Embodiment Construction

[0029] It can be known from the background art that in order to improve the performance of the fin field effect transistor device, stress can be introduced into the channel region of the MOS transistor to increase the mobility of carriers. However, with the development of semiconductor technology, such as the nitride capping layer (Nitride-Cap) stress layer, due to the high dielectric constant will increase the parasitic capacitance in the device, and the high parasitic capacitance will cause signal delay in the device and affect the chip performance. , so the use of the nitride cap layer stress layer is no longer suitable for highly integrated fin field effect transistor processes. The device performance of the fin field effect transistor in the prior art needs to be further improved.

[0030] In order to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present invention propose a method for forming a FinFET. The advantages of the present invention will become clearer by descr...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a fin field effect transistor and a forming method thereof. Background technique [0002] MOS transistors generate switching signals by regulating the current through the channel region by applying a voltage to the gate. However, when the semiconductor technology enters the node below 30 nanometers, the control ability of the traditional planar MOS transistor to the channel current becomes weak, causing serious leakage current. Fin Field Effect Transistor (FinFET) is an emerging multi-gate device, which generally includes a semiconductor fin with a high aspect ratio, a gate structure covering part of the top and sidewalls of the fin, and a The channel region and source / drain region of the transistor are formed in the part. [0003] figure 1 A schematic diagram of a three-dimensional structure of a fin field effect transistor in the prior art is shown. Such as figure 1...
