Abstract

The technique of self-aligned metal silicides (salicide) includes following steps: first providing a surface of containing at least a substrate of a silicon conductive layer; next, carrying out a degas step for the said substrate, and a cooling step for the substrate; then, depositing a metal layer on surface of the substrate, and the metal layer is contacted to the surface of the silicon conductive layer; carrying out a heat treatment in order to form a silicate metal layer on surface of the silicon conductive layer of contacting with the metal layer; finally, removing unreacted the metal layer.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device process, and in particular to a method for manufacturing salicide. Background technique [0002] In the process of semiconductor integrated circuits, metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistors are an extremely important electronic component. As the size of semiconductor components becomes smaller and smaller, there are many process steps for MOS transistors. The improvement to manufacture small and high-quality MOS transistors. [0003] The existing MOS transistor process involves forming a gate structure on a semiconductor substrate, and then forming a lightly doped drain (LDD) structure in the substrate on opposite sides of the gate structure. Next, spacers are formed on the sides of the gate structure, and the gate structure and the sidewalls are used as a mask to perform an ion implantation step to form source / drain regions in the semiconductor substrate. In order to properly electrically connect ...
