摘要:
An NMOS transistor may be formed with a biaxially strained silicon upper layer having a thickness of greater than 500 Angstroms. The resulting NMOS transistor may have good performance and may exhibit reduced self-heating. A PMOS transistor may be formed with both a biaxially and uniaxially strained silicon germanium layer. A source substrate bias applied to both NMOS and PMOS transistors can enhance their performance.

A method of fabricating a MOS transistor having a thinned channel region is described. The channel region is etched following removal of a dummy gate. The source and drain regions have relatively low resistance with the process.
摘要:
A nanotube transistor, such as a carbon nanotube transistor, may be formed with a top gate electrode and a spaced source and drain. Conduction along the transistor from source to drain is controlled by the gate electrode. Underlying the gate electrode are at least two nanotubes. In some embodiments, the substrate may act as a back gate.
