Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a semiconductor device and, more particularly, to a semiconductor device (to be referred to as a BiMOS hereinafter) on which a bipolar transistor and a MOS transistor are formed together.

2. Description of the Related Art

A BiMOS technique is used for obtaining a high-speed LSI having low power consumption, in which a logic gate, formed by combining a high-speed bipolar transistor, and a highly integrated CMOS transistor, capable of reducing power consumption, are mounted on a single chip.

In the manufacture of a conventional BiMOS LSI, the gate material of NMOS and PMOS transistors is formed using n-type polysilicon, and an npn transistor is mainly used as the bipolar transistor. For this reason, the external base electrode of the npn bipolar transistor cannot be made of the same material as that of the gate electrode of the MOS transistor. Therefore, either the gate electrode or the external base electrode must be formed in advance.

In conventional BiMOS LSI, the gate electrode is formed first. After forming the gate electrode, source and drain diffusion layers are formed by ion implantation and annealing. An external base electrode is formed, and then a base diffusion layer is formed by annealing.

However, when the gate electrode is formed in advance as described above, during the manufacture of elements, an annealing process must be performed twice for the MOS transistor. As a result, the sizes of the source and drain diffusion layers are excessively increased, and the channel width is decreased, thereby generating a short channel effect. Sufficient annealing cannot then be applied when the base diffusion layer of the bipolar transistor is formed. For this reason, the base resistance between the underlying portion of the external base electrode and an emitter diffusion layer increases, thus degrading the characteristics of the device.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an object of the present invention to provide a high-performance semiconductor device wherein electrodes of a MOS transistor and a base electrode of a bipolar transistor are made of the same kind of material, and an annealing process is performed once for the MOS transistor and twice for the bipolar transistor, thereby solving the problems of the short channel effect and the increase of the base resistance.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a method of manufacturing a high-performance semiconductor device wherein electrodes of a MOS transistor and a base electrode of a bipolar transistor are made of the same material, and an annealing process is performed once for the MOS transistor and twice for the bipolar transistor, thereby solving problems of the short channel effect and the increase of the base resistance.

In order to achieve the above objects, a semiconductor device of the present invention comprises:

a semiconductor substrate; a bipolar transistor formed on the semiconductor substrate and having a base extraction electrode; and a MOS transistor formed on the semiconductor substrate and having electrodes, the base extraction electrode of the bipolar transistor and the electrodes of the MOS transistor containing the same impurity and forming a single layer.

In order to achieve another object of the present invention, a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device of the present invention comprises the steps of:

providing a semiconductor substrate; forming a gate oxide film on the semiconductor substrate; selectively removing the gate oxide film formed on the semiconductor substrate; forming a polysilicon layer on the semiconductor substrate; doping the same kind of first impurity in a region on which a base extraction electrode of the bipolar transistor of the polysilicon layer formed on the semiconductor substrate is formed and a region in which electrodes of a MOS transistor are formed; annealing the resultant structure to form an external base region of the bipolar transistor; and doping a second impurity in a region on which a source and a drain of the MOS transistor in the semiconductor substrate are formed.

The electrodes of the MOS transistor include gate and source drain electrodes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device used as a BiMOS element according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIGS. 1A to 1H are sectional views showing steps in manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the present invention.

In the step shown in FIG. 1A, an insulating film 11 is deposited on a p-type Si semiconductor substrate 10 having a crystal plane (100). Portions in which a buried collector region and a PMOS element are to be formed are removed from the insulating film 11 by photoetching, thereby forming openings 12. In addition, n.sup.+ -type buried collector layers (for increasing the depth of an n-well) 13 are formed in the substrate 10 by diffusing solid- or gas-phase antimony (Sb) from the opening 12 or by implanting arsenic (As) or Sb ions.

In the step shown in FIG. 1B, the insulating film 11 is entirely removed, and boron (B) ions are implanted in the entire surface of the substrate 10 at an acceleration energy of 100 keV and a dose of 6 .times. 10.sup.12 cm.sup.2. Thus, first low-concentration p-type buried regions 9 for avoiding a punch-through phenomenon are formed. When anoxide film having a thickness of 50 .ANG. or more is formed on the entire surface of the substrate 10 before forming the p-type buried regions 9, contamination upon ion implantation can be prevented. By annealing the resultant structure at a temperature of 850.degree. C., damage to the substrate 10 caused by the ion implantation can be eliminated, and the implanted impurity can be activated. In addition, although the impurity is implanted in the entire surface of the first p-type buried regions 9 in this embodiment, the impurity may be selectively implanted in the regions 9. In the step in FIG. 1D to be described later, an impurity can be implanted in a second high-concentration p.sup.+ -type buried region 8 and can be spaced apart by an interval of 2 .mu.m or more from an n.sup.+ -type buried region 13, in consideration of diffusion of the impurity from the n.sup.+ -type region 13.

