System and method for creating stressed polycrystalline silicon in an integrated circuit. A preferred embodiment comprises manufacturing an integrated circuit, comprising forming a trench in an integrated circuit substrate, forming a cavity within the integrated circuit substrate, wherein the cavity is linked to the trench, depositing a dielectric layer within the cavity, and depositing polycrystalline silicon over the dielectric layer, wherein an inherent stress is induced in the polycrystalline silicon that grows on the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer may be, for example, silicon aluminum oxynitride (SiAlON), mullite (3Al2O3.2SiO2), and alumina (Al2O3).

A silicon-on-insulator device having multiple crystal orientations is disclosed. In one embodiment, the silicon-on-insulator device includes a substrate layer, an insulating layer disposed on the substrate layer, a first silicon layer, and a strained silicon layer. The first silicon layer has a first crystal orientation and is disposed on a portion of the insulating layer, and the strained silicon layer is disposed on another portion of the insulating layer and has a crystal orientation different from the first crystal orientation.

A method of forming an integrated circuit device is disclosed. A polycrystalline silicon layer is formed in direct contact with a dielectric material so that the dielectric material induces a stress in the polycrystalline silicon layer as the polycrystalline silicon layer is formed. A MOS transistor that includes a gate including the polycrystalline silicon is then completed.
摘要:
Capacitors are formed in metallization layers of semiconductor device in regions where functional conductive features are not formed, more efficiently using real estate of integrated circuits. The capacitors may be stacked and connected in parallel to provide increased capacitance, or arranged in arrays. The plates of the capacitors are substantially the same dimensions as conductive features, such as conductive lines or vias, or are substantially the same dimensions as fill structures of the semiconductor device.
摘要:
Integrated circuits are oriented on a substrate at an angle that is rotated between 5 to 40 degrees from a direction parallel or perpendicular to a preferred crystalline plane direction, such as the cleavage plane, of the substrate. Parameters such as stress and mobility of transistors may be optimized by adjusting the angle of rotation of the substrate. For a rotated substrate CMOS device design, other stress control measures may be used, such as a stress control or tensile liner, over an NMOS transistor, PMOS transistor, or both, to further adjust the stress and improve performance.

Integrated circuits are oriented on a substrate at an angle that is rotated between 0 to 45 degrees from a direction parallel or perpendicular to a preferred crystalline plane direction, such as the cleavage plane, of the substrate. Parameters such as stress and mobility of transistors may be optimized by adjusting the angle of rotation of the substrate. For a rotated substrate CMOS device design, other stress control measures may be used, such as a stress control or tensile liner, over an NMOS transistor, PMOS transistor, or both, to further adjust the stress and improve performance.
