Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method and resulting structures for a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) having source and drain contacts formed using trench solid and liquid phase epitaxy (SPE/LPE). In a non-limiting embodiment of the invention, an NFET is formed on a substrate. The NFET includes a p-type semiconductor fin vertically extending from an n-type bottom source or drain region of the substrate. A PFET is also formed on the substrate. The PFET includes an n-type semiconductor fin vertically extending from a p-type bottom source or drain region of the substrate. A first gate is formed over a channel region of the p-type semiconductor fin and a second gate is formed over a channel region of the n-type semiconductor fin. The first gate and the second gate include a common dipole layer. The NFET and PFET each include a linear threshold voltage of about 150 mV to about 250 mV and a difference between the linear threshold voltages of the NFET and PFET is less than about 50 mV.

Claim (Index 2):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein the dipole layer decreased the threshold voltage of the NFET having the first gate by about 40 to 50 mV and increased an absolute value of the threshold voltage of the PFET having the second gate by about 40 to 50 mV.
