The amorphous material of the second initial semiconductor layer 41 is transformed into a single-crystalline material of the second semiconductor layer 52. The second electrode 51 is located at one end of the second semiconductor layer 52. The orthographic projection of the gate structure 60 on the substrate 10 overlaps with the orthographic projection of the second semiconductor layer 52 on the substrate 10. A fourth electrode 53 is formed at the end of the second semiconductor layer 52 away from the second electrode 51, and the remaining second semiconductor layer 52 forms a second channel 54. The second electrode 51, the second channel 54, the gate structure 60, and the fourth electrode 53 form a second transistor 120. The material of the second channel 54 is a single-crystalline material, which has the advantages of high mobility and low impedance, can effectively reduce the resistance of the gate structure 60, and thus improve the working performance of the second transistor 120.

[0115] In the embodiment of the present application, the second initial semiconductor layer 41 is located on the side of the first semiconductor layer 32 away from the substrate 10. The orthographic projections of the first electrode 31 and the first semiconductor layer 32 on the substrate 10 respectively overlap with the orthographic projection of the second initial semiconductor layer 41 on the substrate 10, and the first electrode 31 and the first semiconductor layer 32 are respectively insulated from the second initial semiconductor layer 41, so that the formed second transistor 120 is located on the side of the first transistor 110 away from the substrate 10 and is insulated from the first transistor 110. Along the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, the first transistor 110 and the second transistor 120 are stacked on the substrate 10 in sequence, so that the semiconductor structure occupies less space and area, and the integration density of the storage device can be improved. Stacking the first transistor 110 and the second transistor 120 in the vertical direction can further reduce the area occupied by the device and improve the integration degree of the storage device. At the same time, it can be formed on the same substrate 10 by a simple method, realizing high density, high performance, multi-function and low power consumption of a single chip.

[0116] In the embodiment of the present application, the first transistor 110 and the second transistor 120 share a gate structure 60. The shared gate structure 60 can be used as a signal input terminal, and the on-off states of the upper and lower two transistors with different conduction types (i.e., the first transistor 110 and the second transistor 120) can be controlled simultaneously through the same gate structure 60.

[0117] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, the first transistor 110 is an N-type field effect transistor, and the second transistor 120 is a P-type field effect transistor. Along the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, the N-type field effect transistor and the P-type field effect transistor are stacked on the substrate 10 in sequence.

[0118] The present application provides a preparation method for a 3D (3 Dimension, three-dimensional) stacked CFET structure. The prepared CFET structure has an NFET (N-type field effect transistor) and a PFET (P-type field effect transistor). The PFET is vertically stacked on the NFET and the PFET and the NFET share a gate. The materials of the first channel 34 and the second channel 54 are both single crystal materials transformed from amorphous materials, with relatively high mobility and low impedance. Compared with the traditional CMOS structure, the preparation process of the CFET structure in the present application is simple, the occupied area of the prepared CFET structure is small, the manufacturing cost is low, and the working performance is high.

[0119] Of course, in some other alternative embodiments of the present application, according to actual needs, the first transistor 110 can be a P-type field effect transistor, and the second transistor 120 can be an N-type field effect transistor. Along the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10, the P-type field effect transistor and the N-type field effect transistor are stacked on the substrate 10 in sequence.

[0120] Optionally, in the embodiment of the present application, the first electrode 31, the first channel 34, and the third electrode 33 are arranged in sequence along a first direction parallel to the substrate 10. The second electrode 51, the second channel 54, and the fourth electrode 53 are arranged in sequence along the first direction parallel to the substrate 10.

[0121] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 2 shown, before forming the first initial semiconductor layer 21 on one side of the substrate 10, the preparation method further includes: forming a first barrier layer 71 on one side of the substrate 10.

[0122] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figures 2 to 4 shown, forming the first initial semiconductor layer 21 on one side of the substrate 10 includes:

[0123] As Figure 2As shown, a first amorphous silicon thin film 22 is formed on a side of the first barrier layer 71 away from the substrate 10. Optionally, an SiO2 (silicon dioxide) and a-Si (amorphous silicon) stack may be sequentially deposited on one side of the substrate 10, the formed SiO2 thin film serving as the first barrier layer 71 and the formed a-Si thin film serving as the first amorphous silicon thin film 22. In the embodiments of the present application, the first barrier layer 71 is used to prevent or inhibit the diffusion of impurities (such as impurities in the substrate 10) into the first amorphous silicon thin film 22. In some optional embodiments of the present application, the thickness (dimension in the direction perpendicular to the substrate 10) of the a-Si thin film is 10 nm - 30 nm.

