A semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing are provided. A substrate has a gate stack formed thereon. Ultra-shallow junctions are formed by depositing an atomic layer of a dopant and performing an anneal to diffuse the dopant into the substrate on opposing sides of the gate stack. The substrate may be recessed prior to forming the atomic layer and the recess may be filled by an epitaxial process. The depositing, annealing, and, if used, epitaxial growth may be repeated a plurality of times to achieve the desired junctions. Source/drain regions are also provided on opposing sides of the gate stack.
