- This usually requires a very steep distribution of the inverted doped well to achieve good results.
- the temperature and time required for such thermal annealing to form atomic diffusion is greater than the need for doping annealing in the channel region. This disadvantageously causes the dopant atoms in the channel region to diffuse too much, thereby damaging the steep doping profile.

- the effect of this can advantageously avoid damaging the distribution of steep doped wells.
- ion implantation to form an inverted doped well in the substrate is usually performed after the gate dielectric is formed, ion implantation may deteriorate the gate dielectric, which may disadvantageously degrade the performance of the device.
- the problem of deterioration of the gate dielectric can be avoided by first performing reverse doping well ion implantation to form a gate dielectric and a metal gate.

本发明通常涉及一种半导体器件的制造方法, 尤其涉及一种避免倒掺 杂阱区对源漏区域引入不当掺杂的半导体器件及其形成方法。 下文的公开提 供了许多不同的实施例或例子用来实现本发明的不同结构。 为了简化本发 明的公开, 下文中对特定例子的部件和设置进行描述。 当然, 它们仅仅为 示例, 并且目的不在于限制本发明。 此外, 本发明可以在不同例子中重复 参考数字和 /或字母。 这种重复是为了简化和清楚的目的, 其本身不指示所 讨论各种实施例和 /或设置之间的关系。 此外, 本发明提供了的各种特定的 工艺和材料的例子, 但是本领域普通技术人员可以意识到其他工艺的可应 用于性和 /或其他材料的使用。 另外, 以下描述的第一特征在第二特征之 "上" 的结构可以包括第一和第二特征形成为直接接触的实施例, 也可以 包括另外的特征形成在第一和第二特征之间的实施例, 这样第一和第二特 征可能不是直接接触。 第一实施例
根据本发明的第一实施例, 参考图 1 , 图 1示出了根据本发明的实施例的 半导体器件的制造方法的流程图。在步骤 101 , 首先提供一个半导体衬底 202 , 参考图 2。 在本实施例中, 衬底 202包括位于晶体结构中的硅衬底(例如晶 片) 。 根据现有技术公知的设计要求 (例如 p型衬底或者 n型衬底) , 衬 底 202可以包括各种掺杂配置。 其他例子的衬底 202还可以包括其他基本
半导体, 例如锗和金刚石。 或者, 衬底 202可以包括化合物半导体, 例如 碳化硅、 砷化镓、 砷化铟或者磷化铟。 此外, 衬底 202可以可选地包括外 延层, 可以被应力改变以增强性能, 以及可以包括绝缘体上硅(SOI )结构。
在步骤 102, 在衬底 202上形成源极区 204、 漏极区 206、 设置在所述 衬底上位于所述源极区 204和所述漏极区 206之间的栅堆叠 30, 在所述栅 堆叠 30的侧壁形成的侧墙 214。 所述栅堆叠 30包括伪栅极介质层 212和伪 栅极 208。
