Abstract:
Semiconductor device structures and fabrication methods for field effect transistors in which a gate electrode is provided with an air gap or void disposed adjacent to a sidewall of the gate electrode. The void may be bounded by a dielectric spacer proximate to the sidewall of the gate electrode and a dielectric layer having a spaced relationship with the dielectric spacer. The methods of the invention involve the use of a temporary spacer consisting of a sacrificial material supplied adjacent to the sidewall of the gate electrode, which is removed after the dielectric layer is formed.
