Patent ID: 10727340

Abstract:
A p-type field effect transistor includes a pair of spacers over a substrate top surface. The p-type field effect transistor includes a channel recess cavity in the substrate top surface between the pair of spacers. The p-type field effect transistor includes a gate stack with a bottom portion in the channel recess cavity. The p-type field effect transistor includes a source/drain (S/D) recess cavity including a bottom surface and sidewalls below the substrate top surface, wherein the S/D recess cavity includes a portion extending below the gate stack. The p-type field effect transistor includes a strained material filling the S/D recess cavity. The p-type field effect transistor further includes a source/drain (S/D) extension substantially conformably surrounding the bottom surface and sidewalls of the S/D recess cavity. The S/D extension includes a portion between the gate stack and the S/D recess cavity.
