摘要:
The invention provides a sealing layer that seals metal bonding structures between three dimensional bonded integrated circuits from a surrounding environment. A material may be applied to fill a volume between the bonded integrated circuits or seal the perimeter of the volume between the bonded integrated circuits. The material may be the same material as that used for underfilling the volume between the bottom integrated circuit and a substrate.

Microelectronic structures embodying the present invention include a field effect transistor (FET) having highly conductive source/drain extensions. Formation of such highly conductive source/drain extensions includes forming a passivated recess which is back filled by epitaxial deposition of doped material to form the source/drain junctions. The recesses include a laterally extending region that underlies a portion of the gate structure. Such a lateral extension may underlie a sidewall spacer adjacent to the vertical sidewalls of the gate electrode, or may extend further into the channel portion of a FET such that the lateral recess underlies the gate electrode portion of the gate structure. In one embodiment the recess is back filled by an in-situ epitaxial deposition of a bilayer of oppositely doped material. In this way, a very abrupt junction is achieved that provides a relatively low resistance source/drain extension and further provides good off-state subthreshold leakage characteristics. Alternative embodiments can be implemented with a back filled recess of a single conductivity type.

An MOS device comprising a gate dielectric formed on a first conductivity type region. A gate electrode formed on the gate dielectric. A pair of sidewall spacers are formed along laterally opposite sidewalls of the gate electrode. A pair of deposited silicon or silicon alloy source/drain regions are formed in the first conductivity region and on opposite sides of a gate electrode wherein the silicon or silicon alloy source/drain regions extend beneath the gate electrode and to define a channel region beneath the gate electrode in the first conductivity type region wherein the channel region directly beneath the gate electrode is larger than the channel region deeper into said first conductivity type region.

Microelectronic structures embodying the present invention include a field effect transistor (FET) having highly conductive source/drain extensions. Formation of such highly conductive source/drain extensions includes forming a passivated recess which is back filled by epitaxial deposition of doped material to form the source/drain junctions. The recesses include a laterally extending region that underlies a portion of the gate structure. Such a lateral extension may underlie a sidewall spacer (108) adjacent to the vertical sidewalls of the gate electrode (106), or may extend further into the channel portion of a FET such that the lateral recess underlies the gate electrode portion of the gate structure. In one embodiment the recess is back filled by an in-situ epitaxial deposition of a bilayer of oppositely doped material. In this way, a very abrupt junction is achieved that provides a relatively low resistance source/drain extension and further provides good off-state subthreshold leakage characteristics. Alternative embodiments can be implemented with a back filled recess of a single conductivity type.
