Method of localized modification of the stresses in a substrate of the SOI type, in particular FD SOI type, and corresponding device
Abstract:
A substrate of the silicon on insulator type includes a semi-conducting film disposed on a buried insulating layer which is disposed on an unstressed silicon support substrate. The semi-conducting film includes a first film zone of tensile-stressed silicon and a second film zone of tensile-relaxed silicon. Openings through the buried insulating layer permit access to the unstressed silicon support substrate under the first and second film zones. An N channel transistor is formed from the first film zone and a P channel transistor is formed from the second film zone. The second film zone may comprise germanium enriched silicon forming a compressive-stressed region.
