    摘要: An example embodiments are structures and methods for forming an FET with embedded stressor S/D regions (e.g., SiGe), a doped layer below the embedded S/D region adjacent to the isolation regions, and a stressor liner over reduced spacers of the FET gate. An example method comprising the following. We provide a gate structure over a first region in a substrate. The gate structure is comprised of gate dielectric, a gate, and sidewall spacers. We provide isolation regions in the first region spaced from the gate structure; and a channel region in the substrate under the gate structure. We form S/D recesses in the first region in the substrate adjacent to the sidewall spacers. We form S/D stressor regions filling the S/D recesses. The S/D stressor regions can be thicker adjacent to the gate structure than adjacent to the isolation regions; We implant dopant ions into the S/D stressor regions and into the substrate below the S/D stressor regions adjacent to the isolation regions to form upper stressor doped regions.

    摘要: 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.

    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.

    摘要: A system for using recent activity information to select backup versions of storage objects for restoration comprises a processor and memory coupled to the processor, where the memory stores program instructions computer-executable by the processor to implement a backup manager. The backup manager is configured to maintain one or more backup versions of a plurality of storage objects and a plurality of access history records, where each access history record is associated with a particular backup version. Each access history record includes information indicative of an access to the corresponding storage object by a user. The backup manager may be configured to select a particular backup version as a restoration candidate using at least the contents of the access history record associated with the backup version.

    摘要: A semiconductor structure that includes a monocrystalline germanium-containing layer, preferably substantially pure germanium, a substrate, and a buried insulator layer separating the germanium-containing layer from the substrate. A porous layer, which may be porous silicon, is formed on a substrate and a germanium-containing layer is formed on the porous silicon layer. The porous layer may be converted to a layer of oxide, which provides the buried insulator layer. Alternatively, the germanium-containing layer may be transferred from the porous layer to an insulating layer on another substrate. After the transfer, the insulating layer is buried between the latter substrate and the germanium-containing layer.
