Description

半导体器件及其制备方法Semiconductor device and method for manufacturing the same

技术领域Technical Field

本发明涉及半导体技术领域,尤其涉及一种半导体器件及其制备方法。The present invention relates to the field of semiconductor technology, and in particular to a semiconductor device and a method for preparing the same.

背景技术Background technique

半导体器件在现代电子技术中有着重要的应用,相应的对半导体器件的性能要求也越来越高。Semiconductor devices have important applications in modern electronic technology, and the corresponding performance requirements for semiconductor devices are becoming increasingly higher.

然而,现有的半导体器件在制作电极(例如栅电极)时,由于开口尺寸受光刻机制程极限的制约,无法进一步缩小,也就使得栅电极的尺寸较大。栅电极尺寸较大进而导致栅极电容较大,影响半导体器件的开关速度,也就限制了半导体器件在高频领域的应用。However, when manufacturing electrodes (such as gate electrodes) of existing semiconductor devices, the opening size is restricted by the process limit of the photolithography machine and cannot be further reduced, which makes the size of the gate electrode larger. The larger gate electrode size leads to a larger gate capacitance, which affects the switching speed of the semiconductor device and limits the application of the semiconductor device in the high-frequency field.

Because the side wall structure is formed at the opening of the etch barrier layer before etching the first epitaxial structure, the size of the opening is further reduced, and the size of the opening subsequently formed on the first epitaxial structure is smaller, and the electrode structure formed is also smaller, which can further reduce the parasitic capacitance of the semiconductor device and improve the switching speed of the semiconductor device.

图1为本发明实施例提供的一种半导体器件的制备方法的流程图,参考图1,半导体器件的制备方法包括:FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for preparing a semiconductor device provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1 , the method for preparing a semiconductor device includes:

步骤S110,于衬底上形成第一外延结构,第一外延结构包括开口区;Step S110, forming a first epitaxial structure on a substrate, wherein the first epitaxial structure includes an opening region;

具体地,图2为本发明实施例提供的一种半导体器件的制备方法的主要步骤对应的产品结构示意图,结合图1和图2。本实施例的半导体器件可以是由异质结构成的高电子迁移率晶体管(high electron mobility transistor,HEMT)半导体器件、异质结双极晶体管(heterojunction bipolar transistors,HBT)、异质结场效应晶体管(heterojunctionfield effect transistor,HFET)或者调制掺杂FETs(modulation-doped FETs,MODFET)等。第一外延结构12可以是通过外延工艺制成,第一外延结构12的开口区HO为需要形成开口的区域,该开口后续用于形成半导体器件的电极。优选地,半导体器件中栅极寄生电容对半导体器件的开关性能影响较大,而栅极寄生电容的大小与栅电极的尺寸相关。因此,本实施例所述的开口区可以是对应需要形成栅电极的区域。Specifically, FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a product structure corresponding to the main steps of a method for preparing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, in combination with FIG. 1 and FIG. 2. The semiconductor device of this embodiment may be a high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) semiconductor device, a heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), a heterojunction field effect transistor (HFET), or a modulation-doped FET (MODFET), etc., which is formed by a heterojunction. The first epitaxial structure 12 may be made by an epitaxial process, and the opening area HO of the first epitaxial structure 12 is an area where an opening needs to be formed, and the opening is subsequently used to form an electrode of the semiconductor device. Preferably, the gate parasitic capacitance in the semiconductor device has a greater influence on the switching performance of the semiconductor device, and the size of the gate parasitic capacitance is related to the size of the gate electrode. Therefore, the opening area described in this embodiment may be a corresponding area where a gate electrode needs to be formed.

