Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor device, and more particularly to a semiconductor device having improved reliability and performance. [Background technology]

[0002] As one of the scaling technologies for increasing the density of semiconductor devices, a multi-gate transistor has been proposed in which a multi-channel active pattern (or silicon body) in the shape of a fin or nanowire is formed on a substrate and a gate is formed on the surface of the multi-channel active pattern.

[0003] Such multi-gate transistors are easy to scale because they use a three-dimensional channel. Moreover, the current control capability can be improved without increasing the gate length of the multi-gate transistor. In addition, it is possible to effectively suppress the short channel effect (SCE), in which the potential of the channel region is affected by the drain voltage. Improving the reliability and performance of such multi-gate transistors presents further challenges. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0011] Next, specific examples of embodiments for carrying out the semiconductor device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0012] In the drawings relating to the semiconductor device according to the embodiment of the present invention, as examples, a FinFET including a channel region having a fin-shaped pattern, a transistor including a nanowire or nanosheet, and a Multi-Bridge Channel Field Effect Transistor (MBCFET) (registered trademark) are shown. However, semiconductor devices according to embodiments of the present invention may include tunneling transistors, three-dimensional (3D) transistors, planar transistors, and 2D material based FETs and their heterostructures. Additionally, the semiconductor device according to the embodiment of the present invention may include a bipolar junction transistor, a lateral double-diffused transistor (LDMOS), and the like.

[0013] FIG. 1 is a schematic layout diagram of a semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 2 to 8 are cross-sectional views taken along lines AA, BB, CC, DD, EE, FF and GG in FIG. 1, respectively. FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of a portion P in FIG. For convenience of explanation, interlayer insulating films (190, 191, 192), wiring structure 205, and the like are not shown in FIG.

[0014] 1 to 9, a semiconductor device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes, on a substrate 100, first to sixth fin-type patterns (110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610), first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320), first and second element isolation structures (165, 166), a first source / drain contact 171, a second source / drain contact 172, first and second interconnected source / drain contacts (181, 182), and a gate isolation structure 160.

[0015] For example, the substrate 100 can be bulk silicon or silicon-on-insulator (SOI). As another example, the substrate 100 can be a silicon substrate or can include other materials, such as silicon germanium, silicon germanium on insulator (SGOI), indium antimonide, lead telluride, indium arsenide, indium phosphide, gallium arsenide, or gallium antimonide.

[0016] The first fin-type pattern 110 , the third fin-type pattern 310 , and the fifth fin-type pattern 510 are disposed on the substrate 100 . The first fin-type pattern 110, the third fin-type pattern 310, and the fifth fin-type pattern 510 are formed in a first active region RX1 of the substrate 100. The first fin type pattern 110, the third fin type pattern 310, and the fifth fin type pattern 510 extend long along a first direction D1. The first fin type pattern 110, the third fin type pattern 310, and the fifth fin type pattern 510 are aligned in a line along a first direction D1. The first fin-type pattern 110 and the third fin-type pattern 310 are defined by a fin trench FT extending in a first direction D1.

[0017] The fin trench FT defines the sidewalls of the first fin-type pattern 110 and the third fin-type pattern 310 . The fifth fin-type pattern 510 is defined by a fin trench FT. The second fin-type pattern 210 , the fourth fin-type pattern 410 , and the sixth fin-type pattern 610 are disposed on the substrate 100 . The second fin-type pattern 210, the fourth fin-type pattern 410, and the sixth fin-type pattern 610 are formed in the second active region RX2. The second fin type pattern 210, the fourth fin type pattern 410, and the sixth fin type pattern 610 extend long along a first direction D1. The second fin type pattern 210, the fourth fin type pattern 410, and the sixth fin type pattern 610 are aligned in a line along a first direction D1.

[0018] The second fin-type pattern 210 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 are defined by fin trenches FT extending in a first direction D1. The second fin pattern 210 is spaced apart from the first fin pattern 110 in the second direction D2. The fourth fin pattern 410 is spaced apart from the third fin pattern 310 in the second direction D2. The sixth fin pattern 610 is spaced apart from the fifth fin pattern 510 in the second direction D2. Here, the first direction D1 intersects with the second direction D2 and the third direction D3. In addition, the second direction D2 intersects with the third direction D3. The third direction D3 is a direction perpendicular to the upper surface of the substrate 100.

[0019] The field region FX is disposed between the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2. The field region FX is defined by a deep trench DT that is deeper than the fin trench FT. The deep trench DT defines a first active region RX1 and a second active region RX2. For example, the deep trench DT extends long in the first direction D1. The deep trenches DT are continuously formed between the first fin type pattern 110 and the second fin type pattern 210, between the third fin type pattern 310 and the fourth fin type pattern 410, and between the fifth fin type pattern 510 and the sixth fin type pattern 610. In the semiconductor device according to the embodiment, the deep trench DT separates a first active region RX1 and a second active region RX2.

