  • Publication number: 20110254102
    Abstract: A hybrid orientation inversion mode GAA (Gate-All-Around) CMOSFET includes a PMOS region having a first channel, an NMOS region having a second channel and a gate region. The first channel and the second channel have a racetrack-shaped cross section and are formed of n-type Si (110) and p-type Si(100), respectively; the surfaces of the first channel and the second channel are substantially surrounded by the gate region; a buried oxide layer is disposed between the PMOS region and the NMOS region and between the PMOS or NMOS region and the Si substrate to isolate them from one another. The device structure according to the prevent invention is quite simple, compact and highly integrated. In an inversion mode, the devices have different orientation channels, the GAA structure with the racetrack-shaped, high-k gate dielectric layer and metal gate, so as to achieve high carrier mobility, and prevent polysilicon gate depletion and short channel effects.

  • Publication number: 20110254013
    Abstract: A hybrid orientation accumulation mode GAA (Gate-All-Around) CMOSFET includes a PMOS region having a first channel, an NMOS region having a second channel and a gate region. The first channel and the second channel have a racetrack-shaped cross section and are formed of p-type Si(110) and n-type Si(100), respectively; the surfaces of the first channel and the second channel are substantially surrounded by the gate region; a buried oxide layer is disposed between the PMOS region and the NMOS region and between the PMOS or NMOS region and the Si substrate to isolate them from one another. The device structure according to the prevent invention is quite simple, compact and highly integrated. In an accumulation mode, current flows through the overall racetrack-shaped channel. The disclosed device results in high carrier mobility. Meanwhile polysilicon gate depletion and short channel effects are prevented, and threshold voltage is increased.

  • Publication number: 20110254099
    Abstract: A Ge and Si hybrid material accumulation mode GAA (Gate-All-Around) CMOSFET includes a PMOS region having a first channel, an NMOS region having a second channel and a gate region. The first channel and the second channel have a circular-shaped cross section and are formed of p-type Ge and n-type Si, respectively; the surfaces of the first channel and the second channel are substantially surrounded by the gate region; a buried oxide layer is disposed between the PMOS region and the NMOS region and between the PMOS or NMOS region and the Si substrate to isolate them from one another. In an accumulation mode, current flows through the overall cylindrical channel, so as to achieve high carrier mobility, reduce low-frequency noises, prevent polysilicon gate depletion and short channel effects and increase the threshold voltage of the device.
