Embodiment Construction
[0034] As mentioned in the background, the performance of the FinFET with the stress layer still needs to be improved.
[0035] In FinFETs, such as figure 1 As shown, the gate structure 103 includes: a gate dielectric layer located on the top and sidewall surfaces of the fin portion 101, a gate layer located on the surface of the gate dielectric layer, and sidewalls located on the gate dielectric layer and the sidewall surfaces of the gate layer . The sidewalls and top of the fin 101 covered by the gate structure 103 can form a channel region.
[0036] When the stress layer is formed in the FinFET, the stress layer is formed on the surface of the fin portion 101 on both sides of the gate structure 103 . In order for the stress layer to provide sufficient stress to the channel region, the formed stress layer needs to have a sufficient thickness, resulting in a larger thickness of the stress layer located on the top and sidewall surfaces of the fin portion 101, so that the gat...
