This invention relates, in general, to semiconductor devices and a method for forming thereof, and, more particularly, to semiconductor devices with dual gates and a method for forming thereof.
Polysilicon has traditionally been used as the gate electrode for MOS transistors. The polysilicon electrode is typically doped either P+ or N+ to match the doping of the source and drain regions in CMOS technology. As device dimensions shrink, however, problems exist with using polysilicon as a gate electrode. For example, as the dimensions of the P+ doped polysilicon gate electrode decrease, boron can penetrate from the polysilicon gate electrodes through the gate dielectric and decrease the reliability of the device. In addition, as dimensions shrink for both P+ and N+ doped polysilicon, doping concentrations increase. High temperature processes are performed in order to drive the dopants into the gate electrode. Due to scaling, the source and drain are shallower. Disadvantageously, the high temperature process can cause the source and drain to become deeper. If the high temperature is not performed, however, the dopants are more likely to reside away from the gate dielectric. Hence, there will be an area of the gate electrode that is not doped. This polydepletion effect will act as an additional capacitance in series with the gate dielectric capacitance. In other words, it will undesirably increase the effective oxide thickness of the transistor. The polydepletion effect was not a significant effect in older technology, because the thickness of the polydepletion area was small compared to the gate dielectric effective thickness.
One solution is to use a material which has a work function approximately equal to the work function of either P doped or N doped silicon. P doped silicon has a work function of approximately 4.1 eV whereas N doped silicon has a work function of approximately 5.2 eV. The difficulty is to choose a material which is suitable to both these values. Another option is to use two different materials where one would be approximately equal to the work function of N doped silicon and the other approximately equal to the work function of P doped silicon. It is difficult to find two different materials with different work functions that have the chemical and thermo-stability necessary to be incorporated into a CMOS process flow. Therefore a need exists to find gate materials that are suitable for scaled devices.
The present invention is illustrated by way of example and not limitation in the accompanying figures, in which like references indicate similar elements, and in which:
FIG. 1 includes an illustration of a cross-sectional view of a portion of a semiconductor device substrate after forming gate dielectric and metal gate electrode layers.
FIG. 2 includes an illustration of a cross-sectional view of a portion of a semiconductor device substrate after patterning the metal gate layer.
FIG. 3 includes an illustration of a cross-sectional view of the substrate of FIG. 2 after forming a polysilicon layer.
FIG. 4 includes an illustration of a cross-sectional view of the substrate of FIG. 3 after patterning the polysilicon metal gate and gate dielectric layers.
FIG. 5 includes an illustration of a cross-sectional view of the substrate of FIG. 4 after forming a substantially completed device.
Skilled artisans appreciate that elements in the figures are illustrated for simplicity and clarity and have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements in the figures may be exaggerated relative to other elements to help improve the understanding of the embodiments of the present invention.
The conduction band for silicon lies at 4.1 eV below the vacuum level. The valence band lies approximately 1.1 eV below the conduction band for silicon or at 5.2 eV below the vacuum level. The approximate 1.1 eV difference between the valence and conduction bands of silicon is referred to as the band-gap. The mid-gap is approximately half of the band-gap and is approximately halfway between the conduction and valance bands of the material. A desirable work function for gate electrodes of N channel transistors is one which falls between the conduction band and mid-gap of the semiconductor substrate. A more desirable work function for N channel transistors is additionally at least 0.2 eV from the mid-gap. In other words, the more desirable work function for N channel transistor is between approximately 4.1 and 4.5 eV below vacuum level. A desirable work function for gate electrodes of P channel transistors is one which falls between the valence band and the mid-gap of the semiconductor substrate. A more desirable work function for P channel transistors is additionally at least 0.2 eV from the mid-gap or between approximately 4.9 and 5.2 eV below vacuum level.
