摘要:
A method for fabricating an FET device is disclosed. The method includes providing a body over an insulator, with the body having at least one surface adapted to host a device channel. Selecting the body to be Si, Ge, or their alloy mixtures. Choosing the body layer to be less than a critical thickness defined as the thickness where agglomeration may set in during a high temperature processing. Such critical thickness may be about 4 nm for a planar devices, and about 8 nm for a non-planar devices. The method further includes clearing surfaces of oxygen at low temperature, and forming a raised source/drain by selective epitaxy while using the cleared surfaces for seeding. After the clearing of the surfaces of oxygen, and before the selective epitaxy, oxygen exposure of the cleared surfaces is being prevented.