[0020] For example, one of the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2 may be an NMOS forming region, and the other may be a PMOS forming region. As another example, the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2 may be a PMOS formation region. As another example, the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2 may be NMOS formation regions.

[0021] The first to sixth fin-type patterns (110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610) are each a part of the substrate 100, and include an epitaxial layer grown from the substrate 100. Each of the first to sixth fin-type patterns (110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610) may include, for example, an elemental semiconductor material such as silicon or germanium. Furthermore, each of the first to sixth fin-type patterns (110, 210, 310, 410, 510, 610) may include a compound semiconductor, for example, a IV-IV group compound semiconductor or a III-V group compound semiconductor.

[0022] The IV-IV compound semiconductor may be, for example, a binary compound containing at least two of carbon (C), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), and tin (Sn), a ternary compound, or a compound doped with a Group IV element. The III-V compound semiconductor may be, for example, one of a binary compound, a ternary compound, or a quaternary compound formed by combining at least one of aluminum (Al), gallium (Ga), and indium (In) as a group III element with one of phosphorus (P), arsenic (As), and antimonium (Sb) as a group V element.

[0023] As an example, the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1 includes the same material as the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2. As another example, the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1 may include other materials than the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2.

[0024] The first fin pattern 110 and the second fin pattern 210 will be taken as examples for explanation. Although the number of the first fin-type patterns 110 arranged in the first active region RX1 is shown to be the same as the number of the second fin-type patterns 210 arranged in the second active region RX2, this is not limited thereto. For example, the figure shows a case in which there are two first fin-type patterns 110 arranged in the first active region RX1 and two second fin-type patterns 210 arranged in the second active region RX2, but this is not limited to this. Of course, the number of the first fin-type patterns 110 disposed in the first active region RX1 and the number of the second fin-type patterns 210 disposed in the second active region RX2 may be one or more than two.

[0025] The following description will be given using the first to fourth fin patterns (110, 210, 310, 410). The field insulating film 105 is disposed around the first to fourth fin patterns (110, 210, 310, 410). Although not shown in the figure, the field insulating film 105 may be disposed around the fifth fin-type pattern 510 and the sixth fin-type pattern 610. The field insulating film 105 fills the deep trench DT. The field insulating film 105 fills a part of the fin trench FT. Taking the first fin-type pattern 110 and the second fin-type pattern 210 as an example, the field insulating film 105 is formed on a part of the sidewall of the first fin-type pattern 110 and a part of the sidewall of the second fin-type pattern 210 .

[0026] The first to fourth fin patterns (110, 210, 310, 410) protrude above the upper surface of the field insulating film 105, respectively. The fifth fin-type pattern 510 and the sixth fin-type pattern 610 also protrude from the upper surface of the field insulating film 105 . The field insulating film 105 may include, for example, an oxide film, a nitride film, an oxynitride film, or a combination thereof.

[0027] The first isolation structure 165 and the second isolation structure 166 are disposed across the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2, respectively. The first element isolation structure 165 and the second element isolation structure 166 each extend long in the second direction D2. The first element isolation structure 165 separates the first fin-type pattern 110 and the third fin-type pattern 310 adjacent to each other in the first direction D1. The first isolation structure 165 separates the second fin-type pattern 210 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 adjacent to each other in the first direction D1. The second element isolation structure 166 separates the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fifth fin-type pattern 510 adjacent to each other in the first direction D1. The second isolation structure 166 separates the fourth fin-type pattern 410 and the sixth fin-type pattern 610, which are adjacent to each other in the first direction D1. The description of the second element isolation structure 166 is substantially the same as the description of the first element isolation structure 165, so the following description will focus on the first element isolation structure 165.

[0028] The first isolation structure 165 includes a first sidewall (165_LS1) and a second sidewall (165_LS2). A first sidewall (165_LS1) of the first isolation structure and a second sidewall (165_LS2) of the first isolation structure each extend long in a second direction D2. The first sidewall (165_LS1) of the first isolation structure is located opposite to the second sidewall (165_LS2) of the first isolation structure in the first direction D1.

[0029] The first fin-type pattern 110 and the second fin-type pattern 210 each contact the first sidewall (165_LS1) of the first isolation structure. The first fin-type pattern 110 and the second fin-type pattern 210 extend in a first direction D1 from a first sidewall 165_LS1 of the first isolation structure. The third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 each contact the second sidewall (165_LS2) of the first isolation structure. The third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 extend in a first direction D1 from the second sidewall 165_LS2 of the first isolation structure. For example, the upper surface 165US of the first element isolation structure is placed in the same plane as the upper surface of the gate capping pattern (145, 245, 345) described below.

