发明名称 Semiconductor structure and method for forming the same
摘要 A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the same are provided. The structure comprises a semiconductor substrate (100) with an nMOSFET region (102) and a pMOSFET region (104) on it. An nMOSFET structure and a pMOSFET structure are formed in the nMOSFET region (102) and the pMOSFET region (104), respectively. The nMOSFET structure comprises a first channel region (182) formed in the nMOSFET region (102) and a first gate stack formed in the first channel region (182). The nMOSFET structure is covered with a compressive-stressed material layer (130) to apply a tensile stress to the first channel region (182). The pMOSFET structure comprises a second channel region (184) formed in the pMOSFET region (104) and a second gate stack formed in the second channel region (184). The pMOSFET structure is covered with a tensile-stressed material layer (140) to apply a compressive stress to the second channel region (184).