伪栅极介质层 212可以为热氧化层, 包括氧化硅、 氮化硅, 例如二氧 化硅。 伪栅极 208为牺牲层。 伪栅极 208可以例如为多晶硅。 在一个实施 例中, 伪栅极 208 包括非晶硅。 伪栅极介质层 212 和伪栅极 208 可以由 MOS (金属氧化物半导体)技术工艺, 例如沉积、 光刻、 蚀刻及 /或其他合适 的方法形成。
源 /漏极区 204、 206可以通过根据期望的晶体管结构, 注入 p型或 n 型掺杂物或杂质到衬底 202 中而形成。 源 /漏极区 204、 206可以由包括光 刻、 离子注入、 扩散和 /或其他合适工艺的方法形成。 源极和漏极 204、 206 可以后于伪栅极介质层 212形成, 利用通常的半导体加工工艺和步骤, 对 所述器件进行热退火, 以激活源极和漏极 204、 206中的掺杂, 热退火可以 釆用包括快速热退火、 尖峰退火等本领域技术人员所知晓的工艺进行。
覆盖所述栅堆叠 30形成侧墙 214。 侧墙 214可以由氮化硅、 氧化硅、 氮氧化硅、 碳化硅、 氟化物掺杂硅玻璃、 低 k电介质材料及其组合, 和 /或 其他合适的材料形成。 侧墙 214可以具有多层结构。 侧墙 214可以通过包 括沉积合适的电介质材料的方法形成。侧墙 214有一段覆盖在栅堆叠 30上, 这结构可以用本领域技术人员所知晓的工艺得到。在其它实施例中 ,侧墙 214 也可以没有覆盖在栅堆叠 30上。
特别地, 还可以在所述衬底上沉积形成内层介电层 (ILD ) 216 , 可以 是但不限于例如未掺杂的氧化硅(Si02 ) 、 掺杂的氧化硅(如硼硅玻璃、 硼磷硅玻璃等 )和氮化硅( Si3N4 ) 。 所述内层介电层 216可以使用例如化 学气相沉积 (CVD ) 、 物理气相沉积 (PVD ) 、 原子层沉积 (ALD ) 及 / 或其他合适的工艺等方法形成。 内层介电层 216可以具有多层结构。 在一
个实施例中, 内层介电层 216的厚度范围为大约 30到 90纳米。 而后, 对所述层间介质层 216和所述侧墙 214平坦化处理以暴露所述 伪栅极 208的上表面。 例如可以通过化学机械抛光 (CMP ) 方法来去除所 述层间介质层 216 , 直至暴露所述侧墙 214的上表面, 如图 3所示。 而后 再对所述侧墙 214进行化学机械抛光或反应离子刻蚀, 从而去除所述侧墙 214的上表面, 从而暴露所述伪栅极 208 , 如图 4所示。
而后方法进行到步骤 103 , 在该步骤中伪栅极 208被移除, 暴露所述伪 栅极介质层 212以形成开口 220。 如图 5所示。 例如, 选择性地蚀刻多晶硅 并停止在伪栅极介质层 212上来除去伪栅极 208并形成开口 220。 伪栅极 208 可以使用湿蚀刻和 /或干蚀刻除去。 在一个实施例中, 湿蚀刻工艺包括 四曱基氢氧化铵 (TMAH)、 氢氧化钾 (KOH ) 或者其他合适蚀刻剂溶液。
然后步骤进行到 104 , 在该步骤中从所述开口 220对衬底进行离子注 入, 以形成倒离子注入区。 优选地, 所述离子注入为基本垂直的离子注入。 所述形成所述离子注入区 222 可以用来形成倒掺杂阱。 参考图 6。 对于 N 型半导体器件, 使用 III族元素进行离子注入, 例如硼、 二氟化硼和铟; 对于 P型半导体器件, 使用 V族元素进行离子注入, 砷和磷。 可以釆用的离子注入 能量的范围大约为 3-40keV, 剂量大约为 Iel3-lel4,。 当离子注入用来形成倒 掺杂阱区时, 注入的深度范围大约为 10-35nm。 所述倒掺杂离子注入区阱 222 形成在所述开口 220 正下方的衬底中。 由于在开口中釆用基本垂直离子注 入方式, 因此所形成的离子注入区或倒掺杂阱不与所述源极区和漏极区重 叠。
在步骤 105 , 如图 7所示, 去除所述伪栅极介质层 212, 例如可以使用湿 蚀刻和 /或干蚀刻除去。 在一个实施例中, 湿蚀刻工艺包括氢氟酸(HF )或 者其他合适蚀刻剂溶液。 由于在离子注入过程中, 栅极介质层的性能可能 劣化。 因此, 需要去除所述伪栅极介质层 212 , 在后面再形成新的栅极介质 层。 在本实施例中, 伪栅极介质层 212在离子注入后去除。 在其它的实施例 中, 伪栅极介质层 212可以在下一步器件热退火后再去除。
