Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form an integrated circuit having dielectric material formed in cavities beneath source or drain regions. The cavities may be formed within subfin portions of semiconductor devices. In one such example, a FET (field effect transistor) includes a gate structure extending around a fin or any number of nanowires of semiconductor material. The semiconductor material may extend in a first direction between source and drain regions while the gate structure extends over the semiconductor material in a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction. A dielectric fill may be formed in a recess beneath the source or drain regions, or a dielectric liner may be formed on sidewalls of the recess, to prevent epitaxial growth of the source or drain regions from the subfins. Removal of the semiconductor subfin from the backside may then be performed without causing damage to the source or drain regions.

Abstract: Techniques are provided to form semiconductor devices that include through-gate structures (e.g., gate cut structures or conductive via structures) that have an airgap spacer between the structure and the adjacent gate electrode. In an example, a semiconductor device includes a gate structure around or otherwise on a semiconductor region (or channel region) that extends from a first source or drain region to a second source or drain region. A through-gate structure may extend in a third direction through an entire thickness of the gate structure and adjacent to the semiconductor region along the second direction. The through-gate structure may be a dielectric structure (e.g., a gate cut) or a conductive structure (e.g., a via). In either case, an airgap spacer exists between the through-gate structure and the gate structure.

Abstract: Describe is a resonator that uses anti-ferroelectric (AFE) materials in the gate of a transistor as a dielectric. The use of AFE increases the strain/stress generated in the gate of the FinFET. Along with the usual capacitive drive, which is boosted with the increased polarization, additional current drive is also achieved from the piezoelectric response generated to due to AFE material. In some embodiments, the acoustic mode of the resonator is isolated using phononic gratings all around the resonator using the metal line above and vias' to body and dummy fins on the side. As such, a Bragg reflector is formed above or below the AFE based transistor. Increased drive signal from the AFE results in larger output signal and larger bandwidth.

Abstract: A transistor has multiple channel regions coupling source and drain structures, and a seed material is between one of the source or drain structures and a channel material, which includes a metal and a chalcogen. Each channel region may include a nanoribbon. A nanoribbon may have a monocrystalline structure and a thickness of a monolayer, less than 1 nm. A nanoribbon may be free of internal grain boundaries. A nanoribbon may have an internal grain boundary adjacent an end opposite the seed material. The seed material may directly contact the first of the source or drain structures, and the channel material may directly contact the second of the source or drain structures.

Abstract: A first type of ferroelectric capacitor comprises electrodes and an insulating layer comprising ferroelectric oxides. In some embodiments, the electrodes and the insulating layer comprise perovskite ferroelectric oxides. A second type of ferroelectric capacitor comprises a ferroelectric insulating layer comprising certain monochalcogenides. Both types of ferroelectric capacitors can have a coercive voltage that is less than one volt. Such capacitors are attractive for use in low-voltage non-volatile embedded memories for next-generation semiconductor manufacturing technologies.
