Controlling the shape of source/drain regions in FinFETs
摘要:
An integrated circuit structure includes a fin field-effect transistor (FinFET) including a semiconductor fin over and adjacent to insulation regions; and a source/drain region over the insulation regions. The source/drain region includes a first and a second semiconductor region. The first semiconductor region includes silicon and an element selected from the group consisting of germanium and carbon, wherein the element has a first atomic percentage in the first semiconductor region. The first semiconductor region has an up-slant facet and a down-slant facet. The second semiconductor region includes silicon and the element. The element has a second atomic percentage lower than the first atomic percentage. The second semiconductor region has a first portion on the up-slant facet and has a first thickness. A second portion of the second semiconductor region, if any, on the down-slant facet has a second thickness smaller than the first thickness.
