    摘要: A novel methodology for the construction and operation of logical circuits and gates that make use of and contact to a fourth terminal (substrates/bodies) of MOSFET devices is described in detail. The novel construction and operation provides for maintaining such body-contacted MOSFET devices at a lower threshold voltage (VTh) when actively on (to increase overdrive and performance), and at a higher relative threshold voltage when off (to reduce leakage power). Because the threshold potential of a gate moves inversely to its body potential, it follows then that in general, the body of a given device must be tied to the inverse of the device's drain voltage to achieve such a desirable threshold potential modulation effect for improved device, circuit, gate and logical family operation.

    摘要: A method is provided for fabricating a finFET device. Fin structures are formed over a BOX layer. The fin structures include a semiconductor layer and extend in a first direction. A gate stack is formed on the BOX layer over the fin structures and extending in a second direction. The gate stack includes a high-K dielectric layer and a metal gate. Gate spacers are formed on sidewalls of the gate stack, and an epi layer is deposited to merge the fin structures. Ions are implanted to form source and drain regions, and dummy spacers are formed on sidewalls of the gate spacers. The dummy spacers are used as a mask to recess or completely remove an exposed portion of the epi layer. Silicidation forms silicide regions that abut the source and drain regions and each include a vertical portion located on the vertical sidewall of the source or drain region.

    摘要: A domino logic circuit having a clocked precharge is disclosed. The domino logic circuit includes a precharge transistor, an isolation transistor, and multiple evaluate transistors. Connected to a power supply, the precharge transistor receives a clock input. The isolation transistor is connected to ground and also receives the clock input. Each of the input transistors, which are coupled between the precharge transistor and the isolation transistor, receives a signal input. The gate dielectric thickness of the evaluate transistors is less than the gate dielectric thickness of the precharge transistor.
