  • Patent number: 10090397
    Abstract: A semiconductor device structure is provided. The semiconductor device structure includes a semiconductor substrate and a gate stack positioned over the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor device structure includes spacers positioned over sidewalls of the gate stack. The semiconductor device structure includes a first protective layer positioned between the gate stack and the spacers and between the spacers and the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor device structure includes a second protective layer positioned between the spacers and the first protective layer. The first protective layer and the second protective layer include different materials.
