Abstract: After forming a laterally contacting pair of a semiconductor fin and a conductive strap structure overlying a deep trench capacitor embedded in a substrate and forming a gate stack straddling a body region of the semiconductor fin, source/drain regions are formed in portions the semiconductor fin located on opposite sides of the gate stack by ion implantation. Next, a metal layer is applied over the source/drain region and subsequent annealing consumes entire source/drain regions to provide fully alloyed source/drain regions. A post alloyzation ion implantation is then performed to introduce dopants into the fully alloyed source/drain regions followed by an anneal to segregate the implanted dopants at interfaces between the fully alloyed source/drain regions and the body region of the semiconductor fin.
