    Abstract: A FinFET has a structure including a semiconductor substrate, semiconductor fins and a gate spanning the fins. The fins each have a bottom region coupled to the substrate and a top active region. Between the bottom and top fin regions is a middle stack situated between a vertically elongated source and a vertically elongated drain. The stack includes a top channel region and a dielectric region immediately below the channel region, providing electrical isolation of the channel. The partial isolation structure can be used with both gate first and gate last fabrication processes.

    Abstract: Reducing a chance of punch-through in a FinFET structure includes providing a substrate, creating a blanket layer of semiconductor material with impurities therein over the substrate, masking a portion of the blanket layer, creating epitaxial semiconductor material on an unmasked portion of the structure, removing the mask, and etching the structure to create n-type raised structure(s) and p-type raised structure(s), a bottom portion of the raised structure(s) being surrounded by isolation material. A middle portion of the raised structure(s) includes a semiconductor material with impurities therein, the middle portion extending across the raised structure(s), and a top portion including a semiconductor material lacking added impurities.

    Abstract: Methods for fabricating transistor structures are provided, the methods including: forming a fin structure with an upper fin portion and a lower fin portion, the upper fin portion including a sacrificial material; forming a gate structure over the fin; selectively removing the upper fin portion to form a tunnel between the gate structure and lower fin portion; and providing a channel material in the tunnel to define the channel region of the gate structure. The sacrificial material may be a material that can be selectively etched without etching the material of the lower fin portion. The channel material may further be provided to form source and drain regions of the transistor structure, which may result in a junctionless FinFET structure.

    Abstract: A semiconductor stack of a FinFET in fabrication includes a bulk silicon substrate, a selectively oxidizable sacrificial layer over the bulk substrate and an active silicon layer over the sacrificial layer. Fins are etched out of the stack of active layer, sacrificial layer and bulk silicon. A conformal oxide deposition is made to encapsulate the fins, for example, using a HARP deposition. Relying on the sacrificial layer having a comparatively much higher oxidation rate than the active layer or substrate, selective oxidization of the sacrificial layer is performed, for example, by annealing. The presence of the conformal oxide provides structural stability to the fins, and prevents fin tilting, during oxidation. Selective oxidation of the sacrificial layer provides electrical isolation of the top active silicon layer from the bulk silicon portion of the fin, resulting in an SOI-like structure. Further fabrication may then proceed to convert the active layer to the source, drain and channel of the FinFET. The oxidized sacrificial layer under the active channel prevents punch-through leakage in the final FinFET structure.
