[0077] This embodiment provides a method for forming a tunneling field effect transistor, including:

[0078] refer to figure 2 , providing a substrate 110 .

[0079] The substrate 110 may be a silicon substrate, a silicon germanium substrate or other semiconductor substrates known in the art.

[0080] In this embodiment, the substrate 110 is not doped.

[0081] In other embodiments, the second type of doping can be performed on the bottom of the substrate 110 first, and a deep doped well is formed at the bottom of the substrate 110; then, the first type of doping is performed on the substrate 110 above the deep doped well. impurity, forming the first type doped well. The first type of doping and the second type of doping are different.

[0082] The purpose of forming deep doped wells and first type doped wells is to avoid latch-up and other reliability problems.

[0083] In this embodiment, the first type of doping is p-type, and the second type of doping is n-type.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductors, in particular to a tunneling field effect transistor and a forming method thereof. Background technique [0002] Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) technology has been widely used. For example, Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) transistors have become core components in semiconductor integrated circuits. In order to continuously improve the performance and packaging density of integrated circuits, and to reduce the cost of integrated circuits, the feature size of CMOS transistors is continuously reduced. [0003] However, as the dimensions of CMOS transistors continue to shrink, the overall power consumption of CMOS transistors continues to increase. The reasons are as follows: 1. The short channel effect becomes more and more obvious (such as the leakage current increases); 2. It is difficult to make the power supply voltage continue to decrease as the size of the CMOS transistor decreas...
