Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to the field of semiconductor technologies, and discloses semiconductor devices and manufacturing methods for the same. A semiconductor device may include: a substrate; a first active region on the substrate; a first gate structure positioned on the first active region; and a first source and a first drain that are positioned in the first active region and respectively on two sides of the first gate structure, where a size of the first drain is larger than a size of the first source. In forms of the present disclosure, because the size of the first drain is larger than the size of the first source, a current from the first drain to the first source is greater than a current from the first source to the first drain, so that the semiconductor device can make a read current relatively low and a write current relatively high in a static random access memory (SRAM), thereby improving a read margin and a write margin.

Claim (Index 16):
The method according to  claim 14 , wherein the step of performing the etching process comprises:\n forming a patterned mask layer on the protective layer, wherein the mask layer exposes a part of the protective layer that covers the first gate structure and covers a part of the first active region that is on two sides of the first gate structure; using the mask layer as a mask, and etching the exposed part of the protective layer on two sides of the first gate structure and the part of the first active region under the protective layer, thereby forming the first depression and the second depression; and removing the mask layer.