示例性地,衬底11例如是硅、碳化硅(SiC)、砷化镓(GaAs)、硅锗(SiGe)、p掺杂硅、n掺杂硅、蓝宝石、绝缘体上硅或者其它半导体材料等。另外,衬底11也可包括例如第III族元素、第IV族元素、第V族元素或其组合(例如,III-V族化合物)等。第一外延结构12可以形成异质结,示例性的可包括沟道层以及势垒层等。By way of example, the substrate 11 is, for example, silicon, silicon carbide (SiC), gallium arsenide (GaAs), silicon germanium (SiGe), p-doped silicon, n-doped silicon, sapphire, silicon on insulator, or other semiconductor materials. In addition, the substrate 11 may also include, for example, group III elements, group IV elements, group V elements, or a combination thereof (e.g., group III-V compounds), etc. The first epitaxial structure 12 may form a heterojunction, and may exemplarily include a channel layer and a barrier layer, etc.

步骤S120,于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;Step S120, forming an etching stop layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate;

具体地,刻蚀阻挡层13用于阻挡被其覆盖的第一外延结构12被腐蚀。刻蚀阻挡层13可通过外延或沉积等工艺形成,沉积工艺例如是原子层沉积(atomic layerdeposition,ALD)、物理气相沉积(physical vapor deposition,PVD)、化学气相沉积(chemical vapor deposition,CVD)、金属有机CVD(metal organic CVD,MOCVD)、等离子体CVD(plasma enhanced CVD,PECVD)、低压CVD(low-power CVD,LPCVD)或者等离子体辅助气相沉积(plasma-assisted vapor deposition)等。Specifically, the etch stop layer 13 is used to prevent the first epitaxial structure 12 covered by the etch stop layer 13 from being corroded. The etch stop layer 13 can be formed by epitaxy or deposition processes, and the deposition process is, for example, atomic layer deposition (ALD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), metal organic CVD (MOCVD), plasma enhanced CVD (PECVD), low-power CVD (LPCVD) or plasma-assisted vapor deposition.

步骤S130,去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;Step S130, removing the portion of the etching stop layer located in the opening area;

具体地,可通过光刻工艺图案化刻蚀阻挡层13,使得刻蚀阻挡层13位于开口区HO的部分被去除,其余部分被保留。如图2所示,可首先在刻蚀阻挡层13上形成一层光刻胶20,随后利用掩膜版对光刻胶20进行曝光显影,使得光刻胶20对应开口区HO的部分被去除,接着以光刻胶20为掩膜,刻蚀掉刻蚀阻挡层13位于开口区HO的部分。刻蚀工艺可以是干法刻蚀或者湿法刻蚀等。Specifically, the etching stop layer 13 can be patterned by a photolithography process, so that the portion of the etching stop layer 13 located in the opening area HO is removed, and the remaining portion is retained. As shown in FIG. 2 , a layer of photoresist 20 can be first formed on the etching stop layer 13, and then the photoresist 20 is exposed and developed using a mask, so that the portion of the photoresist 20 corresponding to the opening area HO is removed, and then the photoresist 20 is used as a mask to etch away the portion of the etching stop layer 13 located in the opening area HO. The etching process can be dry etching or wet etching, etc.

步骤S140,于开口区对应刻蚀阻挡层的侧边形成侧墙;Step S140, forming a sidewall at the side of the opening area corresponding to the etching stop layer;

