Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor integrated circuits, and in particular to a heterojunction bipolar transistor with a GAA structure and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] The development history of semiconductor integrated circuit technology is essentially the history of transistor size reduction, from the 10μm planar structure in the 1970s, to the 22nm-FinFET three-dimensional structure in 2012, and then to the 5nm-FinFET, following Moore's Law step by step. After 5nm, the FinFET structure is difficult to meet the electrostatic control required by the transistor. In 2019, Samsung clearly stated that it will apply the Gate-All-Around FET technology at the next technology node 3nm.
[0003] The new GAA structure can achieve better control over the field effect transistor channel because the contact area between the gate and the channel is larger, increasing from three-sided contact in the FinFET structure to four-sided contact in the GAA structure, which will reduce the gate length, that is, the device feature size.
[0004] The improvement of the performance of digital integrated circuits and analog integrated circuits mainly relies on the reduction of transistor size, new device structures or new semiconductor materials. The latter is mainly composed of bipolar junction transistors (BJT). Therefore, for BJT, reducing its characteristic size and adopting new device structures or new semiconductor materials are of great significance.
[0005] The present invention is a heterojunction bipolar transistor with a GAA structure. The design principle of the heterojunction is to use the change of the band gap width of the semiconductor material and the electric field force acting on electrons and holes to control the distribution and flow of carriers. Compared with the homojunction of BJT, it has many advantages. The GAA structure is a new device structure that is the mainstream of the next technology node, which reduces the device feature size while improving the device performance. Summary of the invention

Without violating the principles of the present application, the features in the various embodiments can be combined to obtain new implementations, or certain features in certain embodiments can be replaced to obtain other preferred implementations.
[0050] Figures 1 to 13B FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the device structure at each stage of the manufacturing process of the heterojunction bipolar transistor with a GAA structure according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein Figure 1 and Figure 2 is the stereogram corresponding to step 1; FIG. 3A to FIG. 13A It is a cross-sectional view, and the cross-sectional position is AA; FIG. 3B to FIG. 9B is a cross-sectional view, the cross-sectional position is BB, and the cross-sectional positions AA and BB are the center lines of the directions respectively; Fig. 10B and Fig. 11B It is a cross-section diagram, and the cross-section position is BB 1 and BB 2 ,BB 1 and BB 2 The structure of the cross-section is the same even though the cross-section positions are different; Fig. 12B and Fig. 13B It is a cross-section diagram, and the cross-section position is BB 3 and BB 4 ,BB 3 and BB 4 The cross-sectional structures are the same despite different cross-sectional positions.
[0051] Step 1: forming a stacked structure of a first sacrificial layer 201 and a semiconductor nanosheet layer 202 interlaced on the substrate 101, such as Figure 1 It should be noted that in the drawings of the present invention, except for Si material and SiO2 material without filling patterns, other materials will use the same filling pattern to represent the same material layer, and the description is omitted in the drawings. For example, Figure 1In the figure, both the upper and lower sides of the semiconductor nanosheet layer 202 are the first sacrificial layer 201, but only one of them is marked, and the other first sacrificial layer 201 is represented by the same filling pattern. Specifically, a superlattice growth method is used on the substrate 101 to grow a stacked structure of the first sacrificial layer 201 and the semiconductor nanosheet layer 202. The first sacrificial layer 201 is a SiGe material, and the semiconductor nanosheet layer 202 is above the first sacrificial layer 201. The semiconductor nanosheet layer 202 is an n-type Si material, and the n-type impurities can be phosphorus or arsenic. 201 / 202 / 201 are epitaxially grown to form a SiGe / Si / SiGe structure, wherein the thickness of the first sacrificial layer 201 is 5-100nm, and the thickness of the semiconductor nanosheet layer 202 is 5-100nm. Then, the SiGe / Si / SiGe stacked structure is formed by photolithography and etching processes. Figure 2 As shown in the structure, the purpose of this step is to form a second sacrificial layer 102 and a collector region 103, and the collector region 103 is an n-type semiconductor nanosheet Si.
[0052] Step 2: Figure 2 A virtual gate 203 is formed on the SiGe / Si / SiGe stacked structure shown in the figure. The method for forming the virtual gate 203 structure is not particularly limited, and it can generally be composed of polycrystalline or amorphous Si, Ge or SiGe materials. The virtual gate 203 can be formed by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD), high density plasma chemical vapor deposition (HDPCVD), plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) or other suitable process methods, but it is not limited to these. A hard mask layer 204 is deposited on the virtual gate 203 using the above method or other suitable process methods. The hard mask layer 204 is composed of Si3N4 material, such as Figure 3A and Figure 3B .
[0053] Step 3, the second sacrificial layer 102 is laterally etched from both sides in the Y direction to form a third sacrificial layer 1021, and a first supporting layer 106 is deposited on the surface of the device. The first supporting layer 106 is made of SiO2 material. There is no particular limitation on the deposition method, which can generally be ALD, LPCVD, HDP CVD, PECVD and other suitable processes, such as Figure 4A and Figure 4B .
[0054] Step 4: deposit a first SiON layer 205 on the first support layer 106 in step 3. The method for forming the first SiON layer 205 is not particularly limited. For example, the first SiON layer 205 may be deposited by PECVD or HDP CVD, and the device may be planarized by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). Figure 5A and Figure 5BThe first SiON layer 205 is used as a bottom anti-reflection layer of photolithography and is composed of a high extinction material, which can absorb light passing through the photoresist layer and reduce the influence of the standing wave effect.
