A gate electrode is formed on a substrate with a gate insulating layer
therebetween. A liner is then deposited on sidewalls of the gate
electrode. Source/drain extensions are implanted into the substrate. A
first spacer is then formed on the liner. Deep source/drain are implanted
into the substrate. A second spacer is formed at the foot of the first
spacer. A tilt-angle pre-amorphization implant (PAI) is conducted to form
an amorphized layer next to the second spacer. A metal layer is then
sputtered on the amorphized layer. The metal layer reacts with the
amorphized layer to form a metal silicide layer thereto.
