Claims
- 1. A method of manufacturing a Bi-CMOS semiconductors integrated circuit device including a bipolar transistor region in a silicon semiconductor substrate, comprising the steps of:
- (a) preparing a silicon substrate having a P-type base region formed in an N-type collector region;
- (b) forming a thick silicon oxide layer over the surface of said bipolar transistor region;
- (c) selectively removing said silicon oxide layer to form a first window exposing a part of said collector region and a second window exposing a part of said base region;
- (d) diffusing phosphorous atoms into said base region and said collector region through said first and second windows under a temperature of from 900.degree. C. to 1000.degree. C. to form an emitter region in said base region and a collector contact in said collector region;
- (e) subjecting the structure obtained by the step (d) to an oxidation process in a wet oxygen atmosphere of 940.degree. C..+-.20.degree. C. to form thin silicon oxide films in said windows, whereby said thin oxide film on said emitter region invades said emitter region to accommodate said phosphorous atoms;
- (f) selecting removing a portion of said thin oxide film to form a third window exposing a surface of said emitter region before a gate oxide layer is formed on said silicon substrate; and
- (g) subjecting the structure obtained by the step (f) to an impurity drive-in process to rediffuse said phosphorous atoms contained in the remaining thin oxide film into said emitter region, whereby the PN junction plane between said base and emitter regions is flattened.
- 2. A method according to claim 1, wherein said (g) is carried out under a temperature of at least 950.degree. C.
- 3. A method of manufacturing a Bi-CMOS semiconductor integrated circuit device including bipolar transistors and P- and N-type MOS FETs form in a silicon semiconductor substrate, comprising the steps of:
- (a) preparing a silicon substrate of P conductivity type having an epitaxial layer having a first region and a second region electrically isolated from said first region, said first region having a P well region, a P-type source region and a P-type drain region, said second region having a P-type base region formed in said epitaxial layer;
- (b) forming a thermally grown thick silicon oxide layer on the surface of the structure obtained by the step (a);
- (c) selectively removing said thick silicon oxide layer to form first and second windows exposing a surface of said P well region, a third window exposing a surface of said epitaxial layer in said second region, and a fourth window exposing a surface of said base region;
- (d) diffusing phosphorous atoms into said epitaxial layer and said base region through said first, second, third and fourth windows under a temperature of from 900.degree. C. to 1000.degree. C. to form an N-type source region and an N-type drain region in said P well region, and an emitter region in said base region;
- (e) oxidizing the structure obtained by the step (d) in a wet oxygen atmosphere of temperature of 940.degree. C..+-.20.degree. C. to form think silicon oxide layers in said windows, whereby said thin oxide film invades said emitter region to contain said phosphorous atoms therein;
- (f) selectively removing said thin silicon oxide layer and said thick silicon oxide layer to form a fifth window exposing a surface of said P well between said N-type source and drain regions, a sixth window exposing a surface of said epitaxial layer between P-type source and drain regions, and a seventh window exposing a surface of said emitter region; and
- (g) subjecting the structure obtained by the step (f) to an impurity drive-in process to form gate oxide layers in said fifth and sixth windows to rediffuse said phosphorous atoms contained in the remaining thin oxide layer into said emitter region, whereby the PN junction plane between said base and emitter regions is flattened.
- 4. A method according to claim 3, wherein said step (g) is carried out under a temperature of at least 950.degree. C.
