    摘要: The present invention provides a device design and method for forming Field Effect Transistors (FETs) that have improved performance without negative impacts to device density. The present invention forms high-gain p-channel transistors by forming them on silicon islands where hole mobility has been increased. The hole mobility is increased by applying physical straining to the silicon islands. By straining the silicon islands, the hole mobility is increased resulting in increased device gain. This is accomplished without requiring an increase in the size of the devices, or the size of the contacts to the devices.

    摘要: Disclosed is a damascene method for forming a semiconductor structure and the resulting semiconductor structure having multiple fin-shaped channel regions with different widths. In the method, fin-shaped channel regions are etched using differently configured isolating caps as masks to define the different widths. For example, a wide width isolating cap can comprise a dielectric body positioned laterally between dielectric spacers and can be used as a mask to define a relatively wide width channel region; a medium width isolating cap can comprise a dielectric body alone and can be used as a mask to define a medium width channel region and/or a narrow width isolating cap can comprise a dielectric spacer alone and can be used as a mask to define a relatively narrow width channel region. These multiple fin-shaped channel regions with different widths can be incorporated into either multiple multi-gate field effect transistors (MUGFETs) or a single MUGFET.

    摘要: A multilayer integrated circuit (IC) including a cross pattern of air gaps in a wiring layer and methods of making the multilayer IC are provided. The patterning of the air gaps is independent of the wiring layout. Patterns of air gaps including: parallel alternating stripes of air gaps and dielectric that are orthogonal to a uni-directional metal wiring layout; parallel alternating stripes of air gaps and dielectric that are diagonal to either a uni- or bi-directional metal wiring layout; and a checkerboard pattern of air gaps and dielectric that crosses either a uni- or bi-directional metal wiring layout are easily formed by conventional photolithography and provide a comparatively uniform reduction in parasitic capacitance between the wires and the surrounding materials, when about one-half of a total length of the metal wiring layout is disposed within the air gaps.
