Abstract: An approach to provide a magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) device that includes a first source/drain contact in a transistor in a semiconductor substrate where the source/drain contact is over a source/drain in the transistor and is surrounded by a first dielectric material. The MRAM device includes a portion of the first source/drain contact connecting to a portion of a bottom electrode of an MRAM device. Furthermore; the MRAM device includes a portion of a top electrode in the MRAM device connecting to a via, wherein the via connects to a M1 metal layer of a semiconductor chip.

Abstract: 6T-SRAM cell designs for larger SRAM arrays and methods of manufacture generally include a single fin device for both nFET (pass-gate (PG) and pull-down (PD)) and pFET (pull-up (PU). The pFET can be configured with a smaller effective channel width (Weff) than the nFET or with a smaller active fin height. An SRAM big cell consumes the (111) 6t-SRAM design area while provide different Weff ratios other than 1:1 for PU/PD or PU/PG as can be desired for different SRAM designs.

Abstract: Forming a first opening in a first double stacked fin and forming a second opening in a second double stacked fin, by removing a high silicon germanium layer, forming a low k spacer, removing a dummy gate, and removing portions of the low k spacer from an outer surface of the first double stacked fin, and an outer surface of the second double stacked fin. A structure including an upper fin of a double stacked fin separated from a lower fin of a double stacked fin by a low k spacer and by a p type field effect transistor work function metal layer (PFET WFM), where a horizontal lower surface of the upper fin is coplanar with a horizontal upper surface of the low k spacer and a horizontal lower surface of the low k spacer is coplanar with a horizontal upper surface of the PFET WFM.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes forming a first inner spacer layer along a substrate and a nanosheet stack disposed on the substrate, performing an ultraviolet (UV) condensation process to form a hardened inner spacer from the first inner spacer layer, forming a second inner spacer layer along the hardened inner spacer, and removing material to form inner spacers by performing an inner spacer etch.

Abstract: Techniques are provided to fabricate embedded insulating layers within an active semiconductor layer of substrate to reduce leakage between field-effect transistor devices and the semiconductor substrate. For example, an epitaxial semiconductor layer is formed on a surface of a semiconductor substrate. An ion implantation process is performed to form an embedded insulation layer within the semiconductor substrate below the epitaxial semiconductor layer. A nanosheet field-effect transistor device is formed over the embedded insulation layer. The nanosheet field-effect transistor device includes active nanosheet channel layers, source/drain layers, and a high-k dielectric/metal gate structure formed around the active nanosheet channel layers. The process of forming the nanosheet field-effect transistor device includes removing the epitaxial semiconductor layer to release the active nanosheet channel layers. The embedded insulation layer isolates the high-k dielectric/metal gate structure and the source/drain layers from the semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: A semiconductor structure is provided that includes a first FinFET device for low power applications and a second FinFET device for non-low power applications. The first FinFET device has an active fin height, i.e., channel height, which is less that an active fin height of the second FinFET device. The active fin height adjustment is achieved utilizing an isolation structure that has a constant height in the region including the first FinFET device and the region including the second FinFET device.
