In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a gallium arsenide layer on a substrate. A channel structure is on the gallium arsenide layer. The channel structure includes indium, gallium and arsenic. A source structure is at a first end of the channel structure and a drain structure is at a second end of the channel structure. A gate structure is over the channel structure, the gate structure having a first workfunction material laterally adjacent a second workfunction material.

Abstract: Monolithic two-dimensional (2D) arrays of double-sided DRAM cells including a frontside bit cell over a backside bit cell. Each double-sided cell includes a stacked transistor structure having at least a first transistor over a second transistor. Each double-sided cell further includes a first capacitor on a frontside of the stacked transistor structure and electrically coupled to a source/drain of the first transistor. Each double-sided cell further includes a second capacitor on a backside of the stacked transistor structure and electrically coupled to a source/drain of the second transistor. Frontside cell addressing interconnects are electrically coupled to other terminals of at least the first transistor while one or more backside addressing interconnects are electrically coupled to at least one terminal of the second transistor or second capacitor.

Abstract: A nanowire transistor structure has a first device region with a first body of semiconductor material having a first cross-sectional shape. A second device region has a second body with a second cross-sectional shape different from the first cross-sectional shape. The first device section is vertically above or below the second device section with the bodies extending horizontally between a source and drain. A first gate structure is wrapped around the first body and a second gate structure is wrapped around the second body. Differences in the geometries of the nanowires can be used to optimize performance in the first device section independently of the second device section.

Abstract: Gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having depopulated channel structures, and methods of fabricating gate-all-around integrated circuit structures having depopulated channel structures using a selective bottom-up approach, are described. For example, an integrated circuit structure includes a vertical arrangement of nanowires above a substrate. The vertical arrangement of nanowires has one or more active nanowires above one or more oxide nanowires. A first gate stack is over and around the one or more active nanowires. A second gate stack is over and around the one or more oxide nanowires.

Abstract: Tunneling Field Effect Transistors (TFETs) are promising devices in that they promise significant performance increase and energy consumption decrease due to a steeper subthreshold slope (for example, smaller sub-threshold swing). In various embodiments, vertical fin-based TFETs can be fabricated in trenches, for example, silicon trenches. In another embodiment, vertical TFETs can be used on different material systems acting as a substrate and/or trenches (for example, Si, Ge, III-V semiconductors, GaN, and the like). In one embodiment, the tunneling direction in the channel of the vertical TFET can be perpendicular to the Si substrates. In one embodiment, this can be different than the tunneling direction in the channel of lateral TFETs.

Abstract: A monolithic three-dimensional integrated circuit may include multiple transistor levels separated by one or more levels of metallization. An upper level transistor structure may include a monocrystalline channel material over a bottom gate stack. The channel material and the gate stack materials may be formed on a donor substrate at any suitable temperature, and subsequently transferred from the donor substrate to a host substrate that includes lower-level circuitry. The upper-level transistor may be patterned from the transferred layers so that the gate electrode includes one or more bonding layers. Source and drain material may be patterned from a source and drain material layer that was transferred from the donor substrate along with the channel material, or source and drain material may be grown at low temperatures from the transferred channel material.

Abstract: A transistor includes a semiconductor fin with a subfin layer of a subfin material selected from a first group III-V compound a channel layer of a channel material directly on the subfin layer and extending upwardly therefrom, the channel material being a second group III-V compound different from the first group III-V compound. A gate structure is in direct contact with the channel layer of the semiconductor fin, where the gate structure is further in direct contact with one of (i) a top surface of the subfin layer, the top surface being exposed where the channel layer meets the subfin layer because the channel layer is narrower than the subfin layer, or (ii) a liner layer of liner material in direct contact with opposing sidewalls of the subfin layer, the liner material being distinct from the first and second group III-V compounds.

Abstract: Group III-V semiconductor devices having asymmetric source and drain structures and their methods of fabrication are described. In an example, an integrated circuit structure includes a gallium arsenide layer on a substrate. A channel structure is on the gallium arsenide layer. The channel structure includes indium, gallium and arsenic. A source structure is at a first end of the channel structure and a drain structure is at a second end of the channel structure. The drain structure has a wider band gap than the source structure. A gate structure is over the channel structure.

Abstract: Thin film transistor structures may include a regrown source or drain material between a channel material and source or drain contact metallization. The source or drain material may be selectively deposited at low temperatures to backfill recesses formed in the channel material. Electrically active dopant impurities may be introduced in-situ during deposition of the source or drain material. The source or drain material may overlap a portion of a gate electrode undercut by the recesses. With channel material of a first composition and source or drain material of a second composition, thin film transistor structures may display low external resistance and high channel mobility.

For example, in some embodiments, a transistor arrangement may include a channel material disposed over a substrate; a gate electrode of a first tri-gate or all-around-gate transistor, disposed over a first part of the channel material; and a gate electrode of a second tri-gate or all-around-gate transistor, disposed over a second part of the channel material. The transistor arrangement may further include a device isolation structure made of a fixed charge dielectric material disposed over a third part of the channel material, the third part being between the first part and the second part of the channel material.
