Abstract: A structure and method for forming raised source/drain structures in a NFET device and embedded SiGe source/drains in a PFET device. We provide a NFET gate structure over a NFET region in a substrate and PFET gate structure over a PFET region. We provide NFET SDE regions adjacent to the NFET gate and provide PFET SDE regions adjacent to the PFET gate. We form recesses in the PFET region in the substrate adjacent to the PFET second spacers. We form a PFET embedded source/drain stressor in the recesses. We form a NFET S/D epitaxial Si layer over the NFET SDE regions and a PFET S/D epitaxial Si layer over PFET embedded source/drain stressor. The epitaxial Si layer over PFET embedded source/drain stressor is consumed in a subsequent salicide step to form a stable and low resistivity silicide over the PFET embedded source/drain stressor.

Abstract: Babassuamadopropalkonium chloride is quaternary ammonium compounds obtained from natural babassu oil that contains a high level of lauric acid, and it has been used as mild conditioner. We found that babassuamadopropalkonium chloride has strong and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity especially with bisabolol. Bisabolol is the active component of Chamomile, one of the most used medical plants, and has been used as anti-irritant. We found that there is a synergistic effect of bisabolol on hinokitiol, when combined with ethylhexylglycerin or caprylyl glycol. This synergistic effect of composition of bisabolol and ethylhexylglycerin can reduce the required amount of hinokitiol, which if used in high amount can be unstable by more than 100 times.