[0124] Next, as Figure 2 shown, ion implantation is performed on the first amorphous silicon thin film 22. Optionally, N-type ion implantation is performed on the first amorphous silicon thin film 22. Optionally, the implanted ion is P (phosphorus), the energy is 20 keV (kilo-electron volts), and the implantation dose is 3×10 14 cm -2 . Optionally, the implanted ion is P 31 .

[0125] Next, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a first patterning process is performed to form the first amorphous silicon thin film 22 into a first initial electrode region 23, a first initial channel region 24, and a second initial electrode region 25 that are sequentially connected. The orthographic projection area of the first initial electrode region 23 on the substrate 10 and the orthographic projection area of the second initial electrode region 25 on the substrate 10 are respectively larger than the orthographic projection area of the first initial channel region 24 on the substrate 10, so as to serve as the first initial semiconductor layer 21.

[0126] The first initial electrode region 23, the first initial channel region 24, and the second initial electrode region 25 form the initial active layer of the first transistor 110. The implanted ion types of the first initial electrode region 23, the first initial channel region 24, and the second initial electrode region 25 are the same, so that there is no PN junction in the initial active layer of the first transistor 110, and the prepared first transistor 110 is a junctionless device. Optionally, the first initial electrode region 23, the first initial channel region 24, and the second initial electrode region 25 have uniform doping. Optionally, N-type ion implantation is performed on the first amorphous silicon thin film 22, and the prepared first transistor 110 is an NFET.

[0127] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, there is no order preference for performing ion implantation and the first patterning process on the first amorphous silicon thin film 22. Ion implantation may be performed on the first amorphous silicon thin film 22 first, and then the first patterning process may be performed, or the first patterning process may be performed first, and then ion implantation may be performed on the patterned first amorphous silicon thin film 22.

[0128] Optionally, the material of the first initial semiconductor layer 21 may also be amorphous germanium.

[0129] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, forming the first initial semiconductor layer 21 into the first electrode 31 and the first semiconductor layer 32 includes:

[0130] Adopting a metal-induced crystallization process, forming a part of the first initial semiconductor layer 21 into the first electrode 31, and transforming another part of the first initial semiconductor layer 21 made of amorphous material into the first semiconductor layer 32 made of single-crystal material.

[0131] By adopting the metal-induced crystallization process, while obtaining an appropriate crystallization rate, the uniformity and stability of obtaining a large-area single-crystal material can be improved. The metal-induced crystallization technology has the advantages of simple process, enabling the crystallization of amorphous silicon thin films in a short time, high efficiency, and the prepared single-crystalline silicon thin films having higher mobility and lower impedance.

[0132] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figures 6 to 10 shown, forming the first initial semiconductor layer 21 into the first electrode 31 and the first semiconductor layer 32 includes:

[0133] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, forming a first covering layer 81 on one side of the substrate 10, the first covering layer 81 covering the first initial semiconductor layer 21, the first covering layer 81 having first induced holes 82, and the bottom of the first induced holes 82 exposing the first initial electrode region 23.

[0134] Next, as Figure 8 shown, forming a first inducing layer 83 on one side of the substrate 10, the first inducing layer 83 covering the first covering layer 81, the inner wall of the first induced holes 82, and the exposed first initial electrode region 23, the first inducing layer 83 contacting the first initial electrode region 23, and the material of the first inducing layer 83 including a metal.

[0135] Next, as Figure 9 shown, performing a first heat treatment to transform the amorphous silicon in the first initial electrode region 23 into a metal silicide to form the first electrode 31;

[0136] Next, as Figure 10 shown, performing a second heat treatment, using the metal material in the first inducing layer 83 as an inducing source and the metal silicide of the first electrode 31 as a medium, inducing the amorphous silicon in the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial electrode region 25 to transform into single-crystalline silicon, and activating the implanted ions to form the first semiconductor layer 32.

[0137] In the embodiment of the present application, after the first heat treatment, the amorphous silicon in the first initial electrode region 23 reacts with the metal in the first induction layer 83 to be transformed into metal silicide, forming the first electrode 31. Then, the second heat treatment is carried out. Taking the metal material in the first induction layer 83 as the induction source and the metal silicide of the first electrode 31 as the medium, the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial electrode region 25 are induced to crystallize laterally (parallel to the direction of the substrate 10), so that the amorphous silicon in the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial electrode region 25 is transformed into single crystal silicon, and the implanted ions are activated.

[0138] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figures 5 to 7 shown, a first covering layer 81 is formed on one side of the substrate 10, including:

[0139] As Figure 5 shown, a silicon oxide material is deposited on one side of the substrate 10 to form a first initial covering layer 811, and the first initial covering layer 811 covers the first barrier layer 71 and the first initial semiconductor layer 21. Optionally, SiO2 is deposited on one side of the substrate 10 and planarized to form the first initial covering layer 811.

