Abstract
An integrated circuit structure includes a vertical stack including a first device, and a second device above the first device. The first device includes (i) a first source and first drain region, (ii) a first body laterally between the first source and drain regions, (iii) a first source contact including a first conductive material, and (iv) a first drain contact including the first conductive material. The second device includes (i) a second source and second drain region, (ii) a second body laterally between the second source and drain regions, (iii) a second source contact including a second conductive material, and (iv) a second drain contact including the second conductive material. In an example, the first and second conductive materials are compositionally different. In an example, the first conductive material induces compressive strain on the first body, and the second conductive material induces tensile strain on the second body.
