Abstract

A method includes the following steps. A substrate is etched, forming a core structure protruding out of a plane of the substrate. Shallow trench isolation (STI) features are formed on opposite sides of the core structure. The substrate and a lower portion of the core structure are doped to form a first source/drain region with a first doping concentration. A barrier layer is grown on an upper portion of the core structure. A first spacer is formed covering the STI features and covering the lower portion of core structure. A shell is formed wrapping the upper portion of the core structure and the barrier layer. The shell and the upper portion of the core structure have different doping conductivity types. A second source/drain region is formed with a second doping concentration over the shell. The first doping concentration and the second doping concentration are different from each other.
