    摘要: A semiconductor device structure is provided which includes a first field effect transistor (“FET”) having a first channel region, a first source region, a first drain region and a first gate conductor overlying the first channel region. A second FET is included which has a second channel region, a second source region, a second drain region and a second gate conductor overlying the second channel region. The first and second gate conductors are portions of a single elongated conductive member extending over both the first and second channel regions. A first stressed film overlies the first FET, the first stressed film applying a stress having a first value to the first channel region. A second stressed film overlies the second FET, the second stressed film applying a stress having a second value to the second channel region. The second value is substantially different from the first value. In addition, the first and second stressed films abut each other at a common boundary and present a substantially co-planar major surface at the common boundary.

    摘要: The present invention relates to improved complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) devices with stressed channel regions. Specifically, each improved CMOS device comprises an field effect transistor (FET) having a channel region located in a semiconductor device structure, which has a top surface oriented along one of a first set of equivalent crystal planes and one or more additional surfaces oriented along a second, different set of equivalent crystal planes. Such additional surfaces can be readily formed by crystallographic etching. Further, one or more stressor layers with intrinsic compressive or tensile stress are located over the additional surfaces of the semiconductor device structure and are arranged and constructed to apply tensile or compressive stress to the channel region of the FET. Such stressor layers can be formed by pseudomorphic growth of a semiconductor material having a lattice constant different from the semiconductor device structure.

    摘要: An etch resistant liner covering sidewalls of a transistor gate stack and along a portion of the substrate at a base of the transistor gate stack. The liner prevents silicide formation on the sidewalls of the gate stack, which may produce electrical shorting, and determines the location of silicide formation within source and drain regions within the substrate at the base of the transistor gate stack. The liner also covers a resistor gate stack preventing silicide formation within or adjacent to the resistor gate stack.

    摘要: A CMOS structure and a method for fabricating the CMOS structure include within a semiconductor substrate a first gate located over a first active region of a first polarity and a second gate located over a second active region of a second polarity different than the first polarity. The first active region and the second active region are separated by an isolation region. The first gate and the second gate are co-linear, with facing endwalls that terminate over the isolation region. The facing endwalls do not have a spacer located or formed adjacent or adjoining thereto, although sidewalls of the first gate and the second gate do. The CMOS structure may be fabricated using a sequential replacement gate method.

    摘要: A field effect transistor (FET) with an adjacent body contact, a SOI IC with circuits including the FETs and a method of fabricating the ICs. Device islands are formed in the silicon surface layer of a SOI wafer. Gates are defined on the wafer. Body contacts are formed in a perimeter conductive region adjacent to the gates. The body contacts may be either a silicide strap along the gate sidewall at one side of the FET or a separate contact separated from the gate by a dielectric stripe at one side of the FET. Separate contacts may be connected to a bias supply.

    摘要: This invention provides a method for reducing tip-to-tip spacing between lines using a combination of photolithographic and copolymer self-assembling lithographic techniques. A mask layer is first formed over a substrate with a line structure. A trench opening of a width d is created in the mask layer. A layer of a self-assembling block copolymer is then applied over the mask layer. The block copolymer layer is annealed to form a single unit polymer block of a width or a diameter w which is smaller than d inside the trench opening. The single unit polymer block is selectively removed to form a single opening of a width or a diameter w inside the trench opening. An etch transfer process is performed using the single opening as a mask to form an opening in the line structure in the substrate.
