摘要:
A transistor structure includes a channel located in an extremely thin silicon on insulator (ETSOI) layer and disposed between a raised source and a raised drain, a gate structure having a gate conductor disposed over the channel and between the source and the drain, and a gate spacer layer disposed over the gate conductor. The raised source and the raised drain each have a facet that is upwardly sloping away from the gate structure. A lower portion of the source and a lower portion of the drain are separated from the channel by an extension region containing a dopant species diffused from a dopant-containing glass.

A thin BOX ETSOI device with robust isolation and method of manufacturing. The method includes providing a wafer with at least a pad layer overlying a first semiconductor layer overlying an oxide layer overlying a second semiconductor layer, wherein the first semiconductor layer has a thickness of 10 nm or less. The process continues with etching a shallow trench into the wafer, extending partially into the second semiconductor layer and forming first spacers on the sidewalls of said shallow trench. After spacer formation, the process continues by etching an area directly below and between the first spacers, exposing the underside of the first spacers, forming second spacers covering all exposed portions of the first spacers, wherein the pad oxide layer is removed, and forming a gate structure over the first semiconductor wafer.

A method of creating a semiconductor integrated circuit is disclosed. The method includes forming a first field effect transistor (FET) device and a second FET device on a semiconductor substrate. The method includes epitaxially growing raised source/drain (RSD) structures for the first FET device at a first height. The method includes epitaxially growing raised source/drain (RSD) structures for the second FET device at a second height. The second height is greater than the first height such that a threshold voltage of the second FET device is greater than a threshold voltage of the first FET device.
摘要:
A method to achieve multiple threshold voltage (Vt) devices on the same semiconductor chip is disclosed. The method provides different threshold voltage devices using threshold voltage adjusting materials and a subsequent drive in anneal instead of directly doping the channel. As such, the method of the present disclosure avoids short channel penalties. Additionally, no ground plane/back gates are utilized in the present application thereby the method of the present disclosure can be easily integrated into current complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) processing technology.

A method of making a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) semiconductor device includes etching an undercut isolation trench into an SOI substrate, the SOI substrate comprising a bottom substrate, a buried oxide (BOX) layer formed on the bottom substrate, and a top SOI layer formed on the BOX layer, wherein the undercut isolation trench extends through the top SOI layer and the BOX layer and into the bottom substrate such that a portion of the undercut isolation trench is located in the bottom substrate underneath the BOX layer. The undercut isolation trench is filled with an undercut fill comprising an insulating material to form an undercut isolation region. A field effect transistor (FET) device is formed on the top SOI layer adjacent to the undercut isolation region, wherein the undercut isolation region extends underneath a source/drain region of the FET.

Shallow trench isolation structures are provided for use with UTBB (ultra-thin body and buried oxide) semiconductor substrates, which prevent defect mechanisms from occurring, such as the formation of electrical shorts between exposed portions of silicon layers on the sidewalls of shallow trench of a UTBB substrate, in instances when trench fill material of the shallow trench is subsequently etched away and recessed below an upper surface of the UTBB substrate.

摘要:
A common cut mask is employed to define a gate pattern and a local interconnect pattern so that local interconnect structures and gate structures are formed with zero overlay variation relative to one another. A local interconnect structure may be laterally spaced from a gate structure in a first horizontal direction, and contact another gate structure in a second horizontal direction that is different from the first horizontal direction. Further, a gate structure may be formed to be collinear with a local interconnect structure that adjoins the gate structure. The local interconnect structures and the gate structures are formed by a common damascene processing step so that the top surfaces of the gate structures and the local interconnect structures are coplanar with each other.

Transistor devices and methods of their fabrication are disclosed. In one method, a dummy gate structure is formed on a substrate. Bottom portions of the dummy gate structure are undercut. In addition, stair-shaped, raised source and drain regions are formed on the substrate and within at least one undercut formed by the undercutting. The dummy gate structure is removed and a replacement gate is formed on the substrate.
