Abstract

An integrated circuit and method for forming an integrated circuit. There are at least three field-effect transistors with at least two of the field-effect transistors having the same electrically insulating material which is ferroelectric when unstrained or is capable of being ferroelectric when strain is induced. It is optional for the third field-effect transistor to have an electrically insulating material which is ferroelectric when unstrained or is capable of being ferroelectric when strain is induced. The at least three field-effect transistors are strained to varying amounts so that each of the three field-effect transistors has a threshold voltage, Vt, which is different from the Vt of the two other field-effect transistors.
