  • Publication number: 20220199472
    Abstract: Integrated circuitry comprising high voltage (HV) and low voltage (LV) ribbon or wire (RoW) transistor stack structures. In some examples, a gate electrode of the HV and LV transistor stack structures may include the same work function metal. A metal oxide may be deposited around one or more channels of the HV transistor stack, thereby altering the dipole properties of the gate insulator stack from those of the LV transistor stack structure.

  • Publication number: 20210408289
    Abstract: A transistor structure includes a first channel layer over a second channel layer, where the first and the second channel layers include monocrystalline silicon. An epitaxial source material is coupled to a first end of the first and second channel layers. An epitaxial drain material is coupled to a second end of the first and second channel layers, a gate electrode is between the epitaxial source material and the epitaxial drain material, and around the first channel layer and around the second channel layer. The transistor structure further includes a first gate dielectric layer between the gate electrode and each of the first channel layer and the second channel layer, where the first gate dielectric layer has a first dielectric constant. A second gate dielectric layer is between the first gate dielectric layer and the gate electrode, where the second gate dielectric layer has a second dielectric constant.

  • Patent number: 10553723
    Abstract: A method is provided of fabricating a microelectronic device including a semiconductor structure provided with semiconductor bars positioned above one another, the method including the following steps: creating, on a substrate, a stacked structure including an alternation of first bars containing a first material and having a first critical dimension and second bars containing a second material, the second material being a semiconductor, the second bars having a second critical dimension greater than the first critical dimension, then, surface doping protruding lateral portions of the second bars before forming a source and drain block on the portions.
