摘要:
A semiconductor device and a method for fabricating a semiconductor device involve a semiconductor layer that includes a first material and a second material. The first and second materials can be silicon and germanium. A contact of the device has a portion proximal to the semiconductor layer and a portion distal to the semiconductor layer. The distal portion includes the first material and the second material. A metal layer formed adjacent to the relaxed semiconductor layer and adjacent to the distal portion of the contact is simultaneously reacted with the relaxed semiconductor layer and with the distal portion of the contact to provide metallic contact material.

摘要:
A method and a layered heterostructure for forming p-channel field effect transistors is described incorporating a plurality of semiconductor layers on a semiconductor substrate, a composite channel structure of a first epitaxial Ge layer and a second compressively strained SiGe layer having a higher barrier or a deeper confining quantum well and having extremely high hole mobility. The invention overcomes the problem of a limited hole mobility for a p-channel device with only a single compressively strained SiGe channel layer.
