The field encourages or chokes off current in a narrow strip, called the gate channel, that spans the device's so-called source and drain regions.

Shrinking the transistor primarily entails shortening its gate channel, which means that charged particles have a shorter path to follow between the device's source and drain.

Strain makes CMOS transistors work better by enabling electrical charges, such as electrons, to pass more easily through the silicon lattice of the gate channel. When the silicon-crystal lattice is undistorted, it offers obstacles to an electron the way a wrinkled bedsheet impedes a rolling marble, Meyerson suggests.

When deposited on top of the gate channel, the material created tensile stress in the underlying silicon, thereby speeding up electron mobility there.

Instead of adding a compressed layer above or below the gate channel to directly induce compression in the channel itself, Ghani and his colleagues replaced the silicon in the source and drain with silicon-germanium.

Straining for speed: in search of faster electronics, chip makers contort silicon crystals

This allowed him to model only 40 microns of chip in the x direction including half of a drain, one gate channel, and half of a source.

These included: concentrated nodal heat inputs along lines on each side of the gate channel; internal element heat generation in the top layer of gallium arsenide elements between the source and drain; distributed heat flux on the top surface of gallium arsenide elements between the source and drain.
