Silicon/silcion germaninum/silicon body device with embedded carbon dopant

摘要

A semiconductor structure and method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, and more particularly, an NFET device. The devices includes a stress receiving layer provided over a stress inducing layer with a material at an interface there between which reduces the occurrence and propagation of misfit dislocations in the structure. The stress receiving layer is silicon (Si), the stress inducing layer is silicon-germanium (SiGe) and the material is carbon which is provided by doping the layers during formation of the device. The carbon can be doped throughout the whole of the SiGe layer also.
