Abstract
A semiconductor device may include a substrate and at least one MOSFET adjacent the substrate including a superlattice. The superlattice may include a plurality of stacked groups of layers and a semiconductor cap layer on an uppermost group of layers. Each group of layers of the superlattice may comprise a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion and at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within a crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions. The MOSFET may further include source, drain, and gate regions defining a channel through at least a portion of the semiconductor cap layer.
