An FET device characterized as being an asymmetrical tunnel FET (TFET) is disclosed. The TFET includes a gate-stack, a channel region underneath the gate-stack, a first and a second junction adjoining the gate-stack and being capable for electrical continuity with the channel. The first junction and the second junction are of different conductivity types. The TFET also includes spacer formations in a manner that the spacer formation on one side of the gate-stack is thinner than on the other side.

A method to achieve multiple threshold voltage (Vt) devices on the same semiconductor chip is disclosed. The method provides different threshold voltage devices using threshold voltage adjusting materials and a subsequent drive in anneal instead of directly doping the channel. As such, the method of the present disclosure avoids short channel penalties. Additionally, no ground plane/back gates are utilized in the present application thereby the method of the present disclosure can be easily integrated into current complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) processing technology.
摘要:
A MOSFET device is formed on top of a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate having a semiconductor layer with a thickness ranging from 3 nm to 20 nm. A stair-shape raised extension, a raised source region and a raised drain region (S/D) are formed on top of the SOI substrate. The thinner raised extension region abuts at a thin gate sidewall spacer, lowering the extension resistance without significantly increasing the parasitic resistance. A single epitaxial growth forms the thinner raised extension and the thicker raised S/D preferably simultaneously, reducing the fabrication cost as well as the contact resistance between the raised S/D and the extension. A method of forming the aforementioned MOSFET device is also provided.

A method for fabricating an FET device characterized as being a tunnel FET (TFET) device is disclosed. The method includes processing a gate-stack, and processing the adjoining source and drain junctions, which are of a first conductivity type. A hardmask is formed covering the gate-stack and the junctions. A tilted angle ion implantation is performed which is received by a first portion of the hardmask, and it is not received by a second portion of the hardmask due to the shadowing of the gate-stack. The implanted portion of the hardmask is removed and one of the junctions is exposed. The junction is etched away, and a new junction, typically in-situ doped to a second conductivity type, is epitaxially grown into its place. A device characterized as being an asymmetrical TFET is also disclosed. The source and drain junctions of the TFET are of different conductivity types, and the TFET also includes spacer formations in a manner that the spacer formation on one side of the gate-stack is thinner than on the other side of the gate-stack.

A device and method for fabrication of fin devices for an integrated circuit includes forming fin structures in a semiconductor material of a semiconductor device wherein the semiconductor material is exposed on sidewalls of the fin structures. A donor material is epitaxially deposited on the exposed sidewalls of the fin structures. A condensation process is applied to move the donor material through the sidewalls into the semiconductor material such that accommodation of the donor material causes a strain in the semiconductor material of the fin structures. The donor material is removed, and a field effect transistor is formed from the fin structure.

A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes providing an active layer and forming adjacent gate structures on the active layer. The gate structures each have sidewalls such that first spacers are formed on the sidewalls. A raised region is epitaxially grown on the active layer between the adjacent gate structures and at least one trench that extends through the raised region and through the active region is formed, whereby the at least one trench separates the raised region into a first raised region corresponding to a first transistor and a second raised region corresponding to a second transistor. The first raised region and second raised region are electrically isolated by the at least one trench.
摘要:
An ETSOI transistor and a capacitor are formed respectively in a transistor and capacitor region thereof by etching through an ETSOI and thin BOX layers in a replacement gate HK/MG flow. The capacitor formation is compatible with an ETSOI replacement gate CMOS flow. A low resistance capacitor electrode makes it possible to obtain a high quality capacitor or varactor. The lack of topography during dummy gate patterning are achieved by lithography in combination accompanied with appropriate etch.
