为了更好地理解本申请的技术方案和技术效果,以下将结合附图对具体的实施例进行详细的描述。
本申请实施例提供的半导体器件可以为存储器件或逻辑器件,本申请实施例提供的半 导体器件可以为垂直结构的晶体管器件,例如垂直结构的场效应晶体管(Field Effect Transistor,FET),具体可以是金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor,MOSFET)或隧穿场效应晶体管(Tunneling Field-Effect Transistor,TFET)。
参考图1所示,为本申请实施例提供的一种半导体器件的制造方法的流程图,该方法包括以下步骤:
S101,在衬底110的一侧上依次形成第一电极层120、至少包括锗的半导体层130和第二电极层140,参考图2所示。
在本申请的实施例中,可以在衬底110的一侧表面上依次形成第一电极层120、至少包括锗的半导体层130和第二电极层140。具体的,可以利用外延生长的方式形成第一电极层120、至少包括锗的半导体层130和第二电极层140。
衬底110可以是半导体衬底,例如硅衬底。在衬底110的一侧表面上形成第一电极层120之前,还可以对衬底110进行掺杂,形成阱层,参考图2所示,阱层是对衬底110的进行掺杂后形成的,相较于衬底110,掺杂后的阱层的导电性更高,能够与第一电极层120形成良好的电接触。掺杂可以是N型掺杂,掺杂元素为As或P,掺杂浓度为1e17-2e19/cm 3。掺杂也可以是P型掺杂,掺杂元素为B或In,掺杂浓度为1e17-2e19/cm 3。具体可以是在硅衬底上通过注入掺杂离子并进行退火工艺形成阱层。
作为一种示例,N型场效应晶体管(Field Effect Transistor,FET)注入P型杂质形成阱层,P型场效应晶体管(Field Effect Transistor,FET)注入N型杂质形成阱层。
在本申请的实施例中,在外延生长形成第一电极层120和第二电极层140之后,第一电极层120和第二电极层140的厚度约为10-50纳米(nm),第一电极层120和第二电极层140为掺杂的半导体层,第一电极层120和第二电极层140的掺杂类型相同,可以为N型掺杂,也可以为P型掺杂。由于第一电极层120为源极层或漏极层中的一种,第二电极层140为源极层或漏极层中的另一种,可以通过掺杂使得第一电极层120和第二电极层140的导电性能更好,具体可以利用原位掺杂进行掺杂。
作为一种示例,针对P型FET器件,第一电极层120为P型掺杂的硅层,掺杂元素为B或In,掺杂浓度为1e18-1e21/cm 3。第二电极层120为P型掺杂的硅层,掺杂元素为B或In,掺杂浓度为1e18-1e21/cm 3
作为另一种示例,针对N型FET器件,第一电极层120为N型掺杂的硅层,掺杂元素为As或P,掺杂浓度为1e18-1e21/cm 3。第二电极层120为N型掺杂的硅层,掺杂元素为As或P,掺杂浓度为1e18-1e21/cm 3
在本申请的实施例中,在外延生长形成第一电极层120之后,可以在第一电极层120上外延生长至少包括锗的半导体层130。半导体层130的材料至少包括锗,例如可以是锗或硅锗。半导体层130的厚度范围可以是10-100纳米。
作为一种可能的实现方式,若半导体层130的材料为硅锗SiGe时,锗的掺杂比例范围为10%-50%,若掺杂比例过小,则不能形成C型结构的开口,若掺杂比例过多,则晶格缺陷变多,可能会降低存储器件的性能。
作为一种示例,在垂直于衬底110的方向上,锗的掺杂比例不变。
作为另一种示例,在垂直于衬底110的方向上,锗的掺杂比例先增大后减小,即中部区域Ge组分大于上下区域Ge组分。由于中部区域Ge组分高,上下区域Ge组分低,Ge组分高的刻蚀速率大于Ge组分低的刻蚀速率,因而可以通过后续的刻蚀更容易形成包括弧形的开口。
在本申请的实施例中,在外延形成半导体层130之后,继续在半导体层130外延形成第二电极层140,而后在第二电极层140上继续依次形成刻蚀阻挡层101、晶硅层102和介质层103,参考图3所示。具体可以利用沉积工艺形成刻蚀阻挡层101、晶硅层102和介质层103。
刻蚀阻挡层101覆盖第二电极层140,用于保护其下的第二电极层140,还能作为刻蚀阻挡层,避免在形成第二电极层140的第二接触时,刻蚀损伤第二电极层140。刻蚀阻挡层101的材料可以是氧化硅,可以是利用高温工艺形成的结晶质量较高的氧化硅,以便提高半导体器件的性能。刻蚀阻挡层101的厚度可以是1-10纳米。

在具体进行刻蚀形成介质挡墙105时,还需要选用对刻蚀阻挡层101具有选择比的刻蚀剂,以便在刻蚀时,不会损伤刻蚀阻挡层101。
