Abstract

A method includes forming a semiconductor fin over a substrate; forming a plurality of isolation structures adjacent to the semiconductor fin; etching the semiconductor fin to form a recess between the isolation structures; forming a first epitaxy layer in the recess; forming a second epitaxy layer over the first epitaxy layer; forming a third epitaxy layer over the second epitaxy layer, in which the first epitaxy layer has a higher germanium (Ge) concentration than the second and third epitaxy layers; etching the third epitaxy layer; and forming a dielectric layer in contact with the third epitaxy layer after etching the third epitaxy layer.
