Source/drain recess etch stop layers and bottom wide-gap cap for III-V MOSFETs

Abstract:

A buffer layer is deposited on a substrate. A first III-V semiconductor layer is deposited on the buffer layer. A second III-V semiconductor layer is deposited on the first III-V semiconductor layer. The second III-V semiconductor layer comprises a channel portion and a source/drain portion. The first III-V semiconductor layer acts as an etch stop layer to etch a portion of the second III-V semiconductor layer to form the source/drain portion.
