Methods of forming transistors
Abstract:
Some embodiments include methods of forming transistors. Recesses are formed to extend into semiconductor material. The recesses have upper regions lined with liner material and have segments of semiconductor material exposed along lower regions. Semiconductor material is isotropically etched through the exposed segments which transforms the recesses into openings having wide lower regions beneath narrow upper regions. Gate dielectric material is formed along sidewalls of the openings. Gate material is formed within the openings and over regions of the semiconductor material between the openings. Insulative material is formed down the center of each opening and entirely through the gate material. A segment of gate material extends from one of the openings to the other, and wraps around a pillar of the semiconductor material between the openings. The segment is a gate of a transistor. Source/drain regions are formed on opposing sides of the gate.
