Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure is shown. A first gate of a first device and a second gate of a second device are formed over a semiconductor substrate. First LDD regions are formed in the substrate beside the first gate using the first gate as a mask. A conformal layer is formed covering the first gate, the second gate and the substrate, wherein the conformal layer has sidewall portions on sidewalls of the second gate. Second LDD regions are formed in the substrate beside the second gate using the second gate and the sidewall portions of the conformal layer as a mask.

Abstract: In a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, a fin structure including a first semiconductor layer, an oxide layer disposed over the first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer disposed over the oxide layer is formed. An isolation insulating layer is formed so that the second semiconductor layer of the fin structure protrudes from the isolation insulating layer while the oxide layer and the first semiconductor layer are embedded in the isolation insulating layer. A third semiconductor layer is formed on the exposed second semiconductor layer so as to form a channel.
