摘要: A semiconductor device, includes a semiconductor substrate with active regions and a first buried metal layer provided below the semiconductor substrate. The first buried metal layer includes a first buried conductive rail, a first set of buried conductive fingers that extends from the first buried conductive rail, and a second set of buried conductive fingers that are interleaved with the first set of buried conductive fingers. The first set and the second set of buried conductive fingers extends beneath more than one of the active regions. In this manner, the first set and the second set of buried conductive fingers can be utilized to distribute different voltages, such as a ungated reference voltage TVDD and a gated reference voltage VVDD in a header circuit with reduced resistance.

摘要: A semiconductor structure includes a first transistor, a second transistor, a first dummy source/drain, a third transistor, a fourth transistor, and a second dummy source/drain. The first transistor and a second transistor adjacent to the first transistor are at a first elevation. The first dummy source/drain is disposed at the first elevation. The third transistor and a fourth transistor adjacent to the third transistor, are at a second elevation different from the first elevation. The second dummy source/drain is disposed at the second elevation. The second transistor is vertically aligned with the third transistor. The first dummy source/drain is vertically aligned with a source/drain of the fourth transistor. The second dummy source/drain is vertically aligned with a source/drain of the first transistor.

摘要: A method of forming an IC device includes creating a recess by removing at least a portion of a channel of a first transistor and a portion of a gate electrode, the gate electrode being common to the first transistor and an underlying second transistor. The method includes filling the recess with a dielectric material to form an isolation layer, and constructing a slot via overlying the isolation layer.

摘要: A semiconductor structure includes an isolation structure formed on a substrate, a gate-all-around transistor structure formed on the isolation structure, a via electrically coupled to a gate terminal of the gate-all-around transistor structure, and a buried conductive pad formed within the isolation structure and electrically coupled to the via. The buried conductive pad can extend through the isolation structure in two dimensions, such as in both a vertical dimension and a horizontal dimension. The semiconductor structure can provide advantages in terms of routing flexibility, among other possible advantages.
