Problems solved by technology

[0004] Aiming at the existing processing technology existing in the prior art, it is easy to cause the film to be over-etched or under-etched, and the corner where the gate region is connected to the first layer of top-layer silicon is easy to leave a film, resulting in uneven or incomplete growth of the epitaxial layer The present invention provides a film process optimization method for improving FDSOI epitaxial growth, which can effectively control the film thickness, prevent the film from being over-etched or under-etched, and reduce the connection corner between the gate region and the first top layer of silicon The residual film at the place expands the epitaxial growth window, which can improve the uniformity and integrity of the epitaxial growth

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of transistor processing, in particular to a film process optimization method for improving FDSOI epitaxial growth. Background technique [0002] With the development of integrated circuits, the epitaxial process is widely used. Epitaxial growth is a transistor processing process that grows one or more new single crystals on a single crystal substrate to improve device design flexibility and device performance. Currently, the commonly used Epitaxial growth processes include: decompression epitaxy, low temperature epitaxy, selective epitaxy, liquid phase epitaxy, heterogeneous epitaxy, etc., among which selective epitaxy refers to the arrangement of masks on the substrate, and the opening of single-crystal epitaxy in a certain area on the substrate. The window area where the layer grows, and the area where the mask is left no longer grows the epitaxial layer. [0003] At present, in the FDSOI manufacturing p...
