摘要： A new method is provided for the creation of contact pads to the poly gate of MOS devices. STI regions are formed, layers of gate oxide, poly and SiN are deposited. The poly gate is patterned and etched leaving a layer of SiN on the surface of the gate. An oxide liner is created, an LDD implant is performed, the gate spacers are created and source/drain region implants are performed. A layer of titanium is deposited and annealed, a salicide etchback is performed to the layer of titanium creating silicided surfaces over the source and drain regions. Inter level dielectric (ILD) is deposited, the layer of ILD is polished down to the SiN layer on the top surface of the gate. The layer of SiN is removed creating a recessed gate structure. A stack of layers of titanium-amorphous silicon-titanium (Ti/Si/Ti) or a layer of WSix is deposited over the layer of ILD filling the recess on top of the gate with Ti/Si/Ti. This Ti/Si/Ti (or WSix) is patterned and etched forming a Ti/Si/Ti stack (or layer of WSix) that partially overlays the layer of ILD while also penetrating the recessed opening of the gate electrode. The layer of Ti/Si/Ti is silicided and forms the contact pad to the gate structure.

摘要： A method to form elevated source/drain (S/D) over staircase shaped openings in insulating layers. A gate structure is formed over a substrate. The gate structure is preferably comprised of a gate dielectric layer, gate electrode, first spacers, and hard mask. A first insulating layer is formed over the substrate and the gate structure. A resist layer is formed having an opening over the gate structure and over a lateral area adjacent to the gate structure. We etch the insulating layer through the opening in the resist layer. The etching removes a first thickness of the insulating layer to form a source/drain (S/D) opening. We remove the first spacers and hardmask to form a source/drain (S/D) contact opening. We implant ions into the substrate through the source/drain (S/D) contact opening to form lightly doped drain regions. We form second spacers on the sidewalls of the gate electrode and the gate dielectric and on the sidewalls of the insulating layer in the source/drain (S/D) contact opening and the source/drain (S/D) opening. A conductive layer is deposited over the gate electrode, the insulating layer. The conductive layer is planarized to exposed the insulating layer to form elevated source/drain (S/D) blocks on a staircase shape insulating layer.

摘要： The invention describes three embodiments of methods for forming a balloon shaped STI trench. The first embodiment begins by forming a barrier layer over a substrate. An isolation opening is formed in the barrier layer. Next, ions are implanted into said substrate through said isolation opening to form a Si damaged or doped first region. The first region is selectively etching to form a hole. The hole is filled with an insulating material to form a balloon shaped shallow trench isolation (STI) region. The substrate has active areas between said balloon shaped shallow trench isolation (STI) regions. The second embodiment differs from the first embodiment by forming a trench in the substrate before the implant. The third embodiment forms a liner in the trench before an isotropic etch of the substrate through the trench.

摘要： A method to form a closely-spaced, vertical NMOS and PMOS transistor pair in an integrated circuit device is achieved. A substrate comprise silicon implanted oxide (SIMOX) wherein an oxide layer is sandwiched between underlying and overlying silicon layers. Ions are selectively implanted into a first part of the overlying silicon layer to form a drain, channel region, and source for an NMOS transistor. The drain is formed directly overlying the oxide layer, the channel region is formed overlying the drain, and the source is formed overlying the channel region. Ions are selectively implanted into a second part of the overlying silicon layer to form a drain, channel region, and source for a PMOS transistor. The drain is formed directly overlying the oxide layer, the PMOS channel region is formed overlying the drain, and the source is formed overlying the channel region. The PMOS transistor drain is in contact with said NMOS transistor drain. A gate trench is etched through the NMOS and PMOS sources and channel regions. The gate trench terminates at the NMOS and PMOS drains and exposes the sidewalls of the NMOS and PMOS channel regions. A gate oxide layer is formed overlying the NMOS and PMOS channel regions and lining the gate trench. A polysilicon layer is deposited and etched back to form polysilicon sidewalls and to thereby form gates for the closely-spaced, vertical NMOS and PMOS transistor pair.

摘要： A method for forming a transistor having low overlap capacitance by forming a microtrench at the gate edge to reduce effective dielectric constant is described. A gate electrode is provided overlying a gate dielectric layer on a substrate and having a hard mask layer thereover. An oxide layer is formed overlying the substrate. First spacers are formed on sidewalls of the gate electrode and overlying the oxide layer. Source/drain extensions are implanted. Second spacers are formed on the first spacers. Source/drain regions are implanted. A dielectric layer is deposited overlying the gate electrode and the oxide layer and planarized to the hard mask layer whereby the first and second spacers are exposed. The exposed second spacers and underlying oxide layer are removed. The exposed substrate underlying the second spacers is etched into to form a microtrench undercutting the gate oxide layer at an edge of the gate electrode. The microtrench is filled with an epitaxial oxide layer and planarized to the hard mask layer. The dielectric layer is patterned to form third spacers on the epitaxial oxide layer. The microtrench reduces the effective dielectric constant at the overlap between the gate and the source/drain extensions to complete formation of a transistor having low overlap capacitance.
