    摘要: A vertical field effect transistor (“FET”) is provided which includes a transistor body region and source and drain regions disposed in a single-crystal semiconductor-on-insulator (“SOI”) region of a substrate adjacent a sidewall of a trench. The substrate includes a buried insulator layer underlying the SOI region and a bulk region underlying the buried insulator layer. A buried strap conductively connects the SOI region to a lower node disposed below the SOI region and a body contact extends from the transistor body region to the bulk region of the substrate, the body contact being insulated from the buried strap.

    摘要: Trench type PIN photodetectors are formed by etching two sets of trenches simultaneously in a semiconductor substrate, the wide trenches having a width more than twice as great as the narrow trenches by a process margin; conformally filling both types of trenches with a sacrificial material doped with a first dopant and having a first thickness slightly greater than one half the width of the narrow trenches, so that the wide trenches have a remaining central aperture; stripping the sacrificial material from the wide trenches in an etch that removes a first thickness, thereby emptying the wide trenches; a) filling the wide trenches with a second sacrificial material of opposite polarity; or b) doping the wide trenches from the ambient such as by gas phase doping, plasma doping, ion implantation, liquid phase doping, infusion doping and plasma immersion ion implantation; diffusing the dopants into the substrate, forming p and n regions of the PIN diode; removing the first and the second sacrificial materials, and filling both the wide and the narrow sets of trenches with the same conductive material in contact with the diffused p and n regions.

    摘要: An ultra-thin, scaleable MOSFET transistor and fabrication method are described. The transistor features fully self-aligned, raised source/drain junctions on a thin SOI wafer and exhibits low contact resistance, low gate resistance and good device isolation characteristic. No extra lithographic mask steps are required beyond those required by conventional processes. The transistor is completely “bracketed” or surrounded by STI (shallow trench isolation), providing inherent isolation between it and any other devices on the SOI wafer. Gate sidewall spacers are formed outside of the gate area so that the scalability is limited solely by lithography resolution.

    摘要: A method for forming, and a structure for a semiconductor device having vertically-oriented transistors connected to stacked capacitor cells, wherein a contact area for the capacitors enables a compact cell. A vertically-oriented transistor is formed in a trough in a substrate above a buried bit line. The gate conductor may be formed in the trough above the buried bit line, with source and drain diffusions spaced along a sidewall of the trough. Isolation regions are formed in the semiconductor substrate to isolate the transistors. Word lines are formed above the surface of the semiconductor substrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the buried bit lines. A capacitor contact is formed above the surface of the semiconductor substrate at a contact area of an active region between adjacent word lines. The active region is rhomboid in shape, enabling a low capacitor contact resistance, a small bit line and word line pitch, and consequently, a compact capacitor cell.

    摘要: The present invention provides a vertical memory device formed in a silicon-on-insulator substrate, where a bitline contacting the upper surface of the silicon-on-insulator substrate is electrically connected to the vertical memory device through an upper strap diffusion region formed through a buried oxide layer. The upper strap diffusion region is formed by laterally etching a portion of the buried oxide region to produce a divot, in which doped polysilicon is deposited. The upper strap region diffusion region also provides the source for the vertical transistor of the vertical memory device. The vertical memory device may also be integrated with a support region having logic devices formed atop the silicon-on-insulator substrate.
