摘要: IC devices including IC devices including BPRs that form metal-semiconductor junctions with semiconductor sections where the BPRs are partially buried are disclosed. An example IC device includes a first layer comprising semiconductor structures, such as fins, nanowires, or nanoribbons. The IC device also includes a layer comprising an electrically conductive material and coupled to the semiconductor structures. The IC device further includes a support structure comprising a BPR and a semiconductor section. The BPR contacts with the semiconductor section and forms a metal-semiconductor junction. The metal-semiconductor junction constitutes a Schottky barrier for electrons. The IC device may include a SCR including a sequence of p-well, n-well, p-well, and n-well with Schottky barriers in the first p-well and the second n-well. The Schottky barrier may also be used as a guard ring to extract injected charge carriers.

摘要: Techniques to form self-aligned lateral contacts. In an example, a first trench contact contacts a source or drain region of a transistor. A second trench contact includes non-contiguous first and second portions, each portion having a top surface that is co-planar with a top surface of the first trench contact as well as a top surface of the gate structure. A sidewall of the second trench contact is self-aligned to, and interfaces with, a sidewall of the first trench contact. A via extends from the first portion of the second trench contact to an underlying power rail. In some cases, the second portion of the second trench contact extends over a source or drain region of another transistor, without contacting that source or drain region. The fly-over portion of the second trench contact has a maximum height that is shorter than a maximum height of the first trench contact.
