Abstract:
In an embodiment, a device includes: a semiconductor substrate; a first fin extending from the semiconductor substrate; a second fin extending from the semiconductor substrate; an epitaxial source/drain region including: a main layer in the first fin and the second fin, the main layer including a first semiconductor material, the main layer having an upper faceted surface and a lower faceted surface, the upper faceted surface and the lower faceted surface each being raised from respective surfaces of the first fin and the second fin; and a semiconductor contact etch stop layer (CESL) contacting the upper faceted surface and the lower faceted surface of the main layer, the semiconductor CESL including a second semiconductor material, the second semiconductor material being different from the first semiconductor material.
