Abstract

There is provided a method for manufacturing a transistor from a stack including at least one gate pattern comprising at least one flank, the method including forming at least one gate spacer over at least the flank of the gate pattern; and reducing, after a step of exposure of the stack to a temperature greater than or equal to 600° C., of a dielectric permittivity of the at least one gate spacer, the reducing including at least one ion implantation in a portion at least of a thickness of the at least one gate spacer.
