Abstract

The invention provides a planarization method for a back gate process of an MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) device and a structure thereof. In the back gate process of the MOS device, a CMP (chemical mechanical planarization) process is utilized for planarization of an interlay dielectric layer, and an etching technology is utilized to remove a hard masking layer on a false gate stacking layer, so that the purpose of accurately controlling the heights of a false gate and a metal gate is achieved. In addition, the MOS device forms T-shaped stacking of the gates, and the length of the gate at the upper part is more than that of the gate at the lower part, so that the filling space of the metal gate material in a gate groove is enlarged so as to be beneficial to reducing the resistance of the metal gate.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor design and manufacturing, in particular to a planarization method used in a gate last process and a device structure thereof. Background technique [0002] With the reduction of the size of semiconductor devices, especially in the 22nm and below technology generation, MOS device gate engineering research with high-k gate dielectric / metal gate technology as the core is the most representative core process. At present, research on high-k gate dielectric / metal gate technology can be divided into front gate process (Gate first) and replacement gate or gate last process (Replacement gate or Gate last). A significant advantage of the gate last process is that the gate does not require Withstand high annealing temperatures. [0003] In the gate last process, the planarization of the gate structure is one of the indispensable steps, and the prior art is usually implemented by chemical mechanical polishing (...
