摘要:
There is provided a semiconductor device having a metal silicide layer which can suppress the malfunction and the increase in power consumption of the device. The semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate containing silicon and having a main surface, first and second impurity diffusion layers formed in the main surface of the semiconductor substrate, a metal silicide formed over the second impurity diffusion layer, and a silicon nitride film and a first interlayer insulation film sequentially stacked over the metal silicide. In the semiconductor device, a contact hole penetrating through the silicon nitride film and the first interlayer insulation film, and reaching the surface of the metal silicide is formed. The thickness of a portion of the metal silicide situated immediately under the contact hole is smaller than the thickness of a portion of the metal silicide situated around the contact hole.

An N-type source region and an N-type drain region of N-channel type MISFETs are implanted with ions (containing at least one of F, Si, C, Ge, Ne, Ar and Kr) with P-channel type MISFETs being covered by a mask layer. Then, each gate electrode, source region and drain region of the N- and P-channel type MISFETs are subjected to silicidation (containing at least one of Ni, Ti, Co, Pd, Pt and Er). This can suppress a drain-to-body off-leakage current (substrate leakage current) in the N-channel type MISFETs without degrading the drain-to-body off-leakage current in the P-channel type MISFETs.

Even if it is a case where the silicide region of nickel or a nickel alloy is formed in the source and drain of n channel MISFET, the semiconductor device in which OFF leakage current does not increase easily is realized.The channel length direction of n channel MISFET where the silicide region of nickel or a nickel alloy was formed on the source and the drain is arranged so that it may become parallel to the crystal orientation of a semiconductor substrate. Since it is hard to extend the silicide region of nickel or a nickel alloy in the direction of crystal orientation , even if it is a case where the silicide region of nickel or a nickel alloy is formed in the source and drain of n channel MISFET, the semiconductor device in which OFF leakage current does not increase easily is obtained.

摘要:
To improve the performance of semiconductor devices. Over an n+-type semiconductor region for source/drain of an n-channel type MISFET and a first gate electrode, and over a p+-type semiconductor region for source/drain of a p-channel type MISFET and a second gate electrode, which are formed over a semiconductor substrate, a metal silicide layer including nickel platinum silicide is formed by a salicide process. After that, a tensile stress film is formed over the whole face of the semiconductor substrate, and then the tensile stress film over the p-channel type MISFET is removed by dry-etching, and, after a compression stress film is formed over the whole face of the semiconductor substrate, the compression stress film over the n-channel type MISFET is removed by dry-etching. The Pt concentration in the metal silicide layer is highest at the surface, and becomes lower as the depth from the surface increases.
