摘要： A process for forming salicided CMOS devices, and non-salicide CMOS devices, on the same semiconductor substrate, using only one silicon nitride layer to provide a component for a composite spacer on the sides of the salicided CMOS devices, and to provide a blocking shape during metal silicide formation, for the non-salicided CMOS devices, has been developed. The process features the use of a disposable organic spacer, on the sides of polysilicon gate structures, used to define the heavily doped source/drain regions, for all CMOS devices. A silicon nitride layer, obtained via LPCVD procedures, at a temperature between 800 to 900° C., is then deposited and patterned to provide the needed spacer, on the sides of the CMOS devices experiencing the salicide process, while the same silicon nitride layer is used to provide the blocking shape needed to prevent metal suicide formation for the non-salicided CMOS devices.

摘要： A new method of fabricating shallow trench isolations has been achieved. A silicon dioxide layer is formed overlying a semiconductor substrate. A silicon nitride layer is deposited overlying the silicon dioxide layer. The silicon nitride layer is patterned to expose the semiconductor substrate where shallow trench isolations are planned. Ions are implanted into the exposed semiconductor substrate. The implanting damages any passive surface materials overlying the semiconductor substrate. The exposed semiconductor substrate is etched down to form trenches. The damaged passive surface materials are removed during the etching down to thereby prevent trench cone formation. A trench filling layer is deposited to fill the trenches. The trench filling layer is polished down to complete the shallow trench isolations in the manufacture of the integrated circuit device.

摘要： A new method of forming metal interconnects with air gaps between adjacent interconnects in the manufacture of an integrated circuit device is achieved. A semiconductor substrate is provided. The metal interconnects are formed overlying the semiconductor substrate. A silicon nitride liner layer is deposited. A gap filling oxide layer is deposited to fill gaps between adjacent metal interconnects. The gap filling oxide layer is polished down to the silicon nitride liner layer. A silicon nitride thin layer is deposited. The silicon nitride thin layer is patterned using an oversized, reverse mask of the metal interconnects. The patterning of the silicon nitride thin layer creates openings to thereby expose a portion of the gap filling oxide. The gap filling oxide layer is etched away. A self-sealing oxide layer is deposited overlying the silicon nitride thin layer and the silicon nitride liner layer. The self-sealing oxide layer seals over the gaps between the silicon nitride thin layer and the silicon nitride liner layer to thereby form permanent air gaps between the adjacent metal interconnects, and the integrated circuit is completed.

摘要： A new method is provided for the integration of the of T-top gate process. Active regions are defined and bounded by STI's on the surface of a substrate. The pad oxide is removed from the substrate and replaced by a layer of SAC oxide. A thin layer of nitride is deposited that covers the surface of the created layer of SAC oxide and the surface of the STI regions. A layer of TEOS is deposited and etched defining the regions where the gate electrodes need to be formed. Gate spacers are next formed on the sidewalls of the openings that have been created in the layer of TEOS. The required implants (such as channel implant and threshold implant) are performed, the gate structure is then grown in the openings that have been created in the layer of TEOS. After the gate structure has been completed, the surface of the created structure is polished and the remaining layer of TEOS is removed. Source and drain regions implants can now be performed, LDD regions are implanted using a tilted implant. This tilted implant penetrates underneath the body of the created gate structures thereby creating the LDD regions. The removal of the layer of TEOS leaves in place the gate structures, one such structure is located in the active region of the surface of the substrate, two additional structures that have been created on the surface of the STI regions.

摘要： A method for anisotropically etching a partially manufactured semiconductor structure, more specifically, a stacked FET gate structure containing a bottom anti-reflective coating (Barc) layer is described. The structure is covered with a photoresist layer which is patterned to defines the gate region. The processing chemistry is predominantly carbon tetrafluoride, (CF4) with the inclusion of chlorine (Cl2) where fluorine (F) is generated in the plasma as the etchant for the structure. During processing, the wafer is cooled with helium (He) that lowers the wafer temperature and promotes sidewall deposition from the fluorine species which acts as a passivation layer producing a anisotropic or vertical etch profile. The process reduces etch time and results in very repeatable end point control of the Bark etch and poly cap etch improving the control of the structure critical dimensions and improving process throughput. The reduction in the use of fluorine based species reduces any potential environmental impact.

摘要： A method for providing a route for the synthesis of a Ge(0) nanometer-sized material from. A Ge(II) precursor is dissolved in a ligand heated to a temperature, generally between approximately 100° C. and 400° C., sufficient to thermally reduce the Ge(II) to Ge(0), where the ligand is a compound that can bond to the surface of the germanium nanomaterials to subsequently prevent agglomeration of the nanomaterials. The ligand encapsulates the surface of the Ge(0) material to prevent agglomeration. The resulting solution is cooled for handling, with the cooling characteristics useful in controlling the size and size distribution of the Ge(0) materials. The characteristics of the Ge(II) precursor determine whether the Ge(0) materials that result will be nanocrystals or nanowires.
