Abstract
A semiconductor device is designed to solve the problem of the instability of the surface state of a semiconductor substrate below an oxide layer, based on the generation of a positive charge. According to the invention, an arsenic diffusion-blocking layer (11) is formed between an oxide layer (1) which is formed over one main surface of a semiconductor substrate and an arsenic-containing layer (2) which is formed over the oxide layer (1), and into which hydrogen is diffused in order to block the diffusion of the arsenic contained in the arsenic-containing layer (2) into the oxide layer (1) when annealing is effected, thereby preventing the generation of a positive charge. The invention is applicable to, for example, the field-insulating layer of a complementary MOS integrated circuit or the silicon gate portion of a MOS transistor.

The silicon oxide layer (1), the arsenic diffusion blocking layer (11), the arsenic silica glass layer (2), and the plasma CVD type A field insulating layer (12) is formed by laminating a silicon nitride layer (3). As the arsenic diffusion blocking layer (ίΰ), a plasma CVD type silicon nitride or CVD silicon nitride having a small diffusion coefficient of As may be used.

As a result, an As transition layer is not formed, and no positive charge is generated even if hydrogen in the silicon nitride layer (3) due to the plasma CVD subsequently comes. Therefore, no inversion layer is formed on the surface of the P-type island region (6), an increase in leak current is prevented, and a highly reliable complementary MOS integrated circuit can be obtained.

In this configuration, As the polycrystalline sheet re co down layer is diffused Sarezu the S i 0 2-layer Ru Goo gate insulating layer der. Positive charge even come hydrogen after therefore does not occur. For this reason, the surface level of the channel portion is stable, and fluctuations in the threshold voltage and the like are avoided.
尚、 上例ではフ ィ ー ル ド絶縁層、 シ リ コ ン ゲー ト 部 に本発明を適用 し たが、 その他構成上、 半導体基体の 主面上に酸化物層及び水素が拡散 され得る砒素含有層 を有 し た積層構造に適用 でき る も の で、 本発明ではそ の酸化物層 と 砒素含有層間 に砒素拡散阻止層を形成す る も の であ る。 砒素拡散阻止層 と し ては前記 し たブ ラ ズマ C V D形窒化 シ リ コ ン又は C V D 窒化 シ リ コ ンな ど を用い う る。 砒素含有層 と し ては As SCl ( 砒素 シ リ ケ ― ト ' ガ ラ ス ) 又は As ド ー ブ多結晶 シ リ コ ン な どで あ る。 ま た、 水素の拡散 と し ては、 水素ァ ニ 一 ルゃ砒 素含有層上への C V D膜形成 (S i 3N4, ァモ ル フ ァ ス S i 等 ) 時の水素の存在であ る。 In the above example, the present invention was applied to the field insulating layer and the silicon gate portion. However, due to other configurations, the oxide layer and the arsenic in which hydrogen can be diffused on the main surface of the semiconductor substrate. Since the present invention can be applied to a laminated structure having a containing layer, the present invention forms an arsenic diffusion blocking layer between the oxide layer and the arsenic containing layer. As the arsenic diffusion blocking layer, the above-mentioned plasma CVD type silicon nitride or CVD silicon nitride is used. The arsenic-containing layer is, for example, As SCl (arsenic silicate glass) or As-doped polycrystalline silicon. In addition, the diffusion of hydrogen is caused by the presence of hydrogen during the formation of a CVD film (Si 3 N 4 , amorphous silicon Si, etc.) on a hydrogen arsenic-containing layer. is there.
なお、 ま た、 砒素含有層上に水素の拡散を阻止する ための水素拡散阻止層を設けて も よ い。 こ の と き には 正電荷の発生 に荅与する水素が砒素含有層 中に拡散さ れな いので、 よ り 確実に正電荷の発生が阻止でき る。 In addition, a hydrogen diffusion preventing layer for preventing diffusion of hydrogen may be provided on the arsenic-containing layer. In this case, since the hydrogen that contributes to the generation of the positive charge is not diffused into the arsenic-containing layer, the generation of the positive charge can be more reliably prevented.

By providing an arsenic diffusion blocking layer between the material layer and the arsenic-containing layer where hydrogen can diffuse, As in the arsenic-containing layer diffuses into the oxide layer during annealing. However, the generation of positive charges is prevented. Therefore, a highly reliable semiconductor device can be obtained.
