Abstract:
A semiconductor device including a cap layer and a method for forming the same are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method includes epitaxially growing a first semiconductor layer over an N-well; etching the first semiconductor layer to form a first recess; epitaxially growing a second semiconductor layer filling the first recess; etching the second semiconductor layer, the first semiconductor layer, and the N-well to form a first fin; forming a shallow trench isolation region adjacent the first fin; and forming a cap layer over the first fin, the cap layer contacting the second semiconductor layer, forming the cap layer including performing a pre-clean process to remove a native oxide from exposed surfaces of the second semiconductor layer; performing a sublimation process to produce a first precursor; and performing a deposition process wherein material from the first precursor is deposited on the second semiconductor layer to form the cap layer.
