Triple-self-aligned, planar double-gate MOSFETs: devices and circuits

Abstract

We introduce a planar, triple-self-aligned double-gate FET structure ("PAGODA"). Device fabrication incorporates wafer bonding, front-end CMP, mixed optical/e-beam lithography, silicided silicon source/drain sidewalls, and back gate undercut and passivation. We demonstrate double-gate FET operation with good transport at both interfaces, inverter action, and NOR logic.
