    摘要: Formation of deep trench capacitors and isolation structures are decoupled by completing the isolation structures prior to etching trenches for capacitors and forming capacitors therein or vice-versa. Such decoupling of the formation of these respective structures allows different materials to be used in the deep trench capacitors and the isolation structures such as use of low permeability or dielectric constant materials and/or low Young's modulus materials in isolation structures to provide reduced AC capacitive coupling across isolation structures and/or relief of stresses associated with use of high dielectric constant materials or metal-insulator-metal (MIM) structures in deep trench capacitors. Such decoupling also allows increased efficiency of use of reaction chambers for the deep trench capacitors and the isolation structures.

    摘要: Replacement gate work function material stacks are provided, which provides a work function about the energy level of the conduction band of silicon. After removal of a disposable gate stack, a gate dielectric layer is formed in a gate cavity. A metallic compound layer including a metal and a non-metal element is deposited directly on the gate dielectric layer. At least one barrier layer and a conductive material layer is deposited and planarized to fill the gate cavity. The metallic compound layer includes a material having a work function about 4.4 eV or less, and can include a material selected from tantalum carbide and a hafnium-silicon alloy. Thus, the metallic compound layer can provide a work function that enhances the performance of an n-type field effect transistor employing a silicon channel.

    摘要: A high dielectric constant (high-k) gate dielectric for a field effect transistor (FET) and a high-k tunnel dielectric for a non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM) device are simultaneously formed on a semiconductor substrate. A stack of at least one conductive material layer, a control gate dielectric layer, and a disposable material layer is subsequently deposited and lithographically patterned. A planarization dielectric layer is deposited and patterned, and disposable material portions are removed. A remaining portion of the control gate dielectric layer is preserved in the NVRAM device region, but is removed in the FET region. A conductive material is deposited in gate cavities to provide a control gate for the NVRAM device and a gate portion for the FET. Alternately, the control gate dielectric layer may replaced with a high-k control gate dielectric in the NVRAM device region.

    摘要: A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes forming a first nanosheet stack and a second nanosheet stack on a semiconductor substrate. The first nanosheet stack includes a plurality of alternating first sacrificial layers and first channel layers. The first sacrificial layers each define a first sacrificial height. The second nanosheet stack includes a plurality of alternating second sacrificial layers and second channel layers. The second sacrificial layers each define a second sacrificial height greater than the first sacrificial height of the first sacrificial layers. The method further includes removing the first and second sacrificial layers respectively from the first and second nanosheet stacks. A metal gate is deposited over the first and second nanosheet stacks to form respective first and second nanosheet transistor structures.
