ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device having an elevated gate electrode and elevated active regions and a process for manufacturing such a device is disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment a semiconductor device is formed by forming a gate insulating layer over a substrate and forming a photoresist block over the gate insulating layer. First portions of the gate insulating layer and first portions of the substrate adjacent the photoresist block are then removed to form a first elevated substrate region under the gate insulating layer and photoresist block. Edge portions of the photoresist block are then removed. Second portions of the gate insulating layer and portions of the first elevated substrate region adjacent the photoresist block are then removed to form second elevated substrate regions adjacent the photoresist block, and a dopant is implanted into the second elevated substrate regions to form source/drain regions, and the photoresist block is used to form a gate electrode. In accordance with another embodiment a semiconductor device is formed substantially as above, but the dopant is implanted at an angle relative to the substrate surface.
