Method of fabricating a MOS transistor with a raised source/drain extension

摘要

A method of forming a MOS transistor. According to the method of the present invention, a pair of source/drain contact regions are formed on opposite sides of a gate electrode. After forming the pair of source/drain contact regions, semiconductor material is deposited onto opposite sides of the gate electrode. Dopants are then diffused from the semiconductor material into the substrate beneath the gate electrode to form a pair of source/drain extensions.
