    摘要: A semiconductor device having a core device with a high-k gate dielectric and an I/O device with a silicon dioxide or other non-high-k gate dielectric, and a method of fabricating such a device. A core well and an I/O well are created in a semiconductor substrate and separated by an isolation structure. An I/O device is formed over the I/O well and has a silicon dioxide or a low-k gate dielectric. A resistor may be formed on an isolation structure adjacent to the core well. A core-well device such as a transistor is formed over the core well, and has a high-k gate dielectric. In some embodiments, a p-type I/O well and an n-type I/O well are created. In a preferred embodiment, the I/O device or devices are formed prior to forming the core device and protected with a sacrificial layer until the core device is fabricated.

    摘要: A strain-induced layer is formed atop a MOS device in order to increase carrier mobility in the channel region. The dimension of the strain-induced layer in preferred embodiments may lead to an optimized drive current increase and improved drive current uniformity in an NMOS and PMOS device. An advantage of the preferred embodiments is that improved device performance is obtained without adding complex processing steps. A further advantage of the preferred embodiments is that the added processing steps can be readily integrated into a known CMOS process flow. Moreover, the creation of the photo masks defining the tensile and compressive strain-induced layers does not require extra design work on an existed design database.
