  • Patent number: 7335548
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a metal-oxide-semiconductor transistor is provided. A substrate having a gate structure thereon is provided. A source/drain extension region is formed in the substrate on each side of the gate structure. Thereafter, a carbon-containing material layer is formed over the substrate and then the carbon-containing material layer is etched back to form spacers on the sidewalls of the gate structure. Finally, a source/drain region is formed in the substrate on each side of the spacer-coated gate structure.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 17, 2006
    Date of Patent: February 26, 2008
    Assignee: United Microelectronics Corp.
    Inventors: Yun-Ren Wang, Ying-Wei Yen, Tony E T Liu
