Patent EP-2782118-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HALIMAOUI AOMAR
IPC: H01L21/02
Filed: 2014-03-19
Abstract: The method involves forming a strained silicon germanium layer by epitaxial growth over a silicon layer (206A) placed on a substrate, and implanting atoms to amorphize the silicon layer and a lower portion (208A) of the silicon germanium layer, without amorphizing a surface portion (208B) of the silicon germanium layer. Annealing is performed to partially relax the silicon germanium layer and to re-crystallize the lower portion of the silicon germanium layer and the silicon layer, so that the silicon layer becomes a strained silicon layer. An independent claim is also included for a transistor device.
