Description

隧穿晶体管及隧穿晶体管的制备方法 技术领域
本发明涉及半导体技术领域,具体涉及了一种隧穿晶体管及隧穿晶体管的制备方法。
背景技术
微电子器件一般制作在半导体衬底上然后集成电路。互补金属氧化物半导体器件(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor,CMOS)是集成电路的核心单元,其尺寸遵循摩尔(Moore)定律,以获得更优异的性能、更高的集成密度以及更低的成本。
然而,随着CMOS晶体管尺寸的缩小,其功耗也持续增加。部分原因是因为短沟道效应引起的泄漏电流的增加,同时也归咎于CMOS器件的供电电压难以缩减。其中,CMOS器件的供电电压难以缩减主要是由于亚阈值摆幅SS受限,室温下不能低于60mV/decade,即如果保持过驱动电压不变的情况下降低供电电压60mV,其源漏漏电将增加一个量级。
隧穿场效应晶体管(tunnel field effect transistor,TFET)由于能突破SS限制,被认为是替代CMOS器件降低供电电压的较好的器件。目前,常规TFET的工作时的载流子的隧穿方向与栅电场不在同一方向上,即点隧穿机制。由于点隧穿机制隧穿面积较小,隧穿结的栅控电场不强,导致载流子隧穿几率较低,使得TFET存在隧穿电流小的缺点。

在本实施方式中,在形成所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域后,去除余下的注入阻挡层, 进行所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域金属化工艺,以使得在所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域的部分表面形成一硅化物层(如图18所示),以便于后续生成源极及漏极通过通孔能与所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域进行连接。
步骤S207,氧化物的填充及CMP工艺。如图17所示,在所述衬底、所述N-MOSFET、所述P-MOSFET以及所述N-TFET假栅周围进行氧化物或低K材料填充,对所述氧化物或低K材料进行化学机械研磨(CMP)或低温热氧化+旋涂玻璃(LTO+SOG)平坦化工艺,暴露出N-TFET上端的Poly层,CMP工艺的目的为对总的氧化物填充层厚度进行控制。
步骤S208,所述N-TFET第二源极区域及晕环层的形成,使得所述N-TFET第二源极区域与所述N-TFET漏极区域之间形成沟道。如图19所示,利用湿法腐蚀去除N-TFET上暴露出的Poly层及下方Oxide、Poly、Oxide,然后以所述侧墙为注入阻挡层,进行大倾角注入离子以形成N-TFET的第二源极区域及晕环层,其中,大倾角注入方向为所述第一源极区域方向,所述大倾角的范围为30°~45°,所述大倾角注入离子具体分为三步骤:1)与所述N-TFET第一源极区域掺杂类型相同的较大能量的超陡倒退掺杂源(Super-Steep Retrograde Source,简称SSRS)注入,以形成所述N-TFET第二源极区域;2)大剂量的C、Ge注入,使得所述N-TFET沟道非晶化,从而使后续注入结深减小,增加所述N-TFET晕环层与所述N-TFET第二源极区域之间的隧穿电场,进而增大隧穿电流;3)与所述漏极区域掺杂类型相同的超低能的pocket注入,以形成所述晕环层。
在本实施方式中,在形成所述N-TFET第二源极区域及所述晕环层后,进行快速退火工艺,从而激活所述N-TFET第二源极区域及所述晕环层的离子。
在本实施方式中,所述N-TFET第二源极区域进行P型离子重掺杂,所述晕环层进行N型离子重掺杂;在另一实施方式中,若所述隧穿晶体管为P型隧穿晶体管时,所述第二源极区域进行N型离子重掺杂,所述晕环层进行P型离子重掺杂;所述P型离子包括硼离子、镓离子或铟离子中的至少一种;所述N型 离子包括磷离子或砷离子中的至少一种。
在本实施方式中,大倾角注入的目的是形成图19中所示的注入阴影区,使所述晕环层中靠近所述漏端区域能自对准的不受注入的影响,这样达到即固定注入阴影区宽度(如图19所示),又同时能保证所述第二源极区域与所述晕环层能与所述栅极区域自对准的进行掺杂。在本实施方式中,可以通过调节步骤S207中的平坦化高度及大倾角离子注入角度来调节注入阴影区在所述沟道中投射距离的大小,从而调节所述沟道中非掺杂区域的大小。
步骤S209,N-TFET的栅介质层及栅极区域的形成。如图20所示,沉积一栅介质层及金属栅材料,通过CMP工艺对填充后的金属栅进行平坦化,以形成所述N-TFET的栅介质层及栅极区域。
步骤S210,N-MOSFET及P-MOSFET栅极区域的形成。如图21所示,在N-TFET区域沉积一层氧化物,以实现保护N-TFET在后续沉积N-MOSFET及P-MOSFET金属栅极材料不受影响。沉积一CMOS属栅材料,过CMP工艺对填充后的金属栅进行平坦化,以形成所述N-MOSFET及P-MOSFET的栅极区域。
在本实施方式中,关于N-TFET器件,由于栅极区域层叠设置在所述栅介质层及所述第二源极区域上,当所述栅极区域加载电信号时,所述栅极区域加载的电信号的电场方向为竖直方向。由此可见,所述栅极区域加载的电信号的电场方向与电子的隧穿方向一致,即为线隧穿机制。当N-TFET隧穿晶体管发生隧穿时,在所述第二源极区域处发生线隧穿,从而提高了隧穿效率,进而提高了隧穿晶体管的开态电流。
另外,大剂量的Ge在经过退火后形成锗硅材料,调整Ge注入的能量,在N型隧穿晶体管中,使所述锗硅材料位于所述晕环层下方的第二源极区域,减小所述隧穿晶体管的源端材料禁带宽度,进一步提高整个N-TFET器件的开态电流,在P型隧穿晶体管中,使所述锗硅材料位于所述晕环层,减小所述隧穿晶体管的晕环层材料禁带宽度,进一步提高整个N-TFET器件的开态电流。
步骤S211,进行N-MOSFET、P-MOSFET以及N-TFET通孔以及标准CMOS工艺后端工艺制作,目的是为了形成一个完整的CMOS晶体管及隧穿晶体管。
进行N-MOSFET、P-MOSFET以及N-TFET通孔制作可以由以下的方式形成,请参阅图22,对所述氧化物填充层通过刻蚀工艺在所述N-MOSFET、所述P-MOSFET以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域上形成一通孔,在所述N-MOSFET、所述P-MOSFET以及所述N-TFET漏极区域上形成另一通孔,然后对形成的通孔进行金属材料沉积,以使得所述N-MOSFET、所述P-MOSFET以及所述N-TFET的源漏极穿过通孔源极区域及漏极区域连接。
在另一实施方式中,所述进行N-MOSFET、P-MOSFET以及N-TFET通孔制作也可以由以下方式形成:在形成所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域后,在形成所述栅介质层及所述栅极区域之前不进行所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域金属化工艺,而是在完成所述栅介质层及所述栅极区域之后,对所述氧化物填充层通过刻蚀工艺在形成所述N-MOSFET源极区域、所述P-MOSFET源极区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域上形成所述第一通孔位置,在形成所述N-MOSFET漏极区域、所述P-MOSFET漏极区域以及所述N-TFET漏极区域上形成所述第二通孔120位置,在所述两个通孔位置中,对形成所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域的所述衬底表面的进行金属化工艺,以使得在两个通孔位置中,及在形成所述N-MOSFET源漏区域、所述P-MOSFET源漏区域以及所述N-TFET第一源极区域及漏极区域的部分表面形成一硅化物层,然后对所述第一通孔及第二通孔的通孔进行材料填充。
