We systematically study the strain effects on high-field carrier velocity (v) in (100) and (110) short-channel n/pFETs by means of substrate bending experiment. v and I<inf>dsat</inf> increase by strain is determined not only by low-field mobility (μ) enhancement (Δμ/μ) but also by the modulation of saturation velocity (v<inf>sat</inf>). It is found that v<inf>sat</inf> increases more by strain in smaller-Δμ/μ devices. The difference of Δμ/μ is compensated by v<inf>sat</inf> change. As a result, Δv/v of (100)/(110) n/pFETs converge in sub-30nm regime. The superiority of (110) CMOS to (100) CMOS is maintained in terms of both I<inf>dlin</inf> and I<inf>dsat</inf> at highly-strained conditions.
