  • Publication number: 20230097948
    Abstract: Integrated circuitry comprising transistor structures having a channel portion over a base portion of fin. The base portion of the fin is an insulative amorphous oxide, or a counter-doped crystalline material. Transistor structures, such as channel portions of a fin and source and drain materials may be first formed with epitaxial processes seeded by a front side of a crystalline substrate. Following front side processing, a backside of the transistor structures may be exposed and the base portion of the fin modified from the crystalline substrate composition into the amorphous oxide or counter-doped crystalline material using backside processes and low temperatures that avoid degradation to the channel material while reducing transistor off-state leakage.

  • Publication number: 20220415708
    Abstract: Integrated circuitry comprising transistor structures with a source/drain etch stop layer to limit the depth of source and drain material relative to a channel of the transistor. A portion of a channel material layer may be etched in preparation for source and drain materials. The etch may be stopped at an etch stop layer buried between a channel material layer and an underlying planar substrate layer. The etch stop layer may have a different composition than the channel layer while retaining crystallinity of the channel layer. The source and drain etch stop layer may provide adequate etch selectivity to ensure a source and drain etch process does not punch through the etch stop layer. Following the etch process, source and drain materials may be formed, for example with an epitaxial growth process. The source and drain etch stop layer may be, for example, primarily silicon and carbon.
