Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017003414A1] Monolithic finFETs including a majority carrier channel in a first III-V compound semiconductor material disposed on a second III-V compound semiconductor. While a mask, such as a sacrificial gate stack, is covering the channel region, a source of an amphoteric dopant is deposited over exposed fin sidewalls and diffused into the first III-V compound semiconductor material. The amphoteric dopant preferentially activates as a donor within the first III-V material and an acceptor with the second III-V material, providing transistor tip doping with a p-n junction between the first and second III-V materials. A lateral spacer is deposited to cover the tip portion of the fin. Source/drain regions in regions of the fin not covered by the mask or spacer electrically couple to the channel through the tip region. The channel mask is replaced with a gate stack.
