摘要:
A method for forming a sub-quarter micron MOSFET having an elevated source/drain structure is described. A gate electrode is formed over a gate dielectric on a semiconductor substrate. Ions are implanted into the semiconductor substrate to form lightly doped regions using the gate electrode as a mask. Thereafter, dielectric spacers are formed on sidewalls of the gate electrode. A polysilicon layer is deposited overlying the semiconductor substrate, gate electrode, and dielectric spacers wherein the polysilicon layer is heavily doped. The polysilicon layer is etched back to leave polysilicon spacers on the dielectric spacers. Dopant is diffused from the polysilicon spacers into the semiconductor substrate to form source and drain regions underlying the polysilicon spacers. The polysilicon spacer on an end of the gate electrode is removed to separate the polysilicon spacers into a source polysilicon spacer and a drain polysilicon spacer thereby completing formation of a MOSFET having an elevated source/drain structure in the fabrication of an integrated circuit device.

A method of fabricating an isolated vertical transistor comprising the following steps. A wafer having a first implanted region selected from the group comprising a source region and a drain region is provided. The wafer further includes STI areas on either side of a center transistor area. The wafer is patterned down to the first implanted region to form a vertical pillar within the center transistor area using a patterned hardmask. The vertical pillar having side walls. A pad dielectric layer is formed over the wafer, lining the vertical pillar. A nitride layer is formed over the pad dielectric layer. The structure is patterned and etched through the nitride layer and the pad dielectric layer; and into the wafer within the STI areas to form STI trenches within the wafer. The STI trenches are filled with insulative material to form STIs within STI trenches. The patterned nitride and pad dielectric layers are removed. The patterned hardmask is removed. Gate oxide is grown over the exposed portions of the wafer and the vertical pillar. Spacer gates are formed over the gate oxide lined side walls of the vertical pillar. Spacer gate implants are formed within the spacer gates, and a second implanted region is formed within the vertical pillar selected from the group consisting of a drain region and a source region that is not the same as the first implanted region to complete formation of the isolated vertical transistor.
摘要:
A method for a self aligned TX with elevated source/drain (S/D) regions on an insulated layer (oxide) by forming a trench along side the STI and filling the trench with oxide. STI regions are formed in a substrate. A gate structure is formed. LDD regions are formed adjacent to the gate structure in the substrate. Spacers are formed on the sidewall of the gate structure. We etch S/D trenches between the STI regions and the first spacers. The S/D trenches are filled with a S/D insulating layer. Elevated S/D regions are formed over the S/D insulating layer and the LDD regions. A top isolation layer is formed over the STI regions. The invention builds the raised source/drain (S/D) regions on an insulating layer and reduces junction leakage and hot carrier degradation to gate oxide.

An improved MOS transistor and method of making an improved MOS transistor. An MOS transistor having a recessed source drain on a trench sidewall with a replacement gate technique. Holes are formed in the shallow trench isolations, which exposes sidewall of the substrate in the active area. Sidewalls of the substrate are doped in the active area where holes are. Conductive material is then formed in the holes and the conductive material becomes the source and drain regions. The etch stop layer is then removed exposing sidewalls of the conductive material, and oxidizing exposed sidewalls of the conductive material is preformed. Spacers are formed on top of the pad oxide and on the sidewalls of the oxidized portions of the conductive material. The pad oxide layer is removed from the structure but not from under the spacers. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the substrate in the active area between the spacers; and a gate electrode is formed on said gate dielectric layer.

A method to form a MOS transistor with a narrow channel regions and a wide top (second) gate portion. A gate dielectic layer and a first gate layer are formed over a substrate. A second gate portion is formed over the first gate layer. Spacers are formed on the sidewalls of the second gate portion. In a critical step, we isotropically etch the first gate layer to undercut the second gate portion to form a first gate portion so that the first portion has a width less than the second gate portion. The spacers are removed. Lightly doped drains, sidewall spacers and source/drain regions are formed to complete the device.

We form a LDD resist mask having opening over the source/drain openings over the first insulating layer. Ions are implanted through the source/drain openings.

Plug opening are formed through the raised source/drain (S/D) blocks. Contact plugs are formed in the form plug opening.

摘要:
This invention relates to the fabrication of intergrated circuit devices and more particularly to a method for reducing the gate to drain and gate to source overlap capacitance of deep sub-micron CMOS devices, as an improved means of reducing device switching times. This is accomplished by customizing the gate insulating layer, such that the dielectric constant, K, is lower in the gate to drain and gate to source overlap regions, relative to the more centrally located gate region between the source and drain. This invention avoids the process control problems associated with using conventional post polysilicon gate oxidation as a means of lowering such overlap capacitance, particularly for the deep sub-micron regime.

Disclosed is a method of fabricating a semiconductor field effect transistor, wherein the gate has a short foot portion in contact with the semiconductor substrate for a short gate length and consequent low capacitance, and a large amount of metal in a contact portion for low gate resistance. Salicides are formed on the T-gate source on drain contact areas resulting in large, low resistance contact areas.
