Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same. Background Technology
[0002] The Flip-FET (FFET) was first proposed at the 2024 VLSI conference (reference: First Experimental Demonstration of Self-aligned Flip FET (FFET): a Breakthrough Stacked Transistor Technology with 2.5T Design, Dual-side Active and Interconnects, Haoran Lu, 2024 IEEE VLSI Symposium on Technology and Circuits, T11-4). It combines the self-alignment advantages of the popular monolithic CFET, the low aspect ratio of sequentially stacked CFETs, back-side signal transmission, and back-side stacked field-effect transistor technology, consisting of a pair of back-to-back FinFETs. FFETs are compatible with FinFET processes and offer significant advantages in power consumption and area, making them a promising candidate for next-generation logic transistors.
[0003] In current FFET-based inverters, one side is an NMOS and the other is a PMOS. An isolation layer separates the N and PMOS components. During the source / drain formation process of an FFET, a portion of the fins at the bottom of the source / drain trench needs to be retained as a seed layer for epitaxial growth. Due to the high resistance of this seed layer, the fins at the bottom of the source / drain cannot conduct current, resulting in a reduction in the effective current-carrying fin height. Even with in-situ heavy doping of the source / drain to allow the dopant ions to diffuse downwards to the bottom fins, the lateral diffusion will also be the same length, leading to a short-channel effect.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a more efficient and reliable technical solution to enable the fins below the source and drain of the FFET to conduct, increase the effective height of the fins, and suppress the short-channel effect. Summary of the Invention

A plurality of second trenches 122 are formed in the second fin 120, the plurality of second trenches 122 being located between adjacent second gate structures 121. The plurality of second trenches 122 are used for epitaxial growth of source and drain doped layers.
[0048] refer to Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, a second ion implantation region 123 is formed in the second fin 120 at the bottom of the plurality of second trenches 122.
[0049] In some embodiments of this application, the method of forming a second ion implantation region 123 in the second fin 120 at the bottom of the plurality of second trenches 122 includes: referring to Figure 10 As shown, a second shielding layer 124 is formed at the bottom and sidewalls of the plurality of second trenches 122; Reference Figure 11 As shown, a second ion implantation region 123 is formed in the second fins 120 at the bottom of the plurality of second trenches 122 using an ion implantation process; Reference Figure 12 As shown, the second shielding layer 124 is removed.
[0050] In some embodiments of this application, the thickness of the second shielding layer 124 is 3-5 nanometers. The second shielding layer 124 can protect the surface of the second fin 120 from damage. The thickness of the second shielding layer 124 can control the width and depth of the second ion implantation region 123. For example, increasing the thickness of the second shielding layer 124 can reduce the width and depth of the second ion implantation region 123.
[0051] In some embodiments of this application, the width W of the second ion implantation region 123 is 30 to 60 nanometers; the distance D between the second ion implantation region 123 and the isolation layer 120 is 1 to 5 nanometers.
[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the doped ion type of the second ion implantation region 123 is determined according to the transistor type formed by the second fin 120, and the doped ion type of the second ion implantation region 123 is the same as the doping type of the second fin 120.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, the doping concentration of the second ion implantation region 123 is 1e20 to 1e21 cm⁻¹. -2 .
[0054] In the technical solution of this application, before the epitaxial growth of the source and drain layer, the ion implantation region 123 is pre-formed in the second fin 120 below the second trench 122. This does not affect the subsequent epitaxial growth process, and the second fin 120 at the bottom of the second trench 122 can be utilized, effectively increasing the effective height of the second fin 120 and achieving higher performance.
[0055] In the technical solution of this application, by controlling the thickness of the second shielding layer 124, the width and depth of the second ion implantation region 123 can be within a suitable range, thereby improving the effective height of the second fin 120 while improving the short-channel effect.
[0056] refer to Figure 13 As shown, a second doped layer 125 is formed in the plurality of second trenches 122 using an epitaxial growth process, filling the plurality of second trenches 122.

[0058] In the technical solution of this application, to prevent dopant ions in the second doped layer 125 from diffusing into the second ion implantation region 123 and changing its size, the second doped layer 125 adopts a multilayer structure with varying doping concentration. The second undoped layer 125a is undoped, the second low-doped layer 125b has a lower doping concentration, and the second high-doped layer 125c has a higher doping concentration than the second low-doped layer 125b. This structure can further improve the short-channel effect.
[0059] In some embodiments of this application, the doping concentration of the second low-doped layer 125b is 1e20 to 1e21 cm. -2 The doping concentration of the second highly doped layer 125c is 5e20 to 1e21 cm. -2 .

These aspects, which are not the focus of this application, are omitted herein.
[0061] After the field-effect transistors on the second fin 120 are fabricated, the wafer is flipped to begin fabricating the field-effect transistors on the first fin 110. It should be noted that the field-effect transistors on the first fin 110 may be of the same or different type as those on the second fin 120; for example, they may be PMOS or NMOS.

[0068] It should be noted that the process for fabricating a field-effect transistor on the first fin 110 is the same as the process for fabricating a field-effect transistor on the second fin 120. Therefore, this application only briefly describes the process of fabricating a field-effect transistor on the first fin 110 and omits a detailed description of its process steps.
