摘要:
Methods of fabricating semiconductor devices include forming a transistor on and/or in a semiconductor substrate, wherein the transistor includes a source/drain region and a gate pattern disposed on a channel region adjacent the source/drain region. An insulating layer is formed on the transistor and patterned to expose the source/drain region. A semiconductor source layer is formed on the exposed source/drain region and on an adjacent portion of the insulating layer. A metal source layer is formed on the semiconductor source layer. Annealing, is performed to form a first metal-semiconductor compound region on the source/drain region and a second metal-semiconductor compound region on the adjacent portion of the insulating layer. The first metal-semiconductor compound region may be thicker than the second metal-semiconductor compound region. The metal source layer may include a metal layer and a metal nitride barrier layer.

Methods of forming a semiconductor device include providing a substrate having an area including a source and a drain region of a transistor. A nickel (Ni) metal film is formed on the substrate area including the source and the drain region. A first heat-treatment process is performed including heating the substrate including the metal film from a first temperature to a second temperature at a first ramping rate and holding the substrate including the metal film at the second temperature for a first period of time. A second heat-treatment process is then performed including heating the substrate including the metal film from a third temperature to a fourth temperature at a second ramping rate and holding the substrate at the fourth temperature for a second period of time. The fourth temperature is different from the second temperature and the second period of time is different from the first period of time. The sequentially performed first and second heat-treatment processes convert the Ni metal layer on the source and drain regions into a NiSi layer on the source and drain regions and a NiSi2 layer between the NiSi layer and the source and drain regions.

A method of fabricating a metal silicide layer includes forming a metal layer on a substrate, and forming a pre-metal silicide layer by reacting the substrate with the metal layer by performing a first annealing process on the substrate. The method also includes implanting silicon into the substrate using a gas cluster ion beam (GCIB) process, and changing the pre-metal silicide layer into a metal silicide layer by performing a second annealing process on the substrate.

摘要:
In a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the semiconductor device, a plug and a channel structure are formed. The plug fills an opening and the channel structure extends upwardly from the plug. The channel structure has a substantially vertical sidewall. The opening is formed through an insulation structure located on a substrate. The plug and the channel structure comprise a material in a single crystalline state that is changed from an amorphous state by an irradiation of a laser beam. The channel structure is doped with impurities such as boron, phosphorus or arsenic.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming gate structures on PMOS and NMOS transistor regions of the semiconductor substrate, forming epitaxial blocking layers on source/drain regions of PMOS and NMOS transistor regions using a nitridation process, then selectively removing one of the epitaxial blocking layers, and using a SEG process to form an epitaxial layer on respective source/drain regions while shielding the other source/drain regions with a remaining epitaxial blocking layer.