[0030] The first element isolation structure 165 and the second element isolation structure 166 may be made of silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon oxide (SiO 2 ), silicon oxycarbonitride (SiOCN), silicon boron nitride (SiBN), silicon oxyboron nitride (SiOBN), silicon oxycarbide (SiOC), aluminum oxide (AlO), and combinations thereof. Each of the first isolation structure 165 and the second isolation structure 166 may be a single layer or multiple layers. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the isolation structure spacer 165SP extends along a portion of the first sidewall (165_LS1) of the first isolation structure. The isolation structure spacer 165SP extends along a portion of the second sidewall (165_LS2) of the first element isolation structure.

[0031] The isolation structure spacers 165SP contain the same material as the gate spacers (140, 240, 340) described below. As another example, the isolation structure spacer 165SP does not have to be disposed on the sidewalls (165_LS1, 165_LS2) of the first element isolation structure.

[0032] The first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) each extend in a second direction D2. The first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) are disposed on the field insulating film 105, respectively. The first gate electrode 120 is disposed on the first active region RX1 and is not disposed on the second active region RX2. For example, the first gate electrode 120 is disposed only on the first active region RX1. The first gate electrode 120 is disposed on the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1. The first gate electrode 120 is not disposed on the fin-type patterns (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2.

[0033] The second gate electrode 220 is disposed on the second active region RX2 and is not disposed on the first active region RX1. For example, the second gate electrode 220 is disposed only on the second active region RX2. The second gate electrode 220 is disposed on the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2. The second gate electrode 220 is not disposed on the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1. The third gate electrode 320 is disposed continuously across the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2. The third gate electrode 320 is disposed on the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1. The third gate electrode 320 is disposed on the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2.

[0034] The first gate electrode 120 and the second gate electrode 220 are spaced apart from each other in the second direction D2 and aligned with each other in the second direction D2. The first gate electrode 120 is disposed to correspond to the second gate electrode 220 . The third gate electrode 320 is spaced apart from the first gate electrode 120 in the first direction D1. The third gate electrode 320 is spaced apart from the second gate electrode 220 in the first direction D1. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the first gate electrodes 120 and the second gate electrodes 220 have a one-to-one correspondence. As another example, at least one of the first gate electrodes 120 may be disposed in the second active region RX2 and may face an insulating material gate extending in the second direction D2. As another example, at least one of the second gate electrodes 220 is disposed in the first active region RX1 and faces an insulating material gate extending in the second direction D2. The insulating material gates are similar to the isolation structures (165, 166) described above.

[0035] For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the upper surface of the gate electrode (120, 220, 320) includes a concave curved surface. Before forming a gate capping pattern (145, 245, 345) described below, a portion of the gate electrode (120, 220, 320) is removed. The etching process that removes a portion of the gate electrode (120, 220, 320) may turn at least a portion of the top surface of the gate electrode (120, 220, 320) into a concave curved surface. For example, the top surface of the first gate electrode 120 and the top surface of the second gate electrode 220 have a concave shape in the cross-sectional view of FIG.

[0036] The first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) are each made of, for example, titanium nitride (TiN), tantalum carbide (TaC), tantalum nitride (TaN), titanium silicon nitride (TiSiN), tantalum silicon nitride (TaSiN), tantalum titanium nitride (TaTiN), titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN), tantalum aluminum nitride (TaAlN), tungsten nitride (WN), ruthenium (Ru), titanium aluminum (TiAl), titanium aluminum carbonitride (TiAlC-N), titanium aluminum carbide (TiAlC), titanium carbide (TiC), tantalum carbonitride, etc. The metal oxide may include at least one of titanium (TaCN), tungsten (W), aluminum (Al), copper (Cu), cobalt (Co), titanium (Ti), tantalum (Ta), nickel (Ni), platinum (Pt), nickel platinum (Ni-Pt), niobium (Nb), niobium nitride (NbN), niobium carbide (NbC), molybdenum (Mo), molybdenum nitride (MoN), molybdenum carbide (MoC), tungsten carbide (WC), rhodium (Rh), palladium (Pd), iridium (Ir), osmium (Os), silver (Ag), gold (Au), zinc (Zn), vanadium (V), and combinations thereof.

[0037] The first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) may each include a conductive metal oxide, a conductive metal oxynitride, or the like, and may include the oxidized forms of the above-mentioned materials. The first gate electrode 120 and the second gate electrode 220 are separated by a gate isolation structure 160 . The gate isolation structure 160 separates the first gate electrode 120 and the second gate electrode 220 in a second direction D2. A gate isolation structure 160 is disposed on the field region FX. A gate isolation structure 160 is disposed on the field dielectric 105 . The gate isolation structure 160 separates the corresponding first and second gate electrodes 120 and 220 from each other.

