Semiconductor structure and method for fabricating same
Embodiments discloses a semiconductor structure and a fabricating method. The method includes: forming a contact hole on a substrate; forming a first doped layer on a surface of the contact hole, and annealing the first doped layer; forming at least one second doped layer on the first doped layer, and annealing each of the at least one second doped layer; and forming a third doped layer on the at least one second doped layer to fill up the contact hole. A thickness of the at least one second doped layer is greater than a thickness of the third doped layer, and the thickness of the third doped layer is greater than the thickness of the first doped layer. Annealing not only can repair lattice mismatch and lattice defect in the first doped layer/second doped layer, but also can improve surface roughness of the first doped layer/second doped layer.
FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTOR AND FORMATION METHOD THEREOF
A method of forming a field effect transistor comprises the following steps. A gate dielectric layer and a semiconductor layer are formed over a substrate in sequence. A photoresist layer is formed over the semiconductor layer. A plasma treatment is performed to the semiconductor layer to form a doped region and an undoped region laterally adjoining the doped region of the semiconductor layer using a gas. A conductive layer is formed over the doped region of the semiconductor layer and the photoresist layer. The photoresist layer is lifted off.
DIFFUSION SUPPRESSION IN HIGH-TEMPERATURE ANNEALING OF NITRIDES
A nitride semiconductor and method of making the same are provided. In embodiments, a method for manufacturing a nitride semiconductor includes: providing a nitride semiconductor material including at least one main dopant defining a p-type portion; doping the nitride semiconductor material with at least one co-dopant co-located with the main dopant, wherein the co-dopant reduces gas-enhanced diffusion of the main dopant by a component in an ambient gas during annealing; and annealing the nitride semiconductor material under pressure, thereby producing an annealed nitride semiconductor material with an activated main dopant. In implementations, a nitride semiconductor is produced including an annealed nitride semiconductor material doped with magnesium (Mg) and oxygen (O) in an activated p-type portion, wherein the Mg and O are present at a ratio of 2:1.
