Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
[0001] This application is based upon and claims priority of Japanese Patent Application No. 2001-312410, filed on Oct. 10, 2001, the contents being incorporated herein by reference.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] 1. Field of the Invention
[0003] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and its manufacturing method, more particularly to a field-effect transistor employing therein a different semiconductor junction.
[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art
[0005] Taking the Si-CMOS structure, which is mainly well-known in the semiconductor integrated circuit as a typical example, the details will be explained.
[0006] The mobility differences between an electron and a hole due to the physical property of Si in itself affect performances of an n-channel transistor and a p-channel transistor, so that the improvements in the performance and the integration degree of CMOS semiconductor are disturbed.
[0007] In order to solve this problem, a device is invented wherein an n-channel film (Si film) and a p-channel film (SiGe film) are laminated by a heterojunction with a different semiconductor (SiGe) aiming at a performance improvement of the p-channel transistor (see, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-open No. Hei 3-280437).
[0008] In the MOSFET having the conventional semiconductor heterostructure taught in the document, carriers are injected via a pn-junction of a source and each channel. The carriers may be injected evenly to both channels.
[0009] The most holes injected flow at a channel formed on an interface of Si/SiGe, while a little thereof tends to flow at a channel formed on an interface of SiO2/Si. This phenomenon is called a parallel conduction.
[0010] This parallel conduction lowers the hole mobility of the p-MOSFET having the semiconductor heterostructure to thereby waste an increase merit of mobility by the Si/SiGe channel.
[0011] With a miniaturization of the MOSFET, which has the semiconductor heterostructure, difficult complexities of doping process may appear because of a creation of complicated doping profile preventing a short channel effect, and a variation of threshold voltage with a dispersion of impurities concentration.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0031] A different semiconductor junction involves discontinuities, which are referred as “band offset”, of a conductor and a valence band at a junction interface due to its band gap. FIG. 1 shows a band diagram of a Si/SiGe heterostructure. Preferable embodiments based on the principal of this invention will be explained, taking an operation of a p-channel in the Si, SiGe heterostructure as an instance.
[0032] -First Embodiment-
[0033] The band structure may change by a Ge concentration of the SiGe and a distortion to each film in the Si, SiGe heterostructure. When carriers are injected in a structure, which is called as “Type I” in FIG. 1, holes are accumulated at the SiGe film. The band structure is however modulated by a field-effect from a gate, so that a p-channel is also provided at an Si/SiO2 interface. This channel is the reason for the parallel conduction issue.
[0034]
FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view showing a semiconductor device of the first embodiment of the present invention.
[0035] The semiconductor device is composed of a first semiconductor film 1 and a second semiconductor film 2. The first semiconductor film 1 and the second semiconductor film 2 are laminated to have a different semiconductor junction structure. On the upper film of the first semiconductor film 1, there is patterned a specified gate electrode 6 via a gate insulation film 5. On their both sides, sidewalls (side wall protect layers) 7 are provided.
[0036] Under the sidewalls 7, a source 3 and a drain 4 as a pair of diffusion films of semiconductor-intermetallic compound are provided in both sides of the sidewalls 7 by feeding metal reaching to the first and second semiconductor films 1, 2. In the drawings, a drain formed in the first semiconductor film 1 is designated with “3a”, a source is designated with “4a”, a drain formed in the second semiconductor film 2 is designated with “3b”, and a source is designated with “4b”.
[0037] In the present embodiment, showing an example of using a channel portion 1a in the first semiconductor film 1 as an n-channel and a channel portion 2a in the second semiconductor film 2 as a p-channel, the details will be explained. When this device operates as the n-channel, a positive voltage is impressed on the gate electrode 6 and the drain 4 (drain 4a and drain 4b), respectively. An equivalent circuit under the n-channel operation is shown in FIG. 3. Impressing the gate voltage diminishes a potential energy barrier between the source 3 (source 3a and source 3b) and the channel.
[0038] This results in injecting electrons tunnellingly and thermally into the channel through a potential barrier provided with a Schottky barrier. Note that heights of the barriers against the electrons at a Schottky junction provided between the source 3a and the first semiconductor film 1, and a Schottky junction provided between the source 3b and the second semiconductor film 2 are φ ba and φ bb, respectively. Setting φ ba<φ bb allows the electrons to be injected preferentially into the channel portion 1a in the first semiconductor film 1. This results in providing the n-channel, through which the electrons move, preferentially on the interfaces of the gate insulation film 5 and the channel portion 1a in the first semiconductor film 1.
