摘要: A metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitor structure includes source and drain regions formed within a semiconductor substrate, a first conducting layer formed over the source and drain regions, and a dielectric layer formed over the first conducting layer. The MIM capacitor structure further includes a second conducting layer formed over the dielectric layer, and a sidewall dielectric formed adjacent the first conducting layer and the dielectric layer. An electric field is created indirectly through the sidewall dielectric to an adjacent field effect transistor (FET) channel in the semiconductor substrate.

摘要: A method of forming a contact to a semiconductor device is provided that forms an alloy composed of nickel (Ni), platinum (Pt), aluminum (Al), titanium (Ti) and a semiconductor material. The methods may include forming a nickel and platinum semiconductor alloy at a base of a via. A titanium layer having an angstrom scale thickness is deposited in the via in contact with the nickel platinum semiconductor alloy. An aluminum containing fill is deposited atop the titanium layer. A forming gas anneal including an oxygen containing atmosphere is applied to the structure to provide a contact alloy comprising nickel, platinum, aluminum, titanium and a semiconductor element from the contact surface of the semiconductor device.

摘要: A subtractive forming method that includes providing a material stack including a samarium and selenium containing layer and an aluminum containing layer in direct contact with the samarium and selenium containing layer. The samarium component of the samarium and selenium containing layer of the exposed portion of the material stack is etched with an etch chemistry comprising citric acid and hydrogen peroxide that is selective to the aluminum containing layer. The hydrogen peroxide reacts with the aluminum containing layer to provide an oxide etch protectant surface on the aluminum containing layer, and the citric acid etches samarium selectively to the oxide etch protectant surface. Thereafter, a remaining selenium component of is removed by elevating a temperature of the selenium component.

摘要: A substrate's embedded substrate contact electrode forms a reference voltage point. A gate insulator is spaced outwardly from the substrate and has an exposed outer surface configured for contact with a fluid analyte. A device region is intermediate the substrate and the gate insulator; source and drain regions are adjacent the device region; and a field insulator is spaced outwardly of the drain region, the source region, and the substrate away from the device region. The gate insulator and the field oxide are formed of different materials having different chemical sensitivities to the fluid analyte. The field insulator is coupled to the substrate through the field insulator capacitance. The gate insulator capacitance is much smaller than the field insulator capacitance. The embedded substrate contact electrode can be connected to a separate voltage so that the electrical potential between the substrate and the source region can be controlled.
