摘要： A method of fabricating a CMOS integrated circuit includes the steps of providing a substrate having a semiconductor surface, forming a gate dielectric and a plurality of gate electrodes thereon in both NMOS and PMOS regions using the surface. A multi-layer offset spacer stack including a top layer and a compositionally different bottom layer is formed and the multi-layer spacer stack is etched to form offset spacers on sidewalls of the gate electrodes. The transistors designed to utilize a thinner offset spacer are covered with a first masking material, and transistors designed to utilize a thicker offset spacer are patterned and first implanted. At least a portion of the top layer is removed to leave the thinner offset spacers on sidewalls of the gate electrodes. The transistors designed to utilize the thicker offset spacer are covered with a second masking material, and the transistors designed to utilize the thinner offset spacer are patterned and second implanted. The fabrication of the integrated circuit is then completed.

摘要： A method of forming a transistor device is provided wherein a gate structure is formed over a semiconductor body of a first conductivity type. The gate structure is formed comprising a protective cap thereover and defining source/drain regions laterally adjacent thereto. A first implant is performed of a second conductivity type into both the gate structure and the source/drain regions. The semiconductor body is etched to form recesses substantially aligned to the gate structure wherein the first implant is removed from the source/drain regions. Source/drain regions are implanted or grown by a selective epitaxial growth.
