Semiconductor devices and methods of making the same include forming a first channel region on a first semiconductor region. A second channel region is formed on a second semiconductor region, the second semiconductor region being formed from a semiconductor material that is different from a semiconductor material of the first semiconductor region. A gate dielectric layer is formed over one or more of the first and second channel regions. A nitrogen-containing layer is formed on the gate dielectric layer. A gate is formed on the gate dielectric.

A method for forming semiconductor devices includes forming a highly doped region. A stack of alternating layers is formed on the substrate. The stack is patterned to form nanosheet structures. A dummy gate structure is formed over and between the nanosheet structures. An interlevel dielectric layer is formed. The dummy gate structures are removed. SG regions are blocked, and top sheets are removed from the nanosheet structures along the dummy gate trench. A bottommost sheet is released and forms a channel for a field effect transistor device by etching away the highly doped region under the nanosheet structure and layers in contact with the bottommost sheet. A gate structure is formed in and over the dummy gate trench wherein the bottommost sheet forms a device channel for the EG device.

A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device according to a disclosed embodiment includes: implanting a first impurity into a first region of a semiconductor substrate, forming a semiconductor layer on the semiconductor substrate, forming a trench in the semiconductor layer and the semiconductor substrate, forming an isolation insulating film in the trench, implanting a second impurity into a second region of the semiconductor layer, forming a first gate insulating film and a first gate electrode in the first region, forming a second gate insulating film and a second gate electrode in the second region, forming a first source region and a first drain region at both sides of the first gate electrode, and forming a second source region and a second drain region at both sides of the second gate electrode.

Provided are a low-cost semiconductor device manufacturing method and a semiconductor device made using the method. The method includes forming multiple body regions in a semiconductor substrate, forming multiple gate insulating layers and multiple gate electrodes in the body region; implementing a blanket ion implantation in an entire surface of the substrate to form a low concentration doping region (LDD region) in the body region without a mask, forming a spacer at a side wall of the gate electrode, and implementing a high concentration ion implantation to form a high concentration source region and a high concentration drain region around the LDD region. According to the examples, devices have favorable electrical characteristics and at the same time, manufacturing costs are reduced. Since, when forming high concentration source region and drain regions, tilt and rotation co-implants are applied, an LDD masking step is potentially omitted.

A silicon germanium alloy (SiGe) fin having a first germanium content is provided within first and second device regions. Each SiGe fin is located on a sacrificial material stack and an oxide material surrounds each SiGe fin. A germanium layer is formed atop each SiGe fin within one of the device regions, while a SiGe layer having a second germanium content less than the first germanium content is formed atop each SiGe fin within the other device region. An exposed surface of each of the germanium layer and the SiGe layer is then bonded to a base substrate. The sacrificial material stack is removed and thereafter the oxide material is recessed to expose a portion of each SiGe fin in the first and second device regions. Each SiGe fin contacting the germanium layer compressively strained, and each SiGe fin contacting the SiGe layer is tensely strained.

A method for forming nanowires includes forming a plurality of epitaxial layers on a substrate, the layers including alternating material layers with high and low Ge concentration and patterning the plurality of layers to form fins. The fins are etched to form recesses in low Ge concentration layers to form pillars between high Ge concentration layers. The pillars are converted to dielectric pillars. A conformal material is formed in the recesses and on the dielectric pillars. The high Ge concentration layers are condensed to form hexagonal Ge wires with (111) facets. The (111) facets are exposed to form nanowires.
