Apparatuses comprising transistors including extension regions

Abstract

Methods of forming a transistor might include forming a dielectric overlying a semiconductor having a first conductivity type, forming a conductor overlying the dielectric, patterning the conductor and dielectric to define a gate stack of the transistor, forming a first extension region base and a second extension region base in the semiconductor, forming a first extension region riser overlying the first extension region base and forming a second extension region riser overlying the second extension region base, and forming a first source/drain region in the first extension region riser and forming a second source/drain region in the second extension region riser, wherein the first extension region base, the second extension region base, the first source/drain region, and the second source/drain region each have a second conductivity type different than the first conductivity type.
