摘要:
A method of producing a backgated FinFET having different dielectric layer thickness on the front and back gate sides includes steps of introducing impurities into at least one side of a fin of a FinFET to enable formation of dielectric layers with different thicknesses. The impurity, which may be introduced by implantation, either enhances or retards dielectric formation.

A novel transistor structure and method for fabricating the same. First, a substrate, a semiconductor region, a gate dielectric region, and a gate block are provided. The semiconductor region, the gate dielectric region, and the gate block are on the substrate. The gate dielectric region is sandwiched between the semiconductor region and the gate block. The semiconductor region is electrically insulated from the gate block by the gate dielectric region. The semiconductor region and the gate dielectric region share an interface surface which is essentially perpendicular to a top surface of the substrate. The semiconductor region and the gate dielectric region do not share any interface surface that is essentially parallel to a top surface of the substrate. Next, a gate region is formed from the gate block. Then, first and second source/drain regions are formed in the semiconductor region.

A semiconductor structure and method of manufacturing is provided. The method of manufacturing includes forming shallow trench isolation (STI) in a substrate and providing a first material and a second material on the substrate. The first material and the second material are mixed into the substrate by a thermal anneal process to form a first island and second island at an nFET region and a pFET region, respectively. A layer of different material is formed on the first island and the second island. The STI relaxes and facilitates the relaxation of the first island and the second island. The first material may be deposited or grown Ge material and the second material may deposited or grown Si:C or C. A strained Si layer is formed on at least one of the first island and the second island.

The present invention provides a strained-Si structure, in which the nFET regions of the structure are strained in tension and the pFET regions of the structure are strained in compression. Broadly the strained-Si structure comprises a substrate, a first layered stack atop the substrate, the first layered stack comprising a first Si-containing portion of the substrate, a compressive layer atop the Si-containing portion of the substrate, and a semiconducting silicon layer atop the compressive layer; and a second layered stack atop the substrate, the second layered stack comprising a second-silicon containing layer portion of the substrate, a tensile layer atop the second Si-containing portion of the substrate, and a second semiconducting silicon-layer atop the tensile layer.

An integrated circuit includes memory cells having array transistors separated by minimum lithographic feature and unsilicided metal bit lines encapsulated by a diffusion barrier while high performance logic transistors may be formed on the same chip without compromise of performance including an effective channel, silicided contacts for low source/drain contact resistance, extension and halo implants for control of short channel effects and a dual work function semiconductor gate having a high impurity concentration and correspondingly thin depletion layer thickness commensurate with state of the art gate dielectric thickness. This structure is achieved by development of thick/tall structures of differing materials using a mask or anti-spacer, preferably of an easily planarized material, and using a similar mask planarized to the height of the structures of differing materials to decouple substrate and gate implantations in the logic transistors.
摘要:
A process for forming an ultra-shallow junction depth, doped region within a silicon substrate. The process includes forming a dielectric film on the substrate, then implanting an ionic dopant species into the structure. The profile of the implanted species includes a population implanted through the dielectric film and into the silicon substrate, and a peak concentration deliberately confined in the dielectric film in close proximity to the interface between the dielectric film and the silicon substrate. A high-energy, low-dosage implant process is used and produces a structure that is substantially free of dislocation loops and other defect clusters. An annealing process is used to drive the peak concentration closer to the interface, and some of the population of the originally implanted species from the dielectric film into the silicon substrate. A low thermal budget is maintained because of the proximity of the as-implanted peak concentration to the interface and the presence of species implanted through the dielectric film and into the substrate.
摘要:
A semiconductor device and method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. The semiconductor device includes channels for a pFET and an nFET. A SiGe layer is selectively grown in the source and drain regions of the pFET channel and a Si:C layer is selectively grown in source and drain regions of the nFET channel. The SiGe and Si:C layer match a lattice network of the underlying Si layer to create a stress component. In one implementation, this causes a compressive component in the pFET channel and a tensile component in the nFET channel.

A method patterns pairs of semiconducting fins on an insulator layer and then patterns a linear gate conductor structure over and perpendicular to the fins. Next, the method patterns a mask on the insulator layer adjacent the fins such that sidewalls of the mask are parallel to the fins and are spaced from the fins a predetermined distance. The method performs an angled impurity implant into regions of the fins not protected by the gate conductor structure and the mask. This process forms impurity concentrations within the fins that are asymmetric and that mirror one another in adjacent pairs of fins.
