Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a dielectric layer, forming a plurality of mandrel lines over the dielectric layer, and forming a plurality of non-mandrel lines over the dielectric layer between adjacent ones of the mandrel lines utilizing self-aligned double patterning. The method also includes forming at least one spacer-merge region extending from a first portion of a first one of the mandrel lines to a second portion of a second one of the mandrel lines in a first direction and covering at least a portion of one or more of the non-mandrel lines between the first mandrel and the second mandrel in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The method further includes forming a plurality of trenches in the dielectric layer by transferring a pattern of (i) the mandrel lines and (ii) portions of the non-mandrel lines outside the at least one spacer-merge region.

Abstract: A method of performing co-integrated fabrication of a non-volatile memory (NVM) and a gate-all-around (GAA) nanosheet field effect transistor (FET) includes recessing fins in a channel region of the NVM and the FET to form source and drain regions adjacent to recessed fins, and removing alternating portions of the recessed fins of the NVM and the FET to form gaps in the recessed fins. A stack of layers that make up an NVM structure are conformally deposited within the gaps of the recessed fins leaving second gaps, smaller than the gaps, and above the recessed fins of the NVM while protecting the FET with the organic planarization layer (OPL) and a block mask. The OPL and block mask are removed from the FET, and another OPL and another block mask protect the NVM while a gate of the FET is formed above the recessed fins and within the gaps.
