Abstract: A microelectronic device provided with one or more quantum wires, able to form one or more transistor channels, and optimized in terms of arrangement, shape, and/or composition. A method for fabricating the device includes forming, in one or more thin layers resting on a support, a first block and a second block in which at least one transistor drain region and at least one transistor source region are respectively intended to be formed, forming a structure connecting the first block to the second block, and forming, on the surface of the structure, wires connecting a first region of the first block with another region of the second block that faces the first region.

Abstract: The invention relates to a field-effect microelectronic device, as well as the method of production thereof. The device includes a substrate as well as at least one improved structure capable of forming one or more transistor channels. This structure, formed by a plurality of bars stacked on the substrate, can make it possible to save space in the integration of field-effect transistors as well as to improve the performance thereof.

Abstract: A method of etching a sacrificial layer for a micro-machined structure, the sacrificial layer positioned between a layer of a first material and a layer of a second material, the etching being carried out by an etching agent. The method includes: providing at least one species having an affinity for the etching agent greater than that of the layers of first material and second material and less than or equal to that of the sacrificial layer; and then etching the sacrificial layer by the etching agent, the etching being carried out to eliminate at least partially the sacrificial layer and then to eliminate at least partially the species.

Abstract: The invention relates to a field-effect microelectronic device, and the production method thereof. Said device comprises a substrate (700) and at least one improved structure (702), capable of forming one or several transistor channels. Said structure, composed of several bars stacked on the substrate, may allow space saving in the integration of field-effect transistors and the performances thereof to be improved.

Abstract: The insulated-gate field-effect transistor includes a substrate surmounted by a layer of silicon-germanium alloy, the ratio of the germanium concentration to the silicon concentration of which increases towards the surface of the substrate. The transistor is formed on the active zone in the silicon-germanium alloy layer and lies between two isolating zones. The transistor includes a narrow heterostructure strained-semiconductor channel including a SiGe alloy layer in compression and a silicon layer in tension, extending between the gate and a dielectric block buried in the substrate.
