摘要:
An adherent hardmask structure and method of etching a bottom electrode in memory device capacitor structures that dispenses with the need for any adhesion promoter during the etching of the bottom electrode. By using silicon nitride as a hardmask 220, the processing is simplified and a more robust capacitor structure can be produced. Silicon nitride 220 has been shown to yield significantly enhanced adhesion to platinum 210, as compared to silicon oxide formed by any method. Since silicon nitride 220 is oxidation resistant, it advantageously resists any oxygen plasma that might be used in the etch chemistry. This etching process can be used during processing of high-k capacitor structures in DRAMs in the ≧256 Mbit generations.
摘要:
A high-k dielectric capacitor structure and fabrication method that incorporates an adhesion promoting etch stop layer 200 to promote adhesion of the bottom electrode 220 to the interlevel dielectric layer 210 and to provide a well controlled, repeatable and uniform recess prior to the dielectric 230 deposition. By using a sacrificial layer 200, for example silicon nitride (Si3N4), this layer can act as an etch stop during the recess etch to eliminate parasitic capacitance between adjacent capacitor cells A and B and can promote adhesion of the bottom electrode material 220 to the substrate 210.

A method of setting a work function of a filly silicided semiconductor device, and related device. At least some of the illustrative embodiments are methods comprising forming a gate stack over a semiconductor substrate (the gate stack comprising a dielectric layer, a suicide layer on the dielectric layer that defines a metal-dielectric layer interface, and a polysilicon layer on the suicide layer), depositing a metal layer over the gate stack, annealing to induce a reaction between the polysilicon layer and the metal layer, and delivering a work function-setting dopant to the metal-dielectric layer interface by way of the reaction.
摘要:
A method and semiconductor device for forming a uniformly thin dielectric layer on graphene. A metal or semiconductor layer is deposited on graphene which is located on the surface of a dielectric layer or on the surface of a substrate. The metal or semiconductor layer may act as a nucleation layer for graphene. The metal or semiconductor layer may be subjected to an oxidation process. A thin dielectric layer may then be formed on the graphene layer after the metal or semiconductor layer is oxidized. As a result of synthesizing a metal-oxide layer on graphene, which acts as a nucleation layer for the gate dielectric and buffer to graphene, a uniformly thin dielectric layer may be established on graphene without affecting the underlying characteristics of graphene.

摘要:
Processes for synthesizing graphene films. Graphene films may be synthesized by heating a metal or a dielectric on a substrate to a temperature between 400° C. and 1,400° C. The metal or dielectric is exposed to an organic compound thereby growing graphene from the organic compound on the metal or dielectric. The metal or dielectric is later cooled to room temperature. As a result of the above process, standalone graphene films may be synthesized with properties equivalent to exfoliated graphene from natural graphite that is scalable to size far greater than that available on silicon carbide, single crystal silicon substrates or from natural graphite.
摘要:
A method and semiconductor device for synthesizing graphene using ion implantation of carbon. Carbon is implanted in a metal using ion implantation. After the carbon is distributed in the metal, the metal is annealed and cooled in order to precipitate the carbon from the metal to form a layer of graphene on the surface of the metal. The metal/graphene surface is then transferred to a dielectric layer in such a manner that the graphene layer is placed on top of the dielectric layer. The metal layer is then removed. Alternatively, recessed regions are patterned and etched in a dielectric layer located on a substrate. Metal is later formed in these recessed regions. Carbon is then implanted into the metal using ion implantation. The metal may then be annealed and cooled in order to precipitate the carbon from the metal to form a layer of graphene on the metal's surface.
