发明名称 Method of forming stepped recesses for embedded strain elements in a semiconductor device
摘要 A method of fabricating a semiconductor transistor device is provided. The fabrication method begins by forming a gate structure overlying a layer of semiconductor material, such as silicon. Then, spacers are formed about the sidewalls of the gate structure. Next, ions of an amorphizing species are implanted into the semiconductor material at a tilted angle toward the gate structure. The gate structure and the spacers are used as an ion implantation mask during this step. The ions form amorphized regions in the semiconductor material. Thereafter, the amorphized regions are selectively removed, resulting in corresponding recesses in the semiconductor material. In addition, the recesses are filled with stress inducing semiconductor material, and fabrication of the semiconductor transistor device is completed.