具体地,如图2所示,刻蚀阻挡层13对应开口区HO的部分被去除后,后续需要继续以刻蚀阻挡层13为掩膜,刻蚀第一外延结构12。受限于光刻机的精度,光刻胶20能被刻蚀的最小尺寸也较大,也就使得开口区HO最小尺寸也较大。换句话说,刻蚀阻挡层13被刻蚀掉的部分受限于光刻机的精度问题无法进一步减小,刻蚀阻挡层13暴露出的第一外延结构12的面积较大,后续在第一外延结构12上形成的开口也就较大,使得后续形成的栅电极较大,进而导致半导体器件具有较大的栅极寄生电容。本实施例中,可在刻蚀阻挡层13的侧边形成侧墙141,由于侧墙141具有一定的横向(图2中刻蚀阻挡层13与侧墙141排列方向)尺寸,那么由刻蚀阻挡层13和侧墙141组成的整体结构,所暴露出的第一外延结构12的面积较小。Specifically, as shown in FIG2 , after the portion of the etch stop layer 13 corresponding to the opening area HO is removed, the first epitaxial structure 12 needs to be etched using the etch stop layer 13 as a mask. Limited by the accuracy of the photolithography machine, the minimum size of the photoresist 20 that can be etched is also large, which also makes the minimum size of the opening area HO larger. In other words, the portion of the etched etch stop layer 13 cannot be further reduced due to the accuracy of the photolithography machine. The area of the first epitaxial structure 12 exposed by the etch stop layer 13 is large, and the opening formed on the first epitaxial structure 12 is also large, so that the gate electrode formed later is larger, which leads to a larger gate parasitic capacitance of the semiconductor device. In this embodiment, a sidewall 141 can be formed on the side of the etch stop layer 13. Since the sidewall 141 has a certain lateral (the arrangement direction of the etch stop layer 13 and the sidewall 141 in FIG2 ) dimension, the overall structure composed of the etch stop layer 13 and the sidewall 141 has a smaller area of the first epitaxial structure 12 exposed.

步骤S150,以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;Step S150, etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching stop layer and the sidewall spacer as a mask to form an opening;

具体地,第一外延结构12的刻蚀方法为本领域技术人员所熟知,例如是干法刻蚀或者湿法刻蚀等。本实施例中,由于形成了侧墙141,第一外延结构12被暴露的部分面积较小,使得第一外延结构12被刻蚀形成的开口HO1也就较小。由上述分析可知,本实施例通过在开口区对应刻蚀阻挡层的位置形成侧墙141,可以进一步减小开口的尺寸。能够在光刻机极限尺寸的情况下进一步减小开口的尺寸。Specifically, the etching method of the first epitaxial structure 12 is well known to those skilled in the art, such as dry etching or wet etching. In this embodiment, due to the formation of the sidewall 141, the exposed area of the first epitaxial structure 12 is small, so that the opening HO1 formed by etching the first epitaxial structure 12 is also small. From the above analysis, it can be seen that in this embodiment, by forming the sidewall 141 at the position of the etching stop layer in the opening area, the size of the opening can be further reduced. The size of the opening can be further reduced under the condition of the maximum size of the lithography machine.

步骤S160,于开口内形成电极结构。Step S160: forming an electrode structure in the opening.

具体地,电极结构可以是包括第二外延结构15,第二外延结构15例如是p型栅等,也即p型半导体材料。通过第二外延结构15可以使得半导体器件构成增强型器件。当然,电极结构也可以是其它的结构等。第二外延结构15可通过外延等方式形成。由于开口HO1的尺寸较小,位于开口HO1内的第二外延结构15也较少,使得电极结构的整体尺寸能够做到更小,从而能够进一步降低半导体器件的栅极寄生电容。Specifically, the electrode structure may include a second epitaxial structure 15, and the second epitaxial structure 15 is, for example, a p-type gate, that is, a p-type semiconductor material. The second epitaxial structure 15 can make the semiconductor device constitute an enhanced device. Of course, the electrode structure can also be other structures. The second epitaxial structure 15 can be formed by epitaxy or the like. Since the size of the opening HO1 is small, the second epitaxial structure 15 located in the opening HO1 is also small, so that the overall size of the electrode structure can be made smaller, thereby further reducing the gate parasitic capacitance of the semiconductor device.

