摘要:
A novel transistor structure and method for fabrication the same. The novel transistor structure comprises first and second source/drain (S/D) regions whose top surfaces are lower than a top surface of the channel region of the transistor structure. The method for fabricating the transistor structure starts out with a planar semiconductor layer and a gate stack on top of the semiconductor layer. Then, top regions of the semiconductor layer on opposing sides of the gate stack are removed. Then, regions beneath the removed regions are doped to form lowered S/D regions of the transistor structure

The present invention provides a method in which a low-resistance connection between the MOS channel and silicided source/drain regions is provided that has an independence from the extension ion implant process as well as device overlap capacitance. The method of the present invention broadly includes selectively removing outer spacers of an MOS structure and then selectively plating a metallic or intermetallic material on exposed portions of a semiconductor substrate that were previously protected by the outer spacers. The present invention also provides a semiconductor structure that is formed utilizing the method. The semiconductor structure includes a low-resistance connection between the silicided source/drain regions and the channel regions which includes a selectively plated metallic or intermetallic material.
