Abstract
A vertical transistor includes a gate structure interposed between a proximate spacer doped with a first dopant-type and a distal spacer doped with the first dopant-type. The proximate spacer is formed on an upper surface of a semiconductor substrate. At least one channel region extends vertically from the proximate doping source layer to the distal doping source layer. A proximate S/D extension region is adjacent the proximate spacer and a distal S/D extension region is adjacent the distal spacer. The proximate and distal S/D extension regions include dopants that match the first dopant-type of the proximate and distal doping sources.
