Abstract:
A method of fabricating a metal oxide semiconductor transistor is described. A substrate having device isolation structures thereon is provided. A stack gate structure is formed over the substrate. An etching stop layer is formed over the substrate to cover the stack gate structure, the substrate and the device isolation structures. Thereafter, spacers are formed on the sidewalls of the stack gate structure. The spacers and the etching stop layer have different etching selectivity. A source region and a drain region are formed in the substrate beside the spacer on each side of the stack gate structure using the stack gate structure and the spacers as a mask. Then, the spacers are removed and a lightly doped region and a lightly doped drain region are formed in the substrate on each side of the stack gate structure using the stack gate structure as a mask.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a method that prevents by-productions from moving from a spacer. In particular by using an offset liner, a liner with a treated surface and a spacer that is formed by using the atomic layer deposition method or the rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition method. The present invention uses a liner, whose surface is treated, and a spacer, which is formed by using the atomic layer deposition method or the rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition method. This prevents by-product ions from moving from the spacer to other regions by using actions in diffusion and drift to affect the voltage stability of the semiconductor device after the current is connected. This defect will further affect qualities of the semiconductor device.
