摘要： An embodiment of the invention includes an epitaxial layer that directly contacts, for example, a nanowire, fin, or pillar in a manner that allows the layer to relax with two or three degrees of freedom. The epitaxial layer may be included in a channel region of a transistor. The nanowire, fin, or pillar may be removed to provide greater access to the epitaxial layer. Doing so may allow for a “all-around gate” structure where the gate surrounds the top, bottom, and sidewalls of the epitaxial layer. Other embodiments are described herein.

摘要： Transistors for high voltage and high frequency operation. A non-planar, polar crystalline semiconductor body having a top surface disposed between first and second opposite sidewalls includes a channel region with a first crystalline semiconductor layer disposed over the first and second sidewalls. The first crystalline semiconductor layer is to provide a two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) within the channel region. A gate structure is disposed over the first crystalline semiconductor layer along at least the second sidewall to modulate the 2DEG. First and second sidewalls of the non-planar polar crystalline semiconductor body may have differing polarity, with the channel proximate to a first of the sidewalls. The gate structure may be along a second of the sidewalls to gate a back barrier. The polar crystalline semiconductor body may be a group III-nitride formed on a silicon substrate with the (10 10) plane on a (110) plane of the silicon.

摘要： Architectures and techniques for co-integration of heterogeneous materials, such as group III-V semiconductor materials and group IV semiconductors (e.g., Ge) on a same substrate (e.g. silicon). In embodiments, multi-layer heterogeneous semiconductor material stacks having alternating nanowire and sacrificial layers are employed to release nanowires and permit formation of a coaxial gate structure that completely surrounds a channel region of the nanowire transistor. In embodiments, individual PMOS and NMOS channel semiconductor materials are co-integrated with a starting substrate having a blanket layers of alternating Ge/III-V layers. In embodiments, vertical integration of a plurality of stacked nanowires within an individual PMOS and individual NMOS device enable significant drive current for a given layout area.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention describe a method of fabricating low resistance contact layers on a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device comprises a substrate having source and drain regions. The substrate is alternatingly exposed to a first precursor and a second precursor to selectively deposit an amorphous semiconductor layer onto each of the source and drain regions. A metal layer is then deposited over the amorphous semiconductor layer on each of the source and drain regions. An annealing process is then performed on the substrate to allow the metal layer to react with amorphous semiconductor layer to form a low resistance contact layer on each of the source and drain regions. The low resistance contact layer on each of the source and drain regions can be formed as either a silicide layer or germanide layer depending on the type of precursors used.
