Description
本發明係關於半導體元件,更特別關於FinFET元件與其形成方法。
半導體積體電路(IC)產業快速成長,新一代的IC具有較大的功能密度(比如固定晶片面積中的內連線元件數目),與較小的尺寸(比如製程形成的最小構件或連線)。製程尺寸縮小往往有利於增加製程效率並降低相關成本,但亦增加製程複雜度。然而製程尺寸縮小的優點顯而易見,因此需要更小的IC製程。
舉例來說,當半導體產業採用奈米技術製程節點以達成更高元件密度、更高效能、與更低成本時,將同時面臨製作與設計的挑戰,這造就三維(3D)元件如鰭狀場效電晶體(FinFET)的發展。然而FinFET元件的現有形成方法無法讓其通道區具有一致的臨界電壓。綜上所述,雖然現存的FinFET元件與其製作方法適用於特定目的,但無法完全符合所有需求。

本發明一實施例提供一種FinFET元件,包括:半導體基板;鰭狀結構,包括一或多個鰭狀物形成於半導體基板上;隔離材料,形成於鰭狀物之間;介電層,形成於部份鰭狀結構上;閘極結構,形成於介電層上;以及多個閘極間隔物形成於閘極結構的側壁上,其中閘極結構具有縱向階梯形狀。
本發明一實施例提供一種FinFET元件的形成方法,包括:提供基板,基板包括具有多個鰭狀物的鰭狀結構,以及淺溝槽隔離結構位於鰭狀結構的鰭狀物之間;形成第一閘極結構於鰭狀結構上;形成多個第一閘極間隔物於第一閘極結構的側壁上;移除部份第一閘極間隔物,並保留部分第一閘極間隔物於鰭狀結構與第一閘極結構交會的角落中;形成第二閘極間隔物於第一閘極結構的側壁上;形成介電層於鰭狀結構、第一閘極結構、與第二閘極間隔物上;移除第一閘極結構與部份第一閘極間隔物,以露出第二閘極間隔物的側壁;以及形成第二閘極結構於一區域中的鰭狀結構上,其中區域係第一閘極結構與部份第一閘極間隔物被移除的位置。

如第1與2至11圖所示,方法100將搭配FinFET元件
200進行說明。第1圖係本發明多種實施例中,製作積體電路元件之方法100的流程圖。在此實施例中,方法100係用以製作包含FinFET元件的積體電路元件。方法100之起始步驟102提供基板。在步驟104中,形成鰭狀結構於基板上。鰭狀結構的形成方法包括圖案化遮罩層、以遮罩層蝕刻半導體基板以定義鰭狀結構、以及形成淺溝槽隔離(STI)結構於鰭狀結構的每一鰭狀物之間。STI結構的形成方法包括沉積介電材料於鰭狀結構上,以及回蝕刻介電層以露出鰭狀結構的側壁。在形成鰭狀結構的過程中,可將鍺、碳化物、或任何合適材料佈植至鰭狀結構,以形成井區、輕掺雜源極/汲極(LDD)區、與重掺雜源極/汲極(HDD)區於鰭狀結構中。接著進行步驟106,形成絕緣層於鰭狀結構上、形成虛置閘極結構於絕緣層上、以及形成虛置閘極間隔物於虛置閘極結構的側壁上。絕緣層可橫越鰭狀結構。接著進行步驟108,實質上移除虛置閘極間隔物,並保留虛置閘極間隔物於鰭狀結構的核心(鰭狀結構與虛置閘極結構接觸的地方)中。接著進行步驟110,形成閘極間隔物於虛置閘極結構的側壁上,而源極與汲極(S/D)結構係形成於鰭狀結構上。接著進行步驟112,形成層間介電(ILD)層於半導體元件上。接著可進行化學機械研磨(CMP)製程,以移除多餘的介電材料並平坦化半導體元件的上表面。接著進行步驟114,移除虛置閘極結構、核心中的虛置閘極間隔物、以及絕緣材料。接著進行步驟116,形成絕緣材料於鰭狀結構上且位於閘極間隔物之間,並形成閘極結構於絕緣層上。上述絕緣材料的形成方法可為熱氧化鰭狀結構或沉積介電材料。閘極結構橫越鰭狀結構,並分隔