An n-type epitaxial layer 14 containing phosphorus (P) as an impurity having a concentration of 1 .times. 10.sup.16 /cm.sup.3 is formed on the substrate 10 by epitaxial growth. At this time, the growth temperature is, e.g., 1.130.degree. C., and the epitaxial layer 14 has a thickness of 1.2 .mu.m.

In the step shown in FIG. 1C, a mask (not shown) for implanting ions is formed by photoetching. Using this mask, P ions are implanted in a PMOS forming region of the n-type epitaxial layer 14 and an npn bipolar element forming region at an acceleration energy of 160 keV and a dose of 5 .times. 10.sup.12 /cm.sup.2, to selectively form an n-type well region 15. Subsequently, using another mask, B ions are implanted in an NMOS element forming region and a pnp bipolar transistor element forming region, at an acceleration energy of 100 keV and a dose of 6 .times. 10.sup.12 /cm.sup.2, to selectively form a p-type well region 16. The impurity concentrations of the n-type well region 15 and the p-type well region 16 are substantially equal to each other. Note that the p-type well region 16 may be formed before the n-type well region 15 is formed.

Furthermore, in the step in FIG. 1D, field oxide films 17 for isolating an MOS transistor from other MOS transistors and from a bipolar transistor are formed by selective oxidation. Each of the field oxide films 17 has a thickness of about 6,000 .ANG.. Note that, before forming the field oxide film 17, an ion implantation region 18 for preventing inversion of the field is self-aligned. After the field oxide film 17 is formed, B ions are selectively implanted in the pnp transistor forming region 8 at an acceleration energy of 1 MeV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2. A dummy gate oxide film 19, having a thickness of about 150 .ANG., is formed on the entire surface of the resultant structure by thermal oxidation. Thereafter, channel ion implantation regions 20 and 21, for adjusting the threshold value of an NMOS transistor and a PMOS transistor and preventing a punch-through phenomenon, are formed in the surfaces of the n-type well region 15 and the p-type well region 16 respectively. The channel ion implantation region 20 on the n-well region 15 side is formed by implanting B ions at an acceleration energy of 20 keV and a dose of 3 .times. 10.sup.12 /cm.sup.2 and implanting P ions at an acceleration energy of 240 keV and a dose of 2 .times. 10.sup.12 /cm.sup.2.

The channel region 21 on the p-well region 16 side is formed by implanting B ions at an acceleration energy of 20 keV and a dose of 4 .times. 10.sup.12 /cm.sup.2.

At this time, BF.sub.2 ions are selectively implanted in an npn bipolar transistor forming region (shallow base) 52 at an acceleration energy of 20 keV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.13 /cm.sup.2, and As ions are selectively implanted in a pnp bipolar transistor forming region (shallow base) 51 at an acceleration energy of 30 keV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.13 /cm.sup.2, thereby decreasing resistance between internal and external base electrode portions. This ion implantation may be performed after forming a gate oxide film to be described later. In addition, P ions are implanted in the n-type epitaxial layer 14 at an acceleration energy of 320 keV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.16 /cm.sup.2, thereby forming a deep n.sup.+ -type ion implantation region 22 connected to the buried collector layer 13. B ions are implanted in a part of the pnp transistor forming region at an acceleration energy of 320 keV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.16 /cm.sup.2, thereby forming a deep p.sup. + -type region 53 for forming a collector electrode in the aforementioned part of the pnp transistor forming region. Note that the deep n.sup.+ -type and p.sup.+ -type regions may be formed before channel ion implantation.

In addition, in the step in FIG. 1E, after entirely removing the dummy gate oxide film 19, a gate oxide film 23 having a thickness of 50 to 120 .ANG. is formed by oxidation. Note that the minimum thickness of the gate oxide film 23 is desirably 120 .ANG. or less. A first polysilicon layer 24, having a thickness of 50 to 500 .ANG., is deposited on the gate oxide film 23 by CVD (chemical vapor deposition). In this case, the deposition temperature is 610.degree. C. or more. In addition, a contact portion 54 between the first polysilicon layer 24 and the Si substrate 10 is removed using a resist mask, and the gate oxide film 23 is also removed from a corresponding portion. The contact portions 54 serve as external base electrode contacts of the npn and pnp transistors and source drain electrode contacts of the PMOS and NMOS transistors.

