A process for the preparation of a mosfet - component with tensile stress the deformed substrate

摘要

An exemplary embodiment relates to a method for forming a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). The method includes providing a substrate having a gate formed above the substrate and performing at least one of the following depositing steps: depositing a spacer layer and forming a spacer around a gate and gate insulator located above a layer of silicon above the substrate; depositing an etch stop layer above the spacer, the gate, and the layer of silicon; and depositing a dielectric layer above the etch stop layer. At least one of the depositing a spacer layer, depositing an etch stop layer, and depositing a dielectric layer comprises high compression deposition which increases in tensile strain in the layer of silicon.
