Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of semiconductor device and integrated circuit process design and manufacturing, specifically to a germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor and its fabrication method. Background Technology

[0002] A key process step of a germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor is to simultaneously grow an intrinsic inner base region located below the region surrounded by the inner sidewall of silicon nitride and a connection base region located below the polysilicon layer cantilever and the inner sidewall of silicon nitride in the outer base region by using a p-type in-situ doped germanium-silicon-carbon selective epitaxial growth method.

[0003] The epitaxial base region, the core intrinsic region of the device obtained through selective epitaxial growth, roughly comprises a silicon buffer layer, a germanium-silicon-carbon layer, and a silicon capping layer in the order of growth. The buffer and capping layers are undoped. Even the germanium-silicon-carbon layer, when subdivided, includes several epitaxial layers, with only the innermost layer being boron-doped. This ensures that the final base region is sufficiently thin to minimize the carrier density over time, thus maximizing the device's cutoff frequency f. T .

[0004] However, since the connecting base region is grown simultaneously with the inner base region, the doping situation of the connecting base region during the growth process is roughly similar to that of the inner base region. That is, only the innermost layer is boron-doped, while the other layers are undoped. Although some boron impurities can diffuse from the heavily doped outer polysilicon layer during growth and subsequent thermal processes, in order to ensure the final ultra-thin inner base region, the diffusion of boron impurities during growth and subsequent thermal processes must be minimized. In other words, there are contradictory requirements for boron doping and diffusion in the inner base region and the connecting base region. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring the requirements of the intrinsic inner base region, the boron doping and diffusion of the connecting base region grown simultaneously cannot be fully optimized independently. This inevitably results in a considerable portion of the final connecting base region having relatively low doping concentration, that is, areas with high resistance. The high resistance of the connecting base region will inevitably lead to the inability to sufficiently reduce the parasitic base region resistance of the entire device.

[0005] As a representative of high-performance silicon-based radio frequency semiconductor devices, the germanium-silicon bipolar transistor, even with structural and process optimizations including the intrinsic region of the base region, achieves very high f-values. T However, if the base region parasitic resistance, one of the most important parasitic parameters, cannot be sufficiently reduced, the final device performance will be significantly compromised, not only in terms of its relationship with f. T Another performance metric that is equally or even more important is the highest oscillation frequency f. maxThe base region parasitic resistance is not small enough, so it cannot be fully improved, thus failing to ensure that the device obtains a sufficiently high RF power gain under high frequency operating conditions. Moreover, a high base region parasitic resistance will directly cause the deterioration of RF noise performance.

[0048] The exposed silicon oxide isolation layer is removed by wet etching using the polycrystalline silicon inner wall as a mask to form an L-shaped silicon oxide inner wall, wherein the bottom of the L-shaped silicon oxide inner wall forms a window area.

[0049] A second polysilicon layer heavily doped with n-type is deposited, and the second polysilicon layer is combined with the inner sidewall of the emitter polysilicon layer to form an n-type heavily doped emitter polysilicon layer.

[0066] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the field region silicon oxide layer and the n-type heavily doped silicon buried layer collector region and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region can cause or enhance the electron depletion state of the n-type heavily doped silicon buried layer collector region and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region adjacent to the field region silicon oxide layer, thereby reducing the electron concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic capacitance of the corresponding base-collector region.

[0067] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the base-collector isolation silicon oxide layer and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region can cause or enhance the electron depletion state of the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region adjacent to the base-collector isolation silicon oxide layer, thereby reducing the electron concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic capacitance of the corresponding base-collector region.

[0068] Reducing the parasitic resistance of the connection base region can decrease the parasitic base region resistance of the dual polycrystalline self-aligned germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor in this embodiment. This not only reduces the resistance at a given ft value... T Increase f under the condition max Furthermore, it can effectively reduce the RF noise figure; and reducing the parasitic capacitance between the base and collector regions can also reduce the noise figure at a given f. T Increase f under the condition max In other words, reducing the parasitic base region resistance and the parasitic base-collector region capacitance can improve the overall device performance, such as RF power and noise, of the dual polycrystalline self-aligned germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor used as an RF device.

[0135] In step S15, see Figure 12 Photolithography of the polysilicon emitter region is performed, and the exposed n-type in-situ heavily doped emitter region polysilicon layer 14 and the underlying emitter-base isolation silicon oxide layer 7 are sequentially etched away using photoresist as a mask to form the n-type heavily doped polysilicon emitter region 14b. Then the photoresist is removed.