[0140] Then, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, a second patterning process is carried out to form a first induction hole 82 penetrating through the first initial covering layer 811. The positive projection of the first induction hole 82 on the substrate 10 covers the positive projection of the first initial electrode region 23 on the substrate 10, and the patterned first initial covering layer 811 forms the first covering layer 81.

[0141] In the embodiment of the present application, the positive projection of the first induction hole 82 on the substrate 10 covers the positive projection of the first initial electrode region 23 on the substrate 10, that is, the dimension of the first induction hole 82 along the direction parallel to the substrate 10 is larger than the dimension of the first initial electrode region 23 along the direction parallel to the substrate 10, so that the process window for induced crystallization is wider, and the entire channel can be induced to crystallize.

[0142] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 8 shown, a first induction layer 83 is formed on one side of the substrate 10, including:

[0143] A first silicon oxide thin film 831 and a first nickel thin film 832 are sequentially deposited on one side of the substrate 10. The first silicon oxide thin film 831 covers the first covering layer 81, the inner wall of the first induction hole 82 and the exposed first initial electrode region 23. The first nickel thin film 832 covers the side of the first silicon oxide thin film 831 away from the substrate 10. The first silicon oxide thin film 831 and the first nickel thin film 832 form the first induction layer 83.

[0144] Optionally, a 2-nm-thick SiO2 thin film and a 10-nm-thick Ni (nickel) thin film are sequentially deposited on one side of the substrate 10. The SiO2 thin film serves as the first silicon oxide thin film 831, and the Ni thin film serves as the first nickel thin film 832.

[0145] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, the metal for inducing crystallization includes, but is not limited to, one or more of nickel, chromium, cobalt, palladium, germanium, aluminum, tungsten, etc.

[0146] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 9 shown ( Figure 9 the first nickel thin film 832 is not shown), a first heat treatment is performed, including:

[0147] Annealing is performed at 400°C - 500°C for a treatment time of 1 min - 5 min, so that the amorphous silicon in the first initial electrode region 23 reacts with the nickel material in the first induction layer 83 to form nickel silicide, thereby forming the first electrode 31. Annealing in this temperature range and time range can form the NiSi2 phase, and the NiSi2 phase has the smallest lattice mismatch with the single-crystal silicon lattice, resulting in the highest quality of induced crystallization. Optionally, rapid thermal annealing treatment can be performed to form nickel silicide NiSi2, thereby forming the first electrode 31.

[0148] During the rapid thermal annealing treatment, the nickel material in the first induction layer 83 rapidly diffuses into the first initial electrode region 23, and the nickel material forms a high-quality induction medium NiSi2 with the amorphous silicon for crystallization.

[0149] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 10 shown ( Figure 10 the first nickel thin film 832 is not shown), a second heat treatment is performed, including:

[0150] Annealing is performed at 500°C - 600°C for a treatment time of 1 h - 24 h. The induction source is the nickel material in the first induction layer 83, and the medium is the nickel silicide of the first electrode 31. This temperature range is for low-temperature induction of amorphous silicon crystallization, which can avoid solid-phase epitaxial crystallization during the crystallization process and is beneficial to improving the crystallization quality.

[0151] Annealing is performed at 500°C - 600°C for a treatment time of 1 h - 24 h. Using the nickel material in the first induction layer 83 as the induction source and the nickel silicide of the first electrode 31 as the induction medium, the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial electrode region 25 are induced to crystallize, so that the amorphous silicon in the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial electrode region 25 crystallizes into single-crystal silicon. Since the lattice constants of NiSi2 and c-Si (single-crystal silicon) are and relatively close, the lattice mismatch is extremely small, and at the same time, the implanted ions P will be activated during the crystallization process.

[0152] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 11 shown ( Figure 11 in which the first nickel thin film 832 has been removed), after the second heat treatment, the preparation method further includes:

[0153] Removing the remaining first nickel thin film 832. Optionally, the remaining first nickel thin film 832 can be cleaned by acid leaching.

[0154] Next, a silicon oxide material is deposited on one side of the substrate 10 to form a second barrier layer 72, and the second barrier layer 72 covers the first silicon oxide thin film 831 and fills the first induced hole 82. Optionally, SiO2 is deposited on one side of the substrate 10 and planarized to form the second barrier layer 72.

