4-1 結論

第一部分,由前面不同寬度下的基本電性比較中,可以發現在通道寬度較大 時,元件會有較低的臨界電壓和次臨界擺幅與較高的驅動電流(轉換電導)。在寬 度較小的元件中,其通道的寄生電阻較多,影響載子流動使特性變差,而且在寬 度較大的元件中,汲極和源極的空乏區域增加,使得接面電容減小,接面電容的 不同,也間接影響到元件的基本特性[21]。在等效寬度下做比較時也是相同結 果。

第二部分,在不同通道方向的元件基本電性比較中,[110]通道方向元件電 性會比[100]通道(方向旋轉 45∘)元件好,原因在於通道方向旋轉 45∘的元件有 著較小的矽原子密度,因此初始的載子濃度會較小,進而影響元件特性,使的基 本電性變差[22]-[25]。

第三部分,運用應力對電晶體的研究,探討了機械應力對 FinFET 的影響,

由壓阻係數來分析實驗的結果,過程中採用平行電晶體通道的測量方式,主要是 為了獲得較大的數值變化[26][27],在受到下頂伸張的應力時,各項基本電性都 有好轉的趨勢,與之相對的,在受到上頂壓縮的應力時,各項基本電性皆出現下 降的結果,結果證實了應力對元件的影響符合矽壓阻係數的推論。

第四部分,可靠度測試中,經過不同通道寬度下的正偏壓溫度不穩定性實驗 後,元件整體上的退化程度會以寬度較大的元件退化較小,這是因為寬度小的元 件內部電場較強,載子產生穿隧情形,使元件產生缺陷,導致寬度小的元件退化 較嚴重[28]。在不同通道方向的元件可靠度測試中,可以看出元件通道方向旋轉 45∘的元件電性衰退程度比起通道方向未旋轉 45∘的元件要來的低。從結果顯 示出通道方向[100]元件比起通道方向[110]元件有較穩定的退化機制,其原因在 於通道方向[100]的元件有著較低的矽原子密度,因此會產生較低的界面衰退並

擁有較好的可靠度[6]。

4-2 未來展望

在本篇論文中,可以做出最後的結論為基本電性為通道寬度大者較好,而除 上等效寬度後,依舊是通道寬度大者較佳,但差距有縮小的情形;不同通道方向 的元件部分,次臨界斜率和汲極電流雖是通道方向未旋轉的元件較好,但通道方 向旋轉 45o的元件在可靠度測試上較為穩定;元件施加外應力部分,量測的變化 量結果不如預期來的大,但依舊可看出實驗結果趨勢合乎由壓阻係數推論出的結 果,影響實驗的結果推測原因為施加應力過小,未來也許能做更多不同試驗來改 善實驗的結果。

元件的微縮工程一直是半導體發展所關注的重點,立體結構的鰭式場效電晶 體,其擁有優越的電性及可靠度,將半導體研究帶入新的層面,是現代半導體科 技的主流,值得更進一步的研究。
