    Abstract: Disclosed herein are stacked channel structures for metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) and related circuit elements, computing devices, and methods. For example, a stacked channel structure may include: a semiconductor substrate having a substrate lattice constant; a fin extending away from the semiconductor substrate, the fin having an upper region and a lower region; a first transistor in the lower region, wherein the first transistor has a first channel, the first channel has a first lattice constant, and the first lattice constant is different from the substrate lattice constant; and a second transistor in the upper region, wherein the second transistor has a second channel, the second channel has a second lattice constant, and the second lattice constant is different from the substrate lattice constant.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for incorporating high mobility strained channels into fin-based transistors (e.g., FinFETs such as double-gate, trigate, etc), wherein a stress material is cladded onto the channel area of the fin. In one example embodiment, silicon germanium (SiGe) is cladded onto silicon fins to provide a desired stress, although other fin and cladding materials can be used. The techniques are compatible with typical process flows, and the cladding deposition can occur at a plurality of locations within the process flow. In some cases, the built-in stress from the cladding layer may be enhanced with a source/drain stressor that compresses both the fin and cladding layers in the channel. In some cases, an optional capping layer can be provided to improve the gate dielectric / semiconductor interface. In one such embodiment, silicon is provided over a SiGe cladding layer to improve the gate dielectric / semiconductor interface.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to formation of fins with different active channel heights in a tri-gate or a Fin-FET device. In an embodiment, at least two fins are formed on a front side of the substrate. A gate structure extends over a top surface and a pair of sidewalls of at least a portion of the fins. In an embodiment, the substrate is thinned to expose the bottom surface of the fins. Next, backside etching may be performed on each fin to form active channel regions. The fins may be recessed to different depths, forming active channel regions with differing heights.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for incorporating high mobility strained channels into fin-based NMOS transistors (e.g., FinFETs such as double-gate, frigate, etc), wherein a stress material is cladded onto the channel area of the fin. In one example embodiment, a germanium or silicon germanium film is cladded onto silicon fins in order to provide a desired tensile strain in the core of the fin, although other fin and cladding materials can be used. The techniques are compatible with typical process flows, and cladding deposition can occur at a plurality of locations within typical process flow, in various embodiments, fins may be formed with a minimum width (or later thinned) so as to improve transistor performance. In some embodiments, a thinned fin also increases tensile strain across the core of a cladded fin. In some cases, strain in the core may be further enhanced by adding an embedded silicon epitaxial source and drain.
