Cmos (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) technology

Abstract

A method for forming semiconductor transistor. The method comprises providing a structure including (a) a semiconductor region, and (b) first and second dopant source regions on and in direct physical contact with the semiconductor region, wherein each region of the first and second dopant source regions comprises a dielectric material which contains dopants; causing the dopants to diffuse from the first and second dopant source regions into the semiconductor region so as to form first and second source/drain extension regions, respectively, wherein the first and second source/drain extension regions define a channel region disposed between; forming a gate dielectric region on a channel region; and forming a gate region on the gate dielectric region, wherein the gate dielectric region electrically insulates the gate region from the channel region.
