Abstract: In one embodiment, layers comprising Carbon (e.g., Silicon Carbide) are on source/drain regions of a transistor, e.g., before gate formation and metallization, and the layers comprising Carbon are later removed in the manufacturing process to form electrical contacts on the source/drain regions.

Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form gate-all-around (GAA) semiconductor devices utilizing a metal fill in an epi region of a stacked transistor configuration. In one example, an n-channel device and the p-channel device may both be GAA transistors each having any number of nanoribbons extending in the same direction where the n-channel device is located vertically above the p-channel device (or vice versa). Source or drain regions are adjacent to both ends of the n-channel device and the p-channel device. A metal fill may be provided around the source or drain region of the bottom semiconductor device to provide a high contact area between the highly conductive metal fill and the epitaxial material of that source or drain region. Metal fill may also be used around the top source or drain region to further improve conductivity throughout both of the stacked source or drain regions.

Abstract: Integrated circuitry comprising a ribbon or wire (RoW) transistor stack within which the transistors have different threshold voltages (Vt). In some examples, a gate electrode of the transistor stack may include only one workfunction metal. A metal oxide may be deposited around one or more channels of the transistor stack as a solid-state source of a metal oxide species that will diffuse toward the channel region(s). As diffused, the metal oxide may remain (e.g., as a silicate, or hafnate) in close proximity to the channel region, thereby altering the dipole properties of the gate insulator material. Different channels of a transistor stack may be exposed to differing amounts or types of the metal oxide species to provide a range of Vt within the stack. After diffusion, the metal oxide may be stripped as sacrificial, or retained.

Abstract: A capacitor device, such as a metal insulator metal (MIM) capacitor includes a seed layer including tantalum, a first electrode on the seed layer, where the first electrode includes at least one of ruthenium or iridium and an insulator layer on the seed layer, where the insulator layer includes oxygen and one or more of Sr, Ba or Ti. In an exemplary embodiment, the insulator layer is a crystallized layer having a substantially smooth surface. A crystallized insulator layer having a substantially smooth surface facilitates low electrical leakage in the MIM capacitor. The capacitor device further includes a second electrode layer on the insulator layer, where the second electrode layer includes a second metal or a second metal alloy.
