Abstract
A FinFET-type device is formed having a fin structure with vertically-oriented source/drain regions (with lightly doped extensions) and a channel region extending substantially perpendicular to the surface of the semiconductor substrate. A semiconductor stack is provided (or formed) having a first heavily doped layer and two lightly doped layer, with a channel region formed between the two lightly doped layers. The stack is etched to form fin structures (for the devices) and a gate stack is formed along the sidewalls of the channel region. A second heavily doped layer is selectively formed on the upper lightly doped layer. A portion of the first heavily doped layer and a portion of the lower lightly doped layer form a lower S/D region with a lightly doped extension region. Similarly, a portion of the second heavily doped layer and a portion of the upper lightly doped layer form an upper S/D region with a lightly doped extension region.
