    • An integrated circuit fabrication process is provided in which an interconnect having a least one vertical sidewall surface is formed. The interconnect thusly formed allows for higher packing density within the ensuring integrated circuit since the interconnect requires less space to accommodate the same current density as an interconnect having sloped (i.e., non-vertical) sidewall surfaces. A semiconductor topography is provided which includes transistors arranged upon and within a silicon-based substrate. A first interlevel dielectric is deposited across the semiconductor topography, and portions of the dielectric are removed to form vias to select portions of the transistors. Conductive plugs are formed exclusively within the vias. An insulating material patterned with vertical sidewall surfaces is then formed across the first interlevel dielectric and a portion of the plugs. The insulating material is then patterned. Conductive material is then deposited across the patterned insulating material, the plug upper surfaces, and the first interlevel dielectric. A portion of the conductive material is anisotropically removed to form interconnects which are laterally adjacent to the sidewall surfaces of the insulating material. Each interconnect includes two surfaces, one of which is vertical to the underlying topography and the other of which extends a distance from the fist surface and links with an upper region of the surface in an arcuate pattern. The first lateral surface of the interconnect is directly adjacent to a sidewall surface of the insulating material and is therefore intended to be vertical. The second lateral surface extends a distance from the first lateral surface, constrained the limitations of deposition and not lithography.
    • 提供一种集成电路制造工艺,其中形成具有至少一个垂直侧壁表面的互连。 这样形成的互连允许在确保集成电路内的更高的封装密度,因为互连需要更少的空间以适应与具有倾斜(即,非垂直)侧壁表面的互连件相同的电流密度。 提供半导体形貌,其包括布置在硅基衬底上和内部的晶体管。 第一层间电介质淀积跨半导体形貌,去除电介质的部分以形成通孔以选择晶体管的部分。 导电插头仅在通孔内形成。 然后,跨越第一层间电介质和一部分插塞形成图案化有垂直侧壁表面的绝缘材料。 然后将绝缘材料图案化。 导电材料然后沉积在图案化的绝缘材料,插塞上表面和第一层间电介质上。 导电材料的一部分被各向异性地去除以形成横向邻近绝缘材料的侧壁表面的互连。 每个互连包括两个表面,其中一个垂直于下面的地形,另一个表面与第一表面延伸一段距离,并以弓形图案与表面的上部区域连接。 互连的第一侧表面直接邻近绝缘材料的侧壁表面,因此意图是垂直的。 第二侧表面从第一侧表面延伸一段距离,限制了沉积的限制,而不是光刻。

    • A multi-dimensional transistor structure is fabricated which includes a base transistor substrate upon which transistors are formed. An elevated substrate is formed overlying the base transistor and having an oxide isolation formed in localized regions beneath the elevated substrate but overlying the base transistor substrate. A plurality of transistors are formed on a substrate wafer to form a base-level transistor formation. An intralevel dielectric (ILD) layer is deposited overlying the base-level transistor formation. Overlying the ILD layer, a "sandwich" structure is formed with the deposition of a first polysilicon layer, deposition of an oxide isolation layer, and deposition of a second polysilicon layer. The median oxide isolation layer is patterned and etched according to a localized oxide isolation mask in a configuration determined by the position of transistors in the base-level transistor formation and by the planned position of transistors, that are not yet formed, in an overlying elevated substrate level. The median oxide isolation layer is patterned and etched in a configuration so that isolation is achieved in a predetermined manner, for example, on an individual transistor basis, a transistor group basis, or the like. The resulting electronic integrated circuit structure is used for high speed circuit applications due to high packing densities and small distances between devices.

    • A method of establishing a differential threshold voltage during the fabrication of first and second IGFETs having like conductivity type is disclosed. A dopant is introduced into the gate electrode of each transistor of the pair. The dopant is differentially diffused into respective channel regions to provide a differential dopant concentration therebetween, which results in a differential threshold voltage between the two transistors. One embodiment includes introducing a diffusion-retarding material, such as nitrogen, into the first gate electrode before the dopant is diffused into the respective channel regions, and without introducing a significant amount of the diffusion-retarding material into the second gate electrode. Advantageously, a single dopant implant can provide both threshold voltage values. The two threshold voltages may be chosen to provide various combinations of enhancement mode and depletion mode IGFETs.

