Problems solved by technology

This results in large variations in the electric field in the offset channel region 34 during switching, which in turn results in large changes in the sub-threshold slope
In addition, the breakdown mechanism of existing gated PIN diodes is temperature sensitive, so that temperature changes will also cause sub-threshold slope changes

Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor device and a method for forming the semiconductor device, in particular to a gate control PIN diode and a method for forming the same. The gated PIN diode includes a semiconductor substrate; a gate dielectric layer formed on the semiconductor substrate; a gate formed on the gate dielectric layer; a source gate interval and a drain gate interval along the disposed along respective sides of the gate dielectric layer and the gate; a source, doped with a dopant of a first type, substantially below the source-gate spacer, and connected to a first of the gate a horizontal distance between the sides; a drain doped with a second-type dopant extending substantially below the drain-gate spacer and substantially vertically aligned with a second side of the gate , wherein the first type is opposite to the second type; a source silicide is adjacent to the source; and a drain silicide is adjacent to the drain. The formation of the offset region of the present invention is more precise, so that the accumulative collapse mechanism is better controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device, in particular to a PIN diode. Background technique [0002] In integrated circuits of 90nm technology, metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) is an important technology. According to the gate voltage V g vs. source-drain voltage V ds , a MOS device can operate in three regions, namely the linear region, the subthreshold region, and the saturation region. In the sub-threshold region, the gate voltage V g less than the threshold voltage V t . The sub-threshold slope indicates the ease with which the transistor current is turned off, and thus becomes an important factor in determining the speed of a MOS device. The sub-threshold slope can be represented by the formula m×kT / q, where m is a parameter related to capacitance. The sub-threshold slope of a typical MOS device has a limit of approximately 60mV / decade (kT / q), and then sets a limit to scale the operating voltages Vcc and V t . This limitati...
