摘要:
A semiconductor device comprises: a p-type semiconductor substrate (1); an insulating film (3); a gate electrode (2) formed an the substrate via the insulating film; and an n-type source/drain region (5) formed on both sides of a channel forming region (4) located under the gate electrode (2) formed on the substrate (1). In particular, the thickness (TOX) of the insulating film (3) is determined to be less than 2.5 nm at conversion rate of silicon oxide film (silicon oxide equivalent thickness); a gate length (Lg) of the gate electrode (2) is determined to be equal to or less than 0.3 μm; and further a voltage applied to the gate electrode (2) and the drain region (6) is determined a be 1.5 V or less. Therefore, in the MOSFET having the tunneling gate oxide film (3), the reliability of the transistor under the hot carrier stress can be improved, and the gate leakage current can be reduced markedly, so that the transistor characteristics can be improved markedly.

Integrated circuits, semiconductor devices and methods for making the same are described. Each embodiment shows a diffused, doped backside layer in a device wafer that is oxide bonded to a handle wafer. The diffused layer may originate in the device handle, in the handle wafer, in the bond oxide or in an additional semiconductor layer of polysilicon or epitaxial silicon. The methods use a thermal bond oxide or a combination of a thermal and deposited oxide.

A SRAM cell includes double-gated PMOS and NMOS transistors to form a latch and retain a value. The unique MOSFET transistor architecture provides a four terminal device for independent gate control, a floating body device, and a dynamic threshold device. The channel may have a U-shaped cross-sectional area to increase the channel length and gate control. First and second insulating spacers are disposed on opposing sides of the top gate such that the first spacer is between the source and the top gate, and the second spacer is between the drain and the top gate. The source and drain include extensions that extend proximate to the spacers and couple to the channel. The spacers shield the channel from the field effect of the source and drain, and further resist compression of the channel by the source and drain.

摘要:
A method for doping one side of a semiconductor substrate, such as in a silicon wafer, wherein an oxide layer is deposited on both the side to be doped and the non-doped side of the semiconductor substrate. A doping layer, containing a doping agent, is deposited onto the oxide layer on the side to be doped. The doping agent passes through the oxide layer on the side to be doped and into the semiconductor substrate. The oxide layer on the non-doped side serves as a protective layer, preventing diffusion of the doping agent into the undoped side of the substrate.

摘要:
A gate insulator layer is formed over the semiconductor substrate and a first silicon layer is then formed over the gate insulator layer. An anti-reflection layer is formed over the first silicon layer. A gate region is defined by removing a portion of the gate insulator layer, a portion of the first silicon layer, and a portion of the anti-reflection layer. A shield layer is then formed over the semiconductor substrate, on the gate insulator layer, and on the first silicon layer. A spacer structure containing first conductivity type dopants is then formed on the gate region. Following the removal of the anti-reflection layer, a second silicon layer containing second conductivity type dopants is formed over the semiconductor substrate and the first silicon layer. Finally, a thermal process is performed to the semiconductor substrate for diffusing the first conductivity type dopants and the second conductivity type dopants into the semiconductor substrate.
摘要:
A method for forming a set of p-channel devices with enhanced n-doping and penetration of boron into the channel region between the source and drain regions, thereby creating channel length independent p-channel threshold voltage behavior. Long channel and short channel transistors have approximately equal threshold voltages as (a) short channel effect is reduced with increased n-doping in short channel transistors (where boron penetration has little effect), and (b) the effects of boron penetration and increased n-doping are offset in longer channel transistors.
摘要:
A polyemitter structure having a thin interfacial layer deposited between the polysilicon emitter contact and the crystalline silicon emitter, as opposed to a regrown SiO.sub.x layer, has improved reproducibility and performance characteristics. A n-doped hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon film can be used as the deposited interfacial film between a crystalline silicon emitter and a polycrystalline silicon contact.
摘要:
In making bipolar transistors, an interfacial oxide layer (5) is formed over ther monocrystalline region (1), and polysilicon (6) is formed both thereon as an extrinsic emitter region. After doping the polysilicon a monocrystalline emitter region (4) is produced in the base region by diffusion from the extrinsic polysilicon emitter region. The oxide layer (5) acts as a diffusion barrier to ensure that excessive dopant does not reach the monocrystalline region.After the above operation, a thermal treatment is effected at a higher temperature, e.g. 1100.degree. C., for a few seconds, which breaks down the interfacial oxide layer referred to above. This temporary use of the interfacial oxide layer leads to better and more consistant transistor characteristics.
