Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments relate to a resistor structure of a semiconductor device, a semiconductor device including the same, and a method of manufacturing the same. For example, embodiments relate to a polysilicon resistor structure of a semiconductor device, a semiconductor device including the same, and a method of manufacturing the same. BACKGROUND

[0002] An integrated circuit device is a functional device having a complete circuit function by integrating a large number of active devices and passive devices in a super small size into a single semiconductor substrate, and has a non-detachable structure, and is used in various industrial fields.

[0003] These integrated circuit devices are circuit devices in which transistors, diodes, capacitors, and resistors are densely integrated, and various sizes of resistors are required according to the purpose of electronic equipment in which the integrated circuit device is used.

[0004] Since a resistor device requires a greater resistance than a wiring structure of an integrated circuit device, the resistor device is generally formed on a device isolation film while a gate structure of a transistor is formed in an active region of a semiconductor substrate. For example, since a polysilicon material used in a manufacturing process of a semiconductor device can be doped with various impurities to control resistance, a gate electrode of a transistor and a resistor device can be simultaneously formed using polysilicon.

[0005] On the other hand, since resistance is proportional to the length of polysilicon, a certain length must be secured to implement a high-resistance polysilicon resistor. For example, in the related art, a polysilicon resistor structure having a length of about 1.4 μm and a thickness of about 0.2 μm is inevitably required to implement a high-resistance polysilicon resistor.

[0006] Therefore, in the related art, there is a technical contradiction problem in that it is difficult to implement a super miniaturization of a semiconductor device to implement a high-resistance polysilicon resistor. SUMMARY

[0021] A second depth of the second resistor trench can be equal to a depth of the second device isolation region.

[0022] The resistor polysilicon layer can include a resistor ion implantation region.

[0023] The resistor ion implantation region can be in contact with the resistor insulating layer.

[0024] Further, a horizontal width of the second device isolation region can be greater than a horizontal width of the first device isolation region.

[0025] Further, a depth of the first device isolation region can be the same as a depth of the second device isolation region.

[0026] Further, a material of the resistor insulating layer can be the same as a material of the gate insulating layer.

[0027] In addition, a second depth of the second resistor trench can be greater than a thickness of the second device isolation region.

[0028] In addition, the semiconductor device according to the embodiment can include the resistor device structure of any one of the semiconductor devices.

[0029] According to the embodiment, there is a technical effect of implementing a high-resistance polysilicon resistor while being able to implement a super-fine semiconductor device.

Hereinafter, the "first embodiment" can be abbreviated as "example".

[0050] The semiconductor device 1001 including a polysilicon resistor structure according to the first embodiment can include a semiconductor substrate including a device semiconductor layer 110 and a resistor semiconductor layer 210.

[0051] The device semiconductor layer 110 can be a semiconductor layer on which an active device such as a transistor is formed, and the resistor semiconductor layer 210 can be a semiconductor layer on which a passive device such as a resistor is formed.

[0052] In addition, the embodiment can include a first device isolation region 120 and a second device isolation region 220 disposed on the device semiconductor layer 110 and the resistor semiconductor layer 210 of the semiconductor substrate, respectively.

[0053] The horizontal width of the second device isolation region 220 can be greater than the horizontal width of the first device isolation region 120, but is not limited thereto.

[0054] In addition, the first device isolation region 120 and the second device isolation region 220 can have the same depth, but are not limited thereto.

[0055] For example, the first device isolation region 120 and the second device isolation region 220 can be formed with a predetermined depth L, but are not limited thereto.

[0056] For example, referring to FIG. 1B , the embodiment can include a first resistor trench RT1 formed by partially removing the second device isolation region 220.

[0057] In the first embodiment, the first depth L1 of the first resistor trench RT1 can be at least 1 / 2 of the depth L of the second device isolation region 220.

[0058] Again referring to FIG. 1A , the embodiment can form the first resistor trench RT1 at at least 1 / 2 of the depth L of the second device isolation region 220, and then form the resistor insulating layer 230 and the resistor polysilicon layer 240 on the first resistor trench RT1.

[0059] Accordingly, according to the embodiment, by forming the resistor polysilicon layer 240 on the first resistor trench RT1 formed with a depth of at least half of the depth L of the second device isolation region 220, it is possible to maximize the length of the resistor polysilicon layer 240 without expanding the size of the semiconductor device, and thus, has the technical effect of realizing a high-resistance polysilicon resistor while being able to realize a super-fine semiconductor device.

[0060] In addition, according to internal research, it has been researched that the surface of the first resistor trench RT1 can be roughened by etching the second device isolation region 220 with a deep depth to form the first resistor trench RT1. It has been researched that roughness can be transferred to the resistor polysilicon layer 240 formed later and cause a resistance change of the resistor device.

[0061] According to the embodiment, after the first resistor trench RT1 is formed, the surface roughness of the first resistor trench RT1 can be improved by a process of forming the resistor insulating layer 230. Accordingly, has the technical effect of preventing roughness from occurring in the resistor polysilicon layer 240 formed thereafter, thereby securing a stable resistance value of the resistor device.

[0066] In addition, the embodiment can include the first ion implantation region 160 on the device semiconductor layer 110 on both sides of the gate electrode 140.

[0067] The device semiconductor layer 110 can be formed as an N-MOS region or a P-MOS region.

[0068] For example, after forming a p-type well (not shown) in the device semiconductor layer 110, n-type dopant ions can be implanted into the p-type well to form the first ion implantation region 160. At this time, LDD ion implantation can also be performed on the resistor polysilicon layer 240.

