Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method of forming a semiconductor device. A non-limiting example of the method includes forming a semiconductor layer within or on a portion of a substrate, wherein the semiconductor layer includes a first type of semiconductor material. A gate stack is formed over a first exposed surface of the semiconductor layer. A first hydrogenated and doped semiconductor layer is formed over a second exposed surface of the semiconductor layer. A second hydrogenated and doped semiconductor layer is formed over a third exposed surface of the semiconductor layer, wherein a lateral dimension of the first hydrogenated and doped semiconductor layer terminates at a first sidewall of the gate stack, and wherein a lateral dimension of the second hydrogenated and doped semiconductor layer terminates at a second sidewall of the gate stack.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 9 , wherein the non-crystalline regions of the layer of hydrogenated and doped semiconductor material is removed selectively relative to the crystalline regions of the layer of hydrogenated and doped semiconductor material using a hydrogen plasma.
