    摘要: Silicon on insulator (SOI) field effect transistors (FET) with a shared body contact, a SRAM cell and array including the SOI FETs and the method of forming the SOI FETs. The SRAM cell has a hybrid SOI/bulk structure wherein the source/drain diffusions do not penetrate to the underlying insulator layer, resulting in a FET in the surface of an SOI layer with a body or substrate contact formed at a shared contact. FETs are formed on SOI silicon islands located on a BOX layer and isolated by shallow trench isolation (STI). NFET islands in the SRAM cells include a body contact to a P-type diffusion in the NFET island. Each NFET in the SRAM cells include at least one shallow source/drain diffusion that is shallower than the island thickness. A path remains under the shallow diffusions between NFET channels and the body contact. The P-type body contact diffusion is a deep diffusion, the full thickness of the island. Bit line diffusions shared by SRAM cells on adjacent wordlines may be deep diffusions.

    摘要: A method for modulating the stress caused by bird beak formation of small width devices by a nitrogen plasma treatment. The nitrogen plasma process forms a nitride liner about the trench walls that serves to prevent the formation of bird beaks in the isolation region during a subsequent oxidation step. In one embodiment, the plasma nitridation process occurs after trench etching, but prior to trench fill. In yet another embodiment, the plasma nitridation process occurs after trench fill. In yet another embodiment, a block mask is formed over predetermined active areas of the etched substrate prior to the plasma nitridation process. This embodiment is used in protecting the PFET device area from the plasma nitridation process thereby providing a means to form a PFET device area in which stress caused by bird beak formation increases the device performance of the PFET.

    摘要: A semiconductor chip includes a semiconductor substrate having a rectifying contact diffusion and a non-rectifying contact diffusion. A halo diffusion is adjacent the rectifying contact diffusion and no halo diffusion is adjacent the non-rectifying contact diffusion. The rectifying contact diffusion can be a source/drain diffusion of an FET to improve resistance to punch-through. The non-rectifying contact diffusion may be an FET body contact, a lateral diode contact, or a resistor or capacitor contact. Avoiding a halo for non-rectifying contacts reduces series resistance and improves device characteristics. In another embodiment on a chip having devices with halos adjacent diffusions, no halo diffusion is adjacent a rectifying contact diffusion of a lateral diode, significantly improving ideality of the diode and increasing breakdown voltage.
