具体实施方式
本申请技术方案可以应用于半导体存储器的设计与制造,例如,常用的DRAM等半导体存储器。通常的DRAM采用电容实现电荷的存储,通过电荷的存储量来表示一个二进制比特(bit)的取值,即一个存储单元可以用于表示一个比特位的逻辑状态。由于晶体管存在漏电电流等现象,会导致存储的电荷容易发生流失,进而影响数据存储的稳定性。因此,对于DRAM需要周期性地充放电,刷新存储数据从而实现动态存储。
考虑到电容结构需要两个电容极板以及介质层等结构,需要占用较大的空间尺寸,导致单个存储单元的尺寸难以缩小,存储器的整体尺寸也受到该瓶颈的限制。因此,本申请实施例提供一种存储器,采用与晶体管的导电沟道连通的存储层实现电荷的传递和存储,进而不需要电容器,实现1T0C的存储单元结构,有效减少存储器的尺寸。
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请的技术方案进一步详细阐述。
本申请实施例提供一种存储器,如图1所示,存储器100包括:
衬底110;
在所述衬底110表面包括多个晶体管120的晶体管阵列;所述晶体管120的导电沟道121在垂直于衬底110表面的方向延伸;
存储层130;所述存储层130位于每个所述晶体管120的导电沟道121的一侧,且与所述晶体管120的导电沟道121相连通,用于存储电荷以及与相连通的所述导电沟道进行电荷传递。
这里,衬底可以为硅材料或者其他晶圆材料制作的半导体衬底。存储器的器件结构都可以在该衬底的表面通过各种半导体器件的工艺制程来制作形成,例如,通过掺杂、光刻、沉积以及清洗等各种工艺制程,在衬底表面形成具有分层的图形化结构,进而形成半导体器件。
在本申请实施例中,在衬底表面形成多个晶体管,并且晶体管以成对的方式排布在衬底表面。多对晶体管可以排布成行列从而形成晶体管阵列构成存储器。
这里,晶体管的导电沟道沿着垂直于衬底表面的方向延伸,相比于平行于衬底表面形成的晶体管可以占用更少的衬底表面积,提高衬底面积的利用率。
在本公开实施例中,通过与每个晶体管的导电沟道连通的存储层来实现电荷的存储,并且存储层能够与导电沟道进行电荷传递,实现存储单元逻辑状态的改变。存储层可以为半导体材料或者金属材料,可以用于存储电子或空穴。存储层与导电沟道连通,当晶体管上施加有电压时,导电沟道内产生电荷积累并与存储层形成电势差,从而与存储层发生电荷传输,改变存储层的电荷量。这样,就可以通过对晶体管的控制实现存储层与导电沟道之间的电荷传递,并在存储层中存储电荷。
存储层分布于每个晶体管的侧面与晶体管的导电沟道连通,存储层也是沿垂直于衬底表面的方向延伸,因此占用的衬底表面积很少。
本申请实施例的上述存储器结构,不仅节省了存储器中电容结构所需的制造空间,并且在形态上采用垂直化的方式进一步节省了对衬底表面积的占用,有效增大了单位面积的存储单元数量。本申请实施例还通过存储层实现了电荷存储,代替了原有电容的功能,实现1T0C的存储单元结构,有利于存储器小尺寸、高集成度的发展。
在一些实施例中,如图2所示,所述晶体管120的源极122位于所述导电沟道121靠近所述衬底110表面的一端;
所述晶体管120的漏极123位于所述导电沟道121远离所述衬底110表面的一端。
晶体管包括源极、栅极和漏极,通过栅极的电压控制,以及源极和漏极之间的电压差,实现源极和漏极之间的电荷导通或断开的状态切换。在本申请实施例中,晶体管导电沟道延伸的方向为垂直于衬底表面的方向,因此,晶体管的源极与漏极分别位于导电沟道的两端,即靠近衬底表面的一端和远离衬底表面的一端。
如此,晶体管的结构可以有效利用衬底上方的高度空间,节省衬底表面的表面积,从而使得单位面积的衬底表面可以集成更多的存储单元,提高存储器的存储效能。
在一些实施例中,所述晶体管的源极周围覆盖有第一绝缘层;所述第一绝缘层的相对于所述衬底表面的高度高于所述源极相对于所述衬底表面的高度。
