Abstract: Described herein are transistor devices formed using perovskite gate dielectrics. In one example, a transistor includes a high-k perovskite dielectric material between a gate electrode and a thin film semiconductor channel. In another example, four-terminal transistor includes a semiconductor channel, a gate stack that includes a perovskite dielectric layer on one side of the channel, and a body electrode on an opposite side of the channel. The body electrode adjusts a threshold voltage of the transistor.

Abstract: Described herein are IC devices that include molybdenum or a molybdenum compound, such as compounds including oxygen or nitrogen. The molybdenum may be deposited at a high concentration, e.g., at least 50% atomic density. Also described herein are mid-valent molybdenum precursors for depositing molybdenum, and reactions for producing the mid-valent molybdenum precursors. For example, the molybdenum precursors may be generated by reacting a higher-valent molybdenum compound with an amidinate or a formamidinate.

Abstract: Described herein are integrated circuit devices formed using perovskite materials. Perovskite materials with a similar crystal structure and different electrical properties can be layered to realize a transistor or memory device. In some embodiments, a ferroelectric perovskite can be incorporated into a device with other perovskite films to form a ferroelectric memory device.

Abstract: Described herein are integrated circuit devices with conductive regions formed from MX or MAX materials. MAX materials are layered, hexagonal carbides and nitrides that include an early transition metal (M) and an A group element (A). MX materials remove the A group element. MAX and MX materials are highly conductive, and their two-dimensional layer structure allows very thin layers to be formed. MAX or MX materials can be used to form several conductive elements of IC circuits, including contacts, interconnects, or liners or barrier regions for contacts or interconnects.

Abstract: Metallization interconnect structures, integrated circuit devices, and methods related to high aspect ratio interconnects are discussed. A self assembled monolayer is selectively formed on interlayer dielectric sidewalls of an opening that exposes an underlying metallization structure. A first metal is formed on the underlying metallization structure and within only a bottom portion of the self assembled monolayer. The exposed portion of the self assembled monolayer is removed and a second metal is formed over the first metal.

Abstract: A metal chalcogenide material layer of lower quality provides a transition between a metal chalcogenide material layer of higher quality and a gate insulator material that separates the metal chalcogenide material layers from a gate electrode of a metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) structure. Gate insulator material may be more readily initiated and/or or precisely controlled to a particular thickness when formed on lower quality metal chalcogenide material. Accordingly, such a material stack may be integrated into a variety of transistor structures, including multi-gate, multi-channel nanowire or nanosheet transistor structures.

Abstract: Adjacent interconnect lines are in staggered, vertically spaced positions, which accordingly reduces their capacitive coupling within one level of interconnect metallization. Short and tall interconnect via openings are landed on the vertically staggered interconnect lines. Cap material selectively deposited upon upper ones of the staggered interconnect lines limits over etch of the short vias while the tall vias are advanced toward lower ones of the staggered interconnect lines. The via openings of differing depth may be filled, for example with a single damascene metallization process that defines a co-planar top surface for all via metallization over the staggered, vertically spaced interconnect lines.

Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a lower and upper device portions including bodies of semiconductor material extending horizontally between first source and drain regions in a spaced-apart vertical stack. A first gate structure is around a body in the lower device portion and includes a first gate electrode and a first gate dielectric. A second gate structure is around a body in the upper device portion and includes a second gate electrode and a second gate dielectric, where the first gate dielectric is compositionally distinct from the second gate dielectric. In some embodiments, a dipole species has a first concentration in the first gate dielectric and a different second concentration in the second gate dielectric. A method of fabrication is also disclosed.

Abstract: Techniques are provided herein to form semiconductor devices having an epi region contact with a high contact area to either or both top and bottom epi regions in a stacked transistor configuration. In one example, two different semiconductor devices include an n-channel device located vertically above a p-channel device (or vice versa). Source or drain regions are adjacent to both ends of the n-channel device and the p-channel device, such that a source or drain region of one device is located vertically over the source or drain region of the other device. A contact structure may be formed that has a greater width when contacting a top surface of the bottom source or drain region than when contacting a side surface of the top source or drain region. The higher contact area on the bottom source or drain region provides a lower contact resistance compared to previous architectures.

Abstract: Described herein are integrated circuit devices with source and drain (S/D) contacts with barrier regions. The S/D contacts conduct current to and from semiconductor devices, e.g., to the source and drain regions of a transistor. The barrier regions are formed between the S/D region and an inner conductive structure and reduce the Schottky barrier height between the S/D region and the contact. The barrier regions may include one or more carbon layers and one or more metal layers. A metal layer may include niobium, tantalum, aluminum, or titanium.

Abstract: A memory structure includes conductive lines extending horizontally in a spaced apart fashion within a vertical stack above a base or substrate. The vertical stack includes a plurality of conductive lines, the first and second conductive lines being part of the plurality. A gate structure extends vertically through the first and second conductive lines. The gate structure includes a body of semiconductor material and a dielectric, where the dielectric is between the body and the conductive lines. An isolation material is on at least one side of the vertical stack and in contact with the conductive lines. The vertical stack defines a void located vertically between at the first and second conductive lines in the vertical stack and laterally between the gate structure and the isolation material. The void may extend along a substantial length (e.g., 20 nm or more) of the first and second conductive lines.
