SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18487177 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a semiconductor device that includes a substrate with two regions, a first silicon-germanium film formed inside the surface of the first region to define a first gate trench, a first gate insulating film on the first silicon-germanium film, a first metallic gate electrode on the first gate insulating film, a source/drain region on both sides of the first metallic gate electrode, a second gate insulating film in the second region, and a second metallic gate electrode on the second gate insulating film.

  • The device includes a substrate with two regions.
  • A first silicon-germanium film is formed inside the surface of the first region to define a first gate trench.
  • A first gate insulating film extends on the first silicon-germanium film along the profile of the first gate trench and is in physical contact with the first silicon-germanium film.
  • A first metallic gate electrode is present on the first gate insulating film.
  • A source/drain region is formed inside the substrate on both sides of the first metallic gate electrode.
  • A second gate insulating film is present in the second region.
  • A second metallic gate electrode is present on the second gate insulating film.