[0155] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, such as Figures 12 to 15 shown, a second initial semiconductor layer 41 is formed on the side of the first semiconductor layer 32 away from the substrate 10, including:

[0156] Such as Figure 12 shown, a second amorphous silicon thin film 42 is formed on the side of the second barrier layer 72 away from the substrate 10. Optionally, an a-Si thin film with a thickness of 10 nm - 30 nm is deposited on the side of the second barrier layer 72 away from the substrate 10 as the second amorphous silicon thin film 42.

[0157] Next, as Figure 13 and Figure 14 shown, a third patterning process is performed to form the second amorphous silicon thin film 42 into a third initial electrode region 43, a second initial channel region 44, and a fourth initial electrode region 45 that are sequentially connected. The orthographic projection areas of the third initial electrode region 43 and the fourth initial electrode region 45 on the substrate 10 are respectively larger than the orthographic projection area of the second initial channel region 44 on the substrate 10.

[0158] Next, as Figure 15 shown, ion implantation is performed on the second amorphous silicon thin film 42 to form the second initial semiconductor layer 41, and the ion type implanted in the second initial semiconductor layer 41 is opposite to the ion type implanted in the first initial semiconductor layer 21. Optionally, P-type ion implantation is performed on the second amorphous silicon thin film 42. Optionally, the implanted ion is BF2 (boron difluoride), the energy is 30 keV, and the implantation dose is 3×10 14 cm -2 .

[0159] The third initial electrode region 43, the second initial channel region 44, and the fourth initial electrode region 45 form the initial active layer of the second transistor 120. The types of implanted ions in the third initial electrode region 43, the second initial channel region 44, and the fourth initial electrode region 45 are the same, such that there is no PN junction in the initial active layer of the second transistor 120, and the fabricated second transistor 120 is a junctionless device. Optionally, the third initial electrode region 43, the second initial channel region 44, and the fourth initial electrode region 45 have uniform doping. Optionally, P-type ion implantation is performed on the second amorphous silicon thin film 42, and the fabricated second transistor 120 is a PFET.

[0160] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present application, there is no sequence requirement for performing ion implantation on the second amorphous silicon thin film 42 and the third patterning process. Ion implantation can be performed on the second amorphous silicon thin film 42 first and then the third patterning process, or the third patterning process can be performed first and then ion implantation on the patterned second amorphous silicon thin film 42.

[0161] Optionally, the material of the second initial semiconductor layer 41 can also be amorphous germanium.

[0162] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, forming the second initial semiconductor layer 41 into the second electrode 51 and the second semiconductor layer 52 includes:

[0163] Using a metal-induced crystallization process, a part of the second initial semiconductor layer 41 is formed into the second electrode 51, and the other part of the second initial semiconductor layer 41 in amorphous state is transformed into the second semiconductor layer 52 in single crystal material.

[0164] Using the metal-induced crystallization process can improve the uniformity and stability of obtaining large-area single crystal material while achieving an appropriate crystallization rate. The metal-induced crystallization technology has the advantages of simple process, enabling the crystallization of amorphous silicon thin film in a short time, high efficiency, and the prepared single crystal silicon thin film having higher mobility and lower impedance.

[0165] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figures 16 to 20 shown, forming the second initial semiconductor layer 41 into the second electrode 51 and the second semiconductor layer 52 includes:

[0166] As Figure 16 and Figure 17 shown, a second covering layer 91 is formed on one side of the substrate 10. The second covering layer 91 covers the second initial semiconductor layer 41 and the second barrier layer 72. The second covering layer 91 has a second induced hole 92, and the bottom of the second induced hole 92 exposes the third initial electrode region 43.

[0167] Next, as Figure 18As shown, a second induction layer 93 is formed on one side of the substrate 10.

The second induction layer 93 is in contact with the third initial electrode region 43, and the material of the second induction layer 93 includes metal.

[0168] Next, as Figure 19 shown ( Figure 19 showing the second silicon oxide thin film 931 of the second induction layer 93, and not showing the second nickel thin film 932 of the second induction layer 93), a third heat treatment is performed to transform the amorphous silicon in the third initial electrode region 43 into metal silicide to form the second electrode 51.

[0169] Next, as Figure 20 shown ( Figure 20 showing the second silicon oxide thin film 931 of the second induction layer 93, and not showing the second nickel thin film 932 of the second induction layer 93), a fourth heat treatment is performed. Using the metal material in the second induction layer 93 as the induction source and the metal silicide of the second electrode 51 as the medium, the amorphous silicon in the second initial channel region 44 and the fourth initial electrode region 45 is induced to transform into single crystal silicon, and the implanted ions are activated to form the second semiconductor layer 52.