随后, 在步骤 106, 对器件进行热退火, 以激活离子注入区 222 中的掺 杂 (杂质)。 例如可以釆用激光退火或者闪光退火, 在其他的实施例中可以釆
用其他的热退火工艺。 在这一步骤, 还需要考虑对源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺杂 (杂质) 的激活需要和扩散影响。 如果源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺杂已被热退火 激活, 在本步骤釆用的热退火需要瞬间退火, 以减少源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺 杂扩散。 根据本发明的实施例, 通常釆用瞬间退火工艺对器件进行热退火, 例 如在大约 1300°C以上的温度进行微妙级激光退火。
在步骤 107,在所述开口 220中形成新的栅极介质层 224和金属栅极 226, 所述栅极介质层 224覆盖所述衬底 202和侧墙 214的内壁。
如图 8所示, 在所述介质层 216的表面以及所述开口中沉积栅极介质 层 224 , 栅极介质层 224为高介电常数(高 k )材料。 在一个实施例中, 高 k材料包括二氧化铪(Hf02 ) 。 其他例子的高 k材料包括 HfSiO、 HfSiON、 HfTaO, HfTiO, HfZrO及其组合, 以及 /或者其他合适的材料。 栅极介质层 224可以包括大约 12埃到 35埃范围之间的厚度。栅极介质层 212可以通过 例如化学气相沉积 (CVD )或者原子层沉积 (ALD ) 的工艺来形成。 栅极介 质层 224还可以具有多层结构, 包括具有上述材料的一个以上的层。 函数金属栅层可以包括在大约 10埃到大约 100埃范围之间的厚度。 用于功 函数金属栅层的材料可以包括 TiN、 TiAlN、 TaN以及 TaAlN。
在其它的实施例中,在新的栅极介质层 224形成后, 可以增加一步热退火 处理, 以提高栅极介质层 224质量, 热退火的温度范围为 600至 800度。
之后在所述栅极介质层 224之上形成金属栅极 226, 如图 9所示。 金 属栅极材料可以包括一个或多个材料层, 例如衬层, 向栅极提供合适功函 数的材料, 栅电极材料和 /或其他合适材料。 对于 N型半导体器件可以从包 含下列元素的组中选择一种或多种元素进行沉积: TiN、 TiAlN、 TaAlN、 TaN、 TaSiN、 HfSiN、 MoSiN、 RuTax、 NiTax及这些材料的组合; 对于 P型半导体器 件可以从包含下列元素的组中选择一种或多种元素进行沉积: TiN、 TiSiN、 TiCN、 TaAlC、 TiAlN、 TaN、 PtSix、 Ni3Si、 Pt、 Ru、 Ir、 Mo、 魔 u、 RuOx 及这些材料的组合。
最后执行化学机械抛光 (CMP ) 工艺, 以形成金属栅极 226 , 如图 10 所示。 所示器件具有在所述开口正下方的衬底中的离子注入区 222的半导
体器件。 第二实施例
下面将仅就第二实施例区别于第一实施例的方面进行阐述。 未描述的 部分应当认为与第一实施例釆用了相同的步骤、 方法或者工艺来进行, 因 此再次不再赘述。 在根据本发明的第二实施例中,
如图 13所示, 在所述步骤 203中, 可以将伪栅极介质层 212与伪栅极 208—并去除, 从而暴露所述衬底 202 , 以形成开口 220 , 如图 11所示。 可以使用湿蚀刻和 /或干蚀刻除去所述伪栅极 208和伪栅极介质层 212。
