Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device as well as a semiconductor device. The method, among other steps, may include forming a gate structure over a substrate, and forming a strain inducing sidewall spacer proximate a sidewall of the gate structure, the strain inducing sidewall configured to introduce strain in a channel region below the gate structure.
