[0060] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0061] The following describes the relevant technologies:

[0062] As dynamic random access memory (DRAM) shrinks, its capacitors need to meet the requirements of high capacitance and low leakage at the same time, and the selection of dielectric materials becomes particularly critical. The ideal dielectric material needs to meet the requirements of high dielectric constant (k>100), low leakage (<10e -7 A / cm 2 ), with a physical thickness of less than 10nm. However, when depositing dielectric material on the metal bottom electrode, the oxygen source introduced will cause oxidation on the metal bottom electrode surface, forming an interface layer. The interface layer of the dielectric capacitor will affect the quality of the dielectric film, thereby affecting the capacitor performance, such as leakage current and dielectric constant.

[0063] Hafnium oxide (HfO2)-based ferroelectric memory devices (such as ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FeFETs) and ferroelectric random access memories (FeRAMs)) have attracted widespread attention from academia and industry due to their fast read / write speeds, low power consumption, high integration potential, and non-volatility. They are considered one of the most promising new memory devices in the post-Moore era. However, these devices face numerous challenges. One of these challenges is that when depositing the ferroelectric layer on the metal bottom electrode, the oxygen source introduced causes oxidation on the metal bottom electrode surface, forming an interfacial layer. This interfacial layer in the ferroelectric capacitor induces lattice dislocations in the subsequently grown ferroelectric layer, increasing defects and generating a depolarization field. This intensifies charge injection into the ferroelectric layer, thereby affecting the performance of the ferroelectric memory device (such as fatigue and retention characteristics).

[0064] Therefore, for memory devices (such as the 1T1C structure, where the memory cell includes a transistor and a capacitor), both dielectric capacitors and ferroelectric capacitors have an interface layer problem. That is, when depositing the dielectric layer of the capacitor (such as the dielectric layer or the ferroelectric layer), the oxygen source introduced will cause the surface of the metal lower electrode to oxidize, forming an interface layer, which will seriously affect the performance of the device.

[0065] In addition, for memory devices, whether they are dielectric capacitors or ferroelectric capacitors, their electrode materials are usually oxygen-affinity metal materials. During the annealing process to form a high dielectric constant phase (dielectric capacitor) or a ferroelectric phase (such as FeRAM or FeFET), or during the subsequent use of the device, oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer (dielectric capacitor) or the ferroelectric layer (such as FeRAM or FeFET) will be absorbed by the metal electrode, causing the oxygen atoms to diffuse to the interface between the metal electrode and the dielectric layer (or the interface between the metal electrode and the ferroelectric layer), or even diffuse into the interior of the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer (or ferroelectric layer), and ultimately leading to device performance degradation.

[0066] The semiconductor device, manufacturing method thereof, and electronic device provided in this application are intended to solve at least one of the above technical problems in the prior art.

[0067] The following is a detailed description of the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems with specific embodiments. It should be noted that the following embodiments can refer to, draw on, or combine with each other, and the same terms, similar features, and similar implementation steps in different embodiments will not be repeated.

[0068] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same, wherein: Figure 1 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 Flowcharts of different specific examples of a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present application are respectively shown. Figures 2 to 6 Shown Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of the semiconductor device in different processes in the manufacturing method shown is as follows, Figures 9 to 12 Shown Figure 8 The schematic diagram of the structure of the semiconductor device in different processes in the manufacturing method shown is as follows, Figure 6 and Figure 12 Schematic diagrams of the structure of different specific examples of a semiconductor device provided by the embodiment of the present application are shown respectively. Figure 6 and Figure 12As shown, the semiconductor device 100 includes: a substrate 10, a dielectric layer 22, a first conductive layer 21 and a second conductive layer 23. The dielectric layer 22 is located on one side of the substrate 10, and the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms; the first conductive layer 21 is located on the side of the dielectric layer 22 close to the substrate 10; the second conductive layer 23 is located on the side of the dielectric layer 22 away from the substrate 10, and the orthographic projection of the second conductive layer 23 on the substrate 10 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first conductive layer 21 on the substrate 10.

[0069] The semiconductor device 100 further includes: a first isolation layer 24 and a second isolation layer 25. The first isolation layer 24 is located between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 and contacts the dielectric layer 22. The material of the first isolation layer 24 includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms. The bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is smaller than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms. The second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 and contacts the dielectric layer 22. The material of the second isolation layer 25 includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. The bond energy between the third metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is smaller than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms.