[0038] The gate isolation structure 160 may be made of, for example, silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon oxide (SiO 2 ), silicon oxycarbonitride (SiOCN), silicon boron nitride (SiBN), silicon oxyboron nitride (SiOBN), silicon oxycarbide (SiOC), aluminum oxide (AlO), and combinations thereof. Although the gate isolation structure 160 is shown as being a single film, it is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, a portion of the gate isolation structure 160 is recessed into the field insulating film 105, but the present invention is not limited to this. An upper surface 160US of the gate isolation structure is flush with an upper surface of the first gate capping pattern 145 and an upper surface of the second gate capping pattern 245 .

[0039] The first gate spacers 140 are disposed on the sidewalls of the first gate electrode 120 . The second gate spacers 240 are disposed on the sidewalls of the second gate electrode 220 . The third gate spacers 340 are disposed on the sidewalls of the third gate electrode 320 . The first to third gate spacers (140, 240, 340) extend along the second direction D2. The first to third gate spacers (140, 240, 340) are made of, for example, silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon oxide (SiO 2 ), silicon oxycarbonitride (SiOCN), silicon boron nitride (SiBN), silicon oxyboron nitride (SiOBN), silicon oxycarbide (SiOC), and combinations thereof.

[0040] The first gate insulating film 130 extends along the sidewalls and bottom surface of the first gate electrode 120 . The first gate insulating film 130 is disposed between the first gate electrode 120 and the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1. The second gate insulating film 230 extends along the sidewalls and bottom surface of the second gate electrode 220 . The second gate insulating film 230 is disposed between the second gate electrode 220 and the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2. The third gate insulating film 330 extends along the sidewalls and bottom surface of the third gate electrode 320 . The third gate insulating film 330 is disposed between the third gate electrode 320 and the fin-type pattern (110, 310, 510) disposed in the first active region RX1. The third gate insulating film 330 is disposed between the third gate electrode 320 and the fin-type pattern (210, 410, 610) disposed in the second active region RX2.

[0041] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the first gate insulating film 130 is formed along the profile of the third fin-type pattern 310 protruding above the field insulating film 105 and along the upper surface of the field insulating film 105 . The second gate insulating film 230 is formed along the profile of the fourth fin-type pattern 410 protruding above the field insulating film 105 and along the upper surface of the field insulating film 105 . For example, as shown in FIG. 7, the third gate insulating layer 330 is formed along the profiles of the first fin-type pattern 110 and the second fin-type pattern 210 protruding above the field insulating layer 105 and along the top surface of the field insulating layer 105 . For example, the first gate insulating film 130 includes an interface film along the profile of the third fin-type pattern 310 protruding above the field insulating film 105 . For example, the interfacial film may include, but is not limited to, silicon oxide.

[0042] For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the first gate insulating film 130 extends along the sidewalls of the first gate electrode 120 and the sidewalls of the gate isolation structure 160 facing in the second direction D2. The second gate insulating film 230 extends along the sidewalls of the second gate electrode 220 and the sidewalls of the gate isolation structure 160 facing in the second direction D2. The first to third gate insulating films (130, 230, 330) may include silicon oxide, silicon oxynitride, silicon nitride, or a high dielectric constant material having a dielectric constant greater than that of silicon oxide.

[0043] The high dielectric constant material may include, for example, one or more of boron nitride, hafnium oxide, hafnium silicon oxide, hafnium aluminum oxide, lanthanum oxide, lanthanum aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, zirconium silicon oxide, tantalum oxide, titanium oxide, barium strontium titanium oxide, barium titanium oxide, strontium titanium oxide, yttrium oxide, aluminum oxide, lead scandium tantalum oxide, or lead zinc niobate.

[0044] A semiconductor device according to an embodiment includes an NC (Negative Capacitance) FET using a negative capacitance. For example, the first to third gate insulating films (130, 230, 330) each include a ferroelectric material film having ferroelectric properties and a paraelectric material film having paraelectric properties. The ferroelectric material film has a negative capacitance, and the paraelectric material film has a positive capacitance. For example, when two or more capacitors are connected in series and the capacitance of each capacitor has a positive value, the total capacitance is less than the capacitance of each individual capacitor. On the other hand, when at least one of the capacitances of two or more capacitors connected in series has a negative value, the total capacitance has a positive value and may be greater than the absolute value of each individual capacitance.

[0045] When a ferroelectric material layer having a negative capacitance and a paraelectric material layer having a positive capacitance are connected in series, the total capacitance value of the series-connected ferroelectric material layer and paraelectric material layer increases. With this increased overall capacitance, a transistor including a ferroelectric material film can have a subthreshold swing (SS) of less than 60 mV / decade at room temperature. The ferroelectric material film has ferroelectric properties.

