Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a gate stack arranged on a channel region of a semiconductor layer and a semiconductor layer arranged on an insulator layer. A crystalline source/drain region is arranged in a cavity in the insulator layer, and a spacer is arranged adjacent to the gate stack, the spacer arranged over the source/drain region. A second insulator layer is arranged on the spacer and the gate stack, and a conductive contact is arranged in the source/drain region.
