摘要:
A method and structure for an integrated circuit structure that utilizes complementary fin-type field effect transistors (FinFETs) is disclosed. The invention has a first-type of FinFET which includes a first fin, and a second-type of FinFET which includes a second fin running parallel to the first fin. The invention also has an insulator fin positioned between the source/drain regions of the first first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The insulator fin has approximately the same width dimensions as the first fin and the second fin, such that the spacing between the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET is approximately equal to the width of one fin. The invention also has a common gate formed over channel regions of the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The gate includes a first impurity doping region adjacent the first-type of FinFET and a second impurity doping region adjacent the second-type of FinFET. The differences between the first impurity doping region and the second impurity doping region provide the gate with different work functions related to differences between the first-type of FinFET and the second-type of FinFET. The first fin and the second fin have approximately the same width.

摘要:
A field effect transistor is provided which includes a contiguous single-crystal semiconductor region in which a source region, a channel region and a drain region are disposed. The channel region has an edge in common with the source region as a source edge, and the channel region further has an edge in common with the drain region as a drain edge. A gate conductor overlies the channel region. The field effect transistor further includes a structure which applies a stress at a first magnitude to only one of the source edge and the drain edge while applying the stress at no greater than a second magnitude to another one of the source edge and the drain edge, wherein the second magnitude has a value ranging from zero to about half the first magnitude. In a particular embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the source edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge. In another embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the drain edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge.

A structure, apparatus and method for a FET prime cell surrounded by a conductor is provided. The surrounding conductor includes a substrate contact arranged proximate a source of the FET. The surrounding conductor may be a ring substrate contact arranged within the substrate of the FET in electrical communication with elongated sources of the FET. No external contacts are needed to the ring substrate contact because no current flows therethrough while the ring substrate contact may act as a collection source for noise such as stray currents.

Multilevel metallization layouts for an integrated circuit chip including transistors having first, second and third elements to which metallization layouts connect. The layouts minimize current limiting mechanism including electromigration by positioning the connection for the second contact vertically from the chip, overlapping the planes and fingers of the metallization layouts to the first and second elements and forming a pyramid or staircase of multilevel metallization layers to smooth diagonal current flow.
