  • Patent number: 9136320
    Abstract: A field effect transistor includes a semiconductor substrate having a protrusion with at least one inclined surface, a gate insulator disposed at least on a portion of the inclined surface, and a gate conductor disposed on the gate insulator, wherein the semiconductor substrate comprises doped regions sandwiching a channel region, wherein the at least one inclined surface has a first crystal orientation in the channel region, and the inclined surface has an included angle to a vertical plane with a second crystal orientation. The hole mobility and the electron mobility are substantially the same in the channel region having a crystalline orientation off from the (110) crystal orientation.

  • Patent number: 9000464
    Abstract: A semiconductor structure includes a temporary substrate; a first semiconductor layer positioned on the temporary substrate; a dielectric layer comprising a plurality of patterned nano-scaled protrusions disposed on the first semiconductor layer; a dielectric layer surrounding the plurality of patterned nano-scaled protrusions and disposed on the first semiconductor layer; and a second semiconductor layer positioned on the dielectric layer, wherein the top surfaces of the patterned nano-scaled protrusions are in contact with the bottom of the second semiconductor layer. An etching process is performed on the semiconductor structure to separate the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer, in order to detach the temporary substrate from the second semiconductor layer and transfer the second semiconductor layer to a permanent substrate.
