摘要:
A gate insulating film 4, two polysilicon films 5 and 7, and a silicon nitride film 9 are successively laminated on a semiconductor substrate 1 in this order. Each of the polysilicon films 5 and 7 contains phosphorus. The polysilicon film 5 has a region having a phosphorus concentration higher than that of the polysilicon film 7. Gate electrodes 10n, 10p, 40n, and 40p are formed on the gate insulating film 4 by partly etching the polysilicon films 5 and 7 and the silicon nitride film 9. In this case, the etching rate of the region of the polysilicon film 5, having a phosphorus concentration higher than that of the polysilicon film 7, is higher than that of the polysilicon film 7. Due to this difference, notches are formed at the bottom portions on side surfaces of respective gate electrodes 10p, 40n, and 40p.
摘要:
A semiconductor device which provides for reduction of a gate length and a resistance of a gate electrode of a MOS transistor, and a manufacturing method thereof, are provided. In forming a gate electrode (4), ions are implanted at a dose of 6null1015/cm2 or larger and annealing is performed, so that an upper portion of the gate electrode (4) expands. A silicide layer (4b) formed in the upper portion of the gate electrode (4) has a shape with an upper portion thereof being wider than a bottom portion thereof in section taken along a channel length direction. On the other hand, a polysilicon layer 4a has a shape with upper and bottom portions thereof having the substantially same width in section taken along a channel length direction, like the conventional structure. Thus, even when the width of the polysilicon layer (4a) is reduced to reduce a gate length, the width of the silicide layer (4b) is kept larger than the gate length, to prevent agglomeration of silicide in the silicide layer (4b).

摘要:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is provided which can suppress leakage current increases by making into silicide. Impurity that suppresses silicide formation reaction (suppression impurity), such as germanium, is introduced into source/drain regions (16, 36) from their upper surfaces. In the source/drain regions (16, 36), a region shallower than a region where the suppression impurity is distributed (50) is made into silicide, so that a silicide film (51) is formed in the source/drain regions (16, 36). Thus, by making the region shallower than the region (50) into silicide, it is possible to suppress that silicide formation reaction extends to the underside of the region to be made into silicide. This enables to reduce the junction leakage between the source/drain regions (16, 36) and a well region.

A gate insulating film (13) and a gate electrode (14) of non-single crystalline silicon for forming an nMOS transistor are provided on a silicon substrate (10). Using the gate electrode (14) as a mask, n-type dopants having a relatively large mass number (70 or more) such as As ions or Sb ions are implanted, to form a source/drain region of the nMOS transistor, whereby the gate electrode (14) is amorphized. Subsequently, a silicon oxide film (40) is provided to cover the gate electrode (14), at a temperature which is less than the one at which recrystallization of the gate electrode (14) occurs. Thereafter, thermal processing is performed at a temperature of about 1000null C., whereby high compressive residual stress is exerted on the gate electrode (14), and high tensile stress is applied to a channel region under the gate electrode (14). As a result, carrier mobility of the nMOS transistor is enhanced.
摘要:
Activation of impurities is achieved without involving creation of a crystal defect or deformation by using phonon absorption. A laser beam (42) having a wavelength in a range of 16 to 17 nullm is irradiated onto silicon, to cause phonon absorption. Before an energy supplied from the laser beam (42) diffuses around a portion which is irradiated with the laser beam (42), solid phase epitaxy in the portion finishes. Accordingly, crystallization occurs only in the portion which is irradiated with the laser beam (42), and does not occur in a portion which is not irradiated with the laser beam (42). Hence, heat is not excessively absorbed. Also, local phase change such as melting and solidification is not caused.
