Strain effect in semiconductors: theory and device applications
Sun, Y.
Thompson, S.
Nishida, T.
Strain Effect in Semiconductors: Theory and Device Applications presents the fundamentals and applications of strain in semiconductors and semiconductor devices that is relevant for strain-enhanced advanced CMOS technology and strain-based piezoresistive MEMS transducers. Discusses relevant applications of strain while also focusing on the fundamental physics pertaining to bulk, planar,and scaled nano-devices. Hence, this book is relevant for current strained Silogic technology as well as for understanding the physics and scaling for future strained nano-scale devices. Provides industry relevant applications for strained CMOS technology Discusses range of applications from planar (2D) to nano-wire (1D) devices Treats strain physics at both qualitative overview level as well as detailed fundamental physics Explains strain physics relevant to logic devices as well as strain-based MEMS Sensors and strain in optoelectronic devices INDICE: Stress, strain, piezoresistivity and piezoelectricity.- Strain andsemiconductor crystal symmetry.- Band structures of strained semiconductors.-Low dimensional semiconductor structures.- Semiconductor transport.- Strain in electron devices.- Piezoresistive strain sensors.- Strain effects in optoelectronic devices.- Chapter heading.
