摘要:Embodiment of the present invention provides a method of forming a
semiconductor device. The method includes providing a semiconductor substrate;epitaxially growing a silicon-carbon layer on top of the semiconductor substrate;
amorphizing the silicon-carbon layer; covering the amorphized silicon-carbon layer with astress liner; and subjecting the amorphized silicon-carbon layer to a solid phase epitaxy(SPE) process to form a highly substitutional silicon-carbon film. In one embodiment, thehighly substitutional silicon-carbon film is formed to be embedded stressors in thesource/drain regions of an nFET transistor, and provides tensile stress to a channel regionof the nFET transistor for performance enhancement.
