ABSTRACT:
A gate insulator layer is formed over the semiconductor substrate and a first silicon layer is then formed over the gate insulator layer. An anti-reflection layer is formed over the first silicon layer. A gate region is defined by removing a portion of the gate insulator layer, of the first silicon layer, and of the anti-reflection layer. A doping step using low energy implantation or plasma immersion is carried out to dope the substrate to form an extended sourcedrain junction in the substrate under a region uncovered by the gate region. An undoped spacer structure is formed on sidewalls of the gate region and the anti-reflection layer is then removed. A second silicon layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate and the first silicon layer. Another doping step is performed to dope the substrate to form a source/drain junction in the substrate under a region uncovered by the gate region and the undoped spacer structure. A thermal process is performed to the semiconductor substrate, in order to diffuse and activate dopants in the extended source/drain junction and the source/drain junction.
