摘要:
A method of fabricating a fin field effect transistor (FinFET) including forming a first insulation region and a second insulation region and fin there between. The method further includes forming a gate stack over a portion of the fin and over a portion of the first and second insulation regions. The method further includes tapering the top surfaces of the first and second insulation regions not covered by the gate stack.
摘要:
An integrated circuit structure includes a substrate having a first portion in a first device region and a second portion in a second device region; and two insulation regions in the first device region and over the substrate. The two insulation regions include a first dielectric material having a first k value. A semiconductor strip is between and adjoining the two insulation regions, with a top portion of the semiconductor strip forming a semiconductor fin over top surfaces of the two insulation regions. An additional insulation region is in the second device region and over the substrate. The additional insulation region includes a second dielectric material having a second k value greater than the first k value.
摘要:
Improved silicide formation and associated devices are disclosed. An exemplary semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a fin structure disposed over the semiconductor substrate and having spaced source and drain regions extending outwardly from a channel region, and a gate structure disposed on a portion of the fin structure, the gate structure engaging the fin structure adjacent to the channel region. The device also includes a first silicide layer disposed on the fin structure, the first silicide layer extending outwardly from the gate structure along a top portion of the source region and a second silicide layer disposed on the fin structure, the second silicide layer extending outwardly from the gate structure along a top portion of the drain region. Further, the device includes a source contact conductively coupled to the first silicide layer and a drain contact conductively coupled to the second silicide layer.
