Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, a channel region, a gate structure, two epitaxial structures, and two silicide structures. The channel region is disposed on the semiconductor substrate. The gate structure is disposed on the semiconductor substrate and over the channel region. The epitaxial structures are connected at opposite ends of the channel region and are disposed opposite to each other relative to the gate structure. The silicide structures respectively surround the epitaxial structures. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is also provided.
