Abstract

See full text

The embodiments of processes and structures described above provide mechanisms for improving mobility of carriers. The dislocations in the source and drain regions and the strain created by the doped epitaxial materials next to the channel region of a transistor both contribute to the strain in the channel region. As a result, the device performance is improved.
