Abstract:
Fabricating a steep-switch transistor includes receiving a semiconductor structure including a substrate, a fin disposed on the substrate, a plurality of source/drains disposed on the substrate adjacent to the fin, a gate disposed upon the fin, a cap disposed on the gate, and a plurality of trenches, each trench extending to a corresponding one of the plurality of source/drains. A trench contact is formed in each of the trenches in contact with the corresponding source/drain. A recess is formed in a portion of each trench contact below a top surface of the cap. A bi-stable resistive system (BRS) material is deposited in each recess in contact with the portion of the trench contact. A source/drain contact is formed upon the BRS material, a portion of the trench contact, the BRS material, and a portion of the source/drain contact forming a reversible switch for each of the corresponding source/drains.