在晶体管的源极周围可以通过第一绝缘层来覆盖晶体管源极,从而达到保护以及隔离源极与存储层的作用。第一绝缘层可以以一定的厚度均匀分布在衬底表面,该厚度的第一绝缘层可以完全覆盖住晶体管的源极,第一绝缘层相对于衬底表面的高度高于源极相对于衬底表面的高度。
这里,第一绝缘层的材料可以是氧化硅、氮化硅等材料,也可以是有机物材料等。
在一些实施例中,所述晶体管连通有所述存储层的一侧具有第二绝缘层,所述第二绝缘层覆盖所述存储层且所述第二绝缘层与所述第一绝缘层连通。由于在本申请实施例中,每个晶体管之间可以通过第二绝缘层相互隔离,并且第二绝缘层可以由第一绝缘层所在的位置即晶体管的导电沟道底部一直延伸至导电沟道的顶部。并且第二绝缘层与第一绝缘层相互隔离,并且存储层与其他晶体管以及其他存储层之间也通过绝缘层相互隔离。
此外,由于第一绝缘层覆盖在晶体管的源极上,第一绝缘层与第二绝缘层连通,可以形成一个整体的绝缘层,使得晶体管的源极以及存储层都相互隔离,并且被绝缘层所覆盖,从而减少源极与存储层之间产生电荷移动,便于存储层稳定地存储电荷。
这里,第一绝缘层与第二绝缘层可以为相同材料,也可以为不同材料。
在一些实施例中,如图3所示,所述存储器还包括:
至少一条位线140,位于所述晶体管120远离所述衬底110表面的一侧,与所述晶体管120的漏极123连接。
在本申请实施例中,存储器的多个晶体管可以排布形成行列结构的晶体管阵列,每一列晶体管可以通过位线连接,从而便于通过位线控制整列晶体管的读写数据。
位线可以为导电材料构成的线性薄膜,与晶体管的漏极连接,能够与晶体管的漏极产生电荷传递。位线的电势高低决定了晶体管进行数据读写的状态,因此,可以通过外部的电路向存储器的位线施加电压,从而改变位线的电势高低。
在一些实施例中,所述位线连通所述晶体管阵列中位于同一列的晶体管的漏极。
在本申请实施例中,一条位线可以覆盖多个晶体管,即在晶体管阵列处于同一列的晶体管由同一位线控制。这样,通过位线与存储器中的字线的配合,实现对每一晶体管的精确控制。
在一些实施例中,如图4所示,所述晶体管120的栅极124位于与所述导电沟道121连通的所述存储层130相对的另一侧,所述晶体管120的导电沟道121位于所述栅极124与所述存储层130之间。由于本申请实施例中的晶体管的导电沟道沿垂直于衬底表面的方向延伸,因此,晶体管源极与漏极之间的电荷流动也是沿着导电沟道延伸的方向。晶体管的栅极则从导电沟道的一侧控制导电沟道的导通性能,晶体管的栅极位于导电沟道的侧面,与导电沟道成平行的状态。
晶体管对应的存储层与晶体管的导电沟道的一侧连通,因此,晶体管的栅极则位于导电沟道的另一侧,该侧与存储层所在的一侧相对,使得晶体管的导电沟道位于栅极和存储层之间。
在一些实施例中,所述栅极包括:
栅极氧化层和栅极导电层;
所述栅极氧化层位于所述栅极导电层与所述导电沟道之间;或
所述栅极氧化层包裹所述栅极导电层,且与所述导电沟道相连。
在本申请实施例中,晶体管的导电沟道与晶体管的栅极导电层之间具有栅极氧化层,用于隔离栅极导电层与导电沟道。这样,导电沟道的导电性能可以通过栅极导电层的电势与导电沟道之间产生的场效应来控制。也就是说,导电沟道的导通或截止状态可以通过栅极导电层上所加的电压来切换。
上述栅极氧化层可以与栅极导电层形成平行于导电沟道的两层结构,栅极导电层的外侧可以通过绝缘材料进行隔离,从而与相邻晶体管的栅极之间相互独立。此外,栅极氧化层也可以包裹上述栅极导电层,使得栅极导电层的内侧和外侧均由栅极氧化层隔离开。
在一些实施例中,所述存储器还包括:
栅极保护层,覆盖于所述栅极远离所述衬底表面的一侧。
栅极保护层覆盖在栅极上方可以与晶体管的漏极平齐,从而隔离栅极与漏极以及栅极与晶体管顶部的其他结构,例如位线。
栅极保护层可以由氧化物或者如氮化硅等绝缘材料构成。当然,栅极保护层也可以为与栅极氧化层相同材料的薄膜,并与栅极氧化层连通,从而保护并隔离栅极导电层。
在一些实施例中,所述晶体管阵列中位于同一行的所述晶体管的栅极连通;其中,所述连通的栅极为所述同一行晶体管的字线。
