摘要:
A prompt-shift device having reduced programming time in the sub-millisecond range is provided. The prompt-shift device includes an altered extension region located within said semiconductor substrate and on at least one side of the patterned gate region, and an altered halo region located within the semiconductor substrate and on at least one side of the patterned gate region. The altered extension region has an extension ion dopant concentration of less than about 1E20 atoms/cm3, and the altered extension region has a halo ion dopant concentration of greater than about 5E18 atoms/cm3. The altered halo region is in direct contact with the altered extension region.

摘要:
The invention provides a method to enhance the programmability of a prompt-shift device, which reduces the programming time to sub-millisecond times, by altering the extension and halo implants, instead of simply omitting the same from one side of the device as is the case in the prior art prompt-shift devices. The invention includes an embodiment in which no additional masks are employed, or one additional mask is employed. The altered extension implant is performed at a reduced ion dose as compared to a conventional extension implant process, while the altered halo implant is performed at a higher ion dose than a conventional halo implant. The altered halo/extension implant shifts the peak of the electrical field to under an extension dielectric spacer.

The present invention thus provides a device structure and method for forming fin Field Effect Transistors (FETs) that overcomes many of the disadvantages of the prior art. Specifically, the device structure and method provides the ability to form finFET devices from bulk semiconductor wafers while providing improved wafer to wafer device uniformity. Specifically, the method facilitates the formation of finFET devices from bulk semiconductor wafers with improved fin height control. Additionally, the method provides the ability to form finFETs from bulk semiconductor while providing isolation between fins and between the source and drain region of individual finFETs. Finally, the method can also provide for the optimization of fin width. The device structure and methods of the present invention thus provide the advantages of uniform finFET fabrication while using cost effect bulk wafers.
