The disclosed structures include at least one FET gate stack located on an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate. The at least one FET gate stack includes source and drain extension regions located within the semiconductor substrate at a footprint of the at least one FET gate stack. A device channel is also present between the source and drain extension regions and beneath the at least one gate stack. The structure further includes embedded stressor elements located on opposite sides of the at least one FET gate stack and within the semiconductor substrate. Each of the embedded stressor elements includes a lower layer of a first epitaxy doped semiconductor material having a lattice constant that is different from a lattice constant of the semiconductor substrate and imparts a strain in the device channel, and an upper layer of a second epitaxy doped semiconductor material located atop the lower layer. The lower layer of the first epitaxy doped semiconductor material has a lower content of dopant as compared to the upper layer of the second epitaxy doped semiconductor material.

    摘要: A planar pass gate NFET is designed with the same width as a planar pull-down NFET. To optimize a beta ratio between the planar pull-down NFET and an adjoined planar pass gate NFET, the threshold voltage of the planar pass gate NFET is increased by providing a different high-k metal gate stack to the planar pass gate NFET than to the planar pull-down NFET. Particularly, a threshold voltage adjustment dielectric layer, which is formed over a high-k dielectric layer, is preserved in the planar pass gate NFET and removed in the planar pull-down NFET. The combined NFET active area for the planar pass gate NFET and the planar pull-down NFET is substantially rectangular, which enables a high fidelity printing of the image of the combined NFET active area by lithographic means.

    摘要: At least one gate dielectric, a gate electrode, and a gate cap dielectric are formed over at least one channel region of at least one semiconductor fin. A gate spacer is formed on the sidewalls of the gate electrode, exposing end portions of the fin on both sides of the gate electrode. The exposed portions of the semiconductor fin are vertically and laterally etched, thereby reducing the height and width of the at least one semiconductor fin in the end portions. Exposed portions of the insulator layer may also be recessed. A lattice-mismatched semiconductor material is grown on the remaining end portions of the at least one semiconductor fin by selective epitaxy with epitaxial registry with the at least one semiconductor fin. The lattice-mismatched material applies longitudinal stress along the channel of the finFET formed on the at least one semiconductor fin.
