Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for providing a low resistance self-aligned contacts to devices formed in a semiconductor heterostructure. The techniques can be used, for example, for forming contacts to the gate, source and drain regions of a quantum well transistor fabricated in III-V and SiGe/Ge material systems. Unlike conventional contact process flows which result in a relatively large space between the source/drain contacts to gate, the resulting source and drain contacts provided by the techniques described herein are self-aligned, in that each contact is aligned to the gate electrode and isolated therefrom via spacer material.

Abstract: A CMOS device includes a PMOS transistor with a first quantum well structure and an NMOS device with a second quantum well structure. The PMOS and NMOS transistors are formed on a substrate.

Abstract: Embodiments described include straining transistor quantum well (QW) channel regions with metal source/drains, and conformal regrowth source/drains to impart a uni-axial strain in a MOS channel region. Removed portions of a channel layer may be filled with a junction material having a lattice spacing different than that of the channel material to causes a uni-axial strain in the channel, in addition to a bi-axial strain caused in the channel layer by a top barrier layer and a bottom buffer layer of the quantum well.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for forming a logic device, including forming an n-type semiconductor device over a silicon (Si) substrate that includes an indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs)-based stack including a first buffer layer, a second buffer layer formed over the first buffer layer, a first device layer formed over the second buffer layer. Further, the method may include forming a p-type semiconductor device over the Si substrate from the InGaAs-based stack and forming an isolation between the n-type semiconductor device and the p-type semiconductor device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
