    摘要: A silicide gate contact is formed which is relatively thicker than silicide contacts formed over source/drain regions and shallow junction extensions. A metal layer is first deposited to form silicide over the polysilicon gate and the source/drain extension regions. The silicide is removed from the extension regions, forming shallow junctions, and a layer of silicide remains on the polysilicon gate. A second metal deposition step and silicidation step forms silicide contacts over the source/drain regions and the polysilicon gate. The resulting silicide gate contact is thicker than the resulting silicide contacts over the source/drain regions.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices having fully metal silicided gate electrodes, and methods for making the same, are disclosed. The devices have shallow S/D extensions with depths of less than about 500 Å. The methods for making the subject semiconductor devices employ diffusion of dopant from metal suicides to form shallow S/D extensions, followed by high energy implantation and activation, and metal silicidation to form S/D junctions having metal silicide connect regions and a fully metal silicided electrode.

    摘要: Semiconductor devices, such as transistors, with a supersaturated concentration of dopant in the source/drain extension and metal silicide contacts enable the production of smaller, higher speed devices. Supersaturated source/drain extensions are subject to dopant diffusion out from the source/drain extension during high temperature metal silicide contact formation. The formation of lower temperature metal silicide contacts, such as nickel silicide contacts, prevents dopant diffusion and maintains the source/drain extensions in a supersaturated state throughout semiconductor device manufacturing.

    摘要: Deleterious roughness of metal silicide/doped Si interfaces arising during conventional salicide processing for forming shallow-depth source and drain junction regions of MOS transistors and/or CMOS devices is avoided, or at least substantially reduced, by increasing the dopant implantation energy to position the maximum source/drain dopant concentration depth below rather than above the depth to which silicidation reaction occurs, thereby minimizing the concentration of dopant in the metal silicide. The invention enjoys particular utility in forming NiSi layers on As-doped Si substrates.

    摘要: Asymmetric transistors may be formed by creating pocket implants on one source-drain terminal of a transistor and not the other. Asymmetric transistors may also be formed using dual-gate structures having first and second gate conductors of different work functions. Stacked transistors may be formed by stacking two transistors of the same channel type in series. One of the source-drain terminals of each of the two transistors is connected to a common node. The gates of the two transistors are also connected together. The two transistors may have different threshold voltages. The threshold voltage of the transistor that is located higher in the stacked transistor may be provided with a lower threshold voltage than the other transistor in the stacked transistor. Stacked transistors may be used to reduce leakage currents in circuits such as memory cells. Asymmetric transistors may also be used in memory cells to reduce leakage.

    摘要: According to one exemplary embodiment, a FET which is situated over a substrate, comprises a channel situated in the substrate. The FET further comprises a first gate dielectric situated over the channel, where the first gate dielectric has a first coefficient of thermal expansion. The FET further comprises a first gate electrode situated over the first gate dielectric, where the first gate electrode has a second coefficient of thermal expansion, and where the second coefficient of thermal expansion is different than the first coefficient of thermal expansion so as to cause an increase in carrier mobility in the FET. The second coefficient of thermal expansion may be greater that the first coefficient of thermal expansion, for example. The increase in carrier mobility may be caused by, for example, a tensile strain created in the channel.
