Fin-channel-array transistor (FCAT) featuring sub-70nm low power and high performance DRAM

For the first time, a highly manufacturable fin-channel array transistor (FCAT) on a bulk Si substrate has been successfully integrated in a 512 M density DRAM with sub-70nm technology. The FCAT shows an excellent short channel behavior, such as extremely low subthreshold swing (SS) (/spl sim/75mV/dec) and DIBL (/spl sim/13mV/V), and a high cell transistor drive current with remarkably low subthreshold leakage current (/spl sim/0.2fA/cell).
