去除虛設側壁間隔物DSW及蓋膜CP。又,由於虛設側壁間隔物DSW及蓋絕緣膜CP由相同之材料形成,故可同時去除該等。因此,因無需進行掩膜之追加,故可簡化製造步驟。
接著,使用光微影法及離子注入法,於區域An中,於閘極電極G1之兩側之半導體層SM及磊晶層EP形成n型延伸區域(雜質區域)EX1,於區域Ap中,於閘極電極G2之兩側之半導體層SM及磊晶層EP形成p型延伸區域(雜質區域)EX2。延伸區域EX1構成MISFET1Tr之源極區域之一部分或汲極區域之一部分,延伸區域EX2構成MISFET2Tr之源極區域之一部分或汲極區域之一部分。
另,延伸區域EX1亦形成於區域TAp之磊晶層EP之表面,延伸區域EX2形成於區域TAn之磊晶層EP之表面。然而,於區域TAp及區域TAn,亦可不形成延伸區域EX1及延伸區域EX2。
圖9顯示側壁間隔物SW、擴散區域D1、D2、及矽化物層SI之形成步驟。
首先,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,藉由例如CVD法,形成包含例如氮化矽膜之絕緣膜。另,於該CVD法中,施加600~700℃左右之熱處理。接著,藉由對該絕緣膜進行各向異性蝕刻,而於閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之各者之側面,介隔偏移間隔物OS形成側壁間隔物SW。
接著,使用光微影法及離子注入法,於區域An之磊晶層EP及半導體層SM、以及區域TAp之磊晶層EP,形成n型擴散區域(雜質區域)D1,於區域Ap之磊晶層EP及半導體層SM、以及區域TAn之磊晶層EP,形成p型擴散區域(雜質區域)D2。
於區域An中,n型擴散區域D1具有較延伸區域EX1更高之雜質濃度,且與延伸區域EX1連接,構成MISFET1Tr之源極區域之一部分或汲極區域之一部分。
於區域Ap中,p型擴散區域D2具有較延伸區域EX2更高之雜質濃度,且與延伸區域EX2連接,構成MISFET2Tr之源極區域之一部分或汲極區域之一部分。
接著,出於使延伸區域EX1、EX2及擴散區域D1、D2所包含之雜質活化之目的,對半導體基板SB實施1050℃左右之熱處理。
接著,藉由自對準矽化物(Salicide:Self Aligned Silicide)技術,於擴散區域D1、擴散區域D2、閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之各者之上表面上,形成低電阻之矽化物層SI。
矽化物層SI具體而言可如下形成。首先,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,形成矽化物層SI形成用之金屬膜。該金屬膜包含例如鈷、鎳或鎳鉑合金。接著,藉由對半導體基板SB實施600~700℃左右之熱處理,而使擴散區域D1、擴散區域D2、閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2與金屬膜反應。藉此,於擴散區域D1、擴散區域D2、閘極電極G1及閘極電極G2之各者之上表面上,形成矽化物層SI。其後,去除未反應之金屬膜。
藉由以上,於區域An形成MISFET1Tr,於區域Ap形成MISFET2Tr。
於圖9之製造步驟後,藉由形成層間絕緣膜IL1、IL2、插塞PG及配線M1,製造圖1所示之半導體裝置。
首先,以覆蓋區域An、區域Ap、區域TAn及區域TAp之方式,形成層間絕緣膜IL1。作為層間絕緣膜IL1,可使用氧化矽膜之單體膜,或氮化矽膜與於其上形成較厚之氧化矽膜之積層膜等。於層間絕緣膜IL1之形成後,根據需要,亦可通過CMP(Chemical Mechanical Polishing:化學機械研磨)法研磨層間絕緣膜IL1之上表面。
接著,藉由光微影法及乾蝕刻法,於層間絕緣膜IL1內形成接觸孔,藉由於接觸孔內埋入以鎢(W)等為主體之導電性膜,而於層間絕緣膜IL1內形成複數個插塞PG。形成於各區域之插塞PG經由矽化物層SI,連接於擴散區域D1、D2。另,閘極電極G1、G2亦連接於插塞PG,但於本實施形態中省略其圖示。
