DOPANT DIFFUSION BARRIER TO FORM ISOLATED SOURCE/DRAINS IN A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
Approaches for isolating source and drain regions in an integrated circuit (IC) device (e.g., a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET)) are provided. Specifically, the device comprises a gate structure formed over a substrate, a source and drain (S/D) embedded within the substrat...

Zusammenfassung: | Approaches for isolating source and drain regions in an integrated circuit (IC) device (e.g., a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET)) are provided. Specifically, the device comprises a gate structure formed over a substrate, a source and drain (S/D) embedded within the substrate adjacent the gate structure, and a liner layer (e.g., silicon-carbon) between the S/D and the substrate. In one approach, the liner layer is formed atop the S/D as well. As such, the liner layer formed in the junction prevents dopant diffusion from the source/drain. |
