Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, due to the high aspect ratio, the bottom of the contact hole generally forms a tapered profile, and oxides are easy to form when filling the isolation material, resulting in a weak point in the final contact hole, which in turn causes leakage current

Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor device, a fabrication method thereof and an electronic device. The fabrication method comprises the following steps of providing a semiconductor substrate, and forming a device structure on the semiconductor substrate; forming a gap wall on a surface of the device structure, wherein the total widths of the gap wall and the device structure at each position ina horizontal direction both are larger than the maximum width of the device structure; modifying a part, exceeding the maximum width of the device structure, of the gap wall in the horizontal direction; and removing the modified part of the gap wall so that the remaining gap wall and the device structure form a perpendicular vertical section. By the fabrication method, a contact of NOR can be formed by employing a reversely-rotating self-aligned-contact process, the contact has vertical section, and meanwhile, a weak point is prevented from existing in the contact to cause leakage current. The semiconductor device and the electronic device have similar advantages.

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] With the development of semiconductor process technology, the size of the contact hole (contact) is getting smaller and smaller. For the technology node of 28nm and below, self-aligned-contact (self-aligned-contact, SAC for short) needs to be used. SAC process such as Figure 1A and Figure 1B As shown, a gate stack composed of a gate oxide layer 101, a gate 102 and a hard mask layer 103 is formed on a semiconductor substrate 100, and a spacer and an etch stop layer 104 are formed on the sidewalls of the gate stack. Then an interlayer dielectric layer 105 is formed, and then a photoresist layer 106 is formed on the interlayer dielectric layer 105. The photoresist layer 106 defines the pattern of the contact hole, and then the photoresist layer 106 is use...
