| 摘要 |
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device featuring a high-stress dielectric layer is disclosed. The method involves the deposition of a comparatively thick liner layer that exerts increased strain on an underlying gate and active areas, resulting in enhanced carrier mobility through the transistor and heightened transistor performance. The method also involves the amelioration of fabrication problems that might arise from the deposition of a comparatively thick liner layer by forming such layer with at least a partially direction deposition process. Also disclosed are semiconductor devices manufactured in accordance with the disclosed methods.
