があるのみであった。FIG. 3 shows a structural diagram of a conventional structure in which a low resistance element, particularly a high resistance element, is formed on a semiconductor substrate using polycrystalline silicon. Polycrystalline silicon 2 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 3 with an insulating film 9, which is an oxide film, interposed therebetween, and is connected to aluminum electrode lines 4 and 6 via contacts 5 and 7. There was an insulating film 10 on top of the polycrystalline silicon 2, and on the top there was a signal line made of aluminum wiring or no signal line at all, only an oxidized protective film.

った。Further, FIG. 4 shows a structural diagram in which a low resistance element, which is conventionally formed by a low concentration diffusion layer or a diffusion layer formed by ion implantation, is formed on a semiconductor substrate. Diffused resistor 12 formed on the surface of semiconductor substrate 13 is connected to aluminum electrode lines 14 and 16 via contacts 15 and 17. There is an insulating film which is an oxide film on top of the diffused resistor, and on top of that there is another signal wiring made of polycrystalline silicon or aluminum, or there is no signal wiring at all, only an oxide protective film.

1μ以下の拡散深さでシート抵抗6〜9 KΩ/口以上
の低抗素子では、この現象が顕著で、抵抗値が数%から
数10%変動することがあった。However, in the conventional structure shown in Figure 4, there is a depletion layer on the surface of the low resistance element due to charges accumulated at the interface between the diffusion surface of the low resistance element and the oxide film and an electric field from the signal wiring passing over the low resistance element. will occur. This depletion layer works to increase the resistance value of the low resistance element. When the thickness of this depletion layer reaches a level that cannot be ignored with respect to the diffusion depth of the low resistance element, the value of the low resistance element will vary greatly. This phenomenon is noticeable in low-resistance elements formed by ion implantation with a diffusion depth of 1 μm or less and a sheet resistance of 6 to 9 KΩ/hole or more, and the resistance value sometimes fluctuates from several percent to several tens of percent.

ため、不純物イオンが多結晶シリコン上に進入した場合
、その電界により、多結晶シリコンの抵抗値が大きく変
動することがあった。Similarly, when high-resistance polycrystalline silicon is used in the structure shown in Figure 3, it is only protected by an oxide film, so when impurity ions enter the polycrystalline silicon, the electric field causes The resistance value of polycrystalline silicon sometimes fluctuated greatly.

たれていることを特徴とする。In the structure of the semiconductor device of the present invention, at least one of the diffused resistors formed by low concentration diffusion or ion implantation or the low resistance elements formed of polycrystalline silicon is covered with a low resistance conductor, and the low resistance conductor is connected to the power source. It is characterized by being kept at a constant potential.

ができるのである。According to the above configuration of the present invention, a low resistance element is formed using a conductor having a lower resistance than a low resistance element which is connected to a constant potential at least above the resistance which is reduced by tM by low concentration diffusion or ion implantation, or the high resistance polycrystalline silicon. By covering more than half of the plane area of the resistor, it blocks the ttsta field from impurity ions and nearby signal lines that cause resistance fluctuations, so the low-concentration diffused resistor and polycrystalline silicon stabilize the resistance value. It is possible to maintain it.
又、光が照射されることによる抵抗値の変動も防止する
ことができる。Further, fluctuations in resistance value due to irradiation with light can also be prevented.

図する。Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a structural diagram of a low resistance element made of polycrystalline silicon, which is the basic structure of the present invention. 2 is a low resistance element using polycrystalline silicon, and both ends thereof are led out to electrodes 4 and 6 via contacts 5 and 7. The material of the electrodes 4 and 6 is aluminum. Then, an oxide film is sandwiched on top of the polycrystalline silicon 2 to form a low resistance conductor 1, and a constant potential (low power supply potential vss
s, or a high power supply potential VDD, or an intermediate potential thereof). Note that the oxide film in the present invention is intended to be an insulating film.
この様な構造の低抗素子は次の様な利点がある。A low resistance element with such a structure has the following advantages.
まず低抵抗導体1の上部に配置される信号線、及び外界

って低抗素子は、半導体装置の動作中でもノイズにより
電流一電圧特性(即ち抵抗値)が変化することなく、安
定した精度の高い素子として使われる。First, it is possible to prevent noise from the signal line disposed above the low resistance conductor 1 and the outside world from jumping into the low resistance element. In other words, the stray capacitance that exists around the low resistance element, /
Electrical/magnetic noise transmitted from V free inductance etc.
removed by the electrostatic shielding effect of low-resistance conductors. Therefore, the low resistance element can be used as a stable and highly accurate element without changing its current-voltage characteristics (ie, resistance value) due to noise even during operation of the semiconductor device.
次に、製造工程中及び完或後に低抗素子へ外部から入り
込む+イオン、一イオンの進入を防止することができる

