摘要:
A method of manufacturing a vertical transistor. A doped region is formed in a substrate. We form sequentially on the substrate: a first spacer dielectric layer, a first gate electrode, a second spacer dielectric layer, a second gate electrode and a third spacer dielectric layer. A trench is formed through the first spacer dielectric layer, the first gate electrode, the second spacer dielectric layer, the second gate electrode and the third spacer dielectric layer. The trench has sidewalls. A gate dielectric layer is formed over the sidewalls of the trench. We form sequentially, in the trench: a first doped layer, a first channel layer, a second doped layer, a third doped layer, a second channel layer, and a fourth doped layer. A cap layer is formed over the structure. Contacts are preferably formed to the doped region, doped layers and gate electrodes.
摘要:
A patterned and etched layer of gate electrode material is formed over the active surface of a substrate, a layer of liner oxide is created, gate spacers are created. Under the first embodiment of the invention, a layer of TEOS is deposited over the created structure over which a layer of nitride is deposited, The layer of nitride is etched, this etch is extended into an overetch creating openings through the layer of TEOS where this layer overlies the gate spacers. The gate spacers are then further etched. Under the second embodiment of the invention, a layer of TEOS is deposited over the created structure. The layer of TEOS is etched, stopping on the silicon nitride of the gate spacers. The gate spacers are then further etched.
摘要:
A CMOS RF device and a method to fabricate said device with low gate contact resistance are described. Conventional MOS transistor is first formed with isolation regions, poly-silicon gate structure, sidewall spacers around poly gate, and implanted source/drain with lightly and heavily doped regions. A silicon dioxide layer such as TEOS is deposited, planarized with chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) to expose the gate and treated with dilute HF etchant to recess the silicon dioxide layer below the surface of the gate. Silicon nitride is then deposited and planarized with CMP and then etched except around the gates, using a oversize poly-silicon gate mask. Inter-level dielectric mask is then deposited, contact holes etched, and contact metal is deposited to form the transistor. During contact hole etch over poly-silicon gate, silicon nitride around the poly gate acts as an etch stop. Resulting structure with direct gate contact achieves significantly reduced gate resistance and thereby improved noise performance at high frequency operation, increased unit power gain frequency (fmax), and reduced gate delay.
