Abstract

See full text

A method of forming a vertical fin field effect transistor (vertical finFET) with an increased surface area between a source/drain contact and a doped region, including forming a doped region on a substrate, forming one or more interfacial features on the doped region, and forming a source/drain contact on at least a portion of the doped region, wherein the one or more interfacial features increases the surface area of the interface between the source/drain contact and the doped region compared to a flat source/drain contact-doped region interface.
