摘要
A physical model is directly extended from the thermodynamic framework to deal with anisotropic diffusion in uniaxially stressed silicon. With the anisotropy of the uniaxial strain induced activation energy as input, two fundamental material parameters, the activation volume and the migration strain anisotropy, can be quantitatively determined. When applied to boron, a process- device coupled simulation is performed on a p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor undergoing uniaxial stress in a manufacturing process. The resulting material parameters have been found to be in satisfactory agreement with values presented in the literature. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
