Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device may include receiving a gated substrate comprising a substrate with a channel layer and a gate structure formed thereon, over-etching the channel layer to expose an extension region below the gate structure, epitaxially growing a halo layer on the exposed extension region using a first in-situ dopant and epitaxially growing a source or drain on the halo layer using a second in-situ dopant, wherein the first in-situ dopant and the second in-situ dopant are of opposite doping polarity. Using an opposite doping polarity may provide an energy band barrier for the semiconductor device and reduce leakage current. A corresponding apparatus is also disclosed herein.

Abstract: A semiconductor fin including a single crystalline semiconductor material is formed on a dielectric layer. A semiconductor shell including an epitaxial semiconductor material is formed on all physically exposed surfaces of the semiconductor fin by selective epitaxy, which deposits the semiconductor material only on semiconductor surfaces and not on dielectric surfaces.

Further, the semiconductor shell can advantageously alter properties of the source and drain regions, for example, by allowing incorporation of more dopants or by facilitating a metallization process.