在本申请实施例中,晶体管的栅极是由多个晶体管共用的,也就是说,栅极是以长条的形状从侧面覆盖多个晶体管的导电沟道。
这样,位于同一行的晶体管由同一栅极控制,这一栅极也就构成了这一行晶体管的字线。
这样,对于存储器整体,晶体管阵列的字线和位线形成了行列分别控制的结构,从而可以实现针对每个晶体管的精准的读写控制。
本申请实施例还提供一种存储器的制造方法,如图5所示,该方法包括:
步骤S101、在衬底表面形成包括多个晶体管的晶体管阵列;其中,所述晶体管的导电沟道在垂直于衬底表面的方向延伸;
步骤S102、在每个所述晶体管侧面垂直于所述衬底表面的方向形成存储层;所述存储层连通所述晶体管,用于存储电荷以及与相连通的所述导电沟道进行电荷传递。
这里,在衬底表面形成多个晶体管,可以是在衬底表面同步形成构成行列结构的晶体管阵列。
在本申请实施例中,可以在衬底表面一定厚度进行掺杂、离子注入等处理使得衬底的一定厚度具有更强的导电性能。此时,衬底表面的掺杂后的半导体层如图6A所示,衬底110的上层为进行处理后的半导体层,这里可以称之为有源层111。
然后可以通过光刻等工艺形成行列分布的多个导电沟道。如图6B所示,在形成导电沟道121的过程可以包括:在上述有源层表面覆盖掩膜层610,然后通过图形化的光照、刻蚀等工艺,去除部分有源层的半导体材料,保留的部分则为多个晶体管的导电沟道121。剩余的衬底底部则为存储器的衬底,作为晶体管阵列的载体,同时用于提供地电位与晶体管的源极或者漏极连接。此外,还可以在晶体管导电沟道的各相邻位置分别形成晶体管的源极、栅极以及漏极等结构,形成存储器的晶体管阵列。这样,形成的导电沟道相对于衬底表面是垂直延伸的,因此可以占用极少的衬底表面积,提升存储器的集成度。
针对每一晶体管可以对应形成一存储层,该存储层可以与晶体管的导电沟道连通,因此,可以在晶体管的导电沟道侧面覆盖存储层所使用的半导体材料或者金属材料,形成薄膜。
如此,就形成了均匀分布的晶体管阵列以及每一晶体管的对的存储层。在存储器使用的过程中,可以通过针对每一晶体管的控制,实现在对应存储层的电荷流动以及电荷存储。针对整个存储器,则可以通过对不同位置的晶体管控制,实现数据的读写和存储功能。
在一些实施例中,所述在每个所述晶体管侧面垂直于所述衬底表面的方向形成存储层,包括:
在所述晶体管的导电沟道一侧形成沟槽;
在所述沟槽中沉积半导体材料或金属材料,覆盖所述沟槽的侧壁和底部;
刻蚀去除所述沟槽底部的所述半导体材料或金属材料,形成所述存储层。
在衬底上形成晶体管的导电沟道的过程中,需要去除各晶体管之间有源层的半导体材料,使得每个导电沟道垂直立在衬底的底层上,上述过程在各导电沟道之间形成了沟槽。因此,可以在每个晶体管的导电沟道一侧的沟槽内形成存储层,并覆盖在导电沟道的侧面上。
示例性地,可以通过将半导体材料或者金属材料,包括如单晶硅(Si)、锗(Ge)、硅锗(Si-Ge)、铝锑(Al-Sb)或者镓锑(Ga-Sb)等材料沉积在上述沟槽内,包括物理气相沉积(PVD,Physical Vapor Deposition)以及化学气相沉积(CVD,Chemical Vapor Deposition)等方式,使得晶体管导电沟道的一侧覆盖有上述半导体材料或者金属材料形成存储层。
如此,就形成了均匀分布的晶体管阵列以及对应的存储层。在存储器使用的过程中,可以通过针对每一晶体管的控制,实现在对应存储层的电荷流动以及电荷存储。针对整个存储器,则可以通过对不同位置的晶体管控制,实现数据的读写和存储功能。
在一些实施例中,所述在衬底表面形成包括多个晶体管的晶体管阵列,包括:
在所述衬底表面形成垂直于所述衬底表面的多个导电沟道;
在所述导电沟道靠近所述衬底表面的一端形成多个所述晶体管的源极;
在所述导电沟道远离所述衬底表面的一端形成多个所述晶体管的漏极。
晶体管包括源极、栅极和漏极,通过栅极的电压控制,以及源极和漏极之间的电压差,实现源极和漏极之间的电荷导通或断开的状态切换。在本申请实施例中,晶体管导电沟道延伸的方向为垂直于衬底表面的方向,因此,晶体管的源极与漏极分别位于导电沟道的两端,即靠近衬底表面的一端和远离衬底表面的一端。
