A method for fabricating strained silicon transistors is disclosed. First, a semiconductor substrate is provided, in which the semiconductor substrate includes a gate, at least a spacer, and a source/drain region formed thereon. Next, a precursor, silane, and ammonia are injected, in which the precursor is reacted with silane and ammonia to form a high compressive stress film on the surface of the gate, the spacer, and the source/drain region. Preferably, the high compressive stress film can be utilized in the fabrication of a poly stressor, a contact etch stop layer, and dual contact etch stop layers.

A method of forming a semiconductor device. The method comprises steps of providing a substrate having a first transistor, a second transistor and non-salicide device formed thereon and the conductive type of the first transistor is different from that of the second transistor. A buffer layer is formed over the substrate and a tensile material layer is formed over the buffer layer. A portion of the tensile material layer over the second transistor is thinned and a spike annealing process is performed. The tensile material layer is removed to expose the buffer layer over the substrate and a patterned salicide blocking layer is formed over the non-salicide device. A salicide process is performed for forming a salicide layer on a portion of the first transistor and the second transistor.

A method of forming a contact is provided. A substrate having at least two metal oxide semiconductor devices is provided and a gap is formed between the two devices. A first stress layer is formed over the substrate to cover the metal-oxide semiconductor devices and the substrate. The first stress layer is formed by first forming a first stress material layer over the substrate to cover the metal-oxide semiconductor devices and to fill the gap, the stress material inside the gap. An etching back process is then performed to remove a portion of the stress material layer inside the gap. A second stress layer and a dielectric layer are sequentially formed on the first stress layer. A portion of the second stress layer is removed to form a contact opening. A first conductive layer is filled into the contact opening to form a contact.

A method of manufacturing a MOS transistor device. First, a semiconductor substrate having a gate structure is prepared. The gate structure has two sidewalls and a liner on the sidewalls. Subsequently, a stressed cap layer is formed on the semiconductor substrate, and covers the gate structure and the liner. Next, an activating process is performed. Furthermore, the stressed cap layer is etched to be a salicide block. Afterward, a salicide process is performed to form a silicide layer on the regions that are not covered by the stressed cap layer.
