摘要:
A semiconductor structure includes an epitaxial surface semiconductor layer having a first dopant polarity and a first crystallographic orientation, and a laterally adjacent semiconductor-on-insulator surface semiconductor layer having a different second dopant polarity and different second crystallographic orientation. The epitaxial surface semiconductor layer has a first edge that has a defect and an adjoining second edge absent a defect. Located within the epitaxial surface semiconductor layer is a first device having a first gate perpendicular to the first edge and a second device having a second gate perpendicular to the second edge. The first device may include a performance sensitive logic device and the second device may include a yield sensitive memory device. An additional semiconductor structure includes a further laterally adjacent second semiconductor-on-insulator surface semiconductor layer having the first polarity and the second crystallographic orientation, and absent edge defects, to accommodate yield sensitive devices.

摘要:
A gate structure in a CMOS is fabricated wherein the encapsulation material is self-aligned with the gate conductor and the gate channel. The gate conductor is formed subsequent to the device doping and heat cycles for formulation of the source and drain junction, and is preferably of greater width than the gate.