[0046] The ferroelectric material film may include, for example, at least one of hafnium oxide, hafnium zirconium oxide, barium strontium titanium oxide, barium titanium oxide, and lead zirconium titanium oxide. Here, as an example, hafnium zirconium oxide is a material in which hafnium oxide is doped with zirconium (Zr). As another example, hafnium zirconium oxide is a compound of hafnium (Hf), zirconium (Zr) and oxygen (O).

[0047] The ferroelectric material film further includes a dopant. For example, the dopant may include at least one of aluminum (Al), titanium (Ti), niobium (Nb), lanthanum (La), yttrium (Y), magnesium (Mg), silicon (Si), calcium (Ca), cerium (Ce), dysprosium (Dy), erbium (Er), gadolinium (Gd), germanium (Ge), scandium (Sc), strontium (Sr), and tin (Sn). The type of dopant contained in the ferroelectric material layer varies depending on the type of ferroelectric material contained in the ferroelectric material layer. When the ferroelectric material film includes hafnium oxide, the dopant included in the ferroelectric material film may include, for example, at least one of gadolinium (Gd), silicon (Si), zirconium (Zr), aluminum (Al), and yttrium (Y).

[0048] When the dopant is aluminum (Al), the ferroelectric material film may contain 3 to 8 at % (atomic %) of aluminum. Here, the ratio of the dopant is the ratio of aluminum to the sum of hafnium and aluminum. When the dopant is silicon (Si), the ferroelectric material film contains 2 to 10 at % of silicon. When the dopant is yttrium (Y), the ferroelectric material film contains 2 to 10 at % of yttrium. When the dopant is gadolinium (Gd), the ferroelectric material film contains 1 to 7 at % of gadolinium. When the dopant is zirconium (Zr), the ferroelectric material film contains 50 to 80 at % of zirconium.

[0049] The paraelectric material film has paraelectric properties. The paraelectric material film may include, for example, at least one of silicon oxide and metal oxide having a high dielectric constant. The metal oxide included in the paraelectric material film may include, for example, at least one of hafnium oxide, zirconium oxide, and aluminum oxide. The ferroelectric material film and the paraelectric material film include the same material. A ferroelectric material film has ferroelectric properties, whereas a paraelectric material film does not necessarily have ferroelectric properties. For example, when the ferroelectric material layer and the paraelectric material layer contain hafnium oxide, the crystal structure of the hafnium oxide contained in the ferroelectric material layer may be different from the crystal structure of the hafnium oxide contained in the paraelectric material layer.

[0050] The ferroelectric material film has a thickness such that it has ferroelectric properties. The thickness of the ferroelectric material film is, for example, 0.5 to 10 nm. Since each ferroelectric material has a different critical thickness at which it exhibits ferroelectric properties, the thickness of the ferroelectric material film varies depending on the ferroelectric material. As an example, each of the first to third gate insulating layers 130, 230, and 330 includes a ferroelectric material layer. As another example, each of the first to third gate insulating layers (130, 230, 330) may include a plurality of ferroelectric material layers spaced apart from each other. Each of the first to third gate insulating films (130, 230, 330) has a laminated film structure in which a plurality of ferroelectric material films and a plurality of paraelectric material films are alternately laminated.

[0051] The first to third gate capping patterns (145, 245, 345) are disposed on the first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320). In addition, the first to third gate capping patterns (145, 245, 345) are disposed on the upper surfaces of the first to third gate spacers (140, 240, 340). The first to third gate capping patterns (145, 245, 345) are each made of, for example, silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon oxide (SiO 2 ), silicon carbonitride (SiCN), silicon oxycarbonitride (SiOCN), and combinations thereof.

[0052] Unlike the illustration, the first to third gate capping patterns (145, 245, 345) may be disposed between the first to third gate spacers (140, 240, 340), respectively. In this case, taking the first gate capping pattern 145 as an example, the top surface of the first gate capping pattern 145 is flush with the top surface of the first gate spacer 140 . The first source / drain pattern 150 is disposed on the first fin-type pattern 110 . The first source / drain pattern 150 is connected to the first fin-shaped pattern 110 . The third source / drain pattern 350 is disposed on the third fin-type pattern 310 . The third source / drain pattern 350 is connected to the third fin-shaped pattern 310 . The first source / drain pattern 150 and the third source / drain pattern 350 are disposed in the first active region RX1.

[0053] The second source / drain pattern 250 is disposed on the second fin-type pattern 210 . The second source / drain pattern 250 is connected to the second fin-shaped pattern 210 . A fourth source / drain pattern 450 is disposed on the fourth fin-type pattern 410 . The fourth source / drain pattern 450 is connected to the fourth fin-shaped pattern 410 . The second source / drain pattern 250 and the fourth source / drain pattern 450 are disposed in the second active region RX2. The second source / drain pattern 250 is separated from the first source / drain pattern 150 in a second direction D2. That is, the second source / drain pattern 250 is not directly connected to the first source / drain pattern 150 . The third source / drain pattern 350 is separated from the fourth source / drain pattern 450 in the second direction D2.

