Embodiment Construction

[0039] As mentioned in the background, there are problems with the device performance of FinFETs formed in the prior art.

[0040] After research, the inventors found that there are many reasons affecting the performance stability of the fin field effect transistor, one of which is: the existing technology forms fins 14 on the surface of the semiconductor substrate (such as figure 1 As shown), when doping ions from the top surface of the fin 14 to the inside of the fin 14, the ion concentration in the middle part of the fin 14 is the highest, and the ion concentration in the fin 14 is from the middle part to the Both ends gradually decrease (doping tail), and there will inevitably be more doping ions at the top of the fin 14, and the fin field effect transistor formed by using the fin 14 with more doping ions on the top , the gate leakage current increases, and the performance of the FinFET is unstable.

[0041] Furthermore, the inventors have found that in the process of for...
