FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present application relates to a semiconductor manufacturing process, and particularly to a method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) device and a CMOS device manufactured by the method.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the process of manufacturing a semiconductor device, as the integrating density of a semiconductor integrated circuit becomes higher and higher, the semiconductor device becomes smaller and smaller, and the channel of a CMOS device also becomes shorter. Therefore a proportion of charge in channel depletion regions, which is shared by a source-substrate PN junction formed between a source region and a substrate of a MOS transistor and a drain-substrate PN junction formed between a drain region and the substrate of the MOS transistor, to the total charge of the channel increases, and as a result, the gate-controlling ability reduces, and Short Channel Effect (SCE) occurs.


Short Channel Effect is a phenomenon occurring when a channel length of a CMOS device becomes short, which results in many undesirable effects, such as threshold voltage shift, source-drain breakdown, drain induction barrier lower in a higher drain voltage, and so on, and even seriously results in invalid performance of the CMOS device.


An equation of threshold voltage shift is conducted according to a charge share model proposed by Yau, as follows:

Short Channel Effect can be suppressed by respectively adjusting three parameters, i.e. a capacitor Cox of oxidation layer per unit area, a width Xdm of depletion layer in channel region, and a junction depth Xj of a source-substrate PN junction and a drain-substrate PN junction in the above equation, that is, by increasing the value of Cox (or correspondingly reducing the depth tox of oxidation layer), reducing Xdm, and reducing Xj of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction. As shown in FIG. 1, as for the adjustment of Xdm, that is, the adjustment of channel doping concentration Nb, in a conventional method, a buried-layer heavily doping is performed under a channel. Since the buried-layer heavily doping is performed to the whole active region, the source region and the drain region may also be subject to this doping. Because this impurity type is opposite to the original doping type of the source and the drain, the following side effects will be caused: 1. the source and drain doping will be compensated for, thereby the parasitic resistance of the source and drain will increase; 2. profiles of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction may be affected, thereby their reverse leakage current will increase; 3. the junction depth Xj of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction may increase, thereby causing a reverse affect on SCE suppressing.

The method for manufacturing a gate-last high-K CMOS structure by self-aligning channel doping to suppress Short Channel Effect of the CMOS structure according to the present application can solve the following problems existing in the related art: 1. the source and drain doping may be compensated for, thereby the parasitic resistance of the source and drain may increase; 2. profiles of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction may be affected, thereby the reverse leakage current may increase; 3. the junction depth Xj of a source-substrate PN junction and a drain-substrate PN junction may be increased, thereby causing a reverse affect on SCE suppressing. However, the present application realizes a self-aligned channel doping of a CMOS device, a heavily doped buried-layer under the channel is formed whereas the source and drain region are not affected, thereby Short Channel Effect is effectively suppressed and the performance of the device is improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The embodiments of the present application will be further explained with reference to the accompanying drawings in FIGS. 2-18.


A First Embodiment

The first embodiment illustrates the method for manufacturing a gate-last high-K CMOS structure by self-aligning channel doping to suppress Short Channel Effect of the CMOS structure according to the present application.


Firstly, a CMOS structure 1 is formed on a Si substrate by a gate-last high-K metal-gate (HKMG) process and comprises a first transistor 110 and a second transistor 120, wherein the substrate is provided as a P-type Si substrate.


Further, the first transistor 110 is provided as a NMOS transistor, and the second transistor 120 is provided as a PMOS transistor.



FIG. 2 is a structural diagram showing a CMOS structure formed after step a in the method for manufacturing a gate-last high-K CMOS structure by self-aligning channel doping to suppress Short Channel Effect of the CMOS structure is finished, according to the present application. Referring to FIG. 2, step a: dummy gates in a first transistor gate recess 1130 of the first transistor 110 device and a second transistor gate recess 1230 of the second transistor 120 device are removed.


In the step a, an etching process is performed, so as to remove the dummy gates from the first transistor gate recess 1130 and the second transistor gate recess 1230.


Further, thin oxidation layers are reserved during the removal of the dummy gates from the first transistor gate recess 1130 and the second transistor gate recess 1230 in the step a, that is, a thin oxidation layer 1131 located at the bottom of the first transistor gate recess 1130 and a thin oxidation layer 1231 located at the bottom of the second transistor gate recess 1230 are reserved.


Step b: a photo resist is spin-coated on the first transistor 110 and the second transistor 120, so as to fill the first transistor gate recess 1130 and the second transistor gate recess 1230.



