摘要:
A MOSFET having a new source/drain (S/D) structure is particularly adapted to smaller feature sizes of modern CMOS technology. The S/D conductors are located on the shallow trench isolation (STI) to achieve low junction leakage and low junction capacitance. The S/D junction depth is defined by an STI etch step (according to a first method of making the MOSFET) or a silicon etch step (according to a second method of making the MOSFET). By controlling the etch depth, a very shallow junction depth is achieved. There is a low variation of gate length, since the gate area is defined by etching crystal silicon, not by etching polycrystalline silicon. There is a low aspect ratio between the gate and the S/D, since the gate conductor and the source and drain conductors are aligned on same level. A suicide technique is applied to the source and drain for low parasitic resistance; however, this will not result in severe S/D junction leakage, since the source and drain conductors sit on the STI.

A dual work function semiconductor structure with borderless contact and method of fabricating the same are presented. The structure may include a field effect transistor (FET) having a substantially cap-free gate and a conductive contact to a diffusion adjacent to the cap-free gate, wherein the conductive contact is borderless to the gate. Because the structure is a dual work function structure, the conductive contact is allowed to extend over the cap-free gate without being electrically connected thereto.

A method of fabrication and a field effect device structure are presented that reduce source/drain capacitance and allow for device body contact. A Si based material pedestal is produced, the top surface and the sidewalls of which are oriented in a way to be substantially parallel with selected crystallographic planes of the pedestal and of a supporting member. The pedestal is wet etched with an anisotropic solution containing ammonium hydroxide. The sidewalls of the pedestal become faceted forming a segment in the pedestal with a reduced cross section. The dopant concentration in the reduced cross section segment is chosen to be sufficiently high for it to provide for electrical continuity through the pedestal.

A method of fabricating a plurality of FinFETs on a semiconductor substrate in which the gate width of each individual FinFET is defined utilizing only a single etching process, instead of two or more, is provided. The inventive method results in improved gate width control and less variation of the gate width of each individual gate across the entire surface of the substrate. The inventive method achieves the above by utilizing a modified sidewall image transfer (SIT) process in which an insulating spacer that is later replaced by a gate conductor is employed and a high-density bottom up oxide fill is used to isolate the gate from the substrate.
