摘要:
Techniques are disclosed for forming p-MOS transistors having one or more carbon-based interface layers between epitaxially grown S/D regions and the channel region. In some cases, the carbon-based interface layer(s) may comprise a single layer having a carbon content of greater than 20% carbon and a thickness of 0.5-8 nm. In some cases, the carbon-based interface layer(s) may comprise a single layer having a carbon content of less than 5% and a thickness of 2-10 nm. In some such cases, the single layer may also comprise boron-doped silicon (Si:B) or boron-doped silicon germanium (SiGe:B). In some cases, one or more additional interface layers may be deposited on the carbon-based interface layer(s), where the additional interface layer(s) comprises Si:B and/or SiGe:B. The techniques can be used to improve short channel effects and improve the effective gate length of a resulting transistor.

Monolithic finFETs including a majority carrier channel in a first III-V compound semiconductor material disposed on a second III-V compound semiconductor. While a mask, such as a sacrificial gate stack, is covering the channel region, a source of an amphoteric dopant is deposited over exposed fin sidewalls and diffused into the first III-V compound semiconductor material. The amphoteric dopant preferentially activates as a donor within the first III-V material and an acceptor with the second III-V material, providing transistor tip doping with a p-n junction between the first and second III-V materials. A lateral spacer is deposited to cover the tip portion of the fin. Source/drain regions in regions of the fin not covered by the mask or spacer electrically couple to the channel through the tip region. The channel mask is replaced with a gate stack.
摘要:
Techniques are disclosed for forming high mobility NMOS fin-based transistors having an indium-rich channel region electrically isolated from the sub-fin by an aluminum-containing layer. The aluminum aluminum-containing layer may be provisioned within an indium-containing layer that includes the indium-rich channel region, or may be provisioned between the indium-containing layer and the sub-fin. The indium concentration of the indium-containing layer may be graded from an indium-poor concentration near the aluminum-containing barrier layer to an indium-rich concentration at the indium-rich channel layer. The indium-rich channel layer is at or otherwise proximate to the top of the fin, according to some example embodiments. The grading can be intentional and/or due to the effect of reorganization of atoms at the interface of indium-rich channel layer and the aluminum-containing barrier layer. Numerous variations and embodiments will be appreciated in light of this disclosure.
