Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for fabricating MOS transistors with reduced parasitic capacitance. The present invention is based upon recognition that the parasitic capacitance of MOS transistors, such as are utilized in the manufacture of CMOS and IC devices, can be reduced by use of sidewall spacers having an optimized cross-sectional shape, in conjunction with an overlying insulator layer comprised of a low-k dielectric material.
