Abstract: A method of fabricating an integrated circuit device includes forming a first gate structure in a first region of a substrate and a second gate structure in a second region of the substrate. The method includes forming a protective layer overlying the first and the second gate structures. The method includes removing a portion of the protective layer over the second gate structure. The method includes forming features adjacent to the second gate structure. The method further includes forming a spacer over at least a portion of the features adjacent to the second gate structure, wherein the features separate the spacer from the substrate adjacent to the second gate structure. The method includes removing the second portion of the protective layer. Removing the second portion of the protective layer includes forming a protector over the second gate structure; and performing an etching process using a chemical comprising hydrofluoric acid (HF).

Abstract: Semiconductor materials, particularly III-V materials used to form, e.g., a finlike structure can suffer structural damage during chemical mechanical polishing steps. This damage can be reduced or eliminated by oxidizing the damaged surface of the material and then etching away the oxidized material. The etching step can be accomplished simultaneously with a step of etching back a patterned oxide layers, such as a shallow trench isolation layer.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring an ion distribution of a wafer comprises a first sensor and a sensor. The first sensor, the second senor and the wafer are placed in an effective range of a uniform ion implantation current profile. A controller determines the ion dose of each region of the wafer based upon the detected signal from the first sensor and the second senor. In addition, the controller adjusts the scanning frequency of an ion beam or the movement speed of the wafer to achieve a uniform ion distribution on the wafer.

Abstract: In a pattern formation method, a photoresist layer is formed over a substrate by combining a first precursor and a second precursor in a vapor state to form a photoresist material. The first precursor is an organometallic having a formula MaRbXc, where M is one or more selected from the group consisting of Sn, Bi, Sb, In, and Te, R is an alkyl group that is substituted by different EDG and/or EWG, X is a halide or sulfonate group, and 1≤a≤2, b≥1, c≥1, and b+c≤4. The second precursor is water, an amine, a borane, and/or a phosphine. The photoresist material is deposited over the substrate, and selectively exposed to actinic radiation to form a latent pattern, and the latent pattern is developed by applying a developer to the selectively exposed photoresist layer to form a pattern.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a photoresist layer over a substrate, including combining a first precursor and a second precursor in a vapor state to form a photoresist material, and depositing the photoresist material over the substrate. A protective layer is formed over the photoresist layer. The photoresist layer is selectively exposed to actinic radiation through the protective layer to form a latent pattern in the photoresist layer. The protective layer is removed, and the latent pattern is developed by applying a developer to the selectively exposed photoresist layer to form a pattern.