本实施例的技术方案,采用的半导体器件的制备方法包括于衬底上形成第一外延结构,第一外延结构包括开口区;于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;于开口区对应刻蚀阻挡层的侧边形成侧墙;以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;于开口内形成电极结构。由于在对第一外延结构刻蚀前,在刻蚀阻挡层的开口处制作侧墙结构,使得开口尺寸进一步减小,后续在第一外延结构上形成的开口尺寸较小,形成的电极结构也就较小,进而可以进一步降低半导体器件的寄生电容,提高半导体器件的开关速度。The technical solution of this embodiment adopts a method for preparing a semiconductor device, which includes forming a first epitaxial structure on a substrate, the first epitaxial structure including an opening area; forming an etching barrier layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate; removing the portion of the etching barrier layer located in the opening area; forming a side wall on the side of the opening area corresponding to the etching barrier layer; etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching barrier layer and the side wall as a mask to form an opening; and forming an electrode structure in the opening. Since the side wall structure is formed at the opening of the etching barrier layer before etching the first epitaxial structure, the size of the opening is further reduced, and the size of the opening subsequently formed on the first epitaxial structure is smaller, and the electrode structure formed is also smaller, which can further reduce the parasitic capacitance of the semiconductor device and improve the switching speed of the semiconductor device.

步骤S120,于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;Step S120, forming an etching stop layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate;

步骤S130,去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;Step S130, removing the portion of the etching stop layer located in the opening area;

其中,上述实施例中步骤S140具体包括:In the above embodiment, step S140 specifically includes:

步骤S141,整面形成侧墙材料层,侧墙材料层覆盖刻蚀阻挡层及开口区去除刻蚀阻挡层而暴露的第一外延结构;Step S141, forming a spacer material layer on the entire surface, the spacer material layer covering the etch stop layer and the first epitaxial structure exposed by removing the etch stop layer from the opening area;

具体地,如图2所示,侧墙材料层14例如是通过沉积等工艺形成。通过沉积工艺,可以整面形成一层侧墙材料层14,侧墙材料层14的材料可以是介质材料或者外延材料等。2 , the spacer material layer 14 is formed by, for example, deposition or the like. Through the deposition process, a layer of spacer material layer 14 can be formed on the entire surface, and the material of the spacer material layer 14 can be a dielectric material or an epitaxial material.

步骤S142,通过侧墙刻蚀侧墙材料层以形成侧墙。Step S142, forming a sidewall by etching the sidewall material layer.

具体地,侧墙刻蚀例如是干法刻蚀,干法刻蚀具有各向异性的特征,当侧墙材料层14被刻蚀暴露出相应的刻蚀阻挡层以及第一外延结构后,刻蚀停止。由于侧墙对应位置的侧墙材料层厚度较厚,当刻蚀停止后,该部分的侧墙材料层并不会被完全刻蚀,而是保留下侧墙141。Specifically, the sidewall etching is, for example, dry etching, which has anisotropic characteristics. When the sidewall material layer 14 is etched to expose the corresponding etching barrier layer and the first epitaxial structure, the etching stops. Since the sidewall material layer at the corresponding position of the sidewall is thicker, when the etching stops, the sidewall material layer of this part will not be completely etched, but the lower sidewall 141 will be retained.

步骤S150,以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;Step S150, etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching stop layer and the sidewall spacer as a mask to form an opening;

步骤S160,于开口内形成电极结构。Step S160: forming an electrode structure in the opening.

可选地,在上述实施方式的基础上,整面形成侧墙材料层时包括:根据第一外延结构对应的开口尺寸及半导体器件的最终尺寸确定侧墙材料层的厚度。Optionally, based on the above implementation, when the spacer material layer is formed on the entire surface, the step includes: determining the thickness of the spacer material layer according to the opening size corresponding to the first epitaxial structure and the final size of the semiconductor device.

