Self-aligned double-gate (DG) vertical MOSFET’s using oblique rotating implantation (ORI) method with reduced parasitic capacitance

Enhanced symmetrical self-aligned double-gate (DG) vertical nMOSFET with low parasitic capacitance is presented. The process utilizes the oblique rotating ion implantation (ORI) method combined with fillet local oxidation (FILOX) technology (FILOX + ORI). Self-aligned region forms a sharp vertical channel profile that increased the number of electrons in the channel. These have improved drive-on current and drain-induced-barrier-lowering (DIBL) effect with a reduced off-state leakage current tremendously. The gate-to-drain capacitance is significantly reduced while has a small difference of gate-to-source capacitance compared to FILOX device. The drain overlap capacitance is a factor of 0.2 lower and the source overlap capacitance is a factor of 1.5 lower than standard vertical MOSFETs.
