LATE REPLACEMENT BOTTOM ISOLATION FOR NANOSHEET DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17487301 titled 'LATE REPLACEMENT BOTTOM ISOLATION FOR NANOSHEET DEVICES

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system that includes a semiconductor structure with a dielectric liner and an access trench. The dielectric liner wraps around a substrate island and separates it from a gate stack, while the access trench is in physical contact with the dielectric liner.

  • The system includes a semiconductor structure with a dielectric liner and an access trench.
  • The dielectric liner wraps around a substrate island, separating it from a gate stack.
  • The access trench is in physical contact with the dielectric liner.

Potential Applications

  • Semiconductor manufacturing
  • Integrated circuit design
  • Electronics industry

Problems Solved

  • Provides a protective barrier between the substrate island and the gate stack
  • Helps prevent electrical interference and damage to the substrate island

Benefits

  • Enhanced performance and reliability of the semiconductor structure
  • Improved isolation and insulation of the substrate island
  • Potential for increased efficiency and functionality of integrated circuits


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments are disclosed for a system. The system includes a semiconductor structure. The semiconductor structure includes a dielectric liner that wraps around a top and one side of a substrate island. The dielectric liner separates a substrate from a gate stack. Further, the system includes an access trench in physical contact with the dielectric liner.
