A semiconductor device in which selectivity in epitaxial growth is improved. There is provided a semiconductor device comprising a gate electrode formed over an Si substrate, which is a semiconductor substrate, with a gate insulating film therebetween and an insulating layer formed over sides of the gate electrode and containing a halogen element. With this semiconductor device, a silicon nitride film which contains the halogen element is formed over the sides of the gate electrode when an SiGe layer is formed over the Si substrate. Therefore, the SiGe layer epitaxial-grows over the Si substrate with high selectivity. As a result, an OFF-state leakage current which flows between, for example, the gate electrode and source/drain regions is suppressed and a manufacturing process suitable for actual mass production is established.

The semiconductor device fabrication method comprising the step of forming a gate electrode 54p on a semiconductor substrate 34; the step of forming a source/drain diffused layer 64p in the semiconductor substrate 34 on both sides of the gate electrode 54p; the step of burying a silicon germanium layer 100b in the source/drain diffused layer 64p; the step of forming an amorphous layer at an upper part of the silicon germanium layer 101; the step of forming a nickel film 66 on the amorphous layer 101; and the step of making thermal processing to react the nickel film 66 and the amorphous layer 101 with each other to form a silicide film 102b on the silicon germanium layer 100b. Because of no crystal boundaries in the amorphous layer 101 to react with the nickel film 66, the silicidation homogeneously goes on. Because of no crystal faces in the amorphous layer 101, the Ni(Si1-xGex)2 crystals are prevented from being formed in spikes. Thus, even when the silicon germanium layer 100b is silicided by using a thin nickel film 66, the sheet resistance can be low, and the junction leak current can be suppressed.

摘要:
A high-speed, low-power-consumption semiconductor device has a thin-film Si layer with a source/drain formed therein. The thin-film Si layer is curved from a region directly below a gate electrode toward a region near the source/drain. The curved thin-film Si layer develops strains in a channel region disposed directly below the gate electrode sandwiched by the source/drain in the thin-film Si layer, for thereby increasing a carrier mobility. A cavity is defined below the curved thin-film Si layer for reducing a parasitic capacitance due to a pn junction.
