Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having adjacent deep via substrate contact for sub-fin electrical contact are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a conductive via on a semiconductor substrate. A vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires is above a fin protruding from the semiconductor substrate. A channel region of the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires is electrically isolated from the fin. The fin is electrically coupled to the conductive via. A gate stack is over the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires.

A gate structure is wrapped around the body between the first end portion and the second end portion, where the gate structure includes a gate electrode and a dielectric between the gate electrode and the body. A source is in contact with the first end portion and a drain is in contact with the second end portion. A first spacer material is on opposite sides of the gate electrode and above the first end portion. A second spacer material is adjacent the gate structure and under the first end portion of the nanowire body. The second spacer material is below and in contact with a bottom surface of the source and the drain.

Abstract: Self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures with gate-all-around devices, and methods of fabricating self-aligned gate endcap (SAGE) architectures with gate-all-around devices, are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor fin above a substrate and having a length in a first direction. A nanowire is over the semiconductor fin. A gate structure is over the nanowire and the semiconductor fin, the gate structure having a first end opposite a second end in a second direction, orthogonal to the first direction. A pair of gate endcap isolation structures is included, where a first of the pair of gate endcap isolation structures is spaced equally from a first side of the semiconductor fin as a second of the pair of gate endcap isolation structures is spaced from a second side of the semiconductor fin.

Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having pre-spacer-deposition cut gates are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a first vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires and a second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. A first gate stack is over the first vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires, and a second gate stack is over the second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. An end of the second gate stack is spaced apart from an end of the first gate stack by a gap. The integrated circuit structure also includes a dielectric structure having a first portion forming a gate spacer along sidewalls of the first gate stack, a second portion forming a gate spacer along sidewalls of the second gate stack, and a third portion completely filling the gap, the third portion continuous with the first and second portions.

Abstract: Gate all around semiconductor devices, such as nanowire or nanoribbon devices, are described that include a low dielectric constant (“low-k”) material disposed between a first nanowire closest to the substrate and the substrate. This configuration enables gate control over all surfaces of the nanowires in a channel region of a semiconductor device via the high-k dielectric material, while also preventing leakage current from the first nanowire into the substrate.

The first and second dielectric spacers are over at least a portion of the fin or nanowire. An insulating material is vertically between and in contact with the portion of the fin or nanowire and the first and second dielectric spacers. A first epitaxial source or drain structure is at the first side of the gate stack, and a second epitaxial source or drain structure is at the second side of the gate stack.

A first gate stack is over the first vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. A second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires is above a second fin. A channel region of the second vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires is electrically isolated from the second fin.
