Technical field
The invention belongs to the high-speed switch technical field, be specifically related to a kind of semiconductor field effect transistor and manufacture method thereof, particularly a kind of depression channel type transistor and manufacture method thereof of using ferroelectric material.
Background technology
The subthreshold value amplitude of oscillation (SS) of Metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistor (MOSFET) is defined as under the sub-threshold region condition of work, needed grid voltage increment when drain current changes an order of magnitude, and its formula is:
In the formula,
Be grid voltage,
Be surface potential,
Be the surface depletion layer capacitance,
Be the gate oxidation layer capacitance,
Be the electric current between the leakage of source.Ideally,
Value be 1, SS at room temperature can reach minimum value 60mv/dec.Be subjected to the restriction of minimum SS value 60mv/dec, the switching speed of the MOSFET under the small size situation is slower.Collision ionization type field effect transistor (IFET) and tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET) can be by changing
Value reduce the SS value, and floating boom transistor (SGFET) can be by changing
Value reduce the SS value.
Recently, a kind of field-effect transistor (Fe-FET) that uses ferroelectric material has been carried, its basic structure as shown in Figure 1, this Fe-FET 100 comprises Semiconductor substrate 101, and forms source region 102 and drain region 103 on substrate 101.FET compares with conventional MOS, has added the thin ferroelectric material 105 of one deck between the gate oxide 104 of Fe-FET 100 and the gate electrode 106.Ferroelectric material layer 105 is equivalent to an electric pressure converter, can the amplifying gate pole tension, and so just can make the SS value be lower than minimum 60mv/dec.
Simultaneously, along with constantly dwindling of MOSFET size, the transistor density that unit matrix lists is also more and more higher, and thing followed short-channel effect is also obvious further.Integrated circuit (IC)-components technology node of today has been in about 50 nanometers, and the leakage current between the MOSFET source-drain electrode rises rapidly along with dwindling of channel length.When channel length drops to 30 nanometers when following, be necessary to use novel device to obtain less leakage current, thereby reduce chip power-consumption.
