摘要:
A method of forming a pseudo-SOI device having elevated source/drain (S/D) regions that can be extended for use as local interconnect is described. Shallow trench isolation (STI) regions separating adjacent active regions are provided within a semiconductor substrate. Polysilicon gate electrodes and associated SID extensions are fabricated in and on the substrate in the active regions wherein a hard mask layer overlies each of the gate electrodes. Dielectric spacers are formed on sidewalls of each of the gate electrodes. A polysilicon layer is deposited overlying the gate electrodes and the substrate. The polysilicon layer is polished back with a polish stop at the hard mask layer. The polysilicon layer is etched back whereby the polysilicon layer is recessed with respect to the gate electrodes. Thereafter, the polysilicon layer is etched away overlying the STI regions where a separation between adjacent active areas is desired. If a local interconnect is desired between adjacent active areas, the polysilicon layer is not etched away overlying the STI region separating those active areas. The hard mask layer is removed. Ions are implanted and driven in to form elevated S/D regions within the polysilicon layer adjacent to the gate electrodes to complete formation of transistors having elevated S/D regions.
摘要:
A method of manufacturing a vertical transistor. A doped region is formed in a substrate. We form sequentially on the substrate: a first spacer dielectric layer, a first gate electrode, a second spacer dielectric layer, a second gate electrode and a third spacer dielectric layer. A trench is formed through the first spacer dielectric layer, the first gate electrode, the second spacer dielectric layer, the second gate electrode and the third spacer dielectric layer. The trench has sidewalls. A gate dielectric layer is formed over the sidewalls of the trench. We form sequentially, in the trench: a first doped layer, a first channel layer, a second doped layer, a third doped layer, a second channel layer, and a fourth doped layer. A cap layer is formed over the structure. Contacts are preferably formed to the doped region, doped layers and gate electrodes.
