The impact of uni-axial strain from embedded SiGe in recessed S/D (e-SiGe) and Ge implanted S/D (i-SiGe) on effective mobility mu(eff), gate leakage current, short channel effect (SCE) and low frequency noise (LFN) in pMOS has been investigated. The e-SiGe can realize superior mu(eff) enhancement but lead to worse SeE and LFN. The i-SiGe can reduce SeE and LFN but suffers limited mu(eff) improvement. Mobility fluctuation model can explain the trade-off and forward body biases (FBB) method can overcome the trade-off. SiGe strain combined with FBB is an effective solution in nanoscale pMOS to enhance RF and analog performance.
