亚20nm节点后栅工艺体硅FinFET器件参数优化研究

文章研究了亚 20nm 节点后栅工艺体硅 FinFET PMOS 器件制作过程中一系列工艺参数对器件微缩的影响。实验结果表明细且陡的梯形Fin结构有更好的性能。文章针对穿通阻挡层（PTSL） 和轻掺杂源漏扩散区 （SDE）的注入条件也进行了仔细地优化。SDE之后没有热退火过程的器件由于在源漏退火之后有更好的晶格再生因而拥有更大的驱动电流。带边功函数器件能够改善短沟道效应，而带中功函数具有更大的驱动电流。器件在微缩过程中针对金属栅的有效功函数需要折衷选择。

Device parameter optimization for sub-20 nm node HK/MG-last bulk FinFETs

Sub-20 nm node bulk FinFET PMOS devices with an all-last high-k/metal gate (HK/MG) process are fabricated and the influence of a series of device parameters on the device scaling is investigated. The high and thin Fin structure with a tapered sidewall shows better performance than the normal Fin structure. The punch through stop layer (PTSL) and source drain extension (SDE) doping profiles are carefully optimized. The device without SDE annealing shows a larger drive current than that with SDE annealing due to better Si crystal regrowth in the amorphous Fin structure after source/drain implantation. The band-edged MG has a better short channel effect immunity, but the lower effective work function (EWF) MG shows a larger driveability. A tradeoff choice for different EWF MGs should be carefully designed for the device's scaling.
