Abstract: A semiconductor radiation monitor (i.e., dosimeter) is provided that has an oxide charge storage region located on a first side of a semiconductor fin and a functional gate structure located on a second side of the semiconductor fin that is opposite the first side. Charges are created in the oxide charge storage region that is located on the first side of the semiconductor fin and detected on the second side of the semiconductor fin by the functional gate structure. Multiple semiconductor fins in parallel can form a dense and very sensitive semiconductor radiation monitor.

Abstract: A method for forming the semiconductor device that includes forming a gate opening to a channel region of a fin structure; and forming a dielectric layer on the fin structure, in which an upper portion of the fin structure is exposed. A metal is formed within the gate opening. The portions of the metal directly contacting the upper surface of fin structure provide a body contact. The combination of the metal within the gate opening to the channel region of the fin structure and the dielectric layer provide a functional gate structure to the semiconductor device.

Abstract: The dosimeter has two vertical field effect transistors (VFETs), each VFET with a bottom and top source/drain and channel between them. An implanted charge storage region material lies between and in contact with each of the vertical channels. A trapped charge is within the implanted charge storage region. The amount of the trapped charge is related to an amount of radiation that passes through the implanted charge storage region.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a fin on a semiconductor substrate, and forming a bottom source/drain region adjacent a base of the fin. In the method, a dielectric layer, a work function metal layer and a first gate metal layer are sequentially deposited on the bottom source/drain region and around the fin. The dielectric layer, the work function metal layer and the first gate metal layer form a gate structure. The method also includes removing the dielectric layer, the work function metal layer and the first gate metal layer from an end portion of the fin, and depositing a second gate metal layer around the end portion of fin in place of the removed dielectric layer, the removed work function metal layer and the removed first gate metal layer. The second gate metal layer contacts the end portion of the fin.
