Multi-thickness silicide device formed by disposable spacers

摘要

A transistor device formed on a semiconductor-on-insulator (SOI) substrate with a buried oxide (BOX) layer disposed thereon and an active layer disposed on the BOX layer having active regions defined by isolation trenches. The device includes a gate defining a channel interposed between a source and a drain formed within the active region of the SOI substrate. Further, the device includes a plurality of thin silicide layers formed on the source and the drain. Additionally, at least an upper silicide layer of the plurality of thin silicide layers extends beyond a lower silicide layer. Further still, the device includes a disposable spacer used in the formation of the device. The device further includes a second plurality of thin silicide layers formed on a polysilicon electrode of the gate.
