    Abstract: At least one semiconductor nanowire laterally abutted by a pair of semiconductor pad portions is formed over an insulator layer. Portions of the insulator layer are etched from underneath the at least one semiconductor nanowire such that the at least one semiconductor nanowire is suspended. A temporary fill material is deposited over the at least one semiconductor nanowire, and is planarized to physically expose top surfaces of the pair of semiconductor pad portions. Trenches are formed within the pair of semiconductor pad portions, and are filled with stress-generating materials. The temporary fill material is subsequently removed. The at least one semiconductor nanowire is strained along the lengthwise direction with a tensile strain or a compressive strain.

    Abstract: At least one semiconductor fin is formed over an insulator layer. Portions of the insulator layer are etched from underneath the at least one semiconductor fin. The amount of the etched portions of the insulator is selected such that a metallic gate electrode layer fills the entire gap between the recessed surfaces of the insulator layer and the bottom surface(s) of the at least one semiconductor fin. An interface between the metallic gate electrode layer and a semiconductor gate electrode layer contiguously extends over the at least one semiconductor fin and does not underlie any of the at least one semiconductor fin. During patterning of a gate electrode, removal of the semiconductor material in the semiconductor gate electrode layer can be facilitated because the semiconductor gate electrode layer is not present under the at least one semiconductor fin.

    Abstract: A tapered fin field effect transistor can be employed to provide enhanced electrostatic control of the channel. A stack of a semiconductor fin and a dielectric fin cap having substantially vertical sidewall surfaces is formed on an insulator layer. The sidewall surfaces of the semiconductor fin are passivated by an etch residue material from the dielectric fin cap with a tapered thickness profile such that the thickness of the etch residue material decreased with distance from the dielectric fin cap. An etch including an isotropic etch component is employed to remove the etch residue material and to physically expose lower portions of sidewalls of the semiconductor fin. The etch laterally etches the semiconductor fin and forms a tapered region at a bottom portion. The reduced lateral width of the bottom portion of the semiconductor fin allows greater control of the channel for a fin field effect transistor.
