Abstract:
A structure for a transistor that includes an insulator (10) and a silicon structure on the insulator. The silicon structure includes a central portion (155) and Fins (250) extending from ends of the central portion. A first gate (50) is positioned on a first side of the central portion of the silicon structure. A strain-producing layer (11) could be between the first gate (50) and the first side of the central portion (155) of the silicon structure and a second gate (160) is on a second side of the central portion (155) of the silicon structure.
Abstract:
A method and structure for an integrated circuit structure that utilizes complementary fin-type field effect transistors (FinFETs) is disclosed. The invention has a first-type of FinFET which includes a first fin (100), and a second-type of FinFET which includes a second fin (102) running parallel to the first fin (100). The invention also has an insulator fin positioned between the source/drain regions (130) of the first first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The insulator fin has approximately the same width dimensions as the first fin (100) and the second fin (102), such that the spacing between the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET is approximately equal to the width of one fin. The invention also has a common gate (106) formed over channel regions of the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The gate (106) includes a first impurity doping region adjacent the first-type of FinFET and a second impurity doping region adjacent the second-type of FinFET. The differences between the first impurity doping region and the second impurity doping region provide the gate with different work functions related to differences between the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The first fin (100) and the second fin (102) have approximately the same width.
