Abstract
Disclosed herein are various methods of forming stressed channel regions on 3D semiconductor devices, such as, for example, FinFET semiconductor devices, through use of epitaxially formed materials. In one example, the method includes forming a plurality of spaced-apart trenches in a semiconducting substrate, wherein the trenches define at least a portion of a fin for the device, and performing an epitaxial deposition process to form an epitaxially formed stress-inducing material in the trenches.
