Nanoscale SOI strain engineering: STRASS-enabled local stress optimization
As device dimensions continue to shrink, improving electrical performance has become a major challenge in realizing the next generation of FDSOI transistors. One of the key strategies to improve electrical performance is to introduce mechanical stress into the transistor channel to increase carrier mobility. We have investigated two strategies for achieving localized strain using the STRASS process. We have also compared the effectiveness of these approaches, focusing on (i) strain relaxation as device dimensions are reduced and (ii) the effect of Si0.7Ge0.3 layer thickness on the resulting stress. We have demonstrated uniaxial stresses > 0.8 GPa in active-like structures with W = 130 nm width.
