    摘要: Methods of fabricating a semiconductor device using a selective epitaxial growth technique include forming a recess in a semiconductor substrate. The substrate having the recess is loaded into a reaction chamber. A semiconductor source gas and a main etching gas are injected into the reaction chamber to selectively grow an epitaxial semiconductor layer on a sidewall and on a bottom surface of the recess. A selective etching gas is injected into the reaction chamber to selectively etch a fence of the epitaxial semiconductor layer which is adjacent to the sidewall of the recess and grown to a level that is higher than an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate.

    摘要: Methods of fabricating a MOS transistor having a fully silicided metal gate electrode are provided. The method includes forming an isolation layer in a predetermined region of a semiconductor substrate to define an active region. An insulated gate pattern which crosses over the active region is formed. A spacer is formed on sidewalls of the gate pattern. A selective epitaxial growth process is applied to form semiconductor layers on the gate pattern and on the active region at both sides of the gate pattern. In this case, a poly-crystalline semiconductor layer is formed on the gate pattern while single-crystalline semiconductor layers are concurrently formed on the active region at both sides of the gate pattern. The semiconductor layers are selectively etched to form a gate-reduced pattern and elevated source and drain regions. Respective desired thicknesses of the gate-reduced pattern and the elevated source and drain regions may be obtained using an etch selectivity between the poly-crystalline semiconductor layer and the single-crystalline semiconductor layer. A silicidation process is applied to the semiconductor substrate where the gate-reduced pattern is formed to simultaneously form a fully silicided metal gate electrode and elevated source and drain silicide layers.

    摘要: Provided is an in-situ precleaning method for use in conjunction with epitaxial processes that utilizes temperatures at or below those typically utilized during the subsequent epitaxial deposition under pressure and ambient conditions suitable for inducing decomposition of semiconductor oxides, such as native oxides, from exposed semiconductor surfaces. The reduced temperature and the resulting quality of the cleaned semiconductor surfaces will tend to reduce the likelihood of temperature related issues such as unwanted diffusion, autodoping, slip, and other crystalline stress problems while simultaneously reducing the overall process time. The combination of pressure, ambient gas composition and temperature maintained within the reaction chamber are sufficient to decompose semiconductor oxides present on the substrate surface. For example, the reaction chamber may be operated so that the concentration of evolved oxygen within the reaction chamber is less than about 50%, or even less than 10%, of the equilibrium vapor pressure under the cleaning conditions.

    摘要: A semiconductor device includes a channel layer, a gate electrode formed on the channel layer, a p-type source region formed on a first side of the channel layer, and a p-type drain region formed on a second side of the channel layer. A heavy-hole band and a light-hole band are separated by compressive strain applied isotropically in an in-plane direction in the channel layer. A channel direction connecting the p-type source and drain regions is set substantially to a direction to maximize hole mobility in the channel layer.
