Abstract: A subfin leakage problem with respect to the silicon-germanium (SiGe)/shallow trench isolation (STI) interface can be mitigated with a halo implant. A halo implant is used to form a highly resistive layer. For example, a silicon substrate layer 204 is coupled to a SiGe layer, which is coupled to a germanium (Ge) layer. A gate is disposed on the Ge layer. An implant is implanted in the Ge layer that causes the layer to become more resistive. However, an area does not receive the implant due to being protected (or covered) by the gate. The area remains less resistive than the remainder of the Ge layer. In some embodiments, the resistive area of a Ge layer can be etched and/or an undercuttage (etch undercut or EUC) can be performed to expose the unimplanted Ge area of the Ge layer.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming a non-planar germanium quantum well structure. In particular, the quantum well structure can be implemented with group IV or III-V semiconductor materials and includes a germanium fin structure. In one example case, a non-planar quantum well device is provided, which includes a quantum well structure having a substrate (e.g. SiGe or GaAs buffer on silicon), a IV or III-V material barrier layer (e.g., SiGe or GaAs or AlGaAs), a doping layer (e.g., delta/modulation doped), and an undoped germanium quantum well layer. An undoped germanium fin structure is formed in the quantum well structure, and a top barrier layer deposited over the fin structure. A gate metal can be deposited across the fin structure. Drain/source regions can be formed at respective ends of the fin structure.

Abstract: III-N semiconductor heterostructures on III-N epitaxial islands laterally overgrown from a mesa of a silicon substrate. An IC may include a III-N semiconductor device disposed on the III-N epitaxial island overhanging the silicon mesa and may further include a silicon-based MOSFET monolithically integrated with the III-N device. Lateral epitaxial overgrowth from silicon mesas may provide III-N semiconductor regions of good crystal quality upon which transistors or other active semiconductor devices may be fabricated. Overhanging surfaces of III-N islands may provide multiple device layers on surfaces of differing polarity. Spacing between separate III-N islands may provide mechanical compliance to an IC including III-N semiconductor devices. Undercut of the silicon mesa may be utilized for transfer of III-N epitaxial islands to alternative substrates.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a low resistance self-aligned contacts to devices formed in a semiconductor heterostructure. The techniques can be used, for example, for forming contacts to the gate, source and drain regions of a quantum well transistor fabricated in III-V and SiGe/Ge material systems. Unlike conventional contact process flows which result in a relatively large space between the source/drain contacts to gate, the resulting source and drain contacts provided by the techniques described herein are self-aligned, in that each contact is aligned to the gate electrode and isolated therefrom via spacer material.

Abstract: A trench comprising a portion of a substrate is formed. A nucleation layer is deposited on the portion of the substrate within the trench. A III-N material layer is deposited on the nucleation layer. The III-N material layer is laterally grown over the trench. A device layer is deposited on the laterally grown III-N material layer. A low defect density region is obtained on the laterally grown material and is used for electronic device fabrication of III-N materials on Si substrates.

Abstract: Trenches (and processes for forming the trenches) are provided that reduce or prevent crystaline defects in selective epitaxial growth of type III-V or Germanium (Ge) material (e.g., a “buffer” material) from a top surface of a substrate material. The defects may result from collision of selective epitaxial sidewall growth with oxide trench sidewalls. Such trenches include (1) a trench having sloped sidewalls at an angle of between 40 degrees and 70 degrees (e.g., such as 55 degrees) with respect to a substrate surface; and/or (2) a combined trench having an upper trench over and surrounding the opening of a lower trench (e.g., the lower trench may have the sloped sidewalls, short vertical walls, or tall vertical walls). These trenches reduce or prevent defects in the epitaxial sidewall growth where the growth touches or grows against vertical sidewalls of a trench it is grown in.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming a GaN transistor on a semiconductor substrate. An insulating layer forms on top of a semiconductor substrate. A trench, filled with a trench material comprising a III-V semiconductor material, forms through the insulating layer and extends into the semiconductor substrate. A channel structure, containing III-V material having a defect density lower than the trench material, forms directly on top of the insulating layer and adjacent to the trench. A source and drain form on opposite sides of the channel structure, and a gate forms on the channel structure. The semiconductor substrate forms a plane upon which both GaN transistors and other transistors can form.
