    摘要: The present invention relates to a semiconductor device including at least one n-channel field effect transistor (n-FET). Specifically, the n-FET includes first and second patterned stressor layers that both contain a carbon-substituted and tensilely stressed single crystal semiconductor. The first patterned stressor layer has a first carbon concentration and is located in source and drain (S/D) extension regions of the n-FET at a first depth. The second patterned stressor layer has a second, higher carbon concentration and is located in S/D regions of the n-FET at a second, deeper depth. Such an n-FET with the first and second patterned stressor layers of different carbon concentration and different depths provide improved stress profile for enhancing electron mobility in the channel region of the n-FET.

    摘要: In accordance with an aspect of the invention, a method is provided for fabricating a semiconductor chip including a trench capacitor. In such method, a monocrystalline semiconductor region can be etched in a vertical direction through an opening in a dielectric layer to form a trench exposing a rough surface of monocrystalline semiconductor material. The trench has an initial lateral dimension in a first direction transverse to the vertical direction. The semiconductor material exposed at the surface of the trench then is etched in a crystallographic orientation-dependent manner to expose a multiplicity of crystal facets of the semiconductor material at the trench surface. A dopant-containing liner may then be deposited to line the surface of the trench and a temperature of the substrate then be elevated to drive a dopant from the dopant-containing liner into the semiconductor region adjacent to the surface. During such step, typically a portion of the semiconductor material exposed at the wall is oxidized. At least some of the oxidized portion is removed to expose a wall of an enlarged trench, along which wall a dielectric layer and conductive material are formed in order to form a trench capacitor.
