摘要:
Different n- and p-types of device fins are formed by epitaxially growing first epitaxial regions of a first type material from a substrate surface at a bottom of first trenches formed between shallow trench isolation (STI) regions. The STI regions and first trench heights are at least 1.5 times their width. The STI regions are etched away to expose the top surface of the substrate to form second trenches between the first epitaxial regions. A layer of a spacer material is formed in the second trenches on sidewalls of the first epitaxial regions. Second epitaxial regions of a second type material are grown from the substrate surface at a bottom of the second trenches between the first epitaxial regions. Pairs of n- and p-type fins can be formed from the first and second epitaxial regions. The fins are co-integrated and have reduced defects from material interface lattice mismatch.

A die includes a semiconductive prominence and a surface-doped structure on the prominence. The surface-doped structure makes contact with contact metallization. The prominence may be a source- or drain contact for a transistor. Processes of making the surface-doped structure include wet- vapor- and implantation techniques, and include annealing techniques to drive in the surface doping to only near-surface depths in the semiconductive prominence.

III-N transistors with recessed gates. An epitaxial stack includes a doped III-N source/drain layer and a III-N etch stop layer disposed between a the source/drain layer and a III-N channel layer. An etch process, e.g., utilizing photochemical oxidation, selectively etches the source/drain layer over the etch stop layer. A gate electrode is disposed over the etch stop layer to form a recessed-gate III-N HEMT. At least a portion of the etch stop layer may be oxidized with a gate electrode over the oxidized etch stop layer for a recessed gate III-N MOS-HEMT including a III-N oxide. A high-k dielectric may be formed over the oxidized etch stop layer with a gate electrode over the high-k dielectric to form a recessed gate III-N MOS-HEMT having a composite gate dielectric stack.

A quantum well transistor has a germanium quantum well channel region. A silicon-containing etch stop layer provides easy placement of a gate dielectric close to the channel. A group III-V barrier layer adds strain to the channel. Graded silicon germanium layers above and below the channel region improve performance. Multiple gate dielectric materials allow use of a high-k value gate dielectric.

Embodiments include high electron mobility transistors (HEMT). In embodiments, a gate electrode is spaced apart by different distances from a source and drain semiconductor region to provide high breakdown voltage and low on-state resistance. In embodiments, self-alignment techniques are applied to form a dielectric liner in trenches and over an intervening mandrel to independently define a gate length, gate-source length, and gate-drain length with a single masking operation. In embodiments, III-N HEMTs include fluorine doped semiconductor barrier layers for threshold voltage tuning and/or enhancement mode operation.
