Method for forming gate contact in complementary metal oxide semiconductor

摘要

A method for forming a gate contact is disclosed. The method includes that a semiconductor substrate and a silicon dioxide layer are provided upon the semiconductor substrate. Then, a polysilicon layer is formed upon the oxide layer. Next, defining and etching the polysilicon layer are carried out to form a gate. Implanting upon the top surface of the silicon dioxide layer is achieved so that source/drain region is formed below and abuts the silicon dioxide layer. The source/drain region will be annealed. A spacer can be formed and abuts the sidewall of the gate. A salicide is formed and overlaps the top surface of the gate and over the semiconductor substrate. Then, a gate contact area can be defined upon the top surface of the semiconductor substrate by using a mask that has a pattern covering approximately half of the gate and the spacer. The half of the spacer can be removed without covering by the mask. Finally, implanting will be completed to form the gate contact in the substrate by using the salicide as an implanting mask.