[0070] Bond energy is a physical quantity that characterizes the strength of a chemical bond. It can be measured by the energy required to break the bond, and the energy unit can be kJ / mol.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the substrate 10 supports the dielectric layer 22 , the first conductive layer 21 , the second conductive layer 23 , the first isolation layer 24 and the second isolation layer 25 .

[0072] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms, and the material of the first isolation layer 24 includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the first isolation layer 24) between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22, not only can the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 be isolated, but also the surface of the first conductive layer 21 is prevented from being oxidized to form an interface layer during the formation of the dielectric layer 22, so that no interface layer is formed on the surface of the first conductive layer 21 facing the dielectric layer 22, thereby solving the problems of the interface layer of the dielectric capacitor affecting the capacitance performance in the prior art, and solving the problem of the interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor affecting the ferroelectric capacitor in the prior art. The performance problem of the semiconductor device (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics) can be solved; the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 are not in direct contact, the first conductive layer 21 is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, and the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 is inhibited, which solves the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer 22 and oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 can be reduced, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer) to avoid the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the second isolation layer 25 includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the second isolation layer 25) between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, not only can the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 be isolated, so that the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 are not in direct contact, but also the second conductive layer 23 is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, and the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 is inhibited, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, it can provide oxygen to the dielectric layer 22 and reduce oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for the production of thinner dielectric layers (such as dielectric layers or ferroelectric layers), thereby preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing a first isolation layer 24 between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 , and providing a second isolation layer 25 between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 , the performance of the semiconductor device can be improved.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, and the bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is less than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atoms in the first isolation layer 24 can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, and the bond energy between the third metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is less than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atoms in the second isolation layer 25 can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0077] Optionally, the material of the substrate 10 includes but is not limited to Si, SiGex, etc.

[0078] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is conductive; the second isolation layer 25 is conductive.

[0079] In the embodiment of the present application, the first conductive layer 21, the dielectric layer 22, and the second conductive layer 23 are arranged in sequence, and the orthographic projection of the second conductive layer 23 on the substrate 10 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the first conductive layer 21 on the substrate 10. The first isolation layer 24 is located between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22. The first isolation layer 24 is conductive, and the first conductive layer 21 and the first isolation layer 24 form a first electrode 31. The second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23. The second isolation layer 25 is conductive, and the second isolation layer 25 and the second conductive layer 23 form a second electrode 32. The first electrode 31, the dielectric layer 22, and the second electrode 32 form a capacitor 30.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, the first conductive layer 21 is configured to form the first electrode 31 together with the first isolation layer 24, the second isolation layer 25 is configured to form the second electrode 32 together with the second conductive layer 23, the dielectric layer 22 forms the insulating medium of the capacitor 30, and neither the first isolation layer 24 nor the second isolation layer 25 is configured to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22. In this way, the thickness between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 can be characterized by the thickness of the dielectric layer 22, thereby avoiding the problem of increasing the thickness of the insulating medium and reducing the capacitance of the capacitor by configuring the first isolation layer 24 and / or the second isolation layer 25 as the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22, and the technical problem of causing the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer to degrade. Through this configuration, the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor can be reduced, that is, the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor is reduced, which can increase the capacitance of the capacitor and prevent the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer from degrading.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present application, the dielectric layer 22 is an insulating medium, so that there is no electrical conduction between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 .

In this case, the first conductive layer 21 forms the first electrode 31, and the second isolation layer 25 and the second conductive layer 23 form the second electrode 32.

[0083] Of course, in other optional embodiments of the present application, only the first isolation layer 24 may be made conductive, or only the second isolation layer 25 may be made conductive, according to actual needs.

[0156] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms, and the material of the first isolation layer 24 includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the first isolation layer 24) between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22, not only can the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 be isolated, but also the surface of the first conductive layer 21 is prevented from being oxidized to form an interface layer during the formation of the dielectric layer 22, so that no interface layer is formed on the surface of the first conductive layer 21 facing the dielectric layer 22, thereby solving the problems of the interface layer of the dielectric capacitor affecting the capacitance performance in the prior art, and solving the problem of the interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor affecting the ferroelectric capacitor in the prior art. The performance problem of the semiconductor device (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics) can be solved; the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 are not in direct contact, the first conductive layer 21 is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, and the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 is inhibited, which solves the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer 22 and oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 can be reduced, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer) to avoid the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured.

