    摘要: Structures for field effect-transistors and methods of forming field-effect transistors. A gate structure includes a gate electrode and a gate dielectric layer that are arranged between a first sidewall spacer and a second sidewall spacer. The gate structure has a top surface that is recessed relative to the first and second sidewall spacers. A gate cap is arranged over a section of the gate structure and over the first and sidewall spacers. The gate cap has a first section of a first width arranged over the section of the gate structure and a second section of a second width arranged over the section of the gate cap, the first sidewall spacer, and the second sidewall spacer. A dielectric liner is arranged between the gate cap and the gate structure, between the gate cap and the first sidewall spacer, and between the gate cap and the second sidewall spacer.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to interconnect structures with reduced capacitance and methods of manufacture. The method includes: forming one or more lower metal lines in a dielectric material; forming an airgap structure in an upper dielectric material above the one or more lower metal lines, by subjecting material to a curing process; and forming an upper metal structure above the airgap structure.

    摘要: One illustrative device disclosed herein includes, among other things, a fin defined on a substrate. A gate electrode structure is positioned above the fin in a channel region. A source/drain region is defined in the fin. The source/drain region includes a first epitaxial semiconductor material. The first epitaxial semiconductor material includes a dopant species having a first concentration. A diffusion blocking layer is positioned above the first epitaxial semiconductor material. A second epitaxial semiconductor material is positioned above the diffusion blocking layer. The second epitaxial semiconductor material includes the dopant species having a second concentration greater than the first concentration.

    摘要: P-type metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (pMOSFET's), semiconductor devices comprising the pMOSFET's, and methods of forming pMOSFET's are provided. The pMOSFET's include a silicon-germanium (SiGe) film that has a lower interface in contact with a semiconductor substrate and an upper surface, and the SiGe film has a graded boron doping profile where boron content increases upwardly over a majority of the width of boron-doped SiGe film between the lower interface of the SiGe film and the upper surface of the SiGe film. Methods of forming the pMOSFET's include: providing a semiconductor substrate; depositing a SiGe film on the semiconductor substrate, thereby forming a lower interface of the SiGe film in contact with the semiconductor substrate, and an upper surface of the SiGe film; and doping the SiGe film with boron to form a SiGe film having a graded boron doping profile where boron content increases upwardly over a majority of the width of boron-doped SiGe film between the lower interface of the SiGe film and the upper surface of the SiGe film.
