摘要: A semiconductor structure formed based on forming a dummy gate stack on a substrate including a sacrificial spacer on the peripheral of the dummy gate stack. The dummy gate stack is partially recessed. The sacrificial spacer is etched down to the partially recessed dummy gate stack. Remaining portions of the sacrificial spacer are etched leaving gaps around and above a remaining portion of the dummy gate stack. A first low-k spacer portion and a second low-k spacer portion are formed to fill gaps around the dummy gate stack and extend vertically along a sidewall of a dummy gate cavity. The first low-k spacer portion and the second low-k spacer portion are etched. A poly pull process is performed on the dummy gate stack. A replacement metal gate (RMG) structure is formed with the first low-k spacer portion and the second low-k spacer portion.

摘要: A method of making a semiconductor device includes patterning a fin in a substrate; forming a gate between source/drain regions over the substrate, the gate having a dielectric spacer along a sidewall; removing a portion of the dielectric spacer and filling with a metal oxide to form a spacer having a first spacer portion and a second spacer portion; forming a source/drain contact over at least one of the source/drain regions; recessing the source/drain contact and forming a via contact over the source/drain contact; and forming a gate contact over the gate, the gate contact having a first gate contact portion contacting the gate and a second gate contact portion positioned over the first gate contact portion; wherein the first spacer portion isolates the first gate contact portion from the source/drain contact, and the second spacer portion isolates the second gate contact portion from the source/drain contact.

摘要: Embodiments of the present invention may include methods of incorporating an embedded etch barrier layer into the replacement metal gate layer of field effect transistors (FETs) having replacement metal gates, as well as the structure formed thereby. The embedded etch stop layer may be composed of embedded dopant atoms and may be formed using ion implantation. The embedded etch stop layer may make the removal of replacement metal gate layers easier and more controllable, providing horizontal surfaces and determined depths to serve as the base for gate cap formation. The gate cap may insulate the gate from adjacent self-aligned electrical contacts.

摘要: A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a fin-type field effect transistor (finFET) on a first region and a fin varactor on a second region. The finFET includes a first semiconductor fin that extends from an upper finFET surface thereof to the upper surface of the first region to define a first total fin height. The fin varactor includes a second semiconductor fin that extends from an upper varactor surface thereof to the upper surface of the second region to define a second total fin height that is different from the first total fin height of the finFET.
