    Abstract: A thin BOX ETSOI device with robust isolation and method of manufacturing. The method includes providing a wafer with at least a pad layer overlying a first semiconductor layer overlying an oxide layer overlying a second semiconductor layer, wherein the first semiconductor layer has a thickness of 10 nm or less. The process continues with etching a shallow trench into the wafer, extending partially into the second semiconductor layer and forming first spacers on the sidewalls of said shallow trench. After spacer formation, the process continues by etching an area directly below and between the first spacers, exposing the underside of the first spacers, forming second spacers covering all exposed portions of the first spacers, wherein the pad oxide layer is removed, and forming a gate structure over the first semiconductor wafer.

    Abstract: At least one drain-side surfaces of a field effect transistor (FET) structure, which can be a structure for a planar FET or a fin FET, is structurally damaged by an angled ion implantation of inert or electrically active dopants, while at least one source-side surface of the transistor is protected from implantation by a gate stack and a gate spacer. Epitaxial growth of a semiconductor material is retarded on the at least one structurally damaged drain-side surface, while epitaxial growth proceeds without retardation on the at least one source-side surface. A raised epitaxial source region has a greater thickness than a raised epitaxial drain region, thereby providing an asymmetric FET having lesser source-side external resistance than drain-side external resistance, and having lesser drain-side overlap capacitance than source-side overlap capacitance.

    Abstract: A semiconductor substrate having an isolation region and method of forming the same. The method includes the steps of providing a substrate having a substrate layer, a buried oxide (BOX), a silicon on insulator (SOI) layer, a pad oxide layer, and a pad nitride layer, forming a shallow trench region, etching the pad oxide layer to form ears and etching the BOX layer to form undercuts, depositing a liner on the shallow trench region, depositing a soft mask over the surface of the shallow trench region, filling the shallow trench region, etching the soft mask so that it is recessed to the top of the BOX layer, etching the liner off certain regions, removing the soft mask, and filling and polishing the shallow trench region. The liner prevents shorting of the semiconductor device when the contacts are misaligned.

    Abstract: A gate dielectric is patterned after formation of a first gate spacer by anisotropic etch of a conformal dielectric layer to minimize overetching into a semiconductor layer. In one embodiment, selective epitaxy is performed to sequentially form raised epitaxial semiconductor portions, a disposable gate spacer, and raised source and drain regions. The disposable gate spacer is removed and ion implantation is performed into exposed portions of the raised epitaxial semiconductor portions to form source and drain extension regions. In another embodiment, ion implantation for source and drain extension formation is performed through the conformal dielectric layer prior to an anisotropic etch that forms the first gate spacer. The presence of the raised epitaxial semiconductor portions or the conformation dielectric layer prevents complete amorphization of the semiconductor material in the source and drain extension regions, thereby enabling regrowth of crystalline source and drain extension regions.
