Patent ID: 10319846

Abstract:
A semiconductor structure includes a substrate, an isolation layer disposed over the substrate, a plurality of nanosheet channels, interfacial layers surrounding each of the nanosheet channels, and dielectric layers surrounding each of the interfacial layers. The plurality of nanosheet channels includes first and second sets of two or more nanosheet channels for first and second NFETs and third and fourth sets of two or more nanosheet channels for first and second PFETs. The interfacial layers surrounding the first and third sets of nanosheet channels for the first NFET and the first PFET have a first thickness, and interfacial layers surrounding the second and fourth sets of nanosheets channels for the second NFET and the second PFET have a second thickness smaller than the first thickness. The first NFET has a higher threshold voltage than the second NFET, and the first PFET has a lower threshold voltage than the second PFET.
