Abstract
The disclosed subject matter provides a p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor (PMOS) and fabrication method thereof. The PMOS transistor is fabricated by a method including forming a dummy gate structure on a semiconductor substrate, forming a source region and a drain region in the semiconductor substrate on both sides of the dummy gate structure, forming an intermediate layer to cover the dummy gate structure and the semiconductor substrate, and forming a multiple-level etching stop layer including at least a first etching stop layer and a second etching stop layer. The fabrication method also includes performing a UV curing process after forming each of the first and second etching stop layers.
