Abstract:
A field effect transistor having a T- or Γ-shaped fine gate electrode of which a head portion is wider than a foot portion, and a method for manufacturing the field effect transistor, are provided. A void is formed between the head portion of the gate electrode and a semiconductor substrate using an insulating layer having a multi-layer structure with different etch rates. Since parasitic capacitance between the gate electrode and the semiconductor substrate is reduced by the void, the head portion of the gate electrode can be made large so that gate resistance can be reduced. In addition, since the height of the gate electrode can be adjusted by adjusting the thickness of the insulating layer, device performance as well as process uniformity and repeatability can be improved.

Abstract:
Provided is a method of fabricating a pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (PHEMT). The method includes the steps of: preparing a substrate including a channel layer and a capping layer that is the uppermost layer; forming a source and a drain on the capping layer; forming a first protective layer on the entire surface of the resultant structure and then patterning the first protective layer to expose a portion of the capping layer in a channel region; removing the exposed portion of the capping layer to form a first recess structure; forming a second protective layer on the entire surface of the resultant structure and then patterning the second protective layer to expose a portion of the substrate in the first recess structure so that a second recess structure is formed; forming a multilayered photoresist layer on the entire surface of the resultant structure and then patterning the multilayered photoresist layer to expose a portion of the substrate through the second recess structure and form a gate-shaped opening; and depositing a metal layer to fill the gate-shaped opening and then removing the multilayered photoresist layer to form a gate connected to the substrate through the second recess structure.

Abstract:
The present invention provides a self-aligned gate transistor. The present invention implants P-type impurity ions only below a channel region below a gate and below a source and drain electrode on semiconductor substrate having an ion implantation channel layer without implanting the P-type impurity ions into a narrow region between the source-gate and the gate-drain, deposits a gate metal and etches the gate pattern. In this case, the length (Lg) of the gate is defined to be narrower than the length (Lch-g) into which P-type impurity ions are implanted below the channel layer, thus improving a pinch-off characteristic. A method of manufacturing a field effect transistor having a self aligned gate according to the present invention comprises the steps of implanting P-type impurity ions only below a channel region below a gate and below a source and drain electrode; and depositing a refractory gate metal having a good high temperature stability to form a gate pattern using a dry etch method.
