Fabrication and Electrical Properties of Local Damascene FinFET Cell Array in Sub-60㎚ Feature Sized DRAM

We fabricate local damascene FinFET cell array in sub-60nm feature sized DRAM. The local damascene structure can remove passing-gate-effects in FinFET cell array. p+ boron in-situ doped polysilicon is chosen for the gate material, and we obtain a uniform distribution of threshold voltages at around 0.7V. Sub-threshold swing of 75㎷/d and extrapolated off-state leakage current of 0.03fA are obtained, which are much suppressed values against those of recessed channel array transistors. We also obtain a few times higher on-state current. Based on the improved on- and off-state current characteristics, we expect that the FinFET cell array could be a new mainstream structure in sub-60nm DRAM devices, satisfying high density, low power, and high-speed device requirements.
