    摘要: A semiconductor device is fabricated with a protective liner and/or layer. Well regions and isolation regions are formed within a semiconductor body. A gate dielectric layer is formed over the semiconductor body. A gate electrode layer, such as polysilicon, is formed on the gate dielectric layer. A protective gate liner is formed on the gate electrode layer. A resist mask is formed that defines gate structures. The gate electrode layer is patterned to form the gate structures. Offset spacers are formed on lateral edges of the gate structures and extension regions are then formed in the well regions. Sidewall spacers are then formed on the lateral edges of the gate structures. An NMOS protective region layer is formed that covers the NMOS region of the device. A recess etch is performed within the PMOS region followed by formation of strain inducing recess structures.