[0139] In step S17, see Figure 14 Rapid thermal annealing (RTA) is performed, which on the one hand allows impurities in the polycrystalline silicon emitter region 14b to diffuse into the germanium-silicon-carbon epitaxial inner base region 11 to form an n-type heavily doped single crystal emitter region 15, and on the other hand achieves impurity activation.

[0140] The method for fabricating a germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor provided in this application requires, through process means, not only to reduce the positive charge in the field region silicon oxide layer 4 in the basic structure, but also to introduce negative charge at the interface between the silicon oxide layer 4 and silicon (including the uppermost silicon capping layer in the germanium-silicon-carbon epitaxial base region 11). The effect is as follows:

[0141] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the L-shaped silicon oxide inner sidewall 13a and the uppermost silicon capping layer of the germanium-silicon-carbon epitaxial inner base region 11 can cause or enhance the hole accumulation state of the lower side of the L-shaped silicon oxide inner sidewall 13a and its adjacent p-type connection base region 12, thereby increasing the hole concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic resistance of the corresponding connection base region 12.

[0142] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the field region silicon oxide layer 4 and the n-type heavily doped silicon buried layer collector region 2 and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 can cause or enhance the electron depletion state of the n-type heavily doped silicon buried layer collector region 2 and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 adjacent to the field region silicon oxide layer 4, thereby reducing the electron concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic capacitance of the corresponding base region-collector region.

[0143] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5 and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 can cause or enhance the electron depletion state of the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 adjacent to the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5, thereby reducing the electron concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic capacitance of the corresponding base-collector region.

[0144] Reducing the parasitic resistance of the connection base region 12 can reduce the parasitic base region resistance of the dual polycrystalline self-aligned germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor in this embodiment. This not only reduces the resistance at a given f... T Increase f under the condition max Furthermore, it can effectively reduce the RF noise figure; and reducing the parasitic capacitance between the base and collector regions can also reduce the noise figure at a given f. T Increase f under the condition max In other words, reducing the parasitic base region resistance and the parasitic base-collector region capacitance can improve the overall device performance, such as RF power and noise, of the dual polycrystalline self-aligned germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor used as an RF device.

[0145] In some embodiments, after depositing the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5, the positive charge in the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5 is reduced by processes such as annealing, and a negative charge is introduced at the interface where the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5 connects to the silicon epitaxial collector region 3 by processes such as electron implantation or ion implantation; after depositing the silicon oxide isolation layer 13, the positive charge in the silicon oxide isolation layer 13 is reduced by processes such as annealing, and a negative charge is introduced at the interface where the silicon oxide isolation layer 13 connects to the germanium-silicon-carbon epitaxial inner base region 11 and the connecting base region 12 by processes such as electron implantation or ion implantation; after depositing the silicon oxide isolation layer 13, the positive charge in the silicon oxide isolation layer 13 is reduced by processes such as annealing, and a negative charge is introduced at the interface where the silicon oxide isolation layer 13 connects to the germanium-silicon-carbon epitaxial inner base region 11 and the connecting base region 12 by processes such as electron implantation or ion implantation.

[0154] For details, see Figure 16 By utilizing the silicide reaction between refractory metal and exposed monocrystalline and polycrystalline silicon, a low-resistance metal silicide layer is formed through self-alignment, thereby forming an emitter silicide electrode 16 and a base silicide electrode 17, respectively.

[0155] Finally, the germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor can also be fabricated using back-end metallization processes in this field. It should be noted that, considering that this application does not impose any restrictions on the collector and substrate lead-out methods, or the number and relative positions of the emitter, base, collector, and substrate electrodes of the germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor, the electrode lead-out methods of the collector and substrate regions and all electrode configurations are not fully illustrated in the specification and related process flow diagrams of this application. However, all of these can be implemented using common techniques in this field.

[0173] The negative charge introduced at the interface between the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5 and the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 can cause or enhance the electron depletion state of the n-type lightly doped silicon epitaxial collector region 3 adjacent to the base-collector region isolation silicon oxide layer 5, thereby reducing the electron concentration in the corresponding region and effectively reducing the parasitic capacitance of the corresponding base-collector region.

[0174] Reducing the parasitic resistance of the connection base region 12 can reduce the parasitic base region resistance of the dual polycrystalline self-aligned germanium-silicon heterojunction npn bipolar transistor in this embodiment.
