本申请要求于2022年3月10日递交的中国专利申请号202210235558.2、申请名为“半导体结构及其制备方法”的优先权,其全部内容以引用的形式附录于此。
技术领域
本公开涉及半导体领域,尤其涉及一种半导体结构及其制备方法。
背景技术
对具有高性能的廉价半导体结构的需求推动集成密度,反过来,增加的集成密度对半导体制造工艺提出了更高的要求。
二维(2D)或平面型半导体结构的集成密度部分地由构成组成集成电路的各个元件(例如,存储器单元)占据的面积确定。各个元件占据的面积很大程度上由用于定义各个元件及其互连的图案化技术的尺寸参数(例如,宽度,长度,间距,窄度,相邻间隔等)确定。而提供越来越“精细”的图案需要开发和使用非常昂贵的图案形成设备。
随着半导体工业在追求更高的器件密度、更高的性能和更低的成本的过程中进入纳米技术工艺节点,来自制造和设计问题的挑战引起了诸如全环栅场效应晶体管(GAA FET)的三维设计的发展。
在全环栅场效应晶体管中,沟道区域的所有侧面都由栅电极包围,这允许沟道区域中更充分的耗尽,并且由于较陡的亚阈值电流摆幅(SS)和较小的漏致势垒降低(DIBL)而产生较少的短沟道效应。
随着晶体管尺寸不断缩小至10-15nm以下的技术节点,需要对具有全环栅场效应晶体管的半导体结构进行进一步的改进,以满足需求。

图2A-2E为本公开一具体实施方式提供的半导体结构制备方法的工艺截面示意图。请参阅步骤S10及图2A,提供衬底20。所述衬底20包括第一衬底201和第二衬底202。所述衬底201的导电类型可为N型或者P型。在本实施例中,所述衬底201为P型单晶硅衬底,并设置有逻辑电路;所述第二衬底202采用注入式激光二极管(ILD)。
请参阅步骤S11及图2B,于所述衬底20上形成基底图案21,所述基底图案21包括多个平行排布的位线211,在所述位线之间设置有隔离结构212。
本实施例列举了一种形成所述基底图案的方法,图3A-图3B为本公开一具体实施方式提供的形成基底图案的工艺截面示意图。
请参阅图3A,在衬底20表面形成隔离层210。所述隔离隔离层可采用绝缘材料,例如氧化物、氮化物等,在本实施例中,所述隔离层采用二氧化硅。
请参阅图3B,图案化所述隔离层210,形成隔离结构212,所述隔离结构212包括多个平行排布的条形凹槽213。在该步骤中,可采用光刻与刻蚀工艺结合的方式图案化所述隔离层210。所述隔离结构212与位线形成电隔离。
请参阅图2B,在所述条形凹槽213内形成位线211;在本公开的一种具体实施方式中,在所述位线211表面形成第一金属硅化物层214(未示出)。所采用的金属硅化物可包括能够形成硅化物的任何金属,包括但不限于钴、镍、钼、钛、钨、钽、铂、以及这些材料的组合,金属硅化物包括但不限于硅化钴、硅化钽、硅化镍、硅化钛、硅化钨等。另外,金属硅化物还可以包括例如掺杂有氮的硅化物的组合,例如氮硅化钴、氮硅化钨或氮硅化钨/硅化钨的组合。所述第一金属硅化物层214能够降低金属与硅之间的接触电阻,提升位线211与半导体柱22之间的导电能力。
在一些实施例中,所述位线221侧壁形成有空气间隙,在所述条形凹槽内形成位线包 括:在所述条形凹槽侧壁形成牺牲层;采用金属材料填充所述条形凹槽;去除所述牺牲层,形成空气间隙。空气间隙能够减少位线221之间的寄生电容,提升位线与隔离结构的电隔离效果,有利于提高半导体器件的效率,降低能耗。
请继续参阅步骤S12及图2C,在所述位线211表面形成多个沿位线方向排布的半导体柱22,所述位线211与所述半导体柱22电连接。在图2C中,为了清楚显示半导体器件的结构,仅示意性地绘示两个半导体柱22的截面。
本实施例提供一种形成所述半导体柱22的方法。图4A-图4B为本公开一具体实施方式提供的形成半导体柱的工艺截面示意图。
请参阅附图4A,在所述位线211表面形成氧化物半导体层220。
请参阅附图4B,在所述氧化物半导体层220表面形成保护层224。该步骤为可选步骤,在后续工艺中起到保护半导体柱22的顶端不被刻蚀的作用。
请参阅附图2C,图案化所述氧化物半导体层220和保护层224,以形成多个沿位线方向排布的半导体柱22,所述半导体柱22的顶面设置有所述图案化的保护结构225。可选地,在本实施例中,所述保护层224也被图案化。
在本公开一具体实施方式中,所述半导体柱22包括位于底部的第一源漏区221、中部的沟道区222、以及顶部的第二源漏区223;所述第一源漏区221和第二源漏区223采用第一型掺杂剂掺杂形成,所述沟道区222采用第二型掺杂剂掺杂形成;所述第一源漏区221和第二源漏区223分别与所述栅结构层232的下表面和上表面平行或部分重叠。所述半导体柱22与环绕式栅极结构23共同构成垂直晶体管。
其中,所述第一源漏区221、沟道区222、以及第二源漏区223仅是为了区分所述半导体柱22的不同区域在半导体结构中的功能,而并非是实质结构区别,即所述垂直晶体管为垂直无结晶体管。第一源漏区221、沟道区222、以及第二源漏区223的掺杂类型一致,且第一源漏区221和第二源漏区223的掺杂浓度大于沟道区222。对于半导体器件而言,随着集成度的增大,其尺寸进一步缩小,使得源极、漏极和沟道区域的面积缩小,在形成传统的PN结晶体管时,对源极和漏极掺杂的控制难度增加,在源极、漏极和沟道区域之间形成PN结变得越来越困难。而本公开半导体结构的制备方法能够制备垂直无结晶体管,其源极区、漏极区和沟道区的掺杂类型一致,不再形成PN结,因而避免了掺杂突变所产生的阈值电压漂移和漏电流增加等问题。同时,无结晶体管可以抑制短沟道效应,在几个纳米尺寸下仍然可以工作,可进一步提高4F2 MRAM存储器的集成度和性能。
进一步,在该步骤中形成的垂直无结晶体管为全环栅场效应垂直无结晶体管,其允许第二区212中更充分的耗尽,并且由于较陡的亚阈值电流摆幅(SS)和较小的漏致势垒降低(DIBL)而产生较少的短沟道效应。
