Definitions
- the present disclosure relates generally to the field of semiconductor technology. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor device with reduced floating body effects and methods for fabricating the same.
- SOI silicon-on-insulator
- SOI MOSFET devices today are fabricated on Semiconductor-On-Insulator (SOI) wafers rather than on bulk substrates.
- SOI wafers feature a thin semiconductor layer which is disposed over an oxide dielectric layer.
- Transistors fabricated on such wafers offer the potential of superior performance characteristics due to the thin film nature of the semiconductor substrate and the electrically insulating properties of the underlying dielectric layer.
- SOI MOSFETs may manifest superior short channel performance, near-ideal subthreshold voltage swings (which results in low off-state current leakage), and high saturation current.
- floating-body effect a phenomenon manifested as a decrease in voltage between the source and the drain regions. This effect is especially problematic for partially depleted SOI MOSFETs of the type currently used in some memory devices. Accordingly, it would be desirable to reduce the adverse effects of the floating body of SOI devices.
- the floating-body effects are normally more severe in NMOS devices than in PMOS devices, due to a higher impact ionization rate and normally higher parasitic bipolar gain.
- SOI silicon-on-insulator
- a semiconductor device with reduced floating body effects includes a substrate, a buried oxide layer disposed on the substrate, a top semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type disposed on the buried oxide layer, a source doping region of a second conductivity type in the top semiconductor layer, a drain doping region of the second conductivity type in the top semiconductor layer, a channel region between the source doping region and the drain doping region in the top semiconductor layer, a gate electrode on the channel region, and an embedded region of the first conductivity type disposed in the top semiconductor layer and directly under the channel region.
- the embedded region acts as a hole sink to alleviate or avoid floating body effects.
- the channel region is disposed within an ion well of the first conductivity type.
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type is disposed at a bottom of the ion well of the first conductivity type.
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type is adjoined to an upper surface of the buried oxide layer.
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type has a doping concentration that is greater than that of the ion well of the first conductivity type.
- the doping concentration of the embedded region of the first conductivity type ranges between 1E15 and 1E16 atoms/cm 3
- the doping concentration of the ion well of the first conductivity type ranges between 1E13 and 1E15 atoms/cm 3 .
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type has a thickness that is smaller than or equal to one third of a thickness of the top semiconductor layer.
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type is contiguous with the source doping region and the drain doping region.
- the embedded region of the first conductivity type is spaced apart from the source doping region and the drain doping region.
- a method for forming a semiconductor structure is provided.
- a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate including a substrate, a buried oxide layer disposed on the substrate, and a top semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type disposed on the buried oxide layer is prepared.
- An embedded region of the first conductivity type is formed in the top semiconductor layer.
- a gate electrode is then formed on the top semiconductor layer.
- a source doping region of a second conductivity type and a drain doping region of the second conductivity type are formed in the top semiconductor layer.

Abstract
Description
- The present disclosure relates generally to the field of semiconductor technology. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor device with reduced floating body effects and methods for fabricating the same.
- Many MOSFET devices today are fabricated on Semiconductor-On-Insulator (SOI) wafers rather than on bulk substrates. SOI wafers feature a thin semiconductor layer which is disposed over an oxide dielectric layer. Transistors fabricated on such wafers offer the potential of superior performance characteristics due to the thin film nature of the semiconductor substrate and the electrically insulating properties of the underlying dielectric layer. Hence, compared to analogous bulk devices, SOI MOSFETs may manifest superior short channel performance, near-ideal subthreshold voltage swings (which results in low off-state current leakage), and high saturation current.
- One challenge is the floating-body effect, a phenomenon manifested as a decrease in voltage between the source and the drain regions. This effect is especially problematic for partially depleted SOI MOSFETs of the type currently used in some memory devices. Accordingly, it would be desirable to reduce the adverse effects of the floating body of SOI devices. The floating-body effects are normally more severe in NMOS devices than in PMOS devices, due to a higher impact ionization rate and normally higher parasitic bipolar gain.
- It is one object of the present disclosure to provide an improved silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor device capable of reducing the floating body effects.
- According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a semiconductor device with reduced floating body effects is provided. The semiconductor device includes a substrate, a buried oxide layer disposed on the substrate, a top semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type disposed on the buried oxide layer, a source doping region of a second conductivity type in the top semiconductor layer, a drain doping region of the second conductivity type in the top semiconductor layer, a channel region between the source doping region and the drain doping region in the top semiconductor layer, a gate electrode on the channel region, and an embedded region of the first conductivity type disposed in the top semiconductor layer and directly under the channel region. The embedded region acts as a hole sink to alleviate or avoid floating body effects.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, the channel region is disposed within an ion well of the first conductivity type. According to one embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type is disposed at a bottom of the ion well of the first conductivity type.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type is adjoined to an upper surface of the buried oxide layer.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type has a doping concentration that is greater than that of the ion well of the first conductivity type. For example, the doping concentration of the embedded region of the first conductivity type ranges between 1E15 and 1E16 atoms/cm3, and the doping concentration of the ion well of the first conductivity type ranges between 1E13 and 1E15 atoms/cm3.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type has a thickness that is smaller than or equal to one third of a thickness of the top semiconductor layer.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type is contiguous with the source doping region and the drain doping region.
- According to another embodiment of the invention, the embedded region of the first conductivity type is spaced apart from the source doping region and the drain doping region.
- According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for forming a semiconductor structure is provided. A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate including a substrate, a buried oxide layer disposed on the substrate, and a top semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type disposed on the buried oxide layer is prepared. An embedded region of the first conductivity type is formed in the top semiconductor layer. A gate electrode is then formed on the top semiconductor layer. A source doping region of a second conductivity type and a drain doping region of the second conductivity type are formed in the top semiconductor layer.
