    Abstract: Methods form structures that include (among other components) semiconductor fins extending from a substrate, gate insulators contacting channel regions of the semiconductor fins, and gate conductors positioned adjacent the channel regions and contacting the gate insulators. Additionally, epitaxial source/drain material contacts the semiconductor fins on opposite sides of the channel regions, and source/drain conductive contacts contact the epitaxial source/drain material. Also, first insulating spacers are on the gate conductors. The gate conductors are linear conductors perpendicular to the semiconductor fins, and the first insulating spacers are on both sides of the gate conductors. Further, second insulating spacers are on the first insulating spacers; however, the second insulating spacers are only on the first insulating spacers in locations between where the gate conductors intersect the semiconductor fins.

    Abstract: Integrated circuits and methods of forming integrated circuits are provided herein, in which a plurality of semiconductor devices is formed on a semiconductor substrate. At least one through-semiconductor via is formed in the semiconductor substrate and an interlayer dielectric layer is formed overlying the at least one through-semiconductor via and the plurality of semiconductor devices. A first pattern is etched in the interlayer dielectric layer over the at least one through-semiconductor via, and a second pattern different from the first pattern is etched in the interlayer dielectric layer over the same through-semiconductor via as the first pattern. At least one interconnect via is embedded within the interlayer dielectric layer, in electrical communication with one of the at least one through-semiconductor vias. A metal-containing material is deposited in the first pattern and the second pattern to form a first metal layer in electrical communication with the at least one interconnect via.

    Abstract: Methods of forming a CT pillar with reduced width and increased distance from neighboring fins and the resulting devices are provided. Embodiments include providing a first pair of fins and a second pair of fins in an oxide layer, wherein the first and second pair of fins include Si; and forming a CT pillar including SiN between the first and second pair of fins and over a portion of the oxide layer, wherein width of the CT pillar and distance between the CT pillar and the first and second pair of fins are inversely proportional.

    Abstract: Methods are presented for fabricating nanowire structures, such as one or more nanowire field effect transistors. The methods include, for instance: providing a substrate and forming a fin above the substrate so that the fin has a first sidewall including one or more elongate first sidewall protrusions and a second sidewall including one or more elongate second sidewall protrusions, with the one or more elongate second sidewall protrusions being substantially aligned with the one or more elongate first sidewall protrusions; and, anisotropically etching the fin with the elongate first sidewall protrusions and the elongate second sidewall protrusions to define the one or more nanowires. The etchant may be chosen to selectively etch along a pre-defined crystallographic plane, such as the (111) crystallographic plane, to form the nanowire structures.
