摘要:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor structure. According to one aspect of the invention, on a first semiconductor substrate, a first compositionally graded Si1-xGex buffer is deposited where the Ge composition x is increasing from about zero to a value less than about 20%. Then a first etch-stop Si1-yGey layer is deposited where the Ge composition y is larger than about 20% so that the layer is an effective etch-stop. A second etch-stop layer of strained Si is then grown. The deposited layer is bonded to a second substrate. After that the first substrate is removed to release said first etch-stop S1-yGey layer. The remaining structure is then removed in another step to release the second etch-stop layer. According to another aspect of the invention, a semiconductor structure is provided. The structure has a layer in which semiconductor devices are to be formed. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate, an insulating layer, a relaxed SiGe layer where the Ge composition is larger than approximately 15%, and a device layer selected from a group consisting of, but not limited to, strained-Siy relaxed Si1-yGey layer, strained Si1-zGey layer, Ge, GaAs, III-V materials, and II-VI materials, where Ge compositions y and z are values between 0 and 1.

A multiple-gate FET structure includes a semiconductor substrate. A gate region is formed on the semiconductor substrate. The gate region comprises a gate portion and a channel portion. The gate portion has at least two opposite vertical surfaces adjacent to the channel portion. A source region abuts the gate region at one end, and a drain diffusion region abuts the gate region at the other end.

摘要:
A process for producing monocrystalline semiconductor layers. In an exemplary embodiment, a graded Si1-xGex (x increases from 0 to y) is deposited on a first silicon substrate, followed by deposition of a relaxed Si1-yGey layer, a thin strained Si1-zGez layer and another relaxed Si1-yGey layer. Hydrogen ions are then introduced into the strained SizGez layer. The relaxed Si1-yGey layer is bonded to a second oxidized substrate. An annealing treatment splits the bonded pair at the strained Si layer, such that the second relaxed Si1-yGey layer remains on the second substrate. In another exemplary embodiment, a graded SixGex is deposited on a first silicon substrate, where the Ge concentration x is increased from 0 to 1. Then a relaxed GaAs layer is deposited on the relaxed Ge buffer. As the lattice constant of GaAs is close to that of Ge, GaAs has high quality with limited dislocation defects. Hydrogen ions are introduced into the relaxed GaAs layer at the selected depth. The relaxed GaAs layer is bonded to a second oxidized substrate. An annealing treatment splits the bonded pair at the hydrogen ion rich layer, such that the upper portion of relaxed GaAs layer remains on the second substrate.

In forming an electronic device, a semiconductor layer is pre-doped and a dopant distribution anneal is performed prior to gate definition. Alternatively, the gate is formed from a metal. Subsequently formed shallow sources and drains, therefore, are not affected by the gate annealing step.

Strained Si/strained SiGe dual-channel layer substrate provides mobility advantage and when used as a CMOS substrate enables single workfunction metal-gate electrode technology. A single metal electrode with workfunction of 4.5 eV produces near ideal CMOS performance on a dual-channel layer substrate that consists sequentially of a silicon wafer, an epitaxially grown 30% Ge relaxed SiGe layer, a compressively strained 60% Ge layer, and a tensile-strained Si cap layer.
