We compare two integration options to avoid shorts between DBC and gate and/or Si substrate relying either on the use of an offset spacer or on the formation of a bottom dielectric isolation from the backside (BS-BDI). We show that a DBC layer registration accuracy of < 3 nm can be achieved with high order correction modelling which can be transferred to consecutively processed BS layers. Both integration options result in functional bottom (pFET) and top (nFET) CMOS devices on a common gate at 60 nm gate pitch. While the BS-BDI option requires additional process steps, it results into parasitic transistor leakage suppression due to replacement of the Si substrate under the gate by dielectric. Moreover, it provides better tolerance to DBC misplacement and enables maximizing contacting area.engProceedings paper10.1109/iedm50854.2024.10873520WOS:001692734400202