在本申请实施例中,可以在形成导电沟道之后,先在导电沟道靠近衬底表面的一端形成晶体管的源极,此时源极是与衬底连通的,因此源极可以通过衬底接地。然后可以在导电沟道远离衬底表面的一端形成晶体管的漏极,这样,晶体管的电荷传输则沿着为源极到漏极通过导电沟道形成的导电通路。
需要说明的是,形成导电沟道源极、漏极、栅极以及存储层等结构的顺序这里不做限定,可以先形成上述导电沟道的源极、漏极和栅极后再形成存储层,也可以在形成导电沟道的源极后形成存储层,再形成漏极以及栅极等等。在实际应用中,可以根据生产规划、各层光罩的形态、各层材料特性以及工艺制程的设备参数需求等综合考虑上述形成顺序。
在一些实施例中,所述在所述衬底表面形成垂直于所述衬底表面的导电沟道,包括:
在硅材料衬底上进行掺杂,形成有源层;
在所述有源层进行图形化刻蚀,形成垂直于所述衬底表面的导电沟道。
衬底可以为硅材料或者其他晶圆材料制作的半导体衬底,在形成晶体管的过程中, 可以先对衬底的表层一定厚度的半导体材料进行掺杂,可以为N型掺杂或P型掺杂。例如,通过磷离子或硼离子等三价或五价离子进行掺杂或者离子注入,使得衬底的表层形成P型半导体或者N型半导体。这样做的目的是提升半导体材料的导电性能,使其能够构成晶体管的导电沟道。
然后进行图形化刻蚀,去除需要形成导电沟道的位置以外的半导体材料,保留部分半导体材料则形成上述导电沟道。这里,图形化刻蚀所保留下的图形即为导电沟道的形状,可以为截面为正方形的柱体、截面为长方形的柱体、截面为菱形的柱体或者截面为圆形等各种形状的柱体,这些柱体就构成了晶体管的导电沟道。
在一些实施例中,如图7A所示,所述在所述导电沟道121靠近所述衬底110表面的一端形成所述晶体管120的源极122,包括:
在所述衬底表面沉积重掺杂介质层710;
高温激活所述重掺杂介质层710,在所述导电沟道121靠近所述衬底110表面的一端形成所述源极122。
这里,重掺杂介质层可以为含有与导电沟道极性相反的掺杂离子的半导体材料,例如,导电沟道为N型掺杂,那么重掺杂介质层为P型掺杂;导电沟道为P型掺杂,那么重掺杂介质层为N型掺杂。
这样,通过高温激活,重掺杂介质层中的导电离子被活化,从而传递至导电沟道内,使得导电沟道在靠近衬底表面的端部重新注入相反极性的离子,从而形成晶体管源极。
在高温激活并在导电沟道底部形成源极后,可以再通过刻蚀的方法去除重掺杂介质层。为了防止衬底表面有残留的重掺杂介质层材料,可以在刻蚀的过程中过刻蚀掉衬底的一部分,从而使得晶体管的源极有一部分嵌入在衬底内,一部分暴露在衬底以上。
在一些实施例中,所述在所述导电沟道远离所述衬底表面的一端形成所述晶体管的漏极,包括:
在所述导电沟道远离所述衬底表面的一端外延生长单晶硅层;
在所述单晶硅层进行离子注入或掺杂形成所述漏极。
在形成上述漏极时,可以在晶体管导电沟道远离衬底表面的一端外延生长单晶硅并进一步进行掺杂或者离子注入,形成P型或N型半导体。需要说明的是,形成漏极的掺杂极性与导电沟道的极性也为相反极性,从而形成PNP或者NPN结构的晶体管。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
在所述晶体管的源极周围形成第一绝缘层;其中,所述第一绝缘层的相对于所述衬底表面的高度高于所述源极相对于所述衬底表面的高度。
在形成晶体管的源极之后,可以进一步在晶体管导电沟道的侧面形成晶体管对应的存储层。但存储层与源极之间不能互通,因此,这里可以通过形成覆盖源极的第一绝缘层来隔离和保护晶体管的源极,然后在形成晶体管对应的存储层。
这里,第一氧化层的材料可以为氧化硅、氮化硅或者其他有机材料等形成的绝缘的薄膜。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
在所述晶体管连通有所述存储层的一侧形成第二绝缘层;其中,所述第二绝缘层覆 盖所述存储层且所述第二绝缘层与所述第一绝缘层连通。
