Effects of mechanical stress on the performance of metal-oxide-semiconductor transistors

Stress engineering is widely used in the microelectronics industry to improve the on-current (Ion) performance of the metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistors through the strain-induced mobility enhancement. However, there are still debates regarding the relevance of the low-field mobility in the...
