Abstract
The carrier mobility in transistor channel regions of Si—Ge devices is increased by employing a stressed liner. Embodiments include applying a high compressive or tensile stressed film overlying relaxed source/drain regions. Other embodiments include applying a high compressively or high tensilely stressed film, after post silicide spacer removal, over gate electrodes and strained Si source/drain regions of P-channel or N-channel transistors, respectively.
