ABSTRACT:
A method for forming a self-aligned semiconductor device (10) having sidewall spacers (16,17) used to align the formation of a source region (23) and a drain region (24) along with the formation of a gate structure (35). Spacers (16,17) can be formed using a sacrificial structure process where a sacrificial structure (14) is formed which determines the location of a final gate structure (35). The deposition of a dielectric layer over the sacrificial structure (14) and subsequent etch will form spacers (16,17). A second method for forming spacers (18,19), uses a photolithographic process to pattern a dielectric layer without the use of a sacrificial structure process. The spacers (16,17) are used in conjunction with implant mask regions (22) to form the source and drain regions (23,24) which are aligned to the gate structure (35). The spacers (16,17) are also used to form the gate structure (35) in conjunction with the deposition of a refractory metal layer (32) and a metal layer (33) followed by a Reactive Ion Etch.
