摘要:
A semiconductor structure comprises a semiconductor substrate, an N-type stacked nanosheet channel structure formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a P-type stacked nanosheet channel structure formed adjacent to the N-type stacked nanosheet channel structure on the semiconductor substrate. Each of the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures comprises a plurality of stacked channel regions with each such channel region being substantially surrounded by a gate dielectric layer and a gate work function metal layer, and with the gate work function metal layer being separated from the channel regions by the gate dielectric layer. The gate dielectric and gate work function metal layers of the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures are substantially eliminated from a shared gate region between the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures.
摘要:
A double diffusion break (DDB) gate structure is provided by removing the vestigial antenna to provide a space and the space is filled, at least in part, with an interlevel dielectric (ILD) material. Removal of the vestigial antenna from the DDB gate structure will reduce the device capacitance and improve device performance, while enabling DDB in tight integration schemes.

A method for forming a semiconductor device comprises forming a first fin and a second fin on a semiconductor substrate, forming a sacrificial gate stack over a channel region of the first fin and the second fin, depositing a layer of spacer material over the first fin and the second fin, depositing a layer of dielectric material over the layer of spacer material, removing a portion of the dielectric material to form a first cavity that exposes a portion of the first fin, epitaxially growing a first semiconductor material on the exposed portion of the first fin to form a source/drain region on the first fin, depositing a protective layer on the source/drain region on the first fin, removing a portion of the dielectric material to form a second cavity that exposes a portion of the second fin, and epitaxially growing a source/drain region on the second fin.

A non-planar semiconductor transistor device includes a substrate layer. Conductive channels extend between corresponding source and drain electrodes. A gate stack extending in a direction perpendicular to the conductive channels crosses over the plurality of conductive channels. The gate stack includes a dielectric layer running along the substrate and the plurality of conductive channels and arranged with a substantially uniform layer thickness, a work-function electrode layer covers the dielectric layer and is arranged with a substantially uniform layer thickness, and a metal layer, distinct from the work-function electrode layer, covers the work-function electrode layer and is arranged with a substantially uniform height with respect to the substrate such that the metal layer fills a gap between proximate conductive channels of the plurality of conductive channels.

A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes forming first and second stacked nanosheet channel structures on a semiconductor substrate, with each nanosheet channel structure including a plurality of stacked channel regions interspersed with sacrificial regions. In a resulting semiconductor structure, an N-type stacked nanosheet channel structure is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and a P-type stacked nanosheet channel structure is formed adjacent to the N-type stacked nanosheet channel structure on the semiconductor substrate. Each of the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures includes a plurality of stacked channel regions with each such channel region being substantially surrounded by a gate dielectric layer and a gate work function metal layer. The gate dielectric and gate work function metal layers of the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures are substantially eliminated from a shared gate region between the adjacent N-type and P-type stacked nanosheet channel structures.
