Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having depopulated channel structures, and methods of fabricating gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having depopulated channel structures using a bottom-up oxidation approach, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a vertical arrangement of nanowires above a substrate.

Abstract: Stacked transistor structures having a conductive interconnect between source/drain regions of upper and lower transistors. In some embodiments, the interconnect is provided, at least in part, by highly doped epitaxial material deposited in the upper transistor’s source/drain region. In such cases, the epitaxial material seeds off of an exposed portion of semiconductor material of or adjacent to the upper transistor’s channel region and extends downward into a recess that exposes the lower transistor’s source/drain contact structure. The epitaxial source/drain material directly contacts the lower transistor’s source/drain contact structure, to provide the interconnect. In other embodiments, the epitaxial material still seeds off the exposed semiconductor material of or proximate to the channel region and extends downward into the recess, but need not contact the lower contact structure. Rather, a metal-containing contact structure passes through the epitaxial material of the upper source/drain region and contacts the lower transistor’s source/drain contact structure.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein may be related to creating a low resistance electrical path within a transistor between a front side trench connector and back side contacts and/or metal layers of the transistor. The low resistance electrical path does not go through a fin of the transistor that includes epitaxial material, but rather may go through a conductive path that does not include an epitaxial material. Embodiments may be compatible with a self-aligned back side contact architecture, which does not rely on deep via patterning. Other embodiments may be described and/or shown.

Abstract: Stacked transistor structures having a conductive interconnect between upper and lower transistors. In an embodiment, the interconnect is formed by first provisioning a protective layer over an area to be protected (gate dielectric or other sensitive material) of upper transistor, and then etching material adjacent and below the protected area to expose an underlying contact point of lower transistor. A metal is deposited into the void created by the etch to provide the interconnect. The protective layer is resistant to the etch process and is preserved in the structure, and in some cases may be utilized as a work-function metal. In an embodiment, the protective layer is formed by deposition of reactive semiconductor and metal material layers which are subsequently transformed into a work function metal or work function metal-containing compound. A remnant of unreacted reactive semiconductor material may be left in structure and collinear with protective layer.
