20120097977 | SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND A METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A semiconductor device of the present invention has a (110)-plane-orientation silicon substrate and a p channel type field effect transistor formed in a pMIS region. The p channel type field effect transistor includes a gate electrode disposed via a gate insulation film, and source/drain regions disposed inside a trench disposed in the silicon substrate on the opposite sides of the gate electrode, and including SiGe larger in lattice constant than Si. The trench has a (100)-plane-orientation first inclined surface, and a (100)-plane-orientation second inclined surface crossing the first inclined surface at a sidewall part situated on the gate electrode side. With the configuration, the angle formed between the surface (110) plane and the (100) plane of the substrate is 45°, so that the first inclined surface is formed at a relatively acute angle. This can effectively apply a compressive strain to a channel region of the p channel type MISFET. | 04-26-2012 |
