Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / in a patent
French term or phrase: région de canal contrainte en tension
contexte:
* 1. Dispositif semiconducteur du type silicium sur isolant


** Dispositif selon l’une des revendications précédentes, dans lequel ledit au moins un transistor NMOS comporte une région de canal contrainte en tension (STRN), dans le film semiconducteur respectif (FLMn), et ledit au moins un transistor PMOS comporte une région de canal contrainte en compression (CMPR), dans le film semiconducteur respectif (FLMp).

English translation:region of the channel under tensile strain
Explanation:
With a FET, the 'canal' is the 'channel'
This would appear to be mechanical tension / compression — though the reason for this is not immediately apprent.
Depending on the physical configuration, it might also be 'area' — but we do indeed talk about 'regions' in this context.

agree  José Patrício: a constraint in compression can be exerted on the channel area - https://patents.google.com/patent/FR2979482A1/en

  -> Thanks, José!
agree  philgoddard: Strained channel region (try Googling it). And it increases electron mobility, apparently.

  -> Thanks, Phil! Perhaps related in some way with the piezoelectric effect...?