接著,於埋入有插塞PG之層間絕緣膜IL1上形成層間絕緣膜IL2。其後,於層間絕緣膜IL2形成配線用之槽後,藉由於配線用之槽內埋入例如以銅為主成分之導電性膜,而於層間絕緣膜IL2內形成與插塞PG連接之配線M1。該配線M1之構造稱為所謂鑲嵌(Damascene)配線構造。
其後,藉由雙鑲嵌(Dual Damascene)法等,形成第2層以後之配線,此處省略其說明及圖示。又,配線M1及較配線M1上層之配線並不限定於鑲嵌配線構造,亦可將導電性膜圖案化而形成,亦可設為例如鎢配線或鋁配線。
如以上所述,製造本實施形態之半導體裝置。
(實施形態2) 以下,使用圖10~圖12說明實施形態2之半導體裝置及其製造方法。另,於以下之說明中,主要說明與實施形態1之不同點。
首先,於實施形態1中,作為閘極絕緣膜GF1之一部分及閘極絕緣膜GF2之一部分,利用相同之高介電常數膜HK1。與此相對,於實施形態2中,作為閘極絕緣膜GF1之一部分利用高介電常數膜HK2,作為閘極絕緣膜GF2之一部分則利用包含與高介電常數膜HK2不同材料之高介電常數膜HK3。
圖10顯示緊接實施形態1之圖4之製造步驟。於圖4之製造步驟之結束時點,於區域An及區域Ap之半導體層SM上,形成有絕緣膜IF1。又,於絕緣膜IF1之表面,根據需要,於氮之環境氛圍中實施電漿處理。
自該狀態,如圖10所示,以將區域An及區域TAn開口,且覆蓋區域Ap及區域TAp之方式,形成包含例如光阻膜之掩膜圖案PR1。又,掩膜圖案PR1並不限定於光阻膜,亦可為經圖案化之氮化矽膜等絕緣膜。
接著,將掩膜圖案PR1作為掩膜,藉由濺鍍法,使包含例如鋁(Al)之金屬膜MT2堆積於區域An及區域TAn。藉此,於區域An中,於絕緣膜IF1上形成金屬膜MT2。即,對位於區域An內之絕緣膜IF1,添加(供給)構成金屬膜MT2之鋁。另,金屬膜MT2之膜厚係3 nm左右。其後,掩膜圖案PR1係藉由灰化等蝕刻處理去除。
接著,如圖11所示,以將區域Ap及區域TAp開口,且覆蓋區域An及區域TAn之方式,形成包含例如光阻膜之掩膜圖案PR2。又,掩膜圖案PR2並不限定於光阻膜,亦可為經圖案化之氮化矽膜等絕緣膜。
接著,將掩膜圖案PR2作為掩膜,藉由濺鍍法,使包含例如鉿(Hf)之金屬膜MT3,作為與金屬膜MT2不同之金屬膜堆積於區域Ap及區域TAp。藉此,於區域Ap中,於絕緣膜IF1上形成金屬膜MT3。即,對位於區域Ap內之絕緣膜IF1,添加(供給)構成金屬膜MT3之鉿。另,金屬膜MT3之膜厚係3 nm左右。其後,掩膜圖案PR2係藉由灰化等蝕刻處理去除。
另,亦可使圖10及圖11所示之製造步驟之順序相反。即,亦可首先於區域Ap形成金屬膜MT3,其後,於區域An形成金屬膜MT2。
接著,如圖12所示,以與實施形態1相同之方法,形成閘極電極G1、閘極電極G2、蓋膜CP、閘極絕緣膜GF1及閘極絕緣膜GF2。藉此,於區域An之閘極電極G1下,形成包含高介電常數膜HK2及絕緣膜IF1之閘極絕緣膜GF1,於區域Ap之閘極電極G2下,形成包含高介電常數膜HK3及絕緣膜IF1之閘極絕緣膜GF2。
即,與實施形態1同樣,藉由對金屬膜MT2及金屬膜MT3實施熱處理,而於區域An中金屬膜MT2與絕緣膜IF1反應,形成高介電常數膜HK2,於區域Ap中金屬膜MT3與絕緣膜IF1反應,形成高介電常數膜HK3。於實施形態2中,高介電常數膜HK2係AlO2 膜或AlON膜,高介電常數膜HK3係HfO2 膜或HfON膜。
又,與實施形態1同樣,亦可不個別地進行上述熱處理步驟,而利用添加於閘極電極G1、G2之形成步驟及蓋膜CP之形成步驟等其他步驟之熱處理。
以後之製造步驟與實施形態1之圖7以後之說明相同。
如此,於實施形態2中,MISFET1Tr之閘極絕緣膜GF1包含鋁(Al),但不包含鉿(Hf)。又,MISFET2Tr之閘極絕緣膜GF2包含鉿(Hf),但不包含鋁(Al)。因此,實施形態2之半導體裝置與實施形態1之半導體裝置相比,於n型MISFET1Tr中,可防止鉿引起之閥值電壓之降低,於p型MISFET2Tr中,可防止鋁引起之閥值電壓之降低,且可防止鋁引起之NBTI之劣化。
以上,雖對藉由本申請案發明者完成之發明基於其實施形態進行具體說明,但本發明並非限定於上述實施形態者,當然可於不脫離其主旨之範圍內進行各種變更。