イオンは低抵抗導体へ引きよせる。すると、半導体装置
の電源をいれている間は、低抗素子近傍のイオン分布は
一定となり、外部イオンによる電界影響を防ぐことがで
きる。Next, it is possible to prevent positive ions and negative ions from entering the low resistance element from the outside during and after the manufacturing process. In other words, ions that are charged to the positive side of the potential of the low-resistance conductor are repelled and away from the low-resistance element, while ions that are charged to one side are attracted to the low-resistance conductor. Then, while the semiconductor device is powered on, the ion distribution in the vicinity of the low resistance element becomes constant, and it is possible to prevent the influence of the electric field due to external ions.
よって経年変化により抵抗値が変動することを防止する
ことが可能となる。Therefore, it is possible to prevent the resistance value from changing due to aging.
さらに低抵抗導体は、外部から低抗素子へ照射される光
を遮断することが可能である。高抵抗多粘晶シリコン抵
抗は半導体である為、可視光、赤外線、紫外線等の光エ
ネルギーにより、電子エネルギーが遷移し、結果的に低
抗素子としての特性が変化してしまう。そこで低抵抗導
体という物理的保護材で覆うことにより上記の様な問題
点はなくなり安定した低抗素子となる。Furthermore, the low-resistance conductor can block light irradiated from the outside to the low-resistance element. Since a high-resistance multiviscosity silicon resistor is a semiconductor, its electronic energy changes due to light energy such as visible light, infrared rays, and ultraviolet rays, resulting in changes in its characteristics as a low-resistance element. Therefore, by covering it with a physical protective material such as a low resistance conductor, the above-mentioned problems can be eliminated and a stable low resistance element can be obtained.
以上、外界からの影響で低抗素子特性が変動することを
防止する利点をあげてきたが、反対に低抗素子自体から
発生するノイズ、電界・磁界を周囲へおよぼさないとい
う利点もある。とくに高速で動作する回路の場合、低抗
素子を流れる電荷も急激に変動する為、熱雑音を大きく
なり、この低抗素子から放出される不要幅射は無視でき
なくなり、この様は場合、有効である。Above, we have mentioned the advantage of preventing the characteristics of the low resistance element from changing due to the influence of the outside world, but on the other hand, there is also the advantage of preventing the noise, electric field, and magnetic field generated from the low resistance element itself from being spread to the surrounding area. . Particularly in the case of circuits that operate at high speeds, the charge flowing through the low-resistance element also fluctuates rapidly, increasing thermal noise and making it impossible to ignore unnecessary radiation emitted from the low-resistance element. It is.

The present invention has the same effect on semiconductors and semiconductor-metallic compounds.

その中から低抗素子の構造に関する応用例に焦点を絞り
、実施例をあげてゆく。Among them, we will focus on application examples related to the structure of low resistance elements and give examples.

安定性、高猜度性、信頼性がさらに高まる。FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a polycrystalline silicon resistor of the present invention formed on a selective oxide film (hereinafter referred to as LOCOS) formed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate. A LOCOS 53 is formed on a substrate 55, and a polycrystalline silicon resistor 50 is formed thereon through oxidation 119!52. Further, the resistor 50 is covered with an aluminum conductor 51 sandwiching oxide 11156, and a power supply VSS 54 is connected to the aluminum conductor 51. LOC
The advantage of forming a low resistance element on top of the OS is that the LOC
Because the OS film is thick, it is difficult to form a parasitic transistor directly under the polycrystalline silicon, and because the distance from the substrate is long, the stray capacitance between the low resistance element and the substrate is reduced. The bottle hole directly under the resistor makes it easy to prevent leaks. FIG. 5 shows that by covering with a low-resistance conductor, stability, high precision, and reliability as a low-resistance element are further improved.

A polycrystalline silicon resistor 60 is formed on the COS 64, its upper part is covered with an aluminum conductor 61, and its potential is set to VD.
Let it be D67. With this configuration, the resistor 60 is shielded from above and below by the aluminum conductor 61 maintained at VDD and the N'' stopper 65.Therefore, it has the double effect of stabilizing its characteristics as a low resistance element and increasing the withstand voltage of the transistor. In the N-channel region, exactly the same effect can be achieved by providing a P1 stopper in the P-well below the LOCOS and applying vSS to this P+ stopper and the aluminum conductor.

In order to further enhance the shielding effect of the present invention, it is desirable to form the shield material at the same height (layer) as the low resistance element. Therefore, polycrystalline silicon 77 is placed around the polycrystalline silicon low resistance element 70, and V
An aluminum conductor 75 connected to SS is formed, and contacts 76 and 78 are provided between the aluminum conductor 75 and the polycrystalline silicon 77 as much as possible. By doing so, the resistance value of the polycrystalline silicon 70 is lowered, and a shielding effect is exhibited for the low resistance conductor. In the figure, reference numerals 73 and 74 indicate aluminum electrode lines in the same layer as the aluminum conductor 75 connected to the polycrystalline silicon 70 via contacts 71 and 72.

より一層向上する。FIG. 8 is a structural diagram in which a shield layer is formed below a low resistance element. An oxide film 86 is sandwiched over a semiconductor substrate 83, a conductor 82 is formed, and the potential is set to VSS85. This conductor 8
2 is usually made of first polycrystalline silicon. A low-resistance element 80 made of second polycrystalline silicon is formed with the oxide film sandwiched therebetween, and an aluminum conductor 81 , which is connected to the potential VSS 84 , covers the upper part of the low-resistance element 80 , sandwiching the oxide film therebetween. With this structure, since the low resistance element 80 is shielded from its upper and lower layers, a stable low resistance element can be obtained, which is highly effective. Here, since the first polycrystalline silicon has a higher resistance than aluminum, it goes without saying that the more contacts for connecting the first polycrystalline silicon and the vSS power supply, the greater the above effect becomes. In particular, if the conductor is polycrystalline silicon, the potential of each part of the polycrystalline silicon conductor should be made as uniform as possible by placing at least two power contacts at both ends of the polycrystalline silicon, which face each other with a low resistance element in between. If this is done, the effect on the low resistance element will be further improved.
