Abstract:
Fin shaping using templates, and integrated circuit structures resulting therefrom, are described. For example, integrated circuit structure includes a semiconductor fin having a protruding fin portion above an isolation structure above a substrate. The protruding fin portion has a vertical portion and one or more lateral recess pairs in the vertical portion. A gate stack is over and conformal with the protruding fin portion of the semiconductor fin. A first source or drain region is at a first side of the gate stack. A second source or drain region is at a second side of the gate stack opposite the first side of the gate stack.
Abstract:
A nanowire device having a plurality of internal spacers and a method for forming said internal spacers are disclosed. In an embodiment, a semiconductor device comprises a nanowire stack disposed above a substrate, the nanowire stack having a plurality of vertically-stacked nanowires, a gate structure wrapped around each of the plurality of nanowires, defining a channel region of the device, the gate structure having gate sidewalls, a pair of source/drain regions on opposite sides of the channel region; and an internal spacer on a portion of the gate sidewall between two adjacent nanowires, internal to the nanowire stack. In an embodiment, the internal spacers are formed by depositing spacer material in dimples etched adjacent to the channel region. In an embodiment, the dimples are etched through the channel region. In another embodiment, the dimples are etched through the source/drain region.

Embodiments of the disclosure are in the field of advanced integrated circuit structure fabrication and, in particular, buried channel structures integrated with non-planar structures. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a first fin structure and a second fin structure above a substrate. A gate structure is on a portion of the substrate directly between the first fin structure and the second fin structure. A source region is in the first fin structure. A drain region is in the second fin structure.
