An integrated semiconductor structure containing at least one device formed upon a first crystallographic surface that is optimal for that device, while another device is formed upon a second different crystallographic surface that is optimal for the other device is provided. The method of forming the integrated structure includes providing a bonded substrate including at least a first semiconductor layer of a first crystallographic orientation and a second semiconductor layer of a second different crystallographic orientation. A portion of the bonded substrate is protected to define a first device area, while another portion of the bonded substrate is unprotected. The unprotected portion of the bonded substrate is then etched to expose a surface of the second semiconductor layer and a semiconductor material is regrown on the exposed surface. Following planarization, a first semiconductor device is formed in the first device region and a second semiconductor device is formed on the regrown material.

A hybrid substrate having a high-mobility surface for use with planar and/or multiple-gate metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) is provided. The hybrid substrate has a first surface portion that is optimal for n-type devices, and a second surface portion that is optimal for p-type devices. Due to proper surface and wafer flat orientations in each semiconductor layers of the hybrid substrate, all gates of the devices are oriented in the same direction and all channels are located on the high mobility surface. The present invention also provides for a method of fabricating the hybrid substrate as well as a method of integrating at least one planar or multiple-gate MOSFET thereon.

Ultra thin body fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (SOI) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors (MOSFETs) in which the SOI thickness changes with gate-length variations thereby minimizing the threshold voltage variations that are typically caused by SOI thickness and gate-length variations are provided. Such a SOI MOSFET may include a SOI substrate having a SOI layer in which a first portion thereof has a thickness of less than 20 nm; a gate including a gate dielectric and a gate electrode located atop the first portion of the SOI layer having the thickness, the gate electrode having an upper surface and a bottom surface that have the same length or the bottom surface has a length that is greater than the upper surface; and source and drain diffusion regions located in a second portion of the SOI layer that is adjacent to the first portion, and the second portion of the SOI layer is thicker than the first portion.
摘要:
A method of creating ultra tin body fully-depleted SOI MOSFETs in which the SOI thickness changes with gate-length variations thereby minimizing the threshold voltage variations that are typically caused by SOI thickness and gate-length variations is provided. The method of present invention uses a replacement gate process in which nitrogen is implanted to selectively retard oxidation during formation of a recessed channel. A self-limited chemical oxide removal (COR) processing step can be used to improve the control in the recessed channel step. If the channel is doped, the inventive method is designed such that the thickness of the SOI layer is increased with shorter channel length. If the channel is undoped or counter-doped, the inventive method is designed such that the thickness of the SOI layer is decreased with shorter channel length.

Specifically, the integrated semiconductor circuit includes a FinFET and a planar single gated FET located atop a buried insulating layer of an silicon-on-insulator substrate, the planar single gated FET is located on a surface of a patterned top semiconductor layer of the silicon-on-insulator substrate and the FinFET has a vertical channel that is perpendicular to the planar single gated FET. A method of forming a method such an integrated circuit is also provided. In the method, resist imaging and a patterned hard mask are used in trimming the width of the FinFET active device region and subsequent resist imaging and etching are used in thinning the thickness of the FET device area. The trimmed active FinFET device region is formed such that it lies perpendicular to the thinned planar single gated FET device region.