[0039] When this device operates as the p-channel, a negative voltage is impressed on the gate electrode 6 and the drain 4 (drain 4a and drain 4b), respectively. An equivalent circuit under the p-channel operation is shown in FIG. 4. Impressing the gate voltage on the gate electrode 6 and the drain 4 diminishes the potential energy barrier between the source 3 (source 3a and source 3b) and the channel.
[0040] This results in injecting holes tunnellingly and thermally into the channel through the potential barrier that is provided with the Schottky barrier. Note that heights of the barriers against the holes at the Schottky junction provided between the source 3a and the first semiconductor film 1 and the Schottky junction provided between the source 3b and the second semiconductor film 2 are φ′ ba and φ′ bb, respectively. Setting φ′ ab>φ′ bb allows the holes to be injected only into the channel portion 2a in the second semiconductor film 2. This results in proving the p-channel, through which the holes move, only on the interfaces of the channel portion 1a in the semiconductor film 1 and the channel portion 2a in the semiconductor film 2.
[0041] Such a selective carrier injection described above is made available in this device, wherein the electrons are injected into the channel portion 1a in the semiconductor film 1 of the n-channel, while the holes into the channel portion 2a in the semiconductor film 2 of the p-channel. This solves a parallel conduction issue and then realizes a drastic performance upgrade.
[0042] There is realized a FET operation by controlling with a gate field a thickness of a depletion layer region provided in the Schottky barrier that is generated through a junction between metal or semiconductor-intermetallic compound and a semiconductor.
[0043] A carrier is injected into a semiconductor film used for a channel by tunneling through the Schottky barrier, to thereby adjust the height of the Schottky barrier which is generated through the junction between the metal or the semiconductor-intermetallic compound used for the source 3 and the semiconductor film, as well as to provide a semiconductor device without doping in principle. Skipping a doping process can also dissolve a problem of dopant solid solubility in the semiconductor film, a problem of a threshold voltage variation caused by dispersion of impurities concentration, and an impact of impurities scattering.
[0044] The metal and the semiconductor-intermetallic compound can realize a higher carrier density and lower resistance by one or more figure than the semiconductor film doped to about a solid solubility limit. This enables to lower a contact resistance between the source/drain and the electrode, and the wire.
[0045] When one kind of metal can realize the Schottky barrier as the metal or the semiconductor-intermetallic compound for the source/drain, a manufacturing process can be drastically simplified.
[0046] -Second Embodiment-
[0047]
FIG. 5 is a schematic sectional view showing a semiconductor device of a second embodiment of the present invention.
[0048] This semiconductor device has the so-called SOI (Semiconductor On Insulator) structure, in which the semiconductor heterojunction is structured on an insulation substrate or a semi-insulation semiconductor substrate. A different semiconductor junction structure of a first semiconductor film 1 and a second semiconductor film 2 is patterned on a silicon substance 11 via an insulation film 12 to provide a channel portion. On the upper film of the first semiconductor film 1, there is patterned a specified gate electrode 6 via a gate insulation film 5. On their both sides, sidewalls 7 are provided.
[0049] A structure 10 of an element isolation with a LOCOS method or the like is provided on the insulation film 12. A gap between the element isolation structure 10 and the different semiconductor junction structure is filled with metal or semiconductor-intermetallic compound. There are provided a source 21 and a drain 22, which are a pair of electrode films joined on both sides of the different semiconductor junction structure.
[0050] In this device as with the first embodiment, a selective carrier injection is achieved, wherein the electrons are injected into the channel portion 1a in the semiconductor film 1 of the n-channel, while the holes into the channel portion 2a in the semiconductor film 2 of the p-channel. This solves a parallel conduction issue and realizes a drastic performance upgrade.
[0051] It is also realized by employing the SOI structure to reduce a leak current against the substrate and restrain a short channel effect.

It, however, differs in a point where the source 21 and the drain 22 are provided with two layers of different metal or semiconductor-intermetallic compound so as to conform to the different semiconductor junction structure. In this case, the source 21 is composed of sources 21a, 21b, and the drain 22 is composed of drains 22a, 22b.
