Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device with an embedded layer, by anisotropically etching a substrate adjacent to an already formed gate structure. A dummy layer is deposited in the previously etched region, and a second spacer is formed next to the first spacer. The dummy layer is removed, and a second anisotropic etch is performed. A semiconductor substrate is then epitaxially grown in the etched out region to form the embedded layer.
