Abstract:
A method for forming a fin transistor in a bulk substrate includes forming a super steep retrograde well (SSRW) on a bulk substrate. The well includes a doped portion of a first conductivity type dopant formed below an undoped layer. A fin material is grown over the undoped layer. A fin structure is formed from the fin material, and the fin material is undoped or doped. Source and drain regions are provided adjacent to the fin structure to form a fin field effect transistor.
Abstract:
Field effect transistors fabricated using atomic layer doping processes are disclosed. In accordance with an embodiment of an atomic layer doping method, a semiconducting surface and a dopant gas mixture are prepared. Further, a dopant layer is grown on the semiconducting surface by applying the dopant gas mixture to the semiconducting surface under a pressure that is less than 500 Torr and a temperature that is between 300° C. and 750° C. The dopant layer includes at least 4×1020 active dopant atoms per cm3 that react with atoms on the semiconducting surface such that the reacted atoms increase the conductivity of the semiconducting surface.
Abstract:
A thin body field effect transistor (FET) nanopore sensor includes a silicon on insulator (SOI) structure having an annular shape and comprising a source, a drain and a thin body channel interposed therebetween. A nanopore is formed in a central opening of the SOI structure. A gate dielectric is disposed on the SOI structure insulating the SOI structure from a liquid gate within the nanopore. A back gate is formed around the SOI structure. A shallow trench isolation (STI) layer is formed between the SOI structure and the back gate.