FIG. 1 illustrates trench 20 within semiconductor substrate 10 to isolate the subsequently formed transistors. In a preferred embodiment, trench 20 is a shallow trench isolation region. Traditional etch and deposition processes for forming trench 20, as known to one skilled in the art are used. Semiconductor substrate 10 can be monocrystalline silicon, silicon germanium, gallium arsenic, silicon on insulator (SOI), or the like. In a first embodiment, semiconductor substrate 10 is P doped silicon. Silicon can be doped P type by doping the silicon with boron. In this embodiment, well 30 is an N doped well. Well 30 can be doped N type by implanting arsenic, phosphorous or the like. Gate dielectric 40 is formed over semiconductor substrate 10. In one embodiment gate dielectric 40 is SiO2. In this embodiment, the gate dielectric 40 is thermally grown to a thickness of approximately 15 to 50 Angstroms. One of ordinary skill in the art realizes as devices shrink the SiO2 thickness may decrease below 15 Angstroms. In an alternate embodiment, gate dielectric 40 can be an oxide, especially a metal oxide, such as HfO2, ZrO2, Al2O3, La2O3, combinations thereof, or the like. If gate dielectric 40 is a metal oxide, it will typically be in the thickness of approximately 5-100 Angstroms, or more preferably less than 25 Angstroms. If gate dielectric 40 is a metal oxide, atomic layer deposition (ALD), chemical vapor deposition (CVD), physical vapor deposition (PVD), combinations thereof, or the like can be used for deposition.
Afterwards, metal gate layer 50 is deposited using ALD, CVD, PVD, combinations thereof, or the like. Metal gate layer 50 can be tantalum silicon nitride (TaSiN), platinum, ruthenium oxide, molybdenum nitride, tungsten silicon nitride, tantalum nitride, molybdenum silicon nitride, titanium silicon nitride, and tungsten nitride. Tantalum silicon nitride has been shown to be a suitable material for NMOS devices, and platinum and tungsten nitride for PMOS devices. In the preferred embodiment where metal gate layer 50 is TaSiN, the silicon or nitrogen concentration can be adjusted to change the work function of this material. For example increasing the concentration of silicon will decrease the work function of this material to approximately 4.4 eV. Increasing the concentration of nitrogen is directly proportional to the work function. Thus increasing the nitrogen concentration can result in a work function of approximately 4.8 eV.
Turning to FIG. 2, semiconductor substrate 10 is patterned and metal gate layer 50 is etched. Metal gate layer 50 remains over the portion of semiconductor substrate that contains well 30. Metal gate layer 50 may also remain over a significant portion of trench 20. Etching chemistry similar to those used for etching polysilicon can be used for forming metal gate layer 50. Halogen-based chemistries such as carbon tetrafluoride (CF4), hexafluoroethane (C2F6), hydrogen bromide (HBr), sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), hydrogen chloride (HCl), molecular chlorine (Cl2), or the like can be used during plasma etching, reactive ion etching, electron cyclotron resonance etching or microwave etching. After metal gate layer 50 has been patterned the photoresist layer is removed using conventional methods, such as exposing the photoresist to an oxygen-containing environment. Metal gate layer 50 is approximately greater than or equal to 50 Angstroms. Typically, the etch is performed using endpoint detection. A timed etched can also be performed.
Turning to FIG. 3, second gate electrode 60 is formed. In the first embodiment, second gate electrode 60 is a doped silicon layer. Silicon gate 60 includes deposited amorphous silicon or polysilicon and is doped either in situ or during a separate doping step. In this particular embodiment the thickness of second gate electrode 60 is approximately 1000-2000 Angstroms thick. Optionally, an antireflective coating (ARC) can be formed over doped silicon layer 60.
A photoresist layer is deposited over doped silicon layer 60. The same etched chemistries and processes used to previously etch metal gate layer 50 can be used to etch second gate electrode 60 and metal gate layer 50. If gate dielectric 40 is SiO2, a wet etch of dilute HF can be used. Typically the concentration of water to HF is 100:1. If gate dielectric 40 is a metal oxide, HF or phosphoric acid is used. The resulting structure is shown in FIG. 4 with metal gate layer and second gate electrode 60 forming a metal/gate or gate stack. If second gate electrode 60 is silicon then the stack is a metal/silicon gate stack. In one embodiment the metal/silicon gate stack is a tantalum silicon nitride gate portion over a silicon gate portion.
