METHOD OF FORMING A SEMICONDUCTOR STRUCTURE

摘要

A method of cleaning a semiconductor structure includes rotating a semiconductor structure. The method of cleaning further includes cleaning the semiconductor structure with a hydrogen fluoride (HF)-containing gas. A method of forming a semiconductor device includes forming a recess in a source/drain (S/D) region of a transistor. The method of forming further includes cleaning the recess with a HF-containing gas, the HF-containing gas having an oxide removing rate of about 2 nanometer/minute (nm/min) or less. The method of forming further includes epitaxially forming a strain structure in the recess after the cleaning the recess, the strain structure providing a strain to a channel region of the transistor.