具体地,本实施例所述第一外延结构对应的开口尺寸为预期的尺寸,当预期尺寸较大时,相应的设置侧墙材料层的厚度也较大;当预期尺寸较小时,相应的设置侧墙材料层的厚度也较小。侧墙材料层的厚度与侧墙的横向尺寸相关,当侧墙材料层的厚度较大时,后续形成的侧墙的横向尺寸也较大,从而也就可以在第一外延结构上制作出更小尺寸的开口。当侧墙材料层的厚度较小时,后续形成的侧墙的横向尺寸较小,从而可以在第一外延结构上制作出相对较大尺寸的开口。另外,侧墙材料层的厚度也需要考虑半导体器件的整体尺寸,若半导体器件的最终尺寸较大,相应的侧墙材料层的厚度可以设置的较大;而若半导体器件的最终尺寸较小,相应的侧墙材料层的厚度需要设置的较小,避免影响半导体器件的性能。Specifically, the opening size corresponding to the first epitaxial structure of this embodiment is an expected size. When the expected size is larger, the thickness of the corresponding sidewall material layer is also larger; when the expected size is smaller, the thickness of the corresponding sidewall material layer is also smaller. The thickness of the sidewall material layer is related to the lateral size of the sidewall. When the thickness of the sidewall material layer is larger, the lateral size of the sidewall formed subsequently is also larger, so that a smaller opening can be made on the first epitaxial structure. When the thickness of the sidewall material layer is smaller, the lateral size of the sidewall formed subsequently is smaller, so that a relatively larger opening can be made on the first epitaxial structure. In addition, the thickness of the sidewall material layer also needs to consider the overall size of the semiconductor device. If the final size of the semiconductor device is larger, the thickness of the corresponding sidewall material layer can be set larger; and if the final size of the semiconductor device is smaller, the thickness of the corresponding sidewall material layer needs to be set smaller to avoid affecting the performance of the semiconductor device.

可选地,图4为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的流程图,结合图2和图4。本实施例中半导体器件的制备方法包括:Optionally, FIG4 is a flow chart of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, in combination with FIG2 and FIG4. The method for preparing a semiconductor device in this embodiment includes:

步骤S110,于衬底上形成第一外延结构,第一外延结构包括开口区;Step S110, forming a first epitaxial structure on a substrate, wherein the first epitaxial structure includes an opening region;

步骤S120,于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;Step S120, forming an etching stop layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate;

具体地,在本实施例中,刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为介质材料。介质材料可以是氧化硅或者氮化硅等。Specifically, in this embodiment, the material of the etching stop layer 13 is a dielectric material, which may be silicon oxide or silicon nitride.

步骤S130,去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;Step S130, removing the portion of the etching stop layer located in the opening area;

步骤S140,于开口区对应刻蚀阻挡层的侧边形成侧墙;Step S140, forming a sidewall at the side of the opening area corresponding to the etching stop layer;

具体地,侧墙的材料与刻蚀阻挡层的材料不同,避免在刻蚀侧墙材料层形成侧墙时将刻蚀阻挡层刻蚀掉。示例性地,当刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为氧化硅时,侧墙141的材料可以为氮化硅。当刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为氮化硅时,侧墙141的材料可以为氧化硅。Specifically, the material of the sidewall is different from the material of the etch stop layer, so as to avoid etching away the etch stop layer when the sidewall material layer is etched to form the sidewall. Exemplarily, when the material of the etch stop layer 13 is silicon oxide, the material of the sidewall 141 may be silicon nitride. When the material of the etch stop layer 13 is silicon nitride, the material of the sidewall 141 may be silicon oxide.

步骤S150,以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;Step S150, etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching stop layer and the sidewall spacer as a mask to form an opening;

步骤S200,去除介质材料层及侧墙;Step S200, removing the dielectric material layer and the sidewalls;

具体地,如图2所示,本实施例中,介质材料层后续不利于继续外延生长第二外延结构,因此在形成电极结构之前可先去除介质材料层。去除方式例如是湿法刻蚀等。介质材料层以及侧墙被刻蚀后,暴露出第一外延结构12,以利于后续继续生长电极结构(如电极结构中的第二外延结构)。Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2 , in this embodiment, the dielectric material layer is not conducive to the subsequent epitaxial growth of the second epitaxial structure, so the dielectric material layer can be removed before forming the electrode structure. The removal method is, for example, wet etching. After the dielectric material layer and the sidewalls are etched, the first epitaxial structure 12 is exposed, which is conducive to the subsequent growth of the electrode structure (such as the second epitaxial structure in the electrode structure).

