INCREASED CONTACT AREA FOR FINFETS |
摘要 |
A method for forming fin field effect transistors includes epitaxially growing source and drain (S/D) regions on fins, the S/D regions including a diamond-shaped cross section and forming a dielectric liner over the S/D regions. A dielectric fill is etched over the S/D regions to expose a top portion of the diamond-shaped cross section. The fins are recessed into the diamond-shaped cross section. A top portion of the diamond-shaped cross section of the S/D regions is exposed. A contact liner is formed on the top portion of the diamond-shaped cross section of the S/D regions and in a recess where the fins were recessed. Contacts are formed over surfaces of the top portion and in the recess. |

1. A method for forming fin field effect transistors, comprising:
epitaxially growing source and drain (S/D) regions on fins, the S/D regions including a diamond-shaped cross section; forming a dielectric liner over the S/D regions; etching a dielectric fill formed over the S/D regions to expose a top portion of the diamond-shaped cross section; recessing the fins into the diamond-shaped cross section; exposing an outer surface of the diamond-shaped cross section of the S/D regions; forming a contact liner on the exposed outer surface of the diamond-shaped cross section of the S/D regions and in a recess where the fins were recessed; and forming contacts over surfaces of the top portion and in the recess. |
