The channel extends in a first direction perpendicular to an upper surface of a substrate. The dummy channel extends from the upper surface of the substrate in the first direction. The plurality of gate electrodes are formed at a plurality of levels, respectively, spaced apart from each other in the first direction on the substrate. Each of the gate electrodes surrounds outer sidewalls of the channel and the dummy channel. The support pattern is between the upper surface of the substrate and a first gate electrode among the gate electrodes. The first gate electrode is at a lowermost one of the levels. The channel and the dummy channel contact each other between the upper surface of the substrate and the first gate electrode.

摘要: A method includes forming a plurality of low-k dielectric layers over a semiconductor substrate, forming a first plurality of dummy stacked structures extending into at least one of the plurality of low-k dielectric layers, forming a plurality of non-low-k dielectric layers over the plurality of low-k dielectric layers, and forming a second plurality of dummy stacked structures extending into the plurality of non-low-k dielectric layers. The second plurality of dummy stacked structures are over and connected to corresponding ones of the first plurality of dummy stacked structures. The method further includes etching the plurality of non-low-k dielectric layers, the plurality of low-k dielectric layers, and the semiconductor substrate to form a via opening. The via opening is encircled by the first plurality of dummy stacked structures and the second plurality of dummy stacked structures. The via opening is then filled to form a through-via.

摘要: IC interconnect structures including subtractively patterned features. Feature ends may be defined through multiple patterning of multiple cap materials for reduced misregistration. Subtractively patterned features may be lines integrated with damascene vias or with subtractively patterned vias, or may be vias integrated with damascene lines or with subtractively patterned lines. Subtractively patterned vias may be deposited as part of a planar metal layer and defined currently with interconnect lines. Subtractively patterned features may be integrated with air gap isolation structures. Subtractively patterned features may be include a barrier material on the bottom, top, or sidewall. A bottom barrier of a subtractively patterned features may be deposited with an area selective technique to be absent from an underlying interconnect feature. A barrier of a subtractively patterned feature may comprise graphene or a chalcogenide of a metal in the feature or in a seed layer.