步骤S160,于开口内形成电极结构。Step S160: forming an electrode structure in the opening.

本实施例中,选用介质材料作为刻蚀阻挡层,后续再去除介质材料以及侧墙。介质材料的材料选择较为多样,有利于降低半导体器件的制备成本。In this embodiment, a dielectric material is selected as an etching stop layer, and the dielectric material and the sidewalls are subsequently removed. The material selection of the dielectric material is relatively diverse, which is conducive to reducing the preparation cost of semiconductor devices.

可选地,图5为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的流程图,图6为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的主要步骤对应的产品结构示意图,参考图5和图6。半导体器件的制备方法包括:Optionally, FIG5 is a flow chart of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG6 is a schematic diagram of a product structure corresponding to the main steps of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided by an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to FIG5 and FIG6. The method for preparing a semiconductor device includes:

步骤S110,于衬底上形成第一外延结构,第一外延结构包括开口区;Step S110, forming a first epitaxial structure on a substrate, wherein the first epitaxial structure includes an opening region;

步骤S120,于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;Step S120, forming an etching stop layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate;

具体地,在本实施例中,刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为外延材料层。外延材料层的材料例如是氮化铝等。本实施例的刻蚀阻挡层,不仅可以作为刻蚀第一外延结构的掩膜,还可以继续外延形成电极结构中的第二外延结构。Specifically, in this embodiment, the material of the etch stop layer 13 is an epitaxial material layer. The material of the epitaxial material layer is, for example, aluminum nitride. The etch stop layer of this embodiment can not only be used as a mask for etching the first epitaxial structure, but also can continue to epitaxially form the second epitaxial structure in the electrode structure.

步骤S130,去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;Step S130, removing the portion of the etching stop layer located in the opening area;

步骤S140,于开口区对应刻蚀阻挡层的侧边形成侧墙;Step S140, forming a sidewall at the side of the opening area corresponding to the etching stop layer;

具体地,侧墙的材料与刻蚀阻挡层的材料不同,避免在刻蚀侧墙材料层形成侧墙时将刻蚀阻挡层刻蚀掉。示例性地,本实施例中侧墙141的材料可以是氧化硅或者氮化硅等。Specifically, the material of the sidewalls is different from the material of the etching barrier layer, so as to avoid etching away the etching barrier layer when etching the sidewall material layer to form the sidewalls. For example, the material of the sidewalls 141 in this embodiment can be silicon oxide or silicon nitride.

步骤S150,以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;Step S150, etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching stop layer and the sidewall spacer as a mask to form an opening;

本实施例中于开口内形成电极结构包括:In this embodiment, forming an electrode structure in the opening includes:

步骤S161,形成填充开口以及至少部分覆盖外延材料层的电极结构;Step S161, forming an electrode structure that fills the opening and at least partially covers the epitaxial material layer;

具体地,本实施例中的电极结构包括第二外延结构15,因刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为外延材料,可以在刻蚀阻挡层13上直接外延生长第二外延结构15,而无需图2对应的实施例中将刻蚀阻挡层13去除的步骤,从而可以节省工艺步骤,提高半导体器件的生成效率。Specifically, the electrode structure in this embodiment includes a second epitaxial structure 15. Since the material of the etch stop layer 13 is an epitaxial material, the second epitaxial structure 15 can be directly epitaxially grown on the etch stop layer 13 without the step of removing the etch stop layer 13 in the embodiment corresponding to Figure 2, thereby saving process steps and improving the production efficiency of semiconductor devices.

可选地,在上述实施方式中,第一外延结构与外延材料层的刻蚀选择比大于或等于5。Optionally, in the above embodiment, an etching selectivity ratio of the first epitaxial structure to the epitaxial material layer is greater than or equal to 5.