Processing continues to form the rest of the semiconductor device as illustrated in FIG. 5. Source and drain 80 are formed during ion implantation. In this first embodiment, source and drain 80 will be N doped, whereas source and drain 81 will be P doped. Spacers 70 are formed surrounding the gate electrodes and gate dielectric. Typically the spacers are formed of nitride. CMOS processing, known to one of ordinary skill in the art, is continued from this point.
Although the first embodiment invention has been described with respect to specific doping types, skilled artisans appreciate that doping types may be reversed. For example, semiconductor substrate 10 can be N doped and well 30 can be P doped. In this case, the silicon electrode will be over the P doped well and the metal/silicon stack electrode will be over the N doped region.
In the second embodiment, a stack consisting of a semiconductor material and a metal will be formed over the P type substrate or a P well, and a semiconductor gate will be formed over an N well. This can be performed by making semiconductor substrate 10 N doped and well 30 P doped. Or if the semiconductor substrate 10 is P type, the metal/silicon stack will be formed over semiconductor substrate 10 and the gate electrode alone will be formed over well 30. In this embodiment the semiconductor electrode is P doped silicon germanium. All etch and formation processing that has been discussed in regards to the first embodiment can be used in the second embodiment.
It is advantageous to use a metal electrode for either an N channel or P channel transistors and a silicon electrode for the other. This allows the reuse of silicon processes and tools that are already established in the semiconductor field. In addition, it eliminates the necessity to find two different materials with good chemical and thermo-stability with desirable work functions for N channel and P channel transistors. Furthermore, one material with the two different work functions is not needed.
In the foregoing specification, the invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments. However, one of ordinary skill in the art appreciates that various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention as set forth in the claims below. Accordingly, the specification and figures are to be regarded in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense, and all such modifications are intended to be included within the scope of present invention.
Benefits, other advantages, and solutions to problems have been described above with regard to specific embodiments. However, the benefits, advantages, solutions to problems, and any element(s) that may cause any benefit, advantage, or solution to occur or become more pronounced are not to be construed as a critical, required, or essential feature or element of any or all the claims. As used herein, the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

Boundless Forces: Nina Ozbey & Robert Stuart (learn more here)
Nina Ozbey's work is about spontaneity, about opening herself up to the unexpected. In this ongoing series of non-objective paintings, she relinquishes subject matter to explore composition, color and line, blending elements of design with intuition. The process of putting paint onto canvas or paper, and the choices that unfold as each work builds and evolves are Ozbey's main interest. As Ozbey explains, Working off the first brushstroke, which often that dictates the rest of the work, I take pleasure in making marks, observing how each stroke relates to and energizes the next. The paintings are records of my brushes' actions, webs of gestures that I hope embrace something raw and unseen.Ozbey's paintings tend to reveal the season they were painted in as the ambient light and surroundings slip into and influence the consciousness of her work.
Nina Ozbey began her studies at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK, later receiving her Masters of Education at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville. She has taught art throughout her career, while studying independently to advance her own artistic direction and skills. Ozbey is a fellow at the VCCA and has participated in art residencies at Hambige in Georgia as well. Her work has been curated into numerous exhibitions nationwide, and is included in the Emily Couric Cancer Center, University of Virginia Hospital, and Martha Jefferson Hospital collections in Charlottesville, Va., as well as private collections in Florida, New York, North Carolina, Texas, and Virginia, as well as England and Turkey.

