Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a field effect transistor with side wall oxidation. According to said method, isolation layers (dh, dv) of differing thicknesses are formed, in particular by the implantation of isolation layer growth-inhibitors (x) and by the subsequent thermal formation of a thermal isolation layer (5) on the surface of a semiconductor substrate (1) and on the side walls of a gate stack (GS). In particular, the reliability of a gate isolation layer (2) and a retention characteristic of the field effect transistor are substantially improved by said method.

auf einem Halbleitersubstrat 1 eine Gate-Isolationsschicht 2 und eine Gateschicht 3 stapeiförmig ausgebildet. Im Halbleitersubstrat 1 ausgebildete und an die Gate-Isolationsschicht 2 heranreichende Source- und Draingebiete S und D ergeben so- mit einen Feldeffektransistor, wie er beispielsweise in DRAM- , Flash-, usw. Speicherzellen eingesetzt wird. Zur seitlichen Isolierung bzw. zum Ausbilden von stark dotierten Source- und Draingebieten werden üblicherweise an den Seitenwänden der Gate-Isolationsschicht 2 und der Gateschicht 3 sogenannte Spacer bzw. Hilfsschichten SP verwendet. Nachteilig ist jedoch bei einem derartigen herkömmlichen Feldeffekttransistor insbesondere die bei der Gate-Isolationsschicht 2 auftretende scharfe Kante bzw. Ecke der Gateschicht 3. Genauer gesagt werden beim Anlegen von üblichen Betriebsspannungen, wie sie beispielsweise in einer Speichermatrix zum Auswählen von Zeilen und Spalten verwendet werden, aufgrund der scharfkantigen Form sehr hohe Feldstärken E zwischen der Gateschicht 3 und den Source- und Draingebieten S und D ausgebildet, wodurch sich Leckströme im Feldeffekttransistor ergeben und somit die Ladungshaltezeiten von Speicherzellen verschlechtert werden. Insbesondere ein sogenannter GIDL-Leckstrom (gate induced drain leakage) wird dadurch verursacht.on a semiconductor substrate 1, a gate insulation layer 2 and a gate layer 3 are stacked. Source and drain regions S and D formed in the semiconductor substrate 1 and approaching the gate insulation layer 2 thus result in a field effect transistor as used, for example, in DRAM, flash, etc. memory cells. So-called spacers or auxiliary layers SP are usually used on the side walls of the gate insulation layer 2 and the gate layer 3 for lateral insulation or for forming heavily doped source and drain regions. However, the disadvantage of such a conventional field effect transistor is, in particular, the sharp edge or corner of the gate layer 3 that occurs in the gate insulation layer 2. More specifically, when applying normal operating voltages, such as those used in a memory matrix for selecting rows and columns, Due to the sharp-edged shape, very high field strengths E are formed between the gate layer 3 and the source and drain regions S and D, as a result of which leakage currents result in the field effect transistor and thus the charge holding times of memory cells are deteriorated. In particular, this causes a so-called GIDL leakage current (gate induced drain leakage).
Zur Vermeidung von derartigen Leckströmen, die sich insbeson- dere aus den hohen Feldstärken E an den Kanten der Gateschicht 3 ergeben, wird üblicherweise eine sogenannte Seiten- wandoxidation durchgeführt, wodurch im wesentlichen die scharfen Kanten bzw. Ecken der Gateschicht 3 abgerundet werden und folglich die Feldstärken E vereinheitlicht bzw. ver- ringert werden.To avoid such leakage currents, which result in particular from the high field strengths E at the edges of the gate layer 3, a so-called sidewall oxidation is usually carried out, which essentially rounds off the sharp edges or corners of the gate layer 3 and consequently the Field strengths E are standardized or reduced.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Feldeffekttransistors mit Seitenwand- oxidation zu schaffen, bei dem auf einfache und kostengünstige Weise Feldeffekttransistoren mit hervorragenden Ladungs- halteeigenschaften ausgebildet werden können.The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a method for producing a field-effect transistor with sidewall oxidation, in which field-effect transistors with excellent charge-holding properties can be formed in a simple and inexpensive manner.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die Maßnahmen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the measures of claim 1.
