Abstract

For gate work function engineering required for ultrathin channel (UTC) double-gate (DG) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor (MOSFET), threshold voltage (Vth) tuning of self-aligned asymmetric (n+–p+) DG MOSFETs have been experimentally investigated in comparison with symmetric (n+–n+) DG MOSFETs. The vertical UTCs (12–32nm) were fabricated on bulk Si substrates by utilizing the novel ion-bombardment-retarded wet etching and the self-aligned asymmetric DGs were formed by employing the tilted ion implantation and anisotropic dry etching. The fabricated vertical asymmetric DG n-MOSFET with the gate length of 100nm clearly exhibits the desirable Vth of +0.1V, in addition to the unique DG MOSFET characteristics of the high short-channel-effect immunity with decreasing a channel thickness.
