    摘要: A stress-transmitting dielectric layer is formed on the at least one PFET and the at least one NFET. A tensile stress generating film, such as a silicon nitride, is formed on the at least one NFET by blanket deposition and patterning. A compressive stress generating film, which may be a refractive metal nitride film, is formed on the at least one PFET by a blanket deposition and patterning. An encapsulating dielectric film is deposited over the compress stress generating film. The stress is transferred from both the tensile stress generating film and the compressive stress generating film into the underlying semiconductor structures. The magnitude of the transferred compressive stress from the refractory metal nitride film may be from about 5 GPa to about 20 GPa. The stress is memorized during an anneal and remains in the semiconductor devices after the stress generating films are removed.

    摘要: A method for preventing polysilicon stringer formation under the active device area of an isolated ultra-thin Si channel device is provided. The method utilizes a chemical oxide removal (COR) processing step to prevent stinger formation, instead of a conventional wet etch process wherein a chemical etchant such as HF is employed. A silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure is also provided. The structure includes at least a top Si-containing layer located on a buried insulating layer; and an oxide filled trench isolation region located in the top Si-containing layer and a portion of the buried insulating layer. No undercut regions are located beneath the top Si-containing layer.

    摘要: The present invention provides an integrated semiconductor circuit containing a planar single gated FET and a FinFET located on the same SOI substrate. Specifically, the integrated semiconductor circuit includes a FinFET and a planar single gated FET located atop a buried insulating layer of an silicon-on-insulator substrate, the planar single gated FET is located on a surface of a patterned top semiconductor layer of the silicon-on-insulator substrate and the FinFET has a vertical channel that is perpendicular to the planar single gated FET. A method of forming a method such an integrated circuit is also provided. In the method, resist imaging and a patterned hard mask are used in trimming the width of the FinFET active device region and subsequent resist imaging and etching are used in thinning the thickness of the FET device area. The trimmed active FinFET device region is formed such that it lies perpendicular to the thinned planar single gated FET device region.
