摘要:
Self-aligned carbon nanostructure field effect transistor structures are provided, which are foamed using selective dielectric deposition techniques. For example, a transistor device includes an insulating substrate and a gate electrode embedded in the insulating substrate. A dielectric deposition-prohibiting layer is formed on a surface of the insulating substrate surrounding the gate electrode. A gate dielectric is selectively formed on the gate electrode. A channel structure (such as a carbon nanostructure) is disposed on the gate dielectric A passivation layer is selectively formed on the gate dielectric. Source and drain contacts are formed on opposing sides of the passivation layer in contact with the channel structure. The dielectric deposition-prohibiting layer prevents deposition of dielectric material on a surface of the insulating layer surrounding the gate electrode when selectively forming the gate dielectric and passivation layer.

A silicon nitride layer is provided on an uppermost surface of a graphene layer and then a hafnium dioxide layer is provided on an uppermost surface of the silicon nitride layer. The silicon nitride layer acts as a wetting agent for the hafnium dioxide layer and thus prevents the formation of discontinuous columns of hafnium dioxide atop the graphene layer. The silicon nitride layer and the hafnium dioxide layer, which collectively form a low EOT bilayer gate dielectric, exhibit continuous morphology atop the graphene layer.

A method and system are disclosed for doping a semiconductor substrate. In one embodiment, the method comprises forming a carbon free layer of phosphoric acid on a semiconductor substrate, and diffusing phosphorous from the layer of phosphoric acid in the substrate to form an activated phosphorous dopant therein. In an embodiment, the semiconductor substrate is immersed in a solution of a phosphorous compound to form a layer of the phosphorous compound on the substrate, and this layer of phosphorous is processed to form the layer of phosphoric acid. In an embodiment, this processing may include hydrolyzing the layer of the phosphorous compound to form the layer of phosphoric acid. In one embodiment, an oxide cap layer is formed on the phosphoric acid layer to form a capped substrate. The capped substrate may be annealed to diffuse the phosphorous in the substrate and to form the activated dopant.

A fabrication process for a nanoelectronic device and a device are provided. Channel material is deposited on a substrate to form a channel. A source metal contact and a drain metal contact are deposited on the channel material, and the source metal contact and the drain metal contact are on opposing ends of the channel material.

There are provided methods for functionalizing a planar surface of a microelectronic structure, by exposing the surface to at least one vapor including at least one functionalization species, such as NO2 or CH3ONO, that non-covalently bonds to the surface while providing a functionalization layer of chemically functional groups, to produce a functionalized surface. The functionalized surface is exposed to at least one vapor stabilization species that reacts with the functionalization layer to form a stabilization layer that stabilizes the functionalization layer against desorption from the planar microelectronic surface while providing chemically functional groups. The stabilized surface is exposed to at least one material layer precursor species that deposits a material layer on the stabilized planar microelectronic surface. The stabilized planar microelectronic surface can be annealed at a peak annealing temperature that is less than about 700° C.

摘要:
A process of doping a silicon layer with dopant atoms generally includes reacting a vapor of a dopant precursor with oxide and/or hydroxide reactive sites present on the silicon layer to form a self assembled monolayer of dopant precursor; hydrolyzing the self assembled monolayer of the dopant precursor with water vapor to form pendant hydroxyl groups on the dopant precursor; capping the self assembled monolayer with an oxide layer; and annealing the silicon layer at a temperature effective to diffuse dopant atoms from the dopant precursor into the silicon layer. Additional monolayers can be formed in a similar manner, thereby providing controlled layer-by-layer vapor phase deposition of the dopant precursor compounds for controlled doping of silicon.
