    摘要: A semiconductor-based structure includes a substrate layer, a compressively strained semiconductor layer adjacent to the substrate layer to provide a channel for a component, and a tensilely strained semiconductor layer disposed between the substrate layer and the compressively strained semiconductor layer. A method for making an electronic device includes providing, on a strain-inducing substrate, a first tensilely strained layer, forming a compressively strained layer on the first tensilely strained layer, and forming a second tensilely strained layer on the compressively strained layer. The first and second tensilely strained layers can be formed of silicon, and the compressively strained layer can be formed of silicon and germanium.

    摘要: A semiconductor-based device includes a channel layer, which includes a distal layer and a proximal layer in contact with the distal layer. The distal layer supports at least a portion of hole conduction for at least one p-channel component, and the proximal layer supports at least a portion of electron conduction for at least one n-channel component. The proximal layer has a thickness that permits a hole wave function to effectively extend from the proximal layer into the distal layer to facilitate hole conduction by the distal layer. A method for fabricating a semiconductor-based device includes providing a distal portion of a channel layer and providing a proximal portion of the channel layer.
