In a SRAM cell, a Si pillar, which is a selection SGT in upper row of Si pillars, is located on the left end in X direction. A Si pillar, which is a selection SGT in lower row of Si pillars, is located on the right end. The Si pillar of the lower row is present in a width of an area extended from a contact hole in Y direction in planar view. Then, the Si pillar of the upper row is present in a width of an area extended from a contact hole in Y direction in planar view. In each of the upper row and the lower row, a TiN layer, which is a gate electrode for a loading SGT and a driving SGT, is formed to contact at side surface of entire gate region in a vertical direction between the corresponding Si pillars.

A second band-like mask material layer having a first band-like mask material layer of a same planar shape on its top is formed on a mask material layer on a semiconductor layer. Then, fourth band-like mask material layers having third band-like mask material layers of same planar shape on their top are formed on both side surfaces of the first and second band-like mask material layers. Sixth band-like mask material layers having fifth band-like mask material layers of same planar shape on their top are formed on the outside thereof. Then, an orthogonal band-like mask material layer is formed on the first band-like mask material layer, in a direction orthogonal to a direction in which the first band-like mask material layer extends. Semiconductor pillars are formed on overlapping areas of this orthogonal band-like mask material layer and the second and sixth band-like mask material layers by etching the semiconductor layer. Then, a pillar-shaped semiconductor device is formed with these semiconductor pillars being channels.

First example embodiments comprise forming a stress layer over a MOS transistor (such as a LDMOS Tx) comprised of a channel and first, second and third junction regions. The stress layer creates a stress in the channel and the second junction region of the Tx. Second example embodiments comprise forming a MOS FET and at least a dummy gate over a substrate. The MOS is comprised of a gate, channel, source, drain and offset drain. At least one dummy gate is over the offset drain. A stress layer is formed over the MOS and the dummy gate. The stress layer and the dummy gate improve the stress in the channel and offset drain region.

Integrated circuit system employing an elevated drain

A structure and method of reducing junction capacitance of a source/drain region in a transistor. A gate structure is formed over on a first conductive type substrate. We perform a doped depletion region implantation by implanting ions being the second conductive type to the substrate using the gate structure as a mask, to form a doped depletion region beneath and separated from the source/drain regions. The doped depletion regions have an impurity concentration and thickness so that the doped depletion regions are depleted due to a built-in potential creatable between the doped depletion regions and the substrate. The doped depletion region and substrate form depletion regions between the source/drain regions and the doped depletion region. We perform a S/D implant by implanting ions having a second conductivity type into the substrate to form S/D regions. The doped depletion region and depletion regions reduce the capacitance between the source/drain regions and the substrate.
