Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates generally to semiconductor devices, and more particularly, to a structure and method of forming strained <100> n-channel field effect transistor (NFET) fins and adjacent strained <110> p-channel field effect transistor (PFET) fins on the same substrate. A <110> crystalline oxide layer may be either bonded or epitaxially grown on a substrate layer. A first SOI layer with a <100> crystallographic orientation and tensile strain may be bonded to the crystalline oxide layer. A second SOI layer with a <110> crystallographic orientation and compressive strain may be epitaxially grown on the crystalline oxide layer. The first SOI layer may be used to form the fins of a NFET device. The second SOI layer may be used to form the fins of a PFET device.
