3D Sidewall Integration of Ultrahigh‐Density Silicon Nanowires for Stacked Channel Electronics
ADVANCED ELECTRONIC MATERIALS(2019)
摘要
Building 3D electronics represents a promising method for the integration of more functionalities into a given footprint. To this end, stacked multilevel silicon nanowires (SiNWs) are ideal multilevel channels to construct high-density 3D electronics. 3D vectorial self-assembled growth of orderly lateral SiNWs is accomplished directly upon oblique or vertical sidewalls, which are otherwise difficult to address by conventional lithography, led by indium droplets that absorb amorphous silicon thin film coated on the sidewalls to produce SiNW stacks at only 350 degrees C. With the guidance of sidewall terraces formed by multilayer or alternating etching approaches, ultralong supported or suspended multilevel SiNW stacks can be easily mass produced with tailored geometry and average diameter and spacing down to 50 and 100 nm, respectively. Prototype stacked multi-SiNW-channel transistors, with a fin-gate configuration, are also fabricated and demonstrate an impressive high I-on/I-off current ratio >10(7), a hole mobility of 60 cm(2)/V-1 s(-1), and a rather low leakage current. These results highlight the unique potential and versatility of a nanodroplet-assisted self-assembled growth in constructing more complex and advanced 3D stacked channel electronics.
