Abstract:
Methods and systems for forming stacked transistors. Such methods include forming a lower channel layer on a substrate; forming a pair of vertically aligned gate regions over the lower channel layer; forming a pair of vertically aligned source regions and a pair of vertically aligned drain regions on the lower channel material, each pair separated by an insulator; forming an upper channel material over the source regions, drain regions, and gate regions; and providing electrical access to the source, drain, and gate regions.
Abstract:
The present disclosure reduces and, in some instances, eliminates the density of interface states in III-V compound semiconductor materials by providing a thin crystalline interlayer onto an upper surface of a single crystal III-V compound semiconductor material layer to protect the crystallinity of the single crystal III-V compound semiconductor material layer's surface atoms prior to further processing of the structure.
Abstract:
An on-chip decoupling capacitor is disclosed. One or more carbon nanotubes are coupled to a first electrode of the capacitor. A dielectric skin is formed on the one or more carbon nanotubes. A metal coating is formed on the dielectric skin. The dielectric skin is configured to electrically isolate the one or more carbon nanotubes from the metal coating.

Abstract:
A method for forming a sensor includes forming a channel in substrate, forming a sacrificial layer in the channel, forming a sensor having a first dielectric layer disposed on the substrate, a graphene layer disposed on the first dielectric layer, and a second dielectric layer disposed on the graphene layer, a source region, a drain region, and a gate region, wherein the gate region is disposed on the sacrificial layer removing the sacrificial layer from the channel.
Abstract:
A method of forming a gate structure with a self-aligned contact is provided and includes sequentially depositing a sacrificial layer and a secondary layer onto poly-Si disposed at a location of the gate structure, encapsulating the sacrificial layer, the secondary layer and the poly-Si, removing the sacrificial layer through openings formed in the secondary layer and forming silicide within at least the space formally occupied by the sacrificial layer.
