Abstract
A semiconductor device in which sufficient stress can be applied to a channel region due to lattice constant differences.
Claims28
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, the method comprising:
- forming a gate insulating film above a silicon-based substrate;
- forming a first Ti-N film above the gate insulating film, the first Ti-N film at least including titanium (Ti) and nitrogen (N);
- forming a dummy gate electrode above the first Ti-N film;
- forming a first insulating film that is located at least in part on opposite sides of the dummy gate electrode;
- forming a first recess region by partially removing the silicon-based substrate through recess etching;
- epitaxially growing, on a surface of the first recess region, a source/drain material that includes silicon and an atom having a lattice constant different from a lattice constant of silicon;
- forming a second insulating film that is located at least in part over sides of the first insulating film;
- forming a second recess region by removing a portion of the dummy gate electrode;
- and
- forming a gate electrode in the second recess region above the gate insulating film.
