    Abstract: A semiconductor device including a seeding layer in the source/drain region and a method of forming is provided. The semiconductor device may include a plurality of nanostructures over a substrate, a gate wrapping around the plurality of nanostructures, a source/drain region adjacent the plurality of nanostructures, and inner spacers between the source/drain region and the gate stack. The source/drain region may include a polycrystalline seeding layer covering sidewalls of the plurality of nanostructures and sidewalls of the inner spacers, and a semiconductor layer over the seeding layer. The semiconductor layer may have a higher dopant concentration than the seeding layer.
