    摘要: A method for forming a semiconductor substrate structure is provided. A compressively strained SiGe layer is formed on a silicon substrate. Atoms are ion-implanted onto the SiGe layer to cause end-of-range damage. Annealing is performed to relax the strained layer. During the annealing, interstitial dislocation loops are formed as uniformly tributed in the SiGe layer. The interstitial dislocation loops provide a basis for nucleation of misfit dislocations between the SiGe layer and the silicon substrate. Since the interstitial dislocation loops are distributed uniformly, the misfit locations are also distributed uniformly, thereby relaxing the SiGe layer. A tensilely strained silicon layer is formed on the relaxed SiGe layer.

    摘要: A semiconductor memory structure having a feature size of less than about 90 nm which exhibits little or no dynamic charge loss and little or no trap assisted junction leakage is provided. Specifically, the semiconductor structure includes at least one back-to-back pair of trench storage memory cells present in a Si-containing substrate. Each memory cell includes a vertical transistor overlaying a trench capacitor. Strap outdiffusions are present on each vertical sidewall of the trench storage memory cells so as to interconnect the vertical transistor and the trench capacitor of each memory cell to the Si-containing substrate. A punchthrough stop doping pocket is located between each back-to-back pair of trench storage memory cells and it is centered between the strap outdiffusions of adjacent storage trenches, and self-aligned to the adjacent storage trenches.

    摘要: A Deep Trench (DT) capacitor in a semiconductor substrate has an isolation collar formed on trench sidewalls above the DT bottom. An outer plate is formed below the collar. Capacitor dielectric is formed on DT walls below the collar. An node electrode is formed in the DT, recessed below the DT top. The collar is recessed in the DT. A combined poly/counter-recrystallizing species cap is formed over the node electrode with a peripheral strap. The cap may be formed after formed a peripheral divot of a recessed collar, followed by forming an intrinsic poly strap in the divot and doping with a counter-recrystallization species, e.g. Ge, into the node electrode and the strap. Alternatively, the node electrode is recessed followed by codeposition of poly and Ge or another counter-recrystallization species to form the cap and strap.

    摘要: A 6F2 memory cell structure and a method of fabricating the same. The memory cell structure includes a plurality of memory cells located in a Si-containing substrate which are arranged in rows and columns. Each memory cell includes a double-gated vertical MOSFET having exposed gate conductor regions and two gates formed on opposing sidewalls of the MOSFETs. The memory cell structure also includes a plurality of wordlines overlaying the double-gated vertical MOSFETs and in contact with the exposed gate conductor regions, and a plurality of bitlines that are orthogonal to the wordlines. Trench isolation regions are located adjacent to the rows of memory cells. The memory cell structure also includes a plurality of punch through stop regions located in the Si-containing substrate and self-aligned to the wordlines and bitlines. A portion of the punch through stop regions overlap each other under the bitlines and each region serves to electrically isolate adjacent buried-strap regions from each other.

Further, the film comprises a material that exerts one of a compressive or a tensile force on the contacted surface of the channel such that electrical mobility of the charge carriers (electrons or holes) along the channel length is increased due to the compressive or tensile force in dependence on alignment of the channel length relative to the crystal structure. Embodiments are given for chips with both hole and electron mobility increased in different transistors, and a method for making such a transistor or chip.

    摘要: A method (and computer program) identify shapes and locations of transistor elements within a geometric circuit layout. The transistor elements include an active area, at least one gate conductor and other transistor elements. Also, the gate conductor has sides running in a first direction, and has a width dimension running in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The method defines regions within the geometric circuit layout. To do so, the method defines a first region having a perimeter positioned along the sides of the gate conductor where the gate conductor intersects the active area and then expands the perimeter of the first region in the second direction to edges of the active area to define a perimeter of a second region. The first region and the second share perimeters in the first direction. The method then expands the perimeter of the second region in the first direction to define a perimeter of a third region. The second region and the third region share perimeters in the second direction. The method then separately evaluates effects the other transistor elements have within each of the first region, the second region, and the third region, to determine a characteristic of the gate conductor.
