- the method of the present invention is intended to reduce variations in semiconductor devices, particularly variations in gate lengths of transistors, and determines processing conditions in consideration of gate dimensional variations or impurity implantation variations to offset these variations.
- the method is roughly divided into the following three methods.
- the first method is to use the non-uniformity of the plasma to adjust the in-plane distribution of the plasma so as to offset the variation in dimensional accuracy, and to adjust the effective channel length to be equal. It is.
- the second is a method of electrically activating the pre-annealing state in which the resulting non-uniform impurity implantation has been performed under different annealing conditions for each part of the substrate.
- the first method is, in short, a force for adjusting the uniformity of the plasma doping or a matching of the two plasmas so as to offset the in-plane distribution of the plasma for etching the gate electrode. .
- the second method is to grasp the in-plane variation related to the performance of the transistor immediately before the completed annealing, and obtain the surface obtained when assuming that this substrate is ideally in-plane uniform. In order to offset the result of internal variation, less power energy is applied to the portion of the substrate where the gate length is effectively increased, and relatively large energy is applied to the portion of the substrate where the gate length is effectively reduced. And conduct anneal.
- the third method is to adjust the dry etching condition or the doping condition so as to offset the in-plane non-uniformity in the annealing step.
- an annealing technology of a type that irradiates the entire surface for example, a group of technologies called lamp annealing, spike annealing, flash lamp annealing, etc., irradiates the entire substrate with light to maintain high productivity while maintaining high productivity.
- the light source also has dimensional restrictions, and naturally causes non-uniformity in the surface of the substrate to be irradiated. To eliminate non-uniformity caused by this light source Next, dry etching and doping processes are performed by setting conditions so as to offset the non-uniformity of the light source.
- the silicon substrate is disk-shaped ( ⁇ Eno) and has a diameter of 200 mm or 300 mm. Since the plasma process is performed on this wafer, it generally has a two-dimensional distribution. For simplicity, a one-dimensional distribution will be described.
- the pattern of the gate electrode is formed by dry-etching a material such as polycrystalline silicon or a metal, and the size thereof varies depending on the in-plane uniformity of the dry etching.
- FIG. 1A shows the distribution of the dimension (gate length) 170 shown in the cross section of FIG. 5 in the wafer surface.
- FIG. 1 (a) shows a distribution in which the gate length is longer near the periphery of the wafer and the gate length is relatively short near the center.
- a mask is formed by a lithography process, if necessary, after an assembling (mask removal) by plasma etching, a cleaning process in a liquid phase, and then a doping process.
- a relatively large amount of doping is applied to a portion with a long gate length, and a relatively small amount of doping is applied to a portion with a short gate length.
- the finished effective gate length becomes uniform, and the distribution of transistor characteristics becomes uniform.
- plasma doping using plasma is performed at that time.
- the plasma always has non-uniformity (distribution).

I have.
- Laser beams have the same wavelength, and have the advantage of irradiating the substrate with light of the optimal wavelength. However, it is difficult to irradiate laser light over a large area at the same time. In general, irradiation is performed by dividing into small areas.

- the laser intensity is changed by 5% between the central part of the wafer where the longest effective gate length exists and the peripheral part of the wafer where the shortest effective gate length exists. Irradiated. For example, lOOOOmjZcm- 2 at the center and 950 at the periphery.
- the light intensity is too strong due to the design of the light source to irradiate each chip, so that the light was shaped into a 5 cm square and irradiated, assuming approximately every 25 chips.
- the adjustment is made while grasping the intensity unit of flash lamp annealing according to the laser intensity distribution. For example, the scan speed of the flash lamp is determined so as to offset the variation in the intensity distribution of the doping plasma. As a result, the in-substrate variation in the effective gate length, which was 1% before annealing, was reduced to about 0.5%.
- the irradiation time may be adjusted while the intensity of the laser or the lamp is adjusted to be constant.
- the power cost for dividing the irradiation area of the flash lamp to adjust the annealing increases.
- the non-uniformity of the flash lamp is known in advance.
- the measurement is performed by measuring the oxidation speed as described below.
- an oxidizing atmosphere is introduced into a device for performing flash lamp annealing, and the surface of the silicon substrate is oxidized at a constant temperature for a constant time.
- the distribution of the amount of light in the wafer surface can be known. Also, by measuring the planar distribution of the silicon oxide film, the light intensity distribution of the lamp can be detected.