[0055] Step 5: Fig. 6A and Figure 6B As shown, a portion of the insulating material is removed from the device horizontal surface by anisotropic etching, and the dummy gate 203 is used as an etching stop layer to form a second supporting layer 107 and a second SiON layer 206, wherein the second supporting layer 107 is made of SiO2 material.
[0056] Step 6: Fig. 7A and Figure 7B As shown, the virtual gate 203 and the SiO2 and SiON on its surface are removed to form a first groove 301, and then the third sacrificial layer 1021 is selectively etched laterally to remove the SiGe material used as the sacrificial layer in the first groove to form a fourth sacrificial layer 1022. There is no particular limitation on the method of removing the SiGe material used as the sacrificial layer. For example, HF, HNO3, and H2O etching solutions can be used, but are not limited to these. After removal, the collector region 103 located in the first groove 301 is suspended above the substrate 101. The collector region 103 located in the first groove 301 is rounded by oxidation followed by wet etching to form a fourth sacrificial layer 1022. Figure 7B The formation method of the cross-sectional racetrack structure shown is not particularly limited. For example, the semiconductor nanosheet Si located in the collector region 103 of the first groove 301 may be first oxidized, and then the oxide layer is wet-etched by dilute hydrofluoric acid (DHF), buffered hydrofluoric acid etching solvent (HF / NH4F) or other suitable solvents to obtain a cross-sectional racetrack shape, but the method is not limited thereto. Then, hydrogen annealing is performed at a temperature of 800°C-1200°C to make the surface of the collector region 103 located in the first groove 301 smoother and denser.
[0057] Step 7: forming a first insulating layer 109 in the first groove 301 in step 6. The first insulating layer is made of SiO2 material. The method of forming the first insulating layer is not particularly limited. In the present invention, it is preferably deposited by HDP CVD and then planarized by CMP, but it is not limited to this method. Fig. 8A and Figure 8B shown.
[0058] Step eight, spin-coat a layer of photoresist 110, transfer the pattern on the mask to the device surface by photolithography technology, and etch the second support layer 107 and the second SiON layer 206 to form the third support layer 108 (i.e., the remaining part after the second support layer 107 is etched) and the third SiON layer 207, and the second groove 302 and the third groove 303. Remove the fourth sacrificial layer 1022 in step six, and the removal method is the same as that in step six, so that the collector region 103 is partially suspended above the substrate 101, and the collector region 103 located in the second groove 302 and the third groove 303 is obtained by the same process as in step six. The racetrack-shaped cross-sectional view formed in this step should have an area greater than or equal to the racetrack-shaped cross-sectional view formed in step six. In this embodiment, the former and the latter have the same cross-sectional area. The purpose of this practice is to suppress the current edge gathering effect. Then, hydrogen annealing is performed at a temperature of 800°C to 1200°C to make the surface of the collector region 103 located in the second groove 302 and the third groove 303 smoother and denser. This process can increase the junction area of the collector junction and the emitter junction, and improve the interface state between the emitter region and the base region, and between the base region and the collector region, such as Fig. 9A and Fig. 9B shown.
[0059] Step nine, epitaxially grow compressively strained p-type SiGe as base region 111 around collector region 103 located in second groove 302 and third groove 303, the thickness of base region 111 is not particularly limited, preferably 10nm-50nm, and p-type impurities are not particularly limited, preferably boron or aluminum. Thus, a fully surrounding collector junction is formed, such as Fig. 10A and Fig. 10B shown.
[0060] Step ten, remove the photoresist 110, deposit SiO2 in the second groove 302 and the third groove 303, the deposition method here is not particularly limited, preferably can be ALD, LPCVD, HDP CVD and PECVD and other suitable processes, and then form the fourth groove 304 and the fifth groove 305 by etching and photolithography, the collector region 103 and the base region 111 are partially suspended above the substrate 101, and the SiO2 that is not removed and the third support layer 108 together form a fourth support layer 112, as shown in FIG. Fig.11A and Fig. 11B shown.
[0061] Step 11: epitaxially grow n-type Si as the emitter region 114 around the base region 111 located at the fourth groove 304 and the fifth groove 305. The thickness of the emitter region 114 is not particularly limited, preferably 10nm-100nm. The n-type impurity is not particularly limited, preferably phosphorus or arsenic. Remove the third SiON layer 207 and then deposit SiO2 on the device surface, and planarize the device using the CMP method. The SiO2 deposited in this step and the SiO2 with supporting and insulating functions in the previous step together form the second insulating layer 113, as shown in FIG. Fig. 12A and Fig. 12B shown.
[0062] Step 12: Fig.13A and Fig. 13B As shown, a high stress Si3N4 capping layer 116 is deposited, and the deposition method is not particularly limited, for example, it can be through a PECVD method. The Si3N4 capping layer 116 provides uniaxial stress. Then, a collector window, a base window and an emitter window are etched out in the Si3N4 capping layer 116, and polysilicon is deposited to form a collector 403, a base 401 and an emitter 402, which are in contact with the collector region, the base region and the emitter region respectively.
[0063] Thus, a heterojunction bipolar transistor with a special GAA structure of the present invention is formed. The preparation method of the present invention is compatible with the preparation process of a full-surround gate field effect transistor, and general equipment can be used, which is conducive to cost reduction.