    • A method of making the IGFET includes providing a semiconductor substrate, providing a gate over the semiconductor substrate, implanting lightly doped source and drain regions into the substrate, forming a source-side spacer and a drain-side spacer in close proximity to opposing sidewalls of the gate, forming a masking layer that covers the drain-side spacer and includes an opening over the source-side spacer, removing the source-side spacer, and implanting a heavily doped drain region and an ultra-heavily doped source region into the substrate after removing the source-side spacer while the drain-side spacer is present, wherein the heavily doped drain region is implanted through the masking layer and the ultra-heavily doped source region is implanted through the opening in the masking layer. Accordingly, the ultra-heavily doped source region has a greater doping concentration than that of the heavily doped drain region due to the masking layer, and a portion of the lightly doped drain region is protected from the second source/drain implant step due to the drain-side spacer. Advantageously, the IGFET has low source-drain series resistance and reduces hot carrier effects.

    • Various processes are provided for producing a p-channel and/or n-channel transistor. The present processes are thereby applicable to NMOS, PMOS or CMOS integrated circuits, any of which derive a benefit from having an asymmetrical LDD structure. The asymmetrical structure can be produced on a p-channel or n-channel transistor in various ways. According, the present process employs various techniques to form an asymmetrical transistor. The various techniques employ processing steps which vary depending upon the LDD result desired. First, the LDD implant can be performed only in the drain-side of the channel, or in the drain-side as well as the source-side. Second, the gate conductor sidewall surface adjacent the drain can be made thicker than the sidewall surface adjacent the source. Thickening of the drain-side sidewall spacer can be achieved either by depositing oxide upon a nitride-bearing film, or by growing additional oxide upon an exposed silicon surface having the source-side sidewall protected from growth. Third, the drain-side can be enhanced relative to the source-side by using an LTA implant. There may be numerous other modifications and alternative processing steps, all of which are described herein. Regardless of the sequence chosen, a barrier implant may be employed to prevent deleterious ingress of p-type implant species into the channel region. The present fabrication sequence reduces source-side resistance to enhance drive current--a desirable outcome for high speed circuits.
    • 提供了用于产生p沟道和/或n沟道晶体管的各种工艺。 因此,本发明的方法可应用于NMOS,PMOS或CMOS集成电路,其中任何一种从具有不对称的LDD结构中获益。 可以以各种方式在p沟道或n沟道晶体管上产生非对称结构。 据此,本方法采用各种技术形成不对称晶体管。 各种技术采用根据​​所需LDD结果而变化的处理步骤。 首先,LDD注入仅能够在沟道的漏极侧,或者在漏极侧以及源极侧进行。 第二,与漏极相邻的栅极导体侧壁表面可以制成比邻近源极的侧壁表面更厚。 漏极侧壁间隔物的增厚可以通过在氮化物承载膜上沉积氧化物,或通过在具有源极侧壁保护生长的暴露的硅表面上生长另外的氧化物来实现。 第三,可以通过使用LTA植入物相对于源极侧的漏极侧增强。 可以存在许多其它修改和替代的处理步骤,其全部在此描述。 不管选择的顺序如何,可以使用阻挡植入物来防止p型植入物质进入通道区域的有害进入。 本制造顺序降低了源极电阻以增强驱动电流 - 高速电路的期望结果。

    • A three-dimensional integrated circuit and fabrication process is provided for producing active and passive devices on various levels of the integrated circuit. The present process is particularly suited to interconnecting a source of one transistor to a drain of another to form series-connected transistors often employed in core logic units. A junction of an underlying transistor can be connected to a junction of an overlying transistor, with both transistors separated by an interlevel dielectric. The lower transistor junction is connected to the upper level transistor junction using a plug conductor. The plug conductor and, more specifically, the mutually connected junction, is further coupled to a laterally extended interconnect. The interconnect extends from the mutual connection point of the plug conductor to a substrate of the overlying transistor. Accordingly, the source and substrate of the overlying transistor can be connected to a drain of the underlying transistor to not only achieve series-connection but also to connect the source and substrate of an internally configured transistor for the purpose of reducing body effects.
