Abstract: A p-type field effect transistor (pFET) includes a gate structure on a substrate, a channel region in the substrate directly under the gate structure, and a source/drain region adjacent to two sides of the gate structure. Preferably, the channel region includes a top portion and a bottom portion, in which a concentration of germanium in the bottom portion is lower than a concentration of germanium in the top portion and a depth of the top portion is equal to a depth of the bottom portion.

Abstract: A method for fabricating p-type field effect transistor (FET) includes the steps of first providing a substrate, forming a pad layer on the substrate, forming a well in the substrate, performing an ion implantation process to implant germanium ions into the substrate to form a channel region, and then conducting an anneal process to divide the channel region into a top portion and a bottom portion. After removing the pad layer, a gate structure is formed on the substrate and a lightly doped drain (LDD) is formed adjacent to two sides of the gate structure.