My art is grounded in a love and appreciation of rural life and the work is an expression of those feelings, hopes and fondest memories. I am attracted to everyday subjects that affect the quality of the vast sky, moving water, rustling trees, and the quiet of meadows. and this has been my focus recently. I am captivated by how light plays on the subject, as well as the ever changing shadows, colors, and shapes that occur as the day progresses. The intent is to create a sense of peace, serenity and resolve for both myself and the viewer.I work with a limited color palette of 4-6 oil paints. Multiple layers of paint are applied to canvas and allowed to dry between each application, creating a depth of richness and atmospheric intensity.Listening to the sounds of nature, experiencing the changing light of day, and seeing all the beauty that surrounds us helps me continue to evolve and enjoy this magnificent world, experiencing it through art.Jeanette Cohen pursued a degree at the University of Missouri before studying painting independently under Charles Kello, Anne McNalley, James Warwick Jones and Karen Blair. She has exhibited her paintings in private galleries and in solo, group and juried shows throughout the east coast.

My interest and focus is in making art spontaneously, but with the conscious objective of self understanding and healing. As a professional art therapist I find that using art as therapy is a highly effective way to explore untapped personal creativity and expand ones greater awareness of the self and the world. In my own paintings, and in helping to draw out ideas in the artwork of my clients, I look to transform outward forces into individual language, to borrow content from those forces, abstract their hidden powers and turn them into expressive play.

Tranquil varied garden in fabulous position, with a superb collection of tender and exotic plants
On its own peninsula with ever-changing views of the estuary of the River Fal, Trelissick has one of the most amazing natural settings in the country.
There are more than 12 hectares (30 acres) of elevated garden to explore, with twisting paths that lead you through significant collections of hydrangeas, rhododendrons, camellias, ginger lilies and year-round exciting woodland plants.
As well as the garden, the 121-hectare (300-acre) estate, with its countryside, woodlands and coast, makes for breathtaking walks.
As well as the garden and countryside Trelissick has its own renowned art gallery with a wide range of work from local Cornish artists. Why not drop into Crofters café which offers a delicious range of light refreshments, hot luncheons and afternoon cream teas using seasonal and local produce. Trelissick also has a gift shop, second-hand bookshop and six of the best National Trust holiday cottages located around the Trelissick estate.
The Garden
April and May are the most dramatic time of year in the garden as Rhododendrons, azaleas, camellias and flowering cherries all burst into life above a carpet of daffodils and native wild flowers to magnificent effect, aided in part by the mild maritime climate afforded by the river Fal, which flanks the garden on three sides. The Garden itself is around 40 acres and contains within it areas of informal woodland planting, wild flower banks, formal lawns, dramatic exotic borders, 7 acres of arboretum and an orchard containing over 70 varieties of local Cornish apples.

Jayalalithaa says mood of people is against DPA
Asks police not to succumb to pressure from Government "DMK has decided to win elections by unleashing violence"
CHENNAI: All-India Anna Dravdia Munnetra Kazhagam general secretary Jayalalithaa on Tuesday urged higher police officials in the State to act impartially, without "succumbing to pressure" from the ruling Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam, in the local body elections.
Launching her campaign for the candidates of the AIADMK-led Democratic People's Alliance for the Corporation of Chennai, she said as the mood of the people in the State was against the DMK, the ruling party appeared to have decided to win the civic elections by "unleashing violence."
Making it clear that she would not ask the police to act in favour of the AIADMK-led alliance, Ms. Jayalalithaa urged them to discharge their duties impartially. She also assured them that any "penal action" by the DMK Government for performing their role fairly in the local body poll would be revoked when the AIADMK came back to power.
She flayed the Government for adopting an "ostrich-in-the-sand attitude" in tackling chikungunya, which had so far claimed 293 lives in the State. She charged the DMK Government with failing to get the special package provided by the Centre, owing to its claim that there were no deaths due to chikungunya in the State. She also criticised Union Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss for "repeating the DMK Government's claim" in this regard.
