Abstract:
A method for fabricating semiconductor device is disclosed. First, a substrate having a fin-shaped structure thereon is provided, a spacer is formed adjacent to the fin-shaped structure, and the spacer is used as mask to remove part of the substrate for forming an isolation trench, in which the isolation trench includes two sidewall portions and a bottom portion. Next, a plasma doping process is conducted to implant dopants into the two sidewall portions and the bottom portion of the isolation trench.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes at least a substrate, fin-shaped structures, a protection layer, epitaxial layers, and a gate electrode. The fin-shaped structures are disposed in a first region and a second region of the substrate. The protection layer conformally covers the surface of the substrate and the sidewalls of fin-shaped structures. The epitaxial layers respectively conformally and directly cover the fin-shaped structures in the first region. The gate electrode covers the fin-shaped structures in the second region, and the protection layer is disposed between the gate electrode and the fin-shaped structures.
Abstract:
A method for fabricating semiconductor device is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a substrate; forming a recess in the substrate; forming a buffer layer in the recess; forming an epitaxial layer on the buffer layer; and removing part of the epitaxial layer, part of the buffer layer, and part of the substrate to form fin-shaped structures.
Abstract:
A patterned structure of a semiconductor device includes a substrate, a first feature and a second feature. The first feature and the second feature are disposed on the substrate, and either of which includes a vertical segment and a horizontal segment. There is a distance between the vertical segment of the first feature and the vertical segment of the second feature, and the distance is less than the minimum exposure limits of an exposure apparatus.
Abstract:
A metal gate transistor is disclosed. The metal gate transistor includes a substrate, a metal gate on the substrate, and a source/drain region in the substrate. The metal gate further includes a high-k dielectric layer, a bottom barrier metal (BBM) layer on the high-k dielectric layer, a first work function layer on the BBM layer, a second work function layer between the BBM layer and the first work function layer, and a low resistance metal layer on the first work function layer. Preferably, the first work function layer includes a p-type work function layer and the second work function layer includes a n-type work function layer.
