    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure describe techniques and configurations to impart strain to integrated circuit devices such as horizontal field effect transistors. An integrated circuit device includes a semiconductor substrate, a quantum well channel coupled with the semiconductor substrate, a source structure coupled with the quantum well channel, a drain structure coupled with the quantum well channel and a strain-inducing film disposed on and in direct contact with material of the source structure and the drain structure to reduce resistance of the quantum well channel by imparting a tensile or compressive strain on the quantum well channel, wherein the quantum well channel is disposed between the strain-inducing film and the semiconductor substrate. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    摘要: A quantum well device and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a quantum well structure comprises a quantum well region overlying a substrate and a remote counter doping comprising dopants of conductivity opposite to the conductivity of the charge carriers of the quantum well region. The remote counter doping is incorporated in a vicinity of the quantum well region for exchange mobile carriers with the quantum well channel, reducing the off-state leakage current. In another embodiment, a quantum well device comprises a quantum well structure including a remote counter doping, a gate region overlying a portion of the quantum well structure, and a source and drain region adjacent to the gate region. The quantum well device can also comprise a remote delta doping comprising dopants of the same conductivity as the quantum well channel.

In embodiments, a metamorphic buffer includes an AlxIn1-xN layer lattice matched to an overlying GaN device layers to reduce thermal mismatch induced defects. Such crystalline epitaxial semiconductor stacks may be device layers for HEMT or LED fabrication, for example. System on Chip (SoC) solutions integrating an RFIC with a PMIC using a transistor technology based on group III-nitrides (III-N) capable of achieving high Ft and also sufficiently high breakdown voltage (BV) to implement high voltage and/or high power circuits may be provided on the semiconductor stacks in a first area of the silicon substrate while silicon-based CMOS circuitry is provided in a second area of the substrate.
