| 20080206943 | METHOD OF FORMING STRAINED CMOS TRANSISTOR - A method of fabricating CMOS transistor is disclosed. Initially, a semiconductor substrate having at least a first active area and a second active area is provided. A high-strained thin film is formed on the semiconductor substrate, the first active area, and the second active area. Thereafter, a mask is formed to cover a part of the high-strained thin film, which is disposed on the first active area. An implantation is performed to implant dopants into the part of the high-strained thin film on the second active area and to modify the stress status thereof. After that, the mask is removed and a rapid thermal annealing process is performed. Then, the high-strained thin film is removed and the method of the present invention is accomplished. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20080242020 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A MOS TRANSISTOR DEVICE - A method of manufacturing a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor device is disclosed. A semiconductor substrate and a gate structure positioned on the semiconductor substrate are prepared first. A source region and a drain region are included in the semiconductor substrate on two opposite sides of the gate structure. Subsequently, a stressed cap layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and covers the gate structure, the source region and the drain region. Next, an inert gas treatment is performed to change a stress value of the stressed cap layer. Because the stress value of the stressed cap layer can be adjusted easily by means of the present invention, one stressed cap layer can be applied to both the N-type MOS transistor and the P-type MOS transistor. | 10-02-2008 |
