A semiconductor device according to a exemplary embodiment of the present
invention includes a reverse spacer exposing a part of an epitaxial
silicon layer on a silicon substrate, a gate oxide layer on at least the
epitaxial silicon layer and a gate polysilicon layer on the gate oxide
layer and at least part of the reverse spacer, and source/drain terminals
including a first doped (shallow junction) region in the silicon
substrate at a position exterior to the exposed epitaxial silicon layer
and a second doped (deep junction) region neighboring the first doped
region. The semiconductor device can thus have an epitaxial silicon
channel of nanometer size, an ultra-shallow junction, and a deep
junction.
