摘要:
Various embodiments proved a buffer layer that is grown over a silicon substrate that provides desirable isolation for devices formed relative to III-V material device layers, such as InSb-based devices, as well as bulk thin film grown on a silicon substrate. In addition, the buffer layer can mitigate parallel conduction issues between transistor devices and the silicon substrate. In addition, the buffer layer addresses and mitigates lattice mismatches between the film relative to which the transistor is formed and the silicon substrate.
摘要:
A stacking fault and twin blocking barrier for forming a III-V device layer on a silicon substrate and the method of manufacture is described. Embodiments of the present invention enable III-V InSb device layers with defect densities below 1×108 cm−2 to be formed on silicon substrates. In an embodiment of the present invention, a buffer layer is positioned between a III-V device layer and a silicon substrate to glide dislocations. In an embodiment of the present invention, GaSb buffer layer is selected on the basis of lattice constant, band gap, and melting point to prevent many lattice defects from propagating out of the buffer into the III-V device layer. In a specific embodiment, a III-V InSb device layer is formed directly on the GaSb buffer.

摘要:
A composite buffer architecture for forming a III-V device layer on a silicon substrate and the method of manufacture is described. Embodiments of the present invention enable III-V InSb device layers with defect densities below 1×108 cm−2 to be formed on silicon substrates. In an embodiment of the present invention, a dual buffer layer is positioned between a III-V device layer and a silicon substrate to glide dislocations and provide electrical isolation. In an embodiment of the present invention, the material of each buffer layer is selected on the basis of lattice constant, band gap, and melting point to prevent many lattice defects from propagating out of the buffer into the III-V device layer. In a specific embodiment, a GaSb/AlSb buffer is utilized to form an InSb-based quantum well transistor on a silicon substrate.
摘要:
Embodiments of the invention provide a substrate with a device layer having different crystal orientations in different portions or areas. One layer of material having one crystal orientation may be bonded to a substrate having another crystal orientation. Then, a portion of the layer may be amorphized and annealed to be re-crystallized to the crystal orientation of the substrate. N- and P-type devices, such as tri-gate devices, may both be formed on the substrate, with each type of device having the proper crystal orientation along the top and side surfaces of the claimed region for optimum performance. For instance, a substrate may have a portion with a crystal orientation along a top and sidewalls of an NMOS tri-gate transistor and another portion having a crystal orientation along parallel top and sidewall surfaces of a PMOS tri-gate transistor.

摘要:
In one embodiment, a method comprises placing a first and a second substrate into a reaction chamber, the first substrate being made of an indium antimonide material and having a first surface and the second substrate being made of a silicon or a silicon dioxide material and having a second surface; exposing the first and second surfaces to an oxygen plasma; forming a bond between the first and the second substrates by placing the first surface in contact with the second surface; and annealing the first and the second substrates to strengthen the bond.
