By forming MOSFETs on a substrate having pre-existing ridges of semiconductor material (i.e., a “corrugated substrate”), the resolution limitations associated with conventional semiconductor manufacturing processes can be overcome, and high-performance, low-power transistors can be reliably and repeatably produced. Forming a corrugated substrate prior to actual device formation allows the ridges on the corrugated substrate to be created using high precision techniques that are not ordinarily suitable for device production. MOSFETs that subsequently incorporate the high-precision ridges into their channel regions will typically exhibit much more precise and less variable performance than similar MOSFETs formed using optical lithography-based techniques that cannot provide the same degree of patterning accuracy. Additional performance enhancement techniques such as pulse-shaped doping and “wrapped” gates can be used in conjunction with the segmented channel regions to further enhance device performance.

A MOS device having reduced recesses under a gate spacer and a method for forming the same are provided. The MOS device includes a gate structure overlying the substrate, a sidewall spacer on a sidewall of the gate structure, a recessed region having a recess depth of substantially less than about 30 Å underlying the sidewall spacer, and a silicon alloy region having at least a portion in the substrate and adjacent the recessed region. The silicon alloy region has a thickness of substantially greater than about 30 nm. A shallow recess region is achieved by protecting the substrate when a hard mask on the gate structure is removed. The MOS device is preferably a pMOS device.