In the step shown in FIG. 1F, a second polysilicon layer 55 is deposited on the entire surface of the resultant structure to a thickness of 1,000 to 3,000 .ANG. at a temperature of 600.degree. C. or less. Note that a hydrogen gas may be used as a carrier gas instead of use of the temperature of 600.degree. C. or less. First polysilicon layer 24 has been omitted from FIGS. 1F-1H in order to simplify the drawings. An n-type impurity is ion-implanted at a high concentration in a region for forming the pnp and NMOS transistors in the second polysilicon layer 55. For example, As ions are implanted at an acceleration energy of 40 keV and a dose of 5 .times. 10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2. In addition, a p-type impurity is implanted at a high concentration in a region for forming the npn and PMOS transistors in the second polysilicon layer 55. For example, BF.sub.2 ions are implanted at an acceleration energy of 40 keV and a dose of 5 .times. 10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2.

Thereafter, annealing may be performed at a temperature of 900.degree. C. for 10 minutes to activate the impurity implanted in the second polysilicon layer 55 and simultaneously diffuse it in the semiconductor substrate. In addition, a silicide 56 such as MoSi.sub.2 may be deposited on the entire surface of the resultant structure by sputtering, thereby forming a polycide structure. After sputtering the MoSi.sub.2, the impurity may be implanted.

In the step shown in FIG. 1G, an SiO.sub.2 film 30 having a thickness of 2,000 .ANG. is deposited on the entire surface of the resultant structure by CVD. The SiO.sub.2 film 30 can be formed to leave it on only the npn and pnp transistor regions. Thereafter, the polycide structure is patterned to form external base electrode regions 58 and 59 of the pnp and npn transistors, gate electrode regions 49 and 50 of the PMOS and NMOS transistors, source drain electrode regions 61 and 60, and a wiring forming region. In this case, the minimum length of the gate electrode is 0.5 .mu.m or less. Thereafter, the side wall of the patterned polysilicon layer and the surface of the Si substrate are oxidized in an oxygen atmosphere to form an oxide film 33. At this time, n.sup.+ -type and p.sup.+ -type regions for forming an outer electrode, i.e. external base S regions 27 and 57 of the npn and pnp transistors and source regions 62 and 63 of the PMOS and NMOS transistors, are formed.

Furthermore, As ions are implanted in the NMOS transistor region at an acceleration energy of 60 keV and a dose of 5 .times. 10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2 to form an n.sup.+ -type source region 28 and an n.sup.+ -type drain region 29 in self-alignment with the gate electrode, and BF.sub.2 ions are implanted in the PMOS region at an acceleration energy of 60 keV and a dose of 5 .times. 10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2 to form p.sup.+ -type source and drain regions 25 and 26 in self-alignment with the gate electrode. At the same time, As ions are implanted at an acceleration energy of 60 keV and a dose of 3 .times. 10.sup.13 /cm.sup.2 to form an n.sup.- -type internal base 64 of the pnp transistor, and B ions are implanted at an acceleration energy of 15 keV and a dose of 3 .times. 10.sup.13 /cm.sup.2 to form a p.sup.- -type internal base 34 of the npn transistor.

Thereafter, in the step in FIG. 1H, an SiO.sub.2 film 35 having a thickness of 2,000 .ANG. is deposited by CVD. Portions (emitter openings) in which the emitters of the npn and pnp transistors are to be formed are selectively etched from the SiO.sub.2 film 35. Thus, the emitter openings 41 and 42 and the external base electrodes 59 and 58 can be formed in self-alignment.

Thereafter, a third polysilicon layer is deposited on the entire surface of the resultant structure to form an emitter electrode 37 of the pnp transistor, an emitter electrode 40 of the npn transistor, a source drain electrode 39 of the NMOS transistor, and a source drain electrode 38 of the PMOS transistor. In this case, this deposition is performed by LPCVD at a temperature of 600.degree. C. or less or using H.sub.2 as a carrier gas. The third polysilicon layer has a thickness of 1,000 to 4,000 .ANG..

B ions are implanted in the pnp transistor region and As ions are implanted in a region used as the npn transistor and a low-resistance wiring at an acceleration energy of 60 keV and a dose of 1 .times. 10.sup.16 /cm.sup.2. A non-implanted region can be used for a high-resistance element or for a thin-film transistor (TFT) element. When any high-resistance element is not used, a silicide such as MoSie.sub.2 or a metal can be deposited on the entire surface of the third polysilicon layer. Note that at least one element selected from Mo, W, Ti, Ta, and Co is used in the silicide or as the metal.

An insulating interlayer 43 made of SiO.sub.2, BPSG or the like is formed by normal CVD, and the reflow process is performed at a temperature of 800 to 900.degree. C. for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Then, a contact hole 36 is formed, and an Al or AlCuSi alloy layer is deposited on a multilayered structure made of barrier metals such as Al, an AlCuSi alloy, Ti, or TiN and a wiring pattern 47 made of, e.g., aluminum is formed by patterning. After the reflow process, the resultant structure is annealed at a temperature of 1,000.degree. C. to 1,100.degree. C. for 5 to 60 seconds, and a desired bipolar transistor can be formed by increasing the impurity concentration in the emitter region.