[0157] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the second isolation layer 25 includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the second isolation layer 25) between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, not only can the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 be isolated, so that the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 are not in direct contact, but also the second conductive layer 23 is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, and the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22 is inhibited, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, it can provide oxygen to the dielectric layer 22 and reduce oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for the production of thinner dielectric layers (such as dielectric layers or ferroelectric layers), thereby preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.

[0158] In the embodiment of the present application, by forming a first isolation layer 24 between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22 and forming a second isolation layer 25 between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23 , the performance of the semiconductor device can be improved.

[0159] In the embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, and the bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is less than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atoms in the first isolation layer 24 can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0160] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is in contact with the dielectric layer 22, and the bond energy between the third metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is less than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms. The oxygen atoms in the second isolation layer 25 can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

Optionally, the material of the first conductive layer 21 includes one or more of TiN, Ru, W, Pt, TaN, and the like.

[0162] Forming the first isolation layer 24 includes: depositing a first metal oxide layer having conductivity on a side of the first conductive layer 21 away from the substrate 10 to serve as the first isolation layer 24 , wherein the first isolation layer 24 contacts the first conductive layer 21 .

[0163] Forming the dielectric layer 22 includes depositing a ferroelectric material or a non-ferroelectric dielectric material on a side of the first isolation layer 24 away from the substrate 10 to serve as the dielectric layer 22. Optionally, the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes a ferroelectric material, which is typically HfO2 or doped HfO2, where the doping element in the doped HfO2 includes one or more of Zr, Si, Y, Al, La, Gd, and the like; or, the material of the dielectric layer 22 includes a non-ferroelectric dielectric material, which is typically a high dielectric constant material, such as at least one of hafnium oxide (HfO2), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), lanthanum oxide (La2O3), and strontium titanate (STO).

The second conductive layer 23 contacts the second isolation layer 25 and serves as the other electrode of the capacitor. Optionally, the material of the second conductive layer 23 includes one or more of TiN, Ru, W, Pt, TaN, and the like.

[0166] In the embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer 24 is located between the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22. It can not only isolate the first conductive layer 21 and the dielectric layer 22, prevent the surface of the first conductive layer 21 from being oxidized, and avoid the formation of an interface layer between the dielectric layer 22 (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer) and the first isolation layer 24; it can also inhibit the first conductive layer 21 from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22, ensuring that the oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer 22 will not be absorbed by the first conductive layer 21, thereby inhibiting the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22; it can also supplement oxygen atoms into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, so as to fill some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, which helps to inhibit the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby improving the performance and reliability of semiconductor devices.

[0167] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, and can isolate the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, and can inhibit the second conductive layer 23 from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22 (such as a dielectric layer or a ferroelectric layer), ensuring that the oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer 22 will not be absorbed by the second conductive layer 23, thereby inhibiting the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22; it can also supplement oxygen atoms into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer 22, so as to fill some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, which helps to inhibit the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

The dielectric layer 22 forms the insulating medium of the capacitor 30. The first isolation layer 24 and the second isolation layer 25 are not configured to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22. In this way, the thickness between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 can be represented by the thickness of the dielectric layer 22, avoiding the problem of increasing the thickness of the insulating medium and reducing the capacitance of the capacitor by configuring the first isolation layer 24 and / or the second isolation layer 25 to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22. Through this configuration, the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor can be reduced, that is, the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor is reduced, which can increase the capacitance of the capacitor.

[0177] In some other optional embodiments of the present application, Figures 8 to 12 As shown, the semiconductor device 100 is a transistor, and the substrate 10 is a silicon substrate; forming a first conductive layer 21 includes: processing the silicon substrate through a doping process so that the silicon substrate has a first doping region and a second doping region, the first doping region is a first electrode 26, the second doping region is a second electrode 27, and a portion of the silicon substrate located between the first doping region and the second doping region forms a channel layer 28, and the first conductive layer 21 is the channel layer 28 of the transistor. Optionally, the first doping region and the second doping region of the same doping type can be formed through the doping process, for example, the first doping region and the second doping region can both be N-type or both be P-type. Of course, in other optional embodiments of the present application, according to actual needs, the first doping region and the second doping region of different doping types can also be formed through the doping process, for example, the first doping region is N-type and the second doping region is P-type, or the first doping region is P-type and the second doping region is N-type.

