摘要:
A method for forming a transistor structure comprising a fin-shaped channel structure, comprising: - providing a layer stack embedded laterally in STI structures; - recessing the STI structures adjacent to the layer stack to thereby expose an upper portion of the layer stack, the upper portion comprising at least a channel portion; - providing one or more protection layers on the upper portion of the layer stack; - after providing one or more protection layers, further recessing the STI structures selectively to the protection layers and the layer stack, to thereby expose a central portion of the layer stack; - removing the central portion of the layer stack, resulting in a freestanding upper part and a lower part of the layer stack being physically separated from each other; wherein providing the layer stack comprises providing an etch stop layer at a position directly below the channel portion, such that the freestanding upper part of the layer stack comprises an etch stop layer at its lower surface after selectively removing the central portion.

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing at least one nanowire Tunnel Field Effect Transistor (TFET) semiconductor device. The method comprises providing a stack (24) comprising a layer of channel material (34) with on top thereof a layer of sacrificial material (21), removing material from the stack (24) so as to form at least one nanowire (30) from the layer of channel material (34) and the layer of sacrificial material (21), and replacing the sacrificial material (21) in the at least one nanowire (30) by heterojunction material (41, 52). A method according to embodiments of the present invention is advantageous as it enables easy manufacturing of complementary TFETs.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the patterning of a plurality of fins in a MugFET device. The present invention is achieved by depositing at least one temporary pattern using photolithography. Further processing steps are a combination of depositing a conformal layer and spacer defined patterning of the conformal layer such that a very high density of fins can be achieved. The distance between the fins is no longer determined by photolithography (only used to define the temporary pattern which is removed in further processing) but by the thickness of the conformal layer (all fins are defined by spacers). Additionally an improved line edge roughness will be achieved for the fins using the method of the invention.
