    摘要: A multi-mesa FET structure with doped sidewalls for source/drain regions and methods for forming the same are disclosed. The exposure of the source and drain sidewalls during the manufacture enables uniform doping of the entire sidewalls especially when geometry-independent doping methods, such as gas phase doping or plasma doping, is used. The resulting device has depth independent and precisely controlled threshold voltage and current density and can have very high current per unit area of silicon as the mesas can be very high compared with mesas that could be formed in prior arts. Methods of providing multi-mesa FET structures are provided which employ either a damascene gate process or a damascene replacement gate process instead of conventional subtractive etching methods.

    摘要: A method and structure for selectively growing epitaxial silicon in a trench formed within a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) structure. The SOI structure includes a buried oxide layer (BOX) on a bulk silicon substrate, and a silicon layer on the BOX. A pad layer is formed on the silicon layer. The pad layer includes a pad nitride (e.g., silicon nitride) on a pad oxide (e.g., silicon dioxide), and the pad oxide has been formed on the silicon layer. A trench is formed by anisotropically etching through the pad layer, the silicon layer, the BOX, and to a depth within the bulk silicon substrate. Insulative spacers are formed on sidewalls of the trench. An epitaxial silicon layer is grown in the trench from a bottom of the trench to above the pad layer. The pad layer and portions of the epitaxial layer are removed (e.g., by chemical mechanical polishing), resulting in a planarized top surface of the epitaxial layer that is about coplanar with a top surface of the silicon layer. Electronic devices may be formed within the epitaxial silicon of the trench. Such electronic devices may include dynamic random access memory (DRAM), bipolar transistors, Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) circuits which are sensitive to floating body effects, and devices requiring threshold voltage matching. Semiconductor devices (e.g., field effect transistors) may be coupled to the SOI structure outside the trench.

    摘要: A wrapped-gate transistor includes a substrate having an upper surface and first and second side surfaces opposing to each other. Source and drain regions are formed in the substrate with a channel region therebetween. The channel region extends from the first side surface to the second side surfaces of the substrate. A gate dielectric layer is formed on the substrate. A gate electrode is formed on the gate dielectric layer to cover the channel region from the upper surface and the first and second side surfaces with the gate dielectric therebetween. The substrate is a silicon island formed on an insulation layer of an SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrate or on a conventional non-SOI substrate, and has four side surfaces including the first and second side surfaces. The source and drain regions are formed on the portions of the substrate adjoining the third and fourth side surfaces which are perpendicular to the first and second side surfaces. The wrapped-gate structure provides a better and quicker potential control within the channel area, which yields steep sub-threshold slope and low sensitivity to the “body-to-source” voltage.

    摘要: An antifuse having a link including a region of unsilicided semiconductor material may be programmed at reduced voltage and current and with reduced generation of heat by electromigration of metal or silicide from a cathode into the region of unsilicided semiconductor material to form an alloy having reduced bulk resistance. The cathode and anode are preferably shaped to control regions from which and to which material is electrically migrated. After programming, additional electromigration of material can return the antifuse to a high resistance state. The process by which the antifuse is fabricated is completely compatible with fabrication of field effect transistors and the antifuse may be advantageously formed on isolation structures.

    摘要: An antifuse structure includes a sense pad contact region that is separate from an anode contact region and a cathode contact region. By including the sense pad contact region that is separate from the anode contact region and the cathode contact region, a programming current flow when programming the antifuse structure may travel a different pathway than a sense current flow when sensing the antifuse structure. In particular a sense current flow may avoid a depletion region created within the cathode contact region when programming the antifuse structure.
