    摘要: The present invention relates to an FET device having a conductive gate electrode with angled sidewalls. Specifically, the sidewalls of the FET device are offset from the vertical direction by an offset angle that is greater than about 0° and not more than about 45°. In such a manner, such conductive gate electrode has a top surface area that is smaller than its base surface area. Preferably, the FET device further comprises source/drain metal contacts that are also characterized by angled sidewalls, except that the offset angle of the source/drain metal contacts are arranged so that the top surface area of each metal contact is larger than its base surface area. The FET device of the present invention has significantly reduced gate to drain metal contact overlap capacitance, e.g., less than about 0.07 femtoFarads per micron of channel width, in comparison with conventional FET devices having straight-wall gate electrodes and metal contacts.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor device includes patterning a photoresist layer formed over a homogeneous semiconductor device layer to be etched; subjecting the semiconductor device to an implant process that selectively implants a sacrificial etch stop layer that is self-aligned in accordance with locations of features to be etched within the homogeneous semiconductor device layer, and at a desired depth for the features to be etched; etching a feature pattern defined by the patterned photoresist layer into the homogenous semiconductor device layer, stopping on the implanted sacrificial etch stop layer; and removing remaining portion of the implanted sacrificial etch stop layer prior to filling the etched feature pattern with a fill material.
