Abstract: Nanosheet FET devices having substrate isolation layers are provided, as well as methods for fabricating nanosheet FET devices with substrate isolation layers. For example, a semiconductor device includes a nanosheet stack structure formed on a substrate, which includes a rare earth oxide (REO) layer formed on the substrate, and a semiconductor channel layer disposed adjacent to the REO layer. A metal gate structure is formed over the nanosheet stack structure, and a gate insulating spacer is disposed on sidewalls of the metal gate structure, wherein end portions of the semiconductor channel layer are exposed through the gate insulating spacer. Source/drain regions are formed in contact with the exposed end portions of the semiconductor channel layer. A portion of the metal gate structure is disposed between the semiconductor channel layer and the REO layer, wherein the REO layer isolates the metal gate structure from the substrate.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to a method and resulting structures for forming thin and thick gate dielectric nanosheet transistors on the same chip. A first nanosheet stack having a first sacrificial layer between a first nanosheet and a second nanosheet is formed on a substrate. A second nanosheet stack having a first sacrificial layer between a first nanosheet and a second nanosheet is formed on the substrate. The first nanosheet of the first nanosheet stack is doped and concurrently removed with the first sacrificial layer of the first nanosheet stack and the first sacrificial layer of the second nanosheet stack.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to fabrication operations for co-integrating standard-gate (SG) and extended-gate (EG) nanosheet/nanowire transistors on the same substrate. The SG and EG nanosheet/nanowire transistors share certain fabrication operations for certain features. For example, the processes to form the bottommost channel nanosheet, the bottommost sacrificial nanosheet, and the topmost channel nanosheet are the same for SG nanosheet transistors and the EG nanosheet transistors. Because the thickness of the sacrificial nanosheet needs to be thicker for EG nanosheet transistors, a thickness of the bottommost sacrificial nanosheet is selected to accommodate the design parameters of the EG nanosheet transistor. Because the thickness of the SG and the EG channel nanosheets do not need to be different, a thickness of the bottommost channel nanosheet and the topmost channel nanosheet can be selected to accommodate the design parameters of both the SG and the EG nanosheet transistors.

The insulator includes a high-K dielectric material surrounded by a low-K dielectric material, both of which are in contact with the two adjacent semiconductor layers.

Abstract: A one-time programmable (OTP) vertical field-effect transistor (VFET) can be fabricated on the top surface of an integrated circuit (IC) substrate having a fin. A doped layer can be deposited onto the top surface to create an OTP VFET drain. A dielectric layer can be formed onto side surfaces of the fin, and a gate dielectric layer formed onto side surfaces of the dielectric layer. A metal layer formed onto side surfaces of the gate dielectric layer can create an OTP VFET gate. An electrically insulative top spacer layer can then be attached to top edges of the dielectric, the gate dielectric layer, and the metal layer. A doped structure formed onto the top surface of the fin can create an OTP VFET source. A voltage applied to a portion of the gate dielectric layer can cause dielectric breakdown, which can be used to store a data value.