Ms. Jayalalithaa said all the 13 Union Ministers from Tamil Nadu owed an explanation to the people as to why the United Progressive Alliance Government, of which the DMK is a constituent, had not taken steps to roll back the price of petrol and diesel, though the price of crude oil in the international market had come down from Rs. 3510 in July last to Rs. 2700 last month.
She accused the DMK Government of not taking steps to control the price of essential articles. The prices of grocery items, edible oil and construction materials, including cement and sand, had gone up steeply during the last five months.
She urged the people to make use of the opportunity provided by the local body elections "to teach a fitting lesson to the minority DMK Government," which had been trying to "hoodwink the electorate with schemes that were not viable." General secretary of the Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam Vaiko said law and order had deteriorated under the DMK rule. Leaders of other partners of the alliance also addressed the meeting.

Amat sketches out the plot in the barest terms: A Spanish woman named Mona, nicknamed Rat, has followed her journalist lover, Wilson Cervantes, to his ancestral village, Bahía Negra. There, the two "lost, forgotten castaways" hide outon the run from civilization, but also from the dangerous enemies Wilson has crossed in his articles. He drinks, drifts, and waits for the worst, scribbling away unsuccessfully at a novel. Meanwhile Rat withdraws into silence, becoming ever more bewitched by the mysteries of the forest that encloses them: its spirits and spells, the hidden cocaine facilities buried deep within, and the competing campsnarcotraffickers, guerrillas, paramilitary soldiersin a war that threatens them all. Her mind begins to bend with fatigue and foreboding; her identity is stripped to its essence. "I saw my face in my words," Rat shudders. "Words of a nobody."
And yet, as the terror draws nearer to their doorstep, Rat is held in thrall by the embattled lives of the villagers around her, the "damned and displaced" of Colombia's violent backlands. Amat's book is a paranoid fever dream of a peasant novelheir to those of Rulfo and Fanon, but also Lispectorfiltered through the gaze of her doomed outsider. Just listen to Amat's enigmatic language, and feel the explosive tension of this world: "At night the forest has its own light that can be glimpsed in brief flashes. The forest is like a blind woman with memories."

Why can't I set different endpoints for different service configurations? When I change the Service Configuration to Local I get a warning saying that I can only change the Endpoints for all configurations
If it's not possible to do right now, I don't see why it couldn't be added in the next releases of the Windows Azure SDKs.
My current scenario is that I only want to enable HTTPS on the cloud where I have a valid certificate, but for my local dev I want to enable both HTTP and HTTPS so I can troubleshoot accordingly. The only work around I found is to manually modify the endpoints
before deploying, which is very prone to user error.
From my experience, the endpoints are defined in csdef files. Currently Windows Azure only support separate cscfg files for local and cloud environment. For csdef, we have to use a single version for both local and cloud.

We already know they are capable of cheating.
So I wasn't surprised to hear of USC's obvious underhanded dealings in hiring Steve Sarkisian.
They didn't hire the guy because he can beat UCLA coach Jim Mora, because he hasn't.
He's already 0-1 against Notre Dame as well. And most Trojans honks sound as if the school could have done better.
But I understand what USC is doing and immediately warned Mora.
"So does this mean you're going to stay away from Hugh Millen over the next day or two?" I cautioned via text.
Mora got right back to me.
"That's probably a good idea."
The last time Mora went on the radio and talked to Millen about the opportunity to one day coach at the University of Washington it led to his downfall.
Mora told Millen, a former Washington teammate of his: "If that job's open, you'll find me at the head of the line with my resume in hand ready to take that job."
At the time Mora was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons.
"Cost me my job," Mora later said, the Falcons' brass and faithful losing interest in someone who was more interested in working elsewhere.
This should be a time of euphoria for UCLA with the memory of players and coaches standing in the Coliseum tunnel just a few days ago singing, "We are the mighty Bruins, triumphant evermore."
And as they did so, I imagine Pat Haden was thinking to himself: Thank heavens for Jim Mora as well, or I might have had to hire Ed Orgeron.
But then he also had to ask himself, how do we beat UCLA?
