A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes patterning a substrate to form an active fin, forming a sacrificial gate pattern crossing over the active fin on the substrate, forming an interlayer insulating layer on the sacrificial gate pattern, removing the sacrificial gate pattern to form a gap region exposing the active fin in the interlayer insulating layer, and oxidizing a portion of the active fin exposed by the gap region to form an insulation pattern between the active fin and the substrate.

The method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming an active fin on a substrate; oxidizing a portion of the active fin to form an insulating pattern between the active fin and the substrate; forming a first gate pattern on the substrate, wherein the first gate pattern crosses the active fin; exposing the substrate on both sides of the first gate pattern; and forming source/drain regions on the exposed substrate.
Abstract:
Presented are structures and methods for forming such structures that allow for electrical or diffusion breaks between transistors of one level of a stacked transistor device, without necessarily requiring that a like electrical or diffusion break exists in another level of the stacked transistor device. Also presented, an electrical break between transistor devices may be formed by providing a channel of a first polarity with a false gate comprising a work-function metal of an opposite polarity.
Abstract:
A multi-channel semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) transistor includes a substrate having an electrically insulating layer thereon and a semiconductor active layer on the electrically insulating layer. A vertical stack of spaced-apart insulated gate electrodes, which are buried within the semiconductor active layer, is also provided. This vertical stack includes a first insulated gate electrode extending adjacent the electrically insulating layer and an (N−1)th insulated gate electrode that is spaced from a surface of the semiconductor active layer, where N is a positive integer greater than two. An Nth insulated gate electrode is provided on the surface of the semiconductor active layer. A pair of source/drain regions are provided within the semiconductor active layer. These source/drain regions extend adjacent opposing sides of the vertical stack of spaced-apart insulated gate electrodes. In some of these aspects, the semiconductor active layer extends between the pair of source/drain regions and the electrically insulating layer, whereas the first insulated gate electrode contacts the electrically insulating layer.