[0170] In the embodiment of the present application, after the third heat treatment, the amorphous silicon in the third initial electrode region 43 reacts with the metal in the second induction layer 93 to transform into metal silicide, forming the second electrode 51. Then, a fourth heat treatment is performed. Using the metal material in the second induction layer 93 as the induction source and the metal silicide of the second electrode 51 as the medium, crystallization is induced laterally (parallel to the direction of the substrate 10) in the second initial channel region 44 and the fourth initial electrode region 45, so that the amorphous silicon in the second initial channel region 44 and the fourth initial electrode region 45 is transformed into single crystal silicon.

[0171] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 16 and Figure 17 shown, a second covering layer 91 is formed on one side of the substrate 10, including:

Optionally, depositing SiO2 on one side of the substrate 10 and performing a planarization process to form the second initial covering layer.

[0173] Next, a fourth patterning process is performed to form a second induction hole 92 penetrating the second initial covering layer. The positive projection of the second induction hole 92 on the substrate 10 covers the positive projection of the third initial electrode region 43 on the substrate 10, and the second initial covering layer after the patterning process forms the second covering layer 91.

[0174] In the embodiments of the present application, the orthographic projection of the second induction hole 92 on the substrate 10 covers the orthographic projection of the third initial electrode region 43 on the substrate 10, that is, the dimension of the second induction hole 92 in the direction parallel to the substrate 10 is greater than the dimension of the third initial electrode region 43 in the direction parallel to the substrate 10, so that the process window for induced crystallization is relatively wide, and induced crystallization can occur throughout the channel.

The second nickel thin film 932 covers the side of the second silicon oxide thin film 931 away from the substrate 10. The second silicon oxide thin film 931 and the second nickel thin film 932 form the second induction layer 93.

[0177] Optionally, a 2-nm-thick SiO2 thin film and a 10-nm-thick Ni (nickel) thin film are sequentially deposited on one side of the substrate 10. The SiO2 thin film serves as the second silicon oxide thin film 931, and the Ni thin film serves as the second nickel thin film 932.

[0178] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, the metal for induced crystallization includes, but is not limited to, one or more of nickel, chromium, cobalt, palladium, germanium, aluminum, tungsten, etc.

[0181] During the rapid thermal annealing treatment, the nickel material in the second induction layer 93 rapidly diffuses to the third initial electrode region 43, and the nickel material and the amorphous silicon form a high-quality induction medium NiSi2 for crystallization.

[0182] In some alternative embodiments of the present application, as Figure 20 shown ( Figure 20 the second nickel thin film 932 of the second induction layer 93 is not shown), a fourth heat treatment is performed, including:

[0184] Annealing treatment is carried out at 500°C - 600°C for 60 minutes. Using the nickel material of the second inducing layer 93 as the inducing source and the nickel silicide of the second electrode 51 as the inducing medium, the second initial channel region 44 and the fourth initial electrode region 45 are induced to crystallize, making the amorphous silicon in the second initial channel region 44 and the fourth initial electrode region 45 crystallize into single crystal silicon. Since the lattice constants of NiSi2 and c-Si (single crystal silicon) are and relatively close, the lattice mismatch is extremely small. At the same time, the implanted ion BF2 will be activated during the crystallization process.

The PFET is vertically stacked on the NFET and shares a gate; both the NFET and the PFET are junctionless devices, and their source and drain electrodes and the channel have uniform doping; the channel of the CFET structure is a single crystal induced by metal silicidation-induced amorphous transformation. Compared with traditional CMOS, the preparation process of the CFET structure in the embodiment of the present application is simple, has a small area, low cost, and the preparation thermal budget is less than or equal to 600°C.

The first groove 101 extends in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 10. Optionally, the dimension of the first groove 101 along a second direction parallel to the substrate 10 is greater than the dimension of the first initial channel region 24 along the second direction and greater than the dimension of the second initial channel region 44 along the second direction, so as to expose the circumferential sidewalls of the first initial channel region 24 and the second initial channel region 44. The first groove 101 penetrates through the first insulating layer 73, the second silicon oxide thin film 931, the second covering layer 91, the second barrier layer 72, the first silicon oxide thin film 831, the first covering layer 81, and extends to the first barrier layer 71.

The gate dielectric layer 61 covers the sidewalls of the first initial channel region 24, the sidewalls of the second initial channel region 44, and the inner wall of the first groove 101. Optionally, the material of the gate dielectric layer 61 includes but is not limited to high-k materials. High-k materials generally refer to materials with a dielectric constant greater than 3.9, such as hafnium oxide (HfO2), etc. Forming the gate dielectric layer 61 with a high-k material can increase the capacitance. Optionally, the gate dielectric layer 61 is formed by depositing a high-k material.
