20080311720 | Short channel effect of MOS devices by retrograde well engineering using tilted dopant implantation into recessed source/drain regions - A method of forming a transistor comprising: defining undercut recesses in the substrate at the source/drain regions thereof, the undercut recesses extending beneath the gate electrode; creating a halo implant region beneath the gate electrode between the recesses; and providing raised source/drain structures in the undercut recesses after creating the halo implant region. | 12-18-2008 |
20090189193 | SELECTIVE SPACER FORMATION ON TRANSISTORS OF DIFFERENT CLASSES ON THE SAME DEVICE - A method of selectively forming a spacer on a first class of transistors and devices formed by such methods. The method can include depositing a conformal first deposition layer on a substrate with different classes of transistors situated thereon, depositing a blocking layer to at least one class of transistors, dry etching the first deposition layer, removing the blocking layer, depositing a conformal second deposition layer on the substrate, dry etching the second deposition layer and wet etching the remaining first deposition layer. Devices may include transistors of a first class with larger spacers compared to spacers of transistors of a second class. | 07-30-2009 |
20090242998 | PENETRATING IMPLANT FOR FORMING A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A semiconductor device and method to form a semiconductor device is described. The semiconductor includes a gate stack disposed on a substrate. Tip regions are disposed in the substrate on either side of the gate stack. Halo regions are disposed in the substrate adjacent the tip regions. A threshold voltage implant region is disposed in the substrate directly below the gate stack. The concentration of dopant impurity atoms of a particular conductivity type is approximately the same in both the threshold voltage implant region as in the halo regions. The method includes a dopant impurity implant technique having sufficient strength to penetrate a gate stack. | 10-01-2009 |
