    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a transistor device having epitaxial source and drain regions with dislocation stress memorization (DSM) regions that provide stress to an epitaxial channel region, and an associated method of formation. The transistor device has an epitaxial stack disposed over a semiconductor substrate, and a gate structure disposed over the epitaxial stack. A channel region extends below the gate structure between epitaxial source and drain regions located on opposing sides of the gate structure. First and second dislocation stress memorization (DSM) regions have a stressed lattice that generates stress within the channel region. The first and second DSM regions respectively extend from below the epitaxial source region to a first location within the epitaxial source region from below the epitaxial drain region to a second location within the epitaxial drain region. Using the first and second DSM regions to stress the channel region, improves device performance.

    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an implant that improves long-channel transistor performance with little to no impact on short-channel transistor performance. To mitigate DIBL, both long-channel and short-channel transistors on a substrate are subjected to a halo implant. While the halo implant improves short-channel transistor performance, it degrades long-channel transistor performance. Therefore, a counter-halo implant is performed on the long-channel transistors only to restore their performance. To achieve this, the counter-halo implant is performed at an angle that introduces dopant impurities near the source/drain regions of the long-channel transistors to counteract the effects of the halo implant, while the counter-halo implant is simultaneously shadowed from reaching the channel of the short-channel transistors.

    Abstract translation: 本公开的一些实施例涉及一种改善长沟道晶体管性能的植入物,对短沟道晶体管性能几乎没有影响。 为了减轻DIBL,衬底上的长沟道晶体管和短沟道晶体管都经历晕圈植入。 虽然光晕植入改善了短沟道晶体管的性能,但是它会降低长沟道晶体管的性能。 因此,仅在长沟道晶体管上执行反向注入才能恢复其性能。 为了实现这一点,反向注入以在长沟道晶体管的源极/漏极区附近引入掺杂剂杂质以抵消晕轮植入物的影响的角度进行,而反向晕轮植入物同时被遮蔽而达到 短沟道晶体管的通道。

The first channel region and the second channel region have a dopant profile, respectively along the first length and the second length, which has a dopant concentration that is higher by edges than in a middle of the first channel region and the second channel region. The dopant concentration is also higher by the edges of the first channel region than by the edges of the second channel region.

    Abstract: A method for improving analog gain in long channel devices associated with a semiconductor workpiece is provided. A gate oxide layer is formed on the semiconductor workpiece, and a plurality of gate structures are formed over the gate oxide layer, wherein a first pair of the plurality of gate structures define a short channel device region and a second pair of the plurality of gate structures define a long channel device region. A first ion implantation with a first dopant is performed at a first angle, wherein the first dopant is one of an n-type dopant and a p-type dopant. A second ion implantation with a second dopant is performed at a second angle, wherein the second angle is greater than the first angle. The second dopant is one or an n-type dopant and a p-type dopant that is opposite of the first dopant, and a height of the plurality of gate structures and the second angle generally prevents the second ion implantation from implanting ions into the short channel device region.
