    摘要: A method patterns pairs of semiconducting fins on an insulator layer and then patterns a linear gate conductor structure over and perpendicular to the fins. Next, the method patterns a mask on the insulator layer adjacent the fins such that sidewalls of the mask are parallel to the fins and are spaced from the fins a predetermined distance. The method performs an angled impurity implant into regions of the fins not protected by the gate conductor structure and the mask. This process forms impurity concentrations within the fins that are asymmetric and that mirror one another in adjacent pairs of fins.

    摘要: A metal gate thermocouple is provided. The thermocouple is configured to measure local temperatures of a device. The thermocouple is a passive device which senses temperature using the thermoelectric principle that when two dissimilar electrically conductive materials are joined, an electrical potential (voltage) is developed between the two materials. The voltage between the materials varies with the temperature of the junction (joint) between the materials. The thermocouple device includes a first conductor comprising a first material formed over a thin oxide layer or a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure and a second conductor comprising a second material formed over the thin oxide layer or the STI structure. The second conductor overlaps with the first conductor to form a thermocouple junction or dimension at least more than an alignment tolerance. The first and second materials are chosen such that the thermocouple junction formed between them exhibits a non-zero Seebeck coefficient. A conductive film formed over the first conductor and the second conductor and a non-conductive void or film is formed over the thermocouple junction.

    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments of an improved integrated circuit device structure (e.g., a static random access memory array structure or other integrated circuit device structure incorporating both P-type and N-type devices) and a method of forming the structure that uses DTI regions for all inter-well and intra-well isolation and, thereby provides a low-cost isolation scheme that avoids FET width variations due to STI-DTI misalignment. Furthermore, because the DTI regions used for intra-well isolation effectively create some floating well sections, which must each be connected to a supply voltage (e.g., Vdd) to prevent threshold voltage (Vt) variations, the disclosed integrated circuit device also includes a shared contact to a junction between the diffusion regions of adjacent devices and an underlying floating well section. This shared contact eliminates the cost and area penalties that would be incurred if a discrete supply voltage contact was required for each floating well section.

    摘要: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a design structure of a multiple fin fin-type field effect transistor (i.e., a multiple fin dual-gate or tri-gate field effect transistor) in which the multiple fins are partially or completely merged by a highly conductive material (e.g., a metal silicide). Merging the fins in this manner allow series resistance to be minimized with little, if any, increase in the parasitic capacitance between the gate and source/drain regions. Merging the semiconductor fins in this manner also allows each of the source/drain regions to be contacted by a single contact via as well as more flexible placement of that contact via.

    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments of semiconductor structure and a method of forming the semiconductor structure that simultaneously maximizes device density and avoids contacted-gate pitch and fin pitch mismatch, when multiple parallel angled fins are formed within a limited area on a substrate and then traversed by multiple parallel gates (e.g., in the case of stacked, chevron-configured, CMOS devices). This is accomplished by using, not a minimum lithographic fin pitch, but rather by using a fin pitch that is calculated as a function of a pre-selected contacted-gate pitch, a pre-selected fin angle and a pre-selected periodic pattern for positioning the fins relative to the gates within the limited area. Thus, the disclosed structure and method allow for the conversion of a semiconductor product design layout with multiple, stacked, planar FETs in a given area into a semiconductor product design layout with multiple, stacked, chevron-configured, non-planar FETs in the same area.

    摘要: Disclosed are embodiments for a design structure of an asymmetric field effect transistor structure and a method of forming the structure in which both series resistance in the source region (Rs) and gate to drain capacitance (Cgd) are reduced in order to provide optimal performance (i.e., to provide improved drive current with minimal circuit delay). Specifically, different heights of the source and drain regions and/or different distances between the source and drain regions and the gate are tailored to minimize series resistance in the source region (i.e., in order to ensure that series resistance is less than a predetermined resistance value) and in order to simultaneously to minimize gate to drain capacitance (i.e., in order to simultaneously ensure that gate to drain capacitance is less than a predetermined capacitance value).
