    摘要: Fluctuation and deterioration of characteristics of a semiconductor device are reduced. The semiconductor device includes a field effect transistor mounted on a semiconductor base. In addition, the field effect transistor includes an insulation layer that includes a first insulation film provided on a main surface of the semiconductor base, and a second insulation film provided on the first insulation film and having etching selectivity higher than etching selectivity of the first insulation film, a gate electrode that has a head part located on the insulation layer and a body part extending from the head part toward the main surface of the semiconductor base and is configured such that the head part has a width larger than a width of the body part, and an embedded film provided between the first insulation film and the body part of the gate electrode in a gate length direction of the gate electrode, and having a relative permittivity equal to or higher than a relative permittivity of the second insulation film.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are methods for forming MOSFETs. In some embodiments, a method may include providing a device structure including a plurality of trenches, and forming a mask over the device structure including within each of the plurality of trenches and over a top surface of the device structure. The method may further include removing the mask from within the trenches, wherein the mask remains along the top surface of the device structure, and implanting the device structure to form a treated layer along a bottom of the trenches. In some embodiments, the method may further include forming a gate oxide layer along a sidewall of each of the trenches and along the bottom of the trenches, wherein a thickness of the oxide along the bottom of the trenches is greater than a thickness of the oxide along the sidewall of each of the trenches.
