Abstract
A method of fabricating a transistor. A gate structure is formed on a substrate. A spacer is formed on a sidewall of the gate structure. A first doping step is performed with the gate structure and the spacer serving as masks to form a source/drain region in the substrate. A silicide layer is formed on the source/drain region. The spacer is removed. A second doping step is performed with the gate structure serving as a mask to form a lightly doped drain region in the substrate.