[0178] The dielectric layer 22 is formed, including: depositing a ferroelectric material on one side of the substrate 10 as the dielectric layer 22, the dielectric layer 22 is in contact with the channel layer 28, and the dielectric layer 22 is the gate insulating layer of the transistor. Optionally, the ferroelectric material is usually HfO2 or doped HfO2, and the doping elements in the doped HfO2 include one or more of Zr, Si, Y, Al, La, Gd, etc. It should be noted that before depositing the ferroelectric layer on one side of the substrate 10, a substrate passivation layer is formed on the side of the channel layer 28 where the ferroelectric layer is to be formed, and the ferroelectric layer is formed on the side of the substrate passivation layer away from the channel layer 28. The substrate passivation layer is in contact with the channel layer 28 and the dielectric layer 22 respectively to avoid oxidation of the surface of the channel layer 28 due to oxygen when depositing the ferroelectric layer. Optionally, the material of the substrate passivation layer is, for example, SiO x , SiON, etc.

[0179] Forming the second isolation layer 25 includes depositing a conductive second metal oxide layer on a side of the dielectric layer 22 away from the substrate 10 to serve as the second isolation layer 25 .

[0180] Forming the second conductive layer 23 includes depositing a metal layer on a side of the second isolation layer 25 away from the substrate 10 to form a gate 29. The gate 29 contacts the second isolation layer 25. The second conductive layer 23 serves as the gate 29 of the transistor. Optionally, the material of the gate 29 includes one or more of TiN, Ru, W, Pt, TaN, and the like.

[0181] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is located between the dielectric layer 22 and the second conductive layer 23, and can isolate the dielectric layer 22 and the gate 29, and can inhibit the second conductive layer 23 from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer 22 (such as the ferroelectric layer), ensuring that the oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer 22 will not be absorbed by the second conductive layer 23, thereby inhibiting the formation of oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22; it can also supplement oxygen atoms into the dielectric layer 22 to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer to fill some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer 22, which helps to inhibit the formation of more oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0182] In the embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer 25 is configured to form the second electrode 32 together with the second conductive layer 23, and the dielectric layer 22 forms the insulating medium of the capacitor 30. The second isolation layer 25 is not configured to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22. In this way, the thickness between the first electrode 31 and the second electrode 32 can be represented by the thickness of the dielectric layer 22, avoiding the problem of the second isolation layer 25 being configured to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer 22, which increases the thickness of the insulating medium and reduces the capacitance of the capacitor. This configuration can reduce the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor, that is, reduce the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor, and thus increase the capacitance of the capacitor.

[0183] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, Figures 8 to 12 As shown, the method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes:

[0184] First, a substrate 10 is provided.

[0185] Next, the substrate 10 is processed through a doping process so that the substrate 10 has a first doping region and a second doping region. The first doping region is the first electrode 26, and the second doping region is the second electrode 27, so as to define the source and drain regions. The portion of the substrate 10 located between the first doping region and the second doping region forms a channel layer 28, and the channel layer 28 is the first conductive layer 21.

[0186] Next, a ferroelectric layer is deposited on one side of the substrate 10 to serve as the dielectric layer 22 .

[0187] Next, a second conductive metal oxide layer is deposited on a side of the dielectric layer 22 away from the substrate 10 to serve as a second isolation layer 25 .

[0188] Next, a metal electrode layer is deposited on a side of the second isolation layer 25 away from the substrate 10 to form a gate 29 . The gate 29 is the second conductive layer 23 .

[0190] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, a gate-last process is adopted to first form the first electrode 26 and the second electrode 27 , and then form the gate 29 .

[0191] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, deposition can adopt known processes such as sputtering, evaporation, chemical vapor deposition, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0192] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be understood that a “layer” refers to a thin film of a certain material produced on a substrate by a process such as deposition or coating.

