Description

Self-aligned metal silicate technology
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of semiconductor element technology, relate in particular to the method for a kind of making self-aligned metal silicate (salicide).
Background technology
In the technology of semiconductor integrated circuit, metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) (metal-oxide-semiconductor, MOS) transistor is a kind of epochmaking electronic component, and along with the size of semiconductor element is more and more littler, the processing step of MOS transistor also has many improvement, to produce the little and high-quality MOS transistor of volume.
Existing MOS transistor technology is to form on Semiconductor substrate after the grid structure, in the substrate of the relative both sides of grid structure, form again ldd structure (lightly doped drain, LDD).Then form sidewall (spacer) in the grid structure side, and with this grid structure and sidewall as mask, carry out the ion implantation step, in Semiconductor substrate, to form source/drain regions.And for transistorized grid, source electrode and drain electrode suitably will being electrically connected in the circuit, therefore needing to form contact plunger (contactplug) and carry out conducting.Usually the material of contact plunger is metallic conductors such as tungsten (W), copper, and so the direct conducting between the materials such as polycrystalline such as itself and grid structure, source/drain regions or monocrystalline silicon is unsatisfactory; Therefore in order to improve the ohmic contact (Ohmicontact) between metal plug and grid structure, the source/drain regions, can form a metal silicide (silicide) again on the surface of grid structure, source/drain regions usually.
Be mostly at present utilize self-aligned metal silicate (self-aligned silicide, salicide) technology forms metal silicide; That is after forming source/drain regions, form a cobalt (Co), titanium (Ti), nickel metal levels such as (Ni) again and be covered in source/drain regions and grid structure top, carry out annealing (RTA) technology that is rapidly heated then and make pasc reaction in metal level and grid structure, the source/drain regions, form the sheet resistance (sheet resistance) that metal silicide reduces source/drain regions.
Yet, form metal silicide in this mode and also can produce some problems, be exactly when forming metal silicide, metallic atom in the metal level can diffuse in the silicon substrate and the silicon that consumes in the source/drain regions is finished, not only the lattice structure in the script source/drain regions can be destroyed, even can cause the PN junction between source/drain regions and the silicon substrate and the hypotelorism of metal silicide interlayer to react with the silicon in the source/drain regions, and the part-structure of destruction part source/drain regions, especially at super shallow junction (ultra shallow junction, USJ) in the design, even can cause metal silicide directly to contact, and then cause the situation of component failure with substrate.
Please refer to Fig. 1, Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 are the existing process schematic representation of making self-aligned metal silicate.As shown in Figure 1, at first on substrate 60, form after the grid structure 66 that is constituted by gate dielectric 62 and grid 64, then carry out an ion implantation step, in substrate 60, to form ldd structure 70.Sidewall in grid structure 66 forms laying 67 and sidewall 68 subsequently, and carries out another ion implantation step, to form regions and source 72 in the substrate 60 of sidewall 68 both sides.Carry out a wet-cleaned technology then, removing the impure particle or the native oxide on grid structure 66 and regions and source 72 surfaces, and carry out one and remove aqueous vapor (degas) step and remove because of the formed unnecessary aqueous vapor of wet-cleaned technology.Subsequently, in substrate 60 surperficial sputter one metal levels 74, a nickel metal layer for example, and cover grid 64, sidewall 68 and substrate 60 surfaces.As shown in Figure 2, then carry out one and be rapidly heated that (rapid thermal anneal RTA), makes metal level 74 become metal silicide layer 76 with the partial reaction that grid 64 and regions and source 72 contact to annealing process.Utilize a selectivity Wet-type etching at last again, for example with NH 4OH/H 2O 2/ H 2O or H 2SO 4/ H 2O 2Mixed solution remove the metal level 74 that unreacted becomes metal silicide.
As mentioned above, the MOS short-channel effect (short channel effects) of being derived after dwindling because of the increase of element integrated level for fear of transistorized design, and improve the intraconnections resistance value (interconnect resistance) of integrated circuit, therefore must dwindle the junction depth (junction depth) of transistorized source electrode and drain electrode and make the transistor that contains metal silicide.Yet when the junction depth of source electrode and drain electrode dwindles, if the thickness of the metal silicide in thinning source electrode and the drain electrode then may cause too high intraconnections resistance value (interconnect resistance) and contact resistance (contact resistance); But, then may cause the hypotelorism of 76 of PN junction between source/drain regions 72 and the silicon substrate 60 and metal silicide layers and make MOS transistor bring out junction leakage (junction leakage) if keep metal silicide in source electrode and the drain electrode at certain thickness.And the employed solvent of wet-cleaned technology before carrying out the metal silicide reaction also can cause erosion to the laying between grid and sidewall, make follow-up metal silicide when reaction of carrying out, metal silicide is easier of channel region, and produces what is called " nickle silicide conducting (nickel silicide piping) effect ".
In addition, the thermal stability (thermal stability) of the metal silicide of part is not good, even before the annealing in process that also is rapidly heated, the first plated film (as-deposition) that forms in metal sputtering technology at the beginning also can be owing to the technological temperature of the PVD reative cell that produces plasma is higher, or because metal deposition before the rapid high-temperature of the jia bombardier that dewaters and form the metal silicide that is polycrystalline shape (polycrystalline) structure, that is when temperature when too high or high-temperature process time is long slightly, the phenomenon of agglomerateization (agglomeration) will take place in metal silicide, become the dough that a piece does not link, cause the rising of sheet resistance (sheet resistance), even in follow-up high-temperature technology, change, consume too much silicon, and on shallow junction, cause the phenomenon of point prominent (spiking) or form the structure of high resistivity (resistivity), for example the nickle silicide of low-resistivity (NiSi) kenel (can be transformed into the nickel disilicide (NiSi of high resistivity approximately less than 20 μ Ω-cm) 2) kenel (about 50 μ Ω-cm).
