摘要:
A method and a layered heterostructure for forming p-channel field effect transistors is described incorporating a plurality of semiconductor layers on a semiconductor substrate, a composite channel structure of a first epitaxial Ge layer and a second compressively strained SiGe layer having a higher barrier or a deeper confining quantum well and having extremely high hole mobility. The invention overcomes the problem of a limited hole mobility for a p-channel device with only a single compressively strained SiGe channel layer.

A method for forming buried oxide regions below a single crystal semiconductor layer incorporating the steps of forming epitaxial layers having different rates of oxidation with the lower layer having a faster rate of oxidation and oxidizing the layers through an opening in a mask. A plurality of oxide isolated FET's may be formed. The invention reduces the problem of source/drain parasitic capacitance and short channel effects while isolating FET's and eliminating floating body effects of an FET by selectively oxidizing semiconductor layers.

A structure and method of forming an abrupt doping profile is described incorporating a substrate, a first epitaxial layer of Ge less than the critical thickness having a P or As concentration greater than 5×1019 atoms/cc, and a second epitaxial layer having a change in concentration in its first 40 Å from the first layer of greater than 1×1019 P atoms/cc. Alternatively, a layer of SiGe having a Ge content greater than 0.5 may be selectively amorphized and recrystalized with respect to other layers in a layered structure. The invention overcomes the problem of forming abrupt phosphorus profiles in Si and SiGe layers or films in semiconductor structures such as CMOS, MODFET'S, and HBT's.
