    摘要: A method of fabrication of an elevated source/drain (S/D) for a MOS device. A first insulating layer having a gate opening and source/drain openings is formed over a substrate. 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. A first dielectric layer is formed on the substrate in the gate opening and source/drain openings. A gate is formed in the gate opening and raised source/drain (S/D) blocks in the source/drain openings. We remove the spacer blocks to form spacer block openings. We form second LDD regions by implanting ions through the spacer block openings. We form second spacer blocks in the spacer block openings. Plug opening are formed through the raised source/drain (S/D) blocks. Contact plugs are formed in the form plug opening.

    摘要: A CMOS RF device and a method to fabricate said device with low gate contact resistance are described. Conventional MOS transistor is first formed with isolation regions, poly-silicon gate structure, sidewall spacers around poly gate, and implanted source/drain with lightly and heavily doped regions. A silicon dioxide layer such as TEOS is deposited, planarized with chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) to expose the gate and treated with dilute HF etchant to recess the silicon dioxide layer below the surface of the gate. Silicon nitride is then deposited and planarized with CMP and then etched except around the gates, using a oversize poly-silicon gate mask. Inter-level dielectric mask is then deposited, contact holes etched, and contact metal is deposited to form the transistor. During contact hole etch over poly-silicon gate, silicon nitride around the poly gate acts as an etch stop. Resulting structure with direct gate contact achieves significantly reduced gate resistance and thereby improved noise performance at high frequency operation, increased unit power gain frequency (fmax), and reduced gate delay.

    摘要: A method to form a closely-spaced, vertical NMOS and PMOS transistor pair in an integrated circuit device is achieved. A substrate comprises silicon implanted oxide (SIMOX) wherein an oxide layer is sandwiched between underlying and overlying silicon layers. Ions are selectively implanted into a first part of the overlying silicon layer to form a drain, channel region, and source for an NMOS transistor. The drain is formed directly overlying the oxide layer, the channel region is formed overlying the drain, and the source is formed overlying the channel region. Ions are selectively implanted into a second part of the overlying silicon layer to form a drain, channel region, and source for a PMOS transistor. The drain is formed directly overlying the oxide layer, the PMOS channel region is formed overlying the drain, and the source is formed overlying the channel region. The PMOS transistor drain is in contact with said NMOS transistor drain. A gate trench is etched through the NMOS and PMOS sources and channel regions. The gate trench terminates at the NMOS and PMOS drains and exposes the sidewalls of the NMOS and PMOS channel regions. A gate oxide layer is formed overlying the NMOS and PMOS channel regions and lining the gate trench. A polysilicon layer is deposited and etched back to form polysilicon sidewalls and to thereby form gates for the closely-spaced, vertical NMOS and PMOS transistor pair.

    摘要: A method of forming a pseudo-SOI device having elevated source/drain (S/D) regions that can be extended for use as local interconnect is described. Shallow trench isolation (STI) regions separating adjacent active regions are provided within a semiconductor substrate. Polysilicon gate electrodes and associated SID extensions are fabricated in and on the substrate in the active regions wherein a hard mask layer overlies each of the gate electrodes. Dielectric spacers are formed on sidewalls of each of the gate electrodes. A polysilicon layer is deposited overlying the gate electrodes and the substrate. The polysilicon layer is polished back with a polish stop at the hard mask layer. The polysilicon layer is etched back whereby the polysilicon layer is recessed with respect to the gate electrodes. Thereafter, the polysilicon layer is etched away overlying the STI regions where a separation between adjacent active areas is desired. If a local interconnect is desired between adjacent active areas, the polysilicon layer is not etched away overlying the STI region separating those active areas. The hard mask layer is removed. Ions are implanted and driven in to form elevated S/D regions within the polysilicon layer adjacent to the gate electrodes to complete formation of transistors having elevated S/D regions.
