摘要:
A method, semiconductor device, and integrated circuit with a high-k/metal gate without high-k direct contact with STI. A high-k dielectric and a pad film are deposited directly onto a semiconductor substrate. Shallow trench isolation is performed, with shallow trenches etched directly into the pad film, the high-k material, and the substrate. The shallow trench is lined with an oxygen diffusion barrier and is subsequently filled with an insulating dielectric material. Thereafter the pad film and the insulating dielectric are recessed to a point where the oxygen diffusion barrier still remains between the insulating dielectric and the high-k material, preventing any contact there between. Afterwards a conductive gate is formed overlying the device.

An ETSOI transistor and a capacitor are formed respectively in a transistor and capacitor region thereof by etching through an ETSOI and thin BOX layers in a replacement gate HK/MG flow. The capacitor formation is compatible with an ETSOI replacement gate CMOS flow. A low resistance capacitor electrode makes it possible to obtain a high quality capacitor or varactor. The lack of topography during dummy gate patterning are achieved by lithography in combination accompanied with appropriate etch.

摘要:
A common cut mask is employed to define a gate pattern and a local interconnect pattern so that local interconnect structures and gate structures are formed with zero overlay variation relative to one another. A local interconnect structure may be laterally spaced from a gate structure in a first horizontal direction, and contact another gate structure in a second horizontal direction that is different from the first horizontal direction. Further, a gate structure may be formed to be collinear with a local interconnect structure that adjoins the gate structure. The local interconnect structures and the gate structures are formed by a common damascene processing step so that the top surfaces of the gate structures and the local interconnect structures are coplanar with each other.

Transistor devices and methods of their fabrication are disclosed. In one method, a dummy gate structure is formed on a substrate. Bottom portions of the dummy gate structure are undercut. In addition, stair-shaped, raised source and drain regions are formed on the substrate and within at least one undercut formed by the undercutting. The dummy gate structure is removed and a replacement gate is formed on the substrate.

A device and method for reducing junction leakage in a semiconductor junction includes forming a faceted raised structure in a source/drain region of the device. Dopants are diffused from the faceted raised structure into a substrate below the faceted raised structure to form source/drain regions. A sprinkle implantation is applied on the faceted raised structure to produce a multi-depth dopant profile in the substrate for the source/drain regions.

A device and method for inducing stress in a semiconductor layer includes providing a substrate having a dielectric layer formed between a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer. A removable buried layer is provided on or in the second semiconductor layer. A gate structure with side spacers is formed on the first semiconductor layer. Recesses are formed down to the removable buried layer in areas for source and drain regions. The removable buried layer is etched away to form an undercut below the dielectric layer below the gate structure. A stressor layer is formed in the undercut, and source and drain regions are formed.

A transistor structure includes a channel disposed between a source and a drain; a gate conductor disposed over the channel and between the source and the drain; and a gate dielectric layer disposed between the gate conductor and the source, the drain and the channel. In the transistor structure a lower portion of the source and a lower portion of the drain that are adjacent to the channel are disposed beneath and in contact with the gate dielectric layer to define a sharply defined source-drain extension region. Also disclosed is a replacement gate method to fabricate the transistor structure.
摘要:
Methods for fabricating FET device structures are disclosed. The methods include receiving a fin of a Si based material, and converting a region of the fin into an oxide element. The oxide element exerts pressure onto the fin where a Fin-FET device is fabricated. The exerted pressure induces compressive stress in the device channel of the Fin-FET device. The methods also include receiving a rectangular member of a Si based material and converting a region of the member into an oxide element. The methods further include patterning the member that N fins are formed in parallel, while being abutted by the oxide element, which exerts pressure onto the N fins. Fin-FET devices are fabricated in the compressed fins, which results in compressively stressed device channels. FET devices structures are also disclosed. An FET devices structure has a Fin-FET device with a fin of a Si based material. An oxide element is abutting the fin and exerts pressure onto the fin. The Fin-FET device channel is compressively stressed due to the pressure on the fin. A further FET device structure has Fin-FET devices in a row each having fins. An oxide element extending perpendicularly to the row of fins is abutting the fins and exerts pressure onto the fins. Device channels of the Fin-FET devices are compressively stressed due to the pressure on the fins.
