    摘要: A semiconductor structure includes a first semiconductor strip extending from a top surface of the semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate, wherein the first semiconductor strip has a first height. A first insulating region is formed in the semiconductor substrate and surrounding a bottom portion of the first semiconductor strip, wherein the first insulating region has a first top surface lower than a top surface of the first semiconductor strip. A second semiconductor strip extends from a top surface of the semiconductor substrate into the semiconductor substrate, wherein the second semiconductor strip has a second height greater than the first height. A second insulating region is formed in the semiconductor substrate and surrounding a bottom portion of the second semiconductor strip, wherein the second insulating region has a second top surface lower than the first top surface, and wherein the first and the second insulating regions have substantially same thicknesses.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes providing a composite substrate, which includes a bulk silicon substrate and a silicon germanium (SiGe) layer over and adjoining the bulk silicon substrate. A first condensation is performed to the SiGe layer to form a condensed SiGe layer, so that the condensed SiGe layer has a substantially uniform germanium concentration. The condensed SiGe layer and a top portion of the bulk silicon substrate are etched to form a composite fin including a silicon fin and a condensed SiGe fin over the silicon fin. The method further includes oxidizing a portion of the silicon fin; and performing a second condensation to the condensed SiGe fin.

    摘要: System and method for reducing contact resistance and prevent variations due to misalignment of contacts is disclosed. A preferred embodiment comprises a non-planar transistor with source/drain regions located within a fin. An inter-layer dielectric overlies the non-planar transistor, and contacts are formed to the source/drain region through the inter-layer dielectric. The contacts preferably come into contact with multiple surfaces of the fin so as to increase the contact area between the contacts and the fin.
