摘要:
A method for manufacturing a device including an n-type device and a p-type device. In an aspect of the invention, the method involves doping a portion of a semiconductor substrate and forming a gap in the semiconductor substrate by removing at least a portion of the doped portion of the semiconductor substrate. The method further involves growing a strain layer in at least a portion of the gap in the semiconductor substrate. For the n-type device, the strain layer is grown on at least a portion which is substantially directly under a channel of the n-type device. For the p-type device, the strain layer is grown on at least a portion which is substantially directly under a source region or drain region of the p-type device and not substantially under a channel of the p-type device.

摘要:
A p-type field effect transistor (PFET) and an n-type field effect transistor (NFET) of an integrated circuit are provided. A first strain is applied to the channel region of the PFET but not the NFET via a lattice-mismatched semiconductor layer such as silicon germanium disposed in source and drain regions of only the PFET and not of the NFET. A process of making the PFET and NFET is provided. Trenches are etched in the areas to become the source and drain regions of the PFET and a lattice-mismatched silicon germanium layer is grown epitaxially therein to apply a strain to the channel region of the PFET adjacent thereto. A layer of silicon can be grown over the silicon germanium layer and a salicide formed from the layer of silicon to provide low-resistance source and drain regions.

A process is provided for making a PFET and an NFET. Areas in a first semiconductor region adjacent to a gate stack are recessed. A lattice-mismatched semiconductor layer is grown in the recesses to apply a strain to the channel region of the PFET adjacent thereto. A layer of the first semiconductor material can be grown over the lattice-mismatched semiconductor layer and a salicide formed from the layer of silicon to provide low-resistance source and drain regions.