S/D結構。方法100接著進行步驟118,完成製作積體電路元件。在方法之前、之中、與之後可進行額外步驟,而其他實施例的方法可省略或以其他步驟取代上述步驟。依據第1圖之方法100,可形成多種實施例之積體電路元件如下述。
第2A、2B、2C、及3A至11A圖係依據第1圖之方法製作一實施例之半導體元件的製程透視圖。第3B至11B圖係分別對應第3A至11A圖之半導體元件的上視圖。第3C至11C、3D至11D、及3E至11E圖係分別對應第3A至11A圖之半導體元件的剖視圖。FinFET元件200可包含於微處理器、記憶單元、及/或其他積體電路元件。必需注意的是,已簡化第2至11圖以利了解本發明概念。FinFET元件200中可具有額外結構,而其他實施例之FinFET元件200可省略或置換下述某些結構。
如第2A圖所示,提供基板(比如晶圓)210。基板210可為基體基板,比如半導體元素如結晶結構的矽或鍺,半導體化合物如矽鍺合金、碳化矽、砷化鎵、磷化鎵、磷化銦、砷化銦、及/或銻化銦,或上述之組合。在另一實施例中,基板210包含絕緣層上矽(SOI)基板。SOI基板的製作方法可為佈植氧隔離(SIMOX)、晶圓接合、及/或其他合適方法。
如第2B圖所示,形成鰭狀結構212於基板210中。鰭狀結構212包含多個鰭狀物,其形成方法可為任何合適製程,比如微影與蝕刻製程。舉例來說,此實施例中的鰭狀結構212之形成方法為曝光光阻層、曝光後烘烤光阻層、以及顯影光阻層以圖案化光阻層。光阻層的圖案化方法包含塗佈光阻、軟烘烤、對準光罩、曝光圖案、曝光後烘烤、顯影光阻、與硬
烘烤。上述圖案化步驟可置換其他合適方法,比如無光罩微影、電子束直寫、離子束直寫、與分子壓印。接著可採用圖案化之光阻層進行蝕刻製程,蝕刻基板210以形成鰭狀結構212。採用圖案化之光阻層的蝕刻製程,可定義FinFET元件200中欲蝕刻的區域並保護其他區域。蝕刻製程可為濕蝕刻、乾蝕刻、或上述之組合。鰭狀結構212的形成方法可為蝕刻製程,比如反應性離子蝕刻(RIE)及/或其他合適製程。在一實施例中,用以蝕刻基板210的乾蝕刻製程所用的化學品包括含氟氣體。在又一實施例中,乾蝕刻的化學品包含四氟化碳、六氟化硫、或三氟化氮。在另一實施例中,鰭狀結構212的形成方法為雙圖案化微影(DPL)製程。DPL係將圖案分成兩個交錯的圖案以形成圖案於基板上的方法。DPL可增加結構(如鰭狀物)的密度。DPL包含雙重曝光(採用雙重光罩組)。鰭狀結構212可佈植有材料如鍺、碳化物、或任何合適材料,以形成井區於其中。
如第2B圖所示,形成STI結構214於鰭狀結構212的每一鰭狀物之間。STI結構214的形成方法包含以任何合適製程形成介電層。STI結構214可為不同介電材料形成的多層結構。在此實施例中,STI結構214包含任何合適製程形成的介電材料如氧化矽。在多種實施例中,氧化矽的形成方法可為乾式或濕式熱氧化、物理氣相沉積(PVD)、原子層沉積(ALD)、高密度電漿CVD(HDPCVD)、其他合適方法、及/或上述之組合。舉例來說,CVD製程可採用化學品如六氯乙矽烷(Si2Cl6,HCD)、二氯矽烷(SiH2Cl2,DCS)、雙(第三丁基胺基)矽烷(C8H22N2Si,BTBAS)、或乙矽烷(Si2H6,DS)。STI結構214可具有多層結構,
比如熱氧化襯墊層與形成其上的氧化矽層或氮化矽層。
