    摘要: A sub-0.05 &mgr;m channel length fully-depleted SOI MOSFET device having low source and drain resistance and minimal overlap capacitance and a method of fabricating the same are provided. In accordance with the method of the present invention, at least one dummy gate region is first formed atop an SOI layer. The dummy gate region includes at least a sacrificial polysilicon region and first nitride spacers located on sidewalls of the sacrificial polysilicon region. Next, an oxide layer that is coplanar with an upper surface of the dummy gate region is formed and then the sacrificial polysilicon region is removed to expose a portion of the SOI layer. A thinned device channel region is formed in the exposed portion of the SOI layer and thereafter inner nitride spacers are formed on exposed walls of the fist nitride spacers. Next, a gate region is formed over the thinned device channel region and then the oxide layer is removed so as to expose thicker portions of the SOI layer than de device channel region.

In the present invention, self-aligned isolation regions are provided to reduce the parasitic capacitance in the DGFET structure. Additionally, the present invention encapsulates the silicon-containing channel layer to enable the back-gate to be oxidized to a greater extent thereby reducing the parasitic capacitance of the structure even further.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method using a damascene-gate process to improve the transport properties of FETs through strain Si. Changes in mobility and FET characteristics are deliberately made in a Si or silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure through the introduction of local strain in the channel region, without introducing strain in the device source and drain regions. The method has the advantage of not straining the source and drain regions resulting in very low leakage junctions and also it does not require any special substrate preparation like the case of a strained Si/relaxed SiGe system. Moreover, the method is compatible with existing mainstream CMOS processing. The present invention also provides a CMOS device that has a localized strained Si channel that is formed using the method of the present invention.

    摘要: The present invention provides semiconductor structures and a method of fabricating such structures for application of MOSFET devices. The semiconductor structures are fabricated in such a way so that the layer structure in the regions of the wafer where n-MOSFETs are fabricated is different from the layer structure in regions of the wafers where p-MOSFETs are fabricated. The structures are fabricated by first forming a damaged region with a surface of a Si-containing substrate by ion implanting of a light atom such as He. A strained SiGe alloy is then formed on the Si-containing substrate containing the damaged region. An annealing step is then employed to cause substantial relaxation of the strained SiGe alloy via a defect initiated strain relaxation. Next, a strained semiconductor cap such as strained Si is formed on the relaxed SiGe alloy.

    摘要: A semiconductor structure for use as a template for forming high-performance metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) devices is provided. More specifically, the present invention provides a structure that includes a SiGe-on-insulator substrate including a tensile-strained SiGe alloy layer located atop an insulating layer; and a strained Si layer atop the tensile-strained SiGe alloy layer. The present invention also provides a method of forming the tensile-strained SGOI substrate as well as the heterostructure described above. The method of the present invention decouples the preference for high strain in the strained Si layer and the Ge content in the underlying layer by providing a tensile-strained SiGe alloy layer directly atop on an insulating layer.
