Trench-confined selective epitaxial growth process in which epitaxial growth of a semiconductor device layer proceeds within the confines of a trench. In embodiments, a trench is fabricated to include a pristine, planar semiconductor seeding surface disposed at the bottom of the trench. Semiconductor regions around the seeding surface may be recessed relative to the seeding surface with Isolation dielectric disposed there on to surround the semiconductor seeding layer and form the trench. In embodiments to form the trench, a sacrificial hardmask fin may be covered in dielectric which is then planarized to expose the hardmask fin, which is then removed to expose the seeding surface. A semiconductor device layer is formed from the seeding surface through selective heteroepitaxy. In embodiments, non-planar devices are formed from the semiconductor device layer by recessing a top surface of the isolation dielectric. In embodiments, non-planar devices CMOS devices having high carrier mobility may be made from the semiconductor device layer.

Embodiments herein describe techniques for a thin-film transistor (TFT), which may include a substrate and a transistor above the substrate. The transistor includes a channel layer above the substrate, a gate dielectric layer adjacent to the channel layer, and a gate electrode separated from the channel layer by the gate dielectric layer. The gate dielectric layer includes a non-linear gate dielectric material. The gate electrode, the channel layer, and the gate dielectric layer form a non-linear capacitor. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A surface channel transistor is provided in a semiconductive device. The surface channel transistor is either a PMOS or an NMOS device. Epitaxial layers are disposed above the surface channel transistor to cause an increased bandgap phenomenon nearer the surface of the device. A process of forming the surface channel transistor includes grading the epitaxial layers.

Semiconductor device stacks and devices made there from having Ge-rich device layers. A Ge-rich device layer is disposed above a substrate, with a p-type doped Ge etch suppression layer (e.g., p-type SiGe) disposed there between to suppress etch of the Ge-rich device layer during removal of a sacrificial semiconductor layer richer in Si than the device layer. Rates of dissolution of Ge in wet etchants, such as aqueous hydroxide chemistries, may be dramatically decreased with the introduction of a buried p-type doped semiconductor layer into a semiconductor film stack, improving selectivity of etchant to the Ge-rich device layers.
摘要:
A high-k gate dielectric interface with a group III-V semiconductor surface of a non-planar transistor channel region is non-directionally doped with nitrogen. In nanowire embodiments, a non-directional nitrogen doping of a high-k gate dielectric interface is performed before or concurrently with a conformal gate electrode deposition through exposure of the gate dielectric to liquid, vapor, gaseous, plasma, or solid state sources of nitrogen. In embodiments, a gate electrode metal is conformally deposited over the gate dielectric and an anneal is performed to uniformly accumulate nitrogen within the gate dielectric along the non-planar III-V semiconductor interface.

Embodiments include high electron mobility transistors (HEMT). In embodiments, a gate electrode is spaced apart by different distances from a source and drain semiconductor region to provide high breakdown voltage and low on-state resistance. In embodiments, self-alignment techniques are applied to form a dielectric liner in trenches and over an intervening mandrel to independently define a gate length, gate-source length, and gate-drain length with a single masking operation. In embodiments, III-N HEMTs include fluorine doped semiconductor barrier layers for threshold voltage tuning and/or enhancement mode operation.

摘要:
Embodiments of the present disclosure describe multi-device flexible systems on a chip (SOCs) and methods for making such SOCs. A multi-material stack may be processed sequentially to form multiple integrated circuit (IC) devices in a single flexible SOC. By forming the IC devices from a single stack, it is possible to form contacts for multiple devices through a single metallization process and for those contacts to be located in a common back-plane of the SOC. Stack layers may be ordered and processed according to processing temperature, such that higher temperature processes are performed earlier. In this manner, intervening layers of the stack may shield some stack layers from elevated processing temperatures associated with processing upper layers of the stack. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
