摘要:
Method for forming a structure provided with at least one zone of one or several semiconductor nanocrystals (13). It consists in: exposing with a beam of electrons (11) at least one zone (12) of a semiconductor film (1) lying on an electrically insulating support (2), the exposed zone (12) contributing to defining at least one dewetting zone (10) of the film (1), annealing the film (1) at high temperature in such a way that the dewetting zone (10) retracts giving the zone of one or several nanocrystals (13).

摘要:
A method is provided for fabricating a thin layer element, in which a layer of a first material supports a pattern of a second material having a thickness of less than 15 nm, including a step of doping by implanting a chemical species over at least a portion of the layer-pattern assembly to stabilize the pattern on the layer.
摘要:
The invention relates to a thin film having a thickness of less than 10 nm, made of oxidizable semi-conductor material and patterned in the form of patterns. To prevent the dewetting phenomenon of said patterns, lateral oxidized zones are arranged at the periphery of each pattern of the thin film so as to form an anchoring.This anchoring can be achieved by forming an oxide layer over the whole of the thin film and then depositing a nitride layer. Then the nitride and oxide layers and the thin film are patterned and the thin film is laterally oxidized so that each pattern of the thin film comprises, at the periphery thereof, an oxidized zone of predetermined width. The nitride and oxide layers are then removed so as to release the patterns oxidized at their periphery.
摘要:
A method for insulating patterns formed in a thin film made of a first oxidizable semi-conducting material, with a thickness less than or equal to 20 nm and preferably less than or equal to 10 nm, successively comprises: formation, on the thin film, of a mask defining, in the thin film, free zones and zones covered by the mask designed to substantially form the patterns, selective formation, at the level of the free zones of the thin film, of an additional layer formed by an oxide of a second semi-conducting material, oxidization of the free zones of the thin film, removal of the mask so as to release the thin film patterned in the form of patterns insulated by oxidized zones. The first and second semi-conducting materials can be identical and the step of selective formation of the additional layer can be performed by selective epitaxial growth of the free zones of the thin film.

摘要:
An electronic device may include a substrate, a buried oxide (BOX) layer overlying the substrate, at least one semiconductor device overlying the BOX layer, and at least one shallow trench isolation (STI) region in the substrate and adjacent the at least one semiconductor device. The at least one STI region defines a sidewall surface with the substrate and may include an oxide layer lining a bottom portion of the sidewall surface, a nitride layer lining a top portion of the sidewall surface above the bottom portion, and an insulating material within the nitride and oxide layers.
摘要:
A method of producing a microelectronic device in a substrate comprising a first semiconductor layer, a dielectric layer and a second semiconductor layer, comprising the following steps: etching a trench through the first semiconductor layer, the dielectric layer and a part of the thickness of the second semiconductor layer, thus defining, in the first semiconductor layer, one active region of the microelectronic device, ionic implantation in one or more side walls of the trench, at the level of the second semiconductor layer, modifying the crystallographic properties and/or the chemical properties of the implanted semiconductor, etching of the implanted semiconductor such that at least a part of the trench extends under a part of the active region, —filling of the trench with a dielectric material, forming an isolation trench surrounding the active region and comprising portions extending under a part of the active region.
