摘要:
A semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor body having a top surface and a first and second laterally opposite sidewalls as formed on an insulating substrate is claimed. A gate dielectric is formed on the top surface of the semiconductor body and on the first and second laterally opposite sidewalls of the semiconductor body. A gate electrode is then formed on the gate dielectric on the top surface of the semiconductor body and adjacent to the gate dielectric on the first and second laterally opposite sidewalls of the semiconductor body. The gate electrode comprises a metal film formed directly adjacent to the gate dielectric layer. A pair of source and drain regions are then formed in the semiconductor body on opposite sides of the gate electrode.
摘要:
A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming on a substrate a dielectric layer and a sacrificial structure that comprises a first layer and a second layer, such that the second layer is formed on the first layer and is wider than the first layer. After the sacrificial structure is removed to generate a trench, a metal gate electrode is formed within the trench.
摘要:
A nonplanar semiconductor device having a semiconductor body formed on an insulating layer of a substrate. The semiconductor body has a top surface opposite a bottom surface formed on the insulating layer and a pair of laterally opposite sidewalls wherein the distance between the laterally opposite sidewalls at the top surface is greater than at the bottom surface. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the top surface of the semiconductor body and on the sidewalls of the semiconductor body. A gate electrode is formed on the gate dielectric layer on the top surface and sidewalls of the semiconductor body. A pair of source/drain regions are formed in the semiconductor body on opposite sides of the gate electrode.
摘要:
A method of protecting a sensitive layer from harsh chemistries. The method includes forming a first sensitive layer, forming a second layer upon the first layer, then forming a third layer over the second layer. The third layer is utilized as a mask during patterning of the second layer. During patterning, however, the second layer is only partially etched, thus leaving a buffer layer overlying the first layer. The third layer is completely removed while the buffer layer protects the first layer from the harsh chemicals that are utilized to remove the third layer. Then, the buffer layer is carefully removed down to the surface of the first layer.
摘要:
A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming a high-k gate dielectric layer on a substrate, and forming a sacrificial layer on the high-k gate dielectric layer. After etching the sacrificial layer, first and second spacers are formed on opposite sides of the sacrificial layer. After removing the sacrificial layer to generate a trench that is positioned between the first and second spacers, a metal layer is formed on the high-k gate dielectric layer.
