    摘要: In one embodiment a method is provided that includes providing a structure including a semiconductor substrate having at least one device region located therein, and a doped semiconductor layer located on an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate in the at least one device region. After providing the structure, a sacrificial gate region having a spacer located on sidewalls thereof is formed on an upper surface of the doped semiconductor layer. A planarizing dielectric material is then formed and the sacrificial gate region is removed to form an opening that exposes a portion of the doped semiconductor layer. The opening is extended to an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate and then an anneal is performed that causes outdiffusion of dopant from remaining portions of the doped semiconductor layer forming a source region and a drain region in portions of the semiconductor substrate that are located beneath the remaining portions of the doped semiconductor layer. A high k gate dielectric and a metal gate are then formed into the extended opening.

    摘要: A method of making a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor device includes etching an undercut isolation trench into an SOI substrate, the SOI substrate comprising a bottom substrate, a buried oxide (BOX) layer formed on the bottom substrate, and a top SOI layer formed on the BOX layer, wherein the undercut isolation trench extends through the top SOI layer and the BOX layer and into the bottom substrate such that a portion of the undercut isolation trench is located in the bottom substrate underneath the BOX layer. The undercut isolation trench is filled with an undercut fill comprising an insulating material to form an undercut isolation region. A field effect transistor (FET) device is formed on the top SOI layer adjacent to the undercut isolation region, wherein the undercut isolation region extends underneath a source/drain region of the FET.

    摘要: A fin field-effect-transistor fabricated by forming a dummy fin structure on a semiconductor substrate. A dielectric layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate. The dielectric layer surrounds the dummy fin structure. The dummy fin structure is removed to form a cavity within the dielectric layer. The cavity exposes a portion of the semiconductor substrate thereby forming an exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate within the cavity. A dopant is implanted into the exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate within the cavity thereby creating a dopant implanted exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate within the cavity. A semiconductor layer is epitaxially grown within the cavity atop the dopant implanted exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate.

    摘要: At least one drain-side surfaces of a field effect transistor (FET) structure, which can be a structure for a planar FET or a fin FET, is structurally damaged by an angled ion implantation of inert or electrically active dopants, while at least one source-side surface of the transistor is protected from implantation by a gate stack and a gate spacer. Epitaxial growth of a semiconductor material is retarded on the at least one structurally damaged drain-side surface, while epitaxial growth proceeds without retardation on the at least one source-side surface. A raised epitaxial source region has a greater thickness than a raised epitaxial drain region, thereby providing an asymmetric FET having lesser source-side external resistance than drain-side external resistance, and having lesser drain-side overlap capacitance than source-side overlap capacitance.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor device is provided where in one embodiment an STI fill is recessed below the pad nitride and pad oxide layers, to a level substantially coplanar with the top surface of the substrate. A thin (having a thickness in the range of about 10 Å-100 Å) wet etch resistant layer is formed in contact with and completely covering at least the top surface of the recessed STI fill material. The thin wet etch resistant layer is more resistant to a wet etch process than at least the pad oxide layer. The thin wet etch resistant layer may be a refractory dielectric material, or a dielectric such as HfOx, AlyOx, ZrOx, HfZrOx, and HfSiOx. The inventive wet etch resistant layer improves the wet etch budget of subsequent wet etch processing steps.
