    摘要: In a method of fabricating a transistor including a buried insulating layer and transistor fabricated using the same, the method includes sequentially forming a sacrificial layer and a top semiconductor layer on a single crystalline semiconductor substrate. A gate pattern is formed on the top semiconductor layer. A sacrificial spacer is formed to cover sidewalls of the gate pattern. An elevated semiconductor layer is grown on a portion of the top semiconductor layer adjacent to the sacrificial spacer. The sacrificial spacer is removed. A portion of the top semiconductor layer from which the sacrificial spacer is removed is etched until the sacrificial layer is exposed, thereby forming a recess, which separates the top semiconductor layer into a first top semiconductor layer pattern and a second top semiconductor layer pattern, which remain under the gate pattern and the elevated semiconductor layer, respectively. The sacrificial layer is selectively removed. A buried insulating layer is formed to fill a region from which the sacrificial layer is removed. A buried semiconductor layer is grown in the recess. An extending recess extends from the recess and is formed to expose the semiconductor substrate. The extending recess separates the buried insulating layer into a first buried insulating layer pattern and a second buried insulating layer pattern, which are self-aligned to the first and second top semiconductor layer patterns, respectively.

    摘要: Methods of fabricating a semiconductor device using a selective epitaxial growth technique include forming a recess in a semiconductor substrate. The substrate having the recess is loaded into a reaction chamber. A semiconductor source gas and a main etching gas are injected into the reaction chamber to selectively grow an epitaxial semiconductor layer on a sidewall and on a bottom surface of the recess. A selective etching gas is injected into the reaction chamber to selectively etch a fence of the epitaxial semiconductor layer which is adjacent to the sidewall of the recess and grown to a level that is higher than an upper surface of the semiconductor substrate.

    摘要: A method of fabricating a semiconductor device having a stress enhanced MOS transistor is provided. A MOS transistor may be formed in a desired, or alternatively, a predetermined region of a semiconductor substrate. A first sacrificial pattern, formed over the source and drain regions of a MOS transistor, may expose sidewall spacers and cover the upper region of the gate pattern. Thinner spacers may be formed by etching the exposed sidewall spacers using the first sacrificial pattern as an etch mask. A stress liner may be formed over the MOS transistor having the thinner spacers.

    摘要: According to some embodiments of the invention, there is provided line photo masks that includes transistors having reinforcement layer patterns and methods of forming the same. The transistors and the methods provide a way of compensating a partially removed amount of a strained silicon layer during semiconductor fabrication processes. To the end, at least one gate pattern is disposed on an active region of a semiconductor substrate. Reinforcement layer patterns are formed to extend respectively from sidewalls of the gate pattern and disposed on a main surface of the semiconductor substrate. Each reinforcement layer pattern partially exposes each sidewall of the gate pattern. Impurity regions are disposed in the reinforcement layer patterns and the active region of the semiconductor substrate and overlap the gate pattern. Spacer patterns are disposed on the reinforcement layer patterns and partially cover the sidewalls of the gate pattern.

    摘要: Disclosed are processes and techniques for fabricating semiconductor substrates for the manufacture of semiconductor devices, particularly CMOS devices, that include selectively formed, high quality single crystal or monocrystalline surface regions exhibiting different crystal orientations. At least one of the surface regions will incorporate at least one faceted epitaxial semiconductor structure having surfaces that exhibit a crystal orientation different than the semiconductor region on which the faceted epitaxial semiconductor structure is formed. According, the crystal orientation in the channel regions of the NMOS and/or PMOS devices may be configured to improve the relative performance of at least one of the devices and allow corresponding redesign of the semiconductor devices fabricated using such a process.