如第2C圖所示,使鰭狀結構212之鰭狀物之間的STI結構214其介電材料凹陷化,以露出鰭狀結構212的側壁。使STI結構214的介電材料凹陷化的方法可為蝕刻製程,比如濕蝕刻製程、乾蝕刻製程、或上述之組合。在一實施例中,用以蝕刻STI結構的介電材料之濕蝕刻製程採用氫氟酸或緩衝氫氟酸。

如第11A至11E圖所示,進行平坦化製程於FinFET元件200上。在一實施例中,平坦化製程包括化學機械研磨(CMP),可移除多餘的閘極介電層230與閘極結構232,並露出鰭狀結構212之每一鰭狀物其實質上平坦的上表面。
第11A至11E圖即FinFET元件200。在此實施例中,FinFET元件200包含基板210,而基板210具有鰭狀結構212形成其中。鰭狀結構212之每一鰭狀物之間隔有STI結構214。鰭狀
結構212的每一鰭狀物包含第二絕緣層228,其橫越中心區中的每一鰭狀物。閘極介電層230形成於第二絕緣層228上,而閘極結構232橫越每一鰭狀物並形成於閘極介電層230上。第二閘極間隔物222位於閘極結構232的側壁上。閘極間隔物222並非線狀,並具有與鰭狀結構212相鄰的縱向階梯形狀,可讓閘極結構232具有較大的有效閘極長度。閘極結構232分隔S/D結構224,並位於通道區上。鰭狀結構212的每一鰭狀物可具有井區、LDD區、與HDD區。閘極介電層230在鰭狀結構212之一鰭狀物的中心線(沿著線段c-c)外第一距離(沿著線段d-d)具有寬度w1,在鰭狀結構212之一鰭狀物的中心線(沿著線段c-c)外第二距離(沿著線段e-e)具有寬度w2,第二距離大於第一距離,且寬度w1大於寬度w2。寬度w1比寬度w2大至少3%。在此實施例中,寬度w1比寬度w2大了約3%至約10%。此外,閘極結構232具有縱向的階梯形狀,其包含多種寬度。閘極結構232在中心線具有寬度w3,在與中心線相隔第一距離處具有寬度w4,而寬度w3小於寬度w4。寬度w4比寬度w3大至少3%。在此實施例中,寬度w4比寬度w3大了約3%至約10%。此外,閘極結構232在與中心線相隔第二距離處具有寬度w5,且寬度w5小於寬度w4。寬度w5的測量點高於寬度w4的測量點(與中心線相隔第一距離處)。寬度w4比寬度w5大至少3%。在此實施例中,寬度w4比寬度w5大了約3%至約10%。
FinFET元件200可包含後續製程形成的額外結構。舉例來說,多種接點/通孔/線路與多層內連線結構(如金屬層與層間介電層)可形成於基板210上,以連接FinFET元件200
之多種結構。上述額外結構可提供電性內連線至FinFET元件200。舉例來說,多層內連線包括垂直內連線如習知通孔或接點,與水平內連線如金屬線路。多種內連線結構可採用多種導電材料如銅、鎢、及/或矽化物。在一實施例中,鑲嵌及/或雙鑲嵌製程可用以形成有關銅的多層內連線結構。可以理解的是,FinFET元件200可包含於具有其他結構的半導體元件/積體電路中,而其他結構可為電晶體、電容、電阻、電感、保護層、接合墊、封裝、與類似物,不過已簡化上述實施例而不贅述於此。
上述方法100與FinFET元件200具有較大的有效閘極長度,因此在通道方向(沿著S/D結構224之間的鰭狀結構212之長邊)具有改良的臨界電壓。舉例來說,階梯形狀的閘極(比如較大的寬度w4)可最小化閘極角落圓潤化的現象,其有效閘極長度大於習知元件的有效閘極長度,使LDD區得以延伸至通道區,進而改善通道方向中的臨界電壓一致性。
