    Abstract: The present invention provides a 6T-SRAM semiconductintg structure including a substrate having an SOI region and a bulk-Si region, wherein the SOI region and the bulk-Si region have a same or differing crystallographic orientation; an isolation region separating the SOI region from the bulk Si-region; and at least one first device located in the SOI region and at least one second device located in the bulk-Si region. The SOI region has a silicon layer atop an insulating layer. The bulk-Si region further comprises a well region underlying the second device and a contact to the well region, wherein the contact stabilizes floating body effects. The well contact is also used to control the threshold voltages of the FETs in the bulk-Si region to optimized the power and performance of the SRAM cell built from the combination of the SOI and bulk-Si region FETs.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor device having dual nitride liners, which provide an increased transverse stress state for at least one FET (300) and methods for the manufacture of such a device. A first aspect of the invention provides a method for use in the manufacture of a semiconductor device comprising the steps of applying a first silicon nitride liner (360) to the device and applying a second silicon nitride liner (370) adjacent the fast silicon nitride liner, wherein at least one of the first and second silicon nitride liners induces a transverse stress in a silicon channel (330) beneath at least one of the first and second silicon nitride liner.
