    摘要: There is provided a semiconductor device fabrication method. In the method, a gate layer is formed on a semiconductor substrate and patterned to form a first resultant structure, a metal layer is formed on the first resultant structure, a capping layer is formed on the metal layer, a metal silicide is formed on the gate layer by heating the substrate at a first temperature, unreacted metal layer and first capping layer are removed to form a second resultant structure, a second capping layer is formed on the second resultant structure, and the substrate is heated at a second temperature higher than the first temperature. The second capping layer suppresses a silicidation rate in the secondary heat treatment, thereby allowing a silicide of a good morphology to be achieved.

    摘要: A method for fabricating a MOS transistor involves forming a buffering layer on an active region, performing an ion implantation to form a heavily doped region (source/drain region), and forming a self-aligned silicide region (salicide region) on exposed silicon and polysilicon gate. With this method, a salicide region free from voids can be formed because transition metal material (for example, cobalt) and silicon atoms at an interface portion between the transition metal layer and the substrate silicon are not locally accelerated or delayed during the formation of the salicide region.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device having a metal gate pattern is provided in which capping layers are used to control the relative oxidation rates of portions of the metal gate pattern during a oxidation process. The capping layer may be a multilayer structure and may be etched to form insulating spacers on the sidewalls of the metal gate pattern. The capping layer(s) allow the use of a selective oxidation process, which may be a wet oxidation process utilizing partial pressures of both H2O and H2 in an H2-rich atmosphere, to oxidize portions of the substrate and metal gate pattern while suppressing the oxidation of metal layers that may be included in the metal gate pattern. This allows etch damage to the silicon substrate and edges of the metal gate pattern to be reduced while substantially maintaining the original thickness of the gate insulating layer and the conductivity of the metal layer(s).

    摘要: Methods of forming integrated circuit devices include patterning an electrically insulating layer to support dual-damascene interconnect structures therein. The steps of patterning the electrically insulating layer include using multiple planarization layers having different porosity characteristics. Forming an interconnect structure within an integrated circuit device may include forming an electrically insulating layer on a substrate and forming at least one via hole extending at least partially through the electrically insulating layer. The at least one via hole is filled with a first electrically insulating material having a first porosity. The filled at least one via hole is then covered with a second electrically insulating material layer having a second porosity lower than the first porosity. The second electrically insulating material layer is selectively etched back to expose a first portion of the first electrically insulating material in the at least one via hole. The electrically insulating layer is selectively etched to define a trench therein that exposes a second portion of the first electrically insulating material in the at least one via hole. The first electrically insulating material, which has a relatively high degree of porosity, is then removed from the at least one via hole. This removal step may be performed using a relatively mild ashing process because of the high porosity of the first electrically insulating material.
