摘要:
The present invention provides a semiconductor transistor using an L-shaped spacer. The semiconductor transistor includes a gate pattern formed on a semiconductor substrate and an L-shaped third spacer formed beside the gate pattern and having a horizontal protruding portion. An L-shaped fourth spacer is formed between the third spacer and the gate pattern, and between the third spacer and the substrate. A high-concentration junction area is positioned in the substrate beyond the third spacer, and a low-concentration junction area is positioned under the horizontal protruding portion of the third spacer. A medium-concentration junction area is positioned between the high- and low-concentration junction areas.
摘要:
In a CMOS semiconductor device having a substrate, a gate insulating layer formed on the substrate, at least one first polysilicon gate formed over the substrate in at least one PMOS transistor region, and at least one second polysilicon gate formed over the substrate in at least one NMOS transistor region, a total amount of Ge in the first polysilicon gate is the same as that in the second polysilicon gate, a distribution of Ge concentration in the first and/or second polysilicon gate is different according to a distance from the gate insulating layer, and Ge concentration in a portion of the first polysilicon gate adjacent to the gate insulating layer is higher than that in the second polysilicon gate. The Ge concentration in the portion of the first polysilicon gate adjacent to the gate insulating layer is more than two times as high as that in the second polysilicon gate. For example, it is preferable that the Ge concentration in the portion of the first polysilicon gate adjacent to the gate insulating layer is more than 20%, and Ge concentration in a portion of the second polysilicon gate adjacent to the gate insulating layer is below 10%.

摘要:
Field effect transistors (FETs) include an integrated circuit substrate having a surface, and a gate on the surface. A pair of recessed regions in the substrate are located beneath the surface. Respective ones of the recessed regions are located on respective opposite sides of the gate. Each of the recessed regions define a sidewall and a floor. An elevated source/drain structure on each of the recessed regions is at least as thick adjacent to the gate as remote from the gate. A gate spacer may be included between the gate and the elevated source/drain region. The gate spacer can comprise an insulating film. Preferably, the source/drain structure extends to the sidewall of the recessed region. The elevated source/drain structure is preferably free of a facet adjacent the gate. The present invention also relates to methods for fabricating a field effect transistors (FET) having an elevated source/drain structure. These methods may comprise the steps of: providing a integrated circuit substrate having surface and a gate on the integrated circuit substrate; subsequently removing portions of the integrated circuit substrate to form a pair of recessed regions below the surface of the integrated circuit substrate, the recessed region being defined by a floor and sidewall in the integrated circuit substrate; and epitaxially growing a layer on the floor and sidewall of each recessed region.
摘要:
A semiconductor device having a transistor of gate all around (GAA) type and a method of fabricating the same are disclosed. A SOI substrate composed of a SOI layer, a buried oxide layer and a lower substrate is prepared. The SOI layer has at least one unit dual layer of a silicon germanium layer and a silicon layer. The SOI layer is patterned to form an active layer pattern to a certain direction. An insulation layer is formed to cover the active layer pattern. An etch stop layer is stacked on the active layer pattern covered with the insulation layer. The etch stop layer is patterned and removed at a gate region crossing the active layer pattern at the channel region. The insulation layer is removed at the gate region. The silicon germanium layer is isotropically etched and selectively removed to form a cavity at the channel region of the active layer pattern. In the state that the silicon germanium layer is selectively removed, a gate insulation layer is formed to cover the exposed surface of the active layer pattern. A gate conductivity layer is stacked on the substrate by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to fill the gate region including the cavity. The middle part of the channel region of the active layer pattern can be patterned to be divided by multiple patterns that are formed in a line.
