Semiconductor device including a superlattice and dopant diffusion retarding implants and related methods

Abstract

A semiconductor device may include a substrate and at least one MOSFET adjacent the substrate. The MOSFET may include a superlattice channel including a plurality of stacked groups of layers, a source and a drain adjacent the superlattice channel, and a gate adjacent the superlattice channel. Each group of layers of the superlattice channel may include a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion and at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within a crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions. A first dopant may be in at least one region adjacent at least one of the source and drain, and a second dopant may also be in the at least one region. The second dopant may be different than the first dopant and reduce diffusion thereof.
