Abstract

A metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) with integrated passive structures and methods of manufacturing the same is disclosed. The method includes forming a stacked structure in an active region and at least one shallow trench isolation (STI) structure adjacent to the stacked structure. The method further includes forming a semiconductor layer directly in contact with the at least one STI structure and the stacked structure. The method further includes patterning the semiconductor layer and the stacked structure to form an active device in the active region and a passive structure of the semiconductor layer directly on the at least one STI structure.

Claims (21)

1. A structure comprising:

an active device comprising:

a high-k dielectric material on a substrate;

a metal material on the high-k dielectric material; and

a semiconductor material over the metal material; and

a passive structure comprising semiconductor directly in contact with shallow trench isolation structures, adjacent to the active device,

wherein the active device is formed with a height greater than the passive structure.

2. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the shallow trench isolation structure is on a lining material.

3. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the shallow trench isolation structure is formed on adjacent to the active device.

4. The structure of claim 3 , wherein the shallow trench isolation structure is formed below the passive device.

5. The structure of claim 1 , wherein ion implanting dopant impurities penetrate into a substrate to form wells in the substrate of the active device.

6. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor layer directly on the shallow trench isolation structures.

7. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor material is recessed in the active region.

8. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the semiconductor material is protruding in the active region.

9. The structure of claim 1 , further comprising a liner on side surfaces of a stacked structure in the active region, comprising the high-k dielectric material, the metal material, and the semiconductor material.

10. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the metal material is a gate metal.

11. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the gate metal is one of TiN, TaN, Al, and W deposited to a thickness ranging from about 1 nm to about 200 nm.

12. The structure of claim 1 , wherein the metal material is in direct contact with the high-k dielectric material.

13. The structure of claim 12 , wherein the high-k dielectric material is in direct contact with the substrate.

14. The structure of claim 13 , wherein the high-k dielectric material comprises only a single layer of a single material.

15. The structure of claim 14 , wherein the high-k dielectric material is provided on a silicon-on-insulator layer.