[0054] The first source / drain pattern 150 is connected to the plurality of first fin-type patterns 110 . The second source / drain pattern 250 is connected to the plurality of second fin-type patterns 210 . The third source / drain pattern 350 is connected to the plurality of third fin-type patterns 310 . The fourth source / drain pattern 450 is connected to the plurality of fourth fin-type patterns 410 . The first to fourth source / drain patterns (150, 250, 350, 450) are each a shared epitaxial pattern.

[0055] The first to fourth source / drain patterns (150, 250, 350, 450) are included in the source / drain of a transistor that uses the first to fourth fin-type patterns (110, 210, 310, 410) as a channel region, respectively. For example, a source / drain pattern is disposed on the fifth fin-type pattern 510 and the sixth fin-type pattern 610. The following description will be given using the first to fourth source / drain patterns (150, 250, 350, 450).

[0056] The source / drain etch stop layer 156 is disposed on the sidewalls of the first to third gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) and on the first to fourth source / drain patterns (150, 250, 350, 450). The source / drain etch stop layer 156 includes a material having an etch selectivity with respect to a lower interlayer insulating layer 190, which will be described later. The source / drain etch stop layer 156 may include, for example, at least one of silicon nitride (SiN), silicon oxynitride (SiON), silicon oxycarbonitride (SiOCN), silicon boron nitride (SiBN), silicon oxyboron nitride (SiOBN), silicon oxycarbide (SiOC), and combinations thereof.

[0057] A lower interlayer insulating layer 190 is disposed on the source / drain etch stop layer 156 . The lower interlayer insulating film 190 does not cover the upper surfaces of the first to third gate capping patterns (145, 245, 345). For example, the upper surface of the lower interlayer insulating film 190 may be flush with the upper surfaces of the first gate capping pattern 145 , the second gate capping pattern 245 , and the third gate capping pattern 345 . The upper surface of the lower interlayer insulating film 190 is placed in the same plane as the upper surface 165US of the first element structure. The lower interlayer insulating layer 190 may include, for example, at least one of silicon oxide, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride, and a low dielectric constant material.

[0058] Examples of low dielectric constant materials include Fluorinated TetraEthylOrthoSilicate (FTEOS), Hydrogen SilsesQuioxane(HSQ), Bis-benzoCycloButene(BCB), TetraMethylOrthoSilicate(TMOS), OctaMethylCloTetraSiloxane(OMCTS), HexaMethylDiSiloxane(HMDS), TriMethylSilyl Borate(TMSB), DiAcetoxyDitertiaryButoSiloxane(DADBS), TriMethylSilil Polyimide nanofoams like Phosphate(TMSP), PolyTetraFluoroEthylene(PTFE), TOSZ(Tonen SilaZen), FSG(Fluoride Silicate Glass), polypropylene oxide, CDO(Carbon Doped silicon Oxide), OSG(Organo Silicate Glass), SiLK, Amorphous Fluorinated These may include, but are not limited to, carbon, silica aerogels, silica xerogels, mesoporous silica, or combinations thereof.

[0059] A first connecting source / drain contact 181 and a second connecting source / drain contact 182 are disposed across the first active region RX1 and the second active region RX2. The first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 each extend long in the second direction D2. The first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 are disposed on the source / drain patterns (150, 350) disposed in the first active region RX1 and the source / drain patterns (250, 450) disposed in the second active region RX2. The first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 are simultaneously connected to the source / drain patterns (150, 350) disposed in the first active region RX1 and the source / drain patterns (250, 450) disposed in the second active region RX2. The first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 are disposed on the fin-type pattern (110, 310) disposed on the first active region RX1 and the fin-type pattern (210, 410) disposed on the second active region RX2.

[0060] The first source / drain contact 171 is disposed on the source / drain pattern (150, 350) disposed in the first active region RX1. The second source / drain contact 172 is disposed on the source / drain pattern (250, 450) disposed in the second active region RX2. The first source / drain contact 171 is connected to the first and third source / drain patterns 150 and 350, but is not connected to the second and fourth source / drain patterns 250 and 450. The second source / drain contact 172 is connected to the second and fourth source / drain patterns 250 and 450, but is not connected to the first and third source / drain patterns 150 and 350.

[0061] For example, the second connection source / drain contact 182 , the first source / drain contact 171 , and the second source / drain contact 172 may be additionally disposed on the first source / drain pattern 150 and / or the second source / drain pattern 250 . The first connecting source / drain contact 181, the second connecting source / drain contact 182, the first source / drain contact 171 and the second source / drain contact 172 are disposed in the lower interlayer insulating film 190, respectively.