FIG. 3 is a structural diagram showing a CMOS structure formed after step c in the method for manufacturing a gate-last high-K CMOS structure by self-aligning channel doping to suppress Short Channel Effect of the CMOS structure is finished, according to the present application. Referring to FIG. 3, step c: a photolithography is performed, so as to remove the photo resist on the first transistor 110 device and the photo resist inside the first transistor gate recess 1130.


Step d: acceptor impurity is implanted into the first transistor gate recess 1130 (for example, in a manner of performing the implantation perpendicularly to the upper surface of the substrate 1), so that a first buried-layer heavily doped region 111 is formed under the channel of the first transistor 110. Since the first buried-layer heavily doped region 111 is formed only under the channel of the first transistor 110, the source region and the drain region are not affected, Short Channel Effect is effectively suppressed.


Further, such as B, BF2, BF, In or the like based ions are implanted as acceptor impurity, so that the first buried-layer heavily doped region 111 is formed under the NMOS channel whereas the source region and the drain region are not affected.

Referring to FIG. 4, step g: the photolithography is performed again, so as to remove the photo resist on the second transistor 120 device and the photo resist inside the second transistor gate recess 1230.


Step h: donor impurity is implanted into the second transistor gate recess 1230 (for example, in a manner of performing the implantation perpendicularly to the upper surface of the substrate 1), so that a second buried-layer heavily doped region 121 is formed under the channel of the second transistor 120. Since the second buried-layer heavily doped region 121 is formed only under the channel of the second transistor 120, the source region and the drain region are not affected, Short Channel Effect is effectively suppressed.


In the step h, such as P, As or the like based ions are implanted as the donor impurity, so that the second buried-layer heavily doped region 121 is formed under the PMOS channel whereas the source region and the drain region are not affected.


Step i: the photo resist is removed again, that is, the residual photo resist covering the first transistor 110 and the residual photo resist inside the first transistor gate recess 1130 are removed.


In the present embodiment, the process sequence of the ion implantation process steps b-e regarding the NMOS structure 110 and the ion implantation process steps f-i regarding the PMOS structure 120 can be interchanged.

Referring to FIG. 6, step k: next processes manufacturing a gate-last high-K device are performed. Since these next processes are the same as those in the related art, the description thereof is omitted.


A Second Embodiment

SCE is caused mainly in that charge in channel depletion regions are shared by a source-substrate PN junction and a drain-substrate PN junction respectively in the vicinity of the source region and the drain region under the channel, therefore, the present embodiment mainly aims at the adjustment of the vicinity of the source region and the drain region.


As shown in FIGS. 7-12, the second embodiment illustrates a method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a CMOS structure, wherein the CMOS structure 2 manufactured by a gate-last high-K metal gate process comprises a NMOS structure 201 and a PMOS structure 202, and a gate recess 205 included in the NMOS structure 201 and a gate recess 206 included in the PMOS structure 202 are respectively filled with a dummy gate. After the dummy gates are etched back, thin oxidation layers 203 and 204 respectively remain at the bottom of the gate recesses 205 and 206, as shown in FIG. 7.


The method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a CMOS structure according to the present embodiment comprises the following steps:


Firstly, a photo resist is spin-coated in the CMOS structure 2, and an exposure and development process is performed, so that the photo resist on the NMOS structure 201 region is removed, and so that a first photo resist 207 only covering the PMOS structure 202 is formed, and an angle tilt ion implantation process 208 is performed so as to bi-directionally implant acceptor impurity ions (such as B, BF2, BF, In or the like based ions by 180° angle turn, as shown in FIG. 8. Buried-layer heavily regions 209 and 210 are respectively formed in the channel of the NMOS structure 201 only in the vicinity of its source region 211 and its drain region 212, as shown in FIG. 9. Since a self-aligned doping process is employed, the source region 211 and the drain region 212 are not affected during the angle tilt ion implantation process 208.


After the first photo resist 207 is removed, the photo resist is spin-coated in the CMOS structure 2 again, and an exposure and development process is performed, so that the photo resist on the PMOS structure 202 region is removed, and so that a second photo resist 213 only covering the NMOS structure 201 is formed, and an angle tilt ion implantation process 214 is performed so as to bi-directionally implant donor impurity ions (such as P, As or the like based ions) by 180° angle turn, as shown in FIG. 10. Buried-layer heavily regions 217 and 218 are respectively formed in the channel of the PMOS structure 202 only in the vicinity of its source region 215 and its drain region 216, as shown in FIG. 11. Since the self-aligned doping process is employed, the source region 215 and the drain region 216 are not affected during the angle tilt ion implantation process 214.


Thereafter, the second photo resist 213 is removed.


