Abstract
A method of forming a metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) device is provided. The method includes the following steps. First, a conductive type MOS transistor is formed on a substrate. Then, a first etching stop layer is formed over the substrate to cover conformably the conductive type MOS transistor. Thereafter, a stress layer is formed over the first etching stop layer. Then, a second etching stop layer is formed over the stress layer.