[0062] The first silicide film 155 is formed between the first source / drain pattern 150 and the source / drain contacts (181, 182, 171). A second silicide film 255 is formed between the second source / drain pattern 250 and the source / drain contacts (181, 182, 172). A third silicide film 355 is formed between the third source / drain pattern 350 and the source / drain contacts (181, 182, 171). A fourth silicide film 455 is formed between the fourth source / drain pattern 250 and the source / drain contacts (181, 182, 172). The first to fourth silicide films (155, 255, 355, 455) may each include, for example, a metal silicide material.

[0063] The first interconnecting source / drain contacts 181 are disposed between the element isolation structures (165, 166) and the gate electrodes (120, 220, 320). An isolation structure (165, 166) is disposed on one side of the first connection source / drain contact 181, and a gate electrode (120, 220, 320) is disposed on the other side of the first connection source / drain contact 181. The first interconnection source / drain contact 181 is, for example, an interconnection source / drain contact that is closest to the element isolation structure (165, 166) in the first direction D1. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the isolation structure 165 is disposed between two first source / drain contacts 181 . That is, no additional gate electrode (120, 220, 320) is disposed between the first interconnection source / drain contact 181 and the element isolation structure (165, 166). In one embodiment of the semiconductor device, first interconnect source / drain contacts 181 are disposed on both sides of the isolation structures 165 and 166. In other words, the isolation structures (165, 166) are disposed between the first interconnection source / drain contacts 181 adjacent in the first direction D1.

[0064] For example, the first connection source / drain contact 181 connected to the first source / drain pattern 150 and the second source / drain pattern 250 is disposed between the first isolation structure 165 and the third gate electrode 320 . As another example, the first connecting source / drain contact 181 connected to the first source / drain pattern 150 and the second source / drain pattern 250 may be arranged between the first element isolation structure 165 and the first gate electrode 120 and between the first element isolation structure 165 and the second gate electrode 220.

[0065] For example, the first connecting source / drain contact 181 connected to the third source / drain pattern 350 and the fourth source / drain pattern 450 is disposed between the first element isolation structure 165 and the first gate electrode 120 and between the first element isolation structure 165 and the second gate electrode 220. As another example, the first connection source / drain contact 181 connected to the third source / drain pattern 350 and the fourth source / drain pattern 450 may be disposed between the first isolation structure 165 and the third gate electrode 320 . Since the description of the first connecting source / drain contact 181 closest to the second element isolation structure 166 is substantially the same as the description of the first connecting source / drain contact 181 closest to the first element isolation structure 165, the following description will focus on the first element isolation structure 165.

[0066] The second connecting source / drain contacts 182 are disposed between adjacent gate electrodes (120, 220, 320) in the first direction D1. The second interconnection source / drain contact 182 is not the interconnection source / drain contact most adjacent to the isolation structure (165, 166). That is, at least one gate electrode (120, 220, 320) is disposed between the second connecting source / drain contact 182 and the element isolation structure (165, 166).

[0067] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the first gate electrode 120 and the second gate electrode 220 are disposed on one side of the second connecting source / drain contact 182 , and the third gate electrode 320 is disposed on the other side of the second connecting source / drain contact 182 . As another example, the first gate electrode 120 and the second gate electrode 220 may be disposed on one side of the second connection source / drain contact 182 and the other side of the second connection source / drain contact 182 . As another example, the second interconnecting source / drain contacts 182 may be disposed between the third gate electrodes 320 .

[0068] For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 are both disposed on the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 . As another example, an additional third isolation structure may be disposed between the first connecting source / drain contact 181 and the second connecting source / drain contact 182. In such a case, the first connecting source / drain contact 181 is disposed on the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410, but the second connecting source / drain contact 182 is not disposed on the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410. A second interconnection source / drain contact 182 is disposed on the seventh and eighth fin-type patterns disposed between the second isolation structure 166 and the third isolation structure.

[0069] In the following, a case where the first connection source / drain contact 181 and the second connection source / drain contact 182 are both disposed on the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410 will be described. The first interconnection source / drain contact 181 includes a first lower contact region 181B, a first upper contact region 181UC, and a first dummy contact region 181UD. The first lower contact region 181B intersects with the first fin-type pattern 110 and the second fin-type pattern 210. The first lower contact region 181B is connected to the first source / drain pattern 150 and the second source / drain pattern 250 simultaneously. For example, the first lower contact region 181B is connected to the first source / drain pattern 150 and the second source / drain pattern 250 at the same time. The first lower contact region 181B intersects with the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410. The first lower contact region 181B is connected to the third source / drain pattern 350 and the fourth source / drain pattern 450 simultaneously.

[0070] The first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD protrude from the first lower contact region 181B in the third direction D3. For example, the third direction D3 is a direction away from the fin pattern. The first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD are spaced apart in the second direction D2. The first connection source / drain contact 181 includes a plurality of contact regions protruding in the third direction D3 from the first lower contact region 181B.

