    Abstract: Methods are presented for fabricating nanowire structures, such as one or more nanowire field effect transistors. The methods include, for instance: providing a substrate and forming a fin above the substrate so that the fin has a first sidewall including one or more elongate first sidewall protrusions and a second sidewall including one or more elongate second sidewall protrusions, with the one or more elongate second sidewall protrusions being substantially aligned with the one or more elongate first sidewall protrusions; and, anisotropically etching the fin with the elongate first sidewall protrusions and the elongate second sidewall protrusions to define the one or more nanowires. The etchant may be chosen to selectively etch along a pre-defined crystallographic plane, such as the (111) crystallographic plane, to form the nanowire structures.

    Abstract: A methodology for forming a single diffusion break structure in a FinFET device involves localized, in situ oxidation of a portion of a semiconductor fin. Fin oxidation within a fin cut region may be preceded by the formation of epitaxial source/drain regions over the fin, as well as by a gate cut module, where portions of a sacrificial gate that straddle the fin are replaced by an isolation layer. Localized oxidation of the fin enables the stress state in adjacent, un-oxidized portions of the fin to be retained, which may beneficially impact carrier mobility and hence conductivity within channel portions of the fin.

    Abstract: A polysilicon layer is deposited over the top surface of the source/drain region of a semiconductor fin in a vertical fin field effect transistor and recrystallized prior to the formation of an epitaxial source/drain region over the source/drain region. The recrystallized silicon material increases the area for deposition of the source/drain region, increasing the available contact area of the source/drain region and correspondingly decreasing the contact resistance thereto. Prior to recrystallization, the polysilicon layer may be made amorphous to improve the quality of the crystalline material for epitaxial growth.
