مستخلص: In this letter, the SiGe-channel PMOS transistors integrated with a highly compressive contact-etching stop-layer (CESL) interlayer-dielectric-SiNx stressing layer have been successfully fabricated. The performance improvements of devices with a gate length (Lg) of down to 40 nm were studied. For long-channel SiGe-channel PMOS, the mobility is at least +50% higher than that of the conventional bulk-Si PMOS. Moreover, compared to the conventional short-channel SiGe-channel devices, the highly compressive CESL stressor shows +32% current gain for Lg = 40 nm PMOS with the thinnest 9Å Si-cap. Therefore, integrating the stressed CESL technique into the SiGe-channel structure is an efficient method for improving PMOS device performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
