Abstract
The present disclosure relates to semiconductor structures and, more particularly, to a layout optimization for radio frequency (RF) device performance and methods of manufacture. The structure includes: a first active device on a substrate; source and drain diffusion regions adjacent to the first active device; and a first contact in electrical contact with the source and drain diffusion regions and which is spaced away from the first active device to optimize a stress component in a channel region of the first active device.
