摘要:
A field effect transistor is provided which includes a contiguous single-crystal semiconductor region in which a source region, a channel region and a drain region are disposed. The channel region has an edge in common with the source region as a source edge, and the channel region further has an edge in common with the drain region as a drain edge. A gate conductor overlies the channel region. The field effect transistor further includes a structure which applies a stress at a first magnitude to only one of the source edge and the drain edge while applying the stress at no greater than a second magnitude to another one of the source edge and the drain edge, wherein the second magnitude has a value ranging from zero to about half the first magnitude. In a particular embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the source edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge. In another embodiment, the stress is applied at the first magnitude to the drain edge while the zero or lower magnitude stress is applied to the drain edge.

A structure, apparatus and method for a FET prime cell surrounded by a conductor is provided. The surrounding conductor includes a substrate contact arranged proximate a source of the FET. The surrounding conductor may be a ring substrate contact arranged within the substrate of the FET in electrical communication with elongated sources of the FET. No external contacts are needed to the ring substrate contact because no current flows therethrough while the ring substrate contact may act as a collection source for noise such as stray currents.

S-parameter data is measured on an embedded device test structure, an open dummy, and a short dummy. A 4-port network of the pad set parasitics of the embedded device test structure is modeled by a parameterized netlist containing a lumped element network having at least one parameterized lumped element. The S-parameter data across a range of measurement frequencies is fitted with the parameterized netlist employing the at least one parameterized lumped element as at least one fitting parameter for the S-parameter data. Thus, the fitting method is a multi-frequency fitting for the at least one parameterized lumped element. A 4-port Y-parameter (admittance parameter) is obtained from the fitted parameterized netlist. The Y-parameter of the device under test is obtained from the measured admittance of the embedded device test structure and the calculated 4-port Y parameter.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for depositing single crystal, epitaxial films of silicon carbon and silicon germanium carbon on a plurality of substrates in a hot wall, isothermal UHV-CVD system is described. In particular, a multiple wafer low temperature growth technique in the range from 350° C. to 750° C. is described for incorporating carbon epitaxially in Si and SiGe films with very abrupt and well defined junctions, but without any associated oxygen background contamination. Preferably, these epitakial SiC and SiGeC films are in-situ doped p- or n-type and with the presence of low concentration of carbon
