The potential of strained DOTFET technology is demonstrated. This technology uses a SiGe island as a stressor for a Si capping layer, into which the transistor channel is integrated. The structure information is extracted from AFM measurements of fabricated samples. Strain on the upper surface of a 30 nm thick Si layer is in the range of 0.7%, as supported by finite element calculations. The Ge content...
