INDUCING LOCALIZED STRAIN IN VERTICAL NANOWIRE TRANSISTORS |
摘要 |
A device includes a semiconductor substrate and a vertical nano-wire over the semiconductor substrate. The vertical nano-wire includes a bottom source/drain region, a channel region over the bottom source/drain region, and a top source/drain region over the channel region. A top Inter-Layer Dielectric (ILD) encircles the top source/drain region. The device further includes a bottom ILD encircling the bottom source/drain region, a gate electrode encircling the channel region, and a strain-applying layer having vertical portions on opposite sides of, and contacting opposite sidewalls of, the top ILD, the bottom ILD, and the gate electrode. |
