Abstract: Devices, transistor structures, systems, and techniques are described herein related to field effect transistors having a doping layer on metal chalcogenide nanoribbons outside of the channel region. The doping layer is a metal oxide that shifts the electrical characteristics of the nanoribbons and is formed by depositing a metal and oxidizing the metal by exposure to ozone and ultraviolet light.

Abstract: A transistor in an integrated circuit (IC) die includes source and drain terminals having a bulk material enclosed by a liner material. A nanoribbon channel region couples the source and drain terminals. The nanoribbon may include a transition metal and a chalcogen. The liner material may contact ends and upper and lower surfaces of the nanoribbon. The transistor may be in an interconnect layer. The source and drain terminals may be formed by conformally depositing the liner material over the ends of the nanoribbon and in voids opened in the IC die.

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 transistor structure includes a stack of nanoribbons spanning between terminals of the transistor. Ends of the nanoribbons include silicon, and channel regions between the ends include a transition metal and a chalcogen. A gate structure over the channel regions includes an insulator between the channel regions and a gate electrode material. Contact regions may be formed by modifying portions of the channel regions by adding a dopant to, or altering the crystal structure of, the channel regions. The transistor structure may be in an integrated circuit device.

Abstract: Integrated circuit (IC) structures comprising transistors with metal chalcogenide channel material synthesized on a workpiece comprising a Group IV crystal. Prior to synthesis of the metal chalcogenide material, a passivation material is formed over the Group IV crystal to limit exposure of the substrate to the growth precursor gas(es) and thereby reduce a quantity of chalcogen species subsequently degassed from the workpiece. The passivation material may be applied to the front side, back side, and/or edge of a workpiece. The passivation material may be sacrificial or retained as a permanent feature of an IC structure. The passivation material may be advantageously amorphous and/or a compound comprising at least one of a metal or nitrogen that is good diffusion barrier and thermally stable at the metal chalcogenide synthesis temperatures.

Abstract: Transistors and integrated circuitry including a 2D channel material layer within a stack of material layers further including one or more insulator (e.g., dielectric) materials above and/or below the 2D channel material layer.

In some exemplary embodiments, the 2D channel material is a metal chalcogenide and the supporting insulator layer is advantageously a dielectric material composition having a low dielectric constant.
