A new MOS transistor is described. The transistor has a source/drain region that comprises 3 portions. Each portion is the result of a separate ion implant step. The combination of the three portions of the source/drain region yields a transistor of superior performance with high drive current, low sub-threshold current and gate-edge leakage.

A method for forming STI that allows for in-situ moat/trench width electrical measurement is disclosed herein. A conductive layer (18) is used in the hard mask (20) for trench etch. After the hard mask (20) is formed and the trench (12) is etched, the resistance of the conductive layer (18) is measured over a predefined length. Since the length is known, the average width of the hard mask (20)/moat (11) can be determined. Once the width of the moat (11) is known, the width of the trench (12) can easily be determined by subtracting the width of the moat (12) from the pitch, which is a known factor.

The disclosure provides a semiconductor device and method of manufacture therefore. The method for manufacturing the semiconductor device, in one embodiment, includes providing a substrate (210) having a PMOS device region (220) and NMOS device region (260). Thereafter, a first gate structure (240) and a second gate structure (280) are formed over the PMOS device region and the NMOS device region, respectively. Additionally, recessed epitaxial SiGe regions (710) may be formed in the substrate on opposing sides of the first gate structure. Moreover, first source/drain regions may be formed on opposing sides of the first gate structure and second source/drain regions on opposing sides of the second gate structure. The first source/drain regions and second source/drain regions may then be annealed to form activated first source/drain regions (1110) and activated second source/drain regions (1120), respectively. Additionally, recessed epitaxial carbon doped silicon regions (1410) may be formed in the substrate on opposing sides of the second gate structure after annealing.

An n-type isolation structure is disclosed which includes an n-type BISO layer in combination with a shallow n-well, in an IC. The n-type BISO layer is formed by implanting n-type dopants into a p-type IC substrate in addition to a conventional n-type buried layer (NBL), prior to growth of a p-type epitaxial layer. The n-type dopants in the BISO implanted layer diffuse upward from the p-type substrate to between one-third and two-thirds of the thickness of the p-type epitaxial layer. The shallow n-type well extends from a top surface of the p-type epitaxial layer to the n-type BISO layer, forming a continuous n-type isolation structure from the top surface of the p-type epitaxial layer to the p-type substrate. The width of the n-type BISO layer may be less than the thickness of the epitaxial layer, and may be used alone or with the NBL to isolate components in the IC.
