摘要:
Devices are formed with an oxide liner and nitride layer before forming eSiGe spacers. Embodiments include forming first and second gate stacks on a substrate, forming an oxide liner over the first and second gate stacks, forming a nitride layer over the oxide liner, forming a resist over the first gate stack, forming nitride spacers from the nitride layer over the second gate stack, forming eSiGe source/drain regions for the second gate stack, subsequently forming halo/extension regions for the first gate stack, and independently forming halo/extension regions for the second gate stack. Embodiments include forming the eSiGe regions by wet etching the substrate with TMAH using the nitride spacers as a soft mask, forming sigma shaped cavities, and epitaxially growing in situ boron doped eSiGe in the cavities.

An integrated circuit with a rectifier element. One embodiment provides a signal source, an electronic circuit and a rectifier element with a copper layer and a cuprous oxide layer adjacent to and in direct contact with the copper layer. The signal source is configured to drive a signal on a signal output terminal that is electrically coupled to the copper layer. The electronic circuit is electrically coupled to the cuprous oxide layer. The rectifier element may be formed between wiring layers of an integrated circuit.

A field-effect transistor is formed that has spacers formed by etching openings into a conductive layer and filling the openings with spacer material. The openings are formed together with a gate web in the conductive layer, wherein the gate web is surrounded by the openings on at least two sides. The spacers serve to define lightly doped drain regions arranged in the underlying substrate between a highly doped drain region and a channel region of the transistor. The transistor thus formed is specifically suited for providing high-voltage currents to memory cells of a non-volatile memory array.
