An exemplary method for fabricating an integrated circuit having a split-gate nonvolatile memory device includes forming a charge storage structure overlying a semiconductor substrate and having a first sidewall and a second sidewall and forming an interior cavity. The method forms a control gate in the interior cavity. Further, the method forms a first select gate overlying the semiconductor substrate and adjacent the first sidewall. A first memory cell is formed by the control gate and the first select gate. The method also forms a second select gate overlying the semiconductor substrate and adjacent the second sidewall. A second memory cell is formed by the control gate and the second select gate.

    Abstract: A method (and semiconductor device) of fabricating a semiconductor device provides a filed effect transistor (FET) with reduced contact resistance (and series resistance) for improved device performance. An impurity is implanted in the source/drain (S/D) regions after contact silicide formation and a spike anneal process is performed that lowers the schottky barrier height (SBH) of the interface between the silicide and the lower junction region of the S/D regions. This results in lower contact resistance and reduces the thickness (and Rs) of the region at the silicide-semiconductor interface.

    Abstract: Transistor devices having an anti-fuse configuration and methods of forming the transistor devices are provided. An exemplary transistor device includes a semiconductor substrate including a first fin. A first insulator layer overlies the semiconductor substrate and has a thickness less than a height of the first fin. The first fin extends through and protrudes beyond the first insulator layer to provide a buried fin portion and an exposed fin portion. A gate electrode structure overlies the exposed fin portion. A gate insulating structure is disposed between the first fin and the gate electrode structure. The gate insulating structure includes a first dielectric layer overlying a first surface of the first fin. The gate insulating structure further includes a second dielectric layer overlying a second surface of the first fin. A potential breakdown path is defined between the first fin and the gate electrode structure through the first dielectric layer.

    Abstract: A method (and semiconductor device) of fabricating a semiconductor device adjusts gate threshold (Vt) of a field effect transistor (FET) with raised source/drain (S/D) regions. A halo region is formed in a two-step process that includes implanting dopants using conventional implantation techniques and implanting dopants at a specific twist angle. The dopant concentration in the halo region near the active edge of the raised S/D regions is higher and extends deeper than the dopant concentration within the interior region of the raised S/D regions. As a result, Vt near the active edge region is adjusted and different from the Vt at the active center regions, thereby achieving same or similar Vt for a FET with different width.
