A method of forming a semiconductor device is presented. A substrate prepared with a second gate is provided. The second gate is processed to form a second gate with a rounded corner and a first gate is formed on the substrate. The first gate is adjacent to and overlaps a portion of the second gate and the rounded corner.

A method of fabricating a semiconductor substrate includes forming a buffer layer on the substrate. A Ge containing layer, such as a SiGe is formed over the buffer layer. The buffer layer includes defects at the interface of the substrate and buffer layer. The substrate is oxidized to transform the buffer layer to a buried oxide layer.
摘要:
In an non-limiting example, we provide a substrate having a cell region, and non-cell regions. We form a tunneling dielectric layer, a charge storing layer, a top insulating layer (e.g., ONO), over the substrate. Then we form a conductive pad layer over the top insulating layer. We form isolation trenches in the pad layer, the charge storing layer and the tunneling dielectric layer and into the substrate. We form isolation regions in the isolation trenches. We remove the pad layer, charge storing layer and the tunneling dielectric layer in the non-cell regions. We form a gate layer over the pad layer and the substrate surface. We complete to form the memory (e.g., SONOS) device in the cell region and other devices in the non-cell regions of the substrate.
摘要:
A method for forming a semiconductor structure having devices formed on both sides. A first substrate and a second substrate are provided. The first substrate is preferably comprised of Ge. The second substrate is preferably comprised of silicon. We form a first dielectric layer over the first substrate. We form a first insulating layer over the second substrate. We bond the first dielectric layer and the first dielectric layer to form a first structure. The first structure comprised of the first substrate, an insulation layer (combined first dielectric and first insulating layers) and the second substrate. We reduce the thickness of the first substrate. We form via plugs through the first substrate and the insulation layer and at least partially through the second substrate. We form first active devices on the surface of the first substrate. We form a first capping layer over the first active devices and the first substrate. We reduce the thickness of the second substrate to expose the via plugs. We form second active devices on the second substrate.
摘要:
A method of forming a relaxed silicon—germanium layer for use as an underlying layer for a subsequent overlying tensile strain silicon layer, has been developed. The method features initial growth of a underlying first silicon—germanium layer on a semiconductor substrate, compositionally graded to feature the largest germanium content at the interface of the first silicon—germanium layer and the semiconductor substrate, with the level of germanium decreasing as the growth of the graded first silicon—germanium layer progresses. This growth sequence allows the largest lattice mismatch and greatest level of threading dislocations to be present at the bottom of the graded silicon—germanium layer, with the magnitude of lattice mismatch and threading dislocations decreasing as the growth of the graded silicon—germanium layer progresses. In situ growth of an overlying silicon—germanium layer featuring uniform or non—graded germanium content, results in a relaxed silicon—germanium layer with a minimum of dislocations propagating from the underlying graded silicon—germanium layer. In situ growth of a silicon layer results in a tensile strain, low defect density layer to be used for MOSFET device applications.

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes the steps of forming a refractory metal film on a semiconductor substrate, forming a capping film on the refractory metal film, injecting IV group atoms into the capping film to knock atoms of the capping film into the refractory metal film, and forming a metal silicide film at an interface between the semiconductor substrate and the refractory metal film.
