High performance low power bulk FET device and method of manufacture

摘要

A method of forming a semiconductor device includes: forming a channel of a field effect transistor (FET) in a substrate; forming a heavily doped region in the substrate; and forming recesses adjacent the channel and the heavily doped region. The method also includes: forming an undoped or lightly doped intermediate layer in the recesses on exposed portions of the channel and the heavily doped region; and forming source and drain regions on the intermediate layer such that the source and drain regions are spaced apart from the heavily doped region by the intermediate layer.
