An erasable nanocellulose electronic structure comprising a nanocellulose sheet, a metal contact on the nanocellulose sheet, a layer of solder on the metal contact, and a surface mount device to the contact.

Abstract: High breakdown voltage devices are provided. In one aspect, a method of forming a device having a VTFET and a LDVTFET includes: forming a LDD in an LDVTFET region; patterning fin(s) in a VTFET region to a depth D1; patterning fin(s) in the LDVTFET region, through the LDD, to a depth D2>D1; forming bottom source/drains at a base of the VTFET/LDVTFET fins; burying the VTFET/LDVTFET fins in a gap fill dielectric; recessing the gap fill dielectric to full expose the VTFET fin(s) and partially expose the LDVTFET fin(s); forming bottom spacers directly on the bottom source/drains in the VTFET region and directly on the gap fill dielectric in the LDVTFET region; forming gates alongside the VTFET/LDVTFET fins; forming top spacers above the gates; and forming top source/drains above the top spacers. A one-step fin etch and devices having VTFET and long channel VTFETs are also provided.

Abstract: Techniques for providing a high temperature soft mask for semiconductor devices are described. In an embodiment, spin coating semiconductor device components with organic planarization material having a defined aromatic content aromatic content to provide an organic planarization layer. The method can further comprise ultra-fast annealing the organic planarization layer and forming an implanted or doped region in the semiconductor device. Three-dimensional FinFET components of a device can be spin coated with organic planarization material having high aromatic content, with the device cured at a first temperature. The organic planarization layer can be ultra-fast annealed at a second temperature that is greater than the first temperature. Aspects can include patterning the device, and forming an implanted or doped region in a semiconductor device.

Abstract: A method of forming a nanosheet device is provided. The method includes forming a nanosheet channel layer stack and dummy gate structure on a substrate. The method further includes forming a curved recess in the substrate surface adjacent to the nanosheet channel layer stack. The method further includes depositing a protective layer on the curved recess, dummy gate structure, and exposed sidewall surfaces of the nanosheet layer stack, and removing a portion of the protective layer on the curved recess to form a downward-spiked ridge around the rim of the curved recess. The method further includes extending the curved recess deeper into the substrate to form an extended recess, and forming a sacrificial layer at the surface of the extended recess in the substrate.

Abstract: A method for forming a device with multiple gate lengths includes forming a gate stack on vertical fins. A cutting mask formed on the gate stack is etched to include two or more different heights. Gate structures with two or more gate lengths are etched by employing the two or more different heights in the cutting mask as an etch mask. The cutting mask is removed. A top source/drain regions is formed on top of the vertical fins.
