    Abstract: By introducing additional strain-inducing mechanisms on the basis of stress memorization techniques, the performance of NMOS transistors may be significantly increased, thereby reducing the imbalance between PMOS transistors and NMOS transistors. By amorphizing and re-crystallizing the respective material in the presence of a mask layer at various stages of the manufacturing process, a drive current improvement of up to approximately 27% has been observed, with the potential for further performance gain.

    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of encrypting data packets of a data stream and decrypting plurally encrypted data of a data stream that provides an increased level of data security and can be automated using a signal sequence (a computer program product) or a data processing device. A data packet to be encrypted or a data packet to be decrypted is automatically encrypted or decrypted sequentially in at least two subsequent processing steps using different coding algorithms and different assigned coding keys. For encryption, a number, type, and sequence of different coding algorithms is first determined (S10) that is to be used in the subsequent encryption operations and respective different coding keys are assigned to the coding algorithms (S12, S13). Then the data packet to be encrypted is encrypted sequentially in at least two subsequent encryption operations (S16, S17) to obtain a plurally encrypted data packet. For decryption, an unencrypted coding characteristic assigned to the plurally encrypted data packet and specifying at least one coding algorithm and an assigned coding key is detected automatically. The coding characteristic thus allows sequential decryption in at least two subsequent decryption operations.

    Abstract: A substrate diode for an SOI device is formed in accordance with an appropriately designed manufacturing flow, wherein transistor performance enhancing mechanisms may be implemented substantially without affecting the diode characteristics. In one aspect, respective openings for the substrate diode may be formed after the formation of a corresponding sidewall spacer structure used for defining the drain and source regions, thereby obtaining a significant lateral distribution of the dopants in the diode areas, which may therefore provide sufficient process margins during a subsequent silicidation sequence on the basis of a removal of the spacers in the transistor devices. In a further aspect, in addition to or alternatively, an offset spacer may be formed substantially without affecting the configuration of respective transistor devices.

    Abstract: By recessing portions of the drain and source areas on the basis of a spacer structure, the subsequent implantation process for forming the deep drain and source regions may result in a moderately high dopant concentration extending down to the buried insulating layer of an SOI transistor. Furthermore, the spacer structure maintains a significant amount of a strained semiconductor alloy with its original thickness, thereby providing an efficient strain-inducing mechanism. By using sophisticated anneal techniques, undue lateral diffusion may be avoided, thereby allowing a reduction of the lateral width of the respective spacers and thus a reduction of the length of the transistor devices. Hence, enhanced charge carrier mobility in combination with reduced junction capacitance may be accomplished on the basis of reduced lateral dimensions.
