    摘要: A semiconductor structure comprises a transistor element formed in a substrate. A stressed layer is formed over the transistor element. The stressed layer has a predetermined tensile intrinsic stress of about 900 MPa or more. Due to this high intrinsic stress, the stressed layer exerts considerable elastic forces to the channel region of the transistor element. Thus, tensile stress is created in the channel region. The tensile stress leads to an increase of the electron mobility in the channel region.
