    Abstract: A system and method for manufacturing multiple-gate semiconductor devices is disclosed. An embodiment comprises multiple fins, wherein intra-fin isolation regions extend into the substrate less than inter-fin isolation regions. Regions of the multiple fins not covered by the gate stack are removed and source/drain regions are formed from the substrate so as to avoid the formation of voids between the fins in the source/drain region.

    Abstract: Semiconductor structures and methods of fabrication are provided. A method according to the present disclosure includes receiving a workpiece that includes an active region over a substrate and having first semiconductor layers interleaved by second semiconductor layers, and a dummy gate stack over a channel region of the active region, etching source/drain regions of the active region to form source/drain trenches that expose sidewalls of the active region, selectively and partially etching second semiconductor layers to form inner spacer recesses, forming inner spacer features in the inner spacer recesses, forming channel extension features on exposed sidewalls of the first semiconductor layers, forming source/drain features over the source/drain trenches, removing the dummy gate stack, selectively removing the second semiconductor layers to form nanostructures in the channel region, forming a gate structure to wrap around each of the nanostructures. The channel extension features include undoped silicon.

    Abstract: Various methods include providing a substrate, forming a projection extending upwardly from the substrate, the projection having a channel region therein, and forming a gate structure engaging the projection adjacent to the channel region, the gate structure having spaced first and second conductive layers and a strain-inducing conductive layer disposed between the first and second conductive layers. The method also includes forming epitaxial growths on portions of the projection at each side of the gate structure, the epitaxial growths imparting a first strain to the channel region, and imparting a second strain to the channel region, including performing at least one stress memorization technique on the gate structure such that the strain-inducing conductive layer imparts the second strain to the channel region, and removing the capping layer, wherein the imparting the second strain is carried out in a manner that imparts tensile strain to the channel region.
