Abstract
A MOSFET includes a double silicided source/drain structure wherein the source/drain terminals include a silicided source/drain extension, a deep silicided source/drain region, and a doped semiconductor portion that surrounds a portion of the source/drain structure such that the suicides are isolated from the MOSFET body node. In a further aspect of the present invention, a barrier layer is formed around a gate electrode to prevent electrical shorts between a silicided source/drain extension and the gate electrode. A deep source/drain is then formed, self-aligned to sidewall spacers that are formed subsequent to the silicidation of the source/drain extension.
