摘要: Strain engineering by lateral relaxation is a powerful method for generating large biaxial and uniaxial silicon strain in an SOI structure. By choosing the crystal direction of features, one should be able to control not only mobility enhancement, but also maximize strain. Uniaxial tensile as 1.0% (100) can achieved 10 nm films.
