Abstract:
Devices and methods for a high voltage FinFET with a shaped drift region include a lateral diffusion metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) FinFET having a substrate with a top surface and a fin attached to the top surface. The fin includes a source region having a first type of doping, an undoped gate-control region adjacent the source region, a drift region adjacent the undoped gate-control region opposite the source region, and a drain region. The amount of doping of the source region is greater than the amount of doping in the drift region. The drain region is adjacent to the drift region and has the same type of doping. The fin is tapered in the drift region, being wider closest to the undoped gate-control region and thinner closest to the drain region. A gate stack is attached to the top surface of the substrate and located with the undoped gate-control region.
Abstract:
A source/drain epitaxial electrical monitor and methods of characterizing epitaxial growth through capacitance measurements are provided. The structure includes a plurality of fin structures; one or more gate structures, perpendicular to and intersecting the plurality of fin structures. The structure further includes a first connection by a first contact at one fin-end of every other fin structure of the plurality of fin structures, and a second connection by a second contact at one end of an alternate fin structure of the plurality of fin structures.