这里形成每晶体管对应的存储层之后,可以在各晶体管之间形成第二绝缘层,并使得第二绝缘层与第一绝缘层连通。这样,第二绝缘层可以包裹住存储层以及晶体管,防止电荷泄漏,提升存储性能。
第二绝缘层与第一绝缘层的材料可以相同也可以不同。并且,形成第二绝缘层的过程可以是通过沉积绝缘材料填满各晶体管之间的沟槽,从而达到隔绝各晶体管的存储层的作用。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
在所述晶体管远离所述衬底表面的一侧形成至少一条位线;其中,所述位线与所述晶体管的漏极连接。
在本申请实施例中,通过在各晶体管之间的沟槽内填充上述第二氧化层,使得晶体管远离衬底表面的一端处于近似的平面内,这时,可以在最上层涂布金属材料、具有较强导电性能的半导体材料或者其他材料形成导电层。
然后在导电层通过图形化的刻蚀去除多余的导电材料,保留线性的导电材料从而形成上述位线。
这里,位线与晶体管的漏极连接,从而可以进行电荷传递。
在一些实施例中,所述在衬底表面形成包括多个晶体管的晶体管阵列,还包括:
在所述导电沟道的连通有所述存储层一侧相对的另一侧形成所述晶体管的栅极;其中,所述晶体管的导电沟道位于所述栅极与所述存储层之间。
可以在晶体管导电沟道与形成存储层的一侧相对的另一侧形成晶体管的栅极,因此,形成栅极的过程可以在形成上述存储层之前也可以在形成存储层之后。
在形成栅极以及存储层后,每一晶体管以及对应的存储层都具有相同的结构,并整齐地排布在衬底表面,形成存储单元的阵列结构。
在一些实施例中,所述在所述导电沟道的连通有所述存储层一侧相对的另一侧形成所述晶体管的栅极,包括:
在所述导电沟道的所述另一侧形成连通所述导电沟道的栅极氧化层;
在所述栅极氧化层的一侧形成连通所述栅极氧化层的栅极导电层;其中,所述栅极栅极氧化层位于所述栅极导电层与所述导电沟道之间;或所述栅极氧化层包裹所述栅极导电层,且与所述导电沟道相连。
晶体管的栅极包括栅极氧化层以及栅极导电层,可以在晶体管导电沟道的一侧先形成栅极氧化层,然后再形成栅极导电层;也可以先形成栅极氧化层,再在栅极氧化层的中间刻蚀形成沟槽,然后在沟槽内形成栅极导电层,从而使得栅极导电层被栅极氧化层所包裹。
在一些实施例中,所述方法还包括:
在所述栅极远离所述衬底表面的一端形成覆盖所述栅极的栅极保护层。
由于栅极导电层的顶部,即远离衬底表面的一端可能会暴露出来,为了保护栅极导电层,使其不受外界干扰,可以在栅极上方覆盖绝缘的栅极保护层。
栅极保护层可以由氧化物或者如氮化硅等绝缘材料构成。当然,栅极保护层也可以 为与栅极氧化层相同材料的薄膜,并与栅极氧化层连通,从而保护并隔离栅极导电层。
在一些实施例中,所述在所述导电沟道的连通有所述存储层一侧相对的另一侧形成所述晶体管的栅极,包括:
在所述晶体管阵列中同一行晶体管的一侧形成贯通的沟槽;
在所述沟槽内形成连通所述同一行晶体管的所述栅极;其中,所述栅极为所述同一行晶体管的字线。
在形成栅极的过程中,可以在晶体管的导电沟道相对于存储层的另一侧形成贯通的沟槽,从而形成一行晶体管共用的栅极。这样,这一行晶体管共用的栅极就行成了对应的字线。
本申请实施例还提供如下示例:
如图8所示,本申请实施例提供一种存储器的示意图,即一种垂直沟道的无电容结构的DRAM,即1T0C DRAM。如图8表示的存储器的剖面图部分(1)所示,晶体管的导电沟道811垂直于衬底810表面,源极812位于靠近衬底810表面的一端;漏极813位于远离衬底810表面的一端。每个晶体管的一侧具有存储层814,与晶体管的导电沟道811连通。此外,晶体管的栅极815位于晶体管相对的外侧。每个晶体管之间则填充有绝缘材料相互隔离。由于不需要电容,每个存储单元(晶体管及其对应的存储层)在尺寸上可以缩小至2F2,(F为存储器单元的最小外形尺寸,F2则表示单位面积)同时,由于导电沟道811在垂直于衬底810表面的方向上延伸,因此可以增加导电沟道811的长度,而不会占用过多衬底810的表面积。
