Abstract:
A method and system is disclosed for forming an improved isolation structure for strained channel transistors. In one example, an isolation structure is formed comprising a trench filled with a nitrogen-containing liner and a gap filler. The nitrogen-containing liner enables the isolation structure to reduce compressive strain contribution to the channel region.
