摘要:
The present invention provides a thin channel MOSFET having low external resistance. In broad terms, a silicon-on-insulator structure comprising a SOI layer located atop a buried insulating layer, said SOI layer having a channel region which is thinned by the presence of an underlying localized oxide region that is located on top of and in contact with said buried insulating layer; and a gate region located atop said SOI layer, wherein said localized oxide region is self-aligned with the gate region. A method for forming the inventive MOSFET is also provided comprising forming a dummy gate region atop a substrate; implanting oxide forming dopant through said dummy gate to create a localized oxide region in a portion of the substrate aligned to the dummy gate region that thins a channel region; forming source/drain extension regions abutting said channel region; and replacing the dummy gate with a gate conductor.
摘要:
The present invention provides a complementary metal oxide semiconductor integration process whereby a plurality of silicided metal gates are fabricated atop a gate dielectric. Each silicided metal gate that is formed using the integration scheme of the present invention has the same silicide metal phase and substantially the same height, regardless of the dimension of the silicide metal gate. The present invention also provides various methods of forming a CMOS structure having silicided contacts in which the polySi gate heights are substantially the same across the entire surface of a semiconductor structure.
