ABSTRACT:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device uses selective epitaxial growth (SEG), by which leakage current generation is minimized using lateral SEG growth in case a contact intrudes a shallow track isolation feature. The method includes steps of forming a sidewall spacer on a gate, selectively growing an epitaxial layer in a lateral direction relative to the sidewall spacer and the gate, and forming a contact on the epitaxial layer.