而后与第一实施例的步骤相同,在步骤 204对所述器件进行离子注入, 以形成离子注入区 222。 优选地, 所述离子注入为基本垂直的离子注入。 所述形成所述离子注入区 222可以用来形成倒掺杂阱。 参考图 12。 对于 N 型半导体器件, 使用 III族元素进行离子注入, 例如硼、 二氟化硼和铟; 对于 P型半导体器件, 使用 V族元素进行离子注入, 砷和磷。 可以釆用的离子注入 能量的范围大约为 3-40keV, 剂量大约为 Iel3-lel4。 当离子注入用来形成倒 掺杂阱区时, 注入的深度范围大约为 10-35nm。 所述离子注入区 222形成在所 述开口 220正下方的衬底中, 由于在开口中釆用基本垂直离子注入方式, 因此所形成的倒掺杂阱不与所述源极区和漏极区重叠。
由于伪栅极介质层 212 已经在步骤 203中被去除, 因此, 直接进入步 骤 206 , 对器件进行热退火, 以激活倒掺杂阱 222 中的杂质。 例如可以釆用 一步骤, 还需要考虑对源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺杂的激活需要和扩散影响。 如 果源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺杂已被退火激活, 在本步骤釆用的热退火需要瞬间 退火, 以减少源 /漏区及源 /漏扩展区掺杂扩散。 根据本发明的实施例, 通常釆 用瞬间退火工艺对器件进行热退火, 例如在大约 1300 °C以上的温度进行微妙 级激光退火。
随后在开口 220中形成新的栅极介质层 224和金属栅极 226 , 所述栅极 介质层 224覆盖所述衬底 202和侧墙 214的内壁。 从而与第一实施例相同地, 获得了具有在所述开口正下方的衬底中的离子注入区 222的半导体器件。
上面已经根据本发明的第一和第二实施例描述了避免在衬底中形成离 子注入区, 例如倒掺杂阱区时对源 /漏区域引入不当掺杂的半导体器件的形 成方法的实施方式。
本发明的实施例利用去除伪栅极形成的开口进行离子注入, 使得离子注 入区倒掺杂阱形成在伪栅极正下方的衬底中,并使得倒掺杂阱离子注入区的分 布不与源 /漏极区的掺杂重叠。 本领域的技术人员应该知道, 说明书中提到的 离子注入区的形成为普遍的离子注入技术, 不仅限于倒掺杂阱的形成, 可 延伸为一普遍性离子注入技术: 利用栅极形成的开口进行离子注入, 在栅极 正下方的衬底中形成离子注入区, 同时避免了对源 /漏区域进行离子注入。 任何可离子注入的元素因具体应用都可以采用此技术。
此外,在现有技术中利用倒掺杂阱来改善短通道效应的方案是基于在沟道 中形成陡峭的倒掺杂阱以减小栅极下耗尽层的厚度, 进而减少短通道效应。这 通常要求倒掺杂阱要有很陡峭的分布以达到好的效果。但是由于源极区和漏极 区热退火的热预算太大,这种热退火形成原子扩散所需的温度和时间大于沟道 区内的掺杂退火需要。 因此不利地导致沟道区内的掺杂原子扩散过大,从而破 坏了陡峭的掺杂分布。 因为本发明流程可以选择先进行源 /漏区热退火、 然后 形成沟道中倒掺杂阱、 再进行倒掺杂阱热退火的方式, 这样就避免了源 /漏区 热退火对倒掺杂阱的影响, 可以有利地避免破坏陡峭的掺杂阱的分布。
此外, 由于在衬底中形成倒掺杂阱的离子注入通常在栅极介质形成后进 行, 离子注入可能使栅极介质劣化, 也会不利地降低器件的性能。 而本发明釆 用先进行倒掺杂阱离子注入,再形成栅极介质和金属栅极的方式, 可以避免上 述栅极介质劣化的问题。
虽然关于示例实施例及其优点已经详细说明,应当理解在不脱离本发明的 精神和所附权利要求限定的保护范围的情况下,可以对这些实施例进行各种变 化、 替换和修改。 对于其他例子, 本领域的普通技术人员应当容易理解在保持 本发明保护范围内的同时, 工艺步骤的次序可以变化。
此外, 本发明的应用范围不局限于说明书中描述的特定实施例的工艺、机 构、 制造、 物质组成、 手段、 方法及步骤。 从本发明的公开内容, 作为本领域 的普通技术人员将容易地理解, 对于目前已存在或者以后即将开发出的工艺、
机构、 制造、 物质组成、 手段、 方法或步骤, 其中它们执行与本发明描述的对 应实施例大体相同的功能或者获得大体相同的结果,依照本发明可以对它们进 行应用。 因此, 本发明所附权利要求旨在将这些工艺、机构、制造、物质组成、 手段、 方法或步骤包含在其保护范围内。
