Benefits of technology

[0007] The present invention is directed to an enhancement mode MOSFET based semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device intended to prevent a leakage current from occurring due to a GIDL (Gate induced drain leakage) effect.
[0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a semiconductor device manufacturing method, which may prevent the leakage current from occurring due to the GIDL effect, comprising the steps of forming a first dielectric film on an entire upper part of a semiconductor substrate, forming a photoresist pattern on a p-well including a gate pattern of an NMOS transistor and a gate spacer thereof, and subsequently implanting ions into an n-well for forming a high concentration source / drain regions of a PMOS by using the first dielectric film formed on upper parts of a gate pattern and a gate spacer of a PMOS transistor as an implant mask, and forming an interlayer dielectric film thereon and then forming a contact, wherein said semiconductor substrate includes a PMOS transistor region in the n-well; an NMOS transistor region in the p-well, the gate pattern of the PMOS transistor formed on the PMOS transistor region and the gate spacers formed on both side walls of the gate pattern thereof, and the gate pattern of the NMOS transistor formed on the NMOS transistor region and the gate spacers formed on both side walls of the gate pattern thereof, the n-well having a low concentration source / drain regions formed by ion-implantation using the gate pattern of the PMOS transistor as an implant mask, and the p-well having a low concentration source / drain regions formed by ion-implantation using the gate pattern of the NMOS transistor as an implant mask and a high concentration source / drain regions formed by ion-implantation using the gate pattern and the gate spacers of the NMOS transistor as an implant mask.

Problems solved by technology

A high leakage current flow through the semiconductor device made of the MOS transistors, in the stand-by condition, leads to a high power consumption.
However, these conventional methods also cause a change in the threshold voltage of the MOS transistor, making it difficult to optimize the thickness of the gate dielectric layer and the channel ion implantation concentration.
Such a large leakage current may cause an error operation of a PMOS transistor.

Abstract

A CMOS semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same in which the gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) effect is reduced. In the semiconductor device of this invention, high concentration source / drain regions of a PMOS transistor are formed away from the gate pattern sidewall spacers. This is accomplished by using as an implant mask a dielectric film formed on an entire surface of a semiconductor substrate, where the semiconductor substrate includes a PMOS transistor region in an n-well, a low concentration source / drain regions of a PMOS transistor formed by using a gate pattern as an implant mask, the PMOS transistor gate pattern sidewall spacers, and an NMOS transistor region in a p-well with the NMOS transistor having both a low concentration and a high concentration source / drain regions.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates in general to a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, the present invention is directed to an enhancement mode MOSFET device and methods of manufacturing the same. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Increasing the density of integration of a semiconductor device requires shortening of channel length of MOS transistors. If the channel length of the MOS transistor is shortened, a significant leakage current flows even though a voltage lower than a threshold voltage is applied to a gate of the MOS transistor. A high leakage current flow through the semiconductor device made of the MOS transistors, in the stand-by condition, leads to a high power consumption. Several methods, such as reducing the thickness of a gate dielectric layer or increasing the channel ion implantation concentration etc, have been tried for solving this short chan...
