    摘要: A field effect transistor (FET) device, which mitigates leakage current induced along the edges of the FET device, is isolated by shallow trench isolation having a channel width between a first and a second shallow trench at a first and second shallow trench edges. A gate extends across the channel width between the first and second shallow trenches. The gate has a first length at the shallow trench edges and a second length less than the first length between the shallow trench edges. The first length and the second length are related such that the threshold voltage, V.sub.t, at the shallow trench edges is substantially equal to V.sub.t between the shallow trench edges. The gate structure of the FET device is produced using a unique phase shift mask that allows the manufacture of submicron FET devices with very small channel lengths.

    摘要: An EEPROM cell includes a dual-gate transistor having a floating gate for storing the data and a select gate to access the cell, the two gates each being formed from poly sidewalls and being separated by a thin vertical oxide member that is formed by growing oxide on the vertical poly sidewalls of an aperture in which the select gate is formed, so that the final structure has dimensions that are less than those obtainable with optical lithography because both gates are sidewalls and therefore not limited to the dimensions achievable with optical lithography.

    摘要: An SOI transistor has a self-aligned body contact formed through an extension to the gate, thereby forming the body contact with minimal increase in area and also avoiding the need to tie the source to the body, as in prior art schemes that passed the body contact through the source. The body contact aperture is formed by raising the source and drain to define an initial aperture, depositing a conformal layer that is etched to create aperture-defining sidewalls and etching the contact aperture using these sidewalls to define sidewall support members that support insulating sidewalls to isolate the collection electrode from both the gate and from the source and drain.

    摘要: An improved design for high aspect ratio MOS devices is capable of 100% yields. The design is suitable for low voltage CMOS devices, such as microprocessors, which use the high aspect ratio MOS devices in embedded applications, and for HEMTs in high frequency applications, such as high power microwave devices. The high yields reduce manufacturing costs. A modular MOS concept is introduced to realize the 100% yield of large channel width devices. The structure of the modular MOS device is a regular MOS device with a unit device channel width. This can be a multi-finger device which has a proper dimension to be able to fit in a given layout area. Therefore, the number of modules which are needed to form a full large width device is not only determined by module size, but also on the manufacturing yield record, allowed chip real estate and performance requirement.

    摘要: A trench capacitor DRAM cell with Shallow Trench Isolation (STI), a self-aligned buried strap and the method of making the cell. A trench capacitor is defined in a substrate. The trench capacitor's polysilicon (poly) plate is recessed below the surface of the substrate and the trench sidewalls are exposed above the poly. A doped poly layer is deposited over the surface contacting both the sidewall and the trench capacitor's poly plate. Horizontal portions of the poly layer are removed either through chemmech polishing or Reactive Ion Etching (RIE). A shallow trench is formed, removing one formerly exposed trench sidewall and a portion of the trench capacitor's poly plate in order to isolate the DRAM cell from adjacent cells. The remaining poly strap, along the trench sidewall contacting the poly plate, is self aligned to contact the source of the DRAM Pass gate Field Effect Transistor (FET). After the shallow trench is filled with oxide, FET's are formed on the substrate, completing the cell. In an alternate embodiment, instead of recessing the poly plate, a shallow trench is formed spanning the entire width of the trench capacitor. The deposited polysilicon is selectively removed, having straps that strap the poly plate to the shallow trench sidewall.

The conventional four-by-four DRAM array shown schematically in FIG. 1a is rearranged to the shared-gate, double-bit array shown schematically in FIG. 1b.

    摘要: A field effect transistor (FET) with a vertical gate and a very thin channel sandwiched between source and drain layers. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the FET is formed on a silicon on insulator (SOI) substrate with the silicon layer serving as the first layer (e.g., the source layer). A low temperature epitaxial (LTE) process is used to form a very thin (e.g., 0.1 .mu.m) channel, and a chemically vapor deposited polysilicon layer forms the top layer (e.g., the drain layer). An opening is etched through the three layers to the insulator substrate and its wall is oxidized, forming a gate oxide. Polysilicon is deposited to fill the opening and form the vertical gate.
