Abstract
A semiconductor structure and a method for forming the semiconductor structure are provided. The semiconductor structure includes a substrate and a gate structure on the substrate. The substrate contains source-drain openings on both sides of the gate structure. The semiconductor structure also includes a first stress layer formed in a source-drain opening of the source-drain openings. The first stress layer is doped with first ions. In addition, the semiconductor structure includes a protection layer over the first stress layer, and an inversion layer between the first stress layer and the protection layer. The protection layer is doped with second ions, and the inversion layer is doped with third ions. A conductivity type of the third ions is opposite to a conductivity type of the second ions.
