Co-fabricated gate-all-around field effect transistor and fin field effect transistor

摘要

The disclosed technology generally relates to semiconductor structures and methods of forming the semiconductor structures, and more particularly to semiconductor structures related to a gate-all-around field effect transistor and a fin field effect transistor. In one aspect, a method of forming field effect transistors includes forming in a first region of a substrate a first semiconductor feature and forming in a second region of the substrate a second semiconductor feature. Each of the first and second semiconductor features comprises a fin-shaped semiconductor feature including a vertical stack of at least a first semiconductor material layer and a second semiconductor material layer formed over the first semiconductor material layer. The method additionally includes selectively etching to remove the first semiconductor material layer along a longitudinal section of the first semiconductor feature to form a suspended longitudinal first semiconductor feature of a remaining second semiconductor material layer, while masking the second region to prevent etching of the second semiconductor feature. The method additionally includes forming a gate-all-around electrode surrounding the suspended longitudinal first semiconductor feature in the first region. The method further includes forming a gate electrode on the fin-shaped second semiconductor feature in the second region.
