A high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) device includes a substrate, a channel layer, a source, a drain, a buffer layer, and a plurality of amorphous regions. The channel layer is located above the substrate. The source is located on the channel layer. The drain is located on the channel layer. The buffer layer is located between the substrate and the channel layer. The plurality of amorphous regions are located in the buffer layer below the source and the drain.

High electron mobility transistor device and manufacturing method thereof

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes the steps of first forming a gate dielectric layer on a substrate, forming a gate material layer on the gate dielectric layer, patterning the gate material layer and the gate dielectric layer to form a gate structure, removing a portion of the gate dielectric layer, forming a spacer adjacent to the gate structure and at the same time forming an air gap between the gate dielectric layer and the spacer, and then forming a source/drain region adjacent to two sides of the spacer.

Method for forming air gap between gate dielectric layer and spacer

A semiconductor structure including a substrate, a dielectric layer, a first conductive layer, and a passivation layer is provided. The dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate. The first conductive layer is disposed on the dielectric layer. The passivation layer is disposed on the first conductive layer and the dielectric layer. The passivation layer includes a first upper surface and a second upper surface. The first upper surface is located above a top surface of the first conductive layer. The second upper surface is located on one side of the first conductive layer. A height of the first upper surface is higher than a height of the second upper surface. The height of the second upper surface is lower than or equal to a height of a lower surface of the first conductive layer located between a top surface of the dielectric layer and the first conductive layer.

Semiconductor structure

A method of fabricating a fin structure with tensile stress includes providing a structure divided into an N-type transistor region and a P-type transistor region. Next, two first trenches and two second trenches are formed in the substrate. The first trenches define a fin structure. The second trenches segment the first trenches and the fin. Later, a flowable chemical vapor deposition is performed to form a silicon oxide layer filling the first trenches and the second trenches. Then, a patterned mask is formed only within the N-type transistor region. The patterned mask only covers the silicon oxide layer in the second trenches. Subsequently, part of the silicon oxide layer is removed to make the exposed silicon oxide layer lower than the top surface of the fin structure by taking the patterned mask as a mask. Finally, the patterned mask is removed.
