摘要:
Methods of forming field effect transistors include selectively etching source and drain region trenches into a semiconductor region using a gate electrode as an etching mask. An epitaxial growth process is performed to fill the source and drain region trenches. Silicon germanium (SiGe) source and drain regions may be formed using an epitaxial growth process. During this growth process the bottoms and sidewalls of the trenches may be used as “seeds” for the silicon germanium growth. An epitaxial growth step may then be performed to define silicon capping layers on the SiGe source and drain regions.

摘要:
The present invention is directed to a damascene process using different kinds of metals is provided. An interlayer dielectric is formed to cover a semiconductor substrate. A contact hole is formed to expose the semiconductor substrate through the interlayer dielectric. A groove is formed to overlap the contact hole. A first barrier metal layer is conformally formed. A first seed layer is conformally formed. A first conductive layer is formed to fill a contact hole below the groove. A second conductive layer is formed to fill the groove. According to the damascene process, a CMP process for a tungsten layer is not needed such that total process cost is reduced and the overall general process is simplified.
