摘要:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate and a gate formed on the substrate. A gate spacer is formed next to the gate. The gate spacer has a height greater than the height of the gate. A method of forming a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate with a gate layer. A hard mask layer is formed over the gate layer, and both layers are then etched using a pattern, forming a gate and a hard mask. A spacer layer is then deposited over the substrate, gate, and hard mask. The spacer layer is etched to form a gate spacer next to the gate. The hard mask is then removed.

A gate structure and method for forming the same the method including providing a silicon substrate including one of N and P-well doped regions and an overlying the CVD silicon oxide layer; forming an opening in the CVD silicon oxide layer to include a recessed area extending into a thickness portion of the silicon substrate; thermally growing a gate oxide over exposed silicon substrate portions of the recessed area; backfilling the opening with polysilicon; planarizing the polysilicon to the opening level to reveal the silicon oxide layer; and, selectively removing the silicon oxide layer to form a recessed gate structure.

A method to reduce the inverse narrow width effect in NMOS transistors is described. An oxide liner is deposited in a shallow trench that is formed to isolate active areas in a substrate. A photoresist plug is formed in the shallow trench and is recessed below the top of the substrate to expose the top portion of the oxide liner. An angled indium implant through the oxide liner into the substrate is then performed. The plug is removed and an insulator is deposited to fill the trenches. After planarization and wet etch steps, formation of a gate dielectric layer and a patterned gate layer, the NMOS transistor exhibits an improved Vt roll-off of 40 to 45 mVolts for both long and short channels. The improvement is achieved with no degradation in junction or isolation performance. The indium implant dose and angle may be varied to provide flexibility to the process.

摘要:
A method for forming a field effect transistor device within a semiconductor product employs a patterned dummy layer first as an ion implantation mask layer when forming a pair of source/drain regions, and then as a mandrel layer for forming a pair of patterned sacrificial layers which define an aperture of linewidth and location corresponding to the patterned dummy layer. A pair of sacrificial spacer layers and a gate electrode are then formed self-aligned within the aperture. The pair of patterned sacrificial layers and the pair of sacrificial spacer layers are then stripped and the gate electrode is employed as a mask for ion implanting forming a pair of lightly doped extension regions partially overlapping the pair of source/drain regions within the semiconductor substrate.

Within a method for fabricating a semiconductor integrated circuit microelectronic fabrication, there is employed a planarizing method for forming, in a self aligned fashion, a patterned second gate electrode material layer laterally adjacent but not over a patterned first gate electrode material layer, such that upon further patterning of the patterned first gate electrode material layer and the patterned second gate electrode material layer there may be formed a first gate electrode over a first active region of a semiconductor substrate and a second gate electrode over a laterally adjacent second active region of the semiconductor substrate. The method is particularly useful within the context of complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) semiconductor integrated circuit microelectronic fabrications.
