Problems solved by technology

[0004] The silicon germanium layer 104 is usually formed by a selective epitaxial process, but in the epitaxial process, the growth rate of the semiconductor material on different crystal planes is different, for example, the growth rate of the silicon material on the (111) crystal plane is lower than that of other crystal planes. The growth rate causes the shape of the subsequently formed silicon germanium layer 104 to be different from the rectangular shape of the source / drain region 103, for example figure 1 The cross section of the silicon germanium layer 104 is a rhombus
[0005] Please refer to figure 2 , with the reduction of the size of the semiconductor process, the distance between the two fins 102 in the fin field effect transistor is getting closer and closer, and the shape of the silicon germanium layer 104 is irregular, which may cause the fins located on the adjacent fins 102 The silicon germanium layer 104 is bridged to form a contact region 105, causing leakage current
[0006] Therefore, the silicon germanium layers 104 of two adjacent fin field effect transistors in the prior art are easy to contact, causing leakage current, and the stress of the silicon germanium layer 104 formed in the prior art is relatively small

Embodiment Construction

[0035] It can be known from the background art that when a fin-type field effect transistor with embedded source and drain regions is formed in the prior art, the embedded source / drain regions of two adjacent fin-type field effect transistors are easy to contact, and leakage current is generated.

[0036] The inventor of the present invention studied the formation process of forming fin-type field effect transistors in the prior art and found that the easy contact between the silicon germanium layers of two adjacent fin-type field effect transistors in the prior art is due to the formation of the epitaxial layer When the semiconductor material has different growth rates on different crystal planes, the formed silicon germanium layer has irregular shapes, angular and protruding tips. As the feature size continues to decrease, the adjacent fin field effect transistors The silicon germanium layer formed on the source / drain regions is prone to bridging.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a P-type fin field effect transistor and a method for forming the same. Background technique [0002] The MOS transistor generates a switching signal by applying a voltage to the gate and adjusting the current through the channel region. However, when semiconductor technology enters the node below 45 nanometers, the traditional planar MOS transistor's ability to control channel current becomes weak, causing serious leakage current. Fin FET is an emerging multi-gate device. It generally includes a semiconductor fin with a high aspect ratio, and a gate structure covering part of the top and sidewalls of the fin. The source and drain regions in the fins on both sides of the pole structure. [0003] In order to improve the performance of fin-type field effect transistors, in the manufacturing process of fin-type field-effect transistors, stress layers are usually formed on the s...
