    摘要: An integration scheme that enables full silicidation (FUSI) of the nFET and pFET gate electrodes at the same time as that of the source/drain regions is provided. The FUSI of the gate electrodes eliminates the gate depletion problem that is observed with polysilicon gate electrodes. In addition, the inventive integration scheme creates different silicon thicknesses of the gate electrode just prior to silicidation. This feature of the present invention allows for fabricating nFETs and pFETs that have a band edge workfunction that is tailored for the specific device region.

    摘要: A semiconductor structure including a p-channel field effect transistor (pFET) device located on a surface of a silicon germanium (SiGe) channel is provided in which the junction profile of the source region and the drain region is abrupt. The abrupt source/drain junctions for pFET devices are provided in this disclosure by forming an N- or C-doped Si layer directly beneath a SiGe channel layer which is located above a Si substrate. A structure is thus provided in which the N- or C-doped Si layer (sandwiched between the SiGe channel layer and the Si substrate) has approximately the same diffusion rate for a p-type dopant as the overlying SiGe channel layer. Since the N- or C-doped Si layer and the overlying SiGe channel layer have substantially the same diffusivity for a p-type dopant and because the N- or C-doped Si layer retards diffusion of the p-type dopant into the underlying Si substrate, abrupt source/drain junctions can be formed.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate having one or more device regions. Each device region comprises at least a base semiconductor substrate layer and a semiconductor device layer with a buried insulator layer located therebetween, while the semiconductor device layer is supported by one or more vertical insulating pillars. The vertical insulating pillars each preferably has a ledge extending between the base semiconductor substrate layer and the semiconductor device layer. The SOI substrates of the present invention can be readily formed from a precursor substrate structure with a “floating” semiconductor device layer that is spaced apart from the base semiconductor substrate layer by an air gap and is supported by one or more vertical insulating pillars. The air gap is preferably formed by selective removal of a sacrificial layer located between the base semiconductor substrate layer and the semiconductor device layer.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method of selectively fabricating metal gate electrodes in one or more device regions by fully siliciding (FUSI) the gate electrode. The selective formation of FUSI enables metal gate electrodes to be fabricated on devices that are compatible with workfunctions that are different from conventional n+ and p+ doped poly silicon electrodes. Each device region consists of at least one Field Effect Transistor (FET) device which consists of either a polysilicon gate electrode or a fully silicided (FUSI) gate electrode. A gate electrode comprised of silicon and a Ge containing layer is used in combination with a selective removal process of the Ge containing layer. The Ge containing layer is not removed on devices with threshold voltages that are not compatible with the FUSI workfunction. Devices that are compatible with the FUSI workfunction have the Ge containing layer removed prior to the junction silicidation step. The remaining thin silicon layer of the gate electrode becomes fully silicided during the same step as the junction silicidation step.
