Abstract: The present application provides a semiconductor device and the method of making the same. The method includes recessing a fin extending from a substrate, forming a base epitaxial feature on the recessed fin, forming a bar-like epitaxial feature on the base epitaxial feature, and forming a conformal epitaxial feature on the bar-like epitaxial feature. The forming of the bar-like epitaxial feature includes in-situ doping the bar-like epitaxial feature with an n-type dopant at a first doping concentration. The forming of the conformal epitaxial feature includes in-situ doping the conformal epitaxial feature with a second doping concentration greater than the first doping concentration.

Abstract: A method for not resetting a memory while booting a computer through a hardware booting button is adapted to utilize a general hardware booting mode and increases steps that judges whether preset values are respectively stored in specific address of the memory. If it is the preset value, allowing the memory to be reset is not executed before booting sequences are executed, the booting sequences are directly processed and data stored in the memory is allowed to maintain so that it will not happen that the data stored in the memory is cleared to cause embarrassment to a user because the memory is not reset.
