Abstract:
A raised source-drain structure is formed using a process wherein a semiconductor structure is received in a process chamber that is adapted to support both an etching process and an epitaxial growth process. This semiconductor structure includes a source region and a drain region, wherein the source and drain regions each include a damaged surface layer. The process chamber is controlled to set a desired atmosphere and set a desired temperature. At the desired atmosphere and temperature, the etching process of process chamber is used to remove the damaged surface layers from the source and drain regions and expose an interface surface. Without releasing the desired atmosphere and while maintaining the desired temperature, the epitaxial growth process of the process chamber is used to grow, from the exposed interface surface, a raised region above each of the source and drain regions.
