    摘要: Disclosed herein are IC structures, packages, and devices that include III-N transistors integrated on the same support structure as non-III-N transistors (e.g., Si-based transistors), using semiconductor layer transfer. In one aspect, a non-III-N transistor may be integrated with an III-N transistor by, first, depositing a semiconductor material layer, a portion of which will later serve as a channel material of the non-III-N transistor, on a support structure different from that on which the III-N semiconductor material for the III-N transistor is provided, and then performing layer transfer of said semiconductor material layer to the support structure with the III-N material, e.g., by oxide-to-oxide bonding, advantageously enabling implementation of both types of transistors on a single support structure. Such integration may reduce costs and improve performance by enabling integrated digital logic solutions for III-N transistors and by reducing losses incurred when power is routed off chip in a multi-chip package.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are IC structures, packages, and devices that include III-N transistors integrated on the same substrate or die as resonators of RF filters. An example IC structure includes a support structure (e.g., a substrate), a resonator, provided over a first portion of the support structure, and an III-N transistor, provided over a second portion of the support structure. The IC structure includes a piezoelectric material so that first and second electrodes of the resonator enclose a first portion of the piezoelectric material, while a second portion of the piezoelectric material is enclosed between the channel material of the III-N transistor and the support structure. In this manner, one or more resonators of an RF filter may be monolithically integrated with one or more III-N transistors. Such integration may reduce costs and improve performance by reducing RF losses incurred when power is routed off chip.

    摘要: A device including a III-N material is described. In an example, a device includes a first layer including a first group III-nitride (III-N) material and a polarization charge inducing layer, including a second III-N material, above the first layer. The device further includes a gate electrode above the polarization charge inducing layer and a source structure and a drain structure on opposite sides of the gate electrode. The source structure and the drain structure both include a first portion adjacent to the first layer and a second portion above the first portion, the first portion includes a third III-N material with an impurity dopant, and the second portion includes a fourth III-N material, where the fourth III-N material includes the impurity dopant and further includes indium, where the indium content increases with distance from the first portion.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for co-integrating transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC)-based p-channel transistor devices and III-N semiconductor-based n-channel transistor devices. In accordance with some embodiments, a p-channel transistor device configured as described herein may include a layer of TMDC material such as, for example, tungsten diselenide, tungsten disulfide, molybdenum diselenide, or molybdenum disulfide, and an n-channel transistor device configured as described herein may include a layer of III-V material such as, for example, gallium nitride, aluminum nitride, aluminum gallium nitride, and indium aluminum nitride. Transistor structures provided as described herein may be utilized, for instance, in power delivery applications where III-N semiconductor-based n-channel power transistor devices can benefit from being integrated with low-leakage, high-performance p-channel devices providing logic and control circuitry. In some cases, a TMDC-based transistor provided as described herein may exhibit p-channel mobility in excess of bulk Si and thus may exhibit faster performance than traditional Si-based p-channel transistors.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe semiconductor devices with ruthenium phosphorus thin films and further describe the processes to deposit the thin films. The thin films may be deposited in a gate stack of a transistor device or in an interconnect structure. The processes to deposit the films may include chemical vapor deposition and may include ruthenium precursors. The precursors may contain phosphorus. A co-reactant may be used during deposition. A co-reactant may include a phosphorus based compound. A gate material may be deposited on the film in a gate stack. The ruthenium phosphorus film may be a metal diffusion barrier and an adhesion layer, and the film may be a work function metal for some embodiments. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    摘要: Nanoribbon Field Effect Transistors (FETs) offer significant performance increases and energy consumption decreases relative to traditional metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistors. Various embodiments are directed to nanoribbon FETs having III-N channel materials and methods of forming the same. An integrated circuit (IC) structure can include a first layer on a substrate. The first layer can include a group III semiconductor material and nitrogen. The IC structure can include recessed source and drain regions formed on the first layer using planar epitaxy. The IC structure can include a second layer between the recessed source and drain. A gate wraps around at least part of the second layer.
