摘要:
A structure includes a substrate having a carbon nanotube (CNT) disposed over a surface. The CNT is partially disposed within a protective electrically insulating layer. The structure further includes a gate stack disposed over the substrate. A first portion of a length of the CNT not covered by the protective electrically insulating layer passes through the gate stack. Source and drain contacts are disposed adjacent to the gate stack, where second and third portions of the length of CNT not covered by the protective electrically insulating layer are conductively electrically coupled to the source and drain contacts. The gate stack and the source and drain contacts are contained within the protective electrically insulating layer and within an electrically insulating organic planarization layer that is disposed over the protective electrically insulating layer. A method to fabricate a CNT-based transistor is also described.

A semiconductor structure is provided that includes a plurality of vertically stacked and vertically spaced apart semiconductor nanowires (e.g., a semiconductor nanowire mesh) located on a surface of a substrate. One end segment of each vertically stacked and vertically spaced apart semiconductor nanowires is connected to a source region and another end segment of each vertically stacked and vertically spaced apart semiconductor nanowires is connected to a drain region. A gate region including a gate dielectric and a gate conductor abuts the plurality of vertically stacked and vertically spaced apart semiconductor nanowires, and the source regions and the drain regions are self-aligned with the gate region.
