摘要:
By forming MOSFETs on a substrate having pre-existing ridges of semiconductor material (i.e., a “corrugated substrate”), the resolution limitations associated with conventional semiconductor manufacturing processes can be overcome, and high-performance, low-power transistors can be reliably and repeatably produced. Forming a corrugated substrate prior to actual device formation allows the ridges on the corrugated substrate to be created using high precision techniques that are not ordinarily suitable for device production. MOSFETs that subsequently incorporate the high-precision ridges into their channel regions will typically exhibit much more precise and less variable performance than similar MOSFETs formed using optical lithography-based techniques that cannot provide the same degree of patterning accuracy. Additional performance enhancement techniques such as pulse-shaped doping and “wrapped” gates can be used in conjunction with the segmented channel regions to further enhance device performance.

摘要:
Methods are provided for depositing materials in forming semiconductor devices on a substrate, such as metal oxide transistors. In one embodiment, the invention generally provides a method of processing a substrate including forming a gate dielectric on a substrate having a first conductivity, forming a gate electrode on the gate dielectric, forming a first pair of sidewall spacers along laterally opposite sidewalls of the gate electrode, etching a pair of source/drain region definitions on opposite sides of the electrode, depositing a silicon-germanium material selectively in the source/drain region definitions, and implanting a dopant in the deposited silicon-germanium material to form a source/drain region having a second conductivity.

摘要:
Roughly described, a method for numerically solving a system of equations of the form 0=F(X), for a solution vector X which involves choosing a starting value X0 and iterating Xn+1=Xn−[F′(Xn)+σnDiag F′(Xn)]−1F(Xn). In this iteration, at least one σn is a number greater than 0. Preferably, σn=min {β/n, [αn/(1+nαn)]∥F(Xn)∥}, where β is a constant that remains fixed for all n, and αn=∥F(Xn)∥/∥F(Xn−1)∥.
