Embodiment Construction

[0029] The lattice constants of carbon, silicon, and germanium are 3.567 angstroms, 5.431 angstroms, and 5.646 angstroms, respectively. In pseudomorphic SiC on relaxed Si, or pseudomorphic Si on relaxed SiGe or Ge substrates, there is biaxial tensile strain, which means that in pseudomorphic materials, in the growth plane (surface) the lattice The constant is larger and the lattice constant is smaller along the growth direction (perpendicular to the surface). On the other hand, in pseudomorphic SiGe on relaxed Si, or pseudocrystalline Ge on relaxed SiGe, there is compressive strain, which means that in pseudomorphic materials, the lattice constant is much lower in the growth plane (surface). Small and larger along the growth direction (perpendicular to the surface) lattice constant. The addition of small amounts of carbon (figure 1 The conduction and valence bands of compressively strained SiGe or SiGe(C) on relaxed silicon are shown by curves 2 and 3, respectively. The hole...

Abstract

A method for forming and the structure of a vertical channel of a field effect transistor, a field effect transistor and CMOS circuitry are described incorporating a drain, body and source region on a sidewall of a vertical single crystal semiconductor structure wherein a hetero-junction is formed between the source and body of the transistor, wherein the source region and channel are independently lattice strained with respect the body region and wherein the drain region contains a carbon doped region to prevent the diffusion of dopants (i.e., B and P) into the body. The invention reduces the problem of short channel effects such as drain induced barrier lowering and the leakage current from the source to drain regions via the hetero-junction and while independently permitting lattice strain in the channel region for increased mobility via choice of the semiconductor materials. The problem of scalability of the gate length below 100 nm is overcome by the heterojunction between the source and body regions.
