发明名称 Re-crystallization for boosting stress in MOS device
摘要 A method includes forming a dummy gate stack over a semiconductor substrate, removing the dummy gate stack to form a recess, and implanting a portion of the semiconductor substrate through the recess. During the implantation, an amorphous region is formed from the portion of the semiconductor substrate. The method further includes forming a strained capping layer, wherein the strained capping layer extends into the recess. An annealing is performed on the amorphous region to re-crystallize the amorphous region. The strained capping layer is then removed.

主权项 1. A method comprising: forming a dummy gate stack over a semiconductor substrate; removing the dummy gate stack thereby forming a recess; implanting a portion of the semiconductor substrate through the recess, wherein an amorphous region is formed from the portion of the semiconductor substrate; forming a strained capping layer, wherein the strained capping layer extends into the recess; performing an annealing on the amorphous region to re-crystallize the amorphous region; and then removing the strained capping layer.