FIG. 2A is a plan view showing a conventional semiconductor device including a PMOS transistor and npn bipolar transistor, and FIG. 2B is a plan view showing a semiconductor device manufactured in the steps in FIGS. 1A to 1H according to the present invention. Referring to FIGS. 2A and 2B, reference symbol G denotes a gate electrode of the PMOS transistor; D, a drain of the PMOS transistor; B, a base electrode of the npn bipolar transistor., and E, an emitter electrode of the npn bipolar transistor. As shown in FIG. 2A, in a conventional semiconductor device, a distance of a (.mu.m) (for example, 7.5 .mu.m) from the center of a gate electrode to the boundary of an active region is required for manufacture. In a semiconductor device according to the present invention, since a drain electrode and a base electrode can be made of the same material to have a single layer, this margin is not required. As shown in FIG. 2B, the distance a can be reduced to a'=5 .mu.m, thereby reducing the element density to about 67%. Therefore, the present invention is effectively employed in a circuit having an arrangement in which the drain electrode of the PMOS transistor and the base region of the bipolar transistor are connected to each other, as shown in FIG. 2C. In addition, according to the device of the present invention, a drain capacitance C.sub.drain between the PMOS transistor and its diffusion layer, and a capacitance C.sub.cd between a base and a collector, are reduced to 40% compared with a conventional device. Therefore, the circuit speed can be increased by 10% compared with a conventional device. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1H, since the oxide film remains after formation of elements to constitute an offset structure, the IC yield can be increased by 20%.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 3, according to the present invention a p.sup.+ -type polysilicon layer is used instead of an n.sup.+ -type polysilicon layer. Therefore, a PMOS transistor having a gate length L.sub.gate of 0.5 .mu.m can be formed when the threshold voltage Vth is -0.5V.

As is apparent from the above-described embodiment, the present invention includes the following features.

The same kind of polysilicon is used in forming electrodes (including the gate electrode and source drain electrodes) of a MOS transistor and the base electrode of a bipolar transistor. A single annealing process is applied to the MOS transistor, and the annealing process is applied to the bipolar transistor twice.

An n.sup.+ -type or p.sup.+ -type region of low resistance, serving as the source or the drain region, is formed by diffusing an impurity from a third polysilicon layer, as in the emitter.

The concentration of the n-well region of an npn bipolar transistor is substantially equal to that of the n-well region of a PMOS transistor.

The concentration of the p-well region of a pnp bipolar transistor is substantially equal to that of the n-well region of an NMOS transistor.

The thickness of the first polysilicon layer is 500 .ANG. or less.

The thickness of the second polysilicon layer is 1,000 .ANG. or less.

The first polysilicon layer is formed at a temperature of 610.degree. C. or more, and the second polysilicon layer is formed at a temperature of 600.degree. C. or less.

During formation of the second polysilicon layer, an H.sub.2 gas can be used as a carrier gas for SiH.sub.4.

During the step of forming the third polysilicon layer, in which the emitter is to be formed, an H.sub.2 gas can be used as a carrier gas for SiH.sub.4 and the third polysilicon layer, formed at the same time as a high-resistance element, a thin-film transistor element or a low-resistance wiring material, is deposited at a temperature of 600.degree. C. or less.

The emitter electrode of the bipolar transistor and the source drain electrode of the MOS transistor are made of the third polysilicon layer.

A high-concentration p.sup.+ -type buried region is formed under the pnp transistor, and a low-concentration p-type region is present between this buried region and an n.sup.+ -type buried region.

According to the above-described embodiment, the external base contact resistance, which is about 1 k.OMEGA. in a conventional device, can be reduced to 20 .OMEGA., and the emitter resistance, which was about 1 k.OMEGA. in the conventional device, can be reduced to 20 .OMEGA.. The maximum threshold value f.sub.Tmax, of 10 GHz in a conventional npn bipolar transistor, can be increased to 15 GHz or more. In addition, the area of the pattern region of the npn transistor can be reduced to 1/10 or less of the conventional device, and the number of steps required for forming the bipolar transistors having the same characteristics can also be reduced to 1/10 or less. Further, a maximum voltage of 3.5V or less is applied to at least one MOS transistor during operation.

As has been described above, according to the present invention, there is provided a high-performance semiconductor device capable of preventing the short channel effect and an increase in base resistance such that the electrodes of the MOS transistor and the base electrode of the bipolar transistor are made of the same kind of material, and an annealing process is performed once for the MOS transistor and twice for the bipolar transistor.
