Abstract:
A semiconductor device including a substrate, a gate dielectric layer, a gate, a pair of source/drain regions and a stressed layer is disclosed. The gate dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate and the gate whose top area is larger than its bottom area is disposed on the gate dielectric layer. The source/drain regions are disposed in the substrate next to the sidewalls of the gate. The stressed layer is disposed on the substrate to cover the gate and the source/drain regions.
Abstract:
A CMOS transistor device including a tensile-stressed NMOS transistor and a PMOS transistor is disclosed. The NMOS transistor includes a gate, a gate oxide layer between the gate and semiconductor substrate, a silicon oxide offset spacer on sidewalls of the gate, N type lightly doped source/drain implanted into the semiconductor substrate next to the silicon oxide offset spacer, N type heavily doped source/drain implanted into the semiconductor substrate next to the N type lightly doped source/drain, and tensile-stressed silicon nitride layer covering the gate, the N type lightly doped source/drain, and the N type heavily doped source/drain.