[0071] The first lower contact region 181B is directly connected to the first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD. The first lower contact region 181B, the first upper contact region 181UC, and the first dummy contact region 181UD have an integral structure. For example, an integral structure is one that is homogenous and seam-free and is made of the same material. In the manufacturing process, after a pre-structure of the first connection source / drain contact 181 is formed, a part of the pre-structure is removed. The top surface of the pre-structure of the first connection source / drain contact 181 is flush with the top surface of the lower interlayer insulating film 190 .

[0072] By removing parts of the pre-structure, a first lower contact region 181B, a first upper contact region 181UC, and a first dummy contact region 181UD are formed. A portion of the pre-structure of the first connection source / drain contact 181 is etched to form the first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD, so that there is no boundary separating the first lower contact region 181B and the first upper contact region 181UC, and no boundary separating the first lower contact region 181B and the first dummy contact region 181UD. In other words, no boundary line is visible between the first lower contact region 181B and the first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD.

[0073] The top surface of the first connection source / drain contact 181 is the top surface of the first upper contact region (181UC_US) and the top surface of the first dummy contact region (181UD_US). The top surface of the first upper contact region (181UC_US) and the top surface of the first dummy contact region (181UD_US) are placed in the same plane as the top surface of the lower interlayer insulating film 190. The first lower contact region 181B includes a connecting portion (181B_CR) and a protruding portion (181B_PR). The coupling portion (181B_CR) of the first lower contact region is disposed between the first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD. The protruding portion (181B_PR) of the first lower contact region is a portion that protrudes in the second direction D2 from the first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD. The first upper contact region 181UC and the first dummy contact region 181UD are each disposed between the connection portion (181B_CR) of the first lower contact region and the protruding portion (181B_PR) of the first lower contact region.

[0074] The first upper contact region 181UC is a portion where a via plug 206, which will be described later, is landed. The first interconnection source / drain contact 181 is connected to the wiring structure 205 via a first upper contact region 181UC. The wiring structure 205 contacts the top surface 181UC_US of the first upper contact region. The first dummy contact region 181UD is a portion where the via plug 206 is not landed. The wiring structure 205 does not contact the top surface (181UD_US) of the first dummy contact region. A first etch stop layer 196, which will be described later, continuously covers the entire upper surface (181UD_US) of the first dummy contact region. Some of the contact regions protruding from the first lower contact region 181B in the third direction D3 contact the via plugs 206 penetrating the first etch stop layer 196, and the rest do not contact the via plugs 206.

[0075] As an example, as shown in FIG. 4, a width W12 in the second direction D2 of the top surface (181UD_US) of the first dummy contact region is greater than or equal to a width W11 in the second direction D2 of the top surface (181UC_US) of the first upper contact region. As another example, a width W12 in the second direction D2 of the top surface (181UD_US) of the first dummy contact region may be smaller than a width W11 in the second direction D2 of the top surface (181UC_US) of the first upper contact region. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the first lower contact region 181B includes a first downward protruding region (181_DP) protruding toward the substrate 100 between the first source / drain pattern 150 and the second source / drain pattern 250. As shown in FIG. As another example, the first downward protruding region (181_DP) may contact the source / drain etch stop layer 156 or the field insulating layer 105.

[0076] The first lower contact region 181B includes a first downward protruding region (181_DP). The second interconnected source / drain contact 182 includes a second lower contact region 182B and a second upper contact region 182UC. The second lower contact region 182B intersects with the third fin-type pattern 310 and the fourth fin-type pattern 410. The second lower contact region 182B is connected to the third source / drain pattern 350 and the fourth source / drain pattern 450 simultaneously. The second upper contact region 182UC protrudes from the second lower contact region 182B in the third direction D3. The second connection source / drain contact 182 includes one contact region protruding in the third direction D3 from the second lower contact region 182B. The second lower contact region 182B is directly connected to the second upper contact region 182UC. The second lower contact region 182B and the second upper contact region 182UC have an integrated structure.

[0077] The top surface of the second interconnect source / drain contact 182 is the top surface of the second upper contact region (182UC_US). The upper surface of the second upper contact region (182UC_US) is placed in the same plane as the upper surface of the lower interlayer insulating film 190. The second upper contact region 182UC is a portion where the via plug 206 is landed. The second interconnection source / drain contact 182 is connected to the wiring structure 205 via a second upper contact region 182UC. The wiring structure 205 contacts the top surface of the second upper contact region (182UC_US). For example, as shown in FIG. 6, the second interconnected source / drain contact 182 has a shape similar to a "T" rotated 180 degrees. Depending on the position of the second upper contact region 182UC, the second interconnect source / drain contact 182 may have a shape similar to an "L".
