The disclosed semiconductor structures may further include a CMOS portion implemented with semiconductor materials selected from group IV of the periodic table, such as silicon, germanium, and/or silicon germanium (SiGe).

Either of the CMOS or III-N portions can be native to the underlying substrate to some degree. The techniques can be used, for example, for system-on-chip integration of a III-N voltage regulator and RF power amplifier along with column IV CMOS devices on a single substrate.

    摘要: Transistors including doped heteroepitaxial III-N source/drain crystals. In embodiments, transistors including a group IV or group III-V channel crystal employ n+ doped III-N source/drain structures on either side of a gate stack. Lateral tensile strain of the channel crystal may result from lattice mismatch between the channel crystal and the III-N source/drain crystals. In embodiments, an amorphous material is employed to limit growth of III-N material to only a single channel crystal facet, allowing a high quality monocrystalline source/drain to form that is capable of sustaining significant stress. In some embodiments, an n+ III-N source/drain crystal is grown on a (110) or (111) surface of a silicon channel crystal fabricated into a fin structure to form a tensile strained NMOS finFET.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for semiconductor device wafer bonding integration. The wafer bonding integration employs device-quality embedded epitaxial layers (e.g., high-quality single-crystal semiconductor material layers) from which one or more devices (e.g., transistors) can be formed, enabling vertical 3D integration schemes. The integration techniques include the ability to produce transistors and back-end stacks on very thin substrates, where the substrate is of device-level quality. The techniques include forming a multilayer substrate including a bulk wafer, a sacrificial layer, and a device-quality layer from which one or more transistors are formed. After back-end processing, the transistors can be bonded to a host wafer that also includes transistors, such that the transistors are stacked in a vertical fashion. After the bonding process, the bulk wafer of the multilayer substrate can be removed from the transistor that was bonded, by at least partially removing the sacrificial layer of the multilayer substrate.

    摘要: Techniques are disclosed for passivation of transistor channel region interfaces. In some cases, the transistor channel region interfaces to be passivated include the interface between the semiconductor channel and the gate dielectric and/or the interface between the sub-channel semiconductor material and isolation material. For example, an aluminum oxide (also referred to as alumina) layer may be used to passivate channel/gate interfaces where the channel material includes silicon germanium, germanium, or a III-V material. The techniques can be used to reduce the interface trap density at the channel/gate interface and the techniques can also be used to passivate the channel/gate interface in both gate first and gate last process flows. The techniques may also include an additional passivation layer at the sub-channel/isolation interface to, for example, avoid incurring additional parasitic capacitance penalty.

    摘要: The electrical and electrochemical properties of various semiconductors may limit the usefulness of various semiconductor materials for one or more purposes. A completed gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor layer containing a number of GaN power management integrated circuit (PMIC) dies may be bonded to a completed silicon semiconductor layer containing a number of complementary metal oxide (CMOS) control circuit dies. The completed GaN layer and the completed silicon layer may be full size (e.g., 300mm). A layer transfer operation may be used to bond the completed GaN layer to the completed silicon layer. The layer transfer operation may be performed on full size wafers. After slicing the full size wafers a large number of multi-layer dies, each having a GaN die layer transferred to a silicon die may be produced.
