A method for producing a field effect transistor, in which a plurality of layers are in each case deposited, planarized and etched back, in particular a gate electrode layer, is disclosed. This method allows the manufacturing of transistors having outstanding electrical properties and having outstanding reproducibility.
摘要:
An interconnect connection structure having first and second interconnects and multiple connection elements that electrically connect the first interconnect to the second interconnect is described. The multiple connection elements are formed laterally in a lateral region of the first and second interconnects relative to an overlay orientation of the interconnects. A central region may be free of connection elements so that electro-migration properties of the connection structure are improved and the current-carrying capacity is increased.

Disclosed is a method of processing a semiconductor gate structure on a semiconductor wafer, the method comprising providing a semiconductor structure with an active device area capped with a pad oxide layer bounded by one or more isolation trenches, providing a sacrificial oxide layer by thickening said pad oxide layer to a desired oxide thickness, in using said thickened pad oxide layer as said sacrificial oxide layer for device implantation, stripping said sacrificial pad oxide layer after use, and capping said semiconductor gate with a final gate oxide layer.
摘要:
An improved capacitor is formed by a process where an improved node dielectric layer is formed with an improved dielectric constant by performing an Free Radical Enhanced Rapid Thermal Oxidation (FRE RTO) step during formation of the node dielectric layer. Use of an FRE RTO step instead of the conventional furnace oxidation step produces a cleaner oxide with a higher dielectric constant and higher capacitance. Other specific embodiments of the invention include improved node dielectric layer by one or more additional nitridation steps, done by either Remote Plasma Nitridation (RPN), Rapid Thermal Nitridation (RTN), Decoupled Plasma Nitridation (DPN) or other nitridation method; selective oxidation; use of a metal layer rather than a SiN layer as the dielectric base; and selective oxidation of the metal layer.

A trench capacitor structure for improved charge retention and method of manufacturing thereof are provided. A trench is formed in a p-type conductivity semiconductor substrate. An isolation collar is located in an upper portion of the trench. The substrate adjacent the upper portion of the trench contains a first n+ type conductivity region and a second n+ type conductivity region. These regions each abut a wall of the trench and are separated vertically by a portion of the p-type conductivity semiconductor substrate. A void which encircles the perimeter of the trench is formed into the wall of the trench and is located in the substrate between the first and second n+ type conductivity regions.
摘要:
A method for manufacturing III-V semiconductor layers containing nitrogen whereby during the growth of the layers, the setting of the material sources for Al, In and Ga remains fixed. During the transition to the growth of a layer with another mixed-crystal composition, the nitrogen flow is altered. A greater nitrogen flow leads to an increased installation of the more weakly bound group III elements into the growing material.