[0071] For example, the second spacer 250 can be formed on the first polysilicon layer 241 and the second polysilicon layer 243 of the resistor polysilicon layer 240, and the third resistor insulating layer 255 can be formed on the trench polysilicon layer 242, after which the resistor ion implantation region 270 can be formed on the first polysilicon layer 241 and the second polysilicon layer 243 by the second ion implantation SD (see FIG. 7 ).

[0072] Further, the embodiments can include a first silicide 181 disposed on the source region 170 and the drain region 170 of the device region and a second silicide 182 disposed on the gate electrode 140. Further, a third silicide 283 can be formed on the resistor ion implant region 270 of the resistor polysilicon layer 240. The first silicide 181 to the third silicide 283 can be, but are not limited to, NiSi or CoSi2.

[0073] Further, after forming the interlayer insulating layer 310, an opening process is performed to remove a portion of the interlayer insulating layer, and a first wiring 191 and a first metal electrode 192 can be sequentially formed on the exposed first silicide 181. Further, a second wiring (not shown) and a second metal electrode (not shown) can be sequentially formed on the second silicide 182. Further, a third wiring 291 and a third metal electrode 292 can be sequentially formed on the third silicide 283.

[0074] According to the embodiments, there is a technical effect of being able to realize a super-fine semiconductor device while realizing a high-resistance polysilicon resistor.

[0075] For example, according to the embodiments, after forming the first resistor trench RT1 having a depth of at least 1 / 2 of the depth L of the second device isolation region 220, a resistor insulating layer 230 and a resistor polysilicon layer 240 can be formed on the first resistor trench RT1 (see FIG. 4B). FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B ).

[0076] Accordingly, according to the embodiments, by forming the resistor polysilicon layer 240 on the first resistor trench RT1 formed to a depth of at least 1 / 2 of the depth L of the second device isolation region 220, it is possible to maximize the length of the resistor polysilicon layer 240 without enlarging the size of the semiconductor device, and thus, there is a technical effect of being able to realize a super-fine semiconductor device while realizing a high-resistance polysilicon resistor.

[0077] Further, according to the present embodiments, after forming the first resistor trench RT1, by the process of forming the resistor insulating layer 230, it is possible to improve the roughness of the surface of the first resistor trench RT1, thereby preventing the occurrence of roughness in the resistor polysilicon layer 240 formed subsequently, thereby providing a technical effect of securing a stable resistance value of the resistor device.

[0078] Next, FIG. 2A is a cross-sectional view of a semiconductor device 1002 including a polysilicon resistor structure according to a second embodiment.

[0082] According to the second embodiment, the length of the resistor polysilicon layer 240 can be maximized without causing an electrical short due to the resistor insulating layer 230. Accordingly, there is a special technical effect capable of implementing a high-resistance polysilicon resistor while also implementing an ultra-fine semiconductor device.

[0083] Further, through the process of forming the second resistor trench RT2 by etching the second device isolation region 220 to a deep depth, the surface of the second resistor trench RT2 can become rough, and a problem of roughness being transferred to the resistor polysilicon layer 240 formed later and causing resistance fluctuation of the resistor device has been researched.

[0084] According to the embodiment, after the second resistor trench RT2 is formed, the roughness of the surface of the second resistor trench RT2 can be improved through the process of forming the resistor insulating layer 230, and thus roughness can be prevented in the resistor polysilicon layer 240 formed later, thereby providing a special technical effect capable of securing a stable resistance value of the resistor device.

[0092] For example, the first device isolation region 120 and the second device isolation region 220 can be formed with a predetermined depth L, but are not limited thereto.

[0093] Next, referring to FIG. 4A A portion of the second device isolation region 220 can be removed to form the first resistor trench RT1. FIG. 4A The first resistor trench RT1 can correspond to FIG. 1A of the first embodiment.

[0121] For example, the doping of the second ion implantation SD can be a high-concentration n-type dopant ion implantation process, and the high-concentration n-type dopant can be doped at a concentration of 5E15 / cm 2 to 8E15 / cm 2 with an energy of about 50 keV to 80 keV, but is not limited thereto.

[0122] Further, after the second spacer 250 and the third resistor insulating layer 255 are formed on the resistor polysilicon layer 240 on the resistor semiconductor layer 210, a resistor ion implantation region 270 can be formed by the second ion implantation SD.

[0123] For example, after the second spacer 250 is formed on the first and second polysilicon layers 241 and 243 of the resistor polysilicon layer 240 and the third resistor insulating layer 255 is formed on the trench polysilicon layer 242, the resistor ion implantation region 270 can be formed on the first and second polysilicon layers 241 and 243 by the second ion implantation SD.

[0124] The resistor ion implantation region 270 can be in contact with the resistor insulating layer 230, but is not limited thereto.

[0125] Next, as shown in FIG. 1C, a first silicide 181 can be formed on the source region 170 and the drain region 170 of the device region. A second silicide 182 can be formed on the gate electrode 140. FIG. 8

[0126] A third silicide 283 can be formed on the resistor ion implantation region 270 of the resistor polysilicon layer 240. The first silicide 181 to the third silicide 283 can be NiSi or CoSi2, but are not limited thereto.

[0127] After the interlayer insulating layer 310 is formed, an opening process is performed to remove a portion of the interlayer insulating layer, and a first wiring 191 and a first metal electrode 192 are sequentially formed on the exposed first silicide 181. Further, a second wiring (not shown) and a second metal electrode (not shown) are sequentially formed on the second silicide 182.

[0128] Further, a third wiring 291 and a third metal electrode 292 are sequentially formed on the third silicide 283, thereby forming a semiconductor device having a resistor device according to the embodiment.