In the present embodiment, the process sequence of the angled tilt ion implantation processes 208 and 214 respectively regarding the NMOS structure 201 and the PMOS structure 202 can be interchanged.


Then, Rapid Thermal Process, Spike Anneal or Flash Anneal for the CMOS structure 2 may be performed to activate the implanted ions.


Finally, the next processes manufacturing a gate-last high-K metal gate are performed so as to finish the manufacture of the CMOS device, as shown in FIG. 12. Since these next processes are the same as those in the related art, the description thereof is omitted.


A Third Embodiment

SCE is caused mainly in that the charge in channel depletion regions is shared by a source-substrate PN junction and a drain-substrate PN junction respectively in the vicinity of the source region and the drain region under the channel, and electric shift is caused substantially by the shared charge in the vicinity of the drain region under the channel. Therefore, the present embodiment mainly aims at the adjustment of the vicinity of the drain region.


As shown in FIGS. 13-18, the third embodiment illustrates a method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a CMOS structure, wherein the CMOS structure 3 manufactured by a gate-last high-K metal gate process comprises a NMOS structure 301 and a PMOS structure 302, wherein a gate recess 305 included in the NMOS structure 301 and a gate recess 306 included in the PMOS structure 302 are filled with dummy gates. After the dummy gates are etched back, thin oxidation layers 303 and 304 remain at the bottom of the gate recesses 305 and 306, as shown in FIG. 13.


The method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a CMOS structure according to the present embodiment comprises the following steps:


Firstly, a photo resist is spin-coated in the CMOS structure 3, and an exposure and development process is performed, so that the photo resist on the NMOS structure 301 region is removed, and so that a first photo resist 307 only covering the PMOS structure 302 is formed, and an angle tilt ion implantation process 308 is performed so as to implant acceptor impurity ions (such as B, BF2, BF, In or the like based ions) in one direction, as shown in FIG. 14. A buried-layer heavily region 310 is formed in the channel of the NMOS structure 301 only in the vicinity of its drain region 312, as shown in FIG. 15. Since a self-aligned doping process is employed, the source region 311 and the drain region 312 are not affected during the angle tilt ion implantation process 308.


After the first photo resist 307 is removed, the photo resist is spin-coated in the CMOS structure 3 again, and an exposure and development process is performed, so that the photo resist on the PMOS structure 302 region is removed, and so that a second photo resist 313 only covering the NMOS structure 301 is formed, and an angle tilt ion implantation process 314 is performed so as to implant donor impurity ions (such as P, As or the like based ions) in one direction, as shown in FIG. 16. A buried-layer heavily regions 318 is formed in the channel of the PMOS structure 302 only in the vicinity of its drain region 316, as shown in FIG. 17. Since a self-aligned doping process is employed, the source region 315 and the drain region 316 are affected during the angle tilt ion implantation process 314.


Thereafter, the second photo resist 313 is removed.


In the present embodiment, the process sequence of the angled tilt ion implantation processes 308 and 314 respectively regarding the NMOS structure 301 and the PMOS structure 302 can be interchanged.


Then, Rapid Thermal Process, Spike Anneal or Flash Anneal for the CMOS structure 3 may be performed to activate the implanted ions.


Finally, the next processes manufacturing a gate-last high-K metal gate are performed so as to finish the manufacture of the CMOS device, as shown in FIG. 18. Since these sequence processes are the same as those in the related art, the description thereof is omitted.


According to the above embodiments, the method for manufacturing a gate-last high-K CMOS structure by self-aligning channel doping to suppress Short Channel Effect of the CMOS structure according to the present application can solve the following problems existing in the related art: 1. the source and drain doping may be compensated for, thereby the parasitic resistance of the source and drain may increase; 2. profiles of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction may be affected, thereby the reverse leakage current may increase; 3. the junction depth Xj of the source-substrate PN junction and the drain-substrate PN junction may be increased, thereby causing a reverse affect on SCE suppressing. However, the present application realizes a self-aligned channel doping of a CMOS device, a heavily doped buried-layer under the channel is formed whereas the source and drain region are not affected, thereby Short Channel Effect is effectively suppressed and the performance of the device is improved.


According to the method for suppressing Short Channel Effect of a CMOS device of the present application, since heavily doped buried-layers in the vicinity of the source region and the drain region under the channel are formed, or a heavily doped buried-layer in the vicinity of the drain region under the channel is solely formed, a self-aligned doping process is employed, and the source and drain region are not affected, so that Short Channel Effect is effectively suppressed. The processes are simple and are easy to be achieved and operated.
