Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for forming integrated circuit structures having a plurality of non-planar transistors. An insulation structure is provided between channel, source, and drain regions of neighboring fins. The insulation structure is formed during back side processing, wherein at least a first portion of the isolation material between adjacent fins is recessed to expose a sub-channel portion of the semiconductor fins. A spacer material is then deposited at least on the exposed opposing sidewalls of the exposed sub-channel portion of each fin. The isolation material is then further recessed to form an air gap between gate, source, and drain regions of neighboring fins. The air gap electrically isolates the source/drain regions of one fin from the source/drain regions of an adjacent fin, and likewise isolates the gate region of the one fin from the gate region of the adjacent fin. The air gap can be filled with a dielectric material.

Abstract: Integrated circuit structures having metal-containing source or drain structures, and methods of fabricating integrated circuit structures having metal-containing source or drain structures, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. A gate stack is around the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. A first epitaxial source or drain structure is at a first end of the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires, and a second epitaxial source or drain structure is at a second end of the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires. The first and second epitaxial source or drain structures include a metal species diffused therein, the metal species further diffused partially into the vertical arrangement of horizontal nanowires.

Abstract: Isolation schemes for gate-all-around (GAA) transistor devices are provided herein Integrated circuit structures including increased transistor source/drain contact area using a sacrificial source/drain layer are provided herein. In some cases, the isolation schemes include changing the semiconductor nanowires/nanoribbons in a targeted channel region between active or functional transistor devices to electrically isolate those active devices. The targeted channel region is referred to herein as a dummy channel region, as it is not used as an actual channel region for an active or functional transistor device. The semiconductor nanowires/nanoribbons in the dummy channel region can be changed by converting them to an electrical insulator and/or by adding dopant that is opposite in type relative to surrounding source/drain material (to create a p-n junction). The isolation schemes described herein enable neighboring active devices to retain strain in the nanowires/nanoribbons of their channel regions, thereby improving device performance.
