Abstract
A P-type field effect transistor includes: a gate area; an insulated area, adjacent to the gate area; a source region and a drain region made by silicon germanium, respectively, adjacent to the second side of the insulated area; a channel area, adjacent to the insulated area and formed between the source region and the drain region; a conductive layer, electrically connected to the source region and the drain region, respectively; and a plurality of capping layers, connected between the conductive layer and the source/drain regions, wherein the silicon layer(s) and the silicon germanium layer(s) are stacked alternately, and of which a silicon layer contacts the source/drain silicon germanium regions, while a silicon germanium layer contacts the conductive layer. The present invention also provides a complementary metal oxide semiconductor transistor including the P-type field effect transistor mentioned above.