[0193] The method for manufacturing a semiconductor device according to the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the field of semiconductor device preparation and can improve the capacitance performance of the semiconductor device.

[0194] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device, which includes: the above-mentioned semiconductor device 100.

[0195] It should be noted that, since the electronic device of the embodiment of the present application includes the semiconductor device of the embodiment of the present application, the electronic device of the embodiment of the present application also has the above-mentioned beneficial effects of the semiconductor device of the embodiment of the present application, which will not be repeated here.

[0196] In some optional embodiments of the present application, the electronic device includes a storage device, a smart phone, a computer, a tablet computer, an artificial intelligence device, a wearable device, or a smart mobile terminal, etc. The storage device may include a memory in a computer, etc., which is not limited here.

[0197] By applying the embodiments of the present application, at least the following beneficial effects can be achieved:

[0198] In the embodiment of the present application, the material of the dielectric layer includes oxygen atoms and first metal atoms, and the material of the first isolation layer includes oxygen atoms and second metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the first isolation layer) between the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer, not only can the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer be isolated, but also the surface of the first conductive layer is prevented from being oxidized to form an interface layer during the formation of the dielectric layer, so that no interface layer is formed on the surface of the first conductive layer facing the dielectric layer, thereby solving the problems of the interface layer of the dielectric capacitor affecting the capacitance performance in the prior art, and solving the problem of the interface layer of the ferroelectric capacitor affecting the ferroelectric semiconductor in the prior art. The problem of device performance (such as fatigue characteristics and retention characteristics) can be solved; the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer are not in direct contact, which inhibits the first conductive layer from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer and inhibits the formation of more oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the first isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, oxygen can be provided to the dielectric layer and oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer can be reduced, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer) to avoid the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured.

[0199] In an embodiment of the present application, the material of the second isolation layer includes oxygen atoms and third metal atoms. By arranging a metal oxide layer (i.e., the second isolation layer) between the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer, not only can the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer be isolated, so that the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer are not in direct contact, but also the second conductive layer is inhibited from absorbing oxygen from the dielectric layer, and the formation of more oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer is inhibited, thereby solving the problem in the prior art that oxygen atoms in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer diffuse to the metal electrode, causing an increase in oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer, resulting in degradation of device performance; at the same time, since the second isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, it can provide oxygen to the dielectric layer and reduce oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer (such as a dielectric layer or ferroelectric layer), and preventing the dielectric layer from being too thin and being punctured.

[0200] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing a first isolation layer between the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer, and providing a second isolation layer between the dielectric layer and the second conductive layer, the performance of the semiconductor device can be improved.

[0201] In an embodiment of the present application, the first isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, the bond energy between the second metal atoms and the oxygen atoms is smaller than the bond energy between the first metal atoms and the oxygen atoms, and the oxygen atoms in the first isolation layer can easily diffuse into the dielectric layer, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0202] In an embodiment of the present application, the second isolation layer is in contact with the dielectric layer, the bond energy between the third metal atom and the oxygen atom is less than the bond energy between the first metal atom and the oxygen atom, and the oxygen atoms in the second isolation layer easily diffuse into the dielectric layer to provide oxygen for the dielectric layer, filling some of the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, thereby helping to reduce the oxygen vacancies in the dielectric layer, providing space for making a thinner dielectric layer, avoiding the dielectric layer being too thin and being punctured, and further improving the performance and reliability of the semiconductor device.

[0203] In an embodiment of the present application, the first conductive layer is configured to form a first electrode together with the first isolation layer, the second isolation layer is configured to form a second electrode together with the second conductive layer, the dielectric layer forms the insulating medium of the capacitor, and neither the first isolation layer nor the second isolation layer is configured to form the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer. In this way, the thickness between the first electrode and the second electrode can be characterized by the thickness of the dielectric layer, thereby avoiding the problem of increasing the thickness of the insulating medium and reducing the capacitance of the capacitor by configuring the first isolation layer and / or the second isolation layer as the insulating medium of the capacitor together with the dielectric layer, and the technical problem of causing the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer to degrade. Through this configuration, the thickness of the insulating medium of the capacitor can be made smaller, that is, the distance between the first electrode and the second electrode of the capacitor is made smaller, which can increase the capacitance of the capacitor and prevent the polarization strength of the ferroelectric layer from degrading.
