Strained CMOS on strain relaxation buffer substrate
A method for constructing an advanced FinFET structure is described. A first long silicon fin for n-type FinFET devices and a first long silicon germanium fin for p-type FinFET devices are provided on a strain relaxation buffer (SRB) substrate. The first long silicon fin is cut forming a first and a second cut silicon fin so that the first and second cut silicon fin have a vertical face at a fin end. The first long silicon germanium fin is cut forming a first and a second cut silicon germanium fin, the first and the second cut silicon germanium cut fin have a vertical face at a fin end. A tensile dielectric structure is formed which contacts the vertical faces of the first and second cut silicon fins to maintain tensile strain in the first and second cut silicon fins. A compressive dielectric structure is formed which contacts the vertical faces of the silicon germanium fins to maintain compressive strain in the first and second cut silicon germanium fins.
