Schottky barrier transistor and method of manufacturing the same
A schottky barrier transistor and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The method includes forming a gate insulating layer and a gate on a substrate, forming a spacer on a sidewall of the gate, and growing a polycrystalline silicon layer and a monocrystalline silicon layer on the gate and the substrate, respectively, using a selective silicon growth. A metal is deposited on the polycrystalline silicon layer and the monocrystalline silicon layer. Then, the metal reacts with silicon of the polycrystalline silicon layer and the monocyrstalline silicon layer to form a self-aligned metal silicide layer. Therefore, selective wet etching for removing an unreacted metal after silicidation can be omitted. Furthermore, etching damage caused during the formation of the spacer can be decreased during the growth of the monocrystalline silicon layer, thereby improving the electrical characteristics of devices.
