A field effect transistor includes a vertical fin-shaped semiconductor active region having an upper surface and a pair of opposing sidewalls on a substrate, and an insulated gate electrode on the upper surface and opposing sidewalls of the fin-shaped active region. The insulated gate electrode includes a capping gate insulation layer having a thickness sufficient to preclude formation of an inversion-layer channel along the upper surface of the fin-shaped active region when the transistor is disposed in a forward on-state mode of operation. Related fabrication methods are also discussed.

Methods of forming a semiconductor device having a metal gate electrode include sequentially forming a gate insulator, a gate polysilicon layer and a metal-gate layer on a semiconductor substrate. The metal-gate layer and the gate polysilicon layer are sequentially patterned to form a gate pattern comprising a stacked gate polysilicon pattern and a metal-gate pattern. An oxidation barrier layer is formed to cover at least a portion of a sidewall of the metal-gate pattern.

A method of forming a fin field effect transistor on a semiconductor substrate includes forming a vertical fin protruding from the substrate. A buffer oxide liner is formed on a top surface and on sidewalls of the fin. A trench is then formed on the substrate, where at least a portion of the fin protrudes from a bottom surface of the trench. The trench may be formed by forming a dummy gate on at least a portion of the fin, forming an insulation layer on the fin surrounding the dummy gate, and then removing the dummy gate to expose the at least a portion of the fin, such that the trench is surrounded by the insulation layer. The buffer oxide liner is then removed from the protruding portion of the fin, and a gate is formed in the trench on the protruding portion of the fin.

A trench isolation in a semiconductor device, and a method for fabricating the same, includes: forming a trench having inner sidewalls for device isolation in a silicon substrate; forming an oxide layer on a surface of the silicon substrate that forms the inner sidewalls of the trench; supplying healing elements to the silicon substrate to remove dangling bonds; and filling the trench with a device isolation layer, thereby forming the trench isolation without dangling bonds causing electrical charge traps.

A method of forming a semiconductor device using selective epitaxial growth (SEG) is provided. This method includes forming an insulating layer pattern having a window on a semiconductor substrate. The window exposes a predetermined region of the semiconductor substrate. The substrate having the window is cleaned, thereby removing any native oxide layer on the exposed substrate. The cleaned substrate is oxidized. Accordingly, a sacrificial oxide layer is formed thereon. The sacrificial oxide layer is removed. Thus, the exposed substrate has substantially no crystalline defects. A single crystalline semiconductor layer is then grown on the exposed substrate using SEG.

Methods of forming electrical interconnects on semiconductor substrates include the steps of forming a first electrically insulating layer (e.g., silicon dioxide) and then forming a contact hole in the insulating layer to expose a layer underlying the insulating layer. A first electrically conductive region (e.g., W, Ti, Tin, Al) is then formed in the contact hole. A step is then performed to remove a portion of the first electrically insulating layer to define a recess therein which preferably surrounds an upper portion of the first conductive region. A second electrically conductive region (e.g., Al, Cu, W, Ti, Ta and Co) is then formed in the recess. Here, the first conductive region is preferably chosen to have good step coverage capability to fully bury the contact hole and the second conductive region is preferably chosen to have very low resistance even if some degree of step coverage capability is sacrificed. Planarization steps (e.g, CMP, etch-back) may also be performed to define the first conductive region in the contact hole and define the second conductive region in the recess surrounding the first conductive region. Barrier metal layers may also be conformable deposited in the contact hole prior to forming the first conductive region therein and in the recess prior to forming the second conductive region therein.
