20 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Major Fabrication Steps for a DSM CMOS Process 1)p 1.) p and n wells 2.) Shallow trench isolation 3.) Threshold shift 4.) Thin oxide and gate polysilicon 5.) Lightly doped drains and sources 6.) Sidewall spacer 7.) Heavily doped drains and sources 8.) Siliciding (Salicide and Polycide) 9.) Bottom metal, tungsten plugs, and oxide 10.) Higher level metals, tungsten plugs/vias, and oxide 11.) Top level metal, vias and protective oxide Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

21 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 1 Starting Material The substrate should be highly doped to act like a good conductor Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

22 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 2 - n and p wells These are the areas where the transistors will be fabricated - NMOS in the p-well and PMOS in the n-well. Done by implantation followed by a deep diffusion. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

23 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 3 Shallow Trench Isolation The shallow trench isolation (STI) electrically isolates one region/transistor from another. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

24 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 4 Threshold Shift and Anti-Punch Through Implants - The natural thresholds of the NMOS is about 0V and of the PMOS is about 1.2V. An p-implant p is used to make the NMOS harder to invert and the PMOS easier resulting in threshold voltages balanced around zero volts. - Also an implant can be applied to create a higher-doped region beneath the channels to prevent punch-through from the drain depletion region extending to source depletion region. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

25 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 5 Thin Oxide and Polysilicon Gates A thin oxide is deposited followed by polysilicon. These layers are removed where they are not wanted. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

26 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 6 Lightly Doped Drains and Sources A lightly-doped implant is used to create a lightly-doped source and drain next to the channel of the MOSFETs. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

27 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 7 Sidewall Spacers A layer of dielectric is deposited on the surface and removed in such a way as to leave sidewall spacers next to the thin-oxidepolysilicon-polycide sandwich. These sidewall spacers will prevent the part of the source and drain next to the channel from becoming heavily doped. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

28 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 8 Implantation of the Heavily Doped Sources and Drains Note that not only does this step provide the completed sources and drains but allows for ohmic contact into the wells and substrate. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

29 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 9 Siliciding Siliciding and polyciding is used to reduce interconnect resistivity by placing a lowresistance silicide such as TiSi2, WSi2, TaSi2, etc. on top of the diffusions. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

30 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 10 Intermediate Oxide Layer An oxide layer is used to cover the transistors and to planarize (or polish->cmp) the surface. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

31 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 11- First-Level Metal Tungsten plugs are built through the lower intermediate oxide layer to provide contact between the devices, wells and substrate to the first-level metal. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

32 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Step 12 Second-Level Metal The previous step is repeated to from the second-level metal. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

33 3. TYPICAL DEEP SUBMICRON (DSM) CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS Completed Fabrication After multiple levels of metal are applied, the fabrication is completed with a thicker toplevel metal and a protective layer to hermetically seal the circuit from the environment. Note that metal is used for the upper level metal vias. The chip is electrically connected by removing the protective layer over large bonding pads. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

45 5. PN JUNCTIONS in CMOS How are PN Junctions used in CMOS? PN junctions are used to electrically isolate one semiconductor region from another PN diodes Creation of the thermal voltage for bandgap purposes Depletion capacitors voltage variable capacitors (varactors) Components of a PN junction: 1.) p-doped semiconductor a semiconductor having atoms containing a lack of electrons (acceptors). The concentration of acceptors is NA in atoms per cubic centimeter. 2.) n-doped semiconductor a semiconductor having atoms containing an excess of electrons (donors). The concentration of these atoms is ND in atoms per cubic centimeter. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

46 6. MOS TRANSISTOR PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF MOS TRANSISTORS Physical Structure of MOS Transistors in an n-well Technology Width (W) of the MOSFET = Width of the source/drain diffusion Length (L) of the MOSFET = Width of the polysilicon gate between the S/D diffusions Note: the MOSFET is isolated from the well/substrate by reverse biasing the resulting PN junction Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

47 6. MOS TRANSISTOR PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF MOS TRANSISTORS Enhancement MOSFETs The channel between the source and drain of an enhancement MOSFET is formed when the proper potential is applied to the gate of the MOSFET. This potential inverts the material immediately below the gate to the same type of impurity it as the source and drain forming the channel. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

48 6. MOS TRANSISTOR PHYSICAL ASPECTS OF MOS TRANSISTORS Depletion Mode MOSFET The channel is diffused into the substrate so that a channel exists between the source and drain with no external gate potential. The threshold voltage for a depletion mode NMOS transistor will be negative (a negative gate potential is necessary to attract enough holes underneath the gate to cause this region to invert to p-type material). Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

Minimize the area of the source and drain to reduce bulk-source/drain capacitance. Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

51 6. MOS TRANSISTOR LAYOUT OF MOS TRANSISTORS Geometric Effects Orientation: Devices oriented in the same direction match more precisely than those oriented in other directions Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

52 6. MOS TRANSISTOR LAYOUT OF MOS TRANSISTORS Diffusion and Etch Effects Poly etch rate variation use dummy elements to prevent etch rate differences. Do not put contacts on top of the gate for matched transistors. Be careful of diffusion interactions for diffusions near the channel of the MOSFET Hoàng Trang-bộ môn Kỹ Thuật Điện Tử, 12/

53 6.

54 6. MOS TRANSISTOR LAYOUT OF MOS TRANSISTORS MOS Transistor Layout Photolithographic invariance (PLI) are transistors that exhibit identical orientation.
