  • Tungsten gates for non-planar transistors
    Patent number: 9580776
    Abstract: The present description relates to the field of fabricating microelectronic devices having non-planar transistors. Embodiments of the present description relate to the formation of gates within non-planar NMOS transistors, wherein an NMOS work-function material, such as a composition of aluminum, titanium, and carbon, may be used in conjunction with a titanium-containing gate fill barrier to facilitate the use of a tungsten-containing conductive material in the formation of a gate electrode of the non-planar NMOS transistor gate.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 21, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 28, 2017
    Assignee: Intel Corporation
    Inventors: Sameer S. Pradhan, Daniel B. Bergstrom, Jin-Sung Chun, Julia Chiu
  • Source/drain contacts for non-planar transistors
    Patent number: 9425316
    Abstract: The present description relates to the field of fabricating microelectronic devices having non-planar transistors. Embodiments of the present description relate to the formation of source/drain contacts within non-planar transistors, wherein a titanium-containing contact interface may be used in the formation of the source/drain contact with a discreet titanium silicide formed between the titanium-containing interface and a silicon-containing source/drain structure.
