Abstract
The invention discloses a method for testing the diffusion of boron to metal or metallic silicide of a surface PMOS (P-channel metal oxide semiconductor) polysilicon gate. The method comprises the following steps of: preparing a first NMOS (N-channel metal oxide semiconductor) field effect transistor and a first surface PMOS field effect transistor by using the process and the parameter of a reference MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor) process; preparing a second NMOS (N-channel metal oxide semiconductor) field effect transistor and a second surface PMOS field effect transistor by adopting the MOSFET process for reducing the thermal process; and comparing the absolute value of the difference Delta VTN of threshold voltages of both the first NMOS field effect transistor and the second NMOS field effect transistor with the absolute value of the difference Delta VTP of the threshold voltages of both the first surface PMOS field effect transistor and the second surface PMOS field effect transistor, wherein if the absolute value of the Delta VTP is less than or equal to the absolute value of the Delta VTN, that no boron can diffuse to the surface PMOS field effect transistor which is prepared by adopting the reference MOSFET process is indicated, and if the absolute value of the Delta VTP is more than the absolute value of the Delta VTN, that the boron can diffuse obviously to the surface PMOS field effect transistor is indicated. The method disclosed by the invention can be used for electrically and quantitatively evaluating the influence of the diffusion of the boron of the surface PMOS polysilicon gate prepared by adopting the reference MOSFET process on a device.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to semiconductor technology, in particular to a method for measuring the diffusion of surface channel PMOS polysilicon gate boron to metal or metal silicide. Background technique [0002] With the increasing integration of devices in semiconductor integrated circuit chips, the size of commonly used metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) will be further reduced, and lower operating voltages and higher drive currents are required. . [0003] In order to reduce the size of the device and reduce the cost, the industry often adopts the so-called "self-aligned via" (SAC) method; to reduce the operating voltage and increase the drive current, especially for P-channel MOS transistors, it is necessary to use Surface channel (surface channel) devices. However, when the two are combined, there will be special requirements for the gate structure and process: [0004] 1) Perform polysilicon N-type and P-type doping bef...