存储器的俯视图如图8中的部分(2)所示,在每一晶体管的顶部覆盖有导电材料并连通整列的晶体管,从而形成位线821。晶体管的栅极则贯通整行晶体管形成字线,图8中的俯视图的部分(2)中未示出栅极,但可以看到栅极顶部与字线所在位置一致的栅极保护层822。图8中剖面图的部分(1)对应的剖面位于俯视图的部分(2)对应的直线80处。
形成上述结构的方法包括如下步骤:
步骤1、如图9所示,在硅衬底900一定厚度进行P型或N型掺杂,形成有源层910;
步骤2、如图10所示,在上述有源层910覆盖掩膜层920,并进行图形化的刻蚀,去除导电沟道以外的有源层,剩余的半导体结构则为导电沟道911。导电沟道911可以为方形、菱形等不同形状。上述掩膜层920可以为氮化硅。其中,图10中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。

步骤4、如图12所示,沉积重掺杂介质层后高温激活,使有源区底部即导电沟道911的底部形成源极912或者漏极,然后可以通过刻蚀去除重掺杂介质层。这里,为了完全去除重掺杂介质层,可以过刻蚀一部分衬底。其中,图12中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤5、如图13所示,在衬底表面沉积氧化层940,氧化层940的表面可以略高于 源极912表面,有效隔离源极。然后可以在氧化层940上方填充绝缘介质950。绝缘介质层950的材料可以是氧化硅或者氮化硅等无机物,也可以是有机绝缘材料。其中,图13中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤6、如图14所示,图形化刻蚀,在有源区一侧的绝缘介质950形成沟槽951或者孔结构,漏出晶体管的导电沟道911。以上述氧化层940作为刻蚀的停止层,防止刻蚀漏出源极。其中,图14中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤7、如图15所示,在沟槽951中形成半导体材料层或者金属材料层中的至少一种。半导体层可以是Si层,并且半导体材料可以包括Ge,Si-Ge,Al-Sb和Ga-Sb中的至少一种,半导体材料层的价带比有源区高,半导体中还可以有量子点,用来储存电子,即形成与导电沟道911连通的存储层960。其中,图15中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤8、如图16所示,在沟槽951填充氧化层941,使得氧化层940与氧化层941连通,并包裹晶体管对应的存储层960。其中,图16中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤9、如图17所示,图形化刻蚀在导电沟道911另一侧的隔离层中打开沟槽970,露出有源区,以氧化层940为刻蚀停止层,防止沟槽露出源极。其中,图17中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤10、如图18所示,在上述沟槽970中沉积栅极氧化层971、栅极金属层972并回刻至有源区水平的位置,并填充栅极保护层973。其中,图18中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤11、如图19所示,去除导电沟道911即有源层顶部的掩膜层,并外延生长单晶硅层,然后离子注入或者掺杂形成晶体管漏极913。其中,图19中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
步骤12、如图20所示,晶体管结构的顶部形成导电层,然后通过图形化刻蚀形成连接漏极913的位线980。其中,图20中的部分(1)为剖面图,部分(2)为俯视图,其中的黑线90表示部分(1)的剖面位置。
