Abstract: Trench-confined selective epitaxial growth process in which epitaxial growth of a semiconductor device layer proceeds within the confines of a trench. In embodiments, a trench is fabricated to include a pristine, planar semiconductor seeding surface disposed at the bottom of the trench. Semiconductor regions around the seeding surface may be recessed relative to the seeding surface with Isolation dielectric disposed there on to surround the semiconductor seeding layer and form the trench. In embodiments to form the trench, a sacrificial hardmask fin may be covered in dielectric which is then planarized to expose the hardmask fin, which is then removed to expose the seeding surface. A semiconductor device layer is formed from the seeding surface through selective heteroepitaxy. In embodiments, non-planar devices are formed from the semiconductor device layer by recessing a top surface of the isolation dielectric. In embodiments, non-planar devices CMOS devices having high carrier mobility may be made from the semiconductor device layer.

Abstract: Deep gate-all-around semiconductor devices having germanium or group III-V active layers are described. For example, a non-planar semiconductor device includes a hetero-structure disposed above a substrate. The hetero-structure includes a hetero-junction between an upper layer and a lower layer of differing composition. An active layer is disposed above the hetero-structure and has a composition different from the upper and lower layers of the hetero-structure. A gate electrode stack is disposed on and completely surrounds a channel region of the active layer, and is disposed in a trench in the upper layer and at least partially in the lower layer of the hetero-structure. Source and drain regions are disposed in the active layer and in the upper layer, but not in the lower layer, on either side of the gate electrode stack.

Abstract: A group III-N nanowire is disposed on a substrate. A longitudinal length of the nanowire is defined into a channel region of a first group III-N material, a source region electrically coupled with a first end of the channel region, and a drain region electrically coupled with a second end of the channel region. A second group III-N material on the first group III-N material serves as a charge inducing layer, and/or barrier layer on surfaces of nanowire. A gate insulator and/or gate conductor coaxially wraps completely around the nanowire within the channel region. Drain and source contacts may similarly coaxially wrap completely around the drain and source regions.
