Abstract
A method includes providing a first semiconductor layer at a frontside of a structure; implanting first dopants of a first conductivity-type into the first semiconductor layer, resulting in a doped layer in the first semiconductor layer; forming a stack of semiconductor layers over the first semiconductor layer; patterning the stack of semiconductor layers and the first semiconductor layer into fins; forming an isolation structure adjacent to a lower portion of the fins; etching the stack of semiconductor layers to form a source/drain trench over the first semiconductor layer; forming a source/drain feature in the source/drain trench, wherein the source/drain feature is doped with second dopants of a second conductivity-type opposite to the first conductivity-type; forming a contact hole at a backside of the structure, wherein the contact hole exposes the doped layer in the first semiconductor layer; and forming a first contact structure in the contact hole.
