Publication number: 20240395802Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a base structure, a first portion, a second portion and a first stack. The first portion and the second portion are disposed on the base structure and are respectively made of a first semiconductor material and a second semiconductor material which has a conductivity type opposite to that of the first semiconductor material. The first stack is disposed on the base structure and between the first portion and the second portion. The first stack includes a plurality of first semiconductor regions and a plurality of first dielectric regions disposed to alternate with the first semiconductor regions, such that each of the first semiconductor regions and the first dielectric regions extends between the first portion and the second portion. The first semiconductor regions has a dopant concentration which is lower than that of each of the first portion and the second portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2023Publication date: November 28, 2024Applicant: TAIWAN SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Dai-Yan WU, Yu-Chiun LIN, Po-Nien CHEN, Hsiao-Han LIU, Chih-Yung LIN
