摘要: A device having co-integrated wimpy and nominal transistors includes first source/drain regions formed with a semiconductor alloy imparting strain into a first channel region. The device also has wimpy transistors including second source/drain regions formed with the semiconductor alloy that has been decomposed to include a larger amount of an electrically active atomic element than contained in the semiconductor alloy of the first source/drain region.

摘要: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method and resulting structures for a steep-switch vertical field effect transistor (SS-VFET). In a non-limiting embodiment of the invention, a semiconductor fin is formed vertically extending from a bottom source or drain region of a substrate. A top source or drain region is formed on a surface of the semiconductor fin and a top metallization layer is formed on the top source or drain region. A bi-stable resistive system is formed on the top metallization layer. The bi-stable resistive system includes an insulator-to-metal transition material or a threshold-switching selector. The SS-VFET provides a subthreshold switching slope of less than 60 millivolts per decade.

摘要: A method of forming a finFET transistor device includes forming a crystalline, compressive strained silicon germanium (cSiGe) layer over a substrate; masking a first region of the cSiGe layer so as to expose a second region of the cSiGe layer; subjecting the exposed second region of the cSiGe layer to an implant process so as to amorphize a bottom portion thereof and transform the cSiGe layer in the second region to a relaxed SiGe (rSiGe) layer; performing an annealing process so as to recrystallize the rSiGe layer; epitaxially growing a tensile strained silicon layer on the rSiGe layer; and patterning fin structures in the tensile strained silicon layer and in the first region of the cSiGe layer.

摘要: Embodiments are directed to a method and resulting structures for forming a semiconductor device having a vertically integrated nanosheet fuse. A nanosheet stack is formed on a substrate. The nanosheet stack includes a semiconductor layer formed between an upper nanosheet and a lower nanosheet. The semiconductor layer is modified such that an etch rate of the modified semiconductor layer is greater than an etch rate of the upper and lower nanosheets when exposed to an etchant. Portions of the modified semiconductor layer are removed to form a cavity between the upper and lower nanosheets and a silicide region is formed in the upper nanosheet.

摘要: Semiconductor devices and methods of making the same include forming a stack of alternating layers of channel material and sacrificial material. The sacrificial material is etched away to free the layers of channel material. A gate stack is formed around the layers of channel material. At least one layer of channel material is deactivated. Source and drain regions are formed in contact with the at least one layer of active channel material.

摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor device that includes forming a strain relaxed buffer (SRB) layer atop a supporting substrate, and epitaxially forming a tensile semiconductor material atop a first portion of the strain relaxed buffer layer (SRB) layer. A second portion of the SRB layer is then removed, and a semiconductor material including a base material of silicon and phosphorus is formed atop a surface of the supporting substrate exposed by removing the second portion of the SRB layer. A compressive semiconductor material is epitaxially forming atop the semiconductor material including the base material of silicon and phosphorus. Compressive FinFET structures can then be formed from the compressive semiconductor material and tensile FinFET structures can then be formed from the tensile semiconductor material.

摘要: A starting structure for forming a gate-all-around field effect transistor (FET) and a method of fabricating the gate-all-around FET. The method includes forming a stack of silicon nanosheets above a substrateforming an interfacial layer over the nanosheets depositing a high-k dielectric layer conformally on the interfacial layer. The method also includes depositing a layer of silicon nitride (SiN) above the high-k dielectric layer and performing reliability anneal after depositing the layer of SiN to crystallize the high-k dielectric layer.
