    摘要: A method that includes forming a gate of a semiconductor device on a substrate, and etching sidewall spacers on sides of the gate to provide a proximity value, where the proximity value is defined as a distance between the gate and an edge of a performance-enhancing region. The sidewall spacers are used to define the edge of the region during formation of the region in the substrate. The method also includes pre-cleaning the gate and the substrate in preparation for formation of the region, where the etching and the pre-cleaning are performed in a continuous vacuum.

    摘要: A selective stress memorization technique is disclosed in which the creation of tensile strain may be accomplished without additional photolithography steps by using an implantation mask or any other mask required during a standard manufacturing flow, or by providing a patterned cap layer for a strained re-crystallization of respective drain and source areas. In still other aspects, additional anneal steps may be used for selectively creating a crystalline state and a non-crystalline state prior to the re-crystallization on the basis of a cap layer. Thus, enhanced strain may be obtained in one type of transistor while not substantially negatively affecting the other type of transistor without requiring additional photolithography steps.
