摘要:
Method of forming a semiconductor structure which includes an extremely thin silicon-on-insulator (ETSOI) semiconductor structure having a PFET portion and an NFET portion, a gate structure in the PFET portion and the NFET portion, a high quality nitride spacer adjacent to the gate structures in the PFET portion and the NFET portion and a doped faceted epitaxial silicon germanium raised source/drain (RSD) in the PFET portion. Low quality nitride and high quality nitride are formed on the semiconductor structure. The high quality nitride in the NFET portion is damaged by ion implantation to facilitate its removal. A faceted epitaxial silicon RSD is formed on the ETSOI adjacent to the high quality nitride in the NFET portion. The high quality nitride in the PFET portion is damaged by ion implantation to facilitate its removal. Extensions are ion implanted into the ETSOI underneath the gate structure in the NFET portion.

A method is provided to fabricate a semiconductor device, where the method includes providing a substrate comprised of crystalline silicon; implanting a ground plane in the crystalline silicon so as to be adjacent to a surface of the substrate, the ground plane being implanted to exhibit a desired super-steep retrograde well (SSRW) implant doping profile; annealing implant damage using a substantially diffusionless thermal annealing to maintain the desired super-steep retrograde well implant doping profile in the crystalline silicon and, prior to performing a shallow trench isolation process, depositing a silicon cap layer over the surface of the substrate. The substrate may be a bulk Si substrate or a Si-on-insulator substrate. The method accommodates the use of an oxynitride gate stack structure or a high dielectric constant oxide/metal (high-K/metal) gate stack structure. The various thermal processes used during fabrication are selected/controlled so as to maintain the desired super-steep retrograde well implant doping profile in the crystalline silicon.

A method of patterning a semiconductor film is described. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a hard mask material is formed on a silicon film having a global crystal orientation wherein the semiconductor film has a first crystal plane and second crystal plane, wherein the first crystal plane is denser than the second crystal plane and wherein the hard mask is formed on the second crystal plane. Next, the hard mask and semiconductor film are patterned into a hard mask covered semiconductor structure. The hard mask covered semiconductor structured is then exposed to a wet etch process which has sufficient chemical strength to etch the second crystal plane but insufficient chemical strength to etch the first crystal plane.

A method for fabricating a field-effect transistor with a gate completely wrapping around a channel region is described. Ion implantation is used to make the oxide beneath the channel region of the transistor more etchable, thereby allowing the oxide to be removed below the channel region. Atomic layer deposition is used to form a gate dielectric and a metal gate entirely around the channel region once the oxide is removed below the channel region.
