SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18125411 titled 'SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a semiconductor device that includes two channel structures spaced apart from each other in one direction. Between these channel structures is a source/drain pattern, which consists of a first interface contacting the first channel structure and a second interface contacting the second channel structure. In a plan view, the source/drain pattern has two opposite side walls in a different direction. The first side wall has a first sloped side wall, a second sloped side wall, and a first horizontal intersection where the two sloped side walls meet. The width of the first interface is different from the width of the second interface in the second direction. Additionally, the distance from the first interface to the first horizontal intersection is greater than the distance from the second interface to the first horizontal intersection in the first direction.