Insbesondere durch das Implantieren von Isolationsschicht- Wachstumshemmern in die Oberfläche des Halbleitersubstrats bzw. des Gate-Stapels und ein nachfolgendes thermisches Ausbilden einer Thermo-Isolationsschicht , erhält man einen selbstjustierenden Prozeß, bei dem auf besonders einfache und kostengünstige Weise eine starke Seitenwandoxidation sowie eine schwache Oxidation der Halbleitersubstratoberfläche er- folgt.In particular, by implanting insulation layer growth inhibitors into the surface of the semiconductor substrate or the gate stack and subsequently thermally forming a thermal insulation layer, a self-adjusting process is obtained in which strong side wall oxidation and weak oxidation are carried out in a particularly simple and inexpensive manner of the semiconductor substrate surface takes place.
Vorzugsweise wird als Isolationsschicht-Wachstumshemmer N, N2 oder ein Nitrid in die Oberfläche des Halbleitersubstrats bzw. des Gate-Stapels eingebaut. Da derartige Implantations- Stoffe bereits in Standardprozessen implementiert sind, kann das Herstellungsverfahren ohne zusätzlichen Mehraufwand realisiert werden.N, N 2 or a nitride is preferably incorporated as an insulation layer growth inhibitor into the surface of the semiconductor substrate or of the gate stack. Since such implant materials are already implemented in standard processes, the manufacturing process can be implemented without additional effort.
Das Implantieren der Isolationsschicht-Wachstumshemmer wird vorzugsweise senkrecht zur Oberfläche des Halbleitersubstrats durchgeführt, wodurch man eine gleichmäßig dicke Isolationsschicht an den Seitenwänden des Gate-Stapels erhält. Auf diese Weise werden sowohl source- als auch drainseitig sogenannte Vogelschnäbel bzw. birds peaks ausgebildet, wodurch sich die elektrischen Feldstärken wesentlich verringern bzw. vereinheitlichen lassen.
Das Implantieren der Isolationsschicht-Wachstumshemmer kann jedoch auch schräg zur Oberfläche des Halbleitersubstrats erfolgen, wodurch lediglich eine Seitenwand des Gate-Stapels einer starken Seitenwandoxidation ausgesetzt ist und die wei- tere Seitenwand eine relativ geringe Oxidation erfährt. Auf diese Weise kann selektiv ein lediglich auf Source- oder Drainseite auftretender Leckstrom gezielt verringert werden.The implantation of the insulation layer growth inhibitor is preferably carried out perpendicular to the surface of the semiconductor substrate, as a result of which a uniformly thick insulation layer is obtained on the side walls of the gate stack. In this way, so-called bird beaks or birds peaks are formed both on the source and on the drain side, as a result of which the electric field strengths can be significantly reduced or standardized. However, the insulation layer growth inhibitors can also be implanted obliquely to the surface of the semiconductor substrate, as a result of which only one side wall of the gate stack is exposed to strong side wall oxidation and the other side wall undergoes relatively little oxidation. In this way, a leakage current that occurs only on the source or drain side can be selectively reduced.
Ferner kann eine schwach dotierte Source- und Drainimplanta- tion vor oder nach der Implantation der Isolationsschicht -Furthermore, a weakly doped source and drain implantation before or after the implantation of the insulation layer -
Wachstumshemmer durchgeführt werden, wodurch sich eine optimale Anpassung an einen jeweiligen Prozeß ergibt. In gleicher Weise kann eine Gate-Isolationsschicht nur zum Teil entfernt werden und als Rest-Isolationsschicht auf der Halbleitersub- stratoberflache verbleiben, wodurch sich wiederum eine optimale Anpassung an bereits existierende Herstellungsprozesse ergibt und insbesondere die Realisierung eines sogenannten eingebetteten bzw. embedded Prozesses ermöglicht wird.Growth inhibitors are carried out, which results in an optimal adaptation to a particular process. In the same way, a gate insulation layer can only be partially removed and remain as a residual insulation layer on the semiconductor substrate surface, which in turn results in an optimal adaptation to existing manufacturing processes and in particular enables the implementation of a so-called embedded or embedded process.
In den weiteren Unteransprüchen sind weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous refinements of the invention are characterized in the further subclaims.