- FIG. 3 shows a one-dimensional representation of the non-uniformity of the flash lamp annealing apparatus used in the present embodiment as in the second embodiment.
- the light intensity is relatively high in the periphery of the wafer and relatively low in the center.
- Eye variation was about 2% over the entire surface. Techniques for correcting this are dry etching and plasma doping, and conditions are set so as to form a distribution opposite to this variation so that the variation can be offset.
- a distribution of 3% variation was formed by dry etching. As shown in FIG. 1 (a), the gate length is relatively short in the central portion of the wafer and the peripheral portion is relatively long. Plasma doping was applied to this to reduce the effective gate length variation to about 1.2%. By irradiating the substrate with a flash lamp having the above-mentioned intensity distribution of 2%, the variation in the effective gate length is reduced, and finally, the intensity distribution of the transistor characteristics is reduced to 0.7% or less. We were able to.
- a method for compensating for variations in characteristics due to variations in effective gate length by performing channel doping using ion implantation will be described.
- the method of reducing the variation of the effective gate length has been described, such as the doping for forming the source / drain regions, but here, the method of reducing the variation of the effective gate length is described. Instead, the effective gate length itself is not
- the characteristic variation is compensated by channel doping for the purpose.
- reduction of characteristic variation by threshold voltage adjustment including doping for threshold voltage adjustment after gate electrode formation is described.
- a transistor having a relatively long gate length can reduce the drive voltage and improve the switching speed by lowering the threshold.
- a transistor having a relatively short gate length can suppress the leak current by increasing the threshold value.
- ion implantation for source and drain formation is called batch processing, in which several or ten or more wafers are mechanically rotated at high speed and the whole is irradiated with an ion beam. , Uniformity was secured.
- the processing will be performed one by one for uniformity.
- adjustment is performed for each wafer.
- FIG. 1 (a) when the distribution of the gate length is similar to that of the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. A small amount and a large amount of doping should be applied to the peripheral portion.
- the first is to increase the speed of scanning the central part and reduce the speed of scanning the peripheral part.
- the second is a method in which the beam current value is reduced by / J when scanning the central portion, and the beam current value is increased when scanning the peripheral portion.
- the beam current for this purpose can be measured using a beam current measuring device provided with a magnetic shield using a superconductor (Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-71028).
- the beam current measuring device is characterized by comprising a magnetic field sensor and a magnetic shielding part made of a superconductor having a gap provided so as to magnetically shield the space where the ion beam flows. It is.
- this device transmits a detection coil arranged in the path of the beam to be measured, a magnetic field sensor SQUID that detects a magnetic field corresponding to the beam current, and a magnetic flux detected by the detection coil to a measurement unit.
- a measuring unit having a superconducting element responsive to the transmitted magnetic flux, a feedback coil for flowing a feedback current so as to cancel a change in magnetic flux penetrating the superconducting element, a SQUID input coil, and a SQUID.
- the SQUID is configured to be guided to an output terminal via a preamplifier and an integrator and to be returned to a feedback coil via a feedback resistor.
- a coil in which a superconducting wire is wound around a soft magnetic core is used as the detection coil, and a magnetic field generated by the beam current is collected by the soft magnetic core, and the superconducting current is applied to the coil. Is induced.
- the superconducting current induced in this coil is transmitted to the coil placed adjacent to SQUID.
- the amount of magnetic flux passing through the SQUID will change as the superconducting current flowing through this coil changes in response to the change in beam current.
- the mechanism is such that the feedback current flows through the feedback coil so that the amount of magnetic flux passing through the SQUID does not change and the change is canceled.
- This feedback current is proportional to the change in the beam current value, and the amount of change in the beam current value can be detected with high accuracy by measuring the feedback current.
- the output current is measured using this measuring method, and highly accurate ion implantation can be performed using the adjusted beam current having the desired output current value.
- the gate length is effectively adjusted by adjusting the threshold by ion implantation for threshold adjustment performed before forming the gate electrode.
- the impurity concentration of the channel is adjusted so that the threshold becomes higher in the central part and the threshold becomes lower in the peripheral part.
- the same threshold adjustment can be applied to the control of so-called pocket injection (or halo injection) that limits the expansion of the source drain after the formation of the gate electrode.
- pocket injection or halo injection
- ⁇ variation of transistors in an aerial is achieved. / 0 could be controlled.
- TFTs thin film transistors
