Abstract: A transistor structure includes a layer of active material on a base. The base can be insulator material in some cases. The layer has a channel region between a source region and a drain region. A gate structure is in contact with the channel region and includes a gate electrode and a gate dielectric, where the gate dielectric is between the gate electrode and the active material. An electrical contact is on one or both of the source region and the drain region. The electrical contact has a larger portion in contact with a top surface of the active material and a smaller portion extending through the layer of active material into the base. The active material may be, for example, a transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) in some embodiments.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing cladded metal interconnects. Given an interconnect trench, a barrier layer is conformally deposited onto the bottom and sidewalls of the trench. A first layer of a bilayer adhesion liner is selectively deposited on the barrier layer, and a second layer of the bilayer adhesion liner is selectively deposited on the first layer. An interconnect metal is deposited into the trench above the bilayer adhesion liner. Any excess interconnect metal is recessed to get the top surface of the interconnect metal to a proper plane. Recessing the excess interconnect metal may include recessing previously deposited excess adhesion liner and barrier layer materials. The exposed top surface of the interconnect metal in the trench is then capped with the bilayer adhesion liner materials to provide a cladded metal interconnect core. In some embodiments, the adhesion liner is a single layer adhesion liner.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for an integrated circuit that includes a substrate, a semiconductor device on the substrate, and a contact stack above the substrate and coupled to the semiconductor device. The contact stack includes a contact metal layer, and a semiconducting oxide layer adjacent to the contact metal layer. The semiconducting oxide layer includes a semiconducting oxide material, while the contact metal layer includes a metal with a sufficient Schottky-barrier height to induce an interfacial electric field between the semiconducting oxide layer and the contact metal layer to reject interstitial hydrogen from entering the semiconductor device through the contact stack. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