具体地,由于第一外延结构和外延材料层均为外延材料,若第一外延结构与外延材料层的刻蚀选择比较小,在刻蚀第一外延结构时,外延材料层也会被刻蚀的较多,从而可能无法起到刻蚀阻挡的作用。本实施例中,通过选择第一外延结构与外延材料层的刻蚀选择比大于或等于5,保证外延材料层具有较高的刻蚀阻挡作用。Specifically, since both the first epitaxial structure and the epitaxial material layer are epitaxial materials, if the etching selectivity of the first epitaxial structure and the epitaxial material layer is relatively small, when etching the first epitaxial structure, the epitaxial material layer will also be etched more, and thus may not be able to play the role of etching barrier. In this embodiment, by selecting the etching selectivity ratio of the first epitaxial structure and the epitaxial material layer to be greater than or equal to 5, it is ensured that the epitaxial material layer has a higher etching barrier effect.

需要说明的是,外延材料层的具体材料可根据第一外延结构的材料进行选择,可以是如上所述的氮化铝,当然也可以是可行的其它材料。It should be noted that the specific material of the epitaxial material layer can be selected according to the material of the first epitaxial structure, and can be aluminum nitride as described above, or other feasible materials.

可选地,图7为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的流程图,图8为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的主要步骤对应形成的产品结构示意图,图9为本发明实施例提供的又一种半导体器件的制备方法的主要步骤对应形成的产品结构示意图,参考图7至图9。半导体器件的制备方法包括:Optionally, FIG. 7 is a flow chart of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of a product structure formed by the main steps of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of a product structure formed by the main steps of another method for preparing a semiconductor device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to FIG. 7 to FIG. 9. The method for preparing a semiconductor device includes:

步骤S110,于衬底上形成第一外延结构,第一外延结构包括开口区;Step S110, forming a first epitaxial structure on a substrate, wherein the first epitaxial structure includes an opening region;

步骤S120,于第一外延结构远离衬底的一侧形成刻蚀阻挡层;Step S120, forming an etching stop layer on a side of the first epitaxial structure away from the substrate;

具体地,在图8所对应的实施例中,刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为介质材料,后续需要去除后才可以继续制作第二外延结构。而在图9对应的实施例中,刻蚀阻挡层13的材料为外延材料层,后续不需要去除刻蚀阻挡层,可以直接在刻蚀阻挡层13上外延生成第二外延结构。Specifically, in the embodiment corresponding to FIG8 , the material of the etch stop layer 13 is a dielectric material, which needs to be removed later before the second epitaxial structure can be fabricated. In the embodiment corresponding to FIG9 , the material of the etch stop layer 13 is an epitaxial material layer, which does not need to be removed later, and the second epitaxial structure can be directly generated by epitaxy on the etch stop layer 13 .

步骤S130,去除刻蚀阻挡层位于开口区的部分;Step S130, removing the portion of the etching stop layer located in the opening area;

步骤S210,刻蚀第一外延结构位于开口区的部分以形成子开口;其中,子开口具有预设深度,预设深度小于第一外延结构对应的开口的深度;Step S210, etching the portion of the first epitaxial structure located in the opening area to form a sub-opening; wherein the sub-opening has a preset depth, and the preset depth is smaller than the depth of the opening corresponding to the first epitaxial structure;

具体地,本实施例中,图案化刻蚀阻挡层之后,可继续对第一外延结构进行半刻,从而形成一个子开口HO2。需要说明的是,当第一外延结构包括多层膜层时,子开口HO2可以仅贯穿其中的部分膜层,或者贯穿最上层(即与刻蚀阻挡层接触的膜层)的一部分。Specifically, in this embodiment, after the patterned etching stop layer, the first epitaxial structure may be further half-etched to form a sub-opening HO2. It should be noted that when the first epitaxial structure includes multiple film layers, the sub-opening HO2 may only penetrate part of the film layers, or penetrate a part of the uppermost layer (i.e., the film layer in contact with the etching stop layer).

