Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor device, a manufacturing method thereof and an electronic device, and relates to the technical field of semiconductors. The method includes the steps of providing a semiconductor substrate including at least two adjacent PMOS regions, recesses being formed between isolation structures in the adjacent PMOS regions; forming seed layers on the semiconductor substrate at the bottoms of the recesses; forming bulk germanium-silicon layers on the seed layers; forming cap germanium-silicon layers on the bulk germanium-silicon layers, the cap germanium-silicon layers having a [sigma]-shaped structure; forming a conformal covering layer on the exposed peripheral surface of each cap germanium-silicon layer, and bringing part of the covering layers in the adjacent PMOS regions in contact to form an air gap; forming a dielectric layer on the isolation structures and the covering layers; and etching back part of the dielectric layer and part of the covering layers to expose the top surfaces of the cap germanium-silicon layers. The manufacturing method of the invention can reduce the RC delay of the device and avoid bridging between metal silicides formed on the embedded germanium-silicon top surface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a semiconductor device, a manufacturing method thereof, and an electronic device. Background technique [0002] In order to improve the mobility of carriers in the channel of PMOS devices, the technology of making grooves in the part of PMOS devices where the source / drain regions will be formed and epitaxially embedded silicon germanium has become a hot spot of widespread concern. For the semiconductor manufacturing process of 45nm and below nodes, due to the scaling down of the device size, the length of the device channel is also shortened accordingly. The indented Σ-shaped groove in the channel direction can effectively shorten the length of the device channel and meet the proportional reduction requirements of the device size; at the same time, this Σ-shaped groove has the characteristics of a large undercut under the gate spacer, thus , the embedded silicon g...
