Abstract
It is an object of the invention to provide a CMOS device comprising p-channel FETs having shallow source and drain regions and a method for fabricating the same. A B-doped selective epitaxial layer is grown only on an area, where the source and drain regions of the p-channel FET is to be formed. Growth of the B-doped selective epitaxial layer on an area, where the source and drain regions of a n-channel FET is to be formed, is impeded by forming a amorphous region on the area corresponding to the n-channel FET.
