Vertical field effect transistor with self-aligned contact structure and layout
Abstract:
Provided is a structure of a vertical field effect transistor (VFET) device which includes: a fin structure protruding from a substrate, and having an H-shape in a plan view; a gate including a fin sidewall portion formed on sidewalls of the fin structure, and a field gate portion extended from the fin sidewall portion and filling a space inside a lower half of the fin structure; a gate contact landing on the field gate portion at a position inside the lower half of the fin structure; a bottom epitaxial layer comprising a bottom source/drain (S/D) region, and formed below the fin structure; a power contact landing on the bottom epitaxial layer, and configured to receive a power signal; a top S/D region formed above the fin structure; and a top S/D contact landing on the top S/D region.