步骤S143,形成位于子开口的侧边的侧墙;Step S143, forming a side wall located at the side of the sub-opening;

具体地,本实施例中,侧墙141不仅对应形成在刻蚀阻挡层所在的膜层,还对应形成在第一外延结构对应的膜层。由于湿法刻蚀的各向同性,刻蚀第一外延结构12时不仅会形成开口,还会沿开口的侧壁横向刻蚀掉部分的第一外延结构。本实施例中由于侧墙141还形成在第一外延结构对应的膜层,因此可以减小采用湿法刻蚀时所形成的开口的大小,进而可以进一步缩小开口的尺寸,降低半导体器件的寄生电容。Specifically, in this embodiment, the sidewall 141 is not only formed in the film layer where the etching stop layer is located, but also in the film layer corresponding to the first epitaxial structure. Due to the isotropy of wet etching, when etching the first epitaxial structure 12, not only an opening is formed, but also part of the first epitaxial structure is etched laterally along the sidewall of the opening. In this embodiment, since the sidewall 141 is also formed in the film layer corresponding to the first epitaxial structure, the size of the opening formed when wet etching is used can be reduced, and the size of the opening can be further reduced, thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance of the semiconductor device.

步骤S150,以刻蚀阻挡层及侧墙为掩膜刻蚀第一外延结构以形成开口;Step S150, etching the first epitaxial structure using the etching stop layer and the sidewall spacer as a mask to form an opening;

步骤S160,于开口内形成电极结构。Step S160: forming an electrode structure in the opening.

可选地,在上述实施方式中,预设深度小于或等于第一外延结构对应的开口的深度的一半。Optionally, in the above embodiment, the preset depth is less than or equal to half the depth of the opening corresponding to the first epitaxial structure.

具体地,若预设深度较大,可能会影响半导体器件的栅极特性,从而影响半导体器件的性能。因此通过本实施例中预设深度的设置,既能够保证半导体器件的开口尺寸较小,又能够降低对半导体器件性能的影响。Specifically, if the preset depth is large, it may affect the gate characteristics of the semiconductor device, thereby affecting the performance of the semiconductor device. Therefore, by setting the preset depth in this embodiment, it is possible to ensure that the opening size of the semiconductor device is small and reduce the impact on the performance of the semiconductor device.

可选地,参考图2,在上述实施例中,于衬底上形成第一外延结构包括:于衬底上形成GaN层121、AlN层122、AlGaN层123以及UGaN层124中一种或几种的组合。其中,GaN层为沟道层,本实施例的开口可以全部贯穿UGaN层、AlGaN层以及AlN层,并可以部分贯穿GaN层。在后续制作第二外延结构前,还可先在覆盖一层AlGaN层。Optionally, referring to FIG. 2 , in the above embodiment, forming the first epitaxial structure on the substrate includes: forming one or a combination of a GaN layer 121, an AlN layer 122, an AlGaN layer 123, and a UGaN layer 124 on the substrate. The GaN layer is a channel layer, and the openings of this embodiment can all penetrate the UGaN layer, the AlGaN layer, and the AlN layer, and can partially penetrate the GaN layer. Before the subsequent production of the second epitaxial structure, a layer of AlGaN layer can also be covered first.

Those skilled in the art know that the electrode structure may also include an ohmic metal layer and an electrode metal, etc. The semiconductor device may also include other electrodes, such as a source electrode and a drain electrode, etc.

本发明实施例还提供了一种半导体器件,半导体器件由本发明任意实施例提供的半导体器件的制备方法制备。半导体器件具有开口尺寸小,电极尺寸较小等特征,因而具有较小的寄生电容,使其开关速度较快,更加适用于高频等应用场景。The embodiment of the present invention further provides a semiconductor device, which is prepared by the method for preparing a semiconductor device provided by any embodiment of the present invention. The semiconductor device has the characteristics of small opening size and small electrode size, and thus has small parasitic capacitance, so that its switching speed is faster and more suitable for high-frequency application scenarios.
