摘要:
Methods of forming field effect transistors (FETs) having fin-shaped active regions include patterning a semiconductor substrate to define a fin-shaped semiconductor active region therein, which is surrounded by a trench. At least an upper portion of the fin-shaped semiconductor active region is covered with a sacrificial layer. This sacrificial layer is selectively etched-back to define sacrificial spacers on sidewalls of the fin-shaped semiconductor active region. The electrically insulating region is formed on the sacrificial spacers. The sacrificial spacers are then removed by selectively etching the sacrificial spacers using the electrically insulating region as an etching mask. An insulated gate electrode is then formed on the sidewalls of the fin-shaped semiconductor active region.

In an exemplary embodiment, a fin active region is protruded along one direction from a bulk silicon substrate on which a shallow trench insulator is entirely formed so as to cover the fin active region. The shallow trench insulator is removed to selectively expose an upper part and sidewall of the fin active region, along a line shape that at least one time crosses with the fin active region, thus forming a trench. The fin active region is exposed by the trench and thereon a gate insulation layer is formed. Thereby, productivity is increased and performance of the device is improved. A fin FET employs a bulk silicon substrate of which a manufacturing cost is lower than that of a conventional SOI type silicon substrate. Also, a floating body effect can be prevented, or is substantially reduced.

A semiconductor device may include a fin structure having source/drain regions and channel fins connected between source/drain patterns. A gate insulation layer may be provided on the channel fins. A gate electrode may include lower gate patterns and an upper gate pattern. The lower gate patterns may extend in a vertical direction and contact the gate insulation layer. The upper gate pattern may extend in a second horizontal direction substantially perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. The upper gate pattern may be connected to upper portions of the lower gate patterns.

According to some embodiments of the invention, a fin type transistor includes an active structure integrally formed with a silicon substrate. The active structure includes grooves that form blocking regions under source/drain regions. A gate structure is formed to cross the upper face of the active structure and to cover the exposed side surfaces of the lateral portions of the active structure. An effective channel length of a fin type transistor may be sufficiently ensured so that a short channel effect of the transistor may be prevented and the fin type transistor may have a high breakdown voltage.

In one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate having a lower layer and an upper layer overlying the lower layer. The upper layer is arranged and structured to form first and second active regions that are spaced apart from each other and protrude from an upper surface of the lower layer. A third active region of a bridge shape is distanced vertically from the upper surface of the lower layer and connects the first and second active regions. The device further includes a gate electrode, which is formed with a gate insulation layer surrounding the third active region, so that the third active region functions as a channel.
