    摘要: A method of forming a transistor patterns a semiconductor fin on a substrate, such that the fin extends from the substrate. Then, the method forms a gate conductor over a central portion of the fin, leaving end portions of the fin exposed. Next, the end portions of the fin are doped with at least one impurity to leave the central portion of the fin as a semiconductor and form the end portions of the fin as conductors. The end portions of the fin are undercut to disconnect the end portions of the fin from the substrate, such that the fin is connected to the substrate along a central portion and is disconnected from the substrate along the end portions and that the end portions are free to move and the central portion is not free to move. A straining layer is formed on a first side of the fin and the straining layer imparts physical pressure on the fin such that the end portions are permanently moved away from a straight-line orientation with the central portion after the forming of the straining layer. Thus, the undercutting in combination with the forming of the straining layer curves the fin such that, when viewed from a top of the substrate, the fin is bowed and has a curved shape.

    摘要: A method for reducing top notching effects in pre-doped gate structures includes subjecting an etched, pre-doped gate stack structure to a re-oxidation process, the re-oxidation process comprising a radical assisted re-oxidation process so as to result in the formation of an oxide layer over vertical sidewall and horizontal top surfaces of the etched gate stack structure. The resulting oxide layer has a substantially uniform thickness independent of grain boundary orientations of the gate stack structure and independent of the concentration and location of dopant material present therein.
