A semiconductor device including an isolation region located in a
substrate, an NMOS device located partially over a surface of the
substrate, and a PMOS device isolated from the NMOS device by the
isolation region and located partially over the surface. A first one of
the NMOS and PMOS devices includes one of: (1) first source/drain regions
recessed within the surface; and (2) first source/drain regions extending
from the surface. A second one of the NMOS and PMOS devices includes one
of: (1) second source/drain regions recessed within the surface wherein
the first source/drain regions extend from the surface; (2) second
source/drain regions extending from the surface wherein the first
source/drain regions are recessed within the surface; and (3) second
source/drain regions substantially coplanar with the surface.
