    摘要: The present disclosure provides a method for fabricating a semiconductor device that includes providing a silicon substrate, forming a gate stack over the silicon substrate, performing a biased dry etching process to the substrate to remove a portion of the silicon substrate, thereby forming a recess region in the silicon substrate, performing a non-biased etching process to the recess region in the silicon substrate, thereby forming a bottle-neck shaped recess region in the silicon substrate, and epi-growing a semiconductor material in the bottle-neck shaped recess region in the silicon substrate. An embodiment may include a biased dry etching process including adding HeO2 gas and HBr gas. An embodiment may include performing a first biased dry etching process including N2 gas and performing a second biased dry etching process not including N2 gas. An embodiment may include performing an oxidation process to the recess region in the silicon substrate by adding oxygen gas to form silicon oxide on a portion of the recess region in the silicon substrate. As such, these processes form polymer protection to help form the bottle-neck shaped recess.

    摘要: A method for forming a strained channel in a semiconductor device is provided, comprises providing of a transistor comprising a gate stack exposed with a gate electrode on a semiconductor substrate, a pair of source/drain regions in the substrate on opposite sides of the gate stack and a pair of spacers on opposing sidewalls of the gate stack. A passivation layer is formed to cover the gate electrode and spacers of the transistor. A passivation layer is formed to cover the gate electrode and the spacers. A recess region is formed in each of the source/drain regions, wherein an edge of the recess region aligns to an outer edge of the spacers. The recess regions are filled with a strain-exerting material, thereby forming a strained channel region in the semiconductor substrate between the source/drain regions.
