ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1109/IEDM.2007.4418882 | Abstract: | We report a new silicon-germanium-tin (SiGeSn) source and drain stressor with large lattice-mismatch with respect to Si or SiGe for channel strain engineering, and its integration in a SiGe-channel p-FET for performance enhancement. A novel CMOS-compatible process was developed to incorporate Sn in SiGe S/D with high levels of Sn-substitutionality: Sn implant into Si 0.75Ge0.25 source and drain (S/D) regions, followed by either excimer Laser annealing (LA) or Solid Phase Epitaxy (SPE) to restore S/D crystallinity. Sub-50 nm p-FETs were fabricated. With a substitutional Sn concentration of 8% in SiGe S/D regions, equivalent to forming Si 0.4Ge0.6 in the S/D region, enhancement of I Dsat and hole mobility are 82% and 135%, respectively, over control p-FETs without Sn incorporation. With the first demonstration of SiGeSn S/D stressors, we provide a technology extension to SiGe S/D technology for further p-FET enhancement. © 2007 IEEE. | Source Title: | Technical Digest - International Electron Devices Meeting, IEDM | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/84182 | ISSN: | 01631918 | DOI: | 10.1109/IEDM.2007.4418882 |
