Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, due to the shallow junction depth of the doped layer of the LDD, for example, in the 65nm process, the junction depth of the LDD can reach 30nm or even smaller. When operating with a probe, the probe can easily penetrate the LDD doped layer. like figure 1 As shown, since the probe 104 has been in contact with the semiconductor substrate 100 below the LDD doped layer 102, the measurement result will be inaccurate and the repeatability will be poor.

Abstract

A method for improving measurement accuracy of the square resistance of a lightly doped drain (LDD) doped layer comprises the following steps: providing a semiconductor substrate; forming a first doped layer with first doping ions and a second doped layer with second doping ions in the semiconductor substrate, wherein the first doped layer is positioned below the second doped layer and contacts with the second doped layer; annealing the semiconductor substrate with the first doped layer and the second doped layer; and measuring the square resistance of the second doped layer. The invention also provides a structure for improving measurement accuracy of the square resistance of the LDD doped layer. The method can reduce the influence of the substrate on measurement results.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method and structure for improving the measurement accuracy of the sheet resistance (Sheet Resistivity) of a lightly doped drain (Light Doped Drain, LDD) doped layer. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor (CMOS) technology, the integration level is getting higher and higher, the line width of the gate is getting smaller and smaller, and the length of the conductive channel under the gate structure is also continuously decreasing. [0003] In order to suppress the leakage current between the source and the drain due to the reduction of the length of the conductive channel, the LDD implantation process is introduced, that is, before the heavy doping of the source and the drain, ions with a larger molecular weight are first used Perform a shallow junction implant. [0004] In the LDD...
