Abstract: A method of forming a semiconductor device is provided. At least one stacked structure is provided on a substrate. A first spacer material layer, a second spacer material layer, and a third spacer material layer are sequentially formed on the substrate and cover the stacked structure. The first, second, and third spacer material layers are etched to form a tri-layer spacer structure on the sidewall of the stacked structure. The tri-layer spacer structure includes, from one side of the stacked structure, a first spacer, a second spacer, and a third spacer, and a dielectric constant of the second spacer is less than each of a dielectric constant of the first spacer and a dielectric constant of the third spacer.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor device. A gate is formed on a substrate. A spacer is formed on each sidewall of the gate. A hard mask layer is formed on the spacer. A recessed region is formed in the substrate and adjacent to the hard mask layer. An epitaxial layer is formed in the recessed region. The substrate is subjected to an ion implantation process to bombard particle defects on the hard mask layer with inert gas ions. An annealing process is performed to repair damages to the epitaxial layer caused by the ion implantation process. The hard mask layer is then removed.
