Abstract: Structures that include a field effect-transistor and methods of forming a structure that includes a field-effect transistor. A first field-effect transistor includes a first source/drain region, and a second field-effect transistor includes a second source/drain region. A first contact is arranged over the first source/drain region, and a second contact is arranged over the second source/drain region. A portion of a dielectric layer, which is composed of a low-k dielectric material, is laterally arranged between the first contact and the second contact.

Abstract: Low resistivity, wrap-around contact structures are provided in nanosheet devices, vertical FETs, and FinFETs. Such contact structures are obtained by delivering dopants to source/drain regions using a highly conformal, doped metal layer. The conformal, doped metal layer may be formed by ALD or CVD using a titanium tetraiodide precursor. Dopants within the conformal, doped metal layer are delivered during the formation of wrap-around metal silicide or metal germano-silicide regions. Dopant segregation at silicide/silicon interfaces or germano-silicide/silicon interfaces reduces contact resistance in the wrap-around contact structures. A contact metal layer electrically communicates with the wrap-around contact structures.

Abstract: An anti-fuse structure is provided that contains multiple breakdown points which result in low resistance after the anti-fuse structure is blown. The anti-fuse structure is provided using a method that is compatible with existing FinFET device processing flows without requiring any additional processing steps.
