Abstract
The present invention discloses a semiconductor structure and a method for manufacturing the same, which comprises providing a substrate, and forming a stress layer, a buried oxide layer, and an SOI layer on the substrate; forming a doped region of the stress layer arranged in a specific position in the stress layer; forming an oxide layer and a nitride layer on the SOI layer, and forming a first trench that etches the nitride layer, the oxide layer, the SOI layer, and the buried oxide layer, and stops on the upper surface of the stress layer, and exposes at least part of the doped region of the stress layer; forming a cavity by wet etching through the first trench to remove the doped region of the stress layer; forming a polycrystalline silicon region of the stress layer and a second trench by filling the cavity with polycrystalline silicon and etching back; forming an isolation region by filling the second trench. The semiconductor structure and the method for manufacturing the same disclosed in the present invention provide a favorable stress for the channel of the semiconductor device by introducing a stress layer and a stress induced zone set at specific positions depending on device type to help improving the performance of the semiconductor device.
