摘要: At least one method, apparatus and system are provided for forming a hybrid oxide layer for providing for a first region of a finFET device to operate at a first voltage and a second region of the finFET to operate at a second voltage. A first set of fins are formed on an I/O device portion, and a second set of fins are formed on a core device portion of a substrate. A first and a second oxide layers are deposited on the first and second set of fins, wherein they merge to form a hybrid oxide layer. The thickness of the second oxide layer is based on a first operating voltage for the I/O device portion. The hybrid layer is removed from the core device portion such that the I/O device portion operates at the first voltage and the core device portion operates at a second voltage.

摘要: A gate dielectric can be formed by depositing a first silicon oxide material by a first atomic layer deposition process. The thickness of the first silicon oxide material is selected to correspond to at least 10 deposition cycles of the first atomic layer deposition process. The first silicon oxide material is converted into a first silicon oxynitride material by a first plasma nitridation process. A second silicon oxide material is subsequently deposited by a second atomic layer deposition process. The second silicon oxide material is converted into a second silicon oxynitride material by a second plasma nitridation process. Multiple repetitions of the atomic layer deposition process and the plasma nitridation process provides a silicon oxynitride material having a ratio of nitrogen atoms to oxygen atoms greater than 1/3, which can be advantageously employed to reduce the leakage current through a gate dielectric.
